I wish you the best.
Also, allot more than HLTB recommends unless you decide to mainline the story with no distractions.
I’ve found that the quest tools are really useful to combat memory issues, but not overwhelming. They let you grab the 15 minutes you have to really focus on what you’re doing if you’d like. They keep all the information you need (and even cut down the information you don’t.) And it’s always there for you to come back to if you decide something else is more fun.
I haven’t beaten the game yet, so can’t say one way or another about the final boss of this one, but I’ve heard it’s better than most.
I’ve got every other Zelda game that’s not a weird CDI game (or Zelda II, though I may go back to that one) and have made it about half way through a full play through, more if you count games I played a long while back.
This series is great. I’m really curious to hear what someone else doing similar thinks about the progression of the series from way back?
Is "Quest tools" something available in the game itself, or is that something different entirely?
And it's a bit hard for me to talk about series progression because I haven't played in chronological order. I did A link to the Past, the original NES, then Twilight Princess(wii), BotW, then A link between worlds(3ds), ocarina of time(switch emulation), and am currently having a difficult time getting into Majoras Mask(3ds remaster).
I don't know if it's the 3ds format or the game itself that's giving me trouble getting into it. I couldn't put Ocarina of Time down and it's throwing me off with MM. i figured it might have been just going straight from one to the other so I told myself I'd beat Pokémon X and then Fire Emblem Fates(going through other series generations I skipped out on), and try again. X is down and FE:F is underway, so I'll find out eventually.
I can say while I enjoyed the shrines of BotW - I'd have rather had fewer yet more detailed and larger dungeons instead. I never really felt lost in BotW. I wasn't a big fan of the Fire Emblem style weapon durability, nor the crafting - But Star Ocean 2 really is the only game I've truly enjoyed crafting.
I wouldn't say that the series has progressed to Mainstream like games like Call of Duty did where the formula has gotten bland and they try to appeal more to new players than veterans. But it definitely doesn't have the same heart as the original or ALttP, or even Ocarina of Time.
~Elder Scrolls~ edit Elden Ring was, to me, a fantastic Zelda game. Though I have yet to beat that as well.
I hope my incoherent ramblings made some sense of an answer to your question.
