I just beat the final boss of TotK and felt like there was a disconnect. I feel like BotW had more back story upfront for characters.

I couldn't care less about the story of a zelda game. Dungeons, combat, and general gameplay are what I play for.

In that regard, totk blows botw away and it's not even close. Personally, I thought botw was a good game, but not great - definitely nowhere near as good as people were saying.

Totk is an absolute masterpiece tho. The continuation of the sandbox development, changes to weapon and fusing, etc were great. Exploration and traversal with zonai parts is loads of fun. Hell, the last boss fight was a great moment as well - definitely much more polished than the end of botw.

I do wish dungeons were still a bit more dungeon like, and performance, while a marvel for it's hardware, is really held back by the switch. There are definitely things to improve on for the next game

Overall tho, totk makes botw feel unfinished imo

Yeah, story in a Zelda game is like story in a porno.

It's expected to be there, but it's not important.
