I haven't playing BoTW, but I'm almost done ToTK. Been slowly progressing through the game, since it first came out. To be honest, I barely build anything. I just run everywhere I go. The story isn't mind blowing, but it's pretty chill. I like finding new years around the map, to unlock new chapters of the story-line. I think my biggest negative of the game, which was also present in BoTW, is the weapon breaking system. I'm just not a fan of that at all.
