Coming from pen&paper RPGs I can imagine all sort of crazy stuff. Honestly, I find both BotW and Skyrim to be very limited games, each in its own way, but I find Skyrim, due to it being RPG, to have better replayability...and much more content, while we're at it. Ultimately, IMO, they are just decent games, and that's about it.

This might not be adding much to the conversation, but I put Skyrim and Breath of the Wild at my #2 and #3 slots, respectively. No reason we can't enjoy both, they don't have to be in direct opposition of one another. 

Indeed, they are not in direct opposition, but I often see folks comparing them - which is quite silly, they might both be designed as open world game, but ultimately fall into different genres and since BotW exploded and got its mainstream cult following (not unlike Skyrim so many years before), it is very common to see such comparisons.

But ultimately, they are very different games (though both designed for mainstream appeal), each with its own sets of freedoms and game mechanisms, and IMO both decent games, but also quite limited.
