Yes. Everything yes.

Yep. Never played a single Zelda game before, but was still one of my greatest gaming experience ever

Yes, no question about it. Got me back into Zelda and went straight up into my top 10 games of all time.

Its my game of this generation.

I loved it, except for having to constantly do stuff with the weapons.

No, when they first shown tidbits of it, I was really excited about potential avenues they could take and improve on usual 3D Zelda formula.

Sadly in the end, for me at least, it felt like a descent prototype for something that potentially could be much, much better in some future iteration, but ultimately, in current state, fails on so many accounts.

I played it on day one and avoided the reviews. It lives up to the hype for me but if I'd waited, it probably wouldn't have.

Absolutely. It's probably the game that got me hooked up the most. I played for about 120 hours in just two weeks. Whenever I was not playing, I was often thinking of what I would do next. Every step I took. Every mountain I climbed. Every shrine I beat. Every mistery I encountered. Every village I visited. Every monster I slayed. Everything felt so meaningful to me. Because all of it was my choice. I decided where to go. I decided what to do. I decided how I would I solve every problem I faced. Breath of the Wild is the proof that "the journey is more important than arriving to the destination". Because it was my journey. I did it my way. Entirely my way. And I had a blast. Not many games can claim that...

It lived way up and above the hype I had for it before it came out. I truly think this is one of the best games ever made.

It's crazy to think that it is a game that I still play every now and then. The world is just something that I want to visit often. And those damned koroks seeds are still out there. I think this game really propelled the Switch in its first year too, what an excellent launch title. The trailer from the january presentation is again, also something that I revisit every now and then. It's just that good.

Your hands were broken/injured?

Hell no. I think it's vastly inferior to many other open world games that came before it and it removed basically every Zelda aspect. I genuinely dislike it greatly.
