Is Breath of the Wild really that good?

Yes, It's really, REALLY good.  

Now, IMO Witcher 3, Skyrim, Dragon Age Inquesition were all better, but i prefer the hardcore RPG elements (and your looking at 3 GOTY winners there).  Also Horizon Zero Dawn is close.

BOTW will likely win GOTY, and its deserving.
