I agree, the fact that Zelda gives you very few infos, or only riddles to get you going adds the fun of figuring things for yourself.
It's not just a dumb and easy chore. (some missions were though, but it was a minority). Yes some missions are hard to figure out, but you just leave them aside, and go back to them later, maybe the solution will present itself, or you'll know more about the game so you will be able to find the solution. At the moment, I never had to look up online to find any solution. But I probably will at one point.
I can't even play open world games anymore because it's such a drag
-go there, gives you a big arrow to follow
-take that, the thing you need to take is glowing
-go back, gives you a big arrow again to follow
That's not gaming at all.
