I agree. Even though I enjoy collecting amiibo (I'm not even a big collector, I only have 7), having to buy one just so I could have the green tunic from the start of the game kind of sucked. Edit: At least Nintendo learned with Odyssey, so hopefully the next Zelda won't lock costumes exclusively behind amiibo again. |
I think it's due to BOTW originally being only a Wii U game as that platform wasn't the best at accommodating dlc with its storage options plus amiibos were the main money maker after the 3DS through out that period where as Switch has better options so the games built for the latter make better use of DLC as an option as seen in SMO.
I'm pretty sure the next Zelda game is going to make use of DLC in a samilar way as SMO, I actually surprised they never released the amiibo content as paid dlc.
