1- The armor system completely negates the climate challenges and all systems related to it. Cold in botw is only a problem while you are on the great plateau, because once you get the armor on the ice peak with the old man, it is solved forever. In any snow area later, you dont have any reason to care or fear the lower temperatures, just go to the menu and equip the armor and its done. (..)

This isn’t true. And made me stop reading any further.

The initial cold armor isn’t adequate enough for the colder areas in the game. You’ll suffer damage just like if you wouldn’t wear it at all if you only wear the cold resistant shirt you get on the Plateau in parts like the top of Mount Lanayru. You’ll need cold resistant food or potions, get better cold resistant armor, or equip combinations of items that work against the cold like the flame swords. There’s multiple levels of cold resistance suitable for different environments. The same goes for heat resistant, though that also has a secondary hazard; flame resistance.

Anyway Breath of the Wild is great, wouldn’t change much, I just hope the new game will mold the old dungeon style back into it some more. The shrines and the divine beasts were fine for what they were, but the game needed some bigger dungeons with unique styles and themes and bosses.
