Seems like your post may be satirical, but I honestly feel this way. The Switch was my first Nintendo home console, and I bought it primarily to play BotW. I really did like it, but I would give it around an 8.5-9. There were some moments that were truly magical, but overall, I didn’t understand the insane and darn-near unprecedented amount of praise it received. Before I played, people told me I didn’t need to have played previous Zelda games to love BotW, but I think you kind of do for nostalgia and to fully appreciate it.
