Replaying BOTW the fourth time and jeez, this game never gets old, what a masterpiece. I'm truly afraid BOTW 2 can't meet that level of quality. Much of BOTW enjoyment comes from your journey discovering Hyrule and how can you interact with that world
If BOTW 2 takes place in the exact same realm I think I'll be left a bit underwhelmed because at this point I think I have covered every possible point of the map. The best for BOTW 2 is to be placed in a completely different Kingdom, with feel in common to Hyrule then you discovery journey can happen again like in a blank page
