Funny you mention God of War, I gave up on that despite loving all the ones before it. The latest one just can't hold my attention. And now the same is happening with Zelda :/ Yeah it could very well be front loaded based on previous success of BotW. My wife and kids can't get into TotK either, while all of them played and finished BotW. We had to fight for the Switch at the time! Currently I like the TotK controller more than the game itself.

Well, I'm still to play TotK soon, so I'm yet to know that for myself, but I could barely put GoW Raganarok aside when I started playing it, like pretty much all the other ones before it.

BotW was the same after some time, I stopped playing it for around 3 months once I got to the main part of the world, but when I got back to it I really hardly put it down, so I'm expecting the same from TotK.

Haven't started on TotK yet. Probably won't get around to it until later this summer. But yeah BotW is the kind of game it feels like I could almost play forever haha. It's easily the biggest game I've ever played, and I can spend hours exploring just a small piece of the map with barely even advancing (like knocking out shrines). I expect TotK will be like that but with even more to do. When I play BotW hours pass by and it is hard to put down. The first week I played it I put 50 hours into the game which is definitely the most I've ever played a game in a week, hell the vast majority of games would be over by that time, and yet I was still early on in my adventure in BotW.

Back in 2020 I'd hear how people play AC to relax as just like a regular part of their day. AC is too like non-competitive for me, I want some action and interest in my games. For me that's what BotW is like. I can play it for hours, exploring the huge world and searching for new things and fighting enemies just to relax. I fear how much of my time and for how many months TotK is gonna take over of my life once I start it haha. I'm gonna have to limit my play sessions to a couple hours at a time.
