I'm pre-mature in this topic since I'm close to the final boss in Tears of the Kingdom but have not gotten there yet. I of course won't vote yet.
The reasons I'm leaning towards Breath of the Wild are...

  • Newness factor. Tears of the Kingdom adds a lot (it's not DLC like some detractors say), but it obviously doesn't have the originality Breath of the Wild did.
  • I preferred the Great Plateau opening with the King compared to the islands (after the cool opening walking/cutscenes with Zelda and Ganondorf showing up).
  • Call me a scrub/casual all you want, but Breath of the Wild is more forgiving in terms of difficulty. When a game has no difficulty settings, I tend to prefer a similar game that's easier. Since the games are so open-ended, there will be some who will tell me Tears of the Kingdom is an easier game. @SvennoJ seems to think so.
