Or I can just state my preference and hope for the best, thanks for the useless advice though :)

As a series that's prided itself on reinvention, I expect the next game to surprise us and not just be more TOTK with endless fusing and constant menu navigation during puzzles

But that same point is also why I think a real modern remake of OOT is really valuable. I hope it's real and updates the mechanics within reason why still respecting the tone and pacing that comes from more linear gameplay & level design

You talk about reinvention as if the series never had a base template as a reference, in the modern era that is now BOTW, I'd rather another TOTK than any of the older games far more depth in gameplay instead of so called intricate items that become useless outside of their dungeon.

I'm salty about Pokopia haha. I was sold on the game and preordered it as soon as preorders opened, but due to financial circumstances, I had to cut back on my gaming expenses, and since Resident Evil 9 and Fatal Frame 2 are coming out soon too, I decided to cut Pokopia out after a lot of consideration. Then THE VERY NEXT DAY, the internet, which has been quiet about Pokopia for months, started spamming articles and posts day after day about how Pokopia is better than sex actually.
Yes I could preorder it again and cut out something else, but now I don't wanna, I hold grudges for silly things lol

February is stacked leading to a knock on effect for March.

I hope it's good, but I don't know if I'll have the patience to play a FromSoftware game.
