I had around 150 by the time I completed the game.

Bonus question: what percentage completion do you have?

I’m sitting on 50.5% right now.

    I mean…you’re still in the opening of the game. The tutorials stop once you get into the meat of things. Maybe I’m just spoiled by having played Skyward Sword with its extremely pervasive tutorials, but these aren’t even something I noticed in TotK.

    You keep mentioning how sloppy it is. What apart from the tutorial issue do you find sloppy? I’d like to understand because the prevailing take on the game is that it is BotW but bigger and better in basically every way. I’m about 120 hours in and I tend to agree pretty strongly with that sentiment.

      Like I said, breath of the wild taught me all of the same things without popping up an unskippable text cloud every 5 minutes. The starting area of BOTW didn’t basically fall apart if you happen to not follow the intended circuit around the starting area like TOTK does (I was so confused because I went to the shrines in a scattershot order and so all the linearly designed building tutorials came in the wrong order)

      Honestly the only good part so far has been the building tutorials because they let you just figure shit out on your own, unfortunately like I said they’re almost incoherent if you go to them in the wrong order like I happened to.

      Somehow mechanically this game feels like it’s the less refined game that would later get made into something polished and refined like BOTW despite this one being made taking 6 years and recycling the same map. It feels like a very sophisticated rom hack. Lacking all the exploration I wanted from this type of game. I really am not a fan.
