I bought Zelda TotK right after release for Switch 1, just to be presented with a bright, blurry game with loading screens that I, personally, couldn’t live with. I retired it after about an hour, uninstalled it from my console and sold the game on eBay.
Years later, the Switch 2 released and I was hyped. Bought it on release day and had the urge to give TotK another go. This was the start of something beautiful.
This game is an absolute blast. I wasn’t as hooked since Elden Ring. The map design, the sheer possibilities, the love for detail, the way the game guides you in the right direction: it’s absolutely fantastic.
This game is a master piece, and in the Switch 2, the game feels the way it should have felt on the day it released.
I can not recommend this enough.

Except for that it isn’t. The map has 3 layers now, and what was formerly BotW has been filled with life, adventure, story, and things to explore.

The sky islands aren’t very interesting, but it certainly adds some variety. The Depths is pretty cool though.

Look man totk is great and all but they really did recycle the map.
