I don’t yet have any interest in the switch. When I finish playing through the twilight princess remake for wiiu I plan on picking up breath of the wild for the wiiu.

Hey, how’s that going? How much have ya played and how do ya like it?

Progress in Twilight Princess is slow since I only play it when my dad is over, but the last time I played it I had just beaten the temple of time and I think I have to go to the sky next. I absolutely love it but I’m only doing the main quest so there’s huge areas of the overworld I haven’t even been to because I’m just not somebody that likes to do sidequests.

Sticking to the main quest makes TP more enjoyable -IN MY OPINION- (I’m sure a certain someone will still pop in to argue this 😉 ).

If that “certain someone” is me, being that I’m big on Zelda, whether someone is completionist or otherwise is up to them.

However, I will say this: Breath of the Wild’s storyline is almost a sidequest in and of itself, given that almost everything in the game is entirely optional. Yes, you can do the “Main Quests”, but that’s not really the point of the game. Whereas Twilight Princess will take you on a linear path through the story, Breath of the Wild will most certainly not, and you will have to deliberately avoid things in the game to complete the main story, which will then only run you a couple dozen hours instead of a hundred or more.

Suffice it to say, whether you do only the main storyline in previous 3D Zeldas is up to you, but in Breath of the Wild I would strongly advise against it. I would bet you real money you’ll think the game to be highly overrated if you do it that way.
