I'm not convinced I like it.
I feel (2 'divine beasts' in):
* It's very repetitive.
* The boss dungeons are unrewarding.
* The shrine dungeons are novel, but get tiresome quickly.
* As you can pretty much do everything off the bat, there's no "oh a boulder, can't move it, better come back later" element to the game. (This is my biggest gripe I think, a big part of the Zelda games was doing a dungeon and getting a gimmick to unlock new places).
* Weapon durability is an annoyance as there's no feedback of how much weapon there is left until the end.
* As my gear improves, I don't feel any stronger.
* Cooking could be 10x easier.
But I seem to be the odd one out thinking this, so maybe I just have bad taste.
