Oh man I loved the underworld. One of the very first things I did in that game was trying to get to all the light roots. Skipped past most of the monsters and treasures, just grinding the travel.
This is what I did. I didn’t even come close to getting 100% of the collectibles, but I really enjoyed my experience with TOTK. I love both for what they are. BOTW to me was a very peaceful and moving experience once I got into it. I hated it at first and hate played through some of the main story then I said fuck it I’ll just get all of the towers and open up the whole map. In doing that I kind of fell in love with the game. The different areas, the scenery, the freedom, the music, it was a great game.
TOTK didn’t have that same emotion from the ambience, but I enjoyed the story and crafting. It did feel like it was missing the uniqueness that I loved in BOTW, but overall it was a good experience. I’d love a similar style game, but in a new version of Hyrule.
The underworld on TOTK just burnt me out. There’s so much of it and it’s all so samey and bleak, like if all of Dark Souls was Blighttown.
I took a break of about a year before going back to polish off the story.
