Let's start a first ever, "What are you playing this weekend?".
I am still completely enthralled by The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. I am about 50-60 hours in, and still have lots of explore. I don't want to mention anything that might be a spoiler, but I think I should be around 60% done with the story. I am on media blackout about the game, so I don't actually know how long it actually it is, but this is what it seems like. Of course, if I go by total amount of Shrines, or Koroks, I am probably just 10-20% of the total.
All my other games are on pause, probably not going to resume anything else until I have finished Zelda.
I'm about 20 hours in, in Zelda TotK. It's my first proper Zelda game, not counting what little OoT I played via emulator a long back.
The game is stunning, so playable and atmospheric. It's a true adventure game.
I've dropped it for a bit to play D4, but can't wait to get back to Hyrule.
Welcome to the world of Zelda! It truly is a masterpiece.
If you start with TotK, it may be difficult to go back to BotW, but if you do play it later, I would love to hear your feedback.
If you want to play Zelda games, you can try the older ones through different NSO apps, SNES, Gameboy etc. but they are all very different from TotK / BotW, and not everyone enjoys older games.
I've dabbled a bit with OoT, TP and some other ones too, always found the games very intriguing with no lack of quality.
Other games / things took priority so I never got far enough with any of them to actually say I've played a Zelda game.
