- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I 100%ed the game and as I was reading your review I was like "Wait, something's off... this isn't the game I played on PS5..."
Then I saw:
"A huge caveat: I purchased this through the switch store, and it should have absolutely not had a switch release!"
Oh... yeah... Oh no. Now it makes sense. Yeah, the game was never intended for the Switch and compromises were made.
The first 4k video of gameplay I saw blew my mind lol. You can actually see depth and aren't confused squinting at a low res model trying to figure out what you're looking at from a small distance. I was shocked when we first played BOTW and it's problems running properly (lots of lag for a game made for the system), this title made me realize the switch is just dead to me now.
Yeah, I was about to say the game was surprisingly great. Seeing the op played it on the switch, I can understand the subpar experience.
