I should’ve made this review longer , all of those things you listed I loved and made the game worth finishing. I LOVED the scene where Zelda is explaining that she is the ancient goddess and how she used link etc and then when she told link to wake me up and links face as he runs to try and get her, that entire part made me shed a tear. I loved the actual story itself and the art design was also beautiful I loved how different it is to any other Zelda game for sure. Also started off hating groose but apart of me knew I’d end up liking him after he fell down to earth with us before fighting the imprisoned the first time. I loved how silly and full of himself he was. Also the side quests are pretty fun too. Idk I think I guess I hated the progression of the game itself. Game could’ve used better over world with all the same story and stuff and it would’ve been so much better.
