Nintendo Switch Game Recommendations?

Played about an hour and a half, exploring everywhere and taking it slow drinking in the scenery. But so far there’s enough to make it familiar but still a new experience. Loving it.

very early on you use ultra hand to reunite a korok with his buddy. poor guy didn't seem impressed when I accidentally stuck him to the raft I made :D

feels strange in that seeing rocks that are obviously destructible I found myself looking for the bombs. Have a lot to unlearn
 
I'm probably 15 hours into it by now. It's such an incredible experience.
I've gotten around 18 shrines and about as many korok seeds, and I've found 3 of the tears.
But I got completely sidetracked from the main story so I feel like I should probably get back to doing that, and then I can explore around the ground and build up my inventory again because i'm running low on some important items for exploration.

I'd say the graphics are extremely impressive for the Switch. It looks way better than BOTW - resolution, framerate, textures, art quality, draw distance, video cutscenes, the works. However it's still held back severely by being on the Switch. Given just how absurdly ambitious the game is, it feels like it should look at least as good as Elden Ring or Spider-Man.

Still whatever. I'm gonna be doing nothing but playing this for the next few months I reckon.

I managed to pick up an el cheapo copy of BOTW secondhand. So let's see what the fuss is about :p

Please don't forget...when you find a Korok by lifting a rock, you have to drop the rock back onto his head

I've noticed a few different puzzle types when locating Koroks. I imagine some of the 'transport Korok A to friend Korok B' will get quite challenging. I've already accidently drowned a Korok
 
I'm not sure I like the current direction where a lot of the game seems to be about building stuff out of parts. I just want to play a game using weapons, gear and skills. The first one was amazing but this seems more like a Minecraft game. Fiddling and making stuff might get tedious.

Can't say I'm too keen either on the building part in terms of the elaborate devices and vehicles that people seem to be building, as fascinating as it may be. But from what I have read the game doesn't force you to build if you don't want to. I'm around 20 hours in and easily getting by with very basic builds. Ultrahand is fiddly but you get the hang of it very quickly and Fuse is easy to use, just a matter of experimenting on what works for you I guess.

There is an ability you can get that helps with the building part
