Elden Ring. Hands down.
In Elden ring I explored every fucking inch of the world hoping to see something new.
This is, imo, the best game ever made.
People say that the breath in the wild rewarded exploration but the game felt soullless and empty to me. Oh, another fucking Kurok seed, oh great, a fucking puzzle. I never came across anything interesting.
In ER I was obsessed with the lore, loved the combat, I felt like there was something new around every corner I wanted to see. It was fucking magical.
I couldn't go back to BotW after Elden Ring.
In both games you have a vast world to explore. You see something in the distance, and it turns out it's actually a place you can go to, which is such a cool feeling. You're rewarded for every path you go down.
In Elden Ring you're rewarded with some weird new scroll or a weapon that even if you won't use it, you can totally see why it's unique and cool in its own way.
But in Breath of the Wild you're rewarded with a shrine that gives you nothing, or with another fucking Korok seed. And also while you were exploring your weapon broke.
I couldn't even finish botw. I found it monotonous and the world empty.
