    That's kind of my point. in BOTW and TOTK, the story is thin on the ground.

    Literally. It's thin, and it's on the ground.

    I've watched streamers who played BOTW first then play earlier games, and reacted with surprise at how much lore was in them.

    I don't see it failing, sheer force of brand recognition will fill theaters. I'm just not sure they'll get anything good done.

    I mean, that game contains the in-universe creation myth, the origin story of the series' main villain, the establishment of four recurring in-universe races of people, and a host of ideas they're still riffing on to this day...but this is Lemmy, no non-existent homoerotica will be left uninvented.
