I know it's long, but this is a pretty well thought out critique of Tears of the Kingdom - giving a lot of thought into what the game got right, what it got wrong, how/why the wrong parts were wrong, as well as how they could have been better.

When you still thought it was true did you find yourself disappointed by it?

I actually thought about how cruel Nintendo is to this specific Zelda; I think she must be the most traumatized of them all? First she can't turn on her powers, then she is stuck with Ganon for 100 years in limbo, then a few years of happiness, then all of TOTK happens, where she endures multiple 10000 years as a dragon with a sword stuck in the head. I was relieved when she was turned back.

When she said that at the end of the Dragon Tears quest, I thought for sure it meant her quest wasn’t done yet, and I had to seek her out to figure out how to save Zelda. I didn’t yet have Mineru at this point, which is apparently the trigger that makes Impa actually spawn in Kakariko - so I spent quite a bit of time searching for her.

Ah! I was searching for Impa and I was surprised that Paya didn't even mention her whereabouts. I didn't check after Mineru; I guess, I'll start TOTK one more time for the Impa-dialog.
