What did you hate about it? That series is great for the people it clicks with and fans are very vocal about it, so I totally understand.
I went the opposite direction in that it took Bloodborne for the series to click with me. The other games (this was pre DS3) didn’t resonate until after Bloodborne.
My first was the original game on NES.
I don’t hate Breath of the Wild (or Tears) but I don’t think the series needed to go in that direction.
