It’s pretty clear that it took a lot of inspiration from the Assassins Creed games. If BoTW was released under any other publisher, it would be seen as a derivative release.
Well, yeah. Towers to climb to expand the view of the map, hundreds of collectibles with relatively little reward, primarily fetch quest side missions with very little to compel the player in terms of story or character in said side missions. It’s a good game, but it is hardly a reinvention of the genre like many have claimed.
