I can only afford the time to play one of them, which one should I play?

Many YouTubers seem to prefer BotW. But most reviews say TotK improves nearly everything.

I prefer easier combat and less complexity. Is there one that would be more enjoyable for me?

    BOTW. It is truly a masterpiece

    TOTK has a lot of not-so-fun time consuming elements, worse combat and is overall more bland

    Also TOTK is very, very, very gimmicky

      TOTK has more creative combat, such as my kid fusing a bomb barrel to a shield, which blows up enemies when they attack. Other than that, the combat feels very similar to BOTW, and there’s new enemy types (and I think more variety?).

      It’s certainly gimmicky, and I think the puzzles are easier, though neither has particularly great puzzles. I personally think TOTK is the better sandbox game, while BOTW is a little better Zelda game, but they’re both kinda crappy Zelda games IMO.
