Also not sure how you missed it but a lot of fans have shown dissatisfaction about this current formula. Arlo is just adding to the already current situation.

I didn't miss it. I just think it's confirmation bias. You're seeing a lot of very vocal people that claim to be fans. Obviously the fans that don't have any complaints are quieter.

I've played almost all the big Zelda titles and your comment about the puzzles just doesn't make any sense. Each game uses the various game mechanics as an integral part of the puzzles. Obviously those will be different from game to game. What reasonable complaint is there to be made there?

I was actually excited that the dungeons in TOTK (especially the gerudo dungeon) felt more like the dungeons in A Link To The Past. But that doesn't mean I'd be interested in just redoing old ideas for the new games. I want them to keep trying new things, pushing boundaries, and annoying the vocal Internet gaming police.
