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.

Another pet peeve of mine that didn’t get mentioned is that you hold B to run on land, but X to swim faster in water. What’s up with that?

What? That's so bizarre. I switched the buttons for Jump and Dash in the options Day 1 in both BotW and TotK, so the X button is the "go fast"-button both on land and in water for me. I'm more confused why the swim button doesn't get swapped as well if that's the case.
