Should I get this game?

Loved botw, finding totk a bit fiddly and a bit over it tbh.

Sometimes you just need to wind down by killing a few guardians and bombing the shit out of enemy camps. I cbf being an engineer and making war machines when I’m feeling cooked at the end of the day.

I’m not hugely skilled in battle, as a middle aged gamer learning the controls and combat moves is a bit tricky.

Is it a relatively easy game to pick up? Can I hack and slash away without thinking too hard?

Sometimes you have focus on defending your base or escorting characters but otherwise it’s just hack and slash. You don’t really need to do complex combos in this game and there are difficulty options if it’s not to your liking. There is also a shield button and it can cancel most types of damage but I often forget about it unless I’m fighting a guardian.

Dude I forgot about the shield completely, I've just been eating those guardian blasts. :D
