I enjoyed both of those Zelda immensely and I would like another game similar to them. I’m thinking about Marvel’s Spider-man, but would love to hear more options.
Yeah Elden Ring is unorthodox as an answer but honestly it was the only game since BOTW that gave me that feeling of freedom and wonder. I think the novelty in the world being so contrasting in its style and genre, and of course the difficulty in combat, make it just as satisfying if not more so. I would say Zelda is a better game for exploration but Elden Ring surpasses in so much, that they are pretty much equals.
Then there’s Fenyx rising as people have said.
Outer Wilds I think isn’t similar much but it’s just one of those games you MUST play. I still can’t stop thinking about it since I finished, and now must live vicariously through others experiencing it for the first time. Play it. Play. It.
Mario Odyssey? Calm tone, open-ish world
I’m pretty bad with souls, I tried Elden Ring though, but it just makes me confirm how bad I’m with difficult games… 😅
Haven’t thought about Mario Odyssey, at the time I saw a full walkthrough but never get to really play it.
Good indie title that has some lite RPG elements, climb anything, glide and is super cozy is lil’gator game. It’s also currently on sale for 40% off. You can also check out Immortals Fenyx Rising. It’s listed as Deck playable though I admittedly haven’t tested that one myself on SD.
I have both of them on the switch! I really like Immortals Fenyx Rising and it’s a good option I didn’t think about!
my best choice is Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, really good RPG
I played it on switch, it’s a great game. I tried to get back into it to play the dlcs but I’m unable to get used to the controls again… 😅
