Disclaimer- I have not played the actual game yet.

TOTK so far seems very overwhelming.

Though I had a learning curve with BOTW at the beginning, I was still able to complete it eventually.

But some things in TOTK seem very difficult so far- especially for someone clumsy like myself.

How do you compare the difficulty of TOTK with that of BOTW?

I was able to pass (and complete) BOTW without any kind of cheats. But BOTW seems to be the exception rather than the norm. I bypassed Owlan's test on Skyward Sword. I had to use cheats to even get far on Wind Waker. And I used cheats for OOT the second time around- though the first time (a very long time ago) I only used them to defeat the final boss. Yes, that clumsy I am.
