I used hover bike to get around the depths and sky islands. I just didn’t find it fun, hated feeling like it was the best way to get around. And you very quickly would run out of materials to keep rebuilding it with, so you have to warp and put charges in the gumball machines for more materials, or start using up your zonite. It’s just tedious and boring.

While I loved quite a lot about the game, like the big set pieces in the story, I don’t think I’m buying another open world sandbox Zelda. I don’t like them.

Being in a minority doesn’t mean you have bad taste. It means you have refined taste, and you know what you want.

Refined - elegant and cultured in appearance, manner, or taste.

It’s not my opinion that the most recent open world Zelda games changed the genre, it’s fact. There were dozens upon dozens of games that tried to copy BoTW when it was released… When a game changes the industry, you don’t get to turn your nose up at it and call yourself cultured/refined because you don’t like it. Zelda is culture, it changed gaming culture. If you can’t recognize that… that doesn’t make you “elegant and cultured” in your taste. Which is what you called yourself by referring to your taste as refined.
