I'm disappointed in the ganon fight. Not from a gameplay perspective (although it's nowhere near TP's level), but the design of the first phase in particular.
As a preface to this rant, I love magitech. I love when magic and technology are combined to something greater than either alone. I think of magic as another force in the universe, and should be used for technology like any other. It sickens me how often the two are shunted into opposite corners, or their joining is meant to seem unnatural. I was already of the opinion that the main reason why the battle 100 years before BotW was lost on the Hylian side was they didn't spend enough time understanding the Guardian's operations and programming. I mean, what did you expect from antivirus software 10 000 years out of date? But, because I hold to a theory that the Gerudo revered the desert artifacts dating to the same period, I was expecting Ganon to have taken control by better understanding the tech than the Hylians. I get there, and I see a haphazard mongrel of discarded parts. How bad were the Hylians to have their tech taken by this?
It feels too much like the devs wanted all the major tech to be evil, an obstacle to be surmounted by magic. Not only is this aggravating to me personally, but Zelda used to be a great example of working magitech.
