I think that the triumph of the new Zelda game is that every player is going to have their own story for why they love it. Here is mine:

It has been a long, long trek up the mountain. A bad guy at the top has some things that Link needs to beat another bad guy and save Zelda.

This particular mountain has been difficult to climb because of ceaseless rain, but Link perseveres and finds the bad guy.

He takes a selfie with the bad guy (quest) and then decides whether to sneak and get the item or get down to business.

While making this decision, a fox, startled by Link's approach, scampers and the bad guy turns. Business it is.

I think I'm pretty good at Zelda games, but I'm woefully underskilled and Link is underequipped for this fight.

One swing of the bad guy's sword takes 6.5 hearts out of my 7; one swing of my best sword does 2.5% of his health bar.

Things are looking bad for Link, but he has a secret: mushrooms. Lots and lots of mushrooms.

While exploring Hyrule's plains and forests Link has saved more mushrooms than Mario, and before ascending the mountain, he cooked them.

Mushrooms on a stick. Mushrooms in butter. Mushrooms with octopus leg (didn't work so well). Mushrooms, apple, and acorn.

The fight becomes a brutal war of attrition. The bad guy swipes, Link manages a weak riposte, and then eats more mushrooms.

I lose this fight. Over, and over, and over again. But I will not walk down the mountain in defeat.
