Its been a while since I played botw and totk, I want to get into similar open world games with good combat systems, any recommendations?

As for platforms, I need games that aren't too intensive, my PCs are kinda weak and my consoles are a switch and an emulator that does up to GameCube/ps2

This question proves how stupid I am lol

In all honesty, genshin impact is a pretty reasonable facsimile of that sort of game. It's really grown into its own, and it's really fun and absolutely massive

That said, I'd only advise it if you are 100% confident you won't engage in any of the gacha systems -- you can play and enjoy the game with the free characters the game gives you, but once you start engaging with the gacha that can be a really dangerous slippery slope. If that's something that you could fall prey to, I wouldn't recommend it. But if you think you can play it without investing any money (or, really, more money than you can afford, I don't know your financial situation) it's actually a really great time, and the story's only gotten better as it's gone on. There's definitely some stipulations with it, but it's worth experiencing if you feel like those are acceptable

Played genshin before, its an OK game but especially as f2p it's way to grindy,

No idea what I was expecting lol

that's totally fair. I think you can do most of the story and exploration stuff without grinding much but if even that is too much grinding it's probably not worth the effort. Hope you find what you're looking for!

Its more the adventure level system. Halted most of my gameplay. That and have you seen the genshin file size? No game is worth that big a file
