It basically is DLC, for BOTW (and well worth it)
i read it was almost a complete rewrite. they had to recreate all the objects with valid properties for all the new physics.
which makes me even more astonished they dont milk it. maybe im just used to agencies beating dead horses.
e. mentioned a little here: https://www.gamedeveloper.com/programming/how-nintendo-did-the-impossible-with-tears-of-the-kingdom-s-physics-system
The devs said at one point that some of the ideas in ToTK were supposed to be DLC at one point.
That's it. That's all some people are processing. "Oh it's just DLC." Facts don't matter. It doesn't matter that the reason it wasn't DLC was that they kept expanding on the ideas. It doesn't matter that the final product was a full game. "But they reused the map!!!!!! 😡😡😡😡"
The "it's just DLC lol" nonsense will persist until the end of time.
TOTK shares more code with Nintendo Switch Sports than it does with BOTW
