They're OP in everything. Any game where you can just put everything into str/vig/end and only use the biggest weapon you can find, it always ends up being a top tier build. There's nothing more powerful than just being unkillable and doing all your damage at once.

edit- I'll say it's usually best to never go below "standard issue movement", but even that ends up being fine sometimes, especially if you wanna get fancy and use a shield

When I upgraded my greatsword it turned into a huge pair of scissors, with a heavy attack that just snips enemies over and over, and I hope this is good enough to carry me to the end of the game because it doesn't get much better than that

look, making round planets would have required someone to do some math at some point, it's not reasonable to expect that with the kind of budgets bethesda is working with

there's something beautiful about inhabiting the pov of something that believes it is exploring the mysteries of the universe but just farting around one of the boring middleground areas of the vastt spectrum of size and forces that exist. oooo rocks.

from that explanation it sounds more like if you walked halfway across Hyrule and then hit an invisible barrier and the game told you to fast travel over to the other half of Hyrule

No it would be like waking from one edge of hyrule to the other edge of hyrule and then needing to go get your horse to generate a new hyrule.

I legit can't play it despite dropping the settings to medium or even lower. It's very likely the game needed that month more of dev time to fix the last act.
