the main story is made up of you remembering a more interesting story from a different time, in which you are standing
around in the background for the most part
Its even more inexcusable in the sequel.
Imagine if sonic generations made all of modern sonic's stages cutscenes, then tried to do the above for the second time because "time travel nonsense."
This coupled with the cowards at Nintendo
spoiler
conjuring up a new Ganondorf because finally ending this man would make investors sad or something among other things makes TOK feel narratively pointless. It also makes breath of wild feel pointless retroactively (kinda like the new star wars trilogy without director shuffling to even blame for this mess.)
