>>714482469That's not what I said and you know damn well it isn't. The way temperatures for various objects interact and the depth of mechanics based on that just isn't in anything but purely experimental indie game jams nobody knows shit about. Other games simply didn't do all the temp shit BotW did, and very few have since it came out, either. The way it affects wind, altitude having granular effect on temp as well as lighting playing a role on heat with "sun showers" as a variable for more intense/hotter sunlight, temp being tied to several types of states for Link and environmental objects, the way several of these variables stack and interact.
Even if it's not huge on computational power, the temp system for the game is really impressive. Saying it's not is like saying Greg Walsh's fast inverse square root isn't impressive.
