Which is better, Genshin or BOTW?

Neither Genshin Impact nor The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (BOTW) is objectively "better"—they're different games appealing to different preferences, with BOTW focusing on minimalist, physics-driven exploration and puzzles with a single hero, while Genshin offers a deep, anime-style action RPG with team-based elemental combat, extensive character collection, and live-service updates. BOTW shines in freedom and organic discovery, whereas Genshin excels with its rich story, flashy combat, and continuous content, but it's also a gacha game, which can feel grindy.
