The weapon break mechanic in Breath of the Wild is so dumb

[deleted fren]

It actively pushes you away from engaging in combat. It also kills the satisfaction of exploration. If almost none of your rewards will be meaningful due to their poor longevity, then the discovery of one that's good won't spark excitement. Nintendo didn't have to implement this retarded system to push players to experiment more. In fact, it'd be far funner experimenting with the different weapons if you weren't under the constant fear of them breaking.

You're supposed to use weapons until they break, don't save them at all, it's completely the wrong mindset. Then use the environment and all the tools at your disposal to defeat enemies. That's what makes the game fun and deep, there are so many ways you finish off the enemy e.g. set him on fire etc
