I want a mod of BotW where Link's stamina is reduced if he spends too much time physically active between rests.
Make getting to an inn be a cathartic moment of respite. Make having more than a few meals in a day give him a stomach ache (lose a little max life until rest). Make the act of climbing a mountain in game to be truly treacherous, and the number of days passing by while you adventure to be noticeable. Make riding a horse be meaningfully better for you than running to your destination, and maybe avoid warping altogether.
I've been replaying BotW because it remains evergreen to some extent and because I wanted to have things in mind as I got ready to play the new one next month.
I've decided to play with the following stipulations:
Finished it tonight! It was a bit more focused on just completing all the main quests than other runs I've done, and I wanted to finish before the new one comes out on Friday.
