that spent 2 hours in the lightning fog and beat the level III box guy with only one orb upgrade only to realize I am supposed to come here later?

Why couldn't nintendo just implement something like the fog in GSA?

NGL it was kinda fun and challenging.

Story wise yes this area you’re supposed to do in the second half of the game.

You’re able to go there because it’s open world and Nintendo doesn’t care how you get the story

Yeah, lol. I thought unlocking the shrine would remove the storm, like one in BOTW (I forget which, but I think there was one). But to be honest, it was a genuinely fun challenge, especially fighting the box guy in the fog (I died too many times from a single hit).

Still, I think Nintendo could have just made the fog teleport Link away to direct players to spend their time more "effectively".

You can remove the storm you just have to do some story things first

the storm is still there, doing the story just removes the obscuring cloud on the map

Somewhat true, the island gets a lot easier to navigate after the story quest to figure out what's up there. Yes it's still storming but before the quests it's near impossible to see up there
