Are ANY of the sidequests in this game worth doing? I feel like I'm getting near the end of the game so I've been slowing down to catch up on sidequests, and so far none of them have been. And after that crap with the Leviathan Bones quest and Eventide Island I just have to ask if any of them are worth it or if I should just ditch them.

Is that true? Never even played it.

The town building questline is pretty good because you get to have a significant impact on the world, but it's also got the absolute worst grind in it. Completing all quests in Kakariko gives you access to the shrine. And completing all quests in Gerudo town gives you the lightning helmet, but it doesn't give you full immunity, like the queen.
Josiah Reyes
So far I've found shrines only kind of useful. I haven't felt like I've needed more hearts or stamina in a while and the rewards in them are never anything interesting. The Lightning Helmet sounds kind of useful but I don't really run into many issues with lightning.
Asher Gomez
The unfortunate way they implemented both the runes and the loot system makes it so that the game has very little it can do to meaningfully reward you with side missions. The best it's usually able to offer is armor, like the sand boots or the lightning helm. Unless you enjoy doing the content for the sake of experiencing the content, you can skip out on most of it.
James Flores
The rewards are not worth it unless you want more shrines. Only do a sidequest if it is fun and you don't care about meh reward.
Nathan Evans
That sucks, honestly. Especially since I don't like the way the game 'guides' you with these quests. I don't need it to like... hold my hand or anything, but the game just saying "Look around this massive region until you find a thing and take a picture of it"... that's not really fun, that's just... tedious. Especially when the rewards are usually just a handful of rupees when it's so insanely easy to get rupees in this without trying.
Benjamin Green
Yeah, Breath of the Wild is not the kind of game where you want to do everything. You just do whatever you feel like as you go along on the main quest and whatever tangent strikes your mood.
That's why there are so many shrines and korok seeds. To fill up everyones adventure with the upgrades they need no matter what route they take. Getting them all is madness.
William Campbell
That's a shame since so far the main game feels ridiculously short for a main series Zelda title. I could be wrong, but after finishing the four Divine Beasts I feel like the game is telling me "go to the final area and beat the final boss", and I don't really see how that wouldn't be the case... but that'd make this whole thing REALLY brief.
