Yeah, I wanted to start through it from scratch with her, had to overwrite my old regular save file. Didn't mind as I really enjoy master mode so never play the normal one anyway. Seemed like an odd design choice in a Zelda game (then again, if BotW is known for anything, it's throwing series tradition out the window I guess).
Apparently you can make use of different Switch profiles as each will have its own save slots. Maybe one to look into another time!
The devine beasts battles were an unexpected difficulty ramp for sure the first time I played through. I rmember taking a few nights to get through that first one!
Those master sword trials were damn tricky, so satisifying to complete though! Have you got the Champions Ballad DLC? The Maz Koshia battle had me tearing my hair out if I recall correctly!

Oddly the maz koshia one was fine for me - I think I died once (normal mode) but it just reverts you back to the platform with fresh health for you and depleted health for him. And by that time I'd got the + versions of the champion powers so cooldowns on abilities like the lightning storm thing were just a minute or so of training him around. Never used the master cycle I got as a reward! Got the royal horse /ancient armour so can summon it anywhere. Would recommend.
CYOA
Do you mean save slots for different play throughs?
I've been playing with my son and having a lot of fun lately. I tried myself when I was given the switch a few years ago but couldn't get past vah ruta. Have now got almost 100% with a few notable exceptions - currently on master sword middle trial... holy shit
