I think most people have used guides, but I wonder how much guide people use. Take me for instance, I play blind as much as possible, but I look up a guide to see if there are any weapons that I can miss in a playthrough.

Same. I consider myself a purist when it comes to guides, but.... I need my giant sword lol

A few comments have mentioned they play blind as much as possible. How much is it possible to play the game blind?

Is it after 20% of the game you have to use a guide no matter what?

Think of it less as "at the 20% mark you'll need a guide" and more "you'll probably only FIND 20% of the game your first playthrough without a guide" - you'll find the critical path, you'll beat the game, but without a TON of tenacity, you won't complete a lot of the side quests, and probably won't even find some. You probably won't really have a grasp on what conditions you need to get an ending you like, etc.

All of it CAN be found, can be done, without a guide, and you'll probably have a blast doing it, it's just a matter of the time and commitment you want to/are able to put in.

I see. As long as the main quest itself isn't literally hidden and impossible to find without a guide, I'm fine.

Yeah, 100%. There are some much more obvious signs posts around the main quest stuffs.
