Sticking to traditional beats of a zelda game is not how you make ever better games Breath of the Wild isn't a better game, it's a completely different game. It's not even a later stage in the evolution of the Zelda formula, it's way out of left field. The (arguably) best Zelda 1 speedrunner in the world, LackAttack24 [1] even goes so far as to call it "NOT a Zelda game". Personally, I am not a fan of modern open world games in general. I feel like they trade off quantity over quality in the most extreme way possible. On the other hand, the tight, cohesive feel of a classic Zelda game is absolutely sublime and an experience that is often imitated but never duplicated.
