Aonuma certainly made good on his promises to finally change up Zelda and challenge those conventions.
We have Link with a makeover, dropping the green tunic for the nifty blue champion's shirt.
We have less main dungeons which dont look or feel like the dungeons of old.
We have next to no hand holding as far as learning how to play the game goes.
Weapon breaking, overworld bosses, bigger focus on side quests, new controls and new powers... its all here.
BotW is a line in the sand. Like OoT it will probably guide the series for another 15-20 years...
But how much of BotW will remain?
How much of it felt as if it were made solely for BotW?
Will runes continue to be a thing in some form?
Will Link stay in blue or will he revert back to green or have his appearance complety change once again?
Will we see another 100+ mini dungeons and fewer main dungeons or will it change up again?
Is BotW the template for future Zelda games or will a lot of its elements be exclusive only to BotW itself?
