I'm sure the Zelda community could come up with better themed dungeons than the producers. What would you think make great temples? In every Zelda game I'm a dissapointed because again, we are faced with the standard forest, fire and water temples, without large variations in theming. Unique themed temples are rare in Zelda games. I think it's time for future Zelda games to surprise us more.
Heres what I made up: a shadow temple, but one that is really dark and is made of dark, solid stone. It has to be underground and reach extremely deep. The deeper you get, the weirder and creepier it becomes. I also see a tremendously large underground dome of darkness. It's mostly just eyecandy: imagine seeing thousands of tunnels, bridges, pits, etc, as far as the eye can see. It would create a sense of a grand scope, a vastness that no man or Hylian would be able to build, and also a sense that you are so deep underground, and so lost in the tunnels, that Link will never get out of it. Of course a dungeon can only be so large, so you're only able to reach a small part of the tunnels. But the illusion of a vast, mysterious, dark temple seems awesome to me. And of course you'll be confronted with ReDeads, Stalfos, falling floors and other hazards.
I'm curious to read about your ideas!
