one of the pillars of the zelda franchise is the idea of linear progression tied to key items
Both Zelda 1 and ALBW both had very little of this, too. No one is out here saying that neither of those are ''true'' Zelda games or some nonsense like that.
BotW also has some progression:
-You have to get the Runes to get the Paraglider, which will allow you to leave the Great Plateau
-You get the outfit that lets you climb up waterfalls, which is required for some of the Koroks
-You must complete the Four Divine Beasts and obtain the Champion powers to access the Champion's Ballad content.
-You must obtain the Thunder Helm to gain access to one of the main dungeons in the game.
So it looks like BotW even has some of this, too!
