Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are both fantastic games - and Tears of the Kingdom really does feel (to me) like they just took Breath of the Wild, and added a few more years of dev time to it.
Where do you think Nintendo will take Zelda from here though? Can they keep with the same new formula? Should they? Will a more traditional game feel disappointing after this?
I don’t really know what I want myself. I think they should try something different though. At the same time, I can’t help but think I’d be disappointed if the next game was more similar to something like Twilight Princess. Have they boxed themselves in?
I’d like to see more open world games for sure. How about along with that, we get some 3d re-imaginings of the original Zelda and Zelda 2? The graphics could be similar to that of the remake of Link’s Awakening.
botw was already a pseudo-reimagining of zelda 1, as per the devs. on the other hand, it would be interesting to see them do something with zelda 2, however. ninty alternates between ignoring that game and not.
