The Legend of Zelda-serien har alltid erbjudit någon form av öppenhet i sina stora världar, men både Breath of the Wild och det nya Tears of the Kingdom är mycket mer flexibla i sin struktur och erbjuder en öppenhet som så andra titlar på marknaden kan matcha.
Och detta kommer också vara en vanlig del av framtida installationer i serien. I en intervju hos Game Informer säger producenten Eiji Aonuma att de kommer använda samma skelett, samma struktur, framöver:
"With Ocarina of Time, I think it's correct to say that it did kind of create a format for a number of titles in the franchise that came after it. But in some ways, that was a little bit restricting for us. While we always aim to give the player freedoms of certain kinds, there were certain things that format didn't really afford in giving people freedom. Of course, the series continued to evolve after Ocarina of Time, but I think it's also fair to say now that we've arrived at Breath of the Wild and the new type of more open play and freedom that it affords. Yeah, I think it's correct to say that it has created a new kind of format for the series to proceed from."
Är du nöjd med att det öppna upplägget gäller hädanefter, eller skulle du vilja se något mer linjärt?
