But there are basic things that people are entitled to when they buy a certain product. If a buy a cheeseburger, I am entitled to cheese. If I buy Zelda, I am entitled to sword combat being an integral and well implemented part of the overall product, because that's one of the defining characteristics of the series since its introduction.

You can change the ingredients for a cheeseburger, but certain things like the cheese always needs to be there. And it's got to be real cheese and not some artificial/superficial substitute.

But in your case, you say that you take Zelda games as they come, so you probably aren't entitled. However, this doesn't mean that I am a bad person for demanding something that should be in Zelda.

Of course there are people who take it way too far and, for example, demand every new Zelda to be like Ocarina of Time. And when it happens to be like that, it isn't right either.

A more extreme example would be one member - I won't say who - that insisted, since the game's announcement, that Skyward Sword would not be as good as Twilight Princess because it was not Twilight Princess, particularly in terms of aesthetics.
