As for what Aonuma is saying, I take it he means it will be open world, but not sandbox.

Well the first mainstream one. No one knows Ultima.

objection

Ultima was mainstream at the time and for a good 20 years

I present a new case..

An open world is a level or game designed as a nonlinear, vast open area with many ways to reach an objective.

LoZ was the first true open world 'game' because it was nonlinear.
