The Zelda Cycle is real.

But in this case it's not just the fact that the Zelda Cycle exists. It's the fact that this game truly breaks ground for Zelda in a way we legitimately haven't seen in almost 20 years. This is how I imagine people looked at OoT in 1997 as they prepped for release the next year.

Anybody expecting the next X is going to be disappointed anyway, because Zelda Cycle; those expecting a good Zelda will almost surely be satisfied and then some.

Personally, if this is OoT, I cannot wait for the modern day MM.

I definitely could see Nintendo using Zelda BotW engine and assets and make another darker Zelda game, similar like MM done with OoT. And Nintendo would definitely not need another 5-6 years of development, they could make project like that in 2.5-3 years.

Well I believe it was confirmed that this engine is planned to be reused in other games, that's pretty much the reason I made the connection. And even if it weren't confirmed, Nintendo has been reusing a LOT lately as far as assets go. Which is not a bad thing by any means, mind you - in my opinion the best Zelda game was entirely a rehash of assets (MM, obviously). So it's not even an "I can see it" sort of thing to me anymore, it's a matter of when.
