There is a very high risk involved when changing a well-working formula and transforming the game into a Skyrim clone with Xenoblade X style empty worlds and a potentially boring and restrictive mission system. If you take out everything what makes Zelda great (dungeons, signature items) and replace it with breaking weapons and a physics engine, a lot can go wrong. So I really hope that Zelda will score above 80, else I will cancel my preorder.

In my opinion, a rating above 95 can be ruled out for sure because Skyrim is a 5 year old game but still provides better graphics and a much more alive world loaded with tons of content. Skyrim has much more content in its smaller world than Breath of the World can offer in its larger but empty environments. And content-density counts.
