Title for the new game: The Legend of Zelda: Hand of Time.

Personally I'm quite happy with where the pendulum came to rest with BOTW. All I'd really like to change for the successor is more enemy variety and themed dungeons, other than that I'm more than happy for BOTW's design to remain the new series blueprint in the way Ocarina was the blueprint for Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword.

I'm similarly happy with Breath of the Wild, and its focus on open-ended, emergent gameplay. Heck, it's the best game I've played. At the same time, I do love the structured action-adventure blueprint from the 1992-2013 years, and hope that doesn't disappear. Maybe the tradition can carry on with new 2D installments?

For me it's the #3 best game I've played, behind only RE4 and Super Mario Galaxy. I doubt the old blueprint is gone forever, and it's certainly possible the 2D branch of the series will be where it lives on. Future 3D entries may even try to blend the two templates to please fans of both.
