It could be a new IP called "Fields of Dawn" or some crap and I'd still think it was the most impressive game I've seen in years.

Tell me why ? I want to be educated about how this game is the most impressive thing in recent years, lets forget this is zelda. If this game is so impressive it must do some things you never saw in gaming before right?

For me, what makes it so much more appealing than a typical sandbox game is the amount of thought and nuance that's gone into the world and how you interact with it.
Vegetation can be set on fire, which creates updrafts you can ride with your sail cloth and is influenced by the wind. You can even set a wooden club on fire then hit enemies with it set them on fire, though doing so will degrade the club until it is destroyed. Trees can be felled for firewood, and if cut down into a river will float downstream on the current. Temperature varies not just by area, clothing, and time of day, but with altitude and proximity to fire; the peak of a mountain is colder than halfway up, and you can start a fire and stay by it to keep warm, except if it rains, the fire will be put out. The skeleton enemies will pick up their comrade's severed arms to use as weapons. Bokoblins can leave their weapons lying unattended while lounging around camp, and you can sneak up and steal them before engaging.
I could go on and on, but I honestly can't think of many other games that offer so many creative ways to interact with its world.
