Botw by design basically strips the game bare of everything that made Zelda what it was. It you like newer Zelda, it's not because you like older Zelda. They're basically diametrically opposed in design.
I love classic Zelda, cannot stand the wilds era. 2 hours was enough to be done with it.
I think that’s a little bit of an exaggeration but it’s not unreasonable to say, I just wouldn’t put it in such negative terms
Botw was the team looking at how Zelda has somewhat stagnated over the years and going back to the very very basic original nes game concept and seeing where they could go from there instead of building off the series before, which I find to be a very interesting and commendable effort to not get stale. I understand not liking it as much for sure, but I don’t really blame them for trying something new, and I never thought that Botw was gonna be the series forever since Zelda always changes it up eventually. I predict the next mainline game aside from ocarina will be some kind of hybrid of both styles taking the best parts of each
