Where do you think Nintendo will take Zelda from here? (self.nintendo)

Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are both fantastic games - and Tears of the Kingdom really does feel (to me) like they just took Breath of the Wild, and added a few more years of dev time to it.

Where do you think Nintendo will take Zelda from here though? Can they keep with the same new formula? Should they? Will a more traditional game feel disappointing after this?

I don't really know what I want myself. I think they should try something different though. At the same time, I can't help but think I'd be disappointed if the next game was more similar to something like Twilight Princess. Have they boxed themselves in?

After ToTK, I am begging for something less open, though I doubt we see that

I don't think the openness is the problem. The temples were too short, too easy and too few. The cutscene dialogue was clunky (obviously translated) and too repetitive.

I loved the temples in SS... nothing in TotK's temples felt so atmospheric.
