Yes, every franchise has their own structure, or their own core components, but the thing is, recent Zelda's have been following a structure that they don't have to follow. The whole "3 things, mild twist, 5-7 more things" structure is not what makes Zelda, Zelda. Majora's Mask didn't do that. And it's still just as Zelda as any other. The original didn't do that. Wind Waker kind of did it, but still did it differently. The real core of the franchise is basically exploration+dungeons+items. There's so much that you can do with just those 3 things that it is kind of sad to see them following such a rigid structure. I really hope the next Zelda follows through and it really is a less linear experience like they said they wanted. And it would be really cool to see a genuine new villain. Zant and Girahim were cool. But it bugged me that they had to take the backseat when the "real" villain emerged (Ganondorf and a guy who basically is Ganondorf). At least in WW you knew it was Ganondorf from the beginning, and he was still fairly new.
So yeah, less linearity/different structure. New villain. (And get rid of the slingshot and just give me the bow right away.)
