I know it's long, but this is a pretty well thought out critique of Tears of the Kingdom - giving a lot of thought into what the game got right, what it got wrong, how/why the wrong parts were wrong, as well as how they could have been better.

A third direct sequel would be too much. I think they got more than enough mileage of this version of Hyrule. I'm happier with Zelda turning back in this one, though they could have squeezed a post-game quest for that.

Definitely a fair take - it was my idea and even I think a third would be a bit much.

@TwilightVulpine I can imagine a a sequel where you explore the continent North and West of Hyrule, and the ocean East and South. And the current version of Hyrule would be “rebuilt” as a safe place or home base type area, with cities and ruins restored etc…

Even such a sequel would probably benefit more from having its own story like Majora's Mask rather than being necessary to wrap up Zelda's fate from TotK.

@TwilightVulpine Yeah, a completely non Ganon story would be nice.
