I believe you wanted another traditional Zelda, dude. And maybe Nintendo will go back to the formula, not sure. But from the perspective of the people who are gassing the game up, they got exactly what they wanted out of the game.
I don't believe the game is uninspired. I truly feel they looked into every element that would give the user the ability to play the game as free as the wanted to while at te same time maintaining a story regardless of how people felt about the story that didn't have you needing to complete one sequence to unlock the next.
They put gameplay at the top priority for this game, and I feel they nailed it.
I've never played witcher, so I can't say anything about that game. I think it's the game with the major amount of dodge rolling for boss. battles, or maybe I'm confusing that with DS. But I'll check gameplay tonight seeing as it's always brought up when discussing BOTW.
