Yeah doesn't this kind of make the comic pointless if Zelda has had "open-world" in its blood from the inception?

"Open World" has kind of become a buzzword that doesn't mean anything. Lots of games have had open-world design going as far back as Ultima on the PC. To ignore them and act as if Skyrim, Witcher, and fucking Minecraft invented open-world is kind of stupid.
