I'm thinking more like GTA. Maybe with some kind of Dark Side/ Light Side balance system. Attack villagers or something and you slowly go to the "dark side".Link slowly changes into Dark Link whereas helping others and you stay more like the actual Link.Maybe instead of a solid quest it could play more like GTA with having to go to people to get a quest and it slowly builds into a story.
