I wouldn't mind botw being the foundation for future titles much like ALttP ended up being the foundation for almost every game until botw

It's a hell of a lot better than "find the three items in the forest, volcano, and water area to get the master sword" formula they did for years

There should be a balance between the two though. Like bring back actual themed dungeons with unique designs, and integrate the dungeon item mechanic into the open world. I could see uses for stuff like the hookshot, grappling hook, spinner, pegasus boots, etc in traversing an open world

Or make the map smaller but take cues from Majora's Mask. Lots of interactions with the NPCs and intricate side quests, maybe with a days of the week schedule type of system
