Which Zelda games were open world (before BotW)? I've always found them annoyingly linear.
The original Legend of Zelda. You had a large open overworld to explore, and IIRC could do many of the dungeons in any order.
That's cool, I haven't played any of the 2D ones (as you've probably guessed!), are they worth playing now for someone with no nostalgia goggles?
I would say the original Zelda isn't, but link to the past definitely holds up. Honestly most of the 2d Zelda's from link to the past onwards are good
