Zelda director provides explanation as to why Breath of the Wild lacks traditional dungeons

[signz]

cuz you could just do some quick climbing and walk through the front doors to fight Ganon in just a couple minutes...unlike actual dungeons.

That's actually how I ended up fighting Ganon by accident.

It's actually due to laziness, since they were porting the game. Didn't wanna take more time adding dungeons to both versions. And it might have been more of a RAM issue with the Wii U.

Personally, i liked the shorter dungeons. But that's just my useless opinion.
