A fast-travel tower is far more likely.

Collectibles are great! They just need to be implemented in an interesting way, like RDR's treasure maps or Black Flag's treasure maps and diving bells.
LoZ games are so puzzle-based that my hope is that most collectibles in this new Zelda game are based on sussing out puzzles to find the collectibles...so I guess really what I'm trying to say is that I want treasure maps in this new Zelda, too. Like Phantom Hourglass, actually, for that matter.

Not of the climbing, just of the towers and massive open world

Link is going to stalk targets by using stealth and parkour and kill them with a hidden master sword blade in his sleeve. There will also be a shitty metanarrative of a modern Link reliving the memories of his ancestors to stop the same evil in the present day.

Assassin's Creed components in a Skyrim-like world would be cool as hell.
That picture gets me more excited

Yeah this weird indie title Zelda is nothing to write home about from what we've seen so far

Wait. Will the climbing be boring and slow as in every other game ever?

first artwork of the game showing gameplay possibilities. We are about to see the game in two days, so we are thirst as hell
The problem with Ubi towers is that they reveal portions of the map filled with tons (i mean, TONS, literally too many) objectives and "mini-quests" that look and play the same, and you basically do that for the entire game. Do we expect Zelda to do this? Personally, i don't. It just doesn't make sense.
Isn't more obvious, and in line with the series, that they'll use the towers as "checkpoints", from where you restart when you die or load a save, and at the same time, for fast travel? In OOT, when you load the game, you start either from the Kokiri Forest or from the Temple of Time. But in such a huge world you can't have just two locations, so you go to the "towers of the elders" or whatever those things are called and you unlock a "checkpoint on the map", similarly to what happens in Xenoblade with the points of interest. I can even see them working a bit like the probes from X, in the sense of using the towers to reveal some stuff on the map (e.g. the Tyrants in X, here you reveal a giant boss or whatever), but why would Nintendo fill the map with useless subquests like skin the animal and kill the templar dude?

I mean Nintendo will probably do something new and interesting rather than aping a far inferior game series
But that's just me.

Nope! Lets dub it bad already while we got time and no factual information! We already know!
We don't even know what significance these towers hold yet. They might not even be warp points at all.
Lets wait till it gets shown before throwing "zelda is now an ubi game" around.

"A far inferior game series" that continues to sell like 20 times as more. So yeah, I can believe it.

It does go both ways too, you have people proclaiming the game to be "Game of all time" and being somewhat unreasonable at the same time in this thread.
I think we should turn to elements of recent Zeldas and Zelda 1 to look to the design of this game.
