Essential - Sword and shield combat, epic storyline, Ganon (I'm sorry, but every time they try and create a story outside of Ganon, it seems to fall flat), keeping with the overall storyline, quests within quests, weapon/shield/clothing upgrades, unique worlds and villages and cultures

Not essential - puzzles for puzzles sake, a friend to tag along, water/ice temples, central temples

Ok I made a doc file. I probably missed a lot. Anyone feel free to add and/or reformat it. A doc file sucks, but it works best in a table.
