i don't think many here would be able to tell you. but ALttP is a game i felt was needlessly long and, while it's the foundation of every zelda game since, it's far from the best. ALBW addresses that by having amazing dungeons, tweaks to link's movement speed and access to fast travel, and a bunch of other seemingly minor stuff that results in an incredibly smooth experience.
I agree. I've always felt ALttP was overrated as far as it's general quality vs. other old-school Zelda games. I think pretty all three of the Game Boy/Color games are at least as good or better, for example. This said, it's still a great game.
Personally, I don't think ALBW and ALttP feel all that similar so I think you'd be fine to go right in and start on ALBW right away. ALBW has a bit of nostalgia going for it, of course, but it's a much more lively, faster paced game. Really, there is a pretty big difference in how you move around w/ the true analog control vs. d-pad and so pretty much every second you're playing, you are reminded you are playing a more modern game.
I am not too far in but so far I am definitely willing to say that I am liking ALBW lot better than ALttP (which I just played on GBA pretty recently, by the way).
