If there were a Zelda cartoon, would you prefer a serialized adventure similar to Avatar with classic Link designs or a comedic episodic cartoon with cel-shaded Link?

Pretty much, >>83888981. Samurai Jack following a mostly silent Link could be cool. But if they did a cel-shaded toon Link, doing it as sort of a Wander Over Yonder playing with Zelda tropes; I could dig it. Especially if they had Windwaker's humor.
>>
I would prefer the former because episodic comedies are so dime a dozen, but I wouldn't really mind either way as long as Link doesn't fucking talk.
>>
Cel-shaded Link, if only because he pulls off the "expressive silent protagonist" shtick so much better.

You really don't need him to talk at all when you've got that giant face of his. You've got everything you need to know about him there. Like those mischievous, knowing smiles or those exasperated, tired frowns.

Man cel-shaded Link is cute.
>>
>>83889073
I'm sick of this "Link doesn't/can't talk" meme.

He talks all the time in the games - either through dialogue the player selects or in a manner that the player doesn't hear, like telling people his name. He's not actually mute, the players just don't hear him talk.

Ocarina of Time had a text box near the beginning where he tells the guy whos is blocking the deku tree that he's right and he's not ready or something like that.

It's something like "You're right that I don't have ___" or something like that. I always thought it was odd that he didn't speak like that again in the game.
>>
>>83889212
That wasn't my point. I just wouldn't want Link to have a voice actor. I would prefer him to still be a silent protagonist.
>>
>>83889641
That was Mido talking, the implication being that Link pointed out that Mido didn't have a sword or shield either.
>>
>>83889212
This. The old "silent JRPG protagonist" trope is a bit misleading because they only communicate implicitly. Link or Crono or any Dragon Quest hero might never have an actual line of dialog, but in conversations you see that people react to what they "say" all the same, or you get dialog choices, or something like "Adol explained to the love interest of the week why he'd entered the monster temple". It's supposed to be about player immersion.

A lot of western RPGs with detailed character creation still do similar with protags, despite giving you more dialog choices.

Jack didn't fight Aku every episode. Samurai Jack more in the tone of a wandering swordsman righting wrongs and fighting against the agents of a greater evil. Confrontations with Ganondorf would be few and far between and depending on which Ganondorf we're talking about he could be an interesting foil.

Maybe throw in Midna as Link's Scotsman type reoccurring guest. Someone who comes in, fucks stuff up, gets up to trouble and ropes Link in by turning him into a dog if he doesn't help.
>>
>>83891292
That footage.
I am drooling.

I've thought about this a bit. I think instead of adapting the games perfectly, it would be a looser adaptation. Since games have so much content.

I think it should be a different Link each season, and the tone would change with each Link. But, they're all mute, yet very expressive, and can make various grunts. Depending on the tone, they might be more serious, or more silly. I figure every 3rd season could be a Toon Link season.

They'd be attempting to defeat different villains and such sometimes it's Ganon, or maybe Ganondorf, or maybe Vaati, or maybe Demise or someone, and you'd get to see different interpretations of all the notable characters. Like a Toon Malon or a OoT Midna.

It sounds like the game is almost entirely side-quests.

Anyone else feel like the new Zelda is going to be Hypercrisis as fuck?

I've always wanted to play a video game that were like Morrison's works and kind of analyzed the relationship between the developer and the player, that were very meta and played around with game design concepts, and relied on a player's knowledge of a particular series or notions of game design or various game tropes to deliver some hard-hitting twists, to include the player in its story more, or to analyze the nature of interactive storytelling. I think BotW is going to be the closest thing to that in a video game.

From everything that we've seen, it looks crazy as hell. We've already gotten some interesting fan theories on /v/ and such, like it potentially being set in a convergence of all three Zelda timelines, Link not being your typical Link, it being simultaneously the last Zelda game in the timeline and the first due to some stable time loop shenanigans. I really feel like this is going to be an opportunity by Nintendo to deliver some really weird bullshit that you'll really have to wrap your mind around. And I can't wait, it's going to be great.

That Tetris voice doesn't sound bad at all.

What little they 'showed' of BotW's English voice acting sounds terrible so far. I've always wanted voice acting in a Zelda game but that person's voice in the trailer just sounds really monotone and emotionless. The deliver is off. I hope Nintendo doesn't skip out on the voice acting.

If there is a lack of civilization around, I would assume that means it is in a world after Skyward Sword. I kinda figure that villages probably exist somewhere. If they do, I hope the villagers are more interactive than they were in Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess.

If you want a Zelda game that is a mishmash of all the previous, that would be Four Swords Adventures. It has everything, and doesn't try to make a lot of sense.

>>83892487
>No fuck you, I refuse to believe it. I'm never going to play that tumblr-tier game.
Fine, don't. It is a game with an extreme meta take on a wide variety of video game tropes, though. Your loss.
>>
>>83892439
My nigga.

It makes more sense for Metroid because Samus is almost always isolated, at least on her adventures. So it would make more sense for a Metroid cartoon to be very much in a similar spirit to SJ.

A LoZ cartoon wouldn't work like that a lot of the time, because there are always people to talk to in Zelda games. There's always usually at least one town, lots of NPCs factor into the story, they send you on sidequests or even quests that matter to the actual plot, and sometimes you can even find NPCs in dungeons. Plus you often have companions that are along with Link for the ride and often stop to talk to him about whatever.

So for LoZ, it could be somewhat similar-ish to SJ, but there's always going to be more supporting characters, more recurring characters too.
>>
>>83888935
>classic Link designs
you are aware those are way closer to "Toon Link" than they are to the Link that appears in OoT / TP, right?

>>83890873
This is probably the most amusing as a Zelda fan.

For Zelda I think I would prefer a more lighthearted cartoon series. If Nintendo wants to make something more stylized, action-oriented, heavy adventure, I'd probably prefer Metroid.
>>
>>83892556
I've been meaning to play that.

>>83892566
They didn't show towns in the E3 demo because they didn't want to spoil them. Meaning they probably give away a huge bit of the game. Gameplay-wise, a lot of people were thinking you end up developing them as the game continues or something. Story-wise, they might give away some aspects of the story. If the theory about it being a convergence of the Zelda timelines is true, maybe you might have the Ruto from WW in one town but the Zora in another and so on.

Neither can I, bunch of furries and pedos and pedofurries they are. Luckily no one is forcing you to interact with them. You like No More Heroes and Zelda, so as someone who really loves those series, let me say this: it was the best game to come out in 2015, at least from a narrative standpoint.

I think a exclusively comedic series wouldn't be good for zelda, it would have to be a action cartoon.

Speaking of Nintendo and cartoons I think a mother/earthbound cartoon would be fantastic. Since the art is already so western I think a anime would look/feel weird and western style would fit perfectly.

To be fair, he was alone more often than not and most of the strangers he met were one-off roles, which is more like Samus' adventures. In almost any given Zelda, there are going to be major supporting roles and you'll interact with them multiple times throughout the game.

A Zelda show would probably have similar characters, so there'd be periods of isolation but also lots of instances where you'd have Link and other characters interacting with lots of dialogue.

Technically it would be the same Link and Ganon just reincarnated.
And for whatever reason sometimes Ganon remembers his past lives and sometime he doesn't.
>>
>>83896594
because they do it interestingly
he's always presented in a cool and intriguing way and the timeline thing lets them have separate version of the same character
from the Beastial Conqueror of the Downfall timeline
to the Forlorn Lord of the Adult timeline
to the Scorned Would-Be-Dark Lord of the Child timeline
then theres the reborn Ganon in the Child timeline as well
and the other antagonists like Vaati, Bellum, Deth I, and Cole who give us a break from the Classic Gerudo King

reincarnation and reinvention is a tremendously huge tenet of the zelda universe

the goddesses reincarnate their avatars, the ones of courage, power and wisdom, to maintain the holy gifts that keep hyrule in existence. There will always be those three made in tangency with each other, for all time.

When it doesn't, you get horrific floods, or great shizms, or in this case it's been so long that I bet an element of the game will be about trying to remember all this shit to save the world.

the fact that this takes place after Zelda 1 and 2 as well as several other clues lead me to believe that this game is the first game where Ganon takes on a human form.

Nintendo doesn't even use Ganondorf/Ganon that much these days.

I think aside from TP, all the more recent Zelda games have technically had different villains.

SS had Demise, whom Ganondorf is spawned from. But still isn't actually Ganondorf.

ALBW had Yuga and Hilda, the former being an alternate version of Ganon but not Ganon still.

Pretty sure the DS games had different villains entirely.

It's been literally years since Ganon/Ganondorf has been the main villain in a mainline Zelda game and even in TP, he only hijacked the story at the last minute really. For most of the game, Zant is the main bad guy and G-Dorf doesn't even get that much screen time.

With that in mind, it's literally been over 10 years since Ganondorf was the main baddie throughout the entire game. Nintendo is actually much better about it than DC.
>>
>>83896683
well so far the only time we've dealt with a second Ganon is in 4 Swords Adventures where he was reborn after the first dies in TP in the Child Timelime
he of course died in the Adult Timeline in WW whos villains have since been demons and ethereal parasites
and in the Downfall Timeline his Shadow continues to fall over Hyrule due to resurrections several resurrection attempts after his defeat in ALttP where he is eventuall revived and causes strife in Zelda 1 and then is again sought to be revived by his followers.
and since i think this new game takes place in the downfall timeline i assume the Calamity Ganon is some sort of force of nature cause as a result of perhaps a failed revival or a back lash from his power leaking out, and since people refer to the Calamity Ganon as It i assume its less of a person

i think the best way to have that kinda feel is to have some kind of narrator. he could "speak" for Link and maybe add a bit of humor. though he either have to sound like a grandpa or be the most gravelly voice motherfucker they can fine.

It's 'heresy' but I really don't like the HW design all that much. It's not THAT good imo and the hair is way too long.

Do hope they give him a really good design and fantastic story presence. This is going to be Ganondorf's big, huge return isn't it?

As far as 'classic' Ganondorf goes, TP Ganondorf is his best design, though I wasn't a huge fan of that game. Love it in Smash.

>>83896876
so ill level with you
i personally think that it would be thus:
Calamity Ganon is the result of a botched attempt at revival by Ganon's underlings ala Oracle and Zelda 2
this link was sealed away in case anything like that happened, an emergancy hero just in case.
however this revival had an unexpected bi product, it revived Ganon human side as a separate entity, the Old Man
the Old Man will guide and aid Link to defeat his wild demonic power til its on its last legs the re-subjugate it using the Triforce of Power. He and Link will have a dual which ends ultimately in a draw before the now reempowerd Ganon aways, promising a return. weather this is a conquer reborn or a Gerudo King tempered by mortality and humility will remain to be seen in the wake of the bittersweet departure of a once trusted ally

spoilered for autismo tier theorys of a game thats no where near out and has almost no story content revealed

Honestly we need another Captain N, Super Mario bros show which was basically a compilation of franchises. One episode of Zelda, Kirby the next day, Metroid and so on.

Midna is cute, she's probably the reason I enjoyed TP so much, having an actual main character, with an arc in a Zelda game was pretty nice.

I could have probably done without the Zelda nonsense and just have everything be about Midna really.
>>
>>83896752
>the goddesses reincarnate their avatars, the ones of courage, power and wisdom, to maintain the holy gifts that keep hyrule in existence.
IIRC Ganon stole the triforce of power and keeps resurrecting HIMSELF even though the Goddesses want him gone.

Without him the other two would never reincarnate.

>>83897160
i like sequel hooks and WW Ganon
that said speculating on the ending is dumb on my part
part of me hopes im right for the most part so i can watch my fan fiction come to life
and part of me hopes im wrong so i can be surprised
but all of my hopes that the side character and quests are MM and WW teir
>>
>>83897274
well yeah
Link and Zelda are always individuals, they dont really retain their reincarnated memories, where as aside from Four Swords Adventures, Ganon is always the same guy
they'd probably gladly break a chain of reincarnation if it mean taking down the deathless specter looming over Hyrule
>>
>>83897273
Go ahead and fap, my penis-laden brother. All the girls in this series are strong and badass and cool, no problems here if that's what you like. If anything I'd rather guys like them than the shit you see in other games which are just tits on a stick made to jerk you off. I'd be insulted if they tried to pander to me with anything less than a fully realized chick character, honestly

You realize that it's not a SJW game, it doesn't really have any Message that it drives into your skull. It's just a good character-driven story with interesting mechanics. Tumblr merely adopted the quality, and made up their own bullshit about it.
Yes, there's a divorced couple that is on bad terms. Yes, there's a lesbian couple, who also happen to be a fish and dinosaur. Yes there's an extremely theatrical robot. But none of this shit is *gay* the way they do it.
Seriously, it's short, cheap, and fun. And if it really upsets you that much, you can just murder everything.
murdering everything may result in keyboard-throwing levels of frustration as the game difficulty reaches "only deals 1 damage" levels of bullshittery.

Also, the fact that there are 27 separate endings, that's some crazy shit. Even if many of those endings are just text, the dev cared enough to take every possible condition into consideration.

No, WW Link still is his own person, but he set a new reincarnation cycle with his spirit.
