True Ludus worthy of Kojima himself. Micrococks simply can't understand.

I think this new Zelda is without a doubt the best game that has been ever done.
Nintendo has simply crafted a piece of entertaining media that pushes the boundaries of what we now as gaming so far, that I seriously can't see a single videogame surpasing it in the next 10 years or more.
Every detail, every animation, every branch and corner of the world's majestic enviroment it's done with the love and caring that only Nintendo knows.
This is not a just game, it's a ode to us, the players, to show how when even the world of games is at it's worse with all the cinematic and press x for awesome shovelware, Nintendo can do the impossible... to actually make games

I like how everything seems sort of physics-y, as in the rolling boulders, enemies dropping their weapons and so on, makes everything seem very alive.

That's sort of what I wanted from "next gen" memery back when the new consoles came out

Reminds me of how all the trees and shit move in the wind in Witcher 3, I really like that

I never even played a Zelda game, but my little sister asked me if "there is Zelda on the Wii" so she's getting Wind Waker HD for her birthday and I might play that and this one when it comes out

I can only hope it they tweaked it for the E3 build. Otherwise they're going for a dramatic/cinematic effect via musical ques and not doing a very good job at it.

Everything else looked good though sans the pop in textures. Mini dungeons look nice, and I'm hoping you can unlock additional attacks as you progress, like the stealth overhead. It basically seems like a bigger Wind Waker with more hostile monsters, so it's probably going to have a polarizing as fuck reception. If Monolith is actually helping them with this then maybe there's a chance they'll put out texture packs too.

I've not been a Nintendo fan since the N64, moving into GC and this doesn't change anything.
It looks like just another open world game but "omg its a zelda gaem!"

There's nothing wrong with what I've seen, it looks fairly nice, but that's it. The people claiming is GOAT and won E3 single handedly are fucking crazy.
At this point, it feels more like ammo to shitpost with. We won't really get actual unbias thoughts until the next Zelda game's released.

Looking pretty cool to me. One minor thing that nags at me are the enemy health bars not being hearts. Seems like such a natural thing to include and its absence just confuses me. Link's stamina bar also does not need to be in the center of the screen. It's ugly and stupid and I hate it. Only real major issue I might have is how the new item system plays out. I don't typically like random filler loot systems and I honestly feel a more deliberate placement like the Souls series would have played to classic Zelda sensibilities a bit better.

>return to more open area's
I think this is a fantastic fucking development after the disaster that was Skyward Swords open area, which was literally just an expansive sky of nothing in between levels. It also is overland, correcting Wind Wakers mistake of the ocean having lots of nothing in it (nowhere near as bad as Skyward though).

>RPG elements
This I'm not so hot on. Of course stuff like inventory, shittons of weapons, and the like has always been a Zelda thing. But damage over time weapons? Upgraded weapons outside of Dungeons? Eh, remains to be seen if this will work.

>Sanctuaries
They were pretty vague but there being so many is a red flag for me. That and it hints that the plot will be centered around the Goddesses of Hyrule, like finding the statue of Hylia in the ruins of the temple of time. This I am REALLY not looking forward to, the more they do this god shit the worse the story is

Some of the monster's hitpoints were so large I doubt they could portray them as heart containers.

I don't believe for a second that they only showed 2% of the content and I believe the world will have a lot of travelling areas where very little happens.

All open world games love to pretend that the gameplay experience is unique and different if it takes place in a different environment. We all know how Farcry, MGSV, Just Cause, Skyrim, Dragons Dogma repeat themselves.

I don't trust it at all. Amigo content is jewfuck as well.

I am interested in seeing the final release of it because it reminds me of Nausticaa

I'm somewhat excited but also worried because other than the occasional camp with a few Moblins and some rock walls with a treasure chest behind them the overworld felt really boring.

Now i know that they deliberately didn't show villages, towns and NPCs in the demo, but just because those things exist doesn't mean that the places in the world that we've seen aren't empty as fuck. That video footage of link sliding down a large mountain on his shield where there wasn't any kind of interesting landmark to be seen on the horizon was really underwhelming. We get a huge ass world, and it's barely utilized?

>Inb4 it's realistic
Yeah, but video games should have good level design, not try to be overly realistic. If this is what it means to go open world, i'd rather have the intricate, good level design of previous Zeldas back.

Of course the dungeons and shrines have some actual level design in them instead of just mindless terraforming, but those are compeltely seperate from the overworld anyways.

I really, really hope it's not as empty as it seems to be

Educated guess. They repeatedly bragged about how there were hundreds of shrines. They must have said it a dozen times in a five minute period.

Chances are that things on the overworld might change as you progress. I don't think it'll just be moblin groups over the entire world for the whole time you're playing. They didn't cover a large area either, they mostly went around the starting area in circles.

It's look absolutely amazing. Ninty adding in stuff just for pure fun like the boulder physics and being able to stall the boulder to charge momentum. Just imagine hitting an aerial enemy with that across the map. Also, the shield sliding. Despite being a part of the map that would seem is almost completely empty, it seemed surprisingly full with hidden NPCs, collectibles, enemies, shrines, etc. The verticality of the world is really amazing finally they are using 3D for something. The puzzles this far seemed surprisingly better than any modern Zelda by a long shot. There seems to be a lot of quirky abilities that are just fun. It may be an open-world copy, but Zelda was always an open-world game. It feels like 3D Zelda has truly been achieved. Even though I game on PC mostly I'm really excited for this game (its world might even be better than TW3).
>>
I seriously am extremely hyped. It looks amazing, it looks like everything a zelda game could be, still being a Zelda game.

However, there are some points which I personally thought were awful and could ruin the game:
>your sheikah slate is a fucking Ipad and the game added some pointless concept such as marking enemies and slowmotion to make it "look cool", which I personally hated
>altough the exploring feels amazing, the fact that you find all the itens around in such an easy way makes it very different from what zelda feels. The guy got a fucking bow and bombs in 10 minutes of gaming, also that winged Deku-leaf-like item was there from the beggining. It takes away the zelda feeling of completing your inventory and being amazed from what item you're going to get in the dungeon.
>open, free world is amazing, but how in the fuck can link climb literally anything? That is annoying pretty stupid and a really negative point of the game, if you ask me
>amiibos, kek
Well, anyway, it still looks like it could be greater than Majora's mask, the best Zelda game in all history. I want it!
ALso, i am a bit of a bitchy person about the timeline, and it looks like this would be a precedor to Wind Waker, which would not make any sense from my point of view of Zelda. It just makes no sense.

I don't like either of those games and I don't own a PS4.

I think the game looks like shit. It's the same boring empty open-world shit I've been seeing in games for several years now.

No love, no hate, just disappointment.

Hard to believe a game series that was so innovative and fun in my childhood congealed over time into a bunch of carbon copies of other games, but its not just Legend of Zelda.

Frankly I don't care about uselessly arguing my opinion versus someone else's opinion on the Internet, so I'll try to drop some insight instead.

Maybe it's me being nostalgic or cynical, but I can turn on classic games from over a decade ago and have fun. When I'm done having fun, I'll move on to another activity but feel satisfied with the experience. When I try some more recent games its either rehashed gameplay with better graphics that make you feel empty inside or solid mechanics repeated over and over until your interest has a slow and horrible death. When you can't find anything but mediocrity in a hobby that brought you countless hours of entertainment, you know something went wrong.

So did something happen to me? The game industry? Society? Who knows, probably all of that is a factor. But I'll keep on trying to find the next great game because struggling for happiness is not a waste of time.

It was literally the beginning area of the game. You shouldn't be expecting anything other than Bokoblins and Chus roaming about. The overworld is just a means of getting from one shrine/dungeon to the next, so there's no need to stuff it to the seams with all kinds of content. That said, it's fucking Zelda, so of course there will be plenty of secrets strewn about to wet your appetite.

The whole point is it being an open wilderness anyway, what do you want, highways and fast food joints? It wouldn't be very wild if it weren't a little empty.

>>341362697
Looks amazing and only seems to receive non-criticism.
>b-but muh empty map
watch the fucking stream. The map is brimming with nooks and crannies. They have handled open world in a very intelligent and fun way. While most nooks are just going to contain insignificant items, the fact that many will still hold valuable prizes means each tie you're doing a little side task, be it exploring a cave, invading a den, you'll always feel a sense of adventure and excitement. And we all know Nintendo is great at throwing in unexpected surprises to those who explore.
>the stamina meter, what were they thinking!!
But stamina itself is not a problem like it was in SS. Sure it'd be better if it were just for climbing, but you don't start panting and falling over when it depletes, while running. You just slow down to normal running speed. Fine by me. And in climbing, it's necessary in order to lock out higher areas.

I think Zelda is one of the deepest, most serious and well defined hardcore franchises, and changing the formula is blasphemy. We don't want """"innovation"""", which is just a buzzword meaning "ruined franchise". We want the good, nostalgic, complex mechanics that we grew up with, we want the deep writing and dark themes of the true Zelda games.

Zelda is and always has been hardcore and focused. Weird, shitty spin-offs like this have never happened before. This is the end of the franchise.

Not the quoted anon, but what I really want is a bunch of secrets around the map. Remember when ocarina of time had ground holes in it, even tho it wasn't much inside, but it was still a little mysterious. The Legend of Zelda had a lot of that too, so i want it in this game, it would be amazing.

The game is rock solid fps on WiiU like every other first party game. The frame lags were the streams.

I'm sure you will. Like I said, it's silly to make presumptions about the game based on what's essentially Ordon Village. We already saw them exploring caves, sailing down rivers, raiding enemy camps... shit man, they fought an OVERWORLD MINIBOSS right out of the gate. You can't ask for more than that for the first 2% of the world, and that's WITH a bunch of content removed for the demo.

Yes, because unlike other companies, Nintendo actually realizes that they're making are GAMES. As in, not reality, not even dedicated fiction. It's all for fun. Zelda has a good lore and story but it's never serious to the point where they can't just fuck around. Link in MK. Majora's Mask in ALBW. It doesn't fucking matter, it's for fun.

I think the reason this one has people's attention is that they're going back to the open, exploration-focused nature of the first Zelda game, only bigger and with tons of environmental interactions. It could actually be good.

And if it starts the way it looks like, there's no two-hour tutorial. Or any tutorial at all.

Underwhelming.

Open world itch was scratched ages ago. I am sick of it now. I am sure the game will have a lot of charm and character but at the end of the day it is just another save zeldo kill bad piggu man. On top of that it is a big empty open world.

When will the empty open world game design meme end?

>>341369654
Well what are you expecting exactly? That every area is either a nook/cranny or a straight line to the temple?
Of course areas of the game are going to be more open without the need for extra crannies. It ties in with what I said about the unknown. Playing the game, you won't know if what you're exploring has any relevancy or purpose. So it means you can explore and be satisfied when you do get rewarded for your exploration. And it's not like it'll be a headless chicken hunt. If you see an area which looks like it's going to contain at least something in it, it probably will. My point is, your travelling won't be aimless or barren. Even if you're not looking for any rewards or hidden things, getting from point A to B will certainly be interesting based on how fresh and alive the world looks and feels.
