I was disappointed in SS for things other than the motion controls, which IMO were fine for the most part
>EMPTY AS FUCK SKY
For fuck's sake, you introduce this fantastical new setting, this new transport method and... it's literally only one town, an inn, two-three minigames and a bunch of bland, small rocks with literally one chest on them? Did you learn fucking NOTHING from Wind Waker?
>Boring and recycled lands
>FUCKING USELESS ITEMS
I didn't know that it was possible, but they managed to make an item set more bland and ultimately useless outside of clearing one or two puzzle types than TP'S. They even managed to ruin what was perhaps my favorite item from TP: the dual clawshot
>Excessively long tutorial that was 2anime4me
>FI
Just... everything about her, from the "WE DID IT ON PURPOSE" lack of personality, shitty instrument sections, EXCESSIVE amounts of hand-holding and player patronization basically bringing to life all the memes about Navi (that wasn't actually THAT annoying in retrospect), the god-awful dowsing mechanic and the OMG WE'RE PLAYING SAD MUSIC TIME TO GET EMOTIONAL, PLAYERS! shitty "dramatic ending" to a character no one but die-hard waifufaggots had ANY reason to care about before she suddenly grew genuine emotions in the LAST FUCKING FIVE MINUTES OF THE GAME, Fi was a mistake.

SS was a solid 6/10, but that wasn't really because of motion controls. A more competent team that didn't take its playerbase for braindead morons could have made a great game while using the exact same controls.

Because bottles automatically appear for the elixirs you make I wonder how bottles will work in the game. Maybe they're only used for holding stuff like fairies and bees and not for potions? Maybe the elixirs are more like weak potions and you need a bottle for more powerful potions?

That would be cool. While I doubt they would let you be really evil, maybe you could play as sort of a careless hero who does whatever he wants.

It's something they've dabbled with in previous games. Like being able to steal from the store in Link's Awakening, or characters noticing you're breaking their pots and rummaging through their stuff. Except they can expand on that and have a more realistic affect on the game.
>>
>>342689871
theres only been a single zelda game in the entire franchise with a single town that was fleshed out and given life, the rest were just truck stops with mostly empty buildings you couldn't enter. zelda 1 didn't even have towns, skyward sword just did an impression of one without any detail, TP created the most unholy lifeless pit of arms-lengthiness ever.

I want FISHING.
I want TWILIGHT PRINCESS QUALITY FISHING.

You can say whatever you want about Twilight Princess and most of it is true, but they did an AMAZING job fleshing out fishing.

There was a little record book for fish lengths and you could use different sorts of baits and different areas had different kinds of fish and you could fish in almost ANY deep water as well as SEE what kind of fish a body of water had.

If Breath of the wild doesn't have fleshed out fishing I'll be really disappointed.
>>
>>342691259
Yeah, but the punishment should be something more realistic than the shop keep killing you and everyone calling you THIEF for the rest of the game. How people treat you should change.

I don't really want to think of it as sort of a karma system like in the Mass Effect games, but maybe something like that too. Like regular people think less of you being a jerk to everyone while certain scoundrel types respect you more and each path opens different side quests or something.

Just to have characters react more to your bad behavior and maybe have real risk and reward for it. Like people have stuff you want to take from them, but there should be consequences for it.

>>342692460
You can't really make it out in the base game, only the HD version, but it's in Hyrule Castle Town, you can see it best from the center fountain square on the southwest side in the building with the Gorons, just head all the way up to the top out onto the balcony and look behind you.

It's too monumental a game to be shoved somewhere between games. I'm gonna go with the end of a timeline, or its own special one somehow.

I will buy a brand new WiiU or NX for this game if there are basic rpg mechanics like:
Lively villages to repair weapons/armor(?) to spend muh rupees
A homestead
Some sort of fishing instead of scavenging for everything
permanent maximum health besides food buffs

that would sell the fucking shit out of me on this game

Well, you definitely get a suite of armor.

>>342685418
I want a wide variety of unique enemies. Enemies like Pols Voices should be in the game and have unique ways to kill them. For a game that is all about your items getting destroyed, Like Likes need to be in too and will eat your gear. It will also be cool to see how they arm enemies too. There needs to be Goriyas who you can get boomerangs from, Darknuts and Iron Knuckles to steal weapons and armor from too. It would be a shame to not be able to wield the weapons of classic enemies.

I wish someone would post the original texture for comparison. I hate that a theory is hinging on the idea that Aonuma put a special feature in the HD game that retroactively alters the timeline and lore.

If the texture was always there in the original release, then it's likely just a plain easter egg without significance.

Was the Master Sword even a thing in Zelda 1 and 2? I'm positive it wasn't in the first game which would lead me to believe that this has to take place before then. Unless I'm wrong which is completely possible.

Villages there will be, spending rupees as well. Repairing is a no go, but you can craft items and shit

>A homestead
I really fucking doubt the hero of legends has time for this, you're not some fucking Dragonborn or some shit

>Some sort of fishing instead of scavenging for everything
With the sheer size of the map I really doubt scavenging is all you'll ever be able to do to obtain materials and stuff

It's zelda, there will be heart upgrades and such, both in the dungeons and the 100+ shrines.

Yes, I saw that too- It gave me hope, but it was also a bit of a "monkey's paw" situation in that I was horribly afraid that you wouldn't be able to just "fish"; like, you'd have to attack fish or kill them through attacking or something.

Not sporting at all.

I'm mostly worried because the map is so damn big and it looks like it's mostly wilderness, can that sustain interest for how long it would take to explore it? Recent Zeldas have also been expanding on fantasy cultures that had unique environments that I found interesting, I'm just uneasy about this emphasis on wilderness since I get bored by nature very quickly. If they add more ruins to explore like the temple when you first get out of the cave then I'll probably be fine.

Be free to like what you like, but none of those are actually RPG mechanics.

"RPG" in the videogame sense has to do with mechanics derived from D&D and other old tabletop RPGs.

Probably multiples of weapons in the game. For things like Biggorons Sword or something, they probably don't break.

Man I'm pretty excited for this game. I'm liking a lot of what we've been shown so far. But you know all this shit we're hyping up and fleshing out in our heads like just how far we'd like to see some of these systems go will be completely half baked compared to what we dream up.

Skyward Sword had both upgradeable gear, smiths able to repair your gear. And repair powder able to repair your gear.

I'd be highly surprised if BotW doesn't have one or likely even several means of repairing and upgrading your gear.
>>
>>342693430
>What if I find a great weapon i want to keep around with me but then it breaks and is gone forever?
No idea m8, I just assume every weapon you find you can go and kill the dude again. Or register the weapon at a blacksmith and craft it with enough resources. Or perhaps upgrade the weapons once you've found the upgraded version or just a rune or something. Say you have a Hero's bow, later in the game you find a Legendary Hero's Bow, now you can craft it. Or alternatively you have HB and HB with a diamond upgrade. You can craft a Diamond upgrade and use it on your favorite weapon or whatever. Much to see and not enough info yet.

>>342693559
Nah man, unbreakable weapons would invalidate every other weapon in the game and that would be shit.

Special tier weapons could still be repaired or might lose their functionality due to magic or whatever. Otherwise the Master Sword once fixed will just invalidate every other weapon in the game

>Nah man, unbreakable weapons would invalidate every other weapon in the game and that would be shit.
Not entirely, they could just be very weak weapons in comparison to the ones that do break.

Lets take the Master Sword/Giant's Knife for instance. The Giant's Knife does more damage, but it breaks, whereas the Master Sword does half the damage but doesn't break.

I can't imagine the Master Sword and Hylian Shield will break, it might take forever to get them, but I don't imagine them breaking or being the best weapons in the game by any means.

I am hoping that the various tiers of weapons have a final unbreakable weapon that requires a long process to get.

Master Sword and Hylian Shield are obviously the sword and shield ones. Hammer is the Megaton. Two hander is Biggoron. Ganon's Trident is the spear. Hero's Bow and then maybe some kind of super Rod.

I am also hoping for various places that you can call home. Would be nice to stock pile various stuff until you can get the unbreakable weapons.

I'm fairly certain this will be the first console (NX) I do buy on day one. Hell, it'll be the first console I bought before they were considered old (I got a PS3 right before PS4 released, and a 360 for a while cause I got it dirtcheap).

You're not the only one. I also have a feeling that the story is going to be surprisingly tragic or even somewhat depressing. Considering that they're seemingly taking an MM and Dark Souls approach the the story and lore, I'm expecting some sad or chilling, possibly even fridge horror-like backstories behind certain NPCs, areas or even items, I mean there's already evidence of the old Castle and Castle Town from OoT.

I'm pretty sure the durability system is a band-aid solution to the usual "rupees in every chest when you're already maxed out" problem

When there's a ton more items you can find, and you have to constantly replace them due o item degradation, then happening across a Knight's Sword or what have you in 20 different places on the map is still useful to the player.
