Expectations?
Wishes?
Your level of Hype?
How you plan to pass the waiting time?
Cracked theories?
Shameful fapping?

Don't be shy, tell me how you really feel.

It's the Zelda game I have wanted for the past 20 years. It's exactly what I bought a Wii U at launch for.
>>
>>342235221

Honestly I'm hyped and feeling tempted to buy a Wii U because of it. Grew up with Nintendo consoles, played most of the Zelda games, but jumped out of the bandwagon once I began maining on PC gaming. Now I'm considering a comeback.
What I'm most impressed is how this Zelda is pretty out of it's standards, with a very vast open world and mechanics similar to a survival game on PC, this one might be one of the best of the series.

Well doc, I dislike how flakey people are and how noone I know seems to know what loyalty is, why can't I just have a clone to fuck and hang with

People go weeks and months without talking to me, shoot me an "I miss you" and then proceed to make no time to hang out

It's frustrating

Oh you meant the game? :^]
Looks good, I'm trying to stay as spoiler free as possible to enjoy it more

>Expectations
Hyrule is going to be fucking huge. And there will be a LOT of weird, fun ways to "break" the game. We're also going to see a ton of returning items (boomerang, beetle, ice rod, etc.) that the player has to actually find in the world to use.

>Wishes
Lots of callbacks to older Zelda games. I know we're getting calbacks to the 3D Zeldas, but I want stuff from Zelda II, LttP, Awakening and Oracles! Also, I want playable Zelda as an unlockable or "hard" mode where you cast magic to attack.

>Hype
It's the Zelda game I wanted since I was a kid. It feels more like a spiritual sequel the NES Zeldas than even OoT or Wind Waker did. I have watched webms, vids, and talked about it nonstop since E3.

>Waiting?
I've been trying to finish by back catalog of games. Also been getting some reinterest in the Zelda RPG my friends and I were tinkering with for tabletop.

>Cracked theories?
This is somehow post TP, not WW, since they said TP at E3. Also, please for the love of god don't have the Sheikah be ayy lmaos.

>Shameful fapping?
None...? I ain't gay, son
>>
I am you standard casual who only plays Civ 5 on a limited basis, because I loved RTS games as a kid. The last system I had was a GC, except now we pretty much have a Wii because my sister in law left it at our place two years ago. When I heard about this game I got all nostalgic and purchased the Ninty select TP for Wii. Playing through it now, and while it's not the same thrill I got playing the game originally, or even the thrill I got playing OoT or aLttP as a kid, it does make me consider getting a setup just to play BotW. If the NX is a GC2 I will get it as long as it also has a 3D Mario at launch. If not maybe I'll grab a cheap WiiU from Kijiji for BotW
>>
>>342236308
I like the idea of coming up with ways to "break" is, but somehow I feel like that will mostly be limited to travel shenanigans in the overworld. The demo's showed the shrines as being entered with overworld hot-spots, so there is a chance that the dungeons are the same way. Once you have entered the shrine, there is really only a couple of loose items around you to mess with.

add giant again

not necessarily the once form mayors mask but something like that. Also add a village that is on top of a giant beast. just do some cool stuff with the world and not try to copy the same old boring fantasy setting

most bosses should be huge and require usage of several iteams and climbing on top of them Shadow of the Colossal style

give me the ability to fly around on a bird.
a game world this big would really benefit from a late game flying mount

overall expectations are low since the dungeon that the showed so far looked gameplay wise boring and artistically terrible

I also don´t like the fact that you apparently can do every dungeon from the start because that means that you probably won´t use your items in the dungeons to solve puzzles which only means that the dungeons won´t be much different from another
>>
>>342235221
Never played Zelda before, not interested in playing the old games either.

I'll see some gameplay when it comes out and decide if it's worth anything.

Why have they ditched the green tunic?

It doesn't even look like it's gonna play a major role in the game.

That just feels wrong desu.

Can't have a Zelda game without the green tunic. I won't be purchasing this one because of this.

If they can keep the same density of stuff that was shown on the great plateau throughout the rest of the world, then I'll be satisfied. The bits they've shown us of 'Utah' sort of worry me, but again, still 9 months away

I expect exactly what I've seen - a huge ass world and MECHANICS. I wish for the mainline dungeons to be good since we still know nothing about those. Hype's about at a 7 or so.

We know that link can probably find a way to sneak into any area of the map early, but we also know that it will be hard without the right tools. Despite being able to pick any direction, this will probably keep us within a normal Zelda narrative the bulk of the time.

We know that Link can pick up food, resources, robot parts, and other junk. We have seen him cook up foods and potions. We have heard rumors about being able to craft devices, so that probably means that some village will have a tinkerer that can combine your found objects and/or repair the weapons you have grown attached to.

You can ride a horse, but horses don't usually climb mountains or fly, so I assume it will be hard to get the horse out of its starting area.

It may or may not be possible to beat Ganon at the beginning. They've said you can find him, but that may not imply that it is possible to beat him. Usually you need some specific weapon to lay a dent on him. Maybe this game will be different, but I slightly doubt it.

Some devices are acquired by completing shrines and using the reward orbs to buy other stuff. The glider cost 4 orbs. This will push completionists to visit every single shrine to barely have enough orbs to buy exactly every available device in the game with no change left over. This is basically par for Zelda.

The Master Sword probably exists. Link will probably find it, and have some NPC tell him that he can't use/pull it unless he completes his hero trials. Red, Green, and Blue pendants to prove your worth as a hero.

The Great Deku Tree lives, somewhere.

If you follow the story, Link will probably eventually come across princess Zelda. It's possible that Ganon already holds her captive.

If this is a resurrected Ganon, then expect a secondary villain to supply monologues. Koume and Kotake are prime suspects for possible Ganon resurrection. If K&K are in the game, possibly expect other Gerudo.

There will be fishing.

The games pretty much what I thought Twilight Princess would be. As a kid reading mags I really thought it'd be a huge open game where I'd wander around, find a mysteryous dungeon and explore it. Too bad it was nowhere close to that, but I'm glad it's finally happening.

It would be pretty cool to be in a place where you could look around and recognize it as a place you enjoyed in the previous game. Something liek a "my house was right over here" kind of thing. The nearest we really get is how OOT imitated most of the LTTP game locations, but it was done in backwards time 2D-vs-3D so it didn't mean much.

We know the Sheikah Slate picks up new abilities from the shrines. We know there are supposed to be at least 100 shrines. It seems doubtful that there are 100 new apps for the Sheikah Slate to download. Maybe a bunch of them are repeats, or are upgrades for abilities you already have. At least they are unlikely to have ads.

Starting near an old man in a cave. Ganon already being exposed but without elaboration. Free roaming. Easy death to be found everywhere. This is a clear homage to the original LoZ. How far will it go?

There will probably be a Hylean settlement somewhere.
There will probably be a normal human settlement somewhere.
There will probably be Zora.
There will probably be Gorons.
There will probably be Sheikah ruins someplace.
There might be Ruto.
There might be Gerudo.
There might be pirates.
There might be robots.

>Wishes?
Green tunic, reddish-brown horse with white mane, being able to make Link left-handed
>Your level of Hype?
Off the charts. It's everything I've wanted in an open world game. It's open enough that you can go anywhere and completing any inane activity is still working towards a goal, but there's still some purposefulness to everything, rather than locked behind cutscenes and mission markers and RPG level and stat padding.

>How you plan to pass the waiting time?
Working on backlag, minimizing the amount of time I spent playing open world titles, action-adventure titles, anything that resembles Zelda.

Basically I want to be so deprived of anything that reminds me of Zelda that I'm like a relapsed addict who doesn't realize that my tolerance has plummeted and overdoses, when Breath of the Wild finally comes out.


>Shameful fapping?
Also not fapping, but mostly for unrelated reasons.

>>342236308
Since manual jumping is in the game, what are the chances we get the cape?

Considering rupees are still a thing (you can see them in the pause menu, even if it was impossible to get any in the demo), I'm sure there'll be a lot of merchants, even if they are hidden in caves.

>You can ride a horse, but horses don't usually climb mountains or fly, so I assume it will be hard to get the horse out of its starting area.
Apart from the beginning Plateau, which is separated from the rest because it's the tutorial area, I'm inclined to believe the rest of the map will be traversable by horse. Or maybe they'll go the OoT / Witcher 3 route and let you summon it whenever you are. Maybe Link will whistle Epona's song, instead of using any kind of instrument. Or maybe the Sheikah Slate will play the song, I dunno.

>The Master Sword probably exists.
Nigga it's in the trailer and in the logo.

>>342246029
I'd also like to see the Roc's Cape return.
>>
>>342246314
Shit how did I not remember this item, made the last part of minish cap such fun. All I can picture now is link doing a metroid style space jump and then using it like the super mario world cape to glide and alter to maintain height.

>>342235221
So are you guys going to bite the bullet and get the NX or will you buy the shitty version of BotW?
>>
Demo is on eshop!
>>
>>342246035
I don't believe the horse will go very far from its starting area. I think they want us to struggle to climb to the towers, which will act as both warp points and as jumping platforms to glide from.
>>
>>342246314

What use would it have with the glider already in?

Infinite gliding without using stamina?
>>
>A bean recipe gives temporary powered flight to your glider.
>>
>>342247497
I don't see the relation between having a horse and "struggling to climb the towers", anon. Unless you're saying that they want to get on foot to them.

So, it could be like this: You can't go with the horse from one region to the next, but if you fast travel, the horse appears at your side. Which would make you need to unlock the fast travel point in the new region, so you would be forced to walk for a while anyways.
>>
>>342247139
don't play with us.
>>
>>342247139
Don't do this to us anon. 9 months are hard enough without you getting impossible hopes up.
>>
>>342247994
Seems unlikely that the horse can be called to areas that it can't be ridden to naturally. She hasn't been able to in any other game, so why start in the game that has more realism?
>>
>>342248378
It also wouldn't make sense to go through the trouble of getting a horse to only use it in one region.
In any case, in the trailer we see Link riding through very different areas, so in any case we know at least some of the regions are connected by land.

I'm still in shock with this image. Wasn't the Master Sword supposed to be unbreakable or something? What the hell happened that made it look like this in just a hundred years?
>>
>>342248880
The rust is easily age. The chips on the other hand, indicate this sword has been used hard. The reason it isn't in the Temple of Time, might be that it is laying out somewhere next to a corpse.
>>
>>342249193
>in just a hundred years
it's probably been like this for a much longer time

probably because it was stuck at the bottom of the sea
>>
>>342249593
So this Link went to a hundred year sleep without even using the sword? I'm getting more interested in the story each day.
>>342249424
But the trailer show it's in a pedestal, practically copy-pasted from LttP. What's up with that?
>>
>>342249938
The games always end in the pedestal.
>>
>>342250060
Yes, but I mean, usually the pedestal is inside the Temple of Time, or in its ruins anyways. But then in this game we've seen the Temple and there's nothing inside Unless it's hidden somehow
>>
>>342248880
The world could be post-wind waker. Which means the Master's Sword has been buried in Ganon's head at the bottom of the sea for ages.

I have been. I want to hear more of the game's music. The ambient piano idea is interesting, I want to see where it goes.
>>
>>342250234
We can't know until the game is out, but the promotional image doesn't necessarily mean that the sword is in that spot at the beginning of the game. The demo at E3 had a Temple of Time, with an interior that looked nothing like the resting place of the Master Sword. This leaves us awash in possibilities.
>It could be hidden under the big statue in the temple.
>There could be multiple temples of time.
>The sword could simply be elsewhere.
>Ganon may have found a way to pull it.
>It could be that a dead hero pulled it.
>>
>>342250748
You're right. I'm just assuming the sword will be resting in its pedestal until you take it, like always, but seeing how they're throwing out of the window most of Zelda conventions, wouldn't be that surprised if any of your scenarios were true.
>>
>>342250745
>I want to hear more of the game's music
anon...
>>
>>342250748
>>342250916
Half the time the master's sword is in the "sacred grounds". In ALttP that was in the Lost Woods. it's not always in the temple of time.
>>
>>342250332
Yeah but it's also damaged so hopefully there's more to it.
>>342250349
Now that horses carry equipment you can probably store them there.

I know BotW will have 100s of challenge areas or whatever... but will there any dungeons like we're used to in Zelda?

I'm guessing we'll have some major ones we're intended to beat for the story and there will be plenty of others that are smaller encounters.

Funny. There's going to be plenty of music, even if it sticks by the ambient and atmospheric motif. Just show me more.
>>
>>342251192
pretty sure normal dungeons have been confirmed
>>
In aLttP I can't remember if the master sword is even the best sword. I know it is the second sword you get, but isn't the fourth sword just the third sword that gets tempered? Or is it the master sword that gets tempered?
>>
>>342251116
Aren't the Lost Woods just the ruins of the Temple of Time, but forgotten and with a forest growing around it?
>>
>>342251351
The master's sword is reforged into the golden sword. It's just the master's sword but sharper.
>>

The location in TP, retcons the grounds in LTTP to be the ruins of the Temple of Time.
Even OOT had a Sacred grove with the same ambiance as seen in TP and LTTP for the resting spot of the Master Sword. Even the broken staircase was there. OOT simply moved the temple elsewhere for gameplay reasons.
In a faithful depiction of Hyrule, the temple can probably be considered to be in the woods.

I kinda find it amusing that different scenarios might prop up different timeline placements. I expect that Nintendo will probably spell it out in the game cutscenes, but even if they didn't, the location might be a good clue about how the world is how it is.
>>
I bet Ganon stole the master sword so that he couldn't be defeated so we'll only get it at the end of the game otherwise the weapon drops we find will be useless.

I bet part of the 'optional' quest will be finding the sword but it's not required to go beat ganon since its confirmed we can go right to the end from the beginning.

A Zelda with next to no story, full of lore and bits that help you understand what happened to Hyrule, Zelda and why is Calamity Ganon a thing.

>Wishes?
Colossal battles.
Giant enemies, huge structures, chases at high speed around Hyrule, great heights and dimension. A games as open as this demands greatness and awe-inspiring things to happen. The Sheikah towers and Calamity Ganon might be a hint of that.

Gonna finish up TP, play FSA (since it's canon for some reason), play Ages to finally complete de Oracle games and shit posting.

I strongly belive this Link ain't the real hero. He's a messenger of the Goddesses to awake the real one, hidden somewhere in Hyrule.

Can't wait.
>>
>>342251795
Oh hold on, I misremembered. The mastered sword is reforged into the tempered sword, and then if you throw the tempered sword into the fairy's pool at Ganon's pyramid, she gives you the golden sword. That's the 4th sword.
>>
>>342251879
I'm suspecting that this is some kind of sealed Ganon, that beat the shit out of the Master Sword in order to get a large enough crack to escape from.
The problem with that theory of course, is that they have already done it twice, and had to invent a third timeline to explain why they did it twice.

It doesn't guarantee a WW timeline. It only guarantee that some of the Zora joined the Valoo cult after the OOT time period. No reason to assume that Valoo doesn't exist in all timelines.

Even if true the rito have been retconned in TPHD.

This.
The new Great Deku Tree, exists in at least 2/3 of timelines following OOT, because we see him born in OOT. He made his followers look that way.

I don't think it was a natural evolution, they likely lost the ability to live underwater by the goddesses so they can't go snooping around Hyrule. Then the wings evolved thanks to Valooo.

>>342253221
The Zora technically existed in WW, but were killed/scattered before Link could reach Greatfish Island.

You can think of the Rito and Zora as being blank humans that took on the features of their patron diety.

The ones that worship JabuJabu (Jabun), have fish features.
The ones that worship Valoo, get feathered features.
Only Nintendo knows what the atheist end up looking like.

I wonder if there'll be a lamp in this game or we're forced to do with torches. Maybe one of the Slate powers is that of a flashlight of sorts. Imagine something like the mirror shield, but creating its own light, not having to actually reflect a ray of light.

>>342254167
Nah, I don't think so. There's 4 shrines in the Plateau, you need to visit them all to get the glider thingy. you get it, and then you're able to jump in any direction and survive. It works perfectly as a "tutorial zone" before you're in the open world. Think of it like the White Orchard area in Witcher 3.

>>342254256
>or that you're supposed to play by yourself.
If I had to guess, I'd say that just means there'll be some kind of Miiverse integration. Maybe Dark Souls style, leaving notes for people to see. I don't see this game having any kind of online play, even if that would be awesome.

>...or that you're supposed to play by yourself.
I don't want a multiplayer dueling. I want to have team-up questing. Imagine the shenanigans that two people could do to the physics system.
>>
>>342254537
ALBW was them practicing playing dungeons out of order
Triforce heroes was them practicing how online play could work in Zelda.
>>
>>342254138
Doubt there's a lamp having torches. I think they are focusing on the importance of finding resources and weapons here and there and putting them into good use.

But the possibility of haveing a mirror shield which absorbs and carries light and uses it in some form to solve puzzles or to blind enemies makes my dick hard.
>>
>>342254639
Yeah, and you'll probably be able to complete dungeons in any order... After you're done with the tutorial area
In all seriousness, it wouldn't make sense to develop a Plateau that won't be in the final version. If they wanted to lock the rest of the world in the E3 demo they would've just put a "magic barrier" or something.
>>
>>342254138
Half of the items seem to be flammable. I don't think the lamps matter this time.
>>
>>342254970
I think you'd be able to get down from the plateau without the glider or doing any of the shrines, but it'd be very difficult and couldn't be done accidentally.
>>
>>342254398
Master Sword is in the trailer. It's seen better days
>>342248880

>>342255137
Hm. Well, I guess you could if you stuffed your pockets with stamina-regen food, as we've seen in a gameplay that you can eat food even mid-jump while climbing.

If some of the map leaks are an indicator, the east and south are bordered by ocean, and the north and west may be unscalable mountains. i would not be at all surprised if the terrain simply gets so harsh that you can't survive leaving the game area.

Considering it's a pretty high plateau, my guess is that the only "non-fast travel" way to get there will be stuffing yourself with stamina regen food, since it's a pretty high climb.

On that note, I really hope there are lots of ways of permanently increasing your stamina. The base level is just too low, you can barely climb anything and Link gets tired of running after two seconds.

Also, I don't like how swimming takes stamina. If you're sprinting and you fall in water, that's an insta-death since you won't have enough to get to any shore.

Yes, what I meant to say is that the "permanent increases" are noticeable and not too scarce in the world. Make it SotC style, give us a small boost for every shrine we defeat.
>>
>>342261835
But also make them optional, that way people that want to challenge themselves can choose whether to take them or not rather than being forced into them

I read something on the thread about two-handed claymores being shown. But where? I haven't seen anything like that in the videos

The spider crabs and how your fighting them, that rock monster and such gives me hope to have some great boss fights

This game has the potential to make each major boss as satisfying as Koloktoss in SS, especially with the free will of defeating them

Framerate drops are from the stream, go watch any off screen footage

The game looks really great up close, whoever told you low distance is full of shit
>>
>>342262183
I would be okay with making them optional, perhaps make them a food item that you can choose not to eat? Like in, I think, Dark Cloud, the way to improve your HP was to eat certain foods.

And yeah, I don't have any link (heh) on me right now but yeah there are two handed claymores. They're even called like that. Just like there are two handed axes and hammers.

>>342262439
Wouldn't be surprised if it were just an armor piece you can get and wear.

>>342262692
Nah man, go check any of the direct feed videos. The framerate goes to hell in certain moments, specially when Link climbs a tree for some reason. Maybe the game shits itself with the transparencies (the treetop becomes half invisible so you can see), but it's so obvious and jarring that I have no doubt that it'll be fixed by launch date. I haven't noticed them during battles though.

The draw distance looks good imo, specially when it comes to enemies, you can scout from quite far away. Also you can shoot an arrow straight up and it won't dissapear, like in many other games.

Expectations: It will actually be a Zelda game worth playing unlike all the yawn inducing Zelda games between OoT and BoW (OoT only being notable because it was where the games transitioned from 2D to 3D, I actually found OoT nowhere near as enjoyable as Link to the Past.)

Wish: Radiant style side quests. If the side quests are always the same then the replayability goes down somewhat

Level of Hype: Medium as its going to be awhile before another Witcher, Elder Scrolls or Fallout comes along. Not saying BoW will be anything like those games but it is open world in the way I find enjoyable.

How do I plan to pass the wait time: Playing new mods in Fallout 4 when the last expansions come out, Playing Skyrim remastered when it comes out, Playing other games in my steam library I haven't even gotten to yet

Cracked theories: Zelda will suffer from some hilarious bugs typical of giant open world games like Witcher 3, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout. Maybe not to the extent of the last two but I'm sure there will be some due to the giant size of the game map and number of assets increasing the chance something will be overlooked.

Shameful fapping: Nope, BoW looks fun but hardly revolutionary. It potentially will be a game which I'd really enjoy but not one I must have.

OOT --> WW (adult line)
Ganon is sealed in the Sacred Realm by the Master Sword in OOT and escapes in WW.
Ganon is killed.

OOT --> TP (child line) --- Ganon is sealed in the Twilight Realm in OOT's era and escapes in TP.
Ganon is killed.

OOT --> LTTP (failed line) --- Ganon is sealed by the Master Sword in the Sacred Realm in OOT's era and escapes in LTTP.
Ganon is killed.

??? --> BotW (???) --- Something happens to the Master Sword and Ganon is back.

They've done resurrections before, but it usually doesn't mean wrecking the Master Sword. The Master Sword's only real connection to Ganon is that it seals him away in 2/3 of OOT's (known) endings. With the Master Sword wrecked, it really feels like another plot with an escape from the Sacred Realm, but it would take a 4th timeline to fit that in. No matter where you put the game, it has problems. It will take some gymnastics for Nintendo to fit this game into the known narrative.

What if?!

The time period between OOT and WW.
You'll find the Master Sword, and be forbidden to pull it.
You have to vanquish Ganon's presence in the world, and leave alone the part of him that is still sealed away in the Sacred Realm.
You can't be 100% successful, so the world is flooded at the end of the game.

>>342253831
Bays have fresh water more often than not dipshit, and the only Zora in WW is a sage who either died before the flood or had an unnaturally long lifespan and was born before the flood

The name "Zora" is never mentioned even once in the entirety of Wind Waker. The Zora who acted as the Sage was over a hundred years old and the last of her kind. The Rito evolved from the Zora. This is an established fact. Everyone seems to know this but you.
>>
>>342267752
There's still no meaning in doing that. Aonuma was talking about breaking gameplay conventions. It'd annoy most fans more than anything if the Master Sword turned out to be a worthless piece of shit. Your hopes are stupid.

>>342268094
How could an entire race evolve so quickly? Like, in just a hundred years they went from fish to bird. This is Pokémon level of evolution.

>>342268005
Ganon was sealed in OOT, during the game. Nobody has said anything about sealing him in WW.
Ganon tells you himself in WW that pulling the Master Sword has released his remaining power from where it was trapped in the Sacred Realm.
It is almost the exact same game premise that was used in LTTP, so it wasn't even new to WW.
>>
>>342267752
>song suddenly stops and sword breaks in half

I would shit myself. Talk about breaking conventions. This would mean they introduced a character, only to kill them in the next game. Aside from that, is there a guarantee that Demise was actually dead by this point?

His spirit is in the Master Sword and they talk about how it's slowly decaying, but what if it is just on the verge of finally being snuffed out and then this happens. The sword is destroyed, Demise is VERY weak, but escapes and goes off to try to get to Calamity Ganon.

You now have the choice, do you try to find a way to stop these two forces from uniting, or do you try to find a way to reforge the Blade of Evil's bane?
>>

WW and TP both take place 400 years after OoT

We don't know exactly when between OoT and WW the flood happened, but many assume Valoo and his magic flight-enabling scales/feathers (can't remember which) helped them evolve faster
>>
>>342268227
Magic.

The Rito aren't even properly adapted for flight from birth. In order to be able to fly, they need to receive their wings from Valoo. So this implies that Valoo has something to do with their evolution into bird people.

Nah, don't get me wrong, I'm not hoping for it to happen, I just think it would be cool and completely unexpected.
I still want the possibility to roam Hyrule in my green tunic and hat, carrying my trusty Hylian shield and Master Sword. I want Link to be able to be Link, even if it's just at the end of the game or as a secret dungeon or something.
Please, PLEASE don't make the green hero garb an amiibo unlock

Valoo changes the Zora that are near him into Ruto. The Zora that stay with Jabun on Greatfish Isle remain Zora. Ganondorf kills them in order to eliminate the sage's bloodline.

You are literally making shit up. You are making shit up to support your own headcanon. There are no more Zora in Wind Waker. The only Zora we see is the hundred+ year old Sage. The term "Zora" is never used in the entirety of Wind Waker. Not a single Zora aside from the Sage is ever seen in not just Wind Waker, but also Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks.

You are wrong.

You know what they should actually do?

Reuse the NPC we all know and love.

I'm dead serious. In the past few games, they were kinda lackluster. Where is our Malon? Where is our Guru-Guru? Where is our postman? Tingle? Where are our Koume/Kotake? Where are our Gorman bros?

Sure, bring new NPCs along them, but I really feel there are some NPCs that SHOULD ALWAYS be there, as much as Link, Zelda and Ganondorf are always here in each installment.
>>
>>342269331
He's right, they don't say they are sealing him in the Sacred Realm. They say they are sealing him in the EVIL Realm.

Now, people thought they were talking about the Sacred Realm because of what happens to it in LTTP when an evil wish is made on the Triforce. It becomes the Dark World. But it's clearly not the same thing.

Your question has been answered. Ganondord was sealed in the Sacred Realm. As established in the Imprisoning War, Ganondorf turned the Sacred Realm into the Dark World. They did not bury him in the dirt, they sealed him into the Sacred Realm. The Master Sword's function in OOT, and WW, and LTTP, was to seal the Sacred Realm.

OOT already tells you multiple times that the Master Sword seals the Sacred Realm. Link lets Ganondorf into the Sacred Realm by pulling the Master Sword. OOT reinforces this with the dialog and events, and it was already established canon from LTTP. WW used it again, and Ganondorf tells you in his monologue that you have freed him.

In LTTP, they explain it in full that Ganondorf controls the Sacred Realm because he entered it first and went for the Triforce. He made it the Dark World that you play in LTTP. OOT was made to show how he got in. Every bad thing since OOT was basically Link's fault.

Well it is possible. There is a lot of time in between TP and FSA, and the stone slab with the Rito and Oocoo is from TP.

We also have no Kokiri present in TP, considering the layout of it's Hyrule with the chasms and tectonic shift at the time, it's possible the Kokiri became the Koroks and needed the ability to fly over the chasms and restore Hyrule to what it once was.

We've been over this, it's not possible to the be the WW Timeline. Nobody is going to remove the Master Sword from Ganondorf's head, and even if the world unflooded, you'd have mountains jettisoning into the sky forming islands where the sea level was. Koroks do not have to be a great sea thing, they're that way solely because they need to fly, the Kikwi for instance are likely Kokiri and they're penguin things.

You can't honestly not think there hasn't been earthquakes or some type of geography change in TP.

Just look at it. The Temple of Time and the Great Deku Tree/Kokiri Symbols are right by each other. The Gerudo Desert is completely separated from Hyrule and right beside Lake Hylia, Lake Hylia being above both the Temple of Time and Kokiri Areas.

It has nothing to do with Dark Souls, it's quite stupidly obvious in fact that earthquakes/tectonic shift has happened by the time of TP.
>>
>>342272587
>We've been over this, it's not possible to the be the WW Timeline
As much as I doubt this is in the WW timeline, there are seemingly problems incurred from every timeline placement. Flaws would have to be ignored when putting it after WW, but other flaws would have to be ignored with putting it after TP, and other different flaws would have to be ignored if putting it between OOT and LTTP. The placement is anybody's game right now.

Your slate is now your basic set of powers, this is what most puzzles are going to be based around along with what ever item found in the dungeons.

The trouble there, is that this is Calamity Ganon. Pure monster, usually reserved for a Ganon after he has been resurrected from the dead. OOT's Ganon is Ganondorf the living man. LTTP's imprisoning war was about basically the events of OOT, with the living Ganondorf that breaks in with his band of thieves. That would mean that Ganondorf was still sealed in roughly the OOT time period in that timeline.

For the new game to come between them, the game would have to start with a partial escape of Ganon's spirit form, and end with the status quo of Ganondorf still being sealed away so that he is fresh for LTTP. It's just not that epic for a console Zelda to end with a status quo ending.

I'm excited but I have two main fears:

1) The world will become boring once the novelty of the unknown wears off and you know where everything is

2) it will be like Sticker Star where most treasure chests just end up replacing the materials you used to get to them. For example you break your sword fighting through a Bokoblin camp just to unlock a chest with a replacement sword

>For example you break your sword fighting through a Bokoblin camp just to unlock a chest with a replacement sword

I think Equipment management will be far better. Though I hope that item durability is much better then it was for the demo. Obviously they wanted to showcase item durability and if you had everything lasting a hundred hits, it's hard to do that.

If your weapons only last 10 hits, they will be absolutely worthless in the long run and you will need a stock of 10 weapons for a dungeon, or even more. Think about how long the average dungeon is in a Zelda game. Could you imagine getting into much combat with the way that Items break from the demo? No, it just isn't going to happen.

So either item durability goes up for stronger weapons into something like 200 hits. Or there will be plenty of chances for replacements.

Even from the demo though, it seems like you get tons of weapons just from the camps. Even if you are forced to use some Boko weapons, they are only a little bit weaker then Traveler's gear and you usually get something decent from the chest as well.

They totally do. For starters you can't leave the plateau without the glider. And you'll need strong enough equipment to beat Ganon, and probably some runes to reach him?

>And you'll need strong enough equipment to beat Ganon
Have you ever seen LoZ speedruns before?


>For starters you can't leave the plateau without the glider
>and probably some runes to reach him?
Aonuma said you could go fight dorf as soon as you start the game
>>
>>342276708
Supposedly, the creators don't have a lot of faith that the plateau will prevent people from figuring out a way down without the expected equipment. A side effect of the game physics is that the natural barriers can be breached if you try hard enough.
>>
>>342277039
No.

He said you didn't have to get the story, and you could go right trough to ganon if you wanted so.

In that case, you still need the glider, you jasut don't have to complete every dungeon or someshit like that
>>
>>342277039
They'll make sure he'll do an unavoidable attack that takes up many hearts, thus making the need for better equipments or more hearts necessary.

Sure, you'll be able to run to him, but you won't be able to beat him.
>>
>>342277039
He still is miles away, so what that probably means is that you can go towards him without doing dungeons or story things, but not literally right away.

>>342277082
I suppose people will try to glitch their way down. Even if they do it, maybe it's still not worth it, since the glider will allow you to skip other chasms and whatnot for sure further on.

suck a cock
>>
>>342277601
What would probably be frustrating, is if you skipped the glider, and couldn't get back up to get it.
>>
>>342277778
Well, you're not climbing back up on your own, that's for sure. I'm guessing there's something you can do to return back up there later on. Probably a cannon?
>>
>>342277985
Not that I remember, I think you can warp back to the resurrection chamber.
>>
>>342277039
It's probably a situation where having the glider and so on would be ideal, but you can get to areas other ways by climbing, bringing stamina restoring items, etc.

The thing I wonder isn't how we're going to reach Ganon, but how you're supposed to beat him after your stock of bokoblin clubs and skeleton arms are all broken.

I imagine the crux of BotW's story will be, similar to WW, finding the Master Sword and restoring it to its old strength. Once you've done this, you'll have an unbreakable weapon that deals enough damage to Ganon that defeating him becomes feasible.
>>
>>342248880
I have a feeling that this will be the only unbreakable sword in the game that you can't get rid of. I'm also willing to bet that it isn't the most powerful sword in the game.
>>
>>342278140
Oh, I totally forgot about that. Yeah, you can warp not only there, but to any shrine you've reached too.
>>
ëThe link in breath of wild is the link from majoras mask and oot.

>>342278179
>how you're supposed to beat him after your stock of bokoblin clubs and skeleton arms are all broken.
Remember that weapons now have different power values. In the demo you can see people attacking guardians and the stone golem with normal bow and arrows and they were doing jackshit damage to them.
>>
>>342278457
He looks nothing like OoT's teen Link
>>
>>342278519
That's what I mean. How much fucking health do you think Ganon's going to have? You can fill your entire inventory with clubs and it probably won't do 1% of the fucker's healthbar before they all break.

It's not going to be just about AVOIDING his 1-hit kill attack long enough to kill him. It's going to be about dealing enough damage to actually kill him before the heat death of the universe.
>>
>>342278179
Even though we might technically reach him, I have little doubt that you can't actually dent him without the Master Sword. And the Master Sword probably won't work until you have quested to acquire it and then quested to fix it.
>>
>>342279000
>It's not going to be just about AVOIDING his 1-hit kill attack long enough to kill him. It's going to be about dealing enough damage to actually kill him before the heat death of the universe.
I don't know why you keep on bringing up a 1-hit kill attack, or the fact that you think speedrunners won't find a way to make a a club unbreakable and master sword-tier

Maybe the first time playing the game with no guide to help you.I remember spending a few hours figuring out Turtle Rock when I was 6,a fuck ton of trial and error with the pads.But nowadays,with all of the dark dungeons combined,it's maybe an hour,tops.

It's still GOAT music

At the beginning of the shrines, the Skeikah Pad downloads a new app that's related to teh puzzles of that shrine. That's where demo Link was getting bombs and magnetic levitation and stuff.

Oh yeah, sorry, I meant to post this image with that post. This shrine didn't give anything at the beginning. Most of them probably won't.

I think if we get more runes from shrines, those shrines will be more "critical" than the others. Maybe they'll be story-related.

>Is the Koroks exist, than the Great Deku Tree exists. You might never meet him, but he exists.
Oh yeah, I suppose that's true. But I don't think we've seen any massive trees in BOTW. He could potentially be indoors like he was in WW.

I'm worried about just about how much this diverges from Zelda conventions. Will there even be big "main" dungeons? Will there be at least eight?
I also don't like that the weapons seem to break really fast. I hope that at the very least you can fight unarmed. I also really hope that you can find some unbreakable weapons. I hope the OOT-style Link outfit is in the game, as well as the Master Sword and Hylian Shield.

They haven't told us a timeline placement, but we are supposed to recognize elements from TP while playing. Could just mean familiar devices or places. The placement could be almost anywhere at this point, since nothing in the demo makes total sense in any location on the time fork.

Hyrule Warriors isn't canon.
>>
>>342288945
I've been told before that OoT's Temple of Time is supposed to be in the forest, but they just placed it in the city because of hardware reasons, but canonically it's in a forest.
Seeing how it's the only game where the temple / master sword is in the middle of the city, I'm inclined to believe it.

>>342268750
But there is a voiceover telling you to look at your Shiekah slate.

LTTP past was hugely popular when OOT was being planned. OOT was planned as a 3D remake of LTTP, so they built the sacred grove and stairs out in the woods. it would have been the same basic ruins setting as seen in TP. The Temple of Time would have been reached by the old broken staircase, except that the developers changed the story to the Imprisoning War instead of being a remake of LTTP. They moved the ToT into town, because it was a more accessible place for you to return to with your three pendants. The grove stayed where it was, and the doorway was reassigned to a different dungeon.

>Expectations:
Something hopefully on the level of Wind Waker where the whole journey to new locales feels epic, but with the OoT/TP feel of traversing on foot combined with Shadow of the Colossus' "climb anywhere" mentality.

>Wishes:
I've heard there's supposed to be a town, but I haven't freshened up on the most recent details, so I could be thinking of something from the prediction phase before the E3 announcement. While I'm digging the "lost civilization" vibe, I still want to go to a hub town and speak with NPCs, makes the world feel more alive as the monsters and animals are just obstacles/part of the wilderness.

>Level of hype:
About the same as Skyward Sword's, but with a sensible level of doubt as the game could easily become a cakewalk/chore in the whole scheme of collecting shit for crafting.

>Theories:
It's the child timeline and meant to lead up the events of Four Swords Adventures (explaining how this timeline's Ganon got a trident, which would then become the weapon of choice for Ganon II in FSA).

Villages are in but just weren't shown and multiple collectibles state they can be sold for money, rupees are probably still in.

rupees are a thing, they must have been taken out for the demo because they serve no purpose but the opals confirm their existence

From what I saw you get interrupted a grand total of once then the voice fucks off until you continue the plot.

Anyone know if they fucking got it? While it's a certainty they were in there trying to steal it, noone knows if they succeeded or not.

Could a game running on a dev kit even be used on a retail wiiU anyway?

Show us a picture of a game from 99 that looks EXACTLY like this.

We'll wait right here for you, cupcake.

So who's voicing Link's grunts and yells this time?

Also it's funny you say this because back when Wind Waker was revealed I first saw scans of it in some now-defunct magazine. I'd never seen cel-shaded graphics before and didn't quite know what the fuck I was looking at. 12-year-old me legitimately thought it was a GBA game at the time.

Is this your first cel-shaded game?

Does it irritate anyone else that there are thousands of people on Youtube that are re-uploding the same exact footage that they downloaded from Youtube?

worst part is the view count they get

Not really, no. Turn up the brightness and it'd look like complete shit.

Other than kidnap little girls, destroy an entire island and presumably its inhabitants, unleash curses upon the sea, murder two Sages and was generally a violent and murderous prick.

Now I'm hoping for a delicious brown mechanic chick to be in the game. Given all the tech, hopefully we get some kind of mechanic girl.

I wouldn't push it on Link either, he's usually just a puppet of Zelda. Also, much as I like WWdorf, his words ring pretty hollow with all the murder and destruction he did once he actually got his hands on power.

Can anyone post the comparison shots of the old man with the King and Ganondorf?
>>
>>342299224
It wasn't all Zelda.

Remember that the one who originally sent Link on his quest was the tree. And the owl supported him. Not just the owl, but the fairies too. Everyone who knew what was going on only supported Zelda's decisions and Link's actions. No one could have predicted what would have happened.

What I don't is why OoT Link was so rushed, nothing had happened to begin with, Ganondorf only had a plan, yes he made treats to those with the stones but in the end he had to keep a low profile and neither Darunia and the King Zora where worried about it but not desperate.

Why did everyone pushed Link? Was everyone uneasy because it was a post war times?
>>
>>342300229
Zelda and Link were both having nightmares of a doomed future. Zelda was freaking out believing it was real, and nobody would believe her but Link. The Deku Tree was aware that Link had a future, because something was weird about how Link had been left on his doorstep as an infant. The Owl would have been cool with anything Link was doing, whether it was saving Hyrule or going to a strip club. That is probably everyone that was really in on the overall situation.
