any cute trap anons on?
I hate open world games
anon this general isn't going to stay alive for 6 months
What kinds of unique playthroughs are you guys planning? I'm planning to do a naked spear only run and if there are bananas ingame I will only eat those
>>145716360
speedrun
>>145716360
Tin Man with a Heart of Gold
I will don full iron suit, and dual shields, and I will not kill a soul.
How will I get through the snowy parts in an iron suit? I will either:
A. Use the Fire Rod to create a clear zone of burning shrubbery.
B. Create a campfire, and warm up my suit and then run through those parts like a human torch, after ingesting something to give me heat resistance.
In both cases, I will reset the entire game if I inadvertently kill anything in the process.
>>145717124
you still have to kill the final boss
good fucking luck
It's too early to have this general anon
>>145716896
speedruns of this game are going to be super interesting, I hope the speedrunning community picks this game up when it comes out
>>145717278

No, the final boss is the real Link.

what should our first meme be? :)
is there an official release date yet or is it just 2017? I don't know how I'm supposed to wait that long I might die
>>145719567

>>145719567
Hylian Heat
Yeah, if you all can go ahead and just post every webm that exists of the game, that'd be swell.
Has anyone translated the any more of the Sheikah text yet?
>>145722207
yeah, look
my dick
>>145722760
I wonder if there'll be real stalfos/children
>>145722207
God damn
>>145713740
This.
This right here is why people don't hang out with you /vg/.
>>145722872
I think Stalfos/Stalbabies are two different things.
Stalfos are dead beings revived. Stalbabies are like poes and form from the bones of any dead.
Have they released a release date yet?
Also the ground looks kinda ugly in all of the webms, i'm scared what they showed in official videos so far were the NX version
If emulation gets better or NX turns out to be puppies and sunshine I'll actually be getting this game. What I've seen of it makes me smile.
So apparently you can sell swag for money in this game
But I haven't seen any sort of shop or town in the previews
>>145734570
no bully
>>145734356
They removed all NPCs (except for Old Man and the Sheikah monks) and town/s from the demo.
Actually, I wonder how they'll tackle the towns in this game (since there's got to be more than the usual 2). Guessing Castle Town won't be in, but maybe they'll go Zelda II on everyone's ass and bring back Darunia Town and Kasuto and such.
>>145741895
That makes sense
>>145741895
I would love for them to do real towns. The game from the demo seems dead, but its the demo so its expected. I just want a living, breathing Zelda.
>>145741895
I have a feeling each sector will have at least one major settlement in it, but I think it's more likely they'll pull from more than just Zelda 2 for naming them.
Towns like Windfall, Outset, Ordon, Skyloft, or even obscure places like Village of the Blue Maiden or Animal Village could make an appearance. (Fingers crossed that Clock Town bullshits its way in.)
>>145713334
Thanks for making this general, OP. Now I can actually follow a thread and still do work.
>>145741895
Maybe they'll have new settlements, like a tree-top village of Skull Kids in the forest, or if we get the ability to breathe underwater we could have an underwater Zora city.
>>145748797
>find random hole in the ground
>leads you to Clock Town just like you remember it
Am i the only one to think the game looks pretty bad?
I mean sure we've seen a few good places but overall everything looks blurry especially from afar
>>145713334
>everything looks blurry especially from afar
Just like in real life.
What the hell is the Shrine of Resurrection and why does Link wake up there?
Anyone else notice how everything is clearly in the past tense, as if Link was knowingly buried in this place with his clothing for the intent of reawakening? The clothes he gets are so short that both his bare midriff and ankles are showing, making it seem like if Link was buried naked but with his clothing next to him, he must have been younger at the time. Link literally "grew" inside the Shrine. Not to mention his title shot resembles a drawing from the original Legend of Zelda game, and the whole game design seems to draw from the idea of going back to the roots of what Zelda was (open ended, exploratory gameplay).
Any theories as to where Breath of the Wild falls into the timeline? Clearly the Koroks and Temple of Time is present.
>>145758241
Pre-WW, or a brand new timeline, or a merging of everything.
Take your pick.
am I the only one who believes the Deku Trees planted in Wind Waker have something to do with Hyrule rising from the ocean again?
They did say forests would grow around the Deku Trees, so that would mean land should rise up I guess
>>145758241
>seeds
pic related
>>145758528
I'm personally thinking of a Post-WW (post Phantom Hourglass more specifically)
The temple of time is there because it was (lore-wise, since it's after OOT) in WW.
The korok are there from WW, and the blue tunic comes from WW (speaking of which they haven't shown the blue tunic in the demo)
>>145760326
I believe it's without a doubt after WW, but not in new Hyrule, because the Temple of Time is there like you said.
I've only seen people who say that it's after Twilight Princess defend themselves by saying that the bridge is from Lake Hylia, but they're different bridges and they can be in different timelines
unlike the Koroks
I'm hoping we see Deku Tree(s) in this game so damn much
and I hope you get to climb right to the top of the fucker
and I hope Rito Postmen are at Death Mountain too
I just want the WW races/tribes to not be exclusive to that game
also I may be reaching, but the top of Ganon's Tower looks similar to the designs of the Ancient Relics, but that could just be because of how it's meant to be a wind pattern
>>145760326
>>145760797
>implying it's more likely for it to be Hyrule after waters have receded vs. ruined Hyrule about to get the coup de grace and go underwater.
>>145761017
I've wanted a game like that for years but
"Once upon a time, long ago, the Koroks took on human forms, but when they came to live on the sea, they took these shapes. Now they fear people... but to me, they will ever be my cherished little children."
— Great Deku Tree
>>145761127
Fuck. Well, there goes that theory.
>>145761245
if they ever do a spin off, even if they copy paste sections of this map, for a simple Sheikah game, where you fight against Ganon's army before the entirety of Hyrule is submerged beneath the ocean, after you've secured the Tri-Force and make a wish to the Gods
that would be great
but the fact there's not hero in that time makes me believe that it'd need to be a spinoff, which is sad
imagine a Zelda Chronicles game, where they just do a bunch of short games, based on different established backstories like the people banished to the Twilight Realm or the land on Earth before Skyloft was created
>>145718154
just parry
manslaughter the boss, by making his own actions kill him
>>145719772
I can't believe I seen that fuck, when I was watching the trailer for the first time in the stream then forgot to mention it completely, when hardly anybody had talked about it
I'm fucking pumped for all of the bosses in this game, but I hope they're just minibosses so dungeons have creative enemies also and not just bigger versions of the rock guy or something
>>145722207
do you think the gears and screws that the Ancient Relics drop will be really valuable, in terms of uses and not just how many rupees you can get from them? I'm hoping the crafting system is good, since I want to make a sword from meteorite
>>145717351
There have been like 2 dozen Breath of the Wild threads on "normal" /v/ for the past couple of hours. /vg/ was created precisely to create one thread for a game that was getting a whole bunch on /v/.
>>145762117
pretty much, once the thread calm on /v/ we'll probably see an increase of posting in this general too
>>145762328
He also forgets that there aren't thirty years of Zelda to talk about.
>>145753434
The game looks fine.
>>145758241
>the outlook peak from Breath of the Wild is actually the peak in the Zelda 1 artwork.
Mind = Blown.
GUYS. What if you make it off the plateau and find your first townand it's modern day
Sony's president wants to play Breath of the Wild and can't wait for the release.
http://wholesomegamer.com/2016/06/16/playstations-shuhei-yoshida-says-hes-excited-zelda-e3-stage/
>>145763781
Is this from the demo or released footage by nintendo?
the footages released by nintendo do tend to look better and i've seen some screenshots that clearly didn't look fine, regardless of compression or not
>>145764534
Looks like it's from Kotaku. Someone blew up the image a little though. Prob to fit a wallpaper.
http://www.kotaku.com.au/2016/06/all-the-ways-in-which-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-looks-incredible/
>>145764534
By Nintendo.
Compression is what is making the visuals bad, the trailer AND people recording from the TV both look great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY0i9OL96-E
MEME MAGIC
>>145765849
Damn, I was about to post this.
So let's pool together all that we know about the game's timeline placement.
1. The statue of Hylia from Skyward Sword is in the game in the Temple of Time.
2. Rock salt from the "ancient sea."
3. Koroks from Wind Waker are back.
4. Eastern Abbey is next to the Forest of Spirits.
5. Spectacle Rock from NES Zelda.
6. Calamity Ganon took over only 100 years ago.
7. A floating sky ship.
8. Sheikah are prominent.
9. The royal family is referred to in the description for the blue tunic.
I know where the game takes place, but I want to see if you guys figure it out.
>>145765849
>>145765934
Why? Is this from /v/ or some other site?
>>145766238
Someone managed to decipher the text and translate the sheikah writing. I first saw it on youtube. I figured this general would have fun wracking their brains with it.
I'm curious if we'll have underwater exploration
We have to right? I kinda like the lakebed temple location being so deep underwater.
>>145766476
>go into the sea
>it's as deep as the Great Plateau and the rest of the world is high.
>>145766552
that would make my dick diamonds but we would need some sort of underwater mount and item
>>145766110
I don't understand what you mean by number 4
>>145766110
I actually do not have the slightest idea.
>>145766657
You can't see Eastern Abbey, but in ALttP and more obviously in ALBW, the Eastern Palace is next to a forest. But that may not be what I'm referring to, by mentioning it, because in the ALttP guide, it says that it was once a former Hyrule Castle.
Are they the same? That's for you to speculate.
>>145766476
You know, I just noticed something.
The only 3D, mainline Zelda that didn't have any sort of underwater whatsoever was also the only 3D, mainline Zelda that took place on the FUCKING OCEAN.
I don't like how opening chests no longer has the classic sound effect and pose.
>>145767450
I say they should save that for big chests.
I don't want it for every small one considering how common they are.
>>145767450
I thought this
I was sad that he doesn't turn around and lift some shit into the air
but like >>145767614 says
I'm hoping big chests are crazy big now or just look extremely unique
Ok, place your bets for how the world borders will be.
>Mountains too high to climb
>Endless sea on horizon
>Invincible monsters
>Invisible walls
>Visible walls
>>145767450
I also do not have much faith in the breakable items. I understand they want to shake up the combat system by forcing you to be familiar with a variety of weapons but it seems mitigated by the massive amount of inventory space Link has. What will happen is that people will farm spears and clubs and spam coast on that while exploring or dungeon diving instead of collecting as you go.
>>145767873
All 4
>>145768024
>All 4
But those are 5.
I'm still annoyed they still have Hylian be English with a different alphabet.
Especially since Zelda was clearly singing in something that definitely wasn't English in Skyward Sword.
en daʃeʋu, no be̞ ʃo̞ndʊ tʏe̞ ʃʊtʊ keuænu sa le̞
>>145768150
Language evolves in history, the Zelda games are so far from eachother the hylian language clearly changed.
>>145734570
I'd like to see your Fire Propagation physics though.
>>145767873
Link explodes into a shower of gore when he crosses the world border.

Or a sandstorm that's too strong to traverse. I doubt it'll pull a Fallout 3 with invisible walls, though.

“I just played Zelda! The new Zelda game. You know, open world, and hunting. And I had a bizarre feel, this feels like Horizon. This is a epic, huge game. I can not wait to play Zelda again when it comes out.”
Has anyone found the sheikah eye or z icon on nintendo's e3 page? I just noticed that there were things hidden on the page and today is the final day.
>>145771397
Final day for what?
>>145741895
They didn't remove them, you just can't travel outside the plateau. They explicitly stated that the plateau was just a place overrun with bokoblins, and it's also the smallest region in the game. You'll have to venture out of the tutorial area to find people.
>>145770665
trailer shows Link jumping into water with a spear out
fishing this way got confirmed
but also
probably first game in the series where you can fight with a weapon. whilst swimming
which can also mean
maybe a trident weapon will be found in the lake or the ocean
>>145771058
kek what an asshole, pretty good though
>>145771751
you get my nintendo points for finding hidden items on nintendo's e3 page. 10 for sheikah slate, 20 for sheikah eye, 30 for z icon.

>>145771397
>>145771892
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94XISs8UKlQI literally made a thread about this, so that people will answer it for me and a guy posted this, thanks /v/
>>145768024
You have tiny inventory space, which will likely be upgradeable, and the stick weapons of the plateau are tutorial weapons. I imagine the farther you go out the more durable shit you find.
>>145772025
not sure why I didn't think about youtube. thanks
>>145768024
>massive amount of inventory space Link has
What?
In stream they were constantly dropping weapons to pick up better ones because their inventory was full
>>145772106
I'm thinking blacksmiths will help you to repair them
only with some weapons though, since there are rusted swords and when the Fire Rod broke in the Polygon player's video it stayed in the inventory just without the top third of it, so I'm guessing you can get it repaired. I'm hoping it's at a cost of materials/ores and not just rupees
>>145772131I thought the same exact thing anon
>>145767873
It'll be like the Spider-Man 1 movie game. You run out, flip backwards, and say "I can't let Uncle Ben's killer get away!"
>>145772634
Toby Maguire voices Link for this one line
Am I the only one sensing serious shenanigans in regard to the plot?
Like, it shows you Ganon from the start, and you encounter the Old King really early. Players coming from WW may see the Old King and be inherently trusting.
I don't think the "the Old King is really Ganondorf" thing is legit, but I do question OK's motives. As I also question the nature of the Ganon Calamity.
"Oh, you need to go and beat the only thing keeping me from entering my castle and getting at the Triforce."
I mean, fucking seriously? Am I taking crazy pills?
>>145771878
I was referring to him saying why we didn't go underwater in WW .
I cant take deep sea shit. Its my one weakness in any media.

No.
>>145773298
Fuck. Forgot about that. Hyrule was deserted though, right?
>>145773457
Hyrule proper was in theory deserted. He still sentenced generations to live drinking their own piss and resorting to cannibalism and population culls.
>>145773109
I've met three people who have said that now
one person quit Monster Hunter because he had to hunt something in the water and he got too scaredhttps://youtu.be/Q0uMwRs42PA?t=2328
the ocean isn't that scary
>>145773067
The plot might be more complex than we expect. I mean, they even deleted villages in the demo to avoid spoilers.
>>145773749
I don't think so. I think the Great Plateau is empty in general, vacated in the wake of Calamity Ganon.
You only find villages once you jump off it.
>>145773727
I have seen that.
Im the only person I know with this shit. It ruins what seems like fun game. MH3U didnt give me this though because you can fight the same shit on land as you can in the water so I didnt get the same "OH SHIT" moment. The big underwater dragon eel was cool.
HEY THERE MORONS.
JUST POPPING IN TO REMIND YOU FUCKING RETARDS THAT THERE'S NO WAY THIS GENERAL CAN REMAIN HEALTHY IN THE TIME BETWEEN NOW AND WHEN THE GAME ACTUALLY RELEASES AND THAT ANY TIME THIS GENERAL COULD HAVE HAD AS A SUCCESSFUL AND ENJOYABLE COMMUNITY IS BEING SQUANDERED BY STARTING THIS THREAD SO EARLY.
FUCKING END THE THREADS. STOP POSTING. WAIT UNTIL THE GAME IS MUCH MUCH MUCH CLOSER TO LAUNCHING. SPLATOON GENERAL STARTED BARELY 1 MONTH BEFORE RELEASE AND IT WAS STILL A ROUGH MONTH WHERE THE COMMUNITY AND THREAD ALMOST TURNED TO ROTTEN GARBAGE.

It's gonna be terrible.
I've played one Zelda game in my life, but this looks amazing. Kinda wanna play the entire series now
Have an urge to play a Zelda game, but I also need to get through my backlog. As such, debating Darksiders 2. But debating which version of Darksiders 2 to play. Normal or the Deathfinitive Edition. Could stream it. Not sure.

So then make it into Zelda General. Leave BotW out of the OP. That'd work fine.
>>145775162

I don't give a fuck. I'm annoyed that you guys are so fucking stupid. BotW general seems like an alright idea, but you guys are literally fucking ruining it.
>>145771819
But we've seen the snow zones?
>>145775242
>you guys are literally fucking ruining it
how? So far people have been discussing the game and sharing tidbits of humor, discussing how this game will tie in with the rest.
>>145775567
>how?
I explained. I have a lot of experience with /vg/. I know what I'm talking about.
>By the time you actually have the game in your hands to play and discuss, this thread will be completely infested by waifufags/trips/cancer and memes. In about a month, you'll run out of stuff from E3 to discuss and you're gonna fill the gap with shitposting and fanart.
You cannot have a general thread about a game that hasn't released. The only hope fo rthis thread is to make it a LoZ general.
>>145775242
>I don't give a fuck. I'm annoyed that you guys are so fucking stupid. BotW general seems like an alright idea, but you guys are literally fucking ruining it.
If discussing a game does not fit you you are invited to leave the thread as this thread does not seem to be for you
I do not understand why, by the way, you compare this general to the splatoon general when the two games are extremely different. There is a lot of things to discuss about BotW, may it be the already revelead content or speculating on the story, gameplay mechanics and such.
There is a lot of mystery around the game that splatoon did not have before release.
Oh boy, here comes the usual /vg/ drama. Now I remember why I stick to /v/.
>>145775805
>I do not understand why, by the way, you compare this general to the splatoon general
Because Splatoon even had several open beta demos that we all got a chance to play, and the general was STILL a fucking mess because there wasn't enough stuff to discuss. BotW didn't even have something like the Splatoon Global Testfires where the whole community got a bunch of hands-on time.
>There is a lot of things to discuss about BotW
Not enough to sustain a general thread and all ti's discussions for a year.
>There is a lot of mystery around the game that splatoon did not have before release.
Your experiences with it are finite. The amount of material that exists out there for you to examine is finite. You can't have a healthy general if you're likely to run out of things to discuss in less than a month you dipshit.
It's too soon. You should just stick with threads on /v/ or amend this general to be Legend of Zelda related in the broadest sense.
>>145774320
What the fuck?
dude no one cares about your opinion.
If the general dies, the general dies. No one cares if you're a part of it, you most definitely won't be missed.
>>145776230
>If the general dies, the general dies.
You're a fucking moron. That's not how generals work. If you make one, you're supposed to maintain indefinitely. /vg/ is not a board for throwaway FotM discussions. It's for threads that need a less disruptive home because of the nonstop discussion they engender.
>No one cares if you're a part of it
How fucking stupid must you be to think I care about my own participation? Like that's an important priority for me? To "be part of it"? Get real.
>>145776385
Please, fuck off from whenever you come from and never turn back.

You definitely should. You can emulate pretty much all of them easily and, nostalgia aside, they're all very fun.

And I meant "dying" not for the thread literally being deleted, rather the discussion within it.
> It's for threads that need a less disruptive home because of the nonstop discussion they engender.
Yet you're the ONLY one being disruptive here.
so what kind of crap do you guys think will be in the Zelda Mystery Box?
>>145776887
>So why are you here?
To encourage this thread to straighten up and fly right by either stopping altogether or broadening it's theme to include Zelda stuff of all sorts. I'd like there to be a healthy general for Breath of the Wild. That can't happen if you guys start a year early and start compiling cancerous memes and tripfriends or whatever.
>And I meant "dying" not for the thread literally being deleted, rather the discussion within it.
I know. I'm saying it's basically shitposting on /vg/ if you try to start a general that you don't intend of maintaining "forever".
>Yet you're the ONLY one being disruptive here.
Yes and? That has nothing to do with the reason that /vg/ exists.
>>145777091
Hopefully at least one game.
>>145777208
>To encourage this thread to straighten up and fly right by either stopping altogether or broadening it's theme to include Zelda stuff of all sorts.
Why do you think you have the audacity to run this thread? Besides, there's absolutely no way to predict how this thread (whether it changes to LoZ general or not) will become in the end.

1. This board is for the posting of video game "general" threads, which are long-term, recurring threads about a specific topic.
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild sounds like a specific topic to me. But I'd be perfectly fine making it into a LoZ general if it stops people like you from spazzing out thinking you can control everything.
>>145778028
I don't think so
for reference the Mario box had an amiibo, a t shirt, a Mario hat and a pin
so a Link hat maybe
a pin
an amiibo
and a t shirt
seems worthless
I don't understand how it's a mystery box since you can still buy the Mario one

>Why do you think you have the audacity to run this thread?
I don't.

Yes there is. Experience and common sense. I've seen it happen before. This won't be any different.
> It might be really healthy, positive general,
Only if it's handled properly.
>it might be a cancerous meme spawn pool
Guaranteed if things keep going on the current course.
>But there's no way of knowing until we have a thread.
Wrong. Generals started for unreleased games that are more than 30 days away are guranteed to be a shitshow
>But I'd be perfectly fine making it into a LoZ general if it stops people like you from spazzing out thinking you can control everything.
I don't think I can control things. I think I can point out how fucking stupid you people are being and help you to save yourselves from your own retardation.
The only hope for this thread is to expand to encompass ALL Legend of Zelda discussions. That way you'll have relevant and interesting subject matter to discuss for however long it takes BotW to release.

I tried to start a Zelda general a year ago but I didn't do the work to make a decent OP. I say this should be called Comfy Zelda general.
Man, I haven't been part of such a political process since Etrian Odyssey general and dungeon crawler general split into two entities.
Also yes, I have the backlog problem too.
Man, there's some hot meta garbage in this thread
Start posting some thread-relevant content or just let it go and have normal topical threads on /v/ until you actually have a game to discuss and pick apart (letter option recommended)
I've seen some footage of people attacking the old man. Do his reactions change depending on the weapon?
Also, is the only known clothing reaction when you're not wearing anything at all?
Anybody have any of these?

Until I can up with something good, this might as well be a remake of Zelda 1.

About the SS split-timeline theory, NOPE.
Demise said after being defeated (not killed) that he'll survive as a curse that poor Ganondorf was the subject of.
And... Koroks.
Koroks only exist after the Great Flood.
My theory is: This is after Phantom Hourglass, with an ruined (by Calamity Ganon) advanced kingdom (see the Shrine of Resurrection) plunged back to medieval technology.
We know by the videos the Temple of Time is in and it has a Hylia statue.
But why CALAMITY Ganon? Why not Ganon?

What if it's a new "The Hero Dies" timeline.
Link dies, is buried by the Sheikahs, Ganon rules for 100 years, the Sheikah almost die out. Eventually Link finally wakes up.
The naming of "Shrine of Resurrection" just too heavily implies that Link has been killed at least once.
It's sad to see that Wii U owners get cucked and NX will be the best version (better graphics and probably an even better framerate)

Answer me this zeldrones. When you go into the temple of time in TP, is it time travel or entering another dimension? If it's time travel, how does Link still exist despite not being born yet? If it's an alternate dimension, how come the same Ooccoo are there?

I know. I'm just trolling for follow and to expose any savvy Zelda fans who may be hiding their power levels. Unfortunately you are not one, or you would know that the reason Fi says that he's conquered time is to establish how Demise was able to curse beyond time/the wish of the Triforce.
>Koroks only exist after the Great Flood.
Not necessarily. It's said that the Koroks were once children, but how do we know that the Kokiri aren't named after the Koroks? In the Wind Waker, the traveling gorons also confuse Link for someone else. Like they're familiar with the Kokiri, but he says "No, it couldn't be."
>My theory is: This is after Phantom Hourglass, with an ruined (by Calamity Ganon) advanced kingdom (see the Shrine of Resurrection) plunged back to medieval technology
NOPE. Ganon is dead for good in the Wind Waker. They also already confirmed Spectacle Rock is the same as the NES games, which was never flooded.
>>145797214
>Like they're familiar with the Kokiri, but he says "No, it couldn't be."

>tfw I've been looking at the thumbnail and thinking his eyebrows were his eyes all this time.
>>145797214
>hero saved gorons
Yeah, how many hundreds of years ago? Even if we account for a Big O-style memory wipe, there are still hundreds of years between OoT/TWW, enough that a Link's reincarnation was skipped. Ganondorf broke out during a new generation's rule, and now there's a new generation on Outset Island which has a tradition, so at least on generation had to have practiced the hero thing. That's a minimum of 300 years.
Gorons can live for at least 400 years, but those gorons are still young.

>>145761547

>unlike the Koroks
My money's on Fallen Hero. Who's to say Koroks couldn't have evolved in that timeline, too? Both Fallen Hero and Adult timelines begin with the final battle in Ocarina of Time.
Post-flood Old Hyrule works too, but the way Ganon's sealed in Hyrule Castle REALLY makes me think we're looking at the Imprisoning War, here, or some time after it, where Ganon's trying to project himself (like he did as pic related) from the Dark World into Hyrule
>>145818414
Because it's a fairly common international language. But like >>145818491 said, other games had Hylian writing in a syllabery that was basically a cipher for katakana, like these being a cipher for the Roman alphabet.
GAME IS GOING TO BE AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE VERSION OF ORIGINAL ZELDA DUE TO TIMELINE CONVERGING SCREENCAP THIS
what if its a link origin story that gets really meta and has elements from all games in the background and the story is Ganondorf and Zelda being self aware of their constant reincarnations and need Link to break the cycle
>>145818093
Oh you might be unto something here
They used O instead of E
The Hyrule Fantasy
That's the subtitle for the first Zelda game
>>145820424
other than the part about breaking the cycle that's just SS
>>145820424
I would love to see a Ganon who wants to break free of Demise's curse.
And, of course, his plan is to kill Link and Zelda, take their Triforce pieces, and wish it away. Because the curse makes him do it.
Can someone post the timelapse pls?
I wonder what the space imagery is all about.
Every shrine seems to be covered in pictures of constellations, and then there's the meteorites.
>>145820669
SS is more of a master sword origin story but yeah except good
>>145821007
anon did you see the ending of SS? It's the whole reason the reincarnation cycle exists
>>145821198
nah its just bullshit deconstruction where they poke fun of themselves "oh you dont like ganon always being the bad guy, turns out its this dude"
>>145820673
So, obviously Ganon is the most common fulfillment of Demise's curse, but would be fair to say all the series' villains are a result of the curse? Because that's impression I got from the end of SS. It's not so much that Ganondorf is a direct reincarnation of Demise, more that Demise's hate infuses various individuals throughout history with evil will, Ganondorf being the most common due to his own tendency to not die/get resurrected.
>>145784253
that's clearly gonna be the king of hyrule in a shamalahanahon twist scene
>>145821545
>all the series' villains are a result of the curse
No. Skyward Sword explicitly has you destroy the imprisoned with a wish and Demise is sealed forever. Demise was just talking out of his ass.
>>145821545
Yeah that would make sense with various main villains of games who sometimes even aid Ganon (Veran, Onox, Vaati, Yuga) or not (Malladus, Bellum)
>>145821545
No, because Fi calls Demise the origin of all monsters.
While Ganon is not explicitly considered this outside of maybe the NES games, in the Wind Waker he sources his powers from them (in the JP version), as he does in TP from the Twili.
I think the implication with the intro showing all those baddies behind Demise, like Ghirahim, is to indicate that demons have their own hierarchy, of which Demise/Ganon are the top.
>>145822530
>N-no! The events of the game didn't happen b-because I don't want them to!
anon please
>>145822804
"My hate... never perishes. It is born anew in a cycle with no end!"
"I will rise again!"
"Those like you... Those who share the blood of the goddess and the spirit of the hero... They are eternally bound to this curse."
"An incarnation of my hatred shall ever follow your kind, dooming them to wander a blood-soaked sea of darkness for all time!"
Pretty much everything evil in the series is just a direct extension of Demise's anger and hatred
>>145822850

>>145823491
Yeah, except for the part where that's the actual plot of the game itself as apposed to someone outside "no it wasn't like that"
>>145823013
Negative amigo. That's only what it sounds like in the English version if you take it out of context. In the Japanese version, "Demise" doesn't even have a name. The Zelda team invented their own naming convention which changes on context, as something between Final One/Apocalyptic One and Tyrannical Being.
Who is that typical of in Zelda? Ganon.
His curse is just vague because so is who he is before that. Fi says he's rumored to change appearance throughout generation, to foreshadow Ganon has a tendency to change.
Ganon even curses Link and Zelda similarly at the end of TP, as if rekindling this. And TP is the bridge between the old games and the new. It is basically a retelling of the Japanese ALttP manual story.
>>145823013
>>145823990
Aren't you guys basically saying the same thing, or am I missing something?
>>145823990
absolutely nothing that you said discounts the claim that everything that goes wrong in Hyrule is an extension of Demise's hatred
also it's natural for Ganondorf to curse Zelda and Link at the end TP since it's the one game where he actually dies while still in human form and is totally filled with hatred (as opposed to the ending of WW where he's much more solemn and depressed, possibly filled with regret)
>>145824542
After SS, the ending of Wind Waker, with Ganondorf dying in human form and being regretful, felt like the years being sealed underwater had diluted the influence of Demise's curse on him. He still wanted to take over Hyrule, but he had more of his own motivation, and also didn't become as monstrous in the process.
God damn the Zelda 25th Anniversary is incredible. If there's one thing i'm really really excited about in BotW, it's the soundtrack. Have they released any info on it yet?
>>145824775
Exactly
This is the Ganondorf that became beast Ganon at the end of OoT and was defeated while in this form, but then somehow reverted to human after this
TP Ganondorf willingly changes back from beast form before he's killed to try and use what power he has left to kill Link and Zelda
>>145824403
He's saying that Demise represents every bad guy. Vaati, Bellum, Onox and Veran, Malladus, DeathEye, Majora's Mask, Zant. Etc.
Not only would that not make sense sometimes in the story - Malladus was sealed at LEAST 100 years before Ganondorf was killed in the Wind Waker (Bryne and Anjean are over a hundred), and Zant is one of the Twili who has lived for thousands of years; but it simply can't be because that would make there more than one source of monsters.
Demise wasn't making some poetic metaphor hearkening to every villain in the series, is all I'm saying.
>>145825124
*harkening I mean, not hearkening
>>145825124
More than one incarnation of Demise's hated can exist at one time (i.e. Veran & Onox, Ganondorf and Malladus)
>Zant is one of the Twili who has lived for thousands of years
The Twili are descendants of the Dark Interlopers who were banished to the Twilight Realm by the goddesses for their advances in evil magic; in no way is it ever stated that Zant or any other Twili has been alive "for thousands of years"
>>145825124
I don't see why it's impossible for Demise to influence all the villains, but I suppose it depends on how you interpret the curse. A lot of people seem to think he's reincarnated as Ganondorf in a similar way to the Hero being reincarnated. Seems to me it's more like his anger just influences people to antagonize Zelda's descendants and Link's reincarnations.
>>145824780
I don't know anything about info, but I'll link the songs I'm aware of. All other music in the demo is subtle and minimalistic to better fit with the world, so no more overworld music. There's a little tune when the old man speaks, a couple piano notes out in the wilderness or in a shrine, etc.
From the looks of it, bosses or mini bosses will have have full music. Hopefully towns and other important events will too.

>>145825771
Burden of proof.
Show me something that indicates the other villains have as much claim to the throne of Demon King as Ganon does. He is literally, subtitle Ganondorf; Devil in Japan. Demise is Mara. There is only one Mara in Buddhism.
And okay, yeah. Zant is part of the wicked one's descendants or whatever, but he feels their hate, presumably because he and Midna are all reincarnates of those people. Thus why Midna and the royal family felt the need for them to live isolated, which created the schism that set in motion the story.
>>145825974
Am I the only one that thinks the trailer music sounds like steaming shit?
>>145826203
The quotes from Demise were already posted in this thread >>145823013
He just says that his hatred will keep coming back and keep the need to be stopped by Link and Zelda, the burden of proof lies on you to find where it says the incarnation of hatred can only manifest itself as one being at a time
>>145826203
>but he feels their hate, presumably because he and Midna are all reincarnates of those people.
>reincarnates
I'm not sure that word means what you think it means.
>>145826203
malladus also has the title of demon king
>>145825915
I don't like that theory, because it trivializes emotion, and I feel that goes against the Buddhist themes in the story, like the The Spider's Thread allegory in Skyward Sword.
So now nobody in Hyrule can get angry because they let Demise influence them? Might as well be walking automatons then, deprived of free will.
>>145826470
I enjoy it when it gets going, but I also think there's a bit too much going on- maybe because it was trying to fit the scenes in the trailer instead of being a proper song first. It doesn't sound much like a Zelda theme to me regardless.
>>145826798
there isn't much free will in Zelda
>we're going to make a wish granting object and watch everyone fight over it for shits and giggles

>oh shit, we fucked up somehow and there isn't a reincarnation of the hero to stop the villain, let's just flood everything
>>145826891
I think the end where it gets going is the worst part. I dunno, I guess the Chinese motif feels forced to me.
>>145826475
That's not the way this works. I've provided a counterargument already to your claim. You're the one who needs to back it. There is one Demise in Skyward Sword. There is one reincarnate of Ganon. You're saying there are more, multiple at a time even. Prove it.
>>145826705
Because Spirit Tracks is not canon (Hyrule's naming spits on the last will of the King to not call it that). The only reason it takes place a hundred years after TWW is because Iwamoto didn't like Tetra. Also, Ganon is dead, so it's inconsequential. He might be the de facto Demon King when Ganon is unavailable, like Ghirahim. Ultimately it doesn't matter.
>>145826798
>So now nobody in Hyrule can get angry because they let Demise influence them?
I didn't/wouldn't say that. It takes more than getting angry to reach Zelda villain levels. Demise's curse just pushes certain people to that extra level of evil. Not sure why you're pushing this alleged Buddhism theme that much either.
>>145827371
>Spirit Tracks isn't canon because I don't want it to be!
no point trying to argue with your headcanon i guess
>>145827371
Who's to say the manifestation of Demise's hatred is just Ganon?
>>145827371
Your counterargument was that the other big baddies don't stack up to Ganon's power, but nowhere does Demise say that
1. Anyone influenced by my hatred will have a certain amount of strength
2, At any given time only 1 being can be influenced by my hatred
Occam's Razor applies
>>145827173
Free will is relative to an observer's perspective anyway. It's not an art, so it can't be quantified like visuals, music, or video games if you look hard enough. At what point, you think it can, is your own free will in application.
>>145827567
Cause it's present in Skyward Sword, and that allegory seems to deny what you were initially saying. For the record, I'm a Christian, but there aren't many Christian motifs in modern Zelda; so I wouldn't claim Ganondorf is a stand-in for Satan or even a Gnostic Christian "Satan/"self (you are realizing that flesh is the word self backwards without an h), without going out on a limb. Now Mara fits, because he's god of the underworld, has legions that he draws power from, and is part of the cycle of life (reincarnating being a prominent theme in Zelda).
What will be the musical instrument for Link this time?
We've got Ocarinas, Harp, Howl, Baton, Guitar, Drums, Pipes and Panpipes so far.
>>145828385
My point was that free will is already relatively trivialized in the Zelda series
>>145828574
Rocks.
>>145827939
The fact there's only one Demise and one Ganon. We're just going in circles.
>>145828274
Even if you're going by strictly the English version to subvert the fact Japanese don't deal in plurals, he still says "an incarnation." Not "incarnations."
>>145827217
I fully agree with the Chinese motif thing. The reason I like that part of the song because it's more cohesive than the rest of the trailer, but it still sounds very out of place for the game.

>you are realizing that flesh is the word self backwards without an h
While mildly interesting in English this is not the case in Greek or Hebrew and you bringing it up seems strange to me and personally the way you worded it as well as bringing it up and all undermines my trust in your knowledge of these topics.
>>145828830
But why does his hatred have to only take the form of Ganon? It could influence other villains, even if we assume it only influences one villain at a time.
>>145828830
"An incarnation of my hatred shall ever follow your kind"
all this says is that whenever a hero's spirit is around or an incarnation of Demise is around they're going to try to stop each other
Why the fuck does it matter whether Demise's curse only applies to Ganon or not? If Vaati, Majora's Mask, Malladus, etc. are products of Demise's curse, what changes? Nothing! So why even bother arguing about it? Demise's curse is clearly just an explanation for how certain character's reincarnate, so unless we see those villains reincarnate, it makes no difference whether the curse applies to them or not.
>>145829547
Because what else is the point /vg/ if people aren't going to argue about minutiae of video game lore?
>>145808037
Anybody got a video/webm of them rising up?
I can't seem to find it.
>>145829547
this
I don't know why buddhistfag is so adamant about it, but he also thinks Spirit Tracks isn't canon because he doesn't want it to be so I guess he just has some issues to work out for himself
>>145828875
I had forgot what the music sounded like in that teaser. I much like that.
>>145828914
I brought it up as a joke.
>>145829028
Let's say, for the sake of argument, that Nintendo planned for the whole Ganon = Demise thing, since at least Ocarina of Time. The Oracles and Majora's Mask were released right after.
First you have to leap over the idea that Ganon isn't Demise necessarily, RIGHT AFTER the game that started it. Then, you have to leap over the idea that curse influences or is (take your pick) more than Ganon, but also his pawns. Then you have to leap over the fact two can be influenced at a time, or that another villain can co-exist with the already present incarnation of his hatred (take your pick). Then, finally you have to assume this applies over the vague connection that Labrynna/Holodrum and Termina share with Hyrule where there are not necessarily even a Link and Zelda to antagonize.
>>145829886
anon are you ok?
>>145829886
Most of those leaps only exist because you're setting up the scenario in a way to make the side against you seem more complicated than it is.
Demise says his anger will follow Hylia's/Zelda's descendants and Link's reincarnations. That's really as specific as his curse gets. Doesn't seem to illogical to say that most, if not all, major villains are influenced by his curse's power.
>>145829886
You're setting up arbitrary criteria Demise's hatred needs to meet, aka pulling shit out of your ass
>>145813976
I meant the rune abilities. You know magnesis, stasis, Etc. We know of 4. Do we know if there will be anymore?
>>145748797
I'm fairly confident that it's in the Adult timeline, so Clock Town is out of the question since nobody was around to stop the Skull Kid from killing everyone ;_;
But a man can dream.
I imagine that the towns that will make it in are:
>Windfall/Kakariko (Same town, if you guys didn't notice; it would have to be pretty high up though, above where Link can find rock salt.)
>Outset/Ordon (Same town; look at their relative locations to death mountain (dragon roost island) in the Wind Waker and TP in relation to each other)
And I imagine several other small settlements, such as maybe a Gerudo outpost or something, maybe carrying the names of the Sages.
What I want to know is this - are the bird people back?
I miss my Zora people; Ruto number 1 waifu
I am so interested in this ... but man ... I got burned on the Wii U and I really don't feel comfortable investing in a new Nintendo console unless it's been out for a year and definitely sticking around with heavy support. And I'm not buying the Wii U version when there's a better version out there. Damn you, Nintendo.
>>145831194
I'd say go for the nx when it has at least 5 games that interest you.
>>145831194
Just wait for the reviews, anon. BotW was designed for the WiiU. The NX version might not be that significant of an improvement.
>>145831437
Yeah, if it's anything like TP then you might as well go with the Wii U version.
>>145831437
Am I the only one that thought the graphics were ridiculously underwhelming? Even for the Wii U. Maybe I'm too used to PC gaming, but geez, that was so washed out just bland.

The goddesses removed their ability to swim so they wouldn't find Hyrule. And if I remember correctly, wasn't that why the great sea is empty besides for ganon's monsters and the fish who mark your chart for some reason?
>>145831604
Nah
I'm so damn tired of realistic graphics any departure is abreathof fresh air
>>145831942
stylized > realism any day
>>145831604
It looks amazing to me.
Like a current-gen sequel to The Wind Waker, which let's be honest, has yet to be topped in the Cel-shaded division.
>>145831858
Tbh senpai, I might buy it again if they make it like Breath of the Wild with more perishable items and having to forage for food/cook to survive instead of get hearts, nonlinear, and with more islands.
>>145831740
Good Luck
With That
>>145832078
There's a reason that Windwaker still looks good after all these years
>>145832306
So you just want a different and better game than SS
>>145832057
Realism can only go so far towards being reality, and it's not a fit for most games anyway. Different stylistic styles often look way better and can be used in more creative ways.
>>145832306
Actually I change my mind. No, I wouldn't. Skyward Sword sucks so much.
Young Impa's banter and staring down Link was literally the only good thing about it.
>>145832078
Those graphics are seriously around the 2003 era. Look at early World of Warcraft. I think that was 2004? It looks slightly better than that screen shot.
It is rediculously dated. The new Yoshi game (God, I forget it's name, it's a yarn game I got for my kid) is absolutely beautiful and still cartoony as all hell. You don't have to have lifelike graphics, just GOOD graphics. Like that yoshi game. This zelda game looks many times worse than that Yoshi game.
>>145832679
Show me a 768x433 screencap of your favorite looking game being streamed and I guarantee you it will look shittier than that pic.
>>145832828
There is a press kit with 4k images from this new zelda game, likely the NX version. It still looks terrible. The high def images only highlight that. You can zoom in on the grass on it's like a single shade of green. Lots and lots of them. There is no variance. It's bad.
>>145815463
It's backwards.
Read it right to left, and you get
"FANTASY THO(?) HYRULO(?)"
In other words, someone mistook an "E" for an "O".
It reads, "THE HYRULE FANTASY"
http://nintendoeverything.com/over-100-monolith-soft-employees-are-working-on-zelda-breath-of-the-wild/
>>145832950
I noticed you didn't provide what I asked for.
>>145832950
the grass does look like crap when you zoom in. the trees also lack shading. there is no ground clutter. the guy kinda has a point
>Did you know Link is actually gay?
From Nintendo themselves.
>>145833181
I don't know if you're trying to troll or false-flag with that pic, but when I'm playing this game, the last thing I'll be worried about is its graphics, I know that much.
>>145825915
This.
Only Link reincarnates.
Zelda is simply one with Hylia's blood, but a new Zelda every time.
The villains of Zelda simply carry Demise's hatred for all that is good, and that is why multiple incarnations of them can exist together (Ganon/Vaati, Ganondorf/Malladus)
>>145833181
It has clutter and shading. Just not done well or hashed out. This could literally be a World of Warcraft screenshot from 2004. World of Warcraft was built to run on crappy computers to maximize the fanbase. EA uses this same tactic for The Sims. But that is PC games. Consoles have limitations. Is this the limit of the NX's capability?
And that is one of their showcase images, it is taken under the best possible conditions for their press kit. And it still looks very subpar for 2016. Saying "it's not about realism" is no excuse for bad graphics. Anything can be beautiful without being lifelike.
>>145831604
Are you really saying that this looks washed out and bland? Come on now.
>>145833435
>when I'm playing this game, the last thing I'll be worried about is its graphics
One day you'll realize that the company is giving you a subpar product when you could buy something that looks like Witcher 3 for the same amount of money. They are being cheap. That's the point.
It may be fun, but you know what, imitation twinkies taste pretty good, too. But there's a reason they cost less than the name brand. Nintendo is selling offbrand twinkies for Hostess prices.
>>145833597
Dude ... the grass. Look at the grass. There's like 3 shades of green on it and the shading is all messed up. The rocks are such a low resolution that they look like poured concrete. The fog is polite globs instead of blankets on the floor as it should be.
>>145833823
Or maybe, and I know this sounds crazy, not everyone gives a shit about the tiniest details of graphics. The game looks fine and has a particularly stylized design.
>>145831047

Checkmate.
I just wanna know where his hat is
>>145834015
Everyone cares about graphics. Everyone wants things that look good. It is human nature. People who say graphics don't matter know they would piss themselves over an Ocarina of Time with 4k graphics.
Just look at Final Fantasy VII. A few years ago there was a PS4 promo that showed the FFVII intro done with PS4 graphics. The entire FF player base squealed like piggies and demanded more information. Now, the game is actually in development. These are the same people that insisted the game was amazing with terrible graphics for the last decade. And it was amazing. But it could be BETTER with better graphics, and that's exactly what is happening with the new FFVII. Because people demanded it even though FFVII was fine as it was.
>>145834259
I would say that all the Standard well know item (Master Sword, Green Tunic, hat, Hero's Bow, Hylian Shield) are end game items
>>145834130
Doesn't that describe the Zelda scenario perfectly? Offbrand plays as well as namebrand, but looks like crap? Checkmate, indeed.
Wow! The wilderness in this game is massive!
Just look at thebreadthof the wild!
>>145834374
End yourself Carlos
>>145833597
You can see exactly where the grass stops being rendered, there's barely any trees, the trees are all identical and have muddy textures up close, there's bad aliasing on everything close-up, there's barely anything in the world.
It feels like far cry 2. Go places, collect things, get bored.
Except this is nintendo we're talking about, so the difficulty of the things in the game is aimed at a playerbase with a max of 12 years old,
It's going to be vapid. Pretty at times, but vapid.It's a step up for the zelda franchise, sure, but the game's mechanics are on Oblivion's level. It's too little, too late.
>>145834106
>liking Ruto
>in 2016
>>145834359
Well the crap is subjective, since I don't think BotW looks bad (I don't think it looks uh-mazing but it definitely has an aesthetic and passes.
But if the gameplay is superior, than who cares?
>>145834268
Literally only simpleton retards go apeshit over stuff like this. It's why CG has become such a demanded and expected thing in the film industry even though it looks like shit when overused.
>>145833181
Even with the short draw distance, it's not THAT bad. The ground is so heavily stylised, that being able to see individual blades of grass (or not) isn't all that important to me. It's noticeable, but it doesn't take away from my desire to buy the game. Besides, it's beta footage. I'm sure it'll be optimized for the NX.
It's not like, say, Oblivion or Skyrim on low settings, where the grass popping into existence before your eyes is so jarring you can't help but notice it every time.
This will be a mix of both anouma's creations, WW and TP. So it will be a mix of all 3 timelines with alot of homage to the original.
The WW only timeline is being parroted by babbies who grew up with windwaker. Anouma is obsessed with trying to top OoT so he'll go all the way for his magnum opus.
>>145834715
It's like oblivion on medium, to be honest.
I doubt the WiiU could run oblivion on max.
>>145834631
Eternal waifu
>>145834268
>People who say graphics don't matter know they would piss themselves over an Ocarina of Time with 4k
Yeah, because people really pissed themselves over Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD. Do you know what people talk about the most when it comes to Wind Waker HD? It wasn't the updated textures. It was the addition of the Swift Sail, an upgrade that vastly improved the gameplay. The only thing that really matters to most people in a game is gameplay. You can make the prettiest, most cinematic walking simulator ever made, but it won't push units unless the gameplay is good.
>>145835058
The gameplay is the one thing we can count on to be banal. it's a zelda game. When's the last time they were challenging? When we were little kids? Even then?
You can't play a real game and then play a zelda game. You'll notice everything wrong with the franchise, especially if you played the witcher or dark souls, since those games kick the shit out of everything botw could hope to be, gameplay wise. (less so witcher)
>>145835590
It's okay, it's meant to be a babies game.
It's just not worth the console price.
STOP ARGUING GRAPHICS AND LET'S TALK LORE YOU SISSY FAGGOTS
Let's recap everything in here:
>Link has been asleep or dead for 100 years
>Everything is in ruins
>There was an ancient sea covering the land
>Koroks
>An old man that suspiciously resembles Daphnes roams about
>Hyrule Castle is not over lake Hylia, like in WW, nor is it near lake Hylia, like in TP
>Hyrule Castle is not near Castle Town, like in OoT
>The Master Sword is rusted, as if it had been wet at some point, and it's rusted in places that would suggest that it wasn't the rain
My best guess is this:
>Adult Timeline
>Post Spirit Tracks
>The Koroks successfully unflooded Hyrule, Daphnes is somehow not dead
>Ganondorf's corpse is uncovered, Hyrule's settlers take the master sword to wherever it belongs
Either:
>Ganon is revived, the hero fails to defeat Ganon, is revived 100 years later
>The sheikah screw with time to bring forth either the hero of the winds or the hero of time
This is supported by the fact that, regardless of whether this is a new hero or not, Daphnes gives him a blue tunic, the blue tunic being described as one "only being worn by those that have earned the trust of the royal family".
In the Wind Waker, Link sports a blue tunic that Daphnes surely would have been aware of being under his green tunic (if you take new game + into account, especially). As such, it makes sense for the old man to give the hero something that reminds him of the hero of his own days. Furthermore, how would the old man have acquired this relic of the royal family and have known the relic's intended use if he was not in the royal family himself?
Lastly, there's one more possibility:
>It's actually a sequel to Zelda II
>Ganon's followers succeeded in killing the hero and reviving Ganon, as Link's purpose is to defeat Ganon, not his followers
>Similar to how Ganon was revived by his followers, Link gets revived by his followers, the Royal family and the shiekah.
?
>>145834950
THEN HURRY UP AND POST HER
>>145835859
Lore? You kill bosses to get things, the things let you get to the next place where there are more things, then you fight ganon and the game is over.
There, i just spoiled the story.
>>145835859
But I really want it to be a Wind Waker sequel with a return of the Hero of Time or the Hero of the Winds.
Those are my two favorite heroes, even if they're all technically the same person.
>>145835859
>only water causes rust.
Oh ffs. It rains you know, and oxygen by itself OXIDIZES metal.
>>145835953
If you don't want to talk lore, why did you bother responding to me?
You know you're not going to make me not want to talk lore by saying that, so I can only assume you're shitposting.
>>145836072
Yeah, but this is the fucking Master Sword, stuff like that wouldn't cause it to rust. Being at the bottom of the sea for thousands of years on the other hand...
>>145836072
Your point is? Either counter with your own interpretation of the lore or can it, mate.
I'm not here to talk chemistry.
>>145835859
I think it probably is the Adult Timeline, especially with the fact that the Koroks we find are the same ones from Wind Waker. I definitely think that the Old Man is a very important character, either the current king of Hyrule or maybe the current king of the Gerudo? Since it has been 100 years, it's possible that the male of the Gerudo tribe has already been born, and since Ganon is still alive, perhaps the Old Man is not affected by Demise's curse?
>>145836289
>maybe the current king of the Gerudo?
This would actually be really interesting to see, though I'm doubting it'll happen.
>>145836289
>>145835859
I'd also like to point out that it absolutely cannot be the child timeline, since Kokiri still exist as late as Twilight Princess
Agitha, Telma, and the fortune teller all have dots on their faces, and they're all unique in that they're the last of their kind in Hyrule.
Agitha is a Kokiri, Telma is a Gerudo, and the Fortune Teller a Sheikah.
As such, with the Kokiri extinct and unable to evolve into Koroks and the Sheikah extinct and unable to build all the stuff seen in the game, I think it's safe to assume it's either Downfall or Adult.
Of course, they may not really be the last of their kind, but they're the only ones you see in the game.
The only one that actually has a reason for being the last one outside of extinction is Telma, since the Gerudo simply fled Hyrule after their war with the Hylians.
However, the idea that they're the last ones is, at least on Agitha's behalf, supported by the fact that Ordon village is in the Kokiri forest, but none of the Kokiri are around to be seen.
>>145836485
>>145836289
HOL UP
what if Daphnes is brown because he's the king of both the gerudo and hyrule
>>145834106
She'd look better with the usual zora tail head instead of the hammerhead
>>145836679
Didn't the Kokiri after OoT leave the forest and turn into normal Hylians, or am I just pulling that out of nowhere because it's late and I'm tired? Otherwise, they could be the ancestors of much of Ordon village.
>Downfall timeline
>Link gets defeated by Ganon in the adult timeline
>Adult timeline
>Link gets defeated, but the ALTTP link wishes that Ganondorf never entered the sacred realm, thus giving OoT link all those years ago a second chance at defeating Ganon. He succeeds
>Child timeline
>the world to which link returns after OoT; he lives as a child
>??? timeline
>child link tries to defeat ganon while wielding the master sword as a child, and fails
>the shiekah seal him and ganon away
???
>>145837532
Ganondorf has pointed ears in the Wind Waker
>>145837642
Forth timeline could be that child link dies and Ganon proceeds with his plan effortlessly and the sheikah revive him where he awakes as an adult
>>145837642
Yeah, I just remembered that Ganon had pointed ears in Wind Waker. My mistake. But anon, your theory is impossible. The Master Sword itself didn't allow Link to wield it because he wasn't old enough. There is no way that Link could have wielded the Master Sword as a child.
>>145838761
Link did it in A link to the past, Wind Waker, link between worlds
the only reason that happened in OoT is because the master sword was too triggered to let a kid touch her when her last master was an adult
I really don't want this to be in a fourth timeline.
I want some closure on Zelda II or the Wind Waker's timeline.
Zelda II's gone almost 30 years without a sequel.
>>145838902
Yeah, I know he used the Master Sword as a child serval times. I'm saying that it is impossible for Link to wield the Master Sword as a child in OoT because it was impossible in the game. Losing to Ganon is something that you can do in OoT. Wielding the Master Sword as a child is not possible is OoT. I very much doubt there is a fourth timeline.
>>145839117
Wind Waker's timeline is closed.
It was resolved when Link reverse-impaled Ganon, and the King wished for everything related to the Zelda series to be gone except Link and Zelda.
There will NEVER ever be a new game on that timeline. Not a canon one anyways. Not that Phantom Hourglass is not a good Zelda.
>>145785345
l-lewd?
>>145837642
So OoT Speedruns literally becoming canon, I see.
... I aprove.
Don't know if windwaker adaptation is happening
>>145840284
PH and ST are canon. What evidence is there otherwise?
If this Link is a reincarnation, and this is in the Adult timeline, he'd have to be a reincarnation of Spirit Tracks or the Hero of the winds, as they carry a separate spirit than the other Links of the series.
The Child timeline and the Downfall timeline both carry the spirit of the hero, as in ALTTP, Link wished for OoT Link to have defeated Ganon, but it never happened from his perspective. ALTTP link went on to have several other adventures and die, passing on his spirit through the downfall timeline.
In OoT, he went back in time, leaving the Adult timeline without a spirit of the hero and thus passing his spirit on through the child timeline.
In the Adult timeline, WW link becomes the hero on his own and passes on his spirit to SS link.
So, if it's in the downfall or Child timelines, it could be any link from SS down to OoT, but if it's in the adult timeline, it would have to be WW/SS
>>145840284
He just wished for Hyrule to drown.
Demise's curse is separate from Hyrule, and thus followed them to new Hyrule.
>>145840284
>That tiny Tetra
Cute
post more webms please
>"From the beginning of the game, Link does a certain something that causes a certain change to take place. We wanted to make sure that change, that trigger was a huge part of the story telling."
Aonuma brought this up when talking about the towers that appear once Link activates them with the slate in the Nintendo minute video posted today.
This got me thinking if the story will be different if you choose not to activate them. Because seeing as how after you do activate them, we see calamity ganon surround the castle. What if you ignore the towers completely? How big of a change in the story will it be?
>>145842432
you probably couldn't progress if you didn't. Those are definitely tutorial towers which means you won
t be able to skip them.
So how many dungeons are there this time around? I also see that there are mini dungeons or something? Trials?
Have we seen any dungeon play/dungeon bosses?
>>145843556
They haven't given out details about the dungeons yet, so we don't know anything. They did however confirm that there will be around 100 or so shrines, which are much smaller than the dungeons.
Anyone have the webm of the giant floating object in the sky that Link sees through his binoculars? Please and thanks.
How are you hanging on /lozg/?
>>145843867
I think Shrines should count as dungeons. I mean, you get in and solve a puzzle. Sure, they are small, but they still are dungeons.

Reminder that the game is already finished. Nintendo is just holding it back for the NX release.
>“It’s complicated because as we’re developing this — obviously development of NX started a while ago — and unfortunately, I’m sorry, but the development of this game took a lot longer than expected.

far cry 2 already did this
jk not going there again. fucking idiot.
>>145828574
It'd be cool if there was a few that you could craft
>>145847952
Joking or not, it's not about "stealing" ideas, because if you'll look around enough, another game probably did the same thing before far cry 2.
In this industry, all ideas have already been explored in a way or another. It's like saying all platforming games are copies of Pitfall, which is true but at the same time stupid.
So yeah, the real question is not "in what game this already happened" but "why this doesn't happen in more games?". And the answer is, people care more about muh graphics and muh mature storytelling, so devs don't invest money on technology and gameplay research.
Since this is more a Loz general than a BotW general, isn't it strange they never mentioned the Hyrule Warriors DLCs once at E3?
We still don't know what there will be in the next packs for Legends.
pic related upsets me
>>145849090
How so?
>>145849148
Because of its shape
I wanted the final boss to be >>145849159,
and not pic related.
The entire dynamic of the fight changes depending on whether he's bipedal or quadripedal.
I recently played both TP and OoT for the first time, and I found OoT Ganon to be a much more enjoyable fight than TP.
>>145849260
I think you should hold on judjement for that. I mean, we only saw Calamity Ganon. The fact they call him "calamity" might also mean he has multiple forms and shapes.
So far, he is just a dark shadow surrounding a castle. When we will fight him, he might have a different aspect.
What items are you fags hoping to see come back? I want the boomerang and either a grappling hook or hookshot to come back.
I also want to make one of those fire rods unbreakable. That'd be cool

>What items are you fags hoping to see come back?
Hookshot. A hookshot that can be used everywhere and on everything.
>>145849782
We did it, bros. We did it.
>>145849682
>boomerang
>hookshot
Practically guaranteed.
I wanna see the Roc's Feather or Roc's Cape make a reappearance. With the new jumping mechanics (and clothing, what with the Roc's Cape), they could be useful.
>>145849742
This is what I'm hoping for as well. Seeing as link can climb walls and shit. So a hookshot that can be used everywhere would be a welcome addition
>>145849894
Imagine a mountain too high to be climbed with your stamina.
With a hookshot you can target a very high point of the mountain and then star climbing from half way through the top.
>>145849893
I don't think they're guaranteed. They said they want to break conventions here and those two items are the most conventional. Plus they could argue the bow is more prominent. And climbing and using the magnet rune would fill the gaps left from the hookshot
>>145849980
And that would be awesome. If we get a hookshot it'll probably be a late game item.
I want an unbreakable shield too. Between that, a hookshot and the glider and we could have some top notch mobility and a LOT of fun to be had
I hate getting meta, I'm not the autist that was sperging before, but we should really think about what to do for the next threads.
I think the best thing to do is to make a Zelda general. Sure, we will discuss mostly BotW but opening the general to more Zelda discussions, like Hyrule Warriors or Triforce Heroes for instance, would help keeping the thread active.
Hell we could even create a Triforce Heroes group of play.
Still, we are only at 400 posts, so this might be premature.
>>145713334
Wow, finally, A Zelda general.
It's about fucking time.
>>145850640
Tell your friends.
Reminder that no matter what scheme, in the end, the Sheikah are behind this.
The cycle is real and in effect since SS. It applies to all timelines and all games.
Since OoT the Sheikah are working actively to break the cycle. However, they only make progress in the twilight realm timeline. In the other timelines, the good guys either fuck up too much or are too successful. That's why we don't see Sheikah stuff in those timelines.
Zelda's soul does not want to break the cycle because muh duty.
Ganondorf's soul wants to break the cycle since Wind Waker without being aware of it.
Link's soul does not have a say in anything. He's destined to get played, literally.
The Lanayru civilization developed time travel machines. Lanayru can be written La'Nayru, like Eldin can be written El'Din. TP's Hyrule Castle was located in Lanayru. This is no coincidence.
The game series works towards convergence of the timelines since TP. At some point we will probably discover that Lanayru time fuckery has limits.
We will see elements from all three timelines in one game. The convergence of all three lines will happen, but it might not happen in this game. This game might have converged two lines already.
So what's /lozg/'s theory on the spirit orbs? They don't seem like typical relic items that need to be gathered, but more like aspects that Link absorbs into himself, as if they become a part of him.
Given the shady intro of him waking up from that stasis pod, should we take it as another sign that this Link isn't the real Link but some fake clone or robot, or that he died 100 years ago and was resurrected?
Because the spirit orbs seem to lend credence to this. Maybe they're fractions of the true Hero's Spirit, and in order to become a proper hero like the other real Links throughout the series, he has to undergo the shrine trials to earn enough of this stuff to proper defeat Ganon?
>>145851320
>Since OoT the Sheikah are working actively to break the cycle
what makes you say that?
>>145851747
In short, my desire to make OoT work in a larger scale than the game itself. The way Nintendo established the timeline with OoT splitting up the flow is weird.
To make things work out, someone must be behind splitting the timelines. Considering the heavy involvement of the Sheikah in the beginning of BotW and the fact that they have access to this high level of technology, which is similar to the ancient Lanayru, I find it plausible to say that the necessary driving force behind that intentional split are the Sheikah.
>>145713334
So, it's like Dark Souls or something?
>>145851747
>>145853838
Oh, and if you were talking about motives, I don't have any specific for you. I don't need one either because the cycle is both a blessing and a curse for virtually everyone involved.
They can pick whatever they want to justify any motion in favor or against it.
>>145832828
I think it looks fine.
>>145853975
The Legend of Souls: Breath of Ghibli. Yep.
>>145851396
From a gameplay standpoint, I suspect those orbs are needed to enter some specific areas or dungeons.
>You need more spirit orbs to enter this dungeon
Something along those lines.
>>145825915
For me it's absolutely the latter. Seeing Ganondorf as a literal reincarnation of Demise in the same manner that Zelda and (to an extent?) Link reincarnate manages to cheapen both Demise and Ganondorf. Demise gets cheapened because he goes from the ultimate evil to a magically-gifted human, and Ganondorf gets cheapened because being a reincarnation takes away some agency from his character.
It's much more poignant to view Demise's curse as basically force on the level of influencing reality itself. Link, Zelda and Hyrule will forever be doomed to ALWAYS be hounded by a neverending chain of supervillains who want to destroy them. None of them are actually connected to Demise, but the curse creates conditions that allow them to exist.
Ganon just happens to be the most persistent and successful one, which is related to the fact that he is the only villain to acquire the Triforce, which ultimately bound him to both Link and Zelda and thus bound him to the overall cycle of their reincarnation.
I'm so pumped to watch people kill Ganon with a bunch of sticks while naked
>>145854710
I really feel people are taking Aonuma's words too literally.
Yes, you can reach Ganon right after you begin the game. But that doesn't mean you can actually beat him. Or get the real ending for all that matters.
I mean, in the streams they showed a fight against the Boulder boss. He basically killed Link in one or two shots.
How can people think to beat Ganon in that state?
>>145854832
This, I'm willing to bet there's an aura around the castle that outright kills you without the proper plot items collected.
>>145854832
>How can people think to beat Ganon in that state?
speedrunners will find a way. I garuntee you it will take two weeks at the most for someone to find a strat.
>>145854832
Okay I was exaggerating; probably there's a fair chance it's literally impossible to kill Ganon without certain accomplishments, but I'm pumped to watch the internet discover these minimum accomplishments, route them down to a minimum time, then kill Ganon while wearing no clothes.
>>145854695
Not that anon, just my two cents. Being a reincarnation doesn't mean the guy can't live its own life. For instance, TP Link might be a reincarnation of the hero but he doesn't get necessary in love with the reincarnation of Zelda, like in SS.
The hero and the villain can be reincarnations but still live their own lifes with their different behaviours and tastes. Ganondorf being a Demise reincarnation doesn't mean he can't have its own strong motivations which go further than the simple "you are cursed to be the evil guy". It depends by the circumstances.
Besides, I think all the "reincarnation" thing is highly debatable in general. Whoever can be the hero as long as he have courage, WW Link basically proved that. Whoever can be the villain as long as he have power as well.
>>145854832
>>145855098
I feel like we've talked past each other a little. My emphasis here is on naked Link. That's the main concept I'm getting at here. Dead Ganon. Maybe some blood or whatever or who gives a shit. Naked Link. Maybe a sword I guess. MGSIII jokes optional. Naked Link not optional.
>>145855296
Oh, I got it now. Well, hopefully the Hero tunic won't be mandatory for the final battle.
>>145713334
>release date is 2017
Wow, you guys are way early. General will die, but come back.
What do you guys do in this general anyway?
>>145855483
This is basically a containment thread because of all the threads on /v/. There's no doubt it will die.
There was some talk of turning it into a regular LoZ general, though.
>>145855483
The general will be about Zelda in general anyway by the next thread.
Which will also cover games like Hyrule Warriors that is getting a senson pass.
What we need now is a bro that dumps lewd pictures of Zelda girls. That will attract more people.

It's going to be released on both consoles.
>>145856431
I think I got a lot of enjoyement from my Wii U. I was a sad kid with a PS2 back in the days and I missed two Zelda games, WW and TP. The Wii U gave me both ported in HD. Plus amazing stuff like Tropical Dong and Bayonetta 2.
I can't really hate the little thing. Shame it was unsuccessful but I can't hate it.
>>145856537
He knows that. He can't pick which to buy yet because we know fuck all about NX. Personally, I might sell my Wii U if NX looks good and is backwards compatible.

I'm 25 and it's the same thing. Well, at least I have my younger brother that shares my same tastes. But I know nobody that cares about nintendo or Zelda. Maybe Pokemon.
It doesn't help the fact I'm european. People here care only about the Playstation and sport games.

I think that anon is concerned as to whether the English version will have a Japanese option.
I am thinking the inhabitants of the villages that haven't been shown yet aren't Link's species.
It seems like Link's people lost against the machines 100 years ago.
So I wonder what species it could be? Maybe a whole mix of races like Mass Effect/ Star Fox/ Final Fantasy 9?
Does anyone have that map grid using the great plateau as a size comparison for the rest of the map?

>/Lozg/ - tits general
Ok, boys, we are a Zelda general. It's time to settle this thing once for all.
Whenever someone asks which is the worst Zelda game ever, the first thing that happens is someone writing "B-but CD-i games don't count!". Well, fuck that noise.
Here and now, we must decide if CD-i count or not. As a matter of fact, those games are Zelda games and they are also very similar to LoZ 2. Nintendo might ignore them in the timeline but they are still fucking Zelda games.
So yes, once for all, CD-i games count and, yes, they are the worst Zelda games in existance.
Case closed.
>>145858545
>>145858685
I bet she stuffs
>>145859436
That convo is only interesting when you don't count CD-i though, and I'm giving it to Zelda 2.
>>145859978
>That convo is only interesting
It's not a matter of being interesting or not. It's a matter of choosing the objectively worst Zelda games. Which are the CD-i ones.
Opinions on this semen demon?

>>145860193

They were the first ones asking for a female Link though.
>>145860193
Wait, I thought they loved her from what I collected on /v/'s posts
>>145860364
That was probably before she was released and everyone saw she is basically Jar Jar Binks
>>145860364
Not really, no.

>let's debate
>nevermind, my opinion is the correct one
>case closed
Bullshit aside, I do not count them in. They stretch the field so much it's not worth looking at other games. There's not much information to gain. Excluding blatant outliers is a commonly applied technique in research. Like you have proven yourself, including them cuts the discussion short. If you don't actually want to discuss it, fine. If people want to gain knowledge through discussion, they will exclude that shit.
>>145860517
Internet says she's coming in "Summer" with other characters from the 3DS version, like Tetra and Skull Kid
>>145860621
What knowledge would you find in the endless shitflinging between WW and TP fanboys and between 3D Zelda and 2D Zelda fanboys?
There is no discussion to be had if you exclude the actually worst games. You'll just finish in the usual clichès of shitposting and "my favourite game is better than your favourite game".
But everyone can agree on the fact CD-i games are the absolute worst ones, without shitposting whatsoever.
>>145860758
Hopefully. I don't really want to buy Legends.
>>145860797
>You'll just finish in the usual clichès of shitposting and "my favourite game is better than your favourite game".
You and I are having very different experiences. Maybe if you actually read the threads before you start shitposting in them, you'd see people are actually discussing the games.
>>145861108
Yeah, you definitely missed the hundreds of threads with people shitposting how a Zelda game is the absolute worse just because they don't like it.
Don't make me laugh, don't even pretend they never happened.
>>145860323
In order to hate her.
>>145861217
>shitposting
Oh I get. You're using the word wrong. They may be driven by anger, but it's not shitposting. and that goes into the whole "worst zelda" discussion. Someone says why they hate it, usually a stupid reason, and then people reply telling them why they are stupid.
Worst right here
>>145861217
>>145860797
Okay, it looks like you do not want to discuss like this. It's totally okay! I suggest you to take the easy way out and stop posting. You're right after all. Those CD-i ones are the shittiest Zelda games.
Now, that being clear, let us discuss the shittiest Zelda games, excluding CD-i ones. Please note that you don't have to participate in that discussion if you don't want to.

>>145862296
stop samefagging to prolong the conversation. No one is denying they're shit. But them being shit is not the reason people think they aren't canon.
>>145834343

Wew. Who's the shitposter now? You are.
What does /lozg/ think of the Oracles games?
>>145862803
I think they are on sale and I should buy them because I didn't play them yet.
How come TP Link and Zelda are the most commonly portrayed incarnations in official art withing and without the franchise?
>>145863075
I think it might have to do with the fact Brawl was very popular and the TP designs are still in Smash 4.
>>145862803
shit i beat them without even paying attention to what was happening on screen
>>145862803
They'rethe only LOZ games I haven't played
>>145862803
Haven't played it, but will probably pick it up since we're turning into a Zelda General.
Since OoT the Triforce commonly splits up before one of the main three can take hold of it. How would you explain the story behind the events of ALttP to justify the Triforce not splitting up at the end of the game?
>>145863075
I think it's because they're most realistic and "combat-ready" approach. They're designed to look badass. And that makes it look on official art and spinoff games. TP Zelda's look gives me the biggest boners too, but that's just me.
>>145848604
you're right.
nah but I was joking in reference to a thread on /v/ where this one guy just didn't fucking understand that the point of the thread was to discuss the AI lighting up the club and not about fire propagation. AI is the impressive aspect of the webm not the fire propagation. The anon was just so damn stuck up his fucking ass. pic related
>>145846870
This is probably a good thing desu senpai. The more time they have to work on it past the point when they're "done", the more polished it'll be.
>>145850351
it's a mess to bring in the "non-canon" games into a general started with BotW as a motive. I'd happily discuss those two games, but for HW I find it a tad bit annoying to be mixed in a general LoZ thread. I'm open to it though if people think it will work
What if you're not the real Link because the real one has been trapped and can't die / can't be reborn?
Once you beat Ganon and free him, he greets you withvoice acting.
>>145863662
I think it's the only way to help all BotW discussion surviving.
We can be a Zelda general and then still discuss BotW while others discuss waifus, timelines and such.
>>145864343
I guess the better thing we can do is starting from the begigging and fund /lozg/, which is just a thiny velied BotW general. Allowing more games, even the non canon ones, could help bumping the thread.
I don't know, it really depends by the next OP.
>>145849438
Already confirmed that he has multiple forms. I'm betting he will be like the Nightmare in LA and we will have to fight many different styles of Ganon's.
>>145863810
Yeah, on /v/ there are hundreds of posts like that.
Gee, the first LoZ had a sword as weapon, I guess no other game after LoZ is allowed to use a sword in different ways then.
Fucking assholes.
>>145854552
They said that the Spirit Orbs will be needed to upgrade things. Probably your spells you get for the Slate. So longer time on Stasis, longer range on Magnisis, larger blast radius of bombs.
>>145864347
What if the light calling you from the castle is yourself from the future?
>>145864613
>>145864806
Man, so many details shattered around. Someone should really gather all these infos in a single place, no wonders then people end to say dumb things.
What will the fast travel be like? Or will Link have to trek across every region as a feature?
>>145865438
You can warp to any of the 100+ shrines throughout the game. This was in the E3 demo.
>>145865438
Fast Travel works like this.
You go to a shrine and complete the trial there. This gives you whatever the reward is and activates the Shrine as a fast travel spot.
>>145865438
>all those towers
Guess what
>>145865536
I will not be using that option.
>>145865603
Well, it's optional. So nobody forces you or others to use it.
Like the invincible leaf in Super Mario 3D World. It's there but it's also optional.
>>145865558
Hopefully the trials are more captivating than the magnet one.
>>145855892
Something like Zelda's singing in SS would be nice tho.
>>145865947
Got to remember that the ones where you get the power are basically a glorified tutorial.
They made the trials to replace the hours long prologue from previous games explaining every little mechanic to you.
So they wanted to get the point across about what you could do with the power, but didn't want to make it too hard either.
Later trials are apparently harder and will require much more thought.
Which Link is the strongest? I'm guessing Wind Waker link.
But where's all the fapbait? Who's all the porn going to be about?
>Link
no
>>145866218
If I remember correctly, they said some harder trials will need you to use multiple powers to complete it.
>>145866218
It's technically just stretching out the tutorial as you will be required to go to the shrines for the gadgets to be able to explore or fight later in the game.
>>145866339
Can't wait for the Old Man porn.
>>145866320
ALttP Link
He has the most bullshit OP equipment and outright destroyed the lore-wise strongest iteration of Ganon. Compared to 3D Zelda iteration, it doesn't look that impressive, but if you try to get all iterations on the same page, he leaves the rest far behind.
Wind Waker Link is a lot stronger than he looks though, I give you that.
>>145764451
>sony and nintendo join forces next gen
>we've come full circle
Make it happen.
>>145866339
>Link
yes
>>145866469
Not really, you don't have to even do the trial at all if you don't want. You can go in, get the power and walk right back out. I would rather have something I can do at my own pace, then a fucking huge chunk of my time wasted before I can get to 'the real game'.
Also, i'm sure the amount of powers for the Slate are rather small in number. It starts with bombs and then you get Magnesis, Stasis and the Freeze on the Plateau. They already said that not all of the shrines will give you a power. I think there will only be a few more powers after that.
So maybe 6 powers as you don't want to over whelm people. and trials that last ultimately maybe 2-5 minutes? Yeah, I'll take that over drudging through an hour to two hour tutorial.
Given that they already said that you can beat the final boss right at the start of the game. There also has to be ways around missing certain powers.
>>145867043
Hold on, I think they showed the exact number of spots for power ups during E3.

Demos don't mean shit and are subject to change.
>>145867220
It's either a Guardian, or a Gohma.
Speaking of Guardians, did anyone else notice that they didn't seem to be protecting the Temple of Time, but rather seizing it? Perhaps it was taken over by the enemy? Or maybe the Guardians and the Shiekah aren't as benevolent as we believed.
>>145867220
Is that image slightly photoshopped? Or is it a legit screenshot?
>>145867390
>Demos don't mean shit and are subject to change
Following that reasoning, nothing we saw so far means shit.
>>145867437
shooped. higher contrast etc.
>>145867043
This is a series where people go out of there way to open every chest and collect every heart piece. It's good that they isolated the "collect new item" part of dungeons but for the average player it will be tedious to complete every shrine as though it was a dungeon.
>>145860464
Can't quite make it out...
>>145867654
lol check >>145867220
>>145867575
Exactly. The plateau could be totally different when it comes time for release. They have 9 months from now to release. Anything could change, we don't know how much they purposely left out for the E3 presentation.
Look at the TP trailer where they showed a forest and the Gohma fight, nope, completely cut or changed.
>>145867747
So? It's tedious to complete every dungeon of Skyrim, but people do it, even those that consider themselves to just be a casual player. This game will be no different.
Zelda has a general now? Noice.
>>145868083
Apparently.
>>145865947
If you saw the two trials they demo'd that are outside the plateau, they're still not incredibly difficult but even just watching people run through them it definitely had the traditional LoZ sense of puzzle solving and accomplishment. I imagine later trials will require a lot of planning and problem solving, though not on the scale of dungeon exploration.
>>145867390
>Or maybe the Guardians and the Shiekah aren't as benevolent as we believed.
This is a common theory, and it think it has some ground to stand on. I thought it was interesting how the old man talks about the Sheikah, too.
>Long ago, an advanced civilization known as the Sheikah inhabited these lands.
>It was the power and wisdom of the Sheikah that saved this land time and time again.
>But their civilization disappeared long ago... or so it is said.
Now, I haven't played all the games, but weren't they practically extinct in all the games? They never had a civilization to speak of, and they never were big players in game events either. Is the old man talking about events long before they were nearly wiped out or is their significance being exaggerated?

Knowing Zelda it's gonna be the same old "equip this go here, hit this switch, backtrack"
Anyone else secretly hoping for the possibility that NPCs can perma-die in this game, depending on what you do or choose to do?
Like you can either kill them personally or you can take a dialogue path to refuse a sidequest/choose not to protect a village for the time being, and this results in said village and villagers getting burned to the ground via moblins or something of that sort?
The only thing that would fix such a mistake is the ability to time-travel back before the event ever happens. Which leads me to my next question:
Everyone agrees or at least senses the possibility of a time-traveling gimmick for this, right? It's so blatantly apparent that we're going to travel back and forth between the 100-year gap. All of those inactive guardians scattered everywhere, the Temple of Time currently being left in ruins, the effects this could have on villagers and NPCs, Aonuma saying that settings do play a major part in this game, regarding the gameplay... It's so obvious.
>Them meat and shrooms mixes
I get hungry whenever I see them.
>>145868959
It's also a major theory that the Twili were actually the Shiekah. Anouma also mentioned a connection to TP that would have us wanting to replay the game. I'm guessing it has to do with that.
>>145869001
Seems like it could be a lot less of "equip this" since they give you all the basic runes from the outset. Rather than forcing you to backtrack (though it will still probably happen in the dungeons) the trials seem more about finding ways forward by solving challenges than finding your way around a dungeon.
They also stated explicitly that not every trial will be puzzle based. There will be combat ones as well.
>>145869182
I would keep my expectations in check.
About NPCs, we saw the old man reacting when Link tried to hit him or when Link picks up a bomb. But killing NPCs? I doubt it.
As for time travel, I expect you can summon things from different times and timelines, like Wolf Link, but not time travelling.
>>145869187
This is probably one of the best edits for this I have seen. I also can't wait to try out all sorts of cooking combinations. I want to run around, find a bunch of ingredients and make the best dishes I can. MORE HEARTS, MORE STAMINA, GIVE ME EVERYTHING!
I will collect ingredients from the far reaches of Hyrule and create the ultimate dish.
No really, I bet there will be a dish that revives you when you die.
>>145869491
NPCs reacting to character stances, such as sheathed or unsheathed weapon, and actions nearby is hardly anything new in current gen video games.
>>145868959
>Now, I haven't played all the games, but weren't they practically extinct in all the games? They never had a civilization to speak of, and they never were big players in game events either.
Surprise surprise - they never went extinct. That's just what they wanted everyone to believe.
I'm sure it's already been posted, but there's growing evidence that the Sheikah are something extremely powerful, almost Illuminati-tier in the Zeldaverse. Especially with the confirmation that they're an extremely technologically-advanced society, with most of the technology or magitech throughout the series barring a strong resemblance to their architecture and design.
>>145869353
>Combat trials
Sweet, can't wait to see what those will be like. I hope it won't be just some basic stuff and we will have to fight some big monsters too.
>>145870024
I'm guessing it'll be something along the lines of mini versions of the Savage Labyrinth from WW or the Cave of Ordeals from TP.
>>145870197
Yeah, I bet it will be too. I just hope we will get stuff like the Steppe Talus that we can fight in there. Maybe even an actual boss and not just mini boss. Would be funny to explore everything and find a combat shrine that throws a boss from a dungeon you haven't even been to yet.
Best Zelda game?
>>145870405
Way too early to tell.
Honestly, I think people are over-hyping themselves again. Did no one learn anything from TP's reveal?
>>145869657
I never argued it was something new or mindblowing. I was just pointing out we know NPCs react when you hit them, that's it.
>>145870597
I think he was asking which one is the best Zelda game.
>>145869617
I wonder if fairies and bottles will be in the game. No rupees is also an interesting thing.
>>145870405
Majora's Mask.
>>145870405
Link's Awakening.
>>145870597
I don't really remember much over hype for that. It pretty much delivered everything we saw in the trailers with only a few exceptions, like the forest.
People just blew up at 8.8, despite that being a really good score.
>>145871295
Rupees are in the game, you just don't get them from grass or treasure anymore. They want you to get them mostly from selling the stuff you find.
Bottles are out as an item, instead you get one when you make a certain dish. Spicy Elixer was the first potion we saw, gives a long duration cold resist.
>>145862705
Having more grades within liveable conditions would be useful for gameplay I think.
>>145871531
>I don't really remember much over hype for that.
How young were you at the time? Because it was by far one of the most - if not THE most - hyped game of the PS2/GC generation.
Stamina upgrades confirmed.
>>145871617
I remember there being hype, but over hype generally means people were expecting things that had no chance of happening. I remember people being excited for Bomb Arrows being back and the wolf transformation and how big Hyrule field looked.
Course it turned out that Hyrule field was really empty and boring.
>>145871589
Perhaps, but Fahrenheit is a completely human-made concept from the 18th century, unlike Celsius, based on the physical properties of water, there is no reason for Hylian/Sheikah engineers to know what Fahrenheit is. Though I'm not saying Celsius would be much better.
A hot/cold gauge with ~7 degrees from "skin-peeling" to "frost-bite" would be both more immediately useful and also make more sense in-universe.
>>145871617
>>145871531
it received a standing ovation and a loooong clapping process. It was by far, the best E3 experience ever to this date. Like imagine the disappointment of WW. Then they hit you with the most amazing orchestrated video game trailer. shit was bomb
>>145872332
>imagine the disappointment of WW
Bunch of crybabies.
Just got back from the BotW demo, good time.
>>145872332
Agreed. It's considered to be one of the greatest moments for a reason. Shit was unreal when it was revealed. The hype was absolutely insane from all angles. People really thought we were getting the next OoT.
>>145872959
I am jelly as fuck, fampai.
>>145872959
What was your favorite part from the demo? Anything that stood out to you in particular? Anything you disliked?
>>145872991
>>145872332
And then the game came out. And it wasn't good as people thought.
>>145873143
Exactly.
And people are seemingly doing the same with this.
Except the hype isn't nearly as strong as was for TP, even now with all of the tropes that BoTW intends to change. That's how huge it was.
>>145872959
Got any webm recording of your gameplay?
>>145870597
I didn't browse /v/ when TP was revealed but I greatly enjoyed the game and I'd rate it 3rd best behind WW/BotW, assuming BotW lives up to even half the hype. I don't understand the hate it gets. The Wii controls weren't mind blowingly fun but they felt smooth especially compared to some other Wii games and added immersion to the combat.
>>145871186
My only point was that since there's plenty of precedent for games doing the same thing without taking it any further there's no reason to expect more of this game when we haven't seen any indication of further consequences of NPC interaction.
>>145873127
The combat feels really nice, and throwing your weapon to crit enemies is really great.
Only thing I guess I didn't like was there was no weapon durability bar. It just sort of tells you "Your weapon is low" and you usually only have 1-3 more hits after that. It was pretty solid tho.
>>145873298
I mean, TP had a trailer. BotW showed a very intensive gameplay session. I think BotW's hype is way more justified.
>>145766110
>2. Rock salt from the "ancient sea."
That one doesn't necessarily mean anything. It could just be a sea from millions of years ago that naturally dried up
>>145873423
There was no one able to record me sadly.
And I don't have my own equipment, all I can do is tell.
>>145873746
Nothing means nothing, following your reaaon.
But having a salt rock means there was a ocean there. And so far, the only big ocean deep enough to hide Hyrule we know about is WW's one.
>>145873746
>It could just be a sea from millions of years ago that naturally dried up
That's not realistically a possibility unless the item description is specifically meant to be a red herring.
If the sea is so ancient we haven't even seen it before then people would have been living in Hyrule after it had dried up, meaning people and animals would have already found and used much of it, it would be a very rare find if even still there at all.
If it's from some other sea on the edge of or far away from Hyrule then what's it doing on a plateau in the middle of the kingdom?
It certainly could be from another sea if it's intentionally meant to mislead us and is later explained away but otherwise there's no doubt it's from the Great Sea.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PFdfmR29Ew
Confirmed for being a new installment, not a remake of Zelda 1.
>>145775289
That was Mt. Hylia, which is part of the plateau.
>>145872718
yeah but that's western gamers for you i guess.
Only over time did WW end up being appreciated.
>>145874758
I figured that was pretty obvious. There is no way they would have the Temple of Time and the Koroks if this was a remake of Zelda 1. But it is nice to have confirmation.
>>145874758
Duh. Someone unironically thought it was a remake?
Anyone else really want to play the new Zelda game?
>>145875018
Everyone was pissed. Even Japan was pissed.
You have to understand that WW came in right after the N64 Zeldas. The change was jarring, to say the least.
>>145875145
Me. I wish Nintendo would say "fuck the NX" and release it these holydays on Wii U.
>>145875145
Your baiting aside, everyone in this thread probably does.
>>145875145
Nah it looks like shit. Zelda games are bad and Nintendrones should feel bad for buying terrible games on gimmicky, underpowered consoles.
>>145875179
In hindsight it is quite funny that the theme of Wind Waker is letting go of the past and looking towards the future. Do you think they came up with that before they revealed the game or as a reaction to the backlash?
@145875501
Someone needs a hug. But no (you) today.
>>145875145
I'm only here to complain.
>145875624
I'm counting it anyway.I haven't been this hyped for a game in years.
>>145874348
>meaning people and animals would have already found and used much of it, it would be a very rare find if even still there at all
Not that anon, but take a look at real world rock formations. Where I live, we have limestone that's been laying around for millions of years from ancient oceans and lakes. Despite constant usage there's still plenty left, enough that I can find some in my own backyard.
If the rock salt IS referring to an ancient sea, it's more than plausible that it could stick around until this game. However, that also means we should have seen evidence of it in previous Zelda games, which we never had. So it being from the Great Sea is still more likely.
>>145849260
>implying it won't be Stone Golem Ganondorf in his WW clothes with Calamity Ganon eeking out of the cracks and attacks Link from long range
>>145875989
But then what's the deal with the master sword?
>>145875618
I don't think it was a reaction to the butthurt. They wanted honestly to move on from OoT. The fans not though.
>>145851396
It's because you don't play as Link, you play as a manifestation of Ganon's fears, you're collecting fragments of his power to return them to yourself.
The old man is the manifestation of Ganon's wisdom
The beast is the manifestation of Ganon's hatred
The voice of Zelda you hear is the manifestation of Ganon's conscience.
The real Link and Zelda are in New Hyrule in Spirit Tracks, this game is all the psychological collapse of Ganon after being turned to stone.
>>145876191
fuck.
>>145876103
There are two Master Swords.
One is the one used by WW Link. It wasn't the real MS, just a perfect clone of the original made by the Sheikah. This explains why Ganondorf petrified but didn't die.
The other is the original one, well hidden somewhere in Hyrule, rusted by the fact it was underwater for so long.
>>145876191
In some ways I'm glad Nintendo isn't that ambitious with the stories they tell.
>>145872225
>unlike Celsius, based on the physical properties of water
The scale is still a human concept, but I get your point. The temperature will also likely be Celsius in PAL regions, or maybe we'll even have an option of which to use. I agree though, a simpler scale would actually be easier to use for the player. You can always think of the temperature system as being translated from whatever the in-universe equivalent is, like how all the character dialogue is written in an earth language and not some made up Hylian one.
>>145875952
Sea salt is a little different from rocks through isn't it? I'm no geologist but I imagine there's a lot more rock than salt laying around anywhere, and that animals don't eat rocksmostly
You should probably just make the next thread a catch all /tloz/ general
>>145876191
First fan-ficy story I've ever heard posited for this game, that I can say sounds cool.
But only if it all ends in Ganon becoming a good guy, and that the King of Hyrule added that into his wish at the end.
You know just like Goku did forKid Buuat the end of Dragon Ball Z.
>>145876570
We are thinking about it. /lozg/ sounds cool enough.
>>145850090
I think they are going to do the same thing they did with SS, both the Master sword and the Hylian shield will be unbreakable. Also, during the livesteam, someone mentioned that in the real game you'll be able to exchange the orbs you get in the Shrines for something secret. It will most likely be the Hylian shield.
>>145876805
Is that the royal we or is there some hidden committee?
>>145876657
>and that the King of Hyrule added that into his wish at the end.
Bro in the Japanese version he literally wished for himself, Ganondorf, and Hyrule to completely cease to exist.
>>145876879
Do you have his exact line in Japanese?
>>145876870
It's more a "we" as in "some of us randomly talked about it but that's it".

Spoiler Alert:You play as the Link from the original 2 games, after Zelda 2 he gets killed, and his blood used to bring forth Ganon again, then is taken to the shrine of resurrection for 100 years
>>145876191
Nah. The plot will be a lot more fucked up this time due to Monolith's heavy involvement, but I doubt it'll be thatcrazy.
The following is more likely:
>Link died 100 years ago and was revived, but lost his hero's spirit in the process, with it shattering into many pieces. Now he has to undergo the shrine trials to literally piece himself (his spirit/soul) back together.
>this Link is actually another Link from a different era, or maybe even a different timeline - and was teleported here because the designated hero for it is MIA. Very likely that this takes place before the flood or the first in the downfall timeline because of this.
>This Link is either a clone, a sentient android or some other artificial construct created by the Sheikah as a desperate last-ditch effort to recreate a hero since the current one is dead or MIA; that or its possible that this fake Link is puppet of someone else for more malevolent reasons
>>145876463
Not sure what you guys are getting at, but sea salt specifically is commercially sold salt extracted by evaporating sea water. Rock salt, or halite generally forms similarly, it's just when sold it's not called sea salt because they didn't oversee the evaporation process. There are large halite deposits in places like the Appalachians. So it very well could be a reference to the Great Sea. But it could easily be a red herring in the sense that Hyrule was covered by a sea before people settled it, if we're applying real world principles to the games.
>>145877427
Thanks for the link. The goddesses must've fucked up his wish a bit if this is after WW.
>>145877594
>>145877721
Both games I sadly haven't played.
If the 3 timelines are parallel to eachother, then wouldn't there be some Link incarnation overlaps
Like, wouldn't these Links be parallel versions of each other? Because then that would also make BOTW Link the Adult Timeline version of Zelda 1 Link if true
>>145877883
Image dumps are a vital part of generals, like it or not. It doesn't have to be waifus, it can be art or fan art of any kind.
>>145878947
Hypothetically but there could've been a hundred different Links inbetween those guys
>>145878947
Makes me wonder if the timeline is trying to "correct" itself by leading all Hyrules into a Zelda 1 state to converge
I mean, weren't River Zoras already making big appearances in Spirit Tracks and Four Swords Adventures?
Can you give commands to Wolf Link or does he just follow you and aggros on enemies?
>>145879538
You can tell him to say. Pretty bare bones. I think he also randomly digs up stuff.
>>145879538
He aggroes based off of distance, iirc. You can shoot stuff from a far distance away and he won't do anything. It's not until you get close that he reacts.
What if Calamity Ganon isn't actually related to Ganondorf? The presence of various references to Hylia as a goddess, which largely disappears by later eras as the Golden Goddesses got more emphasis, makes me feel like this should take place closer to Skyward Sword's time. But Ganon being mentioned makes it seem like it needs to be after OoT. But does anyone think it could be possible that there's a form of Ganon that exists apart from Ganondorf going ham?
Post things you hope are in the game, regardless of likelyhood:
>More companions than just Wolf Link and a horse. Nintendo probably wouldn't program Wolf Link AI and animations and then make them exclusive to Amiboo users, so maybe you can tame a regular wolf at some point. For other companions, maybe an animated statue/armor, like Zelda in Spirit Tracks, or one of those Sheikah mechs to suport you with covering fire from its energy blasters
>A close quarters combat system. I want to run around punching, kicking and wrestling Moblins
>A full set of special moves for each weapon type
>More weapon types, like dual swords, halberds, flails and whips
>A hookshot with as many uses as Just Cause's grappling hook
>>145879669
>>145879819
Fairly disappointing. I wanted to stay hidden and just tell him to go attack a group of enemies
If punished Link and the Lothric Hyrule theories are indeed happening, then we better have the chance to run into other Links from the previous games or timelines, and they somehow got stranded into this Bizarro Hyrule for whatever reason. Probably due to Calamity Ganon fucking things up, since he now has an appropriate enough title for causing such a crazy event.
>>145880184
Optional companions (like a Zora, a Goron, etc) that follow you around and help both with combat and puzzles.
Each companion would have different skills, so one is better at combat, the other gives you hints with the puzzles (maybe the dumb one would give the wrong hints).
Big age gaps between the three main characters. I want to see old man Link protecting loli Zelda, or kid Link saving MILF Zelda, or Ganon being an evil child prodigy.
I want Toon Link (or Young Link) to interact with Midna (both forms).
Dungeons you can explore in different ways depending on what items you have on you. So let's say you have the bow but not the bombs, you can access a part of the dungeon and beat a boss. Then you come back with the bombs and beat the other part of the dungeon. Or maybe you simply have to look for alternate ways to solve the same puzzles with the items you have.
A dungeon where you fall in and find yourself locked inside the boss room. So you first have to beat the boss, then find your way out of the dungeon.
>>145881046
>kid Link saving MILF Zelda
This was the plot of TP
>>145879909
>But does anyone think it could be possible that there's a form of Ganon that exists apart from Ganondorf going ham?
Yes, and it was pretty much confirmed ALBW. Ganon is pretty much Demise's curse that's somehow managed to gain sentience over the years.

>>145878681
Well, the Triforce shouldn't actually take things literally. It's supposed to detect the wish at heart and fulfill it, without monkeypawing it. However, it seems to go with an least effort approach. So sinking the remainings of Hyrule, including Ganondorf and the King, was the least effort effect to fulfill the King's desire.
In SS, Link wished for Demise's death. Demonic beings like Demise probably have resistance to certain deadly effects and would probably require more elaborate effects to die for real. While simply dispersing Demise into atoms, heart failure, random combustion or many other spontaneous lethal effect might have been possible too, the Triforce, or rather, the Goddesses decided that it involved less effort by simply dropping that section for a bloody death from above. It also results in an epic cutscene, so it's win-win.

What implications for the story can we get from being able to go straight to killing Ganon?
Idea: what if Calamity Ganon is basically all of Ganondorf's evil, split from him and forming its own entity, and Ganondorf is now a lesser evil and enlists your help to slay it. Like in Hellraiser III.

This is Nintendo though.
>>145885437
We get the fact that 'story' is largely the history of what's happened before and how it has caused the events currently transpiring, along with various side stories, and that you can largely ignore this investigation and go straight to swording the evil without understanding the overall plot of the game or investigating any side quests.
>>145887031
...so....mindfuck plots...and major twist?
>>145887302
Nope, simple rescue the princess plots.
>>145887031
Yes, but Minolith Soft are the ones saving this project from Aonuma and Miyamoto.
And it's not like the Zelda franchise hasnt experienced its handful or share of mindfuck plots. MM, WW and LA were pretty mucking crazy for their time.
yu can't even go straight to ganon, like it's literally impossible. Theres a deep fog that kills you unless you complete the glider quest. Idk why that girl said you could when the same girl later said you have to complete the glider thing to get down there

Miyamoto isn't involved, and Xenoblade guys are only helping with making the open world, and they started helping late into the game's development.

ALTTP and TP weren't crazy at all in the plot department, though.

If they're going all out with the gameplay by trying to break stale conventions andechanics, the I don't see why they wouldn't do the same with the plot, lore or world-building; Aonuma did imply that BoTW would take a more Dark Souls or MM approach in this regard.

Yeah, in that you're probably going to uncover the lore, or whatever happened before the game rather than there being some story that you're forced to ride along with.
>>145888075
>looks and sounds nothing like the Hero of Time
>has amnesia, so no implications or memory of his past adventures either
>fans are so desperate for that third HoT game that they start calling this Link the HoT anyway
I want this meme to end.
The hero of time is my favorite Link as well, but what's the point if BoTW Link is nothing like him?
>>145888547
this desu famalan
I'd rather have this be the Link that was born supposed to save Hyrule from the flood but failed.
>>145888160
Flute Kid was eerie, but not enough to influence the entire game of ALTTP.
Meanwhile the Hero's Shade shit was fairly obvious from the get-go, and also not very disturbing/mind-fuckish/creepy to the overall plot at all. Hell, the Oocca are a better fit in this regard.
>>145862803
Din is top tier waifu
>>145888004
More than likely there's a way to get down without it but it's very difficult to do so and it's out of the way so you couldn't find it accidentally or by exploring.
>>145888547
When are the Kojimadrones gonna stop treating this game like the second coming of MGS is my question. We're not gonna get Kojima-tier ruses here.
>>145889038
I don't know, Aonuma's being more cryptic about the plot than ever before. I don't think it 'lol be Kojima-tier though and through, but it'll be a huge mindmuck in regards to typical Zelda and Nintendo standards nonetheless.
>>145889306
*mindfuck
Fuck phone autocorrects
>>145889306
The biggest twist I'd reasonably expect is that Calamity Ganon isn't actually the final boss.
>>145762673
Then just call it Zelda general
Nintendo would NEVER do a twist where you're not actually Link
They had a heart attack and needed to force Triforce Heroes into the timeline because they wanted to make sure that players didn't think the Link they were playing as was just some random dude and not actually a Link
>>145889038
>tfw I used to be a huge kojimadrone
TPP killed him to me
>>145889449
I think time travel is a potential given. Traveling back between 100 years aka OoT.
>>145889510
>Nintendo would NEVER do a twist where you're not actually Link
lol
what is wind waker
>>145889605
Oh? That's interesting... Hyrule before and after Ganon, like in OoT, but in a more meaningful way.
>>145889746
Wind Waker Link still has the spirit of the hero and is Link you dumb shit, he's just not blood related to the Hero of Time.
>>145889746
Why do people keep spreading this meme? It's still an incarnation of Link, what the king said was the he isn't the HERO OF TIME, not that he doesn't have the hero's soul. He isn't the Hero of Time, he is the Hero of Winds.
>>145890080
Yes, thanks to SS and Hyrule Historia retconning a lot of things.
That wasn't the case before the retcon.
https://www.reddit.com/r/nintendo/comments/4of36n/the_grass_in_the_new_zelda_reveals_what_nintendos/
Reminder that Nintendo has been working on this game since as long as the Wii U was in development.
>>145890348
Nope, it was always the case. People assume that he wasn't the hero reborn because the king states he isn't related to the Hero of Time.
More links to trawl through for information. I'm not really in the mood so I'll just drop them here.

I don't see how ss or hyrule historia retcons anything, in fact, they kinda support your theory.
ss states that only the spirit of the hero can wield the master sword, and surely enough, the hero of winds can't at first, he first needs to prove himself to be worthy to become the hero, kind of mantling his spirit.
meanwhile, the chosen hero from twilight princess doesn't have to. or any other hero, for that matter.
>>145890919Did you fap to the first one
Be honest
>>145890919repost that webm pls

About Miyamoto? No.

He could wield the sword tho, it was just weakened because Ganon killed the sages.

She's PERFECT!

The game hasn't changed much from that trailer to now, which is a good thing, is there any downgrade? yeah there is a bit, but not as much as people say, it's more of updating the character models in the game.
I guess I'm the only one that likes the trailer theme in this game better than any other Zelda main theme...
>>145893632
It reminds me of Korra too much.
We will need a new thread soon.
Whoever makes the new OP, you can use what the current OP wrote. But for the sake of if, maybe we should call it "Legend of Zelda general", even if we will still talk mostly about BotW.
>>145893632
imo, the only portion of the trailer music that sounds fitting for the Zelda series is 2:16 and everything else from there on out. That's Zelda; that's memorable, emotional music that feels fitting for a Zelda adventure.
http://youtu.be/UL-1tph8g3g
Everything prior to that though.... Not so much. The Chinese violin sounds offbeat and doesn't flow with the rest of the composition.
Meanwhile the music before that is completely off, once again sounds like Skyward Sword's blunder composer work where the tunes feel more fitting for Mario Galaxy than they do for Zelda.
I don't understand why they won't take a similar orchestral approach to that of the Zelda orchestra concerts instead.
Because the choice and composition of the songs they play for that concert is at least fitting for Zelda's epic feeling and tone.
The first minute or so of that trailer though.... Yeah that shit isn't epic at all, sorry.
>>145889605
They won't just rehash OoT gameplay-mechanic. Even with MM the time travel dealt with a different kind of mechanic.
Nintendo always innovate. They won't go "hey, remember OoT where you could travel 7 years? now its 100!"
>>145894709
On it I guess.
>>145895110
In the future, you usually wanna wait until page 10 before making new threads. Stuff gets deleted easily on /vg/
>>145894742
>Unironically saying epic
>>145894742
I'm actually glad this game's mood and ost are more mellow and melancholic than "epic", but that's just me.
>>145892387
I hope that anon burns forever in the lake of fire for creating this.
>>145895732
Why? Looks pretty good
>>145895371
Nah, I couldn't find another word to describe it. "Adventurous?" Legendary? Amusing that you immediately assume I'm jumping back the old 2006 meme-definition of "epic" to describe what I'm getting at here.
>>145895603
Melancholy is good, plenty of Zelda games also had numerous melancholic themes... but there's something "off" with the majority of the trailer's theme. I think it also has to do with the use of instruments. As a few others have already said, the erhu feels offputting for Zelda' especially a general Zelda theme.
I don't know, I'm just getting Skyward Sword vibes from all of the music that I've heard so far and that game has one of the worst and most unfitting OSTs in the entire series.
>>145894742
it's not supposed to be 'epic', it's supposed to illustrate the tranquil desolation of the world, whch has been largely reclaimed by nature and civilization lies in ruins (albeit really comfy, appealing ruins).
The music that picks up around a minute in sounds kind of like something you'd find in a ghibli film imo.
>>145889527
You should be ashamed. He made that game to disappoint.
>>145844347
I haven't seen the airship that clearly holy shit!
>MFW you get on it and discover all the secrets it has
>MFW you get to fly it all over the map (which will probably never happeen)
It's so fucking beautiful!
>>145897017
>H-he made it bad on purpose
even if it was the case, he still betrayed me
>>145897167
I really hope there's stuff in the air like the City in the Sky, that place was rad as hell.
>>145896972
This.
>>145896972
I get the vibe like I used to get from the NES Zelda games, like shit's kinda fucked up and recovering from it, there's still lush forests and all that pretty stuff but it seems like the land is coming back from some massive catastrophe.
