>We talked a little bit about the idea of density, how dense do we make this big world,” he explained, “as we were developing it, we realized that filling [Hyrule] with things to do and explore is going to be a lot of work. It's going to take a lot of people and a lot of time. But when we actually started doing it and experienced things like moving around on the horse or climbing up to a high place and paragliding down, we realized that our desire to see what's ahead was more than just wanting to see what's in the world. So in that sense, we realized that it's kind of OK if there are pockets of emptiness.

Worrying? Interesting? source it's an interview with Aonuma.

>“Rupees do exist,” Aonuma said, “but the reason for their existence is a little different this time around. As you saw it's not about going to cut down grass and collect rupees or find them in treasure chests but it's about collecting things and going to sell them and then using the rupees you get to buy new things. The rupees are there but they serve a different purpose.” (Editor's note: A pair of IGN staff members found a single rupee while looting the rusty remains of a Guardian, but we didn’t find it until after this interview.)
Is this just about ingame economy or will they have an explanation that's part of the story?
>>
>>146550772

With TFH and BotW, they need to do a reprint of Hyrule Historia.

Depends on how Nintendo tells the legend. Maybe we get an introduction like in WW, then it's clear right at the start. If not, we will probably discover its place after release when the first few power gamers rush the game.

>Is this just about ingame economy or will they have an explanation that's part of the story?
I guess it's also part of the story. Hyrule's reign is shattered and there isn't a proper economy anymore. Rupees are pretty much like gold now, they can only used as barter.
I think what Aonuma wants to say is that before it was easy as fuck to find rupees, while now it will be much harder and we will have to use them propely.

Also, this is another confirmation there will be more NPCs.
>>
>>146550870
I completely agree, it creates contrast.

Shit like Skyrim/Witcher etc etc tend to suffer from "INTEREST POINT" bogus, it becomes a hassle to just explore every mark on the map and then you really start to ignore everything else that's in the world.
>>
>>146550870
It's realistic. It also depends on how you define "emptiness". The only "true" emptiness exists in outer space and the innermost layer of my soul, so calling a patch wilderness void of NPCs, but filled with natural occurrences "empty" is totally okay.

I agree with you. But it breaks my heart when people point out at the "emptiness" of the game as a negative.
I mean, WW's Great Sea and TP's Hyrule field are the very definition of emptiness (not outer space emptiness though). What we saw in BotW so far is far from being THAT empty.
>>
>>146551464
I liken it to the 'emptiness' in SoTC.

It really adds to the atmosphere and wonder.
>>
>>146551464
I'd even say that the sea in WW wasn't nearly empty enough. They did well trying though.
>>
>>146550447
I wish Nintendo would acknowledge all CD-i things. Not in an official way, something like when they poke fun of the Virtual Boy. Like how the virtual Boy is always in every Wario Ware game or that cameo in tomodachi life: "All hail the virtual boy".

So many people here loves them cross-timeline theories.
One thing that always came to my mind is the Wind Fish and the role wind has in Wind Waker.
I know, they are completely different timelines. Still, it's very strange how a giant fish is related to Wind in a timeline Where there isn't a hero of winds. Maybe the Wind Fish is related to WW?

Yeah, this makes zero sense but whatever.

>Aonuma: “I can't share too much about villages because the way they work is interconnected to the story and overall world. It would be spoilers,

I think because the world is wild and rampant with monsters, so every village has some sort of magic camouflage defense feature. Maybe you'll be able to play mayor too and decide to upgrade stuff about villages. Or lend your service for defense missions.

>Aonuma: Yes, so the upgrade path is very Zelda-like.
>IGN: Can we assume it takes place within towns and leave it at that?
>Aonuma: Not quite. [laughter]

Seems you can upgrade stuff outside of towns.

>"Yes, you're right that arrow is definitely an important part of the game,” Aonuma said, “and actually getting that arrow is very important to navigating the game.

There will be areas locked until you get the special arrow. Maybe you won't be able to pass magic camouflage of the villages without the arrow.

>On the systems side, you get a list of missions that’s easy to look into and check on.
Was worrying about that.
>>
>>146565486
Maybe it's less of a camouflage and more of a barrier? The special arrow seems to be Shiekah-make and seems to be competent at dismantling some of the other Shiekah tech.

>Upgrade path
Depends on what kind of upgrades they're talking about. If it's things like heart containers, that doesn't seem like the kind of thing to really take place in towns, but if they mean item upgrades, we never saw any form of "crafting" menu or anything. It could easily be that they removed it for the sake of the E3 demo, but it could also be purely restricted to towns.
I remember seeing Boko Clubs with "Durable" on them, maybe there are people in town you can pay to upgrade your equipment in a similar manner. Other than that an answer of "Not quite" doesn't really say anything other than upgrades not solely being linked to towns.

At first I thought it was very far fetched, but there's even the same coral reef/low deep sea around the island. And them adding Link's Awakening characters to Hyrule Warriors now can be a hint to this too.
But then, seeing hwo close it is to mainland, it would mean Link sucks as a sailor and got owned only a few days after leaving port.

Nah, I think it's just that I like comfortably strolling through a game instead of rushing to the end. Honestly I don't think I'll complete MM for a long, long, time, because I will probably spend an obsessive amount of time getting each character's quest complete.

I beat OoT long ago when it first game out, but I literally stopped playing for a whole year in the middle of the Water Temple.

I think the only period of time I laser-focused on a game and beat it rather quickly were TP and Resident Evil 4. Back in college.

This so much. I'm the same.

>>146595905
If I drop a game for too long, I know I'll never complete it. I have a very short term memory and I hate starting a game from half way through without remembering what I was doing. Starting from the beginning is annoying as well. So I never manage to play it again.

All I can really ask for is wigs that give Link long hair and a policy that "If another character is wearing it, so can Link."

>>
>>146596586
Not that anon but I also think the longest I stopped playing a game is one year. Happened multiple times too. I often stop playing a game for months if I get busy.That's because I tend to start a lot of games at the same time. Then finish them slowly.

If it's a long RPG I just look up the story again on the net, carefully to not be spoiled. If I really like the story and don't want to be spoiled at all costs, I'll just keep playing anyway and only check the net when I finish it, I'll remember the story if I really want to.

I hate it when people say that we have less time as we grow up so devs should make games shorter, that's stupid. I'd rather play 30m a RPG a day and finish it in one year rather than play mobage 30m a day.

I don't mind long RPGs, I don't have kids but I think even if I did I'd kept the way I'm doing things right now. There's no need to rush and buy&finish games ASAP. Around one fourth of games releasing these days get an enhanced port/ remake in only one year or two. So you're better off waiting.
>>

>I hate it when people say that we have less time as we grow up so devs should make games shorter, that's stupid
Really, is that a thing? That's a pretty bad excuse. I mean, there is nothing bad about short games (like Warioland 4) but using the "growing up" justification is silly.

I saw it a lot recently with people defending Star Ocean 5 being 20 hours long.
>>
>>146598520
yeah, but that's poor marketing defense
less game time means less cost and people will buy another game sooner. in fact, they "should" try to make games as short as possible to maximize income. that's also a reason the marketing guys love DLC.
>>
>>146595140
>Are you uncomfortable with ending games?

This is somewhat of a problem for me. I just drop some games right before the final boss.

I'll do all the other sidequests/collect equipment and whatever, so the only thing left is the final boss. It doesn't even matter how much I enjoyed the game or not, I lose any interest I had in the game.

I think it might be because sometimes I end up accidentally getting spoilers when looking something else up regarding it. Most recently, this happened with Dragon's Dogma.

>GK: We regularly talk about the possibility to include a female character in a Zelda game for several years. Considering her important role in the story and the name of the series, can we expect to see in the future a game with Zelda as the main protagonist? If Tingle managed to have two games in his glory on DS, surely it is possible to do something, right?

>Miyamoto: We clearly talked with the team to make a game centered about Sheik, so I cannot say it is impossible to see something of the sort in the future, but in the classic games in the series, Link is the hero and that will not change. For the rest, you have to be patient and see what happens!

They need another year and 6 months for the NX? They've pretty much abandoned the Wii U as well.

We have heard nothing from Nintendo on future Wii U titles other than Paper Mario Color Splash and that fucking Fire Emblem/SMT crossover thing.

I have a hard time believing they'd be insane enough to ride out with those fucking games
>>
>>146599169
Based on the context, that doesn't sound like a definite confirmation of Christmas 2017 as much as it sounds like a joke about how BotW being released would be an early Christmas.
That being said, I'm highly skeptical of the March release date. We already know that they're delaying the Wii U release to coincide with the NX release, but if the NX was coming out in March, I would have figured that E3 would be a pretty fantastic place to show it off, given that it's less than a year away.
>>
>>146599691
The NX won't launch in March. I have been saying this since months: they will delay NX's release, they did it with the N64 too. March was just a placeholder date to make shareholders happy.

Nintendo shoot themselves in the foot by dropping Wii U and 3DS' support too soon. The NX is still not ready.

I also doubt it will launch on March. It would be the first console they don't announce at E3.
And I'm sure Nintendo doesn't want to fuck up like they did with the WiiU (people didn't know what the fuck was that console when they introduced it). So they need time and exposition for their new console.

The TGS won't cut it, at least for the western market. So I'm betting for a Japan release around April and a western release some point after E3.

I want Fi to come back though, but not as a fucking tool for the game to annoy you but rather an actual companion/girl

Daily reminder FSA is LTTP's true prequel, not OOT

Why Adventures? I've actually been thinking about timeline reorganization lately, what is your reasoning for that?
>>
>>146638649
Well, the Historia says that the design similarities of Fi and WW's Fairy Queen are intentional, so maybe a link will be formed in that way somewhere down the line. No, that's not a Fi x Fairy Queen /ll/ joke.

IIRC

-Almost identical version of Hyrule
-Origin of blue always-Ganon and his trident
-Master Sword was going to be in the game but got cut
-Maidens were originally called sages, and they're obviously all human unlike OOT's sages
-Dark World
-Mentions the Knights of Hyrule

Where are the legs man?

Fi's legs are a miracle of the universe

Interesting. But what if they were flipped? For one, the origins of the Dark World are shown in ALttP, which beforehand was thought to still be the Sacred Realm.

Neat, the temperature gauge gets iced over, never noticed that

I remember there was an anon that was doing some math to see how big BotW world is.

If he's is still around, I have a challenge for him. Approximately, how big is the floating Island supposed to be? As big as the Plateau? Smaller? Bigger?

See >>146585210 for reference.

>>146642892
I doubt he'll be able to tell from that image. It's impossible to tell exactly how far away it is, for starters.

Even a vague esteem would be cool.
>>
>>146643562
I don't think you'll even get a vague estimate, dude. There's really nothing to go on.

>>146643826
It would have been easier if the guy looking at the island would have marked it on the map. Why people playing the demos never think about this kind of stuff?
>>
>>146644170
I guess few enough people even noticed it at all, so the chances of one that did marking it, and of those that (in theory) marked it one would upload it to the internet, must've been too small for us.

Pass. The woman of the household already owns a Wii U.

>>146557521
Should have a "wait for more info" option.

Also, bump.

Also, what if in an homage to Twilight Princess the NX version is flipped, making Link left-handed?

I think that would piss people off. I mean, BotW might have a Hero Mode that naturally flips the world.
