Posted June 5, 2009 Actually, I take back what I said Blue, she is the sword, or spirit of it or whatever. Her cape makes up the crossbar bit of the Master Sword and then there's the gem in the middle. Her neck looks fairly grip like and her head looks like the butt of the MS too. Well there goes the mystery.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 Seems like a good twist about the Master Sword. How the hell could someone think it was Zelda? Idiot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 ..maybe she is more than the Master Sword? Perhaps she can become a boomerang, bow and arrow, hammer.. all sorts of things Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 Stylistically that picture is a bit too much like Twilight Princess for my liking. It also seems like the side-kick for the game has already been confirmed then. I just hope this one doesn't slight Princess Zelda as much as Midna did. And Miyamoto says Link is meant to look older? He looks pretty much the same as he did in Twilight Princess.

Posted June 5, 2009 I think the Master Sword should remain the Master Sword, it's been a constant to be found by the Hero throughout. Not quite sure what they're planning, but why would it suddenly be something different, isn't it best to apply that to a different sword? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not quite sure what they're planning, but why would it suddenly be something different, isn't it best to apply that to a different sword? I think the Master Sword has become far too iconic for that. Obviously they wanted us to realise that she is the sword. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 So you're saying she's always been the sword? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 So you're saying she's always been the sword? Not necessarily. I'm not arguing for it from an in-game perspective, but from a real world perspective. That being said, there are many ways they could implement this. The sword has always been magical - perhaps it has always had some of personality of its own which has been brought forth due to some event? Or maybe this girl has been fused with the sword due to a curse or an accident? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 Actually, I take back what I said Blue, she is the sword, or spirit of it or whatever. I think that was pretty obvious right away from that pic, that's why I posted it. I like the idea that maybe she has always been the mastersword in all of the games. Maybe now with a higher purpose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) It doesn't really matter if it was or not, you're being a bit pedantic. We're referring to the art style. Twilight Princess may have been cel-shaded, but it looked nothing like Wind Waker. That was my point actually. I've looked a bit into this now, apparently, not everything was cell shaded or something like that. --------------- TP had a rather Nice art style. It was other things that made it feel different from other Zelda games. The enemies were one thing that could have been a lot better, but the art style was good. This thread should really be merged with the other one in Wii Discussion. Speculation: I'm thinking like most other people that she is the sword. I think she always has been. Perhaps this game will have something to do with the Master Sword becoming the four sword. Edited June 5, 2009 by Emasher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 5, 2009 I just noticed that part [top and left side] of the figure is highlighted. The highlighted area forms a vague sword shape and fit's perfectly with where Links sword would be should it be on his back! Spirit of the Master Sword all the way!

Posted June 5, 2009 Doesn't light make vampires burst into flames? Yea, except twilight ones, so really I was making fun of the stupidity of Twilight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 6, 2009 That's the edge of the cave he's in. And the light is obviously from outside, its lit up the whole of the left side of the picture, not just the spirit thing. People read too much in to the smallest things!! Though I agree that this thing is the master sword Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 6, 2009 People read too much in to the smallest things!! Its Zelda, and all we have is a pice of concept art. We need something to speculate on, and this is it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
