Posted June 14, 2016 Or perhaps you can just use the Wolf Link amiibo in Breath of the Wild without any TP data saved on it? You can, but it will only have three hearts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 15, 2016 The UI and font usage is foul beyond reproach. The use of italics and the Zelda logo font is especially disgusting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2016 The UI will definitely be changed before release, it looks placeholder atm. That said, I've realised the Zelda font should only ever be used for the game's logo, it just looks horrible everywhere else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2016 The UI and font usage is foul beyond reproach. The use of italics and the Zelda logo font is especially disgusting! I definitely think that the main pop-up for first getting an item should be in the bottom left and not interrupt gameplay (as you can press + for more info).

Posted June 15, 2016 (edited) I have never actually played any Zelda game in my life but this game seems pretty cool. It looks like a mix between Jak and Daxter and Skyrim If I already had a Nintendo NX then I would definitely buy this but I think I'll just wait for the reviews of this game (and the NX) before I take the plunge. As others have already said, it does seem to have the potential to be just another open world game with a cartoony skin (and the graphics dont look overly amazing)... but I am pretty impressed by this game so far as it seems to have incorporated the fun that I associate with Nintendo... but do you know what would make it really Nintendo? Split screen. Please please please local multiplayer modes for all games!! EDIT: Oh god... what is the point of having multiple options when chatting to NPCs when it makes no difference what you say? :mad: Dont go all Fallout 4 on us Nintendo!!

Posted June 15, 2016 Zelda has been like that since A Link to the Past. I guess its not that sort of game... Fair enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2016 I have never actually played any Zelda game in my life... Sorry, what? How does one go through life with this happening? :p You should go back and play some, they're fantastic! Breath of the Wild looks like a return to the original Zelda whilst taking bits from other games and expanding upon itself to bring it more in-line with other open world games, whilst still retaining what makes it Zelda.

Posted June 15, 2016 I'll just wait for the reviews of this game (and the NX) before I take the plunge. I predict lots and lots of 10/10's and 9.8's. but do you know what would make it really Nintendo? Split screen. Please please please local multiplayer modes for all games!! Split screen, in a single player game? Why? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2016 Split screen, in a single player game? Why? Everything should be multiplayer! I hate not being able to play games with my partner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2016 Everything should be multiplayer! I hate not being able to play games with my partner That's not really solid enough reasoning for a mainline, absorbing single-player entry in the Zelda series to suddenly be forced to include multiplayer, if Nintendo were to add co-op functionality for another player to control Wolf Link while you are playing as Link within limited range, I could accept that but nothing which would compromise tjhat amazing feeling of single-player immersion. I appreciate your desire to play more games co-operatively with your partner as I'm sure loads of people want that, to have more games to play with their nearest and dearest but this isn't a title which should go all out to include such features if it's not supposed to be part of the game I feel. However, if you want to play a Zelda multiplayer game which you can both enjoy in two-player co-op then I would suggest buying a Gamecube - well worth buying if you don't own one already - along with a copy of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures plus a GBA with GC to GBA link cable; it might seem like a lot but it's more than worth it especially if you have any of those things already, failing that there are a few co-op games from Nintendo available on the Wii U already but I don't think you'll get anything like that beyond the partly plausible Wolf Link scenario I described above. : peace: Anyway as for my feelings on Zelda at the moment after all that we've seen? 2017 really seems a long way away at the moment but it will be more than worth the wait!

Posted June 15, 2016 (edited) I watched the trailer but don't really want to spoil anything beyond that. That said, does the footage shown give any hint at any civilization/life in the world we've seen? So far I've seen ruins and dungeons, cliffs and forests, life in the sense of animals... but no towns, huts or people. Edit: I just read about there being towns and them being interconnected to the world. But just wondered if there's a hint of anything so far, roads, NPCs, etc.. For me Zelda's biggest weakness has always been how uninhabited (and often uninhabitable) the overworld feels. Skyloft, Termina, Kakariko Village, OoT and TP's Hyrule Castle Town... they all hinted at something brilliant but never got there.

Posted June 15, 2016 via Polygon "Users may not actually get the full story depending on how they play this game and how they strategize and solve puzzles," producer Eiji Aonuma told Polygon. "Users are able to go to the very end goal without revealing why Link woke up the way he did and where he did. Whether you want to reveal the storyline and find out why Link woke up, or you want to just go straight to the goal, that's an option totally up to the user." When asked, Aonuma confirmed that a player could go directly to the final boss of the game from its opening moments if they wanted. However, he also stressed that he didn't view this as an ideal way to play. "Anybody who can go straight to the goal without doing anything else — there's two possibilities," Aonuma said. "Either they're a really good gamer, or they could be somebody that's a little bit crazy. But it's not impossible. I created the game like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 15, 2016 I can't believe I'll get to play this, Persona 5 and Mass Effect Andromeda next year. It's gonna be one hell of a year for gaming Anyone got a link to a video that doesn't give away too much? Don't want to see that opening sequence (that was already pretty much ruined by its thumbnail/description) for example, but maybe just a glimpse here and there at how it plays.

Posted June 15, 2016 So.. timeline question... is this image accurate? http://bszelda.zeldalegends.net/storypics/atl.jpg kinda interesting if so.. and definitely sounds as though this new game fits in the wind waker timeline... I'm not knowledgeable enough to go beyond that.. and don't even know if that image is accurate... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
