I like the character design a lot, but I'm also not into the art style, however I wish they'd pushed stylization more instead because the anime/semi-realistic look doesn't go well with cel-shading imo (and realistic graphics are boring to look at anyway).

Gerudo Desert what's known and what I hope for

~ Hot during the day. Cold at night
~ Introduces the concept of overheating but like Snowpeak and Mt Hylia it's only at a low level and true overheating will be Death Mountain
~ Sand storms are something to watch out for
~ New type of companion creature in the form of the Walrus
~ we've seen no fruit bearing trees so we might be eating Cacti or have to prep ahead of schedule for travelling through it
~ Gerudo do not appear openly hostile
~ fortress is gated and walled so walking in isn't happening and either it's impossible to climb over or there's penalties if you're caught
~ have to earn entry
~ Molduga is a/the overworld boss maybe what you have to beat to get access to fortress
~ Camel Great Beast is located there
~ get the Mirror Shield after beating their Dungeon or all their quests
~ cooling items, meals and elixirs introduced
~ get to dress like a version of Ganondorf by putting together Gerudo outfits
~ multiple named Gerudo with distinct designs
~ interesting sidequests
>>
>>168429220
It is the downfall timeline so maybe we will shoot beams from the sword
>>

You might not be able to dive from the beginning but gain an item to do so later.

you can't eat companion creatures. horses are confirmed to drop no food the same very likely applies to the Sand Walrus and dogs.

I just want Gerudos to become the good race again. Outside of one of sages on OoT is a Gerudo, and Ganondorf looking hot, they have done nothing good for the Hyrule's nation. The only game they have done something good was FSA.

I hope they do at least something worthwhile again on BotW.

I think upgrading items would be more useful. We've already seen with weapons on the Great Plateau that they have stats like enhanced damage, greater durability etc. Being able to put these stats on whatever weapon we choose would be great

Storing weapons would only be useful if you had a full inventory and seeing as weapons are breakable you'll soon create some space for them

>he doesn't plan on keeping the very first weapon he picks up and not letting it break so that at the end of the game, he can look back on it as a commemoration to the start of his journey

the first weapon is a stick, an axe, a torch or a rusty broadsword depending on what you go for. None of these things are durable enough to survive 2 - 3 encounters

>>168452752
I'm keeping that "fake master sword" at the start of the game. Specially if it's the only one of its kind (we haven't seen any other "rusty X" weapon so far)

They should change "sex" into "sexual content", since just being able to see a boob would get you that label. But I think the rest are pretty self-explanatory.

Can someone redpill me on which console I should play it on? Early WiiU footage looks super bland/washed out but that could just be early footage. Is there any recent WiiU footage to show how it will look? It seems like Nintendo is hiding it because it might end up looking the same if not better than the Switch.
>>
>>168458954
The Switch version is confirmed to run at a higher resolution, and will feature higher quality audio. They're using the Switch version in all the marketing because it looks better, why would they want to show off the poorer looking version?
>>
>>168458954
I don't think any of the recent footage we got are from Wii U. It's safe to say the game will look/run the exact same other than the 900p on Switch docked mode and better sound quality.

Personally, I'm getting the Wii U version because my slow ass didn't get to secure a Switch preorder. It'll probably be the first game I get on Switch, though.
>>
>>168459274

Usually they do comparison videos with two versions of products to show how superior one is to the other. They have only used old footage so far so it seems kind of strange.

No, as it doesn't have a hard mode in it. There's a world of difference between new content and an entire mode for content already in the game. Hard mode even, not just a meaningless gimmick.

>>168477708
See, the quality or extension of this hard mode is irrelevant, this is hard mode sold separately, not some mini-game or a cheat mode (still bad, mind you) or anything inconsequential to the main experience. It's despicable and concerning by default.

So is the Ethan must die mode in re7 also despicable? I haven't heard complaints about that mode being DLC.

>>
>>168478365
>So is the Ethan must die mode in re7 also despicable?
I'm playing through the game right now on normal or whatever highest difficulty is available from start. Currently in the second house I guess running away from gramps and the wife and something black.

What's that DLC difficulty?
>>
>>168478365
>So is the Ethan must die mode in re7 also despicable?
Is it hard mode? If so, yes. I don't care about RE7, so I can't comment on whether people are complaining or not. With that said, I honestly can't see the Outlast clone audience caring much about difficulty, with how scripted that game can be.

>And like i already said, we know nothing about what "new hard mode" entails. At least wait to complain about it until you know for sure it's shitty
Again, it doesn't matter what this hard mode is. It's still premium hard mode.

Don't worry, Wii U leak any day now, with enough datamining within the following 3 hours to reveal you most of the game.

>>168478594
It's called a difficulty mode, but from what i've heard it's basically some sort of minigame separate from the main story that has you going through tons of puzzles and challenges throughout the house. Enemies also do tons of damage too, i think.
>>
>>168478731
>Is it hard mode?
It's "a hard mode", but it isn't hard mode, per se. It's a bit tough to explain, but there a bunch of sites that explain it much better than i could.
>Doesn't matter what the mode is
I still think it does. If it's just some kind of mode that makes enemies do more damage or adds elements to the game to make it harder then i agree that its shitty, but if it's something new then i don't.

Because the one I saw was FAR superior to the current switch footage, with greater level of detail, better lighting, better shading, better textures and greater lod distance.

Everyone says the Wii U version looks like shit but to me the Switch version doesn't look much different. I probably don't have an eye for these things but when I bust out my magnifying glass I see the exact same problems on Switch of pop in, shitty textures and whatnot

If people want to play the game on Switch that's fine but anyone saying it's some kind of definitive edition is fooling themselves. It's a port not an HD remake or something
>>
>>168500832
I personally still think that current switch/WiiU version is a downgrade of what would be much higher quality graphics if it was WiiU exclusive.
I mean, look at XenobladeX and first WiiU trailers.

>>168501150
Dude, the Wii U version still has frame drops everywhere. This game is pushing the Wii U to its limits, there's no way it could've look better without running like shit.
Xenoblade X's world is static with no possibility of interaction, that consumes less resources. Also Xenoblade X was downgraded like hell before release.

Finally I got the chance of playing the 20 minutes long demo of the game. Wew. I didn't manage to do half of the shit I wanted to do. The game is massive, goddamn it.

About the Switch, meh. I mean, many see it as the second coming but to me it seems quite literally a Wii U 2 (not in a dispregiative way, mind you, I love my Wii U). But BotW didn't look that different from the E3 Wii U demo and Mario Kart 8 was identical to the Wii U version, except for the handful new characters.
Sure, maybe Switch's power is bigger but overall it didn't felt like a big difference. Honestly, games like Arms, Splatoon 2 and others I tried could run on Wii U without issues.
But, holy shit, the HD sensors of the joycons are hella impressive, I'll give you that. It's very funny though seeing people that used to shit on the Wii U being all hyped and stuff for the Switch.
>>
>>168506816
I feel like the Switch is the ideal version of the Wii U. The gamepad was a cool idea, especially with off-TV play, and the Switch makes that idea into something more practical.

If you're not having fun there's no point. Everyone recommended Xenoblade X but when I played it I was bored shitless. When I played OoT I was absolutely disgusted by the controls
>>
>>168507560
Bongo was frustrating if I remember right.
Try putting on hoverboots for him, and rely on Z-targeting for your bow. Even if the 'charge' he does is obnoxious and hard to do it's better with Z-targeting IMO.

Also that game wasn't really that good. I remember loving Majora's Mask but I went and replayed them and Majora's Mask was honestly much shorter and the bosses were not impressive. More story though.

given your complaints about OoT, the fact that you prefer AoL to OoT just makes you sound like a contrarian

that said, people like OoT because it captures all the defining elements of the franchise as established in LttP and successfully translates them to 3D. there is some nostalgia aspect, to be sure, but i have no issues replaying the N64 version (i haven't actually played the 3DS version)

i think the dungeon layout is interesting and varied, the complexity of puzzles scales well over the course of the game, the plot/lore is really fantastic, the music and characters are well executed and memorable, and the world offers great fodder for exploration and open discovery without being so overwhelming as to be offputting (which is a worry i have about BotW)

the only true issue i have with OoT is the significant frame rate drops on the N64 when exploring Hyrule Field at night (drops down to like, 22-24fps), but that's a pretty specific complaint that's not relevant for the majority of the game. not sure what's giving you issues with the arrow aiming, i always end up sitting at the entrance to the fire temple sniping keese with the bow for kicks every time i replay it. what you'll find is that trying to aim the bow incrementally is much more difficult than sweeping your bow across the target and letting off an arrow when it passes. the smoothness of the bow sweeping motion is much more controllable than the jerkiness of short aiming tweaks

>>168508461
I don't know man, I loved it. Maybe it's just not your style, or something happened that destroyed your experience. It's not my favorite and I don't have any nostalgia attached to it since I didn't get to play it as a kid, but I love it and I think it's a great game and I can see why it's considered the best, given its temporal context.

>>168507072
Combat seem to be spot on. I had few minutes to get used to the commands but it was all right. Bokos are damn smart, fuckers. Also, the jump button added something more to combat.
Weapon durability is very short. Weapons get destroyed after few hits. But the good thing is that virtually anything os a weapon and enemies often drop them too.
>>168506938
Yeah, it's not bad. It's just... Very similar to the Wii U.
>>
>>168507351
The N64 controller probably has the stiffest joystick ever made, so that might be why.
Bongo Bongo, just equip regular boots, Z-target and fire arrows in both hands, and quick spin attack the living shit out of him to finish in one cycle. If you can't do that, just Z-target the eye while using the lens of truth and shoot an arrow, then stab him to death.
>>
>>168509179

What do you think of Link's speed? Do you think a horse is essential or can you traverse the world just fine on foot with a bit of fast travel here and there
>>
>>168509264
The stick was bad, alright. But Nintendo were the first ones to have an analog stick. They also were the first ones with rumble. Can you remember the shitstorm when the ps3 released without rumble on their controllers? Many things Nintendo pioneered are taken for granted now.

If HD rumble turns out to be at least a tiny bit impressive, you can bet your xbox hueg golden asses that some other consoles will present such a feature in their next gen, too.
>>
>>168507351
Meanwhile, OoT was the first video game I ever played and I've never been able to adjust to non-inverted controls when aiming with a joystick.

Guys, question
I haven't been up to speed on the Switch/Zelda lately, are there motion controls of any sort or can I finally get back to playing Zelda with proper, basic controller input?
>>
>>168510067
as far as i've seen, the only confirmed motion controls are when you zoom in with the sheikah slate to look around. haven't seen motion controls for aiming or anything
>>
>>168510067
I think there's a gyro aiming option similar to WWHD and TPHD, but it can be disabled just like those two games.
>>
>>168510049
It's probably autism but I need my controls to be up is up, down is down etc...
>>
>>168510303
Nah that's pretty logical, anything other than that is autistic.
>>
>>168509996
>>168510049
Idk, I also did archery as a kid and the inverted controls cemented in my mind as making sense because of the way you'd move your torso to hit a target. I probably just do not have a very elastic brain.
>>
>>168509885
I personally found the stick nice, but that's probably because my only console is the N64 and I've been almost exclusively playing with that controller from when I was 2 until college. Consequently, almost every other controller I use breaks within a year at most. Damn, my N64 controller's pretty durable.
>>
>>168473478

>>168473478
Honestly, if it's something like Master Quest, I'm not gonna complain much.
>>
>>168509885
True but I'd really like to see some fucking thumbstick buttons on their Pro controllers. Especially if I can pair them to my computers for emulation.

Nintendo has the best D-pad and so far has held it under a patent while never creating a standard controller. Emulation with 360 is fucking awful, and I don't know why Nintendo isn't at least adding analog stick buttons on their controllers.

I'm more surprised that we still don't know all the bosses in the game.

Pretty much all other nintendo games have been leaked by now. The fact that it comes out in two weeks and still no spoilers blows my mind.
>>
>>168521651
Well, the really big leaks usually happened a week before release. Spoilers probably next weekend.
>>
>>168520550
Maybe it's the dust, but why is the slate completely undetailed on the top? Isn't that where the screen should be?
>>
Speaking of bosses, I think Skyward Sword despite all the hate had the best final boss build up in the series, starting with the horde, Ghirahim's true form and then Demise.

It flew nicely, and Twilight Princess' phases felt disconnected in comparison.
>>
>>168520973
They're too baggy at the bottom to be leggings.
>>
>>168522061
The horde was a dissapointment though. They should have made it so you had infinite stamina and enemies couldn't block your attacks.

Now that I think about it, why did they remove the ability to attack in motion in SS? It was one of the best things in TP. It seems you can't do it this time either, in BotW.
>>
What are the chances of the Twili being punished Sheikah that got banished because they rebelled against the royal family?
>>
>>168443093
Man, I can't believe I finally put this screen together with the latest trailer. So Link doesn't get bitch slapped, he's taking out guardians left and right, this is a war of attrition. Ganon has corrupted and sent these things after Link and Zelda and Link is fighting a literal army and still fucking their shit and it's only because they keep getting hits in every once in a while that Link eventually goes down.

This will go down in history as the most badass Link ever, Ganon couldn't even do it himself, he had to corrupt the Shiekha's massive technological advantage to kill ONE man.

>>
>>168522794
>why did they remove the ability to attack in motion in SS?

Because it looked rather silly and was hard to balance around. It's just not how actual fighting works and made it seem more like just random flailing. Better to bring combat back to like it was for OoT and just have enemies react better and more aggressive so it becomes about managing your engagements.

Throwing weapons on the go seems to be way better then running and slashing that TP did. Going to be so weird to have a bunch of literal throwaway weapons that I use for nothing else.

I wonder how long it's going to take to get use to how fast Lizalfos are in this game. They were always pretty fast, but they usually just sporadically jumped to try to get behind you to slash. This has them rushing you headon and it's going to freak me out.

>>168522879

Yes but he actually looks pretty damn old. If they do age slower then I'd expect Zelda to look late middle-aged after 100 years, not early 20s.

>Zelda doesn't have an old lady voice when she speaks to you with the Sheokah Slate.

Is Zelda being old a new meme or something?

She sealed herself for thousands of years in Skyward Sword and looked exactly the same.

The difference was she sealed herself in a time crystal for thousands of years, 100 years is a much shorter period of time where that wouldn't be necessary and we've also been given no indication she goes into stasis at all. In all likelihood I think it's more probable she's either dead or no longer mortal.

>>168525738
>Fans are used to seeing Link in his classic green tunic and matching Phrygian cap. However, since Nintendo first debuted Breath of the Wild, Link has been wearing a blue shirt. Aonuma says that you will be able to find green clothes in the game, but you might spend most of the game outside of Link's traditional outfit.
>might spend most of the game outside of Link's traditional outfit
So does this confirm A.) the clothes are in the game (which we already assumed) and B.) it's an optional item? Like it's not endgame armor, but you have to find all Koroks or get all 120 orbs

It seems you think I said that she'll keep pestering Link until you, the player, choose to check the map. That's not what I meant, my bad. You can check the map in that moment or just press A and continue playing, she'll stay quiet and you'll get the "new quest" prompt the same.

Probably a reward for the orbs, as they are spirit orbs after all. Probably revealed that they are fragmented pieces of your hero soul, and at various amounts (30,60,90, and 120) you will get "iconic" Zelda gear. Including the Hylian Shield and hero's tunic. Maybe the bow and POSSIBLY the way to get the Master sword.

Been reading a few BotW DLC reactions for fun. It's PAINFULLY obvious that this is some people's first real interaction with DLC (because they only play Nintendo like a good fanboy). Like thinking DLC available for preorder Day 1 is Day 1 DLC. I bet if you told them Majora's Mask was originally gonna be an expansion they'd call you an autistic fanboy liar.
I'll wait to see the size of the dungeons in BotW before I decide if that pricetag sounds right.

That's completely fair, even if in cases like Mario Kart 8's $12 pass that seems completely unnecessary.

I'll willingly defend the bonus chests, though. Nintendo seems to be setting a precedent of an instant reward for purchasing future content. HW had the Dark Link skin, MK8 had the 8 extra colors for Shy Guy and Yoshi, BotW makes a pattern. People are literally flipping their shit over a cosmetic and probably 2-3 uncommon for early game items (my guess is a Traveler's Broadsword and a bow or bomb arrows, maybe a lightning rod).

I am under the impression that we actually need to approach enemies likes dark souls enemies now. You can't just run up and mash the sword button until they die, now you need to watch them and leave time to dodge.

it's /v/, it exists to hate. Ironically half of the people trashing the combat are citing Ocarina of Time as an example of what they want, when just a few months ago they were calling that combat overrated garbage and demanding a more complex system.

Nothing is universally loved and anyone can make their opinion appear much larger than it really is by virtue of posting a lot so it's hard to say how any given group feels on a subject when it's so easily skewed. Anonymity is a double-edged sword and extremely susceptible to shitposting.

>Do I need an SD card for memory?
No.
>Am I buying into a meme or is it actually a good console?
Hardware-wise, it's a great console if you consider it as a handheld with HDMI out. It should get good Japanese dev support, no idea about Western devs.
>Can I use the Switch to play Smash 4 like a 3ds?
Not yet.
>>
>>168580934
>Do I need an SD card for memory?
Comes with 32GB internal space, and games are on carts now so if you don't buy digital it will be enough space for plenty of games. But I would recommend upgrading to something more substantial. It's mircoSD, not standard, so keep that in mind when shopping.
>Am I buying into a meme or is it actually a good console?
It's good. It's not super powerful, but it's an upgrade from the WiiU and portable, so it's well worth the investment.
>Can I use the Switch to play Smash 4 like a 3ds?
As of yet they haven't announced anything related to smash for the system, but I'm expecting them to reveal that around e3.

If you're on the fence, I would hold off and wait for a price drop or game bundle deal, or until e3 when more games are announced and something piques your interest.

somehow i don't think nintendo is going after the sex and violence crowd which is a shame because i was really looking forward to link in a bikini bathing in the blood of bokoblins and sensually kissing the great deku tree as the camera zoomed in on his ass. nintendo really dropped the ball on this one.

Both.

Zelda's ass will definitely be censored if there's any lingering shots of it

>>168582576

Realistically it should be on Switch but with 6 year dev cycles it might not be. I doubt they're planning on scrapping everything from this game so it ought to be faster but it'll still be so close to the end of this systems life that a dual release is almost guaranteed
>>
>>
>>168582576
The next Zelda game will be 2D and also be on Switch.

>>168582576
depends on many things

>more powerful docks
The dock does literally nothing. They'd need to release a more powerful Switch, which is quite possible. Likely, even.

>>168582656
So if next game will be dual release too you can basically skip Switch entirely.
>>
>>168583658

How can we travel with Zelda if all story is optional?

Ganon can't be any weaker than the Guardians so you'll probably need high quality weapons, special weapons (Sheikah arrows and Master Sword), stamina upgrades or good management of it, a full inventory of meals and elixirs or you need to have excellent reflexes

I wonder if it will just roll credits or if you get a cutscene. Story optional suggests the former but I can imagine the rage when players don't get their cutscene
>>
>>168586027
Well since there are confirmed alternate endings I imagine one ending would be to beat Ganon without meeting any plot-important characters or learning anything about Link's past.
That ending will probably be pretty dissatisfying since there probably isn't anyone around to thank/congratulate you except maybe Zelda via the Sheikah Slate.

I've never thought about this, has it been shown if the staple Zelda "autojump" is still here?

Obviously you can jump whenever you want now, which necessary for climbing, but what happens when you just run off an edge? Do you now fall down, or do you still jump off automatically?

So, when the first reviews?
I'm kinda curious.
Has the leak season already begun?
>>
So correct me if I'm wrong, but this is my understanding for the bloodlines:
For every Zelda Z(n), she is the descendant of Z(n-1) and L(n-1), and the corresponding L(n) is some nobody with no connection to the bloodline?

Or are they both descendants, but there are enough generations between that it isn't weird?

Or maybe a mix of both?

On the one hand, i like the theory that the skeleton warrior in TP is the MM link, but is he just a mentor to TP Link or an ancestor?

What are your thoughts on the bloodlines?

>>168603670

>>168605192
what
>>
>>168584551
I think the obvious answer is that it's relegated to the recovered memory cutscenes and separate from gameplay. I don't really want it to be the answer because I wanted to interact with the champion bros but that's what it's looking like.
>>
>>168605192
Not sure what you mean? What exatly are these (n) variable supposed to represent?

>i like the theory that the skeleton warrior in TP is the MM link, but is he just a mentor to TP Link or an ancestor?
>theory

Pretty sure that was proven in the Hyrule Historia.
>>
>>168605192
Zeldas are blood descendants of the original Zelda. Links are reincarnations of the original Link but occasionally blood-related. The only Zeldas and Links that probably got together are SS, WW, ST, and maybe AoL.

>>168605346
Maybe something like Marin from LsA
You get to date her for a while, being limited to certain areas and so
>>
>>168605192
all Zeldas are blood related, all Link are the reincarnations of the soul in a different body unrelated to the prior one
>>
>>168605192

Very few of the Link's are descendants of Link's but all the Zelda's are related. Among the descendants of Link's none are the result of a Zelda/Link union

Zelda is always a descendant of a previous Zelda, it's always the same bloodline. Link is always a random guy, doesn't need to be related by blood or anything.

What if
all Zelda cutscenes are memories so that they prevent the game being forcedly linear
and actual plot and events with Goron, Koroks, Zora and Gerudo tribes happen in no specifical order so you can tackle their quests whenever you want?

Mm, Windwaker has a weird conflict of freedom and linearity, you can't really do ANYTHING out of order.

For Example
-You need the bow from tower of the gods
-To get the ballad of gales from cyclos
-To get the fire/Ice arrows from the great fairy
-to get the iron boots/power bracelets
BUT
-the great fairy will refuse to give you the arrows until you save your sister from the forsaken fortress
-which is also where you get the hammer
-which is required to get EVERY triforce shard
-meaning you can't do any part of the triforce quest early until after you have saved your sister and learned about zelda

all this is great for the first playthrough, but it makes later playthroughs a bit dull at times, as you always know exactly what is going to happen next with no option to deviate from that path

I'd like to see a hack that gives you more freedom now that you bring all of this up. It'd be really cool to do any part of the game at your own discretion. I don't think it'd be too difficult to mess with either since really the only thing keeping you back is item availability.

Yeah, hating on SS is a meme

Guys, I may only have time to do one before launch, so which should I do: start Twilight Princess HD or finish Skyward Sword.

In SS, I am just before the Water Temple on the Wii U (but I've made it to the clawshots on my unavailable Wii).
>>
>>168623934
I mean I can understand why some people might not like the game mechanically, given the motion controls, or how going to the same 3 zones might be a tad offputting, or how the pacing is atrocious, but I still think SS is a fantastic game, no sarcasm.
>>
>>168622831
SS had a good story but it suffered from gameplay options, that's just my opinion though.

>>
>>168624572
- Miyamoto feels white paper testing/monitor testing is important to get feedback
- that said, Miyamoto says you just can't have someone play and ask them, "How was it?"
- it's important to have a concept of what you want to convey in a game
- the monitor testing shows whether this concept has been conveyed
- Miyamoto likes to watch people play without talking, or watch recorded footage of people playing later
- Aonuma felt for a long time that games should be a certain way and stuck to that
- before Breath of the Wild, Aonuma realized there was a gap between fan feedback and what his own strategy was
- one fan said he really, REALLY liked Zelda, but with Skyward Sword, he missed experiencing a huge world where he could just ride Epona
- somewhere inside Aonuma, he felt the same way
- this is something he really thought about when making Breath of the Wild
- Miyamoto says for Zelda II, the devs really wanted to focus on action
- it's very different from the traditional Zelda series, which is why they named it The Adventure of Link
- Miyamoto really loves Epona and all the animals in the Zelda world
- Breath of the Wild had a dedicated programmer to work on the wildlife
- There are many, many types of animals in the game
- when it comes to wildlife, you have to decide whether to just view/enjoy them, or hunt them
- Miyamoto thinks it's fun to look into the sky and see birds, then think about where they're going
- Aonuma really loves the sail cloth/hanglider in the game
- he is afraid of heights in real life and would never be able to do something like that
>>
>>168624572
Prewtty neat. How much influence do they have over BotW, though? I know that the guy that directed the capcom zeldas and SS is directing this time, and Miyamoto's been pretty hands off with zelda for a while now.
>>
>>168625279
>Miyamoto likes to watch people play without talking
Too bad everyone on YouTube doesn't just SHUT THE FUCK UP AND PLAY THE GODDAMN GAME
>>
>>168625279
>- one fan said he really, REALLY liked Zelda, but with Skyward Sword, he missed experiencing a huge world where he could just ride Epona
>- somewhere inside Aonuma, he felt the same way

Wow, I'm really glad he listened to that fan, because that was my major complaint about SS, the Sky didn't really have that same feel as riding a horse and shooting arrows and the overworld being a level select like FSA made the areas feel to disconnected from the world.

They were still really well designed, but I liked seeing how the world really connected together. Going from Gerudo Valley, falling into the river and going to Lake Hylia and then being able to go from there to Zora's domain is something I will never forget.

>>168625279
>Breath of the Wild had a dedicated programmer to work on the wildlife

And he did a fantastic job, holy hell I wish Skyrim even had a tenth of the wildlife interaction we have seen. Little frogs, the ducks and the deer. It all looks so good.

>>
>>168625884
I know everyone in Nintendo listens to miyamoto's every word and Aounuma's very much in crage of zelda, even if hes only a producer on paper, but BotW feels like such a shift from all the trends from the previous 3D Zeldas, I get the impression that they've taken a bit of a step back and given the people below them more free reign to try out new things.

Mario Oddessy give me the same impression too. Maybe I'm being too optimistic.
>>
>>168625846
There's a mod for Skyrim I got that added ducks and little ducklings. They had no animation and interacting with them automatically collected them as "duck meat" in your inventory.
>>
>>168625742
I agree. I miss when videos didn't have retards constantly talking/overacting through them.
>>
>>168626867
I mean, what did you expect from a mid?

>>168625383
Aonuma was present in all the 3D Zelda games, pretty sure he's either the producer or director of all of them

Nice Ass but seriously we've got 2 updates and the game is out. Are we ever going to see Gerudo Fortress/Town/Village screenshot and concept
>>
>>168627330
Traveling Merchants like this will be a god send when you find them I bet. They will probably have loads of weapons or materials for cooking that aren't normally available in the area. Like frozen boar meat in the desert. Also unloading your own pack of goods at them will be nice too.

God I can't wait for this game, the amount of stuff that I am going to do just dicking around is going to be amazing. Who cares about the dungeons I want to go on a rafting adventure down to the sea. I want to tame some horses. I want to make some place which I can call 'home' in the middle of a forest. If only there were some abandoned houses with places to store things so you could keep up a stock of weapons or other non perishables for when you want to go out and explore.

don't forget like the snow you'll travel slower in the desert sand and consume more stamina as well as the nights being freezing cold so you'll need to pass time by the fire, carry a torch or dress warmly.

On the positive side it'll be the best type of ground to shield surf on outside of snow.
>>
>>168629451
>you'll travel slower in the desert sand and consume more stamina as well as the nights being freezing cold so you'll need to pass time by the fire, carry a torch or dress warmly.
I haven't been so up to date with this Zelda, is this true?
Because it seems like a really neat experience if it is.
>>
>>168629127
Considering that you can freeze in snowy areas, this is probably the case. Good thing there should be items just outside the desert area that you should be able to cook into heat reducing food or potions.

I bet there will also be oasis areas.

>>168629451
Night is probably far more dangerous then the day as well. So you have a chance of freezing if you go during the night as well as things like Stalmoblins. I would also bet on Lizalfos that are much harder to see at night and if you are equipping yourself not to freeze, then you probably don't have protection from their fire breath.

It's going to be a very strange balancing act.
>>
I seem to be minority, but I honestly expect this game to be easy as fuck unless you get the season pass with the hard mode.
Casual audience hates hard games after all, and they are the biggest market.
>>
>>168630024
This game is way harder than most Zeldas we got proof of 6 hearts in one hit or 3 hearts in one hit.

As well with the phrase a new hard mode.

So it implies there is already a hard mode.
>>
>>168629675
Yes, it is completely true, you have a temperature meter, certain clothing gives you a better rating against certain temperatures, you can also get food or potions which protect from hot or cold. Fire and Ice damage is also mitigated by doing this, we have even seen footage of Link being outright immune to fire with his shield raised and pressing through the flames.

If you make a campfire, then you can sit down by it to pass time by increments or go to the next day, carrying a torch does produce a little heat for yourself, but not as much as a campfire does. If you are not at the proper temperature, then you will take damage based on how severe you are outside of the proper range. So just a little cold you will take a half heart of damage every few seconds, but REALLY cold will take a half heart ever other second. Jumping into freezing water is instant death as Link immediately goes into shock and drowns.

>>168630024
I think it will be hard at first and then become really easy as soon as you get use to the combat and the crafting system. Enemies dealing 6 hearts through armor is still going to be a thing and starting at 3 hearts means getting one shot by most things. Aounuma also said that he wanted to create an experience where you could have fun dying in various ways.
>>
>>168629735

Making it all that much more alluring

>>168629675

confirmed that snow drains stamina faster and slows you don't but I'm extrapolating it being the same on sand. In one of the very first trailers we see Link in the desert as night with the/a quilted shirt on so I believe the nights are cold but no confirmation

>>168630024

It'll be easy in the sense that you can always over prepare yourself or be too strong for an area. Also useful items are near at hand but they don't infinitely spawn nor does the whole game stop to tell you it might be good to grab said items with instructions on how to use them.

On top of that skilled/experienced players will dive head first into situations they're not prepared for

So /lozg/ what will you do if you finally gain entry into the Gerudo Village and you're brought before this guy
>>
>>168630219
Considering that hard mode for Zelda has always meant a value tweak, I certainly don't expect them to be selling it. Something else would have to be changed, even if there wasn't a hard mode at all. Like AI, or extra enemy placements. Basically something to justify spending development time on it.

>but no confirmation
I wonder why they don't straight up say those things, it is not as if people wouldn't get exited for them.
>>
>>168630024
The game is less forgiving than previous Zeldas in terms of the amount of damage you take from enemies, environmental hazards, and fall damage. We know this already from gameplay videos.

On the other hand, it seems like sneaking around and avoiding enemies is a much more viable strategy now, and a smart player probably won't eat shit even half as often as we've been shown for demonstration purposes (Link getting struck by lightning, jumping into freezing water, etc). We also don't know what the upper limit will be as far as difficult enemy encounters or difficult puzzles, or if the game will live up to Nintendo's claims that just /getting/ to certain areas will be challenging.

I bet that will depend on how much time you spend preparing for those areas, like how they said you can go in the final boss dungeon from the beginning but that it would be too hard to beat the guardian.

>>168630926

There's been a lot of discussion about food rotting of late. I think the players you speak of will face a different problem with their just in case provisions going off just as they actually need to use them and becoming dubious food
>>
>>168631342
Yeah, food rotting is going to be a real problem. Hopefully there will be an easy way to freeze it. Killing animals in the snowy areas apparently makes it pre frozen, but I bet anything raw can be frozen by 'cooking' it with the snow chu jelly.

Going to be funny having all these ingredients and then cooking right before entering certain areas. Rationing properly and not over cooking stuff is going to be strange in a Zelda game.
>>
>>168631110

I think it'll be more like all the Gerudo fawn over him but he's in love with Zelda but she rejects him diplomatically so he doesn't get the hint.

Dammit now I want art of Groose with a Gerudo complexion
>>
>>168631685

Apparently killing food in snowy regions freezes it probably dropping it in freezing water does the same although you need to watch out for it being swept away

Salted foods might last longer and who knows there might be some Geudo spices that preserve it even further

I certainly don't think they'll give Link wallet/bomb/quiver upgrades, that'd be too conventional for what this game's trying to do.
