I WANT TO FUCK FI

Who else got a day off from work on the 3rd just so he can play all day?

>>169420504
Does it count if I'm skipping all my classes?

Who else /noswitchpreorder/ here?

I've never been to a midnight launch before and I honestly don't know how early I should go to whatever store I go to.

>>169420451
>>169420504

Master I have determined that there is an 88% probability postmen will deliver parcels later rather than earlier

Since I haven't pre-ordered a Switch and don't feel like waiting to play I guess I'm just going to get the digital Wii U version.

I hope it isn't too much worse than the Switch version. It's going to feel weird to get a game I'm really hyped for and being excited to finally play it but disappointed that I'm playing an inferior version.

what is my best bet for getting a switch and botw if i didn't preorder?

I got a very lucky late preorder from Best Buy but they won't allow me to do a store pickup.

>that dude from the last thread
There are legitimate criticisms/subjective arguments you could make about BotW but it sounds he wants a western style RPG where you make your own character, or at least determine the course of your own story and set your own goals. That's just not what Zelda has ever been and it's not what they were aiming for this time, either.

Don't forget about the Tetraforce:
▲ ▲
▲ ▲

Is possible to sleep for more than 24 hours? I can´t wait.

>>169422935
Personally I'm glad that BotW isn't pretending to be an RPG like Bethesda games do

It's very obvious that Bethesda just wants to make action adventure games but are obligated to have an RPG label and the games suffer for it

So fucking comfy and calm

I read that the Edge review leaked. Anyone have a link?

>>169420908
>Master I have determined that there is an 88% probability postmen will deliver parcels later rather than earlier
I'll just sleep all morning then and then play the game until 4am.

>>169423414
So how do we think we'll be getting to those islands? Seems like it would get tiring trying to use a raft and korok leaf.

Anyway, this game is definitely comfy. The village music comes to mind.

>>169423939
I couldn't seem to find the actual review, but the end score is apparently a 10.

It's happening, people!

>>169423980
>So how do we think we'll be getting to those islands?

4 upgrades/16 shrines for a doubled stamina wheel. Jump right off the cliff and sail as long as you can, fall in the water and drink a stamina potion, swim the rest.

well well so it is.

3 uses. For a supposedly broken ability they're being awfully generous with it

>>169425659
What is this ability? I don't see it in the screenshots, or maybe I'm blind

>>169426161
Source?

>>169426161
So what do we think all 4 will do?

My guesses:
Birb-creates wind currents in places you specify
Efalant-causes storm to lower temperature and put out fires
lizard-firestorm, decimate your foes
camel-cause a sandstorm that lowers enemy visibility

>>169426161

I haven't a clue. Desert and Camel doesn't bring anything to mind

>>169426961
I can see the lizard, but the other don't sound gamebreaking enough. Even the bird sounds more overpowered in the edge article stamina limits too much how much horizontal ground you can cover with the gliderI'm imagiining something more like giving your glider thrusterm so you are uberfast and can control your direction more easily

it fades in and out based on where you are and what you're doing.

Music plays for characters, ambience, villages, indoors, shrines, important locations etc etc

Canceled my Wii U Amazon order cause of the delivery thing, how bad do you think the eshop will be?

All I want is Malon and Redeads to be confirmed and I'll die in peace

>>169430018
It'd probably be faster waiting for the Amazon preorder.

>>169430018
Hopefully not too bad.

I didn't pre-order so I'm getting the Wii U digital version as well.

I'm just hoping the Wii U version holds up against the Switch version and isn't an ugly slideshow.

I am currently playing through Twilight Princess after just having finished Wind Waker

Why does this game feel so bland? Not that it's bad or anything but it just has an overwhelming sense of mediocrity for a zelda game.

And also I am not a furfag so Midna and the whole wolf mechanic does nothing for me

Too bad Edge is garbage anyway.

None of the games they've given a 10/10 have deserved it.

>>169432575
I like how they mentioned frame rate problems and still gave it 10/10

Do they not understand what perfect means? Do they grade on a curve that includes ET for Atari?

>>169432508
My main problem with TP is that Midna is the protagonist and Link and Zelda don't matter

>>169432508

>>169432643
To be fair 10/10 doesn't necessarily mean perfect, they might want to give it a 9.7 or whatever but are forced to round up.

The problem is that 10/10 IMPLIES perfection to the reader because the score can't go any higher.

The game will be good regardless but 10/10s are pretty meaningless to me at this point, especially if the review mentions fucking Ocarina.

>>169432412
Why do all women in this game seem so flirty and giggling? What the hell?

It's social commentary about Japan's herbivore men

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbivore_men

>>169432838

that's how girls act around attractive guys

not like I'd know first hand

>>169432508
TP is just a straight zelda, like OoT. It's pretty much OoT 2. By the books, does stuff fairly solidly, trying to really recreate the OoT formula.

I think it's probably the best 3D zelda, but it's not my favourite.

>>169431409
The boomerang looks so fun. I wonder if you can throw it while shield surfing.

>>169432838
>not remembering how much pussy link gets in games.

>>169432508
I wouldn't say TP is a bad game. It just kinda sits in the middle of my top Zelda games list. Not awful. Not amazing. Just meh.

>120 shrines
>4 spirit orbs for an upgrade
>4*17=68
>52 spirit orbs remaining

that's a lot of extra stamina

Do we even know if the max amount of hearts is still 20?

>>169433628
No, 30 hearts

I've definitely seen food that gives you at least a bonus of 8 or more hearts.
So, do we know if this can go past the limit?

>>169433791
>>169433874
Well in that case there are either only 3 stamina upgrades or it is impossible to max out both, probably the latter.

>>169433857
>>169433874

there's room for a full row of yellow hearts IMO

>No, 30 hearts
WHY THE FUCK IS NINTENDO FUCKING UP THE FORMULA HOLY SHIT

I hope this game fucking flops

>>169434047
Stamina upgrades add 1/5 of a new circle each, so there's probably 5 max. Either way you end up needing 8 spirit orbs more than we can get to max out both. Chances are you can either get some form of heart/stamina container in game, or there are 8 spirit orbs that can be found outside of shrines.

>>169434047

It's definitely the latter. Basically there needs to be another sources of orbs or Hylia needs to be feeling extra generous with the last upgrade

>>169434163

lose 6 hearts in one shot from the next tier up from the basic grunts still think 20 hearts is enough

Nintendo of Japan insider here. The next home console Zelda is already in the works and is utilizing the BotW engine and many of its assets... and will have have a very interesting gameplay mechanic driving the plot. I can't reveal much more, but I'll leave these clues because I'm just so excited about it: dimensional creature, states, Goldberg machine. Oh and the concept art is really beautiful, too.

>>169434930
I'm juat so fucking mad that nintendo ruined their best fucking series by trying to make an Elder Scrolls clone but forgot that what makes elder scrolls fucking good is the CYOA style of questing.

Instead we're left with this shallow world with 4 real bosses and a ton of useless shit.

"LOOK YOU CAN USE A PITCHFORK, THATS A GAME CHANGER RIGHT?"

NO you fucking morons at Nintendo. Wind Waker had it right. Just let us pick up weapons and use them, not have us carry around 10 fucking weapons that all break in 2 hits.

And the voice acting. Ho. Ree. Shit. Did they fuck that up,

This is also the first console SINCE THE VIRTUAL BOY not to have its own exclusive Zelda game, and rumor has it no 3D Mario or Metroid are gonna come to the Wii U now. Thanks for making me buy a hunk of shit that only got NOTHING for it

>>169435237
>4 real bosses

What the fuck are you talking about? We'vve already seen 5 bosses

>Stone Talus
>Hinox
>Molduga
>Volvagia
>Wind Blight Ganon

So is the game really non-linear after getting the paraglider or is more guided then a lot of marketers are saying?

>>169435237
Didn't Wii U not have an exclusive Zelda

>>169435492

you always know what the next story objective is but you can ignore it more thoroughly than you could on the Plateau

>>169435464
Giving an enemy a lot of health does not make it a boss. If you can run away from it, it's not a boss.

Do we know what the enemy is that was described in the gamexplain video? The one that just stalks you from miles away?

>>169435492
I think the only limitations are areas that require a lot of stamina to get to (climbing/swimming) or places that need temperature regulation... I guess my question is do enemies scale with areas?

That seems very debatable.

Also didn't majora's only have four bosses?

Every single day delivery trucks carry more expensive merchandise than $300 videogame consoles.

>>169435956
The number of major dungeons you prefer is just that, a preference. MM chose to focus on more bite sized content because of the constant time pressure.

>>169438579
Yeah there is no such thing as objectivity.

Go vote for Clinton again you liberal shit. There is an objectively good number of dungeons and 4 is outside the range

Will I need to do something specific in order to acces the different zones or can I go straight to them right after finishing all the stuff at the great plateau? Would right like to do the desert area first

With approx. 124 hours, or most specifically 7428 minutes or 445680 seconds to go, we're so close now to the end as we see lods of new shit daily now.

HOLY SHIT

>>169438807
Nope, as soon as you get the runes and the paraglider you can go wherever the fuck you want. I don't think many people with review copies have gone to the desert yet

Do I cancel GameStop though...?

>>169440169

that's my plan pretty much but no horse. I'll get a Walrus once I'm there. Probably going to go with an extra heart first but I'll see how stamina at base level feels before deciding for sure

>>169440169
First thing I'm going to do is to repeatedly tell myself I'm not missing out too much by playing the Wii U version. Hopefully after playing for a bit the feeling will go away and I can fully enjoy the game.

I've tried to avoid as much about the game as possible so I have no clue what I'll do when I actually start playing.

>>169440169

>>169440265
I'm a different anon but I find it obnoxious too and you can't avoid it, it seems like just a well timed dodge while staying in striking range activates it. It's not like the additional combat moves in TP where it's truly optional and I wish you could cancel out of it so you don't have to wait for the slow down to finish.

The gimick to Ganon is he takes so much damage that you need an unbreakable item to actually kill him, thus the game jews you out of your ability to beat him without the master sword which requires you to kill the bosses.

I don't really understand why people want to go to midnight launches so badly. Unless you're a third-shift worker who's actually nocturnal or something, You're not going to be up very long to actually play your cool new game. Better to go to bed instead and wake up nice and rested for a full day of fun.

>>169455829

Well, you know, just, have fun or something. Or call and tell them to move your system to another store?

>>169455978
Because I have children and an exact amount of hours off work to play this thing and losing 10 hours waiting between midnight and 10am for gamestop to open is going to literally kill me to the point that I'm picking out a grave plot right now.

>>169456074
>Or call and tell them to move your system to another store?
I'm going to try, but I already know the other store will be sold out and you can't move shipments between stores.

>>169455978
Partly it's the hype and the experience with everyone. But also, it just means you stay up a couple of hours longer to get the game, and if you're not planning on staying up the rest of the night playing, you can play the first moment in the morning after waking up, rather than waiting for the store to open and having to get the game then.

>>169455978
This is like asking why do people stay up till midnight on new years.

>>169455978
Because I'm NEET scum that doesn't go to bed until like 5 in the morning anyways.

Remember that Link started off as a sort of forest elf, to evolve into a babyfaced androgynous beta that surprises everyone by becoming a hero out of sheer courage. It's the gap what's appealing there, so he's never meant to look like prince charming, ultimate warrior or anything of the sort.

What a dumbass.

I pre-ordered mine from my local GameStop on January 19. For TPHD, they called like a week before to give me details and arrival times for the midnight release. Same for NMS.

We're less than a week away now, and I haven't gotten a call. Is this a regional thing? On the GS website it still has my order lsited, so it hasn't been cancelled. I don't want to be an autistic faggot who calls the store for details, but if I haven't been contacted by Thursday at noon, I will call to double check and make sure my order is still good.

This was actually leaked a while ago, but Hearts will COMBINE to form a big heart that represents 5. So at 30, if you get more hearts, the first five hearts of your bar will combine to provide the room needed for the rest.

I know there's that embargo that prevents reviewers from talking about villages and the shops therein but has anyone shown off what Beedle sells at least?

Did you get that off of the pop up descriptions for food?
Because I think that heart with a 5 over it is just a placeholder so they wouldn't have to fit 5 extra hearts into the description. It probably just heals you for 5 hearts plus however extra

Dude was probably on the don't-show list under the embargo.
We've yet to see any footage of Link so much as interacting with the guy

>>169465092
It was from a leak a WHILE ago when they were talking about health. It might have changed since then, since it looks like there is plenty of room for another row of 15 temp hearts. I wish I could remember what else he talked about, but at the same time I don't want to look it up. It would have been a thread on /v/. It was probably fake anyway and it just so happened to coincide with the food stuff.

Beedle isn't on the embargo. Nintendo asks that preview videos only contain certain weapons and armor, so that's possibly why they don't show him.

Where you going first?

>>169466069
Lake Hylia and looking for that fucking Dragon. After that, if I can avoid being eaten by said Dragon, look for a raft to go down the River and into the Ocean and finding out what is on the Islands out there.

I don't really understand the point of the amiibo rewards of your stuff just breaks anyways. Will you be able to just keep using them over and over to keep reclaiming the bonus sword/bow/shield or what?

>>169465214
That's too bad since I was hoping we'd get an idea of how important Link's relationship with NPCs would be. We already know that you can pretty much live off the land but I personally think wandering into settlements and stocking up/resting up before moving on is just as important to the feeling of being a traveling adventurer.

once per day per amiibo

Yea fuck it, i'm caving.

Gonna get a second hand Wii U. I just have one question, does this game support being fully played by the Pro Controller?

The big blocky Wii U "touch pad" looking controller is one of the main things that put me off the system in the first place.

>>169466997
They just give you an extra boost if you need it. Which is the way it should be. Locking any kind of content exclusively behind Amiibos would be the utmost of bullshit moves.

Since you can use a pro controller while playing the game on the Switch, once could logically make the connection that you could probably do the same on the Wii U

>>169467069
I assume that means once a real time day. Hmm, so I can build a stockpile of cool stuff if I don't use them often.

Sigh, my kingdom for an unbreakable sword.

>>169467247
I actually have no idea if it's real-time day or in-game day

>>169466069
Hyrule castle. Not touching anything else until I get a game over trying to fight Ganon.

>I just have one question, does this game support being fully played by the Pro Controller?
Yes.
>The big blocky Wii U "touch pad" looking controller is one of the main things that put me off the system in the first place.
It's pretty bad. I highly recommend getting the Pro controller.

Though at this point, why not a Switch? It's not that much more than a used Wii U and Pro controller. Unless you're planning on pirating it, I guess.

>>169466069
After exploring most of the initial area I want to go to that weird perfect circle at the left, then go to the death mountain.

>>169467287
It's a real day, it worked the same in Hyrule Warriors.

>>169467247
Don't worry too much about it, apparently people have been killing so fast that they eventually have a large stock pile of weapons and it seems the only way to run out is just to use your weapons poorly.

Also, it was leaked that the Master Sword is unbreakable after you repair it and that there is some kind of REALLY rare ore you can use to make any of your equipment unbreakable

>>169467431
source on that spoiler?

>>169467305

>Though at this point, why not a Switch?

Why get one? It has literally no exclusives that I want coming out any time soon and especially no backwards compatibility.

It's also a LOT more expensive than the Wii U. The Switch is around £300 here in Britbong land, Wii U used is around £50-90.

Throw in the defective Joy Con situation that came up and I might skip out on the Switch entirely unless Super Mario Odyssey turns out to actually be good.

>>169467528
The typical /v/ leaker, so take it with a grain of salt. Still, leaks seem to be becoming more and more of a thing here. I wouldn't bank on it all the same though.

>>169467305

>Though at this point, why not a Switch?

Not him but i'm not getting a Switch either. It literally has no games outside of Splatoon - Paid Online Edition, coming out in its first year. No chance in Mario or Xenoblade 2 releasing this year. People who are getting a Switch on release must have either skipped out on the Wii U at release or they forgot how long it took that heap of shit to get some legit games.

I'm going to most likely do what I always do with Nintendo consoles. Pick up a Switch on Black Friday a few years from now once it has an established library.

>>169467431
Maybe the really rare ore is from those meteors.
As if they needed another reason to make me want to explore those freaking things
