What are you doing to pass the time /v/?Should I replay OOT or WW, I'm torn help
Might as well dump the edge review
>>368650763
I'm replaying Ocarina of Time right now, the last time I played Wind Waker was for a No Death 3 Heart Run and I wanted to fucking kill myself, Wind Waker is horrendous.
>What are you doing to pass the time /v/?
Thinking about her.
>>368650763
>What are you doing to pass the time /v/?
Working.
Wage slave life sucks, but I'll give it this; it makes the days go a hell of a lot faster.
>>368650868
>>368650842
Sometimes I feel that I like WW more than OoT, sometimes the other way round
But I only played WW twice though
>>368650763
Question: the charge that gamestop did, is it the real charge or is it one of those that pops up and then goes away in a few days?
you're just setting yourself up for disappointment if you hype the game up so much
Very spoilerish video, shows towns, a cave, some more advanced weapons and NPCs
https://youtu.be/CjHXO01nGz0
>>368650874
I'M SO EXCITED
Watching some of the footage reminds me of when I first got OoT. I literally have not had that feeling with any other Zelda game.
>>368651013
Just enjoy the ride, nothing can stop the hype train for me after those previews so I just gave up
Playing it because my Switch and BOTW got here early.Paya is going to be a lot of people's waifu
>5 days
>not getting it at midnight
4 days, baby!
>>368650763
I'm completing Twight Princess HD 100%
>>368650763
>What are you doing to pass the time?
Relentlessly consuming any and all BotW-related media. Previews, news articles, webms, anything.
It passes the time but at the same time makes the wait feel that much more longer.
Can't wait to pirate this. Gotta have a reason use my $250 paperweight.
The Gamexplain post-play 30 minute video said and I quote at the end.
"Make a good memory soon, because you're going to want to remember where you were at in life and what you were doing when you first played BoTW."
My hype levels are critical. I haven't preordered a switch or a Wii U version so I HAVE to pirate it for my homebrew Wii U.
I'm sorry moralfags. I'm sorry. But I have to. Don't blame me blame the industry.
>>368650874
We play videogames specifically to get away from shit like that anon.It's why waifus exist.
>tfw you have a job with leave days that can be taken for any reason with 1 week notice
Friday is gonna be good
>>368651361
You fool, an iron will avoids these things
Uni starts up again on Monday but I've only got classes Monday to Wednesday. If it somehow arrives Thursday then I'll be fucking stoked. Last time I pre-ordered I got XBC3D a day early which was nice.
>>368651131
>early
What did you do?
>>368651068
The music is so comfy
>>368651068
It's become a real balancing act with spoiling myself these past few days.
Static images I'm okay with, articles describing shit I'm okay with too.
But actual footage of what the game is going to look like in motion?
Augh...
>>368650763
Re-playing all my zelda collection why not BY TIMELINE
>>368650874
>she's sitting behind me
feels good
>>368650874
She isn't thinking about you.
If you ever do cross her mind, she sniggers to herself at the thought of your existence and moves on instantly.
Why did you scroll over this you idiot? It could have been leaked story spoilers.
>>368651808
cuck
>>368650763
Neither, play Majora's Mask
College and multiplayer games will keep me busy. Probably not going to get to pick the game up until Saturday.
>tfw you get the game on the 3rd, but the Switch arrives the 6th
Those three days waiting will be hell.
>>368651171
It's releasing on the e-shop at midnight, right?
RIGHT??
Heh, while you wii babies gather in front of the stores throwing a hissy fit when there's no copies left, I'm going to be on my computer emulating it on Cemu in crispy 4k 120 fps
>>368651664
Nothing.
UPS dude rolled around right before I got home from getting lunch and was about to leave, I caught him right as he was about to leave a 'we came by but you weren't here' note
I thought it was something else I ordered from Amazon a couple of days ago sinde I was expecting that. but nope, it was my Switch and BOTW.
My Bomberman copy wasn't in there though so I'm guessing that'll actually come when it's supposed to
>>368651491
buy it on the e-shop...?
>>368651914
Just stare at the game while you're waiting
>>368651576
Iron still corrodes and chips away...
Everything just looks so tantalizing and cool anon!
>>368651981
Son of a bitch. Have fun man. I wish I had gone ahead and pre ordered it. Now after hearing about how the Wii U version goes down to the teens for FPS in some of the more heavy areas I just can't. Got to get a switch. At least I'll actually have more games to pick up for it in the months after, Mario Kart and Disgaea 5 complete and if this game is any indication, I will probably play it for months. Hell I played OoT and MM for years.
>>368651853
Hit a bit too close to home? :^)
really glad this is coming out at the start of Autumn here, seems like the perfect comfy game for the best season.
>>368652096
>Moblin swings big ass sword
>Link was so close he completely misses, but his back swing he actually pulls back, so the blade hits Link
It's the little things I swear. I don't think I have ever seen hitboxes this good. It puts Monster Hunter to shame and certainly kicks the shit out of Dark Souls. I don't think I will ever be able to go back to them after this. If things don't touch me, I shouldn't be hurt.
>>368651563
>Not taking your switch into work and playing it with your work wife and gay work buddy
Friday gonna be best day
WHERE IS THE WII U FOOTAGE.
I JUST WANT TO SEE HOW FUCKED THE FRAMERATE IS
>>368652602
It's actually not that bad.
Worse than the Switch, obviously, but still very serviceable. You will notice it maybe once your entire playthrough, in the exact places you'd notice it on the Switch too.
>>368650763
>What are you doing to pass the time /v/?
I have uni homework but I can't fucking focus because of video game hype. I was in middle school last time this happened to me.
>>368651914
At least you're able to play the game on the same month. I'm panning to buy the LE when it's available here in SEA and buy the switch 3 months later. The launch switch units here are bundle with Zelda and 1, 2 switch. I'll wait it out till there's standalone units available and see the bugs from the early adopter.
>>368651831
ITS A HABIT AND I HATE IT
>>368651131
>early
crooked mailman confirmed
>>368650763
I vote Wind Waker because BotW is basically the game I imagined when I saw Hyrule in WW for the first time
FUCK FUCK FUCK
Why didnt I preorder it
WHY
>>368650763
oot
ww is shit
After you've scrubbed all the floors in Hyrule, then we can talk about mercy!
>>368652791
because you're not a faggot?
>>368650763
Pretty much nothing. I am playing some Spelunky while listening to podcasts/radio here and there because it's hard actually getting invested in anything when the game is coming out so soon.
My amazon order's delivery date postponed until further notice, so now I have another order with Best Buy. If I can't get my hands on either I'm prepared to drive around store to store so I can get a copy on release day.
>>368650763
It belongs to wind waker timeline so go with that one
>>368652701
Where's the source, your words mean nothing to me. Worse than the Switch is pretty bad in my opinion because the framerate looks shit on the Switch.
Also, is there a severe graphical downgrade?
One final point, please don't tell me you're basing everything off the 2015/2016 gameplay videos
>>368652791
because youre a retard who watches southpark
"lol dont preorder anything ever :^)"
>>368652343
>Nintendo does things right
>Kills entire genre
Open world games are going to go the way of the 3D platformer.
>>368652701
If it lasts only a little while then I'm sure people would be fine with it. I'm mostly concerned if Hyrule Castle will be fine. All those Guardians, lasers going off, explosions. Seems like it would make the Wii U slow to a crawl. Considering I was already thinking about getting the Switch, maybe it's better to just bite the bullet and get it now instead of waiting for a price drop.
>>368651491
It's one of the biggest developer's biggest (budget wise) franchise, I don't think a few sales lost is going to hurt
>>368652774
Oh god, FUCKING THIS.
One of the biggest disappointments of my gaming life was getting to Hyrule Castle in Wind Waker for the first time, seeing the vast, open fields, and getting super excited because this was OBVIOUSLY a Link to the Past/Ocarina of Time situation where the game was split into two obvious parts; in this case three dungeons above water, five dungeons in the vast fields UNDER water. It was going to be great!
And then it's not. And you don't. And then there's only two dungeons.
Fuck.
>>368652602
e3 2016 footage my dude
there is tons of it
You've preordered the amiibos, right?
>>368652887
Well reviews were saying this feels like a genre defining game. Where everyone would look to this to see what to do right from now on. So we either get a bunch of awesome Open World games years from now. Or we have everyone give up because Nintendo made them look bad.
>>368652828
Naked 3 heart mop only run when?
>>368652791
Preorders are usually bullshit, but for high-profile, highly anticipated games like this one, available copies are not guaranteed, so it becomes a necessity if you want to play day one.
>>368652863
If you're the kind of person to get anal about framerates to begin with, why the fuck are you so worried about games on the WiiU or the Switch? It's inferior hardware either way.
Any Italybro here? What's the preorder/stock situation here?
I've been a retard and din't preorder and now I want to buy it at launch or soon after. Will I be able to get it at FUCKING GAMESTOP?
>around the time when i woke up at 3am regularly even though i didn't need to go into uni until 10am
>preorder switch as it goes up
>know i'll have shit tons of deadlines around march
>do it anyway
>budget myself so i'll have enough
>manage it
>shit tons of report deadlines and work to do
should have just waited until the next payday but fuck it, i'll play it friday drunk af.
>>368650763
Play Nier
>>368651943
>thinking you will be able to download 14GB from nintendo's online store on launch day
you'll be lucky to get the day 1 update
>>368653089
Preorders can still be gotten in europe I think
>>368653045
bullshit. But*
>>368653017
No, I just don't have the extra money with all the games coming out lately. I'm hoping I'll be able to find some the week after the Switch comes out since I'll get paid again.
>>368650763
Im getting on the PEEU, how bad are the frame drops?
Even if it really bad, nothing is gonna stop me.
>>368652791
In the same boat Anon, didn't think that I would be getting a Switch and knew that everyone would just want the Switch version. Now too worried that the Wii U version won't be anywhere close to the Switch and buying the same game down the line just isn't smart.
Lucky for me, the Walmart near my house doesn't do preorders, so I'll just go in on Thursday sometime in the afternoon and simply wait until Midnight. Did the same thing for the Wii and Twilight Princess all those years ago. Man, that brings back memories.
>>368652910
Inside hyrule castle is actually perfectly fine. It's not the effects that do it, it's the space.
The slowest I've ever seen the game (Exactly like the Edge review, actually) was gliding down a high mountaintop towards a village in the rain. It's not the enemies and effects that do it, or the physics, it's just the sheer scale.
The game has never slowed down during combat, or boss fights, or in dungeons, and you get up to a LOT of crazy shit in those places.
>>368653132
I've never had problems before.
Zelda might be different, because it's bigger, but it should be fine, I'd think.
>>368653230
The edge article says it drops into the teens at the most intensive parts but rarely drops when it counts. That's good enough for me desu.
>>368653230
we haven't seen the wii u version
handheld mode seems pretty stable on switch, tv mode has more drops because it's playing 900p while handheld is 720p like the wii u
i don't get the appeal of zelda series
explain it weebs
>>368653242
So it's a problem of having to render so much stuff. Yeah, I can certainly see that. Good thing most of the time you are going to be on the ground or if you are in the air, looking at the ground in front of you. So slowdowns shouldn't really occur with any kind of frequency, or at least ones that you can't mitigate in some fashion.
Still guess I'm going to get the Switch. I keep thinking of the game on the go and I can't help myself.
>>368653134
it's sold everywhere in europe. there's either nobody buying or nintendo provided an insane amounts of consoles, games and accessories
here's from a damn grocery store in norway
>>368652992
>old build
Doesn't tell me anything.
>>368653052
Because I want at the very least, a stable 30fps?
All of the Switch footage has pretty significant frame drops and that worries me for the Wii U.
But in fairness, the Switch is running at 900p whereas the Wii U is 720p so hopefully the Wii U is smoother.
>>368653427
It's the Hero's Journey condensed into a video game. The Hero's Journey speaks to the human psyche on a deep and primal level.
>>368653535
the framerate issues on the switch has been exaggerated
>The last thing I’d like to spend a few moments discussing in today’s preview is aesthetics and presentation. While it’s long been debated whether a game should or needs to run at 60 frames per second or 1080p+ resolution, there are few if any reservations I have thus far regarding Breath of the Wild’s presentation. I don’t miss the resolution on my 65-inch 4K Samsung KS8000 LCD television, and the frame rate doesn’t bother me in the slightest. Drops are occasional but quite rare, and really never bothersome.
https://youtu.be/bH3SqY8Ujs4
https://youtu.be/NYNRjcjL0eM
and he captured those two clips.
EDGE magazine said the wii u version would sometimes drop below 20 and it's definitely not better or smoother than the switch version, not even close.
>>368653535
Tells you more than your nonsense rambling, to be honest. You're looking for answers that people obviously don't have so why don't you just shut the fuck up and go back to staring at your wall.
>>368650763
Neither, dont burn yourself out before the game is out, hold your breath and let it go wild.
>>368651491
I broke up with my gf and lost my job. Nice memory I guess.
>>368653893
>>368651808
I miss the feeling of cuddling with a thicc and tall woman. I'm a manlet and I'll never learn but she made me feel like that was okay. When I played vidya with her and I die or get upset, she'd let me play with her tits to calm down. And she had a thing about being lewd around friends and family but trying to be secretive. But one day she just kinds stopped talking to me. We are a couple cities apart so we usually always talk to each other online. She's blocked me on Facebook so that was the final nail in the coffin of my relationship. I know she doesn't care about me anymore. I know she's found someone better than me. It's not hard to. So how can I forget her /v/? She was so perfect.
>>368651491
BotW could be the greatest game of the past decade and Gamexplain would still sound like complete shills
>>368653836
>the framerate issues on the switch has been exaggerated
No it hasn't, virtually every video i've seen has had framerate issues, it's not a stable 30fps at all.
You're going to need to get me more than some literal who shill to prove me otherwise, especially when GameXplain and Digital Foundry noted Framerate problems.
>>368653838
>You're looking for answers that people obviously don't have
Thanks for wasting my time, this is literally all I was looking for you dumb shill
>>368654023
Reminder.
>>368653025
That is a great win win scenario
>>368653427
i dont get the appeal of whatever normie faggotshit you're into
explain it normie
After hearing Amazon has been delaying Wii U preorders, I am literally shaking I won't be able to pick up my Wii U preorder at midnight at Best Buy. What am I supposed to do bros?Who am I kidding, I won't even have time to play it. Fuck college.
>>368654023
if she ghosted you she obviously didn't give a shit about you
it might hurt now but you won't even remember her when you're happily married and have a family years down the line while she becomes a fat used up roastie

Amazon Wii U version purchasers, are they seriously pushing back some preorders to April?
I'm seriously contemplating dropping the 20% off discount and just picking it up at Best Buy or something.
>Have a big test on the release week
Looks like the game's coming out on the 10th for me, haha...
>>368654719

Ive never seen such a blatent profiteering attempt in my life
>>368654719
Yes, it's clear that you don't know what it's trying to convey. It's not comparing graphics, it's the draw distance.
>>368654832

>>368654942
>its not comparing graphics, its comparing this one specific part of the games graphics that zelda can do better because it has a lower definition
>>368655043
Yeah, you got it.
>>368655013
now try looking at the textures close up
>>368655113
>what is atmosphere?
I've played every Zelda title to date, but this one just isn't doing it for me. The whole 'open world, minimal story, do it your way' isn't at all compatable with Zelda. If I wanted to roam around a countryside, I'd just play an MMO or one of the countless open world RPGs. The fun in Zelda was the impactful and amazing closed zones that left a huge impression, everything I've read is saying that they're taking a huge step away from that in favor for opening the world up for exploration.
So they remove the impactful dungeons, and added a generic open world. I'm not impressed at all.
>>368655161
k
>>368655043
I would rather play a game with Gamecube-tier graphics and a far draw distance than one with "Ultra HD 4K Epic 20,000 Polygon" graphics and a draw distance of 4 feet.
Being able to see things is more important in terms of playability.
>>368654404
How does black cock combined with sjw cock taste? Both of them have got to fit in your mouth at the same time
>>368655180
>So they remove the impactful dungeons
literally where has this been said?
y'all have to learn the difference between distance fog and aerial perspective fog
the latter requires more computational power than without
>>368655043
Obviously HZD has the better definition and more power behind it. But what else does it have going for it? I want to like that game but it's so unpolished. I'm tired of developers pushing shit to the max so the game looks pretty but ends up buggy as fuck.
>>368655232
mah nigga
>>368655254
Press reviews. All of them I've read have said that the dungeons are far shorter than in previous installments, and there's only 4 dedicated ones.
>>368655180
>The whole 'open world, minimal story, do it your way' isn't at all compatable with Zelda.
"I have never played Zelda 1 or 2: The Post"
>>368655180
At least wait until the game is out before you start spouting non-factual bullshit. Give me one example of an open world game that does what little we've been shown of BoTW.
>>368655298
Except the EDGE review says there are six.
>>368653132
Didn't Nintendo allow you to preload Xenoblade Chronicles X? Why in hell wouldn't they do the same for Zelda?

>>368655180
They've been copying LTTP with a twist for 26 years now. It's enough, it's time to do something fresh with the series.
>>368655446
>>>/f/acebook
What are you even doing on /v/?
>>368655446
How can anyone be excited for Zelda when it will be pretty much unplayable, barely getting 20 fps?
>>368655515
Chatting about video games, chode.
>>368655583
You can do that with your fellow adults on facebook, """"pal""""
I really am so excited. I've been playing Zelda games since my parents got me a n64 when I was 6 years old. God I was so stupid back then, took me like half a year before even realizing you could become an adult. I thought the entire game was just the spiritual stones so imagine my surprise when I pulled that sword out of the stone. Such a good feeling like when Zelda dies 1/3rd of the way through BOTW son Nintendo could make it seem so dark an edgy.
>>368655643
I don't know is the same thing with BB.
>>368655576
That's 20 more fps than girls you've slept with

literally reads like a promo piece and not a professional review. three pages long and the only criticism is basically "yeah, the framerate on the wii u drops during particularly busy scenes, but it's ok". fuck whoever wrote that "review". fucking hack.
>>368655576
I don't know is the same thing with BB
pity you can't register deer to stables, maybe there will be a special stable to do so

LOL!!!!!
>>368655180
>The whole 'open world, minimal story, do it your way' isn't at all compatable with Zelda
All the 2D games were like this though, and in Wind Wakerr they still gave you a huge world to explore however you want.
>>368655643
Facebook is for kids.
Are you an idiot?
>>368655753
Sometimes people aren't that bothered by framerate drops, my man. Reviewers should be used to it by now. They said it doesn't happen much during combat sequences anyway
so who /NEET/ here?
it's time like this I love being a NEET. will probably nolife zelda for the rest of the month, only pausing for sleep and ordering food.

>>368655325
>going back to a gameplay model from the 80s is a good idea
???
>>368655337
What, gimicky bullshit? It's basically in every game now days. This looks exactly like your average Far Cry, maybe with a bit of polish and
>>368655454
That's been the reason I've played the damn games.The LTTP format is brilliant. And Nintendo has been the only company using the format, so with them gone, it's basically dead.
>>368655809
LTTP format still had a primary focus of linear progression, instead of an open sandbox. I don't care if the world is open with a Zelda title, I want to dungeon crawl. I want interesting items that progress me through the environment of the given area, then unlocking ways to backtrack or progress through the open world.
>>368655858
framerate drops are a problem, particularly if they go below 20, but that wasn't the point of my post. my point was that the review was written by a hack that didn't criticize the game one bit. it's literally perfect.
This from Chris Carter Destrucoid who gave horizon 7.5 and witcher 3 number 8. He has played Botw for 30 hours. This what he said about open world of Breath of wild.
>"A lot of open world games feel checklisty. This is a big Ubisoft problem, but it also came up again for Horizon Zero Dawn, and was one of my biggest criticisms for that game.
>But with Breath of the Wild, it doesn't feel like going through the motions. You can make your own stories by raiding a Bokoblin camp, finding out a new cooking recipe on your own, chopping down some trees, or meet some wacky Nintendo character while you're traveling from point A to point B.

>Take radio towers. Breath of the Wild has them. But they aren't too numerous, and most of them have their own little mini-puzzles to solve, as well as an interesting character to meet at the top that has a unique sidequest. Looking over the massive spires into the open world is actually fun, and you can use a telescope (with its own icon/stamp creator) to scout out new locations. They went above and beyond the typical open world blueprint." "There are some areas that feel more barren than others. But traversing them still felt fun, and I'd say as a whole it's less empty than Twilight Princess. There's a surprising amount of shrines, small towns, etc to find."

No but seriously, Nintendo and friends make some good-looking low-key water.
Like Half-Life 2 bashed you over the face with its fancy resource hogging realistic water, but Star Fox Adventures had better looking water that was juts sort of in the background, no big deal.
So I preordered the game from Amazon about a month ago, and I just wanted to know when I can expect it to arrive? I've never pre-ordered off of Amazon before so I don't know how it works. Also, I'm looking to get a capture card for my Wii U and was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for one.

>implying the gameplay model is the problem instead of the handholding and tutorials
The only reason the 3d zelda titles were successful was because they offered linear progression through fun and varied environments, with dungeons that offered fun ways to make use of an item obtained in said dungeon, allowing it to be far more complex than a 'walk forward' simulator like most adventure games.
The problem was that Nintendo failed to execute on this, and created systems that diluted it, with poor items and poor wold and dungeon design. The desire for a more open world was based purely off of poor level design in both TP and SS. The lack of viable backtracking and out of dungeon item use in TP, and the retarded amount of depthless backtracking in in SS. Nintendo can't land a happy medium,
>>368656275
Yay, repetitive use of the gamepad movement gimick in countless mini-puzzles. Doesn't sound like Zelda to me, sounds like horse shit.

Wow, considering the size difference between the two, that's pretty nice. You would think a massive world would have less to do, but all Twilight Princess' Hyrule field was good for was a few bugs to catch and the occasional chest with a heart piece.
>>368656632
>gamepad movement gimmick
What. And how are the puzzles shown horseshit, especially compared to other zeldas?
Also some shrines are combat focused, and have minibosses at the end.

>with dungeons that offered fun ways to make use of an item obtained in said dungeon
Only 3d game that did this well was Wind Waker and that was hampered by shit dungeon design anyway. OoT was actually pretty dull on the item use front. You got the Bow in the Forest Temple and you use it to twist a corridor and in the battle with the Poe Sisters and then the boss. Fire Temple had the Megaton Hammer, which was a little better, you batted blocks out of the way and used it on rusty switches and on big pillars to create a place to jump to the boss door, compariable to the Hammer in it's 2d incarnations. Water Temple was the Long shot, which was honestly barely used, one room required it and it was the room to get the big key for the boss. Shadow Temple was the Hover Boots and these were used quite a bit in the Shadow Temple, but not in a good way really, pretty much the same problem with the Roc's Cape in the Oracle games, merely a jump extender. They weren't even really effective as a means to fight the boss. Spirit Temple was the Mirror Shield, the first instance of interesting puzzles and dungeon design based around the item of the dungeon and they did this by spliting the dungeon between Child and Adult. If only the other dungeons had been as creative.

Yeah that's why I said I'd wait a few more months for standalone units. Or if they don't come I'll wait for better bundles and by June I'm sure there's gonna be another bundle. Maybe even a splatoon 2 one If I'm lucky plus E3's around the corner.
Speaking of prices the price here was around $440-$500 based on the pre-order. They haven't finalized the price yet. I think $440 is fair for the bundle + tax but $500 is overstepping it.

And contrary to your argument, you even said he criticizes the framerate. But everything on this planet has flaws. A 10 simply means it's one of the best possible experiences you can have in video gaming at the current time. Not that it's perfect and without flaws.
>>368657397

Guys I need help and comfort. Finances got unexpectedly really tight this past month. Do I cancel the Switch and play the inferior Wii U version? Or do I wait until like the 10th to get BotW?
Know that the thought of playing this is literally keeping me alive, and when I'm done with the game, I am committing suicide.
>>368657963
Uh anon please don't. Play it on the Wii U if finances are this tight. You can make it anon.What happened

>>368657397
I disagree 3 hours are better especially since there are apparently only 4 dungeons(4.5 if you count Ganon's endgame Dungeon).
Honestly most of worries about BoTW have been assuaged other than dungeons and potentially story(20 hours is a bit short for main quest zelda, especially since large).
I'm hoping that there are a lot of important story elements that are in side quests and other regions.

>>368657963
pawn your wii u hopefully that will give you enough to get the switch without running the risk of not being able to find it anywhere on the 10th, and when you get paid you can get your wii u back it'll be worth the $15 fee

>4.5
I don't know, Gannon's castle seems large enough tot be a full dungeon in itself. It's not like castles haven't been large dungeons in zeldas before. And I guess the twenty hours is by rushing through the whole thing. Most zeldas are also around twenty if you know what you are doing, the length seems okay in BotW given that you have no long obnoxious intro.
>>368656970
>Nintendo sets the bar that all other open world games have to meet to be considered a 10, or have to get close to to be considered a 9

Only downside is that Cyberpunk is probably going to get delayed a year or two so they don't just use the same Witcher 3 formula.

>>368658408
>how the Wii U gamepad is utilized on the Wii U version
as a controller and that's literally it. I was in the same boat thinking that surely the gamepad would add tons of neat gameplay enhancements especially since the initial E3 demo used some. They claim it was axed because a second screen is a "distraction" but in reality they didn't want the gamepad superiority to one up the switch
>>368658194
Why shouldn't the castle be counted as a full dungeon.
I'm not particularly worried about dungeon number as there are some pretty large shrines as said by some previews and Aonuma, and they can provide the puzzle fix.
And isn't twenty hour kind of standard for zeldas? I doubt you should skip past all the shrines either, as I doubt three hearts is enough to tackle Ganon
>>368658675
Going from glitch climbing mountains in Skyrim to actually climbing them in BOTW... Man can't wait.
Do you guys think that if Horizon would have released on the 7th instead of February 28th that its review scores would have been in the low 80 / upper 70 region instead?
Could it have been intentional to release it in late February to ensure that it would be out before Zelda had a chance to be out (since we knew the Switch was releasing in March as of October of last year)
I was looking at recent high-ranking game reviews and it baffled me that TLoU, Uncharted 2, and GTAV are all 95-98
This game has to get a perfect 100 or at least repeat OoT 99
>>368658738
>Perhaps one of the most striking differences in the early portion of the game we played was the amount of weapons at your disposal, and the fact that they end up breaking very quickly.
This stands in contrast to previous Zelda games where you would collect just one or two weapons throughout the course of the game.
Having to manage an inventory is no bad thing – countless other games have included it as a feature to great effect – but Breath of the Wild’s inventory feels like it was designed to be managed with the Wii U’s gamepad, and it ends up feeling a little clunky on the Switch.

For all the faults of the Wii U’s gamepad (a cheap construction and poor battery life being the worst offenders) it was absolutely amazing at managing inventories.
Rather than having to pause the game to switch items in a game like Wind Waker HD, the gamepad instead made it easy to switch equipped items without having to pause the action.
It allowed you to do two things at once, which is perfect for a series like Zelda which involves switching between many items to solve puzzles.
The Switch doesn’t have this benefit, and the situation is made worse by the way you constantly have to rearrange your inventory to throw away weapons as they break."
What the fuck guys? The Wii U version might actually be superior. What the fuck do i do now? It's either buy a Switch + BotW, and i'll probably get a Switch anyways at SOME point, or just buy BotW on Wii U, endure a few frame drops and worse sound.

The Shrine's are the main reason I'm not too worried about dungeons. Especially if their are some psuedo-dungeons in length in them which it seems like their might be.
Ganon's castle isn't a true dungeon IMO. Although sometimes it's about as long as a dungeon other time's it's a lot shorter. Just depends on the game.
20 hours for a Zelda game is definitely a bit shorter for main quest line.
Skyward sword was supposed to be 35 hours, same with twilight princess, Wind Waker was a bit shorter around 25-30 hours.
I've always loved the story in the 3D Zelda game so hopefully this gives me my fix.
>>368655298
>the dungeons are far shorter than in previous installments, and there's only 4 dedicated ones
And 120 shrines. Would you rather have 8 dungeons and 50 holes in the ground?
Also, sometimes less is more. I thought the dungeons in the 3D games, especially TP and SS, were so long that they actually dragged.

can someone explain how patches and DLCs will work when the whole game is run from a cartridge? like will there be noticeable slowdowns or whatever in DLCs area since you have that on disk since I assume loading etc is faster from the game cartridge
onii-chan!
>>368650763
I'm looking forward to Zelda, but not getting a switch at launch.
I'll get it at the end of the year, by that point I will be able to pick up Zelda, MK8, Odyssey and hopefully a Smash port.
Also I assume the joycon problem will be resolved.
I got pretty big meaty hands, would be shit if I got control lag just because of that.
>>368662012
SPOILER THAT SHIT
there are also a fuckton of animals. Maybe some of them are enemies too
notable ones:Rhino, hawk, cassowary, bear, bull, kokko, Ptarmigan, Sunazarashi, Rupee Rabbit
>>368650763
if I wanted to buy it, is there even a way to get a switch + botw on launch now? or all sold out
>>368662185
Probably the same way it works with 3DS, patches and download content is sideloaded at runtime
>>368651831
I'm sure Link will save the princess and defeat Ganon.
>>368662185
It's just a read only SD card. People who keep calling this thing a cartridge like it's any different from a 3DS are retarded. It still technically can be described as a cartridge, but it's not at all like old cartridges.

>>368661962
>>368662012
>no redeads
>no skulltulas
>no deku babas
say it ain't so.
Still Switches here in Australia, plenty I assume as they have yet to put any "FINAL UNITS" banners on their websites, only grey though, which is fine cause thats what I would want.
I wasn't planning till getting one later in the year, but its entirely possible to get one now.
A Switch and BoTW would be like $560.
Should I get one now or just wait it out?
I mean if I wait then hopefully the Joycon will be fixed and who knows, they might discount it a bit by the end of the year, or pack in a game, EB probably if Nintendo doesn't officially.
What do?
>>368662313
>>368662445
so does the switch have to read from two sources at the same time then? I'm used to installing all games and then patch them as normal. last time I used cartridges was a long time ago and patches was not really a thing back then
>>368662680
Yeah, it will read from both. Maybe even three if you count the game card, internal storage, and optional SD card.
>>368662658
only you can answer that my man. How much do you want to play zelda on release?
I bought a ps4 to play bloodborne, and I didn't buy a new game for probably 8 months+ and I still felt the purchase was worth it. I probably spent 500 hours on that game.
same thing this time around really, it's a zelda machine for me until xenoblade/mario in november/december.

It's going to be too late, I just know it.
Havent read the huge spoiler leak here but to those who have: is the story decent?
>>368663181
Ive heard bad things about the switch.
I'm sick of wii u being bashed anyway. this is a fucking wiiu game. it was designed with that hardware in mind.
>>368663220
The leak so far only involves datamining of assets, we don't know anything about the story.
>>368663220
No story details, we know the final boss. Looks to be a 2 or 3 phase fight, final fight might be locked depending on whether you completed all dungeons.
>no spider enemies in leak
Do you need any other sign that it is an incomplete list
>>368663489
Were spiders already shown? If not, I'm pretty sure it's a complete list.
>>368663296
maybe at the beginning but that 3gb download doesn't really scream made for WiiU in mind
>>368663296
Exactly I think Switch owners are trying to justify their purchase. Instead of using the portability the jump to graphics and performance proving that most gamers are graphics whores. Unfortunately everything points to the difference being present but not so strong it becomes a completely different experience
I'm going to play this on my Wii U and I'm going to love it but I would've loved it more if they hadn't stripped it of Gamepad functionality as everyone agrees the inventory would've been better managed on there
>>368663382
Oh thats ok then. No biggy. Thanks man.
>>368663420
>2 to 3 phase fight
I think my hopes of beating ganon at the start are gone.
>>368663589
I love handhelds and the Switch is (also) Nintendo's next handheld, thus I want it. Zelda is just a nice bonus.
>>368663563
No, but every other Zelda game has one
Paya is missing too

Which is fine but all I ever hear is the Wii U is going to be a slideshow and the weather forecast will always be foggy
>>368663220
There are story implications if you look hard enough in the pastebin. I don't want to say it here because some poor soul might come across it accidentally

Is fishing confirmed or not?
Leak is not full, apparently
>>368664482
>>368664486
It's looking pretty gay so far. Just swim up to a fish and press A. I hope there's real fishing too.
I wonder if the map navigation will be anything like SotC, where it isn't just a straight line A to B but you actually need to figure out the terrain.
>>368664486
There is a beastiary for fish
>>368664531
Well, depends on what you mean by "full."
That pastebin is "every string that appears in the update's code", which means it's complete (as the update will have more strings than the base game, necessarily).
But whoever posted it can't leak the full game because they can't play it.
>>368664636
So what is missing
Does the game have normal dungeons aside of those shrines? Not that I care really.
Crying as I'll never play this game.
>>368664716
Seems to have5, excluding 2 mazes
>>368664536
grenade fishing is possible. you can throw a bomb into the water and detonate it, then just collect all the dead fish.

>>368664953
>>368665013
Nvm, saw it, thanks dude, something to consider.
>>368661724
Here's the thing.Lynels are basically the Darknuts of this game.
They're four legged, armored, faster than horses when they're dashing, and wield a variety of weapons. Stripping their armor with magnesis, hammers, or bombs is a near necessity.
They can also breathe fire and throw things if disarmed.
Basically you have the best of both worlds and they will continue to kill you even when you get the Master Sword.
>>368665152
W-whoa
What are the assassins
Why are all these bloggers getting a switch and the game early so utterly shit at playing videogames?
>>368652096
At least my lightning-dodge training in FFX is going to prove useful.
>>368665236They're new. No real enemy history. You can't rest at fireplaces if one is on your trail.
"It doesn't feel safe to rest right now..."
Blow guns, swords, and knives that catch swords. They're hard to kill but you never meet them in groups. Your only hope to escape them is to find a horse or elk.
>>368665462
Do the enemies feel varied enough throughout the game?

>>368665512
Yes. They're a little too universal, maybe? But there is a lot of variety. Each enemy has two strength variants, and within those variants there are multiple weapon types. Each enemy uses weapons differently. There's also plenty of minibosses. Notice how minibosses aren't there?Gohma, Hinox, Stalfos, Dinolfos to name a couple.
>>368665667
I hope shadowmasters are in.

>>368666237
Correct. There are still strings on the disc not mentioned here.

Yeah, was bored with the game 'till I left Hyrule castle and thought that now finally the real game starts. Crushing disappointment followed. Dropped the game right there.

>>368667076
I really like the graphics/art style. My concern is that it's going to be Skyrim: Nintendo Edition. Even that review posted at the start of this thread only increases my fear. When you only spend 20 hours or so with a game, it can be tough to see that seemingly endless random events become repeated, stale and derivative (ie Skyrim). Still holding out hope that it's not, but I'm not loving the fact that dungeons/temples are gone and replaced by tiny shrines.
>>368667589
Eh no? They never said they spent twenty hours only, they said you migh be able to finish it in twenty if you rush through eveything
>>368665632
I just made theSwitchfrom Amazon to Best Buy. Just getting Wii U though. Mine says 3/3 but for some reason there's a rumor Best Buy ones might be coming a day early, that some people have seen 3/2 delivery dates. I would cum if that was true. Just once I want to get a game early. The closest I ever did was playing XCOM 2 early by using a VPN to unlock it.
Turns out the final boss has 5 forms
>>368667589
Keep up with the news.
20 hours if you only go purely through the story missions and only that.
Dungeons are still in as well as shrines. Do research before making statements like that anon.
>>368667770
Rip speedrunners
>>368667515
if there's any kind of fishing hole with fishing, as opposed to being able to fish anywhere in the game world, i'd still be a bit disappointed but feel OK.
No fishing rod anywhere would be heartbreaking, I fucking loved all the fishing mini-games. The biggest fuck you ever was playing SS for hours only to realise that there was no fishing, despite all the gimmicky wiimote bullshit. I stopped playing there and then.
The fact that there is spear fishing at least is cool.

How much time do you think they spent? Reviewers don't have time to sink 100 hours into the games they review.
MGSV had the same problem. Reviewers only spent around 30 hours with the game, which is coincidentally where it goes to hell.

So what you see here is from the text dump from the update file.

Lynels are basically Darknuts that breathe fire and can keep up with your horse. You can ride them and attack their backs. There are assassins that stalk you. There are multiple dragon enemies. There are fishing holes. There are minigames. Magnet Gloves are in. You can surf. We have a nearly full overworld location list.

Here's wolf Link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CfFnLoiLqk
Pic related is some other dog, but I can't confirm that one is actually following Link. Maybe I don't have a confirmation there are others besides wolf Link, but it would seem silly to have the feature just for Amiibo. I know they're trying to make money, but it being wolf Link with all the correct sound effects and everything should be incentive enough for people. Hope we really do get other doggos.

>>368656257
This is the first time I've looked forward to a Nintendo game in a long while, but I agree, the framerate drops are unfortunate.
I'm sure I'll love BotW, but the Switch is a piece of shit.
>>368667816
I'm sure some autist will do it within a week
then in a month someone will do it with a mop or broom
>>368669070
Well I consider some WIi U games musts. Mario Kart 8 was one, but it's getting a Switch port. I think it's the best Smash personally, hopefully it gets ported. Also DK Tropical Freeze, one of the best sidescrolling platformers IMO. Nintendo seems to be on a good trend of releasing good ports though, people seem to like the HD Zelda ports for Wii U though I never played them. \
I'm personally not getting a Switch yet though, but I probably would for Zelda if I didn't have a Wii U already.

>>368669810
Hylians pass stories of a destined time long past where multiple races lived and worked together in harmony. The Sheikah Tribe’s blue aura breathed through the land and this mutual prosperity continued until a cataclysmic disaster stuck. The Hero and the Princess attempted to seal the terror which became known as the Calamity Ganon. Divine beasts awoke from four directions and deployed a mechanical army which made the King and his people fearful. They fractured Ganon’s power and sealed him, but the Sheikah were banished from the land ever since.”

I didn't expect to complete them both, but I can't do anything that's not Zelda related so literally all I've been doing is that.

What spoilers? It's a fucking Zelda game.
Link fights Ganon. He saves the princess and Hyrule. What a spoiler. It's not like that happens in every game.
Oh, he meets someone? Cool, I don't fucking care.
Link fights this huge monster? Again, cool. Tell me something that isn't obvious. It's a Zelda game. You can't be spoiled on something you already know about.
Still unsure whether to preorder this or Horizon or neither.
I like the setting of Horizon (past technologies people don't know a lot about anymore) and fighting robot animals seems kind of cool.
On the other hand Zelda's more interactive world seems cool.
Most likely both will have a pretty bland and forgettable story.
>>368670553
>He saves the princessNot this time. She's already dead.
>>368670553
But Zelda games all have plot twists. For example in Wind Waker the king is a boat and Zelda is a pirate
I just want someone to upload the ost.

I still can't believe we don't even get a fucking map on he Wii U game pad. Let's just release games where the game pad fucking destroys it like Star Fox, but not use it for something that's not part of the action gameplay like a map. What a fucking shitshow of a console at every fucking turn, I'm glad I bought it refurbished. I would honestly just throw the fucking game pad with its 15 minute battery life in the trash if it wasn't required to change Wii U settings.
my first time preordering a game on amazonprime and this is the release date i get?

That's wrong though. An article was posted two days ago that says you can switch weapons in real time on the gamepad. I imagine the map is still there.

>preordering any hyped up product online
You're just begging to be one of those "I got it a week late" horror stories. Should have just left the house and ordered it in-store somewhere.

Delays on Amazon seem to only be happening for the Wii U version - could be they oversold and are short on stock.

Zelda is completely fucked on Amazon. I've had great results in the past with Amazon preorders, but it has been many years since I had. Cancel it right now and preorder from Best Buy's website. Free release day shipping, though you're not gonna get that nice Prime $12 discount. Also cross your fingers that Best Buy comes through, never preordered from them before, but Amazon is not guaranteeing release day delivery at all for Zelda now and some people talking to tech support said it could be April before it ships.

Can I see that article? I remember reading confirmations that the game pad is nothing more than a clone of the TV screen now.

pretty sure it was a release date delivery when i ordered it, but that was almost a year ago and i didnt think to screenshot it
>>368653017
Yes, all of them
And I won't open them and use the amiiqo on the game - or maybe don't, since it looks like optional content.

It seems I was wrong. We simply don't know what the Wii U gamepad does.
>>368671126
It was, mine was too. Said March 3 delivery. But they ran out of stock and they don't care when you preordered it, it's like completely random who gets to keep their preorders. You can wait it out a little bit I'm sure, but I wouldn't risk waiting too long before it's too late if you plan on ordering from someone else.
Nintendo are assholes for not letting people see dungeon footage outside of the beast ones.
Like what the hell did they want people to be worried about only 4 dungeons?
>>368670368
/r/ the bow and arrow one
>>368671372
They wanted to surprise people by not spoiling anything
>>368666460
Just tell them to line their dicks up with your mouth.
They'll get it. That's how I taught my students.
>>368671264
I'm almost glad I can just use the pro controller without any frets, but it would still be super nice if it actually made use of it.
>>368670678
The esrb has gotten more lenient over the years. The same thing happened with movies where you can talk about sex and say fuck less than 4 times and still get a pg13. It's also about the content more than the themes.
>>368671265
after checking my order emails, amazon never had a march 3 date
on november 9th they updated the estimated release date to march 31 and never changed it to the official nintendo release date
Will Zelda have a 100% attach rate on launch? I mean think anout it, who's going to buy a Switch without Zelda?
>>368654389
Im over thirty, still haven't forgotten my first love from over ten years ago, and last I saw her online she was married and still qt.
im also a loser.
>>368671643
Mine said March 3, then said no estimate, and now it says nothing because I cancelled. I would not trust Amazon to deliver on time considering we're less than a week away with no estimate. Now is the time to switch to someone else so it can get processed before they start shipping.
My Amazon pre-order says it's expected to ship on March 3. I thought they had launch day delivery.

Has there been a confirmation on if the Wii U version has language options or not? Aonuma said that you could change the system settings on the Switch to play the game in Japanese, and the Wii U version is nearly the same filesize
>>368671647
I have a feeling there might be a weird casual crowd that literally only gets it and 1 2 Switch. Tiny percent though, maybe like 3%.
>>368671647
I guess. That's probably why they didn't include other titles in the shorter Super Bowl commercial which was the one that was aired.
>>368671806
Are you sure it doesn't say "arriving on March 3"? You'd be the lucky one if so
>>368668795
Aonuma did say that BotW "isn't particularily dark". Going by that, I think it isn't going to be nearly as dark and depressing as people keep insisting it is.
>>368670690
Really sparks your synapses.
any hope of picking up a switch sometime maybe 2 weeks after launch? I really dont want to have to be there at midnight
My Amazon still says it's arriving Friday.

So if this leak really does have everything they really fucked up in terms of enemy variety. Having fewer unique enemies than the first half of DeS could easily bring out the worst in the open world, but we'll see.

Is the season pass available for the Wii U version as well?
>>368668650
Can we dive underwater ?
>>368662613
I can rest easy now
>>368662680
Yes, your saves are stored on the switch too. There shouldn't be any lag because of DLC
>>368658470
Oh im ready for max comfy.
Sadly I'll be playing Zeruda on the WiiU
