>Malon (マロン, Maron?) is a recurring character in the Legend of Zelda series. In a majority of her appearances, she and her father Talon are the owners of Lon Lon Ranch, where they raise cows, Cuccos, and horses. Malon also frequently appears in conjunction with the mare Epona as well as "Epona's Song".

There's barely any WiiU copies out in the wild, everyone that got Zelda is currently making mad clicks from the Switch coverage so they're not going to shit all over that.

Juding from some of the leaked assets and from that list it seems to be the ultimate fanservice Zelda game.

Pastebin has everything OP. Except character dialogue and proper names. Its code stuff, but everything can fit in it. Its not missing anything - the game itself is just missing what we were all expecting. More enemies, more shiekah magic, more reason to be hype instead of gettin swindled.

BotW is basically the result of what if MGS5 and Dark Souls 2 had a baby.

>>368765062
What. The magic runes aren't even in the pastebin. And how do you know what is in the encrypted code. It's not the full leak, as said by an anon yesterday. He proved it by giving the tik, which is for the update only. It only contains stuff that will be updated in the day 1 patch.

>>368765062
>swindled

Nice shitpost. And there is more Sheikah Magic, as proven by the edge reveal. Each defeated beat gives you an ability (one lets you breeze through the game, apparently)

>>368765413
Oh, so there are dinoflos. Why did they group it under lizalfos then? That means there actually might be more than we imagined, given the many tags of senior and junior whatever. I expect wolfos to be under wolves as well, there are types A,B and C

Will this game get straight near perfect scores?

>>368765528
You can repair. Multiple flags in the datamine corroborate it. Its a feature in the game.

>>368765528
I think there is a repair bench in the leaks

But I guess scavenging is the main gameplay loop

>>368765559
Cause dinolfos have always just been resinned lizalfos i'd imagine.

>>368765660
They behave pretty differently though

We don't know what the upgrades do besides decreasing cooldown for bombs. We might get to freeze multiple objects with Stasis, or maybe the final upgrade just has the whole world freeze.

Also, Cryonis, how the heck would this get upgraded? Bigger pillars? A long pillar so you don't have to cast it multiple times?

>>368765732
And it seems that enemy variants even within the same 'group' behave very differently.

>>368765903
Then why are some people complaining about enemy variety. As long as they behave differently it shouldn't be a problem? Unless you are worried about aesthetics or something. Even the Giant has large, medium small iirc

And funny thing is not one of the previews complained about enemy variety.

Because they like to see the series staples and getting pretty much a majority humanoid enemies feels bad. All these cool abilities, but we don't get things like Dodongos to blow up with our cool magic bombs.

I'm sure the things that are there will be great, but it always sucks to think that the games system held it back from being even better.

>30 fps with frequent dips to 15-20
Call me an autist but I've been spoiled by perfect framerate for a while and expected at least stable 30. I can't play with that.

Everything else about the game seems alright, but that kind of makes it unplayable for me to be honest.

>>368766182
Some humanoid enemies behave like animals, right?

For example lizalfos jump around like crazy and charge at you horns lowered. I think Lynels should also be quite different, given that they can breathe fire and are faster than horses.

I think so far for non humanoid we have
>Chu chu
>Keese
>hawk
>guardian
>wolf
>bear
>dragon


The main funny thing is that there are no spiders. I guess Guardians are their replacement. I would love to see the dragons (?) from TP return, but I guess that is for another day

>>368766362
>frequent

What? You playing the Wii U version or something bruv. Most impressions say they are infrequent, and almost never happen in combat. Even DF only found 2 dips lasting about 2 seconds each in 40 minutes, and the lowest was to 20fps, and that was the non-retail version

>>368766459
>You playing the Wii U version or something
>implying I'd spend 360 dollars on one game for the Switch version
Also the Switch version still dips semi-frequently unless you play on the small screen.

>>368766182
This. It's not just that we lost enemy's that aren't humanoid, but that most enemies are humanoids that carry weapons for the sake of the lose-a-weapon-gain-a-weapon mechanics with equipment degradation. Like, Re-Deads are humanoids but they aren't in the game cause they don't carry swords and shields. It seems like the non-weapon enemies are in merely for the items they can drop for crafting shit, and they probably couldn't think of unique shit to craft over all the other enemy items for those extra various enemies.

Considering there are about 30 weapons per each weapon type, 40 armor pieces per head/upper/lower, and a gorillion head accessories then i dunno it kinda feels retarded that they couldn't figure more and different item drops for extra enemies if even half of equipment is craftable, so it comes back to the idea that they didn't bring them over simply because the monsters didn't carry weapons.

We lost a lot of traditional classic zelda enemies. But we got Lynels which could be pretty cool - we've never seen one in a 3D zelda.

I'm guessing they haven't sent game shipments to stores yet? There's always a store that sells a game earlier or some employee gets their hand on a copy and eventually leaks it, so I guess they wanted to avoid that considering how desired this game is. I remember quite a few people got Pokémon X and Y early because some stores broke the street date.

>spoilers fucking everywhere
I don't care about people wanting to discuss spoilers, but I feel like we almost need another thread for it. There's gonna be some asshole who's just too lazy to use spoiler tags.

>>368766904
the game is only desired cause Nintendo refused to let on how little content was in the game.

Bill Trennen did an interview with IGN a week or two ago and on the show he was asked "did you feel like you showed too much at E3" and he kinda went a little sad looking and went "ye-" then tried to change the topic.

they showed every single shiekah slate rune magic at E3 - like that was it man, it was those 5. And thanks to the datamine of code flags we can see there isn't a huge variety of monsters and no apparent "traditional items" to speak of, not that anyone shouldn't have missed it by the straight-up lack of any assignable item button on the actual controller.

I'm glad this datamine came out cause I don't plan on getting the game anymore, at least not until it's dirt cheap or second-hand discounted.
They were really going out of their way to hype this up to be some huge zelda game but in reality the only things huge about it are the amount of armor and weapons and the size of hyrule - nothing else really fit the bill.

>>368767156
You're better off just going dark for a few weeks, honestly.

>>368766163
>>368766082
Since there seems to be a lot of confusion: It is *impossible to know* whether "everything" is in there, and that also requires you to have a consistent definition of "everything" etc...

That list was just "the strings in the code binary for the update". Stuff could, or could not be missing from it. No way to know.

Or, for example, here's the complete FST (filesystem) dump for the update: http://pasteguru.com/149654 -- and that's *definitely* not complete, though there's no way to know exactly what's missing.

>>368766904
I have my Switch and BOTW as I mentioned in another thread the other day, someone else I know also got theirs early

So some people definitely have theirs already

>>368767226
I know, but 3 days is just too much time to completely avoid things about this game. I think this is the first time I've been this hyped in at least ten years.

I've already had a few things spoiled for me, but thankfully they seem to be pretty early on. Definitely not endgame twist material.

>>368767225
I can only hope that Nintendo makes up for it with weapons, sidequests and clothes/armor.

The lack of enemy variety and traditional items really has me bummed out to the point where I'm witholding my purchase until a few weeks from now. On the other hand, I'm fine with the amount of Sheikah Slate runes, since they're pretty much the game's equivalent of spells.

>>368767346
you can beat the game in three hours, there is very little content

>>368764321

I saw that interview, and he didn't try to change the topic at all. He said "Initially we thought we might have shown too much of the variety and that people would prefer to discover these features on their own, but we decided that we left enough out for it to still be intriguing, especially since the demo was only in such a small portion of the world."

well, we know the master sword is there, so at least that. You also have the glider, the kokoro leaf, etc. We are missing quite a few, but how can you be sure they are not there? Other items such as power gloves, heavy boots etc, can be there.

@368767974
Not worth a (you) DESU

>>368767597
I think he knew in the back of his mind that they blew their load on the shiekah magic when it was all but described as being the virtual replacement for traditional zelda items aside from the Bow and whatever magic fire rod they showed off.

As we know, magic rods are just swords that can be swung but also shoot magic when swung, and a boomerang is just a curved blade that comes back to you when thrown unlike other weapons that fly one direction when thrown.

It's hard to imagine what other "items" they could have fudged into the weapon layout. Clearly there are hammers in the game, but they're in the Lsword weapon-type and begs the question whether theres any further significant differences built into each individual weapon in a weapontype to say one thing is better at doing a certain action than another thing, or if there will be puzzles that require a hammer.

idk. seems like they did show too much. I was expecting more shiekah magic to be in the final game and got a little down when i saw only the 5 we recognized in the code dump. I'm sure combing every inch of Hyrule will be interesting in itself but, like as far as a "Zelda" game goes i don't feel like its hitting the marks that previous games have.

So apparently you can parry with your shield now by doing a shield bash just at the right moment of an attack. That's pretty awesome.

I heard you can only knock back octorok rocks with a parry. They'll be trickier than usual, then.

>>368767926

Really though I'm just overwhelmed with energy and excitement for this year's most cel-shaded grass cutting simulator.

I wonder if you can see the grass you cut from the top of the Ubisoft™ towers; can you draw a gigantic, interactive penis in the fields of Hyrule only to gaze majestically down from your Creative™ Ubisoft™ meme design upon it and revel in the glory?

This was literally in skyward sword. It probably was in TP too. ever since they got away from directionally angling your shield starting with TP they had to add extra functions to it and ever since TP there's been a shield bash parry thing.

>>368768147

I got news for you, two equally garbage Ubisoft™-meme games don't curbstomp each other.

They're both just garbage.

>>368768209
I mean like the literal boomerang in the game is a sword - a metal sword, with a sharp blade edge, but its curved in the shape of a boomerang and it has a sword hilt. There are probably multiple curved blades that are also "boomerangs" like that one wacky 3 pronged one from the weapon icon leak.

>>368768287
>>368768209

also you use it as a sword. So its a sword, first and foremost, like any other sword, but the thing that makes it special is when you throw it, it comes back to you.

>>368768287
Ah, I see.

>>368768287
Those exist in real life. And boomerangs were hunting weapons used by Australians that more often than not double as melee weapons.

How is that possible when everyone who has played the game for hours and hours says the game is nothing but amazing?

The "datamine" is probably a load of bullshit.

Also what about double handed swords/axes/hammers?

>>368767256
>Waterfall dungeon

AAAAAAAA

>>368768371
my point is of the few traditional zelda items we've seen in "boomerang", "fire rod", "ice rod", and the new electricity rod, they're just swords first and foremost - all the way down to having a sword hilt. They took traditional items and tried to fit them into their "Sword/LSword/Spear/Bow" labels and animation sets. Someone mentioned the Deku Leaf - and that uses the LSword animation set like longswords and hammers.

Because basically everything is part of the degrading weapons mechanic, there probably wont be "hammer" puzzles, or "boomerang" puzzles, or magic puzzles - it's all just fluff and filler and flavor with the real puzzles behind the 5 sole shiekah magics which i'm not even really sure how "cube bombs" are supposed to be so drastically different compared to round bombs - so possibly just 4 types of puzzles built around bombs/timestop/ice/magnet.

it seems lazy or poorly planned or whatever ultimately materializes itself as less opportunity to do things that zelda games are known for.

Boomerangs are in. They come back but you have to press a button to catch them or else they fall and you have to find and pick it up again.

Don't know how many varieties there is though. You pick them up from Lizalfos.

>>368763959

You misunderstand, fellow consumer!

There are no 'shills' on this Mongolian basket-weaving discussion forum. We are all just very hyped for the upcoming blockbuster mega-hit legendary title of the millennia, Zelda: Breath of the Wild!

Let us all make many purchases and blatantly disregard any comparisons to massively similar products such as Ubisoft™ and Horizon™, as these are obviously shills and liars, while we are ourselves innocent and innocuous consumers who are eagerly awaiting the next Nintendo™ Masterpiece™.

I can not wait to climb our brand new invention of map-revealing towers; we like to consider these vertical mini-dungeons™; utilizing the brand new Stamina bar™ and climbing mechanics™.

Did i mention you can cut the grass?

And do you see the mountain in the background?

I had to go through the document sifting and organizing through all the equipment names to get these numbers, and they're probably not even all accurate. There's a Sword_500, but there's no IsGet for it, which means it might be unobtainable through normal gameplay along with the few other items in the 500 range.

Also trying to spread around the news that there are three more 30th anniversary amiibos confirmed in the pastebin.
>Majora's Mask Link
>Twilight Princess Link
>Skyward Sword Link
And Mifaa = Mifur, Riibaru = Rival, Darukeru's the same, and the Gerudo seems to be Uruboza.

>>368768287
Boomerangs can be used as melee weapons. In fact thats not even the first game to do this.

>>368768807
Oh, thanks. I was guessing left because of those dual scimitar-looking sword icons from a few days ago, so I assumed there were left-handed swords, but longswords make more sense.

>>368768882
the pastebin has a lot of errant shit. There is 1 single flag that mentions Hookshot and thats it. For everything else that we know is in the game seen from footage, there are multiple references - almost a redundant amount.

The pastebin refers to Magnesis as MagnetGlove, Stasis as TimeStop, and Cryonis as IceMaker. The naming convention is all over the place, but there is also the presence of a 6th shiekah magic called RemoteBoomerangBomb but isn't referenced again like the others are.

There seems to be deprecated code flags in there. Like I want to believe there is a hookshot, but from the pattern and naming convention and redundancy of everything else, it seems like there is deprecated code and the hookshot might be part of it, like the RemoteBoomerangBomb

>>368768859

Can't wait to watch them all choke on Ubisoft's dick while pretending even to themselves that this game is going to be an incredible masterpiece.

Gag on it, Nintendrones. Ubisoft now owns the design reality for even Zelda. What a world we are becoming.

boomerang bomb doesn't seem to make any sense like i don't see a situation where a bomb arrow wouldn't do what a "boomerang bomb" would, nor do I understand why the bomb would come back to you.

but less about how I think it would work, more about the pastebin itself -
we know the other 5 are in because there are various strings for them

RemoteBombBoomerang and RemoteBombBoomerang2 are the only references for this specific "remote bomb", but the cube and ball versions have extended strings like "isGet_obj_" with a whole slew of other "isGet_obj_" strings for various key items or materials.

I want a hookshot to be there but i dont think there will be and i wont hold my hopes up until theres a screenshot of it in game.

>>368769315
Beamos Static is literally referencing the guardians that can't move, or Guardian_A_Fixed in the pastebin.

Guardians are literally beamos you nigger.

>>368769735
It's something unique and one of his few defining features

>>368769668

I mean the game already has Guardians which are like a bigger Beamos that can chase you down even when you are on a horse, and shoot you from like 200 meters away.

>>368769295

You should definitely look into getting one for the holiday season. At the very least watch their E3 direct. Chances are it's gonna be amazing.

>>368769835
Zelda canonically (and unexplained) has the ability to manipulate time. She sends Link back in time at the end of OoT, for example. She had that whole time-stint in Skyward Sword too. shes a godamn time wizard.

Link is the player character, he is a male.

Zelda is an important NPC in most (but not all) of the games. She is a female.

Canonically speaking, Zelda and Link keep getting reincarnated. Also the main villain Ganon keeps getting reborn or reincarnated or whatever.

There's also like a triple timeline split with games taking place in 4 different timelines.

But really the canon is all bullshit and was all made up after the fact when fans began asking for a consistent story instead of random changes from game to game. The early games had no canon.

Welcome to Zelda, where the canon is made up and consistency of lore between games doesn't matter all that much.

If the Hero's Shade in TP is supposed to OoT Link, then it proves there is no actual reincarnation going on and that every link is his own entirely separate entity with his own life and afterlife.

god i fucking hate everything about twilight princess. this single fucking game, which isn't even very good mind you, implies way too much shit beyond its scope. No reincarnation, ganondorf is saved by the goddesses and favored instead of just being a villain for sake of having a villain, it's just a mess.

That voice acting is horrible. How hard can it be to get an old man to voice an old man?

>>368769835
Most of the Links and Zeldas are different characters.
Link = Spirit of the Hero
Zelda = Spirit of the Goddess Hylia in mortal form
Ganon = Spirit of Demise, the root of evil
They reincarnate whenever Demise reincarnates so as to stop him.

The Link in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask is the same Link
The Link in The Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass is the same Link
The Link in A Link to the Past, Oracle of Seasons, Oracle of Ages, and Link's Awakening is the same Link
The Link in A Link Between Worlds and Tri Force Heroes is the same Link
The Link in The Legend of Zelda and The Adventure of Link is the same Link

The Links in Skyward Sword, The Minish Cap, Four Swords, Four Swords Adventures, Twilight Princess, and Spirit Tracks are all different incarnations of Link.

The Ganon(dorf) in Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess and A Link to the Past/Oracle of Seasons/Ages/A Link Between Worlds/The Legend of Zelda/The Adventure of Link are all the same Ganon(dorf), but Ocarian of Time splits the timeline three ways.
The Ganon(dorf) in Four Swords Adventures is a reincarnation after Ganon(dorf) is killed in Twilight Princess.

>>368771043
Why would they ever do that? They're not gonna be selling many more 3DSs, they want to sell Switches, especially to current 3DS owners. And a successor would defeat the whole purpose of the Switch.

>>368771094

So zero gameplay, zero content, just a big empty open world with bland, shallow combat and awful graphics?

>>368771117
>paltry launch lineup
Launch never matters. And the lineup is not paltry to many people who don't own a Wii U, and those who do are hardcore Nintendo fans who would buy the switch anyway

>>368771172
They have to make a 3DS successor, the 3DS could barely handle sun/moon and Game Freak/TPC don't want mainline Pokemon on the switch because of it being marketed as a home console, while nips want to develop for low budget handhelds because it's cheaper.

>>368771186

>>368771287
They already did make a 3DS successor.

>>368771145
>>368771172
Nintendo says a lot of things they go back on. They consider the switch to be a console, not a handheld. Their handhelds do far better than their consoles. Also, a lot of developers, such as gamefreak, are unwilling to make games for consoles compared to how cheap and easy it is to create games for handhelds. They're not just going to suddenly pump out a console version of pokemon.

>>368763959
Ready for what? To not buy it? Yes.

>>368771373

There are at least six spells, three things that would be considered items acquired in a dungeon are now standard weapons, and someone datamined a hookshot. If I had to take a guess though the hookshot might be more like a grappling hook this time.

>>368771208
Just switch regions on your account. It's region free

>>368771373
Make them physics based and less linear, and focus on experimentation. And there are items, like boomerangs, Korok leaves and such. Switches and levers can also remain

>>368771408
No they didn't, the 3DS was appealing as an inexpensive platform for lower budget games (all of the RPGs the system has) or games primarily surviving on recycled assets (Monster Hunter), the Switch isn't.

>>368771438
Did you miss the part where they announced how ridiculously cheap the Switch devkits are? Or how they're getting support from every indie ever? Or how every dev ever has stated that programming for the thing is piss easy?
Making games for the Switch is already cheap and easy, dude.

>>368771535
Why is it not? The devkits are cheap as hell, and many 3DS games look passable upscaled, given that they ported a shitty looking version of dragon quest heroes this proves they don't care about graphics. And I don't even know why apparently you can't recycle models on consoles

>>368771590
magic bomb
magic cube bomb

and then the deprecated magic boomerang bomb which by any reason actually probably isn't an acquirable spell.

there are 5

>>368771535
>>368771620
They won't do a Switch mini, but they'll certainly make a handheld only Switch, without the straps, the grip, the dock nor the cables for like 50 bucks less. It's only a matter of time.

>>368771590
I guess he counted the two bombs and bomb boomerang thing. Does fire, ice and thunder rods count? I don't see why they shouldn't

>>368768976

So mad that your bullshit got called.

>>368771192
That's the thing, it matters to people who aren't fans of the company developing that hardware. Nobody buys a system just to have it, they buy it for the games. Announcing a new system with only a handful of games would only hype the diehard fans while falling flat with everyone else.
Think about why they showed off Mario already, even though it's coming out at the very end of the year. They could've easily held that back for E3, but they wanted to build up as much momentum into the launch as possible.

draugr is all I need to sum this game up

The Switch has vita ports and the Wii U had 3DS ports, they could continue making MH on the Switch at 1080p/60fps and better environment textures but overall roughly the same level of graphical fidelity and it'd sell just fine.

>>368771556
Aside from the price of the devkit, they said the exact same things for the Wii U iirc

Honestly people going "there's no item variety!" or "there won't be any puzzles using x!" are still stuck on the idea that the game needs to fit into the old conventions. This isn't a case where Special Item is the only thing that can hit X obstacle or flip X switch. You're give an arsenal with a lot of unique uses and applications that can use the game's physics in different ways, and an arsenal that forces you to change things up almost constantly. That's far more interesting than Boomerang Dungeon and Hookshot Dungeon.

You're mistaking the existence of familiar things for worthwhile content. The old fucking Boomerang was never useful outside of situations where were specially designed to use the boomerang. Then you put it away forever.

People also overlook how much shit the old games reused across different enemy types. A Gerudo in OoT is just a Stalfos. A Deku Scrub is just an Octorok as a plant. Guays are keese outside of caves. Gibdos and Redeads are basically the same fucking thing.

Is the enemy variety as bad as it seems?

>>368771841

You clearly don't. The Wii U was using obsolete architecture and it wasn't compatible with any engines at the time.

>>368770136
Looks like most of the staple minigames are back, that's nice

>>368771841
No the didn't. The Wii U was incredibly difficult to develop for, with a custom build for chips and other hardware, and a system architecture that only Nintendo seemed to fully understands. Indies only has a easy time with it cuz Nintendo made it support stuff like Unity; for everyone else it was very difficult to implement.

you're mistaking zelda games for who knows what.

when you got an item, you used in the dungeon, but then you also used it in the overworld to get to new places to get access to other stuff.

And you really are being some type of fucking nintendroneforce nigger to defend the lack of enemy types and I don't think you deserve a kind response for that particular facetious paragraph.

>>368772018
They haven't said anything yet, AFAIK. There's a day one patch for the system, and none of the units they had on display anywhere had that problem, so it's likely a problem with the OS or the firmware on the retail version.

>>368767432
>The WiiU version is in short supply
fuck, I never thought I'd say this about a WiiU game but I'm afraid it will sell out if it don't get it as soon as possible.
I was planning on getting it the week after because I've got important shit I can't afford to slack on next week but it looks like I'll just have to buy it release day and lock it away until the week is over.

>>368772018

Nintendo hasn't said anything. However, this isn't something like the the RROD wher eMicrosoft got greedy with the manufacturing which caused problems months/years down the line. The bluetooth issue is immediately visible, which means Nintendo 100% caught it in their stress tests.

Either they got greedy with the battery, or there's a glitch that's causing it to stay in low-power mode even after disconnecting from the tablet. In any case, a quick firmware update will fix it.

>>368771791

The Switch already is mini. Have you seen the size of it?

They will probably do a handheld-only version minus the dock though.

why doesn't he have the hat

>>368771563
Cheaper and easier to develop for handhelds than consoles. Why put in the time, effort, and resources when you can churn out simpler games that print money?

https://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2016/12/16/game-freak-may-wait-and-see-with-the-nintendo-switch-before-releasing-a-new-pokemon-game-on-it/#181fe3921d55

Not an outright refusal, but there is a wait and see approach.
If Nintendo does continue their handheld line, which I'm sure they will, that's where pokemon will be. If they were to make a console version of pokemon, that'll be the standard moving forward and what fans will come to expect. I think they fear that endeavor would endanger all that money they roll around in churning out the handheld games.

Who says you have to waste money like that? Look at Octopath Traveller. People are excited for that and it's basically an indie game.

It's weird that they haven't said anything about it yet because i assume there's quite a few people like me who are hesitating to buy because of this.

Why do you faggots want to be spoiled so desperately? It's like reading an walkthrough before your first run.

>>368772103

Nothing I said about enemies is incorrect though.

You'd use items in the overworld maybe but they weren't what I'd call intuitive. It was basically "obstacle can only be overcome with X". It's not about the challenge then, it's about find the one "key item" that's arbitrarily gatekeeping you.

In BOTW you can solve puzzles with creativity which is more rewarding. Do you use the sail cloth to glide across a chasm and then climb? Do you make a tree bridge? Do you find a nearby river and use Cryonis to make stepping stones? Or maybe you can rig a see saw to catapult you up over it.

That's a hell of a lot more rewarding than "use the key item here cuz nothing else will work."

Switch Minier.

>>368772371
Maybe they're trying to sweep it under the rug. Launch day is pretty damn close anyway, so if the update fixes it, they don't even have any reason to acknowledge there was ever any problem at all.

>>368772339
there are 4 weapon types in BotW shitter, and /most/ enemies carry one of them as armed mooks.

it's literally Dark Souls 2 creatively bankrupt enemy design.

maybe if Nintendo employees actually played non-nintendo games they'd be able to keep up with fads if not see which ideas don't work.

So for people who have read the pastebins and such, how big is the enemy variety? I think if there was only Goblins and Skeletons in the overworld besides world bosses that would completely kill the game for me.

>>368772643
There's 3-4 enemy types besides bosses, that's it.

Well, that's the thing. Nowadays they're comparing it with everything else.

>>368772594
sword, axe, hammer, spear, bow, boomerang
In fact, I can't actually think of any games at the moment with more weapon variety. I'm sure they exist though.

>>368772308

Nintendo co-owns Pokemon with Gamefreak. So all Pokemon games have to be on Nintendo hardware (or phones with Nintendo's approval).

The last Pokemon games struggled to run on the 3DS, which is now outdated 6 years old.

If Nintendo doesn't release a new dedicated handheld (let's be real, the Switch is just a powerful handheld with HDMI-out) then it basically forces GameFreak to develop main series Pokemon games for Switch.

>>368772664
The patch file dump is incomplete fyi

>>368772730
You got trolled, son.

>>368772674

Those are all indie devs. I explained why that was met with better acceptance by devs. It's bigger titles and more ambitious games that made development or ports more difficult

yes but beamos can only be stop with bombs. and their laser is a 24/7 hunt you down. not shot on intervals.

>>368772768
Nintendo just needs to approve of the game being made because Nintendo is a major share holde of the IP since they also own the Pokemon company. Nintendo as a company owns 1/3rd of it, Gamefreak owns 1/3rd of it and Pokemon company owns 1/3rd of it. However Nintendo basically owns the Pokemon Company. They created it to handle the IP so they indirectly own 2/3rd of the IP.

Nothing gets done without Nintendo's approval.

>>368772730

Don't worry, he's lying. We've literally seen more than that just in preview videos.

Just off the top of my head:

Bokoblins. Moblins. Stalfos. Lizalfos. Chu chus. Guardians. Keese.

>>368772790
You got trolled, idiot

>>368772928
And you forgot the bows, with all their different arrows, the rods and the bombs.

>>368772983
>pretending to be retarded

>>368772942
And you think there will be any new enemies outside of the previews?
The previews are what sells the game, anything past that point is going to be half assed as hell.

>>368772643
goblins, lizalfos, giants, rock golems, keese, assassins, chuchus, guardians, miniguardians, wizzrobes, dragons, sandworm, and then like 30 background animals that aren't really enemies but you can kill them i guess.

all of these have reskin variations with mayber stronger attacks/better weapons/different abilities, but there is an overall pretty small amount of separate types of enemies that doesn't really compare to previous zelda games.

like, for the "biggest zelda we've ever made" you'd think it'd have as many canonically sensible enemies as possible from virtually ever zelda game in history, but really its only got like 10 old ones and a couple new ones.

>>368773003
You can also use sticks and stones, and literally bones.

>>368773059
True that. And even motherfucking tree leaves too.

>>368772964

Shitposter-kun s are on maximun damage control

>>368772928
hammers, claymore, club, axe use the Lsword animation set

swords, sythe, boomerangs, magic rods use the Sword animation set

spear and various sticks use the spear animation set

and then there are bows

there are only 4 weapon types mang.

With bigger studios it won't matter how easy it is to develop for if the sales aren't there. A year is a long investment to make if the returns aren't guaranteed.

>>368773046
oh and Lynels. Lynels have never been in a 3D zelda game so that might be cool.

>>368763959
Not gonna get it but atleast it's better than Horizon.

Might pirate it if the Wii U version is good.

Who /cancelledpreorder/ here?
Thanks for saving me a bunch of money

>>368773046
You missed some

Lynels
Beamos
Wolves
Bears
Hawks

Apparently there are wolfos and dinolfos, but they are under variants, so who knows what else might be under variants

>>368773046

As I pointed out earlier older Zelda games would take general types of enemies and recycle their patterns and attacks to similar creatures. Look at an Octorok and a Deku Scrub - they're basically the same thing.

The 2D games are absolutely rife with this. How many humanoid soldier enemies are in Link to the Past? It's ridiculous

>>368773043

You think there won't?

Everything we know indicates this game is quality. Even the shittest Zelda games had lots of enemies and were decent games. This game looks great.

Fuck the marketing for the game claims enemy variety as a selling point.

Oh here's some more I forgot that we've seen: Swiss Army Knife Guardian, Mini-Guardian, Evil Sheika guy with giant Sword, Steppe Talus, Giant cyclops bokoblin.

Not to mention all the animals in the open world that you can hunt, ride etc.

>>368773161
Literally what. Their animations are different. Hammers have a sense of weight to their blows, as do claymores.

I feel like I'm getting trolled

>>368773323
>believing in marketing material
good goy

>>368773323

Oh and Octoroks.

>>368773210
That is wrong. The official translation says less than a year, and there are no specifics on manpower and time per day

>>368773220
And you can mount them apparently

>>368773161
Weapon speeds differ between the type so they're not just different models doing the same job. Also axes can also chop wood and boomerangs return when thrown.

>>368773138

Never said I believed they were going to do anything about it, just that they're not compltely ignoring the issue. It's been acknowledged.

>>368773257
wolves bears and hawks aren't enemies, they're animals.

I'll be fucked the day that the Zelda franchise has to consider normal-ass-fucking-wildlife as "enemies". This series has always been about mean or scary creatures as enemies, not a literal goat eating some grass minding his own business.

>>368773263
nigger the standards of a game that came out in 1994 are not fucking okay in a game for 2017.

>it's like AlttP
is not an argument.

>>368773161

That doesn't mean they have the same properties. Hammers will not only shake the ground when you do a drop attack from above, they'll stun enemies. A sword drop will just do damage. A club and a stick can both catch fire. Fire property weapons can light grass on fire and create an updraft.

They have broadly similar concepts and share animations but how they play gives way to diverse options.

>>368773407
Fair enough, I can't comment on the validity of that.

>reviews come out ONE DAY before release

always a bad sign

its NMS all over again

>>368773369

>Believing things with no evidence

Stupid girl.

>>368773417
>wolves
>not an enemy in TP
>they're not two legged also it doesn't count

They also said bears attack you btw. Hawks also attacked you in TP

>>368773329
you're not getting trolled. There are 4 animation sets and the various weapons are under them.

Sword
Longsword
Spear
Bow

thats it.

Hammers have the same animation set as axes, is the same animation set as longswords.

>>368773417
I'm hoping a bear or wolf could be formidable enemies regardless and not just something Link slaughters to cook

>>368773472
What. That's quite some stretching here

>>368773472
blame Horizon and that the game is huge

>>368773472
NMS looked like shit for a long time though. Everyone was saying "wide as an ocean with the depth of a puddle" all the way until release. The same was said about Zelda at first until it was revealed there are actual dungens, puzzles, towns, minigames, etc. No redeeming factors showed up as the release of NMS approached and feature guaranteed by that shitty developer were not in the game at all, while more features than Nintendo has ever mentioned keep showing up for Zelda.

>>368773534
That's wrong, you fucking retard. The animation on hitting the enemy is different. Even if you use that retarded metric you still have boomerangs and bows.

>>368773663
>>368773534
>bows
Bombs*

>>368773663
boomerangs are swords.

they're literally a metal blade sword that uses the normal sword animation set for attacks, but the blade is curved, and when you throw it it comes back instead of continuing to travel in the thrown direction like every other thrown weapon.

and Bows are a weapon type i dunno can you just not read or something?

>>368773463

That's not what I'm saying. You're the one who basing them on a standard that "the old games had variety", when... there really isn't. Tell me, what the hell is a difference between a keese and a guay that isn't purely visual?

BOTW focuses on quality over quantity. Bokoblins have diverse behavior that can vary both on location, time of day, the weapons they're carrying, and environment. They're more alive and individualized, and you won't encounter them fighting you the same way each time. Keese can attack as individuals or in swarms. That's a fundamentally better approach than cramming in a bunch of enemies for the sake of having them.

>>368773663
Not them, but boomerangs are literally swords that simply fly back to you once thrown

>>368773737
what about bombs? Bombs are your shiekah slate magic. Or bomb arrows for your bow - thats it. there aren't other bombs.

>>368773769
>>368773805
The boomerang's ability to come back is the main fucking point of it, it instantly puts it in a different weapon type.

>>368772768
The current pokemon models are already HD, the only thing that is keeping gamefreak from doing a mainline pokemon game is simply the tradition of pokemon games, the tradition being that you need to be able to physically trade your pokemons with other people. GF already stated in an interview they are waiting to see how the switch handles portability and if its decent enough to fit into their physical trading tradition.

>>368773769
>curves back
It spins too

How is it not a different animation?

Also read again, I said bombs. Scythe and sword also have different lengths and reaches, as do claymore and hammer

>>368773869
They're talking about animation sets bro. You could also bring up rods and it still wouldn't invalidate what they're saying.

>>368773828
Yep? Are bombs not a weapon type now?

>>368773769

the animation isn't the bee all end all of weapon diversity you idjut. That hammer has different properties from a zweihander. It hits harder but also slower. The drop attack has a stun. This stuff is important and you're ignoring it.

Positive reviews are the number 1 indicator that a game is shit.
