I noticed that the only villain we've seen so far in BotW is Calamity Ganon, who is just an ominous ball of darkness hovering around in the distance. Are we going to have a character who shows up periodically to threaten Link? I know everyone has mixed feelings on Ghirahim and Zant, but having a continuous presence throughout the game helps sell the whole sense of doom. And this time it wouldn't even have to be a "haha there was a different big bad THE WHOLE TIME" asspull since we already know about Calamity Ganon. But he's gotta have a few minions besides random monsters, right?

I noticed during the trailer that not only does Calamity Ganon shift to look like the Pig Wizard from ALttP, Zelda 1/2 and so forth, but also into a feral boar form ala TP.

Is Calamity Ganon basically every timeline's Ganon fused together into just one massive Super Pig of Darkness that is threatening everything?

Thirsty bastards, the lot of you.

Anyway, one can't help but notice that they went out of their way to make Link into premium grade fan girl bait. And the Gerudo are in this game. And you can travel to their town. Yeah.

The real question is how subtle the gag will be when it inevitably comes up, on a scale of 1-10. 1 being it's only vaguely implied, 10 being every citizen openly running a train on him in the street.

I kind of want to replay WW through its HD version, and TP, but I fear I'll get a Zelda overload by the time BotW comes out, which will make me dislike the game.

Thus, I won't play any Zelda. I want it to be like a 5-years-wait experience. It feels the best.

So before I finish up, is there anything from the trailer that you want in webm that isn't above?

>>165612726

My pants will be utterly ruined if this game has a party system. I always thought that was one of the main things this franchise could do to innovate a little. Wolf Link already shows that there's partner AI.

We honestly can't figure it out, as there's evidence and references to all 3 timelines including pre-timeline events such as OoT and SS.

Some people are theorizing that Calamity Ganon warped reality to such an extent that the timelines are collapsing into each-other, reforming into one again.

Most of the scenes involving Zelda seem to take place in the past, so she'll be the companion for the flashback events.

In the future, she'll proably provide tips and hints through the Sheikah slate but that's about it.

>that the timelines are collapsing into each-other, reforming into one again.
That really isn't how time works.
There are an infinite number of timelines for an endless number of possibilities. The Legend of Zelda series has only shown three such timeline possibilities from a single branching point.
If time was collapsing on itself, why would only three branches be combined?

I thought this too, but if you listen closely to her voice she has a slight accent similar to the "open your eyes" .

>>165614769
It's probably Fi.

>>165605460
So the game's four dungeons are four guardians, and the center is calamity ganon, who is also a rogue guardian. Is that why Old Man Ganondorf is helping us? Did he lose control of the Calamity Guardian?

>>165614195
Probably rocky appendages or something, some of the Gorons in TP had stuff like that as well

Eh? I fucking love MM, it's just that this franchise has a history of letting me down a lot. For how popular and high selling it is, frankly I expect more from it. Majora's Mask I feel was a step in the right direction, but even that suffered from being made quickly and on the cheap, with some janky puzzles, questionable dungeon design, and obtuse progression.

That's why I don't want to give in to the hype, cause even the good games feel slightly disappointing. And that BotW seems to be emulating some of my favorites in the series, only makes me more hesitant to want it.

Well, switch still has environmental pop-in.

Informs us that they're companions fighting for the same cause as Link.

>the races came to have their "heroes" to protect them over the years
>100 years later, these are the new heroes
>they where blue to honor the Link who fought but died valiantly 100 years ago as a form of tradition and to signify thier status as a hero. Think of the coming of age garments that Link had to wear in WW as a means to honor the Hero of Time; something like that.

>>165619978
Ganondorf was called an incarnation of Demise's hatred so I don't think he would try to escape his destiny so much as he would be bound by it.
But I would like to see a game where we get a picture into his previous life before he attack Hyrule. That's why I liked his speech in Wind Waker so much

I wonder if we'll ever see Fi in a mainline Zelda game again. She's the only past Zelda character that has even a slim chance of showing up again, since most other characters are mortal and the games usually take place hundreds of years apart. MAYBE Ghirahim, assuming he didn't die at the end of SS.

Just as long as she never becomes a companion again, I wouldn't mind.

>>165626985
I like to think Midna is ageless.

Also, many mortal character recur in Zelda. It's kinda the series' thing.

>>165626985
Ghirahim was Demise's sword though so with him dead Ghirahim would never come back.
Fi I think will be referrenced rather than coming back, support characters never seem to occur a second time.

I think Midna would appear in the same way Skull kid did. Or TPs Tingle, BotW Linebeck etc. It's a "new character?" with new design but same soul and idea.

>>165627318
>Also, many mortal character recur in Zelda. It's kinda the series' thing.
Aside from the main 3, the only ones who show up multiple times are joke characters like Tingle and expies like Malon.

>>165635828
There's no point. Might as well just start fresh with a new character, it'd be easier.

>>165635965
Skyword Sword needs a full remake years down the road. That game had so much wasted potential.

>>165627558
Demise being gone sure as hell didn't stop Ghirahim the first time. He probably wouldn't try to ressurrect him again but he might go in search of the next best thing, Ganon.

>>165636270
They didn't do things like let you unfreeze Zora's Domain in Ocarina
They didn't put in the cut dungeons in Windwaker

If there's a rerelease, it's going to be what we already got, MAYBE with a sock shoved into Fi's mouth but that's about it

>>165636237
The point is that she is technically relevant due to her connection to master sword, Hylia and Link, and her status as 'ancient technological marvel'. Master Sword will always include an elephant in the room until they fix her.

>>165636441
Adding cut content back into a game is not the same thing as compeletely overhauling it and making it again from the ground-up. They could keep the same basic plot and characters (which was the best part about it), change the shitty motion-control gameplay, improve the graphics, cut the padding nonsense, and add more content to the world below Skyloft. There should have been at least one or two struggling tribes/hidden villages for Link to find. Impa had to have come from somewhere.

Also, give Fi some real development and expand upon Ghirahim. It was a waste to introduce an anti-Master Sword and then do nothing with it. He and Fi didn't even interact.

>>165636751
Adding originally cut content was the only things we could have expected

It was that or nothing. We got nothing

>>165636751

The front view makes it seem that the nose will at least be fairly triangular, if not necessarily the ridiculous beaks of OoT.

Wait a minute, that Fi...

Yes?

I swear she wasn't in that cover art before but I probably only didn't spot her before.

>>165651887
Ah I see. No worries, I put her there. An anon requested that I make some new pictures, so I did just that.

Just when I thought the EU cover couldn't get any worse.

>>165652040
Rude.

Minish Cap > Everything

Can we end this "US cover is better" meme?
I know you americans are used to the fugly golden covers, so this one looks like a novelty, but the EU one is way better.
Inb4 "muh selfie", not an argument.

Minish cap is the best Capcom Zelda game, the second best handheld Zelda game (First one is Link's Awakening DX) and one of the best 2D Zelda games overall.

The US one this time around doesn't have a gold filter though. It genuinely looks better. Usually I'd agree, the US gets dogshit ugly covers majority of the time. But this is one of the very rare cases where they didn't.

US cover:
>Epic full body shot of the protagonist from behind like Bloodborne with brown and dark colors for more mature epicness, static as fuck cover
EU cover:
>Colorful cover that represent the actual look of the game with an original and unusual camera angle, birds flying that gave more action to the cover and the protagonist looking towards us like saying "let's go to adventure, my friend"

US cover:
>for strong males, dawn is rising as the hero sets out on his dangerous journey, sword at the ready to strike down any foe
EU cover:
>for nu-male faggots, bright gay colours, leaning on his sword like a cock, beckoning for you to come fuck his boipussy
