But yes, that DLC thing has defiantly lessened the hype. If word of mouth around the 3rd of March is negative, might drop it. Just to be sure.

So, whilst /v/ anons lurking are having an autistic meltdown over this announcement, only about 400 hours to go. If anything, we have plenty of other things to go autistic and think about besides the DLC, so let's do that instead of burning ourselves out because EA and Activision went full retard over using and selling DLC years ago.

Before shitposting or answering to shitposters from /v/, consider these things:
>Nintendo doing DLCs is nothing new. They started doing it at least 4 or 5 years ago, shitposters will try to act surprised like Nintendo never did this before
>DLCs aren't always bad. In the past there have been instances of DLCs that offered new content without cutting away the content that's already in the game. Not all companies are called Capcom and Nintendo sure aren't like them
>People that want to play the game won't say they don't want to buy the game anymore. It's a shitposting lie to make you doubt your decisions. Stay sharp.
>It's ok to be disappointed but it's not a reason to start sperging like a 12 years old kid. All developers do this kind of stuff, nobody complained about The Witcher 3's DLCs, nobody complained about other companies' DLCs, shitposters are purposely targeting Nintendo only

Ah, this is enlightening.

"A new hard mode"

Looks like a challenge mode of some kind, not an actual gating of the harder modes.

How to fix the DLC:

>announce it AFTER release
>no p2w items
>you can buy content packs individually

Then I would be fine with it. But they presented it in the worst way possible. And yes I understand other companies do it, that's the whole goddamn problem.

Zelda leak when?

>>168312786
Hard mode is probably already in the game. They are talking about an even harder mode.

Why does everyone get so upset when Nintendo does these things? They're a company just like all the rest and DLC is a practice that has been proven to work (especially considering they've already sold DLC in the past). I see so much of a fuss when Nintendo does things like this or paid online but everyone has fallen complacent with the other companies ripping them off. I say all or none if you don't like it.

Hard mode DLC is the only thing that's dumb about this. Everything else just sounds like fluff except for the new story and dungeon which I feel like can be sold justifiably in this day and age.

They have this distorted vision of Nintendo as a company that does everything like they used to do it twenty years ago.

In all seriousness though, the DLC does look bland as hell, play the game a bit before you decide to buy it, the beauty of DLC is that it is OPTIONAL

why? the dlc is barely any content

>>168314382

There is literaly no reason to buy this DLC before 100% the game. All you have to do is not tempt yourself by watching videos of the content


>>168314594

A lot of people say Hyrule Castle will be a dungeon itself

>>168314459
I think it's too soon to judge.
The Season pass is like, what, twenty buck. Twenty bucks of DLC equals to a lot of content to me.
The Mario Kart 8 season pass was twelve bucks if I recall correctly and it gave you a whole lot of new stuff, like tracks and characters.

Since this is a game made by EAD too, the comparison is not stupid.

>>168312917

I'm not really that upset I'm just disappointed that once more, a company can't get to the level of CDPR in matters of DLC

Because it's Nintendo. I guess deep down we had always hoped they'd stay away from modern gaming practices. Seeing them head down the same path as the others just gives you a little kick in the nuts.

>>168315441
Sounds a bit extreme.
Then again I've never minded spoilers so maybe I should'nt talk on that

The new map feature could be increasing the number of pins you can place. At the moment it's 100, it's too low a number considering the size of the world.

>>168316021
Maybe they could add a village or two?

>>168316086
I have a pipe-dream of it being a Witcher 3 style DLC (new area, new quests, new side-story). Would be lovely, though likely not happening.

>>168316021

Let's say you mark a Guardian/enemy camp/some chests/a cooking area why would you leave those things for the entire game. At some point you'll come back and open the chest, beat the enemy or find another closer cooking area

>>168316227
Never say never. Aonuma said he was taking ispiration from western games and maybe The Witcher was exactly one of those games.

>>168316021
I think its going to be pre-placed elements/radar telling you where to look for things

>>168316251
I don't know what elements will be marked on the map by default, but I'd like to keep every permanent site marked just in case (cooking sites, enemy camps [assuming they respawn]). You never know if you're going to be going to that area in particular a second time.

By map feature do they mean game map functionality or do they mean overworld map location

This is the crucial distinction.

If Nintendo has cut features then there's really no other option then to drop the game.

>>168316617
How can you tell if it's cut or not? Cut content implies it was once in the game and then removed. These things usually leave some hints in the game files. If nobody finds those kind of files, then there's no cut content.

>>168316617
lol

>>168316726
I would say that if its actually important cut content, then it should tell during a playthrough.

JUST PLAY THE FUCKING GAME AND IGNORE THE CRAP DLC

>>168317107
I'm not forking over my dosh if it turns out Nintendo is charging twice for a standard experience. There's a difference between DLC which adds and DLC which was obviously a part of the game which was cut to then be resold.

Hence why Nintendo announcing DLC before launch is sneaky bullshit. I'm perfectly fine with just ignoring the DLC, but if its cut content I don't want to play an incomplete game.

>>168317107
How can you IGNORE such a thing, my dear anonymous friend?
Oh my, oh my, its sole existance drives my thoughts up the big wall of life. How can I, me, myself, right here, accept something that clearly indicates that the end of the world is near? It's the noble principle that bothers me, not the lack of money.
The society collapses. All humans become animals. Nintendo sells DLC.
What a terrible fate we met, didn't we?

>>168317245
I can't even imagine what map feature they could have cut out that'd make the game 'incomplete'.

Didn't they cut content in the latest Deus Ex because they wanted it to be a trilogy or something?

One thing, do the other two giant mechas (aside from te Lizard and the bird) actually move?

>>168318004
I guess so? Unless one of them has been "injuried" for some reason we still don't know.

Drama aside, in console gaming, shifting from finalized to DLC supported designs also carriers a shift in the paradigm of what games are. Like many others, games are both commercial products and pieces of art. DLCs shift the balance from art piece to commerical products. DLCs do not break up the one-way development direction, but split up the versions of a game a player can experience. It's kind of the reverse of modding.

>>168318090
video games have always been developed as commercial products. r u dum

>>168318090
I think a standalone DLC can be, sometimes, more of a piece of art than the game itself.
Burial at sea comes to mind.

>>168317637
pfffffffffffft, a crossover beat em up is no where near the same level as a 3-d zelda launch title

>>168317857
Sort of, I think the plan was to make it episodic leading off from the end of the second game? I don't know, I never played it.

Didn't fire emblem also have paid dlc? I don't really think it's that big of a deal

What would make the new hard mode actually worth it to you?

If they made healing gradual instead of instant and added stamina costs to attacks (both of these in addition to regular hero mode of course) then I'd be happy with it.

>>168316227

going to koholint or termina or fuck even ordona province or whatever and a new part of the map opens. fuck that would be cool.

Because they aren't criticizing, they are complaining for something that already happened a dozen of times.

>>168318376

the game already looks hard but for me a proper hard mode would have the game be unpausable for inventory and food. you can still pause if you need to leave the game but if you want to eat or change weapon the game keeps going in the background and if you get hit you get hit

To make it impossible then they should lock you to the health, stamina and cooldown timers you start with

>>168318635
>literally say they are gating off Hard mode with DLC
>JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS

Yeah couldn't see how that could happen

>>168318376
For me, any kind of hard mode is the least insteresting thing. Call me casual, but I usually play Zelda games in regular difficulty and never bother with Hero mode.
Plus, BotW seems to be already hard, so, yeah, no thanks. I'll take the DLC for all other plus content though.

>>168318172
So a painting that has been produced as a commission cannot be a piece of art as well? What do you think defines art? But you were trolling, right? Did I fall for it?

I could argue that standalone DLC is actually a new game, since it's standalone. The term DLC is somewhat deceptive in that context.

The DLC is pretty lackluster by the looks of it, but you aren't wrong at all

-It's not cut content, almost all DLC is developed AFTER the game is finished, as something for the dev team to do while the game is beta tested, packaged, shipped and released

-it isn't hard mode or hero mode behind a paywall. it is a DIFFERENT hard mode/challenge mode in ADDITION to the standard hard/hero mode

>>168314781
>exclusive in-game clothing is a Nintendo Switch branded T-Shirt
>new Hard mode
>new Story and a new Dungeon
>only $20

damn they hit a home run with the MK8 DLC and they've got a really good grasp of an appropriate price to content ratio is. obviously i'd love all this stuff to be in the game from the get-go, but these might be some of the corners they had to cut in order to make it a launch title

I'm quitting nintendo after this announcement, I could stomach 3 fucking delays, I could stomach paid online, I could stomach another gimmick console, but tainting zelda with cut content day one hard mode dlc and using the fucking "expansion" buzzword like sony to sweeten the pill is the last fucking straw, fuck you nintendo.

>>168318813
>I could argue that standalone DLC is actually a new game, since it's standalone. The term DLC is somewhat deceptive in that context.
That's a bit of a stretch. Even if it is standalone, it is still a piece of DLC of a specific game, like Plague of Shadows in Shovel Knight.

>>168318949
>cut content
Woah there, wait an see if its ACTUAL cut content.

The worth thing this announcement has probably done is made the hype between now and the 3rd fucking dead, its going to be DLC talk 24/7 now

>>168318813
>I could argue that standalone DLC is actually a new game, since it's standalone.
Not really, since you usually need the base game to be able to play it.

>>168318949
>cut content
>3 delays

They should have turned this new content into the next zelda game desu

MM was basically a lot of cut content from OoT plus new content. TP had cut content from WW.

They could have easily given us an entirely new game, but instead chose to give us cut content in the same game behind a paywall.

That quest is probably 1 hour long at best, and they are also paywalling hard mode.

Fuck nintendo right?

>>168318897
I mean, we can't really judge it yet. When they write "a new story" it could mean everything, even a ten hours long campaign. We can't really say if it is lackuster or not just by an infographic.
>>168318949
Wew, look at this fine piece of criticism.

>>168318813
what are you talking abou baby boy. video games can be considered art, sure, don't care about arguing that. I just said they've always been developed as a product to be sold. dlc doesn't change that.

>>168318732
>>168318742
A combination of these sounds good and very doable. Since it's coming later in the year I'm 99 percent sure it's not just a regular hero mode, so if they add any of these in it could be worth it

Guys, guys, if you want to gather a lot of answers, you definitely choose the wrong thread.

>I don't see a reason for it yet, but I'll probably get one
i'm planning on playing this game hard. like, multi-day marathons. even the joycon charging controller still limits me to the joycons, whereas having the pro (which is cheaper than a 2nd set of joycons) will mean that i've always got something charged up for quick swaps. also the pro just looks like the comfiest controller i've ever seen

>>168319217
No, girl, you were implying that I ignored the commercial factor, which raised your question if I'm dumb. Even though I paid attention to be specific and clear in my post that both art and commerce have their share in a game product. Obviously there is no value without a price tag. But introducing DLC clearly sends a message. Either you get less than 100% of a product, or your game isn't even meant to be a finished product. It's less art, but more of a game experience service.

>>168319151
>usually need the base game
According to my google search, this is not considered standalone DLC.

>>168319042
I'm not familiar with these games, but what makes DLC standalone is its ability to be played without the base game, right? Why would you call it standalone if it isn't standalone?

So, essentially, it's content that may borrow some or many assets like the engine from the base game, but is designed to run on its own with its own story and (maybe) new gameplay elements. As a tradeoff, it's not priced as a full game since it is built upon large chunks of a finished product.

>>168320347
Oh yeah, I hate how it looks as well

>>168320085

If I buy the Wii U version and the DLC it's still cheaper than simply buying the Switch game. Let's not even talk about buying the system as well

I think the Joy-con is pretty small honestly. It'd be alright for something like Mario Kart, but for other games you want something you can feel in your hands.

You can't find the special addition? Huh that's odd, Amazon stocked loads of them.

>>168320418
>But introducing DLC clearly sends a message. Either you get less than 100% of a product, or your game isn't even meant to be a finished product
i think this is a stretch. "they gave us one DLC dungeon so that means they never want us to have a full game and perpetually sell us dungeons" is a real slippery slope that i don't necessarily buy, but also the idea that said DLC dungeon is cut content/we didn't get 100% of a game seems flawed as well. sm4sh began with an end in mind. they released a full game, everyone loved it, and then they said "we have these specific characters and slots planned to release future DLC in (which we haven't started working on yet), but once we fill those predetermined slots, we're done"

>>168321080

the shitstorm would make this one look like a joke if that happened

This is a nice opportunity to bring more people who don't know about the general, the shitpost will only last some threads then the good posters will remain here

>>168320418
>Either you get less than 100% of a product, or your game isn't even meant to be a finished product.
That's a very distorted way to look at DLC. I get it, companies like EA, Squareenix and Capcom abused them in very cancerous ways. But that doesn't mean all DLCs are equally bad. Even if a DLC is not standalone, it can bring more things to the table.
MK8 was a complete game when it released, and it got a very positive reception. Then the DLCs arrived. But that doesn't mean the game was incomplete nor it means the game itself was somewhat less worth buying. DLCs in that case were a plus, a positive content boost, something that made the base game, whcih was already good, even better.

>>168313478
>unacceptable
i'd wait to see what the mode actually entails before jumping to that conclusion. as people have already said, this hard mode and hero/game2 mode are not necessarily the same thing

>>168320418
you're probably gone but in no way does selling DLC=getting less than 100℅ of Vidya or unfinished experience. game is created and completed. the dongle dingles they sell you are to make more money on top. you won't be missing out on the intended experience without them.

now if they just cut out the final dungeon of the game or removed an entire gameplay element and said "give $20 and you can finish it" then I'd see your point.

>>168321342
You aren't wrong but, damn, shitposting makes my blood boil.

People keep saying there will only be four dungeons in the game one for each beast, but aren't people forgetting about the fifth? Hyrule Castle is usually a dungeon too.

I used to do that too. On /v/ and Neogaf (not a user, just lurked), every day.
Oh boy, the headaches I got in those years.
Then I realized both of them used to get their news from Twitter. So now I basically just follow some Twitter pages that are the prime sources of news, I put notifications on so I won't miss anything either.
I never felt better. I get all the news straight, without any personal comment or bias leading the way, so I can make my own opinion on them.

I don't have any social media accounts so I'm outta luck there. /v/ is basically that notification for me, which I then go searching for elsewhere.

I think the Dungeon is tied to the dlc story so you'll get as few or as many rewards as dungeons in the full game will give you

Well, to add to my original post, I'll say that Nintendo Spain is known for using the same voice actor for several characters, specially if they're good. The same guy who's doing the Old Man in Zelda worked in Star Fox 64 3D / Zero and he was (that I remember): The intro narrator, General Pepper, Wolf and Andross.

So yeah, there's a possibility he'll be voicing both Ganondorf and Daphnes in this game.

It's not the kindness of their heart. It's the launch title for a new console when the last console has already gone out of production. They need to ensure that people buy the damn thing and they've done it by selling you on vaporware.

Your own logic led to this.

Week before release I'm sure they'll upload their full gameplay demo but for now we'll have to make do with this because constant coverage means some of it will be inconsequential

>>168338702

Production demands, quotas, software development, financial realities.

The bean counters said they needed a new console asap.
The manufacturers said when they could have the Switch ready for sale. That was roughly the deadline for the launch titles. the launch titles weren't ready and it would cost a lot of fucking money to just sit on already made consoles for several months to a year, so they pushed it all out with plans to patch it.

because everyone else does it and we buy the games which is our vote for the practice to continue.

Moral of the story: Don't make a big complex unprecedented game that takes several years to properly make the launch title for a new console that didn't even have dev kits for half its development.

Does anyone have the picture of Link and it says "shit" underneath? Looking for it

For £18 those useful items iems we get on the Plateau better be more than food or breakable weapons

They should just make it entirely clothes because a nice weapon which breaks and I can't get it back or is a copy of one I could've gotten in the game with a modicum of effort won't cut it. Also high grade food items are great and all but once I've eaten them I'm in the same boat of having to expend effort to get them again or possibly be unable because they're exclusive one use items

I suppose greater carrying capacity would be nice but not something which would make the game any easier

Considering you get maps by climbing Towers why buy them from Tingle. On top of that Rupees are rare to find and you'll have other things you'd like to buy with money you get for trading goods

then don't watch it. I doubt they'll title it in any subtle fashion

To me the thing is if the day one stuff is lacklustre then I'll probably just wait till people have played the DLC and then decide to buy or not.

At that point I'll have stuff so much better than it especially if it's limited use that I wouldn't bother going back to pick it up

>>168344284

Pro settings is what everyone thinks hard mode is but seems kinda meh to me. I don't think I'd ever play hard mode because from the sounds of it the game is plenty hard and I'd rather walk around the map oneshotting everything with full power Link than go back to the starter level and have an even harder time

>>168344408

would it be as sweet if it was red with the Switch logo

although considering you could upgrade your Ocarina why shouldn't you be able to go onto a better model of glider. say one which uses less stamina

>This expansion pass will be $20 and come with two DLC packs. One will add a hard mode and a Cave of Trials (like Twilight Princess) while the other will add “a new dungeon and a new original story.” The whole package will also let Link wear a shirt with a Switch logo on it, for some reason. And you can’t purchase any of these packs individually, Nintendo says. It’s either $20 or nothing.

I'm interested in the new dungeon and original story but it seems like a screwjob that I have to buy features that I don't want to get them, especially since I was already expecting a hard mode for free.

I haven't been to /v/ since the announcement, is it bad?

Wow /lozg/ isn't as comfy as I remember.

>>168346459
we don't know what the hard mode entails. the ganondorf amiibo essentially emulates all the features of the hero mode in past games, and the game itself already has no hearts available outside of items, so it's difficult to see where they'd add anything as far as a standard hard mode.

some of the ideas proposed in this thread like having the game not pause when you deal with items/food, or actually replacing/upgrading enemy classes (more blue bokos than red, different weapon combinations than standard enemies) are interesting prospects, but i can see how those would take time to make? not really sure

ultimately i'm totally fine with the $20, but also i'm a rabid fanboy and i'd happily spend $20 on just a new dungeon/story and nothing else

>>168346681

Like a second campaign or a big sidequest though?

>since I was already expecting a hard mode for free.
Explain

Hero mode is just double damage and no hearts in grass/ports

As hearts are not in pots/grass and damage seems to be heavily increased over previous games a hero mode wouldn't make sense.

So what is the "new story"?

>>168347842

nobody knows or will know until closer to "holidays"

Best case scenario it's basically what Majora was to Ocarina. Worst case it's just a really long quest with a Shrine and/or Dungeon and a boss plus new cutscenes

>>168347108
>As hearts are not in pots/grass and damage seems to be heavily increased over previous games a hero mode wouldn't make sense.

Then how does a hard mode? At best it seems like it'll just be more enemies or late game enemies replacing earlier ones or both. ALBW, SS, WWHD and TPHD all had a hero mode included, it seems ridiculous to pay for one at this point.

>>168348936
>ALBW, SS, WWHD and TPHD all had a hero mode included
and those features are already being included here too

>it seems ridiculous to pay for one at this point.
given that all the features of the games you mentioned are already included, i'm not sure how it can "seem ridiculous" to pay for something new and different. we won't know if it's ridiculous until we know what it actually is

The point of hero mode was that it was spartan. If BotW itself is spartan that's less reason for the base game not to have another mode.

i got that from when you said "well if the game already fits all the things i want out of a hard mode, then i expect some other mode too, because i have an arbitrary expectation that multiple modes are a feature we should always have"
