Now I'm imagining the lead up to Ganon's Tower and Ganondorf being completely smashed unable to stand up without leaning on something and he stumbles to his pipe organ and instead of Ganon's theme he starts playing a mistimed crappy version of The Entertainer

You share a drink, then a couple more, next thing you know you're waking up in a pod a century later and have no recollection of how you got there or what the gently caress you did last night subjectively.

It's a Hangover situation, but with Link and upstanding citizen Ganon as buddies celebrating Ganon's wedding, and when Ganon wakes up, he finds he's caused the apocalypse and just rolls with it until his best pal wakes up 100 years later.

I really hope they've fixed the colors in the Wii U version since the E3 demo--they look so much nicer in the Switch version and washed out colors ruining a beautiful game is just the kind of thing to make me prematurely buy a Switch.Augus posted:I'm sensing a fair bit of Princess Mononoke influence there (and also with the overall aesthetic of the game) I'm getting a big Mononoke meets Nausicaa vibe from the game in general and I love it. Everything about BotW's setting and aesthetics is perfect for me. Also I have to admit I'm pleasantly surprised I haven't seen any diehard Zelda uber-nerd angry that Link's default outfit isn't his classic green. I'm digging the new blue look (though I know I'll be replacing it with all sorts of cold weather gear and armor throughout the game).

I'm sure he will get into his classic garb at some point in the game, though. Nothing wrong with changing a few outfits on the way. Though I'm still irrationally mad at him being right handed.

Yeah, not too sure why he's right-handed this time. I understand why they had to do that for Skyward Sword, but when you're controlling link with a normal controller, there's no reason he has to be right-handed. (I still don't really know why they had to mirror the Wii version of Twilight Princess--it's not like the sword swings were one-to-one there, you just flick the wiimote to swing, it's practically a replacement for a button press and didn't really require Link's sword arm to be on the same side of the player's body as the wiimote is.  )

I guess they wanted it to match up because people thought it was 1:1. In order for Link to be right handed, they had to mirror all the dungeons to account for items being used from the other side.

I'm sure they wouldn't have gone through all the trouble of mirroring the entire game unless they tested it and it was weird for right handed people.

Mahoning posted:I'm sure they wouldn't have gone through all the trouble of mirroring the entire game unless they tested it and it was weird for right handed people. I guess that's true. I wouldn't really know without having a chance to try it unmirrored with the wiimote and that's not going to happen, so I guess I'll have to assume that it's really weird.

Considering the right-handed Link and the sword-swinging animations being similar to Skyward Sword's, maybe there was a point in time where they were going to use motion controls for the game, and these are leftovers from that phase of development?

Finding hearts in rocks or grass isn't in this game. It's all potions potions and food.

With the game design bottles&fairies aren't nearly as necessary as they used to be when you can just munch down all the food you need to max out your hearts during the pause menu. I get the feeling that tons of the "expected" features of the franchise are being replaced or changed up to have completely different functions. Do we even know if magic is a feature in the game? It looks like the emphasis is on the liquid blue Sheikah Tech for all magic-like abilities but all that's been revealed are the various bomb runes, stasis, magnetic, and ice block runes. There have to be at least 6-7 more especially given that there are 100+ shrine mini-dungeons and I'd expect the puzzles for each to have enough variety that at least a dozen variations are present.

Magic Meter has been replaced by battery meter on your Sheikah Tablet and you have to scour Hyrule for power outlets. If you collect 50 Sheikah charging adapters you can upgrade to a 6 ft charging cable.

TFRazorsaw posted:I think what stands out more is that you run into things like that so early on in the game Did the developers actually make a reference to Dark Souls and the changing standards of video games or was that my imagination? I feel like someone from Nintendo talked about making Zelda more like those kinds of changes while also referencing the recent great open world games as a explanation for changing up the Zelda formula so much.
