Post-apocalyptic was cool in theory but it got old pretty fast. Having only 2 real towns and extremely sparse population was a bummer. Also, just think of how much more hype Hyrule Castle would have been if it weren't just a bunch of dingy broken hallways.

A real hellraiser


Kakariko, Zora place, Hateno, beach village, Goron village, Rito town, Gerudo city, and the one you can build yourself. Saying there were only two towns you have to dismiss a lot out of hand

Breath of the Royale. Just literally BOTW's exact map, more chests lying around and you drop a hundo Links.

I would play this. I would play the poo poo out of this. Guardians activate when there are only 10 players left to hurry up the end game. Weapons have durability so you constantly have to hunt for new weapons instead of camping once you get a sniper rifle. Food is craftable and recovers health but you can't move while cooking or eating. The "fog of war" is calamity Ganon decending around you.

Just make it happen, Nintendo.

Oh and chests can contain spirit orbs, most enemies drop one (maybe lower level ones only have the chance to) and Lynels and Guardians drop 4.

Women are wonderful animals, they should be making music and writing novels about having a complex relationship with your mother.
Maybe the next Zelda game should have multiple romance options

I started Twilight Princess HD because finishing BOTW has me on a Zelda kick. I remember the opening dragging but man. Twelve years later it's just as bad if not worse. Also every NPC is weirdly grotesque and the small-town-RPG opening they're trying really falls flat. I might just jump to wind waker HD instead.

I'm sticking with this but

- there are two separate scenes where ilia takes Epona and you have to meet her at the spring
- there are separate tutorials for horse grass and hawk grass
- there is a tutorial for jumping over gates with epona
- there are two separate goat herding tutorials
- there is a fishing tutorial
- you get the slingshot, then have to use it to kill a spider to proceed. A nice natural tutorial! Then the children show you how to use the slingshot to break targets
- the children teach you how to swing a sword to break a dummy
- there is then a long sequence where you jump over a gate with Epona, run through some corridors and fight enemies that either don't attack you or don't move, which would be a fine tutorial on its own if it wasn't for the previous bullet points

This is all before I've even turned into a wolf. This is worse than I remember

Yuuuup.

Man, they made the opening areas too small for the horse they want you to ride everywhere...

I remember having a ton of fun when you get to turn back and forth from Wolf form freely, so, uh, have fun in ten hours.

one of my favorite things about a new Zelda is finding the new items and equipment and I hope whatever the next Zelda they make is has that

it was one thing that disappointed me a bit in BotW because outside of a couple of armor pieces there was just nothing new to pick up in the world, no gadgets or new fancy techniques. It was also my biggest problem with LBW because that game just gave you all the items from the start and made you rent them which sucked

Link to the Past and Link's Awakening in the botw engine would be peak Zelda for me.

Link's Awakening 3D with a Majora's Mask-like narrative focus on the villagers, especially Malon, as Link progresses through the dungeons would be extremely my poo poo.

If BotW had full-on dungeons, they absolutely would've had one in the Lanayru Promenade, that place is so neatly tucked into the area it sits in that it practically screams "dungeon" and realizing there was only a shrine there was the biggest disappointment of the game by far for me. Of course, by that I mean I said "aw bummer that could've been awesome. Oh well, what's in this field up ah-oh gently caress a Lynel RUN"

learning organically about the bullet time you get from shooting the bow in mid-air felt way cooler than any "opening the big chest" reveal but i do see your point. only one of the champion powers actually feels like a new ability

I mean BotW has a ton of other cool stuff going for it and is already one of the best games ever made, so it's not a dealbreaker or anything but I just think it would've been ridiculously cool if some of the well-hidden secrets had contained actual stuff. I know it's been talked about a bunch of times already but imagine if something like the hookshot could be found in the world (instead of another korok seed/shrine), something that isn't required to beat the game but is a nice thing to have and makes you feel cool as poo poo for finding! There are so many things you could add that wouldn't have to be necessary to beat the game but could still add some QOL or traversal options.

BotW had the best sense of exploration and discovery in any game I've played so it was more of a "journey rather than destination" thing with all the korok seeds and shrines, but I'm also a sucker for treasure and it was always the thing I was most excited for when a new Zelda game came out :shobon:

If there was a hookshot everybody would just look up how to find it and instantly go for it. That's the danger of making something too good and unique like that.

I mean, so what? if you're the type who will look up and beeline for stuff then you do you, y'know? that doesn't take anything away from those of us who want to explore and find that stuff for ourselves
