Genuinely feel like I'm the only one not hyped for this game. I feel like there's just too little known and for someone like me who's creatively bankrupt in games I'm just going to be 'ah, boulder and random thing, sure that's a weapon" We still don't really know what the story even is, and it looks like there's only 2 cutscenes as far as we know. Haven't seen any NPC's, haven't seen anything dungeon like or could be seen as a setpiece... it's just kind of nothing all around. I don't need to know why the sky islands are around but I'd like to have a inkling as to why I'd want to even go up there for example, what it adds to the game, anything. I dunno, I play Zelda for the puzzles and memorable dungeons/fights and characters (as well as the music) and after BotW stripped out most of that just to go 'big sandbox go!' I'm increasingly nervous that they stripped even more away to just be the same thing but with even less to make it stand out outside the goofy poo poo more creative people will make E: I want to like Zelda again. Hyrule Warriors of all things even redeemed a lot of the BotW cast to me by giving them actual personalities. Am I going to have to wait for another spinoff to actually care about the setting?

Super No Vacancy posted:really lolling at "there's only 2 cutscenes as far as we know." Stuff like this reminds me of "relax BotW will have more story and cutscenes lmao they didn't show everything'' and then the game came out and welp "It's not about the story/cutscenes look you can get killed holding metal in a storm who wants story lol" People in this thread are being very weird about what amounts to mild concerns lol. I don't think anyone has talked about the franchise being dead or whatever, and 'just play the old games' is such a poo poo write off in almost any situation. Like my brother in christ what do you think people have been doing. Why do you think remakes sell or people want Wind Waker HD or Majora's Mask or whatever old games still. Why is it bad to hope the franchise at least includes *some* of the older stuff instead of just being a big ol empty sandbox again. I have the drat game preordered and it's not like I want TotK to fail, I'm just concerned with how much they haven't shown and how some of the trailers are basically just the same thing over and over again. When Xenoblade 2 and 3 got announced in random nintendo directs they had like, 20 minutes of cutscene and gameplay. What was shown yesterday felt like one of those snippets but even shorter. E: I do wonder on topic of the game if there's a sound cue for stuff falling as I don't really pan the camera up unless given a reason so I'd be worried of random moon tear rocks just bonking me on the head or me just outright missing them. Maybe I just didn't notice but did the rock sparkle or anything when Link got to it to like, highlight that was the right thing?

I don't want a media blowout that's whatever, personally I just want to know what the direction is. Pre-BOTW we knew we'd be ultimately looking for the robo-beasts but in this one we don't really know why link has his weird arm or what the actual goal is other than 'where's zeld' and 'jerky ganondorf is around'Zore posted:BotW has a ton of story and cutscenes though? Its just mostly optional. I skipped the DLC as I walked out of BotW pretty let down (That and most posts at the time of launch were pretty sour on them being low effort or something). I loved the opening opening area but outside that it was just missing a lot of what I liked. Hyrule Warriors actually endeared me to the characters and the world though and it's Calamity Ganon design ruled And the only scenes I really remember is stuff around the opening, some of links memories and Sidon. I don't remember the gorons name and Teba I don't recall if he had more than a few lines and thaats about it for me really ThisIsACoolGuy fucked around with this message at 17:34 on Mar 29, 2023 |

If there is a auto food button to push to heal I wonder if that means you'll be barred from pausing mid combat as that was kiiind of a huge pacebreaker, not to mention having 10 million full heals at hand at any given time was certainly a choice in the first game That and I kinda wonder how it'll pick what Link eats given the +3 to fire res type things attached to them

Unlucky7 posted:Also, if we are going underground or if there are underground sections I hope we get to see Master Kohga again; he was a fun character. Or we meet Master Kohga who is somehow the same exact body shape, voice and personality I want wild poo poo where Age of Calamity is canon and that's somehow why things are breaking in weird ways. Also it'll be funny to see people get mad again that the Champions are back to being alive.

I saw a few posts now saying caves are back in a big way and I wanted to ask where was that confirmed outside one of the two cutscenes being in one Not really saying it's impossible but the only caves I remember were little holes with a shrine in them in 1 and I don't recall seeing anything about them in 2

Fair enough! Just didn't notice the cave markers so here's to hoping there's some interesting stuff in em'. Really as cool as fuse is I really want treasures to be worthwhile and not 'you fought really hard here's a flame sword that breaks in 2 hits that you can find elsewhere' type of stuff. Especially with fuse around really. Kind of the issue I had with Skyward Sword sidequests just giving you fruit gummies to trade in- just not as exciting even if it ultimately ends in the better reward.

The best cutscene is in Age of Calamity where some of the guardians are chatting and the camera pans to Link and a bunch of soldiers literally just eating rocks and hooting and hollering about it

I do hope the final boss of totk is more than just 'large pig that stands still and dies' though, joking aside AoC had a pretty cool one moveset wise and it owns they let you gently caress around with it post game

They realized they forgot to give Teba a character so his new stand out attribute is that he's loving dead. Also red noodle hair tapestry lookin guy was there I think? Unless that was just dorf' before getting a hair cut.

Teba remembers meeting Revali in the spinoff and has decided to give up after having the illusion shattered. Though asking, have we seen a stamina wheel? I didn't like it at all in BotW and looking at links goofy rear end moon jumps and wondering if that got removed or if it was just hidden for trailer purposes. Honestly that's my biggest concern with the sky stuff is loving up and falling and having to find the way back up and having to do stuff all over again. I'm not entirely sure what they'd do to alleviate that outside putting a killbox under certain places so you respawn like the Sky Temple in Twilight, or being able to rewind yourself like a emulator

I hope treehouse doesn't gently caress up Links character this time around. Remember that being a thing in BotW and I don't know why they didn't want Link to have a personality

Zore posted:Eh, it might or might not have been Link but they definitely made the mission log drier and removed a lot of the fluff from it even if it was supposed to be an omniscient narrator. If it was overblown then my b. I just like reading little tidbits of personality building and the like and was kinda bummed at the time as I assumed it was like the piklopedia in world building

Remind me but WW Ganondorf was kinda not interested in hurting anyone right? I don't remember his whole speech but I faintly recall him looking at Link and being like 'man I'm not gonna kill you or anything I'm just going to yoink the power to give my Hyrule a second chance.' and only snapping when the King Instant Transmissioned over to the triforce first I kinda wonder what it would have been like if he succeeded and really did keep his word of not really being interested in hurting anyone.

I never finished spirit tracks I hated almost everything about it except for Zelda and I got to them introducing the one hit kill trains. I tried to back away from one but it switched into my lane and got me because backing up is 10x slower and I lost a lot of progress. Just wasn't worth finishing that quest so new hyrule got ran over or whatever that plot was.

I kinda wonder if Daruk/Revali/Urbosa/Mipha will show up at all even if it's just force ghosts Not a big deal if they don't all things considered but with how beloved they are kinda surprised if they don't get at least some mention. Also in the trailer when link is moon jumping between platforms you can see a gigantic hole in the ground with Malice oozing out, wonder if you can still rush this games final boss and that's the target to aim for.

Teba having his Faith broken by Revali in AoC was hilarious, but Yunobo gets a special shout out for showing up to save Daruk and Daruk instead getting a second win because of course he has to save Yunobo E: I never went back to check but does Teba heal after you clear the dungeon/game? He did get blasted

Wanted to ask if the DLC did much for the Rito in BotW I remember Zora's domain being fleshed out, woven into the story pretty well and Mipha was treated with this heavy sense of gravity. Urbosa and the Gerudo too and Gorons had there moment but all I remember of the Rito is just 'hi we all live on this tree here's Teba he got shot okay bye thanks for visiting" Like I don't recall much being done with them or their part of the game standing out much outside the divine beast flying. Even AoC I only really remember Rito warriors being in the stage where you get Revali at the very start.
