THE HYPE IS REAL
Brother/Sister tag team TLoZ game when?
So if we were to assume that every Nintendo franchise is connected in some way. Metroid, F-Zero, and Star Fox all being in Space. Mario and Link being on the same planet due to similar creatures spread across the planet, and so on.
Does that make her Farore? She has the green hair, the golden armor (golden goddess), deals with the Sky, a very similar thing to Farore's Symbol (albeit thats stretching it on my part), a bird like symbol behind her (only in smash I believe though), and has cocklust for Link (also only in Smash).
If the Nintendo universes were connected, would you guys be fine with Palutena being Farore and Farore is just the name Hylians gave her?
I want a Hyrule so complete that they can use it again and again. I want a Hyrule so complete that they can recreate all the past games quest on it.
Tell me about it. I've wanted proper armor in Zelda ever since I saw the Magic Armor in TP. I absolutely love that armor that I'm willing to infinite rupee it just to use it. Not like anything in the game is going to kill you anyways outside of Hero/Ganondorf HD shenanigans.
That is the first thing I'm doing when I get the game. I'm gonna do the shrines to get the Glider and immediately go on a hunt for ore and armor. I am stupidly excited for that alone, let alone all the other cool stuff that was shown.

Now, vote my friends, the poll closes in approximately 19 hours.
is really that bad ?
Maybe yes. Maybe no.
"Gods" in the Nintendo lore are just normal people with super powers.
Just play it, dude.
And now we know why everyone is fighting in Super Smash Brothers.
Depends on who you ask. I love all the Zelda games myself, that includes SS. So I'll give you how I feel about the game personally.
+Story, it has a very good story with some good characters spread about and really pulls you into some moments in regards to how Link feels and has some powerful scenes in the series.
+Aesthetic, the water color aesthetic is beautiful and really fits in the Zelda universe quite well.
+Dungeons/Bosses, the dungeons and bosses are largely some of the best in the series honestly. 1-2 bosses are very poorly designed, but overall most of them feel amazing to actual conquer and get through.
-The Flame Sneaking sections can be a bit of a pain as they go on. I personally like them, but they are flawed and can be frustrating for someone playing it the first time.
-Motion Plus+, while an interesting thing and it does work, it can very easily be circumvented in quite a lot of places by just waggling wildly.
-Fi, while I personally like Fi, she can be a bit of an annoyance and doesn't have anywhere near as much character as Midna or Linebeck for instance.
-Areas, areas aren't as entirely diverse as past Zeldas and are revisted, just with slightly different parts you couldn't get to before. With the exception of the first area that does change quite a bit, the latter two do not change nearly as much to warrant going through them again.
The cons I listed are all personal things that a variety of people have had complaints on. While they don't personally bother me, I felt I should add them as a con as I can see how they would frustrate or annoy people. I think the game really does shine in a lot of places though and is definitely worth a playthrough. The intro/tutorial of the game can be quite long and annoying though for some people, again, doesn't bother me, but its something to be aware of it you don't like it upon first impressions.
Hope I helped.
It's ridiculously varied. On one hand the story is probably one of my favorites out of Legend of Zelda. I'd never felt more invested in any of the games, to the point where Impa telling me off at Eldin actually insulted me. The characters were good too, Groose grew on me a lot and Zelda was likable, Lord Ghirahim was a great villain although Demise was disappointing.
On the other hand actually playing the game could be such a pain in the ass. The fetch quests and escorts and the things that get repeated over and over were so annoying that sometimes it felt like a chore to play. Then there were the times where playing the game was fucking awesome like most of the big fights and every Lanayru stage.
The music was great too, very cheery to match the game's tone.
Who would win in a battle for Link's cock? Cia or Palutena?
Cia has a deeper commitment to the quest.
Palutena would win in the end. Cia is more dedicated, but Palutena is willing to try and beat the shit out of Link to make him hers. Cia more like just goes on a mental breakdown in terms of that.

I WANT TO FUCK FI
>fucking a fictional character/drawing
Literally how?
No, it's great.
Majora's Mask on the U's Virtual Console is probably not gonna happen soon, eh?

>hypefaggotry
I wished on the triforce that you will never get to touch her.
Now we wait and see which of us gets what we wanted.
It would look identical to the Wii release, which you can get on the WiiU. You are probably wishing for MMHD, but it probably won't happen. Your only option is to emulate.
Is anyone else worried that we'll get almost no iconic/great music from Breath of the Wild?
I don't think I care. Music is a nice bonus, but far from the reason I play.
You have the characters and the phenomenal music, you have IMO some of the best bosses in the series, but you also have the worst boss in the series and deceptively forced linearity.
>MM3D
Just get the superior Nintendo console ATM and play it. You won't be disappointed.

Get the fuck off my goddamn general.
Reminder that Sheik is MALE
No, I mean Majora's Mask. I know it's on the Wii VC but I'm talking about the Wii U VC
>(You)
I didn't say anything about 3D.
You know you could just find a real woman to do those things with right? Instead of just imagining you can. Hell you might even find one that looks like you're picture.
Well, it's not the reason I play either, but you can't deny Zelda soundtracks have gotten pretty iconic at this point. Since Ocarina of Time (some would argue even earlier), the series has had highly memorable tracks in each major console release, from Gerudo Valley to Molgera to Ballad of the Goddess even if it's just a Zelda's Lullaby reskin.
And music has played a major part throughout the series. For them to choose to deliberately downplay the music in the newest game makes me worry BotW could feel incomplete, like it's just shy of being a true Zelda experience.

>Sometimes the royal family only has a son.
>He is put in dresses from birth so that he can still be the princess.
Go back to real life where you belong
Just listen to the trailer music.
I mean yeah we're not getting an overworld theme, but Dungeons, characters, cutscenes and other stuff will as always have music.
Oh, my bad. I thought you were asking about an HD version. If all you want is the vanilla game, best emulate.
I've been waiting a long time for it to come to the Wii U VC after they released OOT, but you have to accept that it's never coming. I bought it for the Wii, but I don't like how it looks now. Might as well deal with it or emulate it.
But this is real life. Why don't you join me?
The puzzles and soundtrack is kind of the reason I play. So the way the series is going makes me hope that the 3D games' style doesn't go the way of ALttP, y'know, kinda fading away over time.
You're drunk user. Go to bed.
...
I am above it all. No, it would be more accurate to say I'm below it all.
But it's 11:47 in the morning.
No, it's 12:48
Reality always catches up to you.
It's 3:48AM
It was your decision to drink breakfast.
>ywn be Link
Non, it's 19:51
Call me when it does.
Imp Midna best waifu.
T I M E Z O N E J A M
But I don't drink user.
No.
I'm worried they'll put so much effort into the open world exploration and "freedom to do whatever" that they'll make the story simple enough that it's not compelling and the dungeons (and I'm borrowing what another user said here) without any real progression in difficulty so that you can complete them in any order you want, like ALBW's Lorule Dungeons.
I like that ramping difficulty, actually NEEDING all the skills I've learned in the game up to that point makes me feel like I'm making real progress. And I love the stories in Zelda, they're what pull me into the games so intently. If BotW doesn't have those, it'll still be a good game, but it won't be a masterpiece like it could be.
Trust me, you'll feel it when it kicks in. Biology never discriminates.
Have a wonderful day.
Too bad she hated being an imp. Twili Midna even has a line in HW about how glad she is to not be an imp, even if in reality she's just trading one set of problems and proportions with another.
>non-american posters
Get the fuck out.
Do you have a smaller picture?
Don't tell me what to do.
The only fear I have about the open world, is that it might be the only thing that the game has. I like open worlds, but at least GTA lets me jack a car and drive irresponsibly with the radio blasting.
I'm scared the dungeons will be more mini-dungeons instead of full-fledged puzzle-packed Stone Towers, like you said with the Lorule dungeons being one-trick ponies that don't really need more than one item. I also would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE a postgame dungeon.
>I also would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE a postgame dungeon
Now the problem I see with that is
>Zelda
>Postgame
Maybe an optional dungeon that's only accessible when you're endgame, or even a dungeon that's only available in the second playthrough, but beating Ganondorf then still traveling around the kingdom picking on bokoblins just doesn't seem Zelda-y.
Hasn't happened yet, and I've been around longer than (You).
But we are Link.

Yeah, because they're making him RIGHT HANDED!
Hashtag Raped Childhood.
You're over 28yo?
Yeah, I get you. I would want one only available on NG+, sorta like Chrono Trigger.
Yeah?

what a pleb. At least they are correcting the mistake they made, and making link even better.
Finding the big neptoona fish in Phantom Hourglass is FUCKING BULLSHIT.

Is hyrule a politically right or left leaning continent?
Who cares? There's monsters fucking everywhere. That usually unites people.
To be fair, her Imp form is more like Young Midna. Where she was a mischievous little thing that wasn't fit to be Queen.
It would have been nice if this Zelda had naturally dark skin. It doesn't matter much but it's not outlandish that she'd have mixed ancestry. Iirc, concept art has her with dark skin so it was an idea once.
its a tan
They're an Empire.
They didn't have a UNIFICATION war for nothing. They bent the other races to their damn knees. I would assume because of the Interloper War, when they realize, oh shit, we better create this Empire and have everyone serve us. Also helps to explain how knowledge of the Triforce began to spread if the Interloper War was before the Unification War.
Surprisingly she isn't actually all that tall, Hylians are just manlets. Compared to say Ganondorf who has a confirmed height of 7'6", she's only around 5'8"-5'10". Tall for a woman usually, but not overall that tall for doors.
I think twilight princess ganondorf is like 9'6'', zenkai too strong.
For him to be 7'6'' in that game would have made TP link about 3'9''
Just a dirty dirty pirate.
I've been avoiding Skyward Sword spoilers but it's impossible. Can someone explain this spoiler to me? Does Zelda know that she's the reincarnation of Hylia? Like, does she have memories? Or is she just a girl who is a reincarnation of a goddess?

I know. That's why I said it would be nice if it wasn't.
They fucking tell you in the game
Go fucking play it you fucking cunt
Well he's 7'6" in all canon sources.
Link is just a manlet. I think they just screwed up the model comparison honestly, those are never truly accurate representations anyways. Usually they always make Ganondorf significantly bigger than Link to make him imposing.
Smash is a better representation, I think in comparison Link is around 5'6" or so.
That's exactly what I want. When I've beaten I don't want camps I haven't cleared to be auto cleared and I want Bokoblins and other enemies to keep spawning into the world so I have stuff to fight, things to hunt and gear to loot forever
Just play the game user. If you really want to know. Yes, she does get her memories of Hylia back. At least SS Zelda does, doubtful on the others.
It's just a question. I want to play the game eventually. I've thought of seeing a Let's Play but they're boring,
It as a tan in the zelda form concept art too, they never considered making her a dirty mexican pirate.
Play it now.
Also she gets her memories back like said. She visits the 3 first temples 5 mins ahead of you to regain her memories.
