Zelda: Leaks of the kingdom thread

[Drakortha]

Looks bland, just like BoTW. Still no regrets selling my switch 2nd hand years ago.

 

[HeatEXTEND]

Just looks like more BOTW. Good.

Gothic 2: Zelda

 

[Zanzoken]

Looks cool, but really makes me wonder why Nintendo would need 6 years to develop it, considering it looks like the same engine and lots of assets reused from Breath of the Wild.

 

[HeatEXTEND]

considering it looks like the same engine

optimization/itiration hopefully.

Zelda hasn't been good since A Link To The Past. Maybe there's an argument for Link's Awakening.

This 3d shit for Zelda is utter garbage, and it always has been.

 

[cruel]

I just hope they will improve on enemy variety and make the open world less empty / boring. Also, this will be the first $70 Nintendo game, not that I blame them - still worth it for a 100h game.

 

[Talby]

Those vehicle things look like they might be player designed, I can't wait to make a giant swastika car to drive around.

 

[perfectslumbers]

Botw is my favourite game but it could easily be improved a lot. I hope Tears of the Kingdom ends up even better

 

[Ezekiel]

Enjoyed Breath of the Wild well enough for an open world game. Would play it over almost any of the other modern ones. But Zelda has no style. Hasn't had style for a long time. Maybe they should hire better visual artists and musicians from outside.

It seems like they:
- increased sheik abilities and special items
- increased enemy variety
- expanded on existing enemies behaviours
- remixed existing locations with either new encounters or new sections of level design
- so far no sheik shrines were shown in the overworld and dungeons seem a more substantial affair

Overall I would say they seem intent in ironing out BotW issues and playing on it's strenghts, rather than keep experimenting with new ideas

New Zelda would be amazing opportunity to be released on new Switch 2, with more powerful hardware that would actually make a difference. Buuuuut we probably won't see it too soon, Switch sales and games are still at a high level, so I guess it's easier and SAFER for them to keep going as it is.

With an install base of millions upon millions of consoles, there is no insentive for a new console while people are still lining up to buy your games, games which are almost never discounted... And will be sold at 70€ from now on.

I see no switch 2 in the immediate future.

 

[KIss My Ass]

Keep weapon durability but add in a way to repair them. Finding new weapons should feel satisfying and it simply wasn't in BOTW because you knew it would eventually disappear. That was always my biggest beef.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

Art book for the game was leaked
Apparently spoiling alot of items, locations and characters.

Spoiler

only saw a few, but it seems the game will feature a wingsuit
also saw a ship that reminds me of Wind Waker's ghost ship

Yeah that checks out.

I quite liked Breath of the Wild, mainly because it felt like a an actual world and not a *game* space. That all said, I'm not exactly on pins and needles for Tears of the Kingdom. I am not a fanboy of Nintendo, my consumption of Nintendo games is usually ad-hoc and well after their point of popularity.

Nintendo's also one of those aggressively regressive companies that nickles and dimes you at every turn. I say regressive though because they're not good at it like Ubisoft or Microsoft.

That doesn't make it better. Getting nickled and dimed is still shit, doesn't matter how effective the marketing is.

Wut?

Zelda: Tears of the Fanboys

 

[Drakortha]

Traditional dungeons and classic item progression will be nowhere to be found in this new Zelda.

Except there won't be any tears because these distinct features that were part of Zelda's DNA since time immemorial were completely missing from Zelda: Breath of the Wild yet the fanboys ate up that slop and shilled it to kingdom come.

 

[Snorkack]

That's too bad. When I aborted my playthrough of Assassins Creed: Breath of the Wild after 5 disappointing hours, I really thought: man, it would be so cool if they made a Zelda game in that engine.
How this game ranks as Best game of evarr on metacritic and co is unfathomable.

you should blame todd for failing to produce Skyrim 2 since 2011

 

[ADULF HITLOR FAN KLUB]

Assassins Creed: Breath of the Wild

Breath of the Wild is probably the best game Ubisoft ever made.

They even perfected their crafting of towers.

Gonna buy the collector's edition if it's ever back in stock.
