Well everyone, I'd like to welcome you to the beginning of the End of a beloved Franchise.
I would like to thank nintendo for bringing us Zelda Phantom HourGlass Railway Tycoon edition, but its not what we needed.
A third Windwaker style game? No thanks. They are not only not trying, but the games are becoming less and less challenging, and nintendo's business model of pandering to the casual gamer is now hurting one of its greatest franchises.
In the age of the Next Gen consoles, who doesn't want to see a big, dramatic, exciting Zelda game that lives up to the epic proportions of the zelda games we loved.
Zelda 1,2, LTTP, and Ocarina were epic, you felt it while playing. They were fun to play, they were adventures that could suck you in, and never left you wanting, except for more zelda. Windwaker was fun, PHG was decent, but they don't live up to the history of the franchise. and I fear it will only get worse.
I'll play another Zelda game the day they release a dark, dramatic, challenging game that is worth my time as a zelda fan. No more of this casual gamer bullshit. Fuck you Nintendo, each time I play one of these subpar zelda games, my memories of the fantastic series that it was is tainted further.
The moment you pull the master sword out of the stone in Ocarina in time, and transport further along the time line, is single handedly a more epic moment than Windwaker, Phantom hour glass, and no doubt this train bs combined.
I want to remember Link thay way. Not this douche bag whiny cell shaded mother fucker.
Again, fuck you nintendo, you are ruining a childhood icon.
My god, there is only one person I know who can piss and moan about new things as much as you; ME.
A third Windwaker style game? No thanks. More like, YES PLEASE. Wind Waker was the best Zelda game I ever played, and I've played them all (barring the CD-i ones). As far as I'm concerned, Nintendo needs to make ALL zelda games from now on WW style. The Style suits zelda perfectly. TP is too realistic.
Zelda 1,2, LTTP, and Ocarina were epic, you felt it while playing. Zelda 1 was epic. Zelda 2 was so-so. LTTP is one of the series' highlights. And as for Ocarina; get over your my-first-zelda memories. Majora's Mask was 10x better than Ocarina.
I'll play another Zelda game the day they release a dark, dramatic, challenging game that is worth my time as a zelda fan. Dark? Dramatic? Please sell any and all Nintendo related items you own, and purchase a PS3 or somesuch. Zelda is not supposed to be GRIMDARK MANLYMEN SPACE MARINES. It's a game made by Miyamoto, based on his fucking around in a cave with a flashlight when he was a kid.
Nintendo, each time I play one of these subpar zelda games, my memories of the fantastic series that it was is tainted further. Not to ruin anything for you, but all zelda games are more or less the same. GO TO DUNGEON. GET WEAPON. USE WEAPON IN VARIOUS WEAPON-RELATED PUZZLES. GO TO BOSS. USE WEAPON ON BOSS. GET ARBITRARY ITEM. GO TO NEXT DUNGEON TO GET NEW WEAPON.
Every zelda game that doesn't do something radically new is subpar.
The moment you pull the master sword out of the stone in Ocarina in time, and transport further along the time line, is single handedly a more epic moment than Windwaker Yes, because that moment in Wind Waker when you pull out the Master Sword and Hyrule, which was sunk beneath the sea and frozen in time, suddenly starts coming back to life... that moment was nothing, amirite?
I want to remember Link thay way. Yes, this n64 rendition of link, who only appeared in 2 games and had 2 or 3 facial expressions surely is the be-all-end-all version of link. This cel-shaded Link with a face which can show what his feelings are is nothing.
My god, wasn't TP enough of an Ocarina of Time 2 experience for you? Do fans like you HAVE to keep dragging this series back to what was your first and fondest experience? THAT mindless whining fanboyism is what is going to kill the series, not trains. Not cell-shading.
I for one thought WW was absolute shit when Nintendo unveiled it. I had my underage shitstorm ragefest. I wanted that pretty Ocarina 2, just like that 3d tech demo they had shown, not THIS. And then I bought it. And I got on that motherfucking boat, and I was SOLD.
If you can't accept the series doing new things, maybe you need to find something else to play.
You're being the same as with the DSi here. GOD DAMN WHY ISN'T THE DSi ANOTHER DSlite. WHAT IS THIS CAMERA BULLSHIT. WHERE IS MY GBA. THIS IS BULLSHIT. CASUALS ARE RUINING GAMING. CASUALS CASUALS CASUALS! RAH RAH RAH.
Don't want? Don't buy. Not like you can stop nintendo from bringing that shit to stores.
Anyhoo, about Spirit Tracks;
-First reaction; ZELDA WITH TRAAAAAAAAINS LOOL SHITSUX
-After watching the trailer; FUCK YEAH TRAINS
They could've gotten rid of the dungeons alltogether. This normal-clothes wearing link is badass as hell. Look at him, blazing the fucking frontier. YEAH.
