So is the voice acting only during cutscenes? Because it seems the NPCs are the same old grunts and other noises with on screen text for dialogue.

I hope so, full voice acting is one of the most monumentally stupid decisions the games industry ever made. I can't wait to catch every horse in Hyrule like they're Pokemon.

I don't think Zelda is a game that needs full voice acting, but other games having it is not a mistake if it's done correctly. For example all the banter in Final Fantasy XV was a pretty integral part of the game experience.

I wonder how many hours I'll spend in the game just roaming and farming for consumables before even bothering with the next shrine or dungeon. New powerful runes? gently caress that I found a forest glade where I can gather 20+ rare mushrooms and herbs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJXpZLLebLg Side by side comparison looks like the Switch is clearly an upgrade from the WiiU. The WiiU looks like the draw distance is less and and textures are at least 1-2 steps down if comparing to the standard "med-high-ultra" for PC settings. Same frame-rates allegedly so hopefully no crazy slowdown. pentyne fucked around with this message at 20:46 on Jan 14, 2017 |

Augus posted:I mean, full voice acting kinda ruined Fallout 4 forever Ruined is an over exaggeration. It was a fun game, but it wasn't much of a "classic" Fallout game like 3 and NV. It really wanted to be a gripping 3rd person action game like Mass Effect plus with a Minecraft building feature. Whether or not VA ruins a game is usually down to the player perception of being removed from the role as the PC. If Link suddenly had lines of un-voiced text dialogue and could select multiple responses to questions it would probably be controversial as gently caress but nowhere near those lines being voiced. I've never played a game franchise where the inclusion or lack of VA dialogue suddenly ruined the game for me and I'm amazed at the mentality "Link's never had dialogue it has to stay that way!" when the entire radical development of BoTW stemmed from the new devs being brought in and questioning the far more experienced staff on why things are done X,Y,Z instead of a different way. Once you break out of that mindset of traditional=good you can channel creative energies into something that has the potential to become far better then it could've been if stuck to a stock formula. Just look back and how in 2001/2 the community flipped the gently caress out at Wind Waker and Cel-da because it was so completely different from what they wanted in a new Zelda game but WW turned out to be arguably the best Zelda. Then flash forward to 2006 when Twilight Princess was hyped to gently caress and back for being exactly what everyone wanted but its not nearly as well regarded.

You're also comparing an older build to a newer one, so I think it's very possible this video isn't accurate.

Full voice acting is just another thing to get wrong, and is most commonly found in games that have clunky animations, laughable realism, and take themselves too seriously given how bad the former qualities are.

That's a really silly argument, especially because realism is not the be-all-end-all goal of a video game and "they shouldn't do something because they might get it wrong" would apply to literally everything in games.

So is Ganon's name in this Calamity Ganon then? Because when they came to that line the latin american dub said "the cataclysm known as Ganon"

Ganon the Gerudo Typhoon. Maybe this is supposed to secretly be a Western-themed game. I hope all those important NPCs/sages you meet get cool nicknames as well.

El Burbo posted:Fallout always had full voice acting, what ruined it was giving the player character one as well. I don't think that will be a problem with Link Fallout 1 had full acting for talking head characters and the intro and ending, but not for interactions with generic or minor characters. It also didn't have any voice acting for combat if I remember correctly. Cojawfee posted:I think it was supposed to be "the calamity, Ganon." The Japanese name seems to imply this too. Grammatically you would interpret it as Ganon who is a calamity. Kinda like that one game, I think it was called "That Dragon, Cancer"? Or like in Final Fantasy Tactics how you had stuff like "Magic City Gariland" or whatever. In Japanese it used the same adjective-describing-noun form that Calamity Ganon uses.

So if dogs are tameable and work similar to how Wolf Link works, i'm going to assume Horse Link summons Epona as a tameable horse. If that's the case, i'm liking how these non anniversary Zelda amiibo work. Not gating any features, just giving Zelda themed skins for stuff you can already have.
