So I just started playing the WWHD after finishing TPHD. How the gently caress does this game look so much better? I loved the environmental style in TP, and liked the slightly strange character design, but the colors were just a washed-out blur. All this color has gotten me real excited.

Also, forgot you could just crawl around on your belly all the time. 5/5


Actually what's blowing my mind in the first thirty minutes of playing is how much more forgiving running and jumping is. Feels much more fluid. That's great cause I was personally irked at most of my dumb deaths coming from missing a jump.:argh:

Some ideas like allowing me to keep moving while aiming things like the boomerang or grappling hook are huge QOL improvements. I haven't played WW since it came out and it's really surprising me how much more refined movements feel compared to TP.

It was so bad I stopped using Epona.

But seriously Links Awakening taught me how to approach games via hitting every surface possible just in case. Took me 15+ years to reign that impulse in.

Breath of the Wild seems to be shaping up to have nice ambiance as well:

I can't find it now, but I was watching a similiar clip and they sped it up 4x. You could hear the ambient music in the background was the Temple of Time piece, slowed way down and slightly disjointed. I hope that's a motif that runs throughout the game.

You could still get the Wii VC version on your Wii U. Same with Ocarina of Time.

I have the OoT one, but I'm pretty sure there's no VC option for MM or LA at all, just the 3DS MM remake.

I'm surprised no one is claiming Old Man to be Rauru. Is it just obviously not that? Cause the idea makes sense in my head.

So Hyrule Warriors.

I mean, it's kind of the 5th timeline, right? Or at least a vortex next to the timeline with an asterisk. I remember it supposedly being canon in its own right.

Probably but I don't expect the Switch version to be a massive improvement like be in 60FPS or something.

I thought that was what the difference was supposed to be?

No they haven't said anything about it being different.

Seriously, I thought this was brought up in the thread earlier, pretty much as the only real difference. ...?

I'm seriously thinking of going to the one in Honolulu if I can get the time off.

I saw the posters by Chinatown around October and I got really hype. I don't know if I can convince anyone to get time off to go with me, tho.

I hope they take a page out of LA and I get to hit up a witch for a bag of magical powder which I'll proceed to use on EVERYTHING. Just in case. Also the fishing and musical instruments.

No one really mentions Links Awakening in this thread but it was my first Zelda game and forever cemented me as a fan. I think OoT is the only other one to hit me right in the feels the same way.

Goddamnit Nintendo release LA on Wii U
