Zelda a breath of the wild

Why do people claim that this game is visually stunning?

It looks good but way too many people claim that it's the most good looking game ever and I don't get it, to me it just look like an ok game. What am I missing?

It looks pretty.

It looks pretty bad.

That's what your mom said when she gave birth to you.

I will stab you and rape the wound you fat fucking faggot.

because nintendrones

It's a Nintendo game. Nintendo cultists will always say that Nintendo is magical and that their games are the best.

Personally I haven't seen Zelda do anything that other JRPGs don't.

...

Nintendo franchises are like Star Wars, people will 10/10 that garbage because remember Star Wars?

That's all Zelda games are:
Remember Zelda?
Remember Link?
Remember Ganon?
Remember the Master Sword?
Remember Hyrule?
Remember Gorudo?
Remember Zora?
Remember the Triforce?
Remember the Great Fairy?
Remember Epona?
Remember the word "Deku"?

It's sad, but some people can only find comfort in known franchises and never try anything new, resulting in mass opinion praising regurgitated games as masterful works of art.

Zelda is the most autistic fanbase of grateful shit-eaters that is still growing.

Prove me wrong

Can other JRPGs let you climb mountains?

...

...

...

...

...

...

fuck off ullilililililila

...

The Sonic franchise is most assuredly not growing, unless someone has a time machine and has gone back to the mid 80's to birth more sperglords.

Is this you?

...

The reason I haven't posted more than once is because I want to read other people's opinions. I haven't left or anything.

Yup.

It looks good to me. Might not go as far as "stunning" but it does the nice semi-polygon, semi-cel shade thing very well. Think people may over estimate it a bit due to it being the first HD Zelda that is not a remake/remaster. It's been about a damn decade delayed now. Seeing it in motion helps a lot, too.

...

...

It just looks like any other Survival game.

Does link have a tumblr nose?

Only the story interests me and even then I doubt it will be anything truly groundbreaking or innovative for the series

This will be the new Phantom Pain, except the game might actually be finished and without hollywood actors and instead treehouse. I'll pirate the nip version day one.

You know why.

He's legitimately supposed to have a cold, I think

Enough about link being sick. There are more important issues at hand. Where is Dino Time?

Considering that Nintendo hardware is 10 years in the past, it does look good. At least for Nintendrones because they never have seen good graphics since the Gamecube.

Retards think post processing filters and bloom look good. They have no concept of what visual fidelity actually is.

I want hyrule warriors Zelda back, new one is a bad tranny.

No, but it lets me scale hydras and dragons and sling meteors at them which is the next best thing.

The new stuff sucks, too.

I know exactly what you mean and I will never understand this mentality. People see past excellence and think it means present shittery is somehow completely ok. I know a guy who admits TFA was a pretty shit film but still went back to see it 3 more times because "dude I'm a Star Wars fan, you know that."

It's visually pleasing. Nintendo has always been good at covering up their poor graphics with solid art styles, and I don't see anything wrong with that.

They were not born when Jet Set Radio did it better. Shading is fun, isn't it nintendo?

because our hobby is filled with mouth breathing retards with objectively shit taste who still pay for things with moms disability money

Once you realize this, gaming as a hobby becomes something you dont talk about in public.

Zelda has been around before there were JRPGs. That whole genre just rips off Ultima anyway.

the art style is pretty cool.

It's the shittiest game series of all time. Absolutely boring games.

Yawn….. your shit post is tiring.

Sorry, this trick has been done before. At least nintendo is trying to hide how shit the graphics are by using a 10+ year old technique.

Jet Set Radio was gay as fuck. Lame ass game.

Nice opinions, but i'm not wrong.

Except theres plenty of people who hate the prequels and The Force Awakens. Not that you or anyone else is actually arguing why Zelda is garbage in the first place.

Does anyone actually care about Zelda after Skyward Sword?

There were plenty of reasons to like or dislike WW and TP but did anyone actually enjoy SS?

I mean, there's not even any threads about it or conversations about it after the initial release, but for every other 3D Zelda, a thread or a general pops up now and again. Even if it is just purely shitposting.

Would anyone actually be sad if Zelda was discontinued?

...

At least I found a Chad who liked Deus Ex and Planescape Torment several months ago

Plenty of people is not the majority.

When people say a game looks good, it either has really nice graphics/tech or it's aesthetically pleasing/consistent.

So yeah it's a visually stunning game considering it's made for shit hardware.

Nintendo can't just add more particles, effects and up the poly count to make it look prettier so they need to be crafty and push for greater care in the aesthetics department.

The "do more with less" seems to be a lost art amogst AAA game developers considering that most games that have come out in the last 5 or so years have been unoptimized trainwrecks.


It's shaping up well. Nintendo seems to have gotten their head out of their asses and the game feels like a melting pot of all the "good" trends in videogames in the last 6 years.

The overall style is great but it's ruined by several noticeable graphical downgrades. The lighting is the biggest culprit. Everything looks dull and flat in terms of color and the grass doesn't have that nice sheen that made it stand out. Stylistically, even Wind Waker looks better at this point.

WHAT'S YOUR MOTIVATION TO SURVIVE[/spoiler]

Why is the english dub shit compared to the other dubs Holla Forums?

I want to stab a girl and rape her organs.

I don't know, but every time I peek on Reddit they complain that the Japanese version shows too much emotion. Like, they're complaining that an emotional scene is too strong.

I don't know what it is with Western media and being too afraid of strong, defining characteristics. Movies these days all feature super-serious dudes who talk in monotone, and grey color palettes. I think it's highly reflective of our current standards and regulations right now.

I like the "dramaticized" wailing of Zelda in the Japanese version. It makes her a better waifu AND makes her seem more human. Fuck that obese American girl faking a British accent in the English dub.

Zelda isn't growing

Zelda crying in the Jap version sounded fucking heart-wrenching. The English version sounded like she just stubbed her toe or some shit. No emotion whatsoever.

It's kinda funny, they try to make zelda look like a character who actually does something and the give her the most boring uninteresting voice ever instead of a strong and secure one.

Meant they not the.
polite sage because my autismo won't let me rest.

I want to cum inside link's boy puss.

Well I will say that the average gamer is dumb as bricks and has the memory and attention span of a goldfish. The kind of person who reads out loud.

But there are people who can enjoy a more cerebral approach to story telling in this entertainment form of ours. You just don't see them much in public.

Games are still too new to have any actual "enthusiasts" who aren't openly hyper-autists. It's a shame, give it 20 years and it might be better though.

Because having intense emotions in American media can be regarded as hammy. Therefore American voice actors often subdue the emotions in their role, leading to flat sounding performances. There's also the fact that some actors simply don't care and phone in a role just to get a paycheck.


Hearing Zelda's scream in the Japanese dub actually made me feel something, hearing her sob in the English dub gave me an uncanny valley effect because her sobs don't match the expression on her face. She looks like she's lost everything but sounds like she's just having a bad day in the English dub, it's a little unsettling.

The dialogue prior to Zelda having an emotional breakdown also has more of a quavering, sobbing timbre in the Japanese version, unlike the English version's flatter delivery.

They're all shit. Its just that you can only understand the english one.

...

Any chance for dual audio?

...

I really hope it has dual audio on the Wii U, I don't wanna buy a switch just to play the JP version.

...

I want to be a futa Zelda and cum inside links boypussy and then make him watch as I fuck the new red Zora princess.

You seriously gotta wonder what happened to get to this point. This wasn't really a problem until 2005ish.
If a movie like American Psycho were made today, Christian Bale's loud roar while he axes his co-worker in the face would be instead replaced by a quick yelp, and maybe some smartass comment.
Or imagine a movie like A Clockwork Orange where Alex is a modern "boring British man," and all of his orgasmic facial expressions are replaced with a nod and, "Yeah, I like that"

Are we in the middle of a cultural trend? Or is it the byproduct of a collective depression and development or lack thereof in our society? We've lost something that's supposed to be such a given that I don't even have a word for it. Maybe the best word would be "vibrance?" My best choice of words, but still doesn't quite come close.

If American Psycho were made today we wouldn't have Doubles

When did all these 4cucks start showing up?

Rhythm Heaven Megamix had dual audio pretty recently.

How about nah, they downgraded it and like any big time triple A game company they rather pay shills as their personal defense force rather than be good businessmen and actually make a legitimate good game.

Around 2014 or so

same issue with Disney fans, Disney fans think the company is the best thing to happen to animation despite the fact they've been stagnating the industry as a whole for the last 20 years offering no innovation to the medium or allowing anyone to make animated movies unless it fits their draconic laws on what is an allowed animated movie or not.

Calm down autismo

man you must get triggered when someone says hi to you in real life…sorry friendo.

I really don't think Nintendo has a comparable evil influence to Disney

So Cartoon Network then

Excellent counterpoint, you continue to demonstrate your lack of reading comprehension. Let's recap what happened one more time:

In terms of artstyle sure maybe but otherwise
It gives nintendrones even MORE of an insulting excuse to be even bigger shillholes and why people incite console wars

That's just a matter of perspective, personally I don't mind the voice. Actually fuck I'm glad they actually fucking finally gave the series voices.

Methinks it's just an exception, Ninty prob doesn't see much of an audience with them and thus aren't so willing to screw you over for money/

It keeps pissing me off to absolutely no end when a company gives empty promises. The fact No Man's Sky even exists is sheer (and recent) proof the AAA industry keeps doing these fucking demeaning ass practices

Why can't Custom Robo get this kind of update treatment?
don't fucking answer I already know

Actually I can understand the italian, latam spanish, the other spanish and nip one (on some parts) and I still consider them better to the english dub.

You didn't even have a point to begin with, fucking idiot. You simply regurgitated what that guy said, but in an overly exaggerated tone.

Been to reddit latelly, OP?
That was a serious question. I've been keeping an eye on reddit for the sole purpose of getting news earlier, as someone usually posts a new leak/news there pretty quick. But GODDAMN, is that place filled with fucking fanboys to the brim. For every thread of useful information, I must skim through 20 thread titles of stupid pointles "discussion"

Same user so far the nip, latam and italian dub are the ones I'm gonna try if I ever get the game, just hope Link doesnt get any dialog.

...

Not sure why you're so hostile anyway. My point was evident from what I said. The guy was arguing with nothing because he didn't read the OP well enough to realize he was agreeing with it. When he maintained his stance despite being corrected, I attempted to elucidate to him that he was persisting in his misconception. So how does any of that make me a "fucking idiot", and why do you even care enough to get so riled up about it?

I'm calling it right Now, this Link is the same Link from Ocarine of Time and Majora's Mask
Why else would the Deku tree recognize him?

It looks like The Witcher 2 graphically back when that came out, though it came at the expense of the framerate.

I believe other links also spoke to the deku tree. Wind Waker link sure did.

He also thought that he was the OOT's Link.

Was it ever confirm that the Deku Sprout was the Deku Tree in WW?

Wind Walker could be set further in the future
Breath of the Wild may take place before Hyrule is flooded.
Besides the OOT/MM link is the only who actually has a reason to wake up in a coffin
There is that whole theory that Link died at the start of MM and the whole game was either a dream or Link traped in limbo or something, maybe someone found his body and put him there to regenerate or resucitate or whatever for whenever Ganon showed his ugly kike nose again

What are the chances Todd codes Skyrim Portable Edition to zelda from running on that Switch because he's irate at anyone comparing BOTW to his magnum opus?

art style > gwafix

Are we able to start a non bait/shitpost OP discussion of the game, I've been watching some of the gameplay put out and there's a bunch of cool things I think I've noticed.

I think those giant robots like the bird the camel and the thing crawling around Death mountain which I think is a giant robotic Dodongo are dungeons.

It's all but stated to be the case in Wind Waker, OoT is the last Link chronologically and Wind Waker's Deku Tree mistakes him for OoT to the point he speaks ancient Hylian. It's pretty easy to recognize somebody who looks identical to their predecessor down to the last detail.

It looks nice, but everyone knows the best looking games are currently on the PS4.

...

it's certainly not about the graphics, because by now people have seen games like battlefield 1 or the witcher 3.
I think people enjoy the color palette and art style, very whimsical but still able to go PG13 dark. the people who call it "stunning" are probably fanboys. I'd say it's certainly pleasing to look at but nothing special.

Im probably going to enjoy it, but i would prefer either no VA or at least dual audio. Fucking put more effort into your voice acting nintendo. What the fuck.

Hair style and color aren't the same, he looks closer to ALTTP Link

God it's been so many years I'd completely forgotten about that "XXX" post-number stuff to try and curb dubsfaggotry back on 4/v/.

Nothing wrong with doubles

...

...

Back then it was bad enough you'd have like a quarter of the board completely flooded with retards fishing for dubs regardless of the thread's subject, nowadays there's a little more grace and decorum behind our spicy memes *censoring out the last three digits of a post-number worked for all of five seconds anyhow*

Isn't that just cuckchan being cuckchan though

Cuckchan being cuckchan at the time, yeah. I doubt it's regressed back to 2010 levels of dubspam since 2014 or so.

You do know TP Link is supposed to be the Hero of Time's descendant as in related by blood. That can't happen if OoT/MM Link dies before adulthood.
I fucking hate timeline talk because 99% of faggots don't know shit about it. Regardless of whether they like the timeline or not.

That and the Hero's shade is OOT Link..

Most people that believe that retarded theory use it as evidence so I didn't bring it up. Though they forget that Hero's Shade clearly has an adult's frame.

you are the cancer that's killing video games

...

It's canon m8 didn't you buy the official zelda lore book?

Not talking about the TP Link is OoT's descendant. The theory that Link died before Majora's Mask is, people claim the Hero's shad is him as a stalfos since that's what non-kokiri become when they get lost in the lost woods.

Pics related happened.
I think the word you're looking for is either passion, soul, or investment

That doesn't work on many levels. Who claims that shit clearly never read any of the Hero's Shade's dialogue.

babbys first movies :(

While a lot of Sith's problems stem from Lucas being a hack fraud, the actors tried to work with what they had. They had passion perhaps not talent, but the script was a soulless rag and probably limited the amount of investment the actors felt towards their roles.
I will agree that Batman Begins had a part in starting the trend among modern actors to reduce emotional performance and become more reserved and "mysterious" when in lead roles or even supporting roles.


Isn't almost all of his dialogue related to how he is filled with regret about having never passed on his techniques? It's been a few years since I played Twilight Princess.

Along with regret he wasn't remembered and that you aren't yet worthy to be his successor as the Hero, yeah.

...

fug off I haven't spoilered in months because there's rarely reason to post in this pit of internet politic proxy butthurt and faggot porn dumps

Since when did we get so many sony cuckolds on this site? What the fuck happened?

90% of the posts on Holla Forums are about PC games dumbass.

Dont pretend like you dont see all the PS4 and vita apologists. Probably are one yourself

What's it like living out your childhood on repeat with every generation of games, while your parents smiles slowly fade into expressions of disgust with every year that passes?

LGunpei Yokoi was probably the driving force behind doing more with less. It's why Nintendo was usually about going cheap with the hardware and trying to find ways to make old technology fun. Calculator tech became Game and Watch, NES was crunched into the Gameboy. DS was the first successful touch based game console and Wii was Bluetooth/IR tech. That was really Nintendo's strong point and while Nintendo still tries to operate with Gunpei's philosophy, they can't really duplicate the successes they had before for a variety of reasons.

I don't get it, how many fucking Zelda games can they make? At least Mario can be excused as a game you play with friends that has no set story and Pokémon is just Pokémon. Honestly regurgitating the same shit constantly is bullshit in my own opinion but at least I can get why people like those games but Zelda? I was a big fan growing up, but how many times can you play the same shit over and over again before getting bored finally? Go to dungeon, clear dungeon, beat boss, get weapon, go to next dungeon, repeat a dozen times, save princess from Ganon, land is saved, the end. Why? Only games that were actually unique in their mechanics were Windwaker, Minish, and Twilight to a certain extent. Majora and Ocarina as well but they're old and normalfag gaming 101 along with the mechanics being a gaming staple now for the most part. Even then, if you played one then you played them all. Other than that, why? What's the point? Honestly gaming in general is extremely goddamn stale but I just don't get this shit in my own opinion. Am I missing something here or what? Play the games you want, long as you have fun, but wouldn't it be more fun than playing a couple franchises over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again?

The aesthetic isn't even on point, looks like a turd floating in potato water.

...

is it just me, or does the game look better on the wii u?

I think the foliage and outdoors in general looks way better on the Switch, but I noticed some of the lighting seems to look better on Wii U

Both of those look like someone ate an ass, threw it up, ate it again, and then shat it out in an explosion of diarrhea.

...

I see you've taken the brown pill

I want to rape an organ.

Remember these are people who play on a console with 10 year old hardware.

Sophisticated taste

Really user? I who have been gaming since 1998 and HAVEN'T BOUGHT A SINGLE MAINSTREAM VIDEOGAME IN TWO YEARS is killing this industry? I don't even participate in this industry anymore.

I'll tell you what. There has always been story in videogames. Homeworld, Groundcontrol, C&C, Starcraft, Deus Ex. The trend of relying on multiplayer and making games for people with ADD is fairly recent.

No one can call themselves a fan unless they equip themselves with the ultimate canonical history book of Hyrule.

Looks that the color and bump textures are higher resolution on the Switch.

I'm definitely questioning the adequacy of the switch.
The Wii U's lighting looks a lot cleaner.
The switch might handle longer draw distances in the overworld, and more RAM + faster storage allows for better textures, but with the lighting more lacking, I wonder where else the system will struggle.

I like the formula and the new items in every game. Its kind of like saying "every mario game is the same so why play it?".

The argument has nothing to do with actual quality. It's just the fact that a Name can rake in millions of dollars because of nothing but the Name. The movie/game can be rehashed garbage and people will lap it up. Right now we are in the phase of >omg this game is going to be so good HYPE!!!
before the game is released. There was a reddit thread saying the cover is a work of art even though it's just Link standing on a rock in the center of the cover looking heroic facing away from the camera. The most generic cover you can imagine, yet it's "a work of art" because zelda.

However, Nintendo releases actually finished games, so they can keep shoveling out mediocrity and people will praise it. I don't hate Nintendo nearly as much as other AAA publishers/devs that chop their games down to broken rip-off DLC shillware.

BotW will be a functional Zelda game that is nothing special. Will sell millions of copies though and there is nothing we can do about it. At least the reddit thread had some highly voted comments calling out the bullshit praise for shit cover art. We need about 3 more years of garbage games to really swing the normalfag votes. They are seeing the light a bit right now, but they aren't jaded enough yet to hate games like Holla Forums does. We need more No Man's Sky blunders to save the industry.

The graphics look pretty good, nothing to phone home about.

The animations and gameplay, however, look amazing compared to the generic RPGs we've been getting for the past decade.

Name the last game that allowed you to shoot an enemy in their leg and they stop running, or in the arm and they can't attack as easily.

It might not be GOAT 11/10 material, but it's certainly a step up from the generic shit I've seen recently, so people must just be comparing it to recent releases, not overall releases.

Nintendo has one small advantage.

NO COMPETITION.

People buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games and that's pretty much all there is on the system. There's no other JRPG/adventure game on the Switch to steal Zelda's thunder.

Its basically MGS2: zelda edition.

Fallout New Vegas.

Goldeneye

That English VA is SHIT god if that is only tip of what is to come to the english version holy shit it sounds like it got fucking raped to all hells

I'm sure there's some reason, although I can't quite put my finger on it.

at least spoiler your disgusting fetish you fucking degenerate
