Oh my god this gender talk is really getting tiring. It doesn't even matter!
The only solid 'proof' we have is that Link has been referred to as 'he' by Miyamoto & Aonuma. Of course that doesn't even mean anything if they are trying to hide this apparent 'big reveal' of a female Link or gender select option. Link's styling seen in Zelda U footage/artwork sure is androgynous, but that doesn't mean anything.
Also we have already seen towers in this game.

Will hold off for the NX version... those concepts look amazing, unfortunately that's not the art style of the game which seems like a weird mix of simple colors celshaded grass and trees and really noisy normal mapped rocks/enemies.
Edit: Link is cell shaded and simple and easy to read, the enemy they showed off is super noisy and jarring. Almost like a different type of art style.

Why's everyone so excited for this single piece of artwork? Looks ok I guess but it's not even gameplay shot. Nothing to write home about.

I'm digging the shift from watercolor to a more oil paint type style in these promo images. Can't wait to see more!

Nah, it's just sunset. The new artwork looks like views from TGA 2015 demo.

Rock climbing?
Between Rise of the Tomb Raider and Uncharted 4, I think I've had my fill of rock climbing.

Looks like Link climbing a mountain? Why so excited about that?
I've had my fill of shitty climbing from those games, but this could potentially have good gameplay
Yep, it's been ages since the last mainline one.

The game was announced at 2014 (and hinted at in 2013), and yet we've seen only two pieces of artwork and two (one and a half?) short videos before this day. Oh, and there is an info blowout in two days.
People are thriving for any information.

You guys do realize that this is promo art and not actual in-game graphics right?

It showcases the potential gameplay in the game. Like, if the shot is indicative of what the player can accomplish, you'll be able to actually scale mountains, and that's awesome.

Rly thnx dude 4 teh headz up
Would make sense, the world is huge so it will have to have some kinda fast travel points

of course? People always go crazy with speculation whenever art from an upcoming Zelda game is released.

Well, like I said, this is Zelda. A new entry in this franchise is going to be far more hyped than most other big releases.
And rightfully so, of course.

Umm ...where have you been the last 18 months?
We saw those towers at The Game Awards lol.
pinkurocket
Member
Possibly, but if they were trying to hide something you would think they would take note of that, no? I mean in the Game Awards gameplay video.

I've seen enough of the overworld, I'm more anxious to see what the town(s) look like. The Kakariko Village theme should be really nice in this one if it the OST is fully orchestrated again.

Good call. They could very well be related to fast travel, like those signs in The Witcher 3, or the Xenoblade/Xenoblade X probes and points of interest. So maybe they could even be related to discovering portions of the map, who knows, but i doubt it would be used in the same way as AC/FC because i don't see Zelda going in the direction of hundreds of mini-objectives. Again, showing some point of interest on the map like Xenoblade (maybe with its own twist) seems more likely.
Has http://e3.nintendo.com/ updated? There's just a flashing emblem now...

Why do people keep saying this? Can we be excited and happy for once in our lives?

I mean it feels like with the knowledge you obviously have that it's a picture of the oft-delayed, much anticipated latest installment of one of the biggest series in gaming that you're just being deliberately ignorant.

I also find this odd, because its not like Ubisoft Collectathons don't have their good points. The mystery quests in AC:Unity come to mind as some satisfying stuff. The issue is that there's usually a lot of irrelevant chaff that exists for its own sake rather than for the sake of anything else, which was something they solved in AC2 but made into an issue over sequel bloat.
That being said, I expect an advancement on the upgrades in Skyward Sword so some more collectables are to be expected this time. But I think the dungeons would add to that system.
Oh man, if they could build on Skyward Sword, that would be great. Not for everyone, of course, but screw everyone.
I'm just worried that it'll be another Twilight Princess, where it attempts to appeal to American tastes and subsequently bores the snot out of me.
Odds are high that he will, but honestly I would be more than fine if they started to move away from that. Maybe make it an optional outfit people can obtain, but there's not reason to have link wear the same outfit in every game.
