Whats even the point of having the twitch chat active with that many viewers.

Atleast I got a reason now for keeping my Wii U. This game looks really fun to chill around in.

 

[sdornan]

Cooking gives you upgraded yellow hearts!

Reminds me of food in MMOs.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Crazy that all they are doing has nothing with the story to do.

It's all side quest stuff and exploring.

This game is huge.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Chiko's a savage, I fear for her exboyfriends.

 

[FreedomFighter]

Someone said they saw a rupee counter in the inventory screens.

I'm still waiting to see a stats screen.

 

[Illucio]

Not really one for open world designed games, but Zelda definitely looks pretty fun. I missed most of the stream, but will we be able to get geared up as the game goes on?

I really enjoy how open it is so far and all the unique ways to do things. But I feel like nothing is really being accomplished and there is literally no story really being shared which is bothering me the wrong way.
We haven't even seen a single ruppee so I guess towns and shops are no longer a thing either :/

I like what Nintendo has been doing with the overworld, being able to jump and climb, and the open endedness in what you can do. But damm this game feels empty, if I played this game for a day I'd literally feel like nothing was accomplished, even if I did 10 shrines and found a super strong weapon.

edit:

there's a mute button..

I want to hear the game tho.

 

[Beats]

Looks like a temporary buff in max hearts from the kebab she ate earlier.

They're temporary, granted by the food.

Ah okay. I think I just missed that.

 

[Real Hero]

I can't believe I was worried about zelda not being amazing

 

[Instro]

I don't really need more bosses. Just memorable ones. 8-10 are more than enough, even if this is a 50-100 hour game, as long as each one bookends a major dungeon that feels really unique and special.

Well yes 8-10 is fine by me, I just meant in that sense that if the rumor about there being 4 major dungeons, that I would still like more bosses than 4.

 

[jonjonaug]

Bomb arrows!

 

[Interceptor]

This has to be the worst live presentation i have seen on any E3. Previous treehouse streams were so great, now we have annoying random babbling combined with annoying random gameplay.

 

[RobotVM]

Chiko's a savage, I fear for her exboyfriends.

So far she has been my favorite person playing.

 

[CNCOMICS]

 

[jblank83]

What the hell is up with Nintendo's stream and the framerate though?

Maybe it's because there are 150k people watching.

 

[EndlessSky]

I'm not sure I've seen any Rupees at all yet, nor does there seem to be a counter/wallet on screen.

There is a rupee counter on top right of start screen. No rupees found yet afaik tho

 

[MoonFrog]

Hope this 4 dungeon talk is false, especially with the world being this big. The open world stuff looks okay, but they've yet to show me why I'm going to keep at it. Maybe 4 dungeons you return to and chip away at over time? I'm reaching lol. But hope it's false. I play Zelda for the dungeons.

 

[Akhe]

I want to see it on NX.

@Nimbus That "on my" caused a double meaning but let's turn the page.

 

[duckroll]

Well yes 8-10 is fine by me, I just meant in that sense that if the rumor about there being 4 major dungeons, that I would still like more bosses than 4.

Yeah I haven't heard that rumor. I... can't see it being true. That would be super disappointing.

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

There is a rupee counter on top right of start screen. No rupees found yet afaik tho

Probably not in the demo since there wouldn't be a use for them.

 

[TI82]

This has to be the worst live presentation i have seen on any E3. Previous treehouse streams were so great, now we have annoying random babbling combined with annoying random gameplay.

I miss the days where Nintendo was actually at e3 and not this twitch stream crap

 

[Shaanyboi]

This is legitimately the Zelda RPG I've wanted for fucking ever. I mean we still have yet to see what sidequests or NPC interaction looks like, but... I mean... fuck dude. This looks great.

 

[sora87]

Yeahhh nintendo should go ahead and disable that chat

 

[Japanmanx3]

Explaining the audio meter! Stealth yes!!!

 

[Brinbe]

very cool

so many great mechanics

 

[RobotVM]

Metal Gear Zelda: Breath of the Wild edition.

 

[Pandy]

Game of the Show.

Agreed. Though it would almost have been a disappointment if it hadn't been.

 

[DarthButcher]

Someone in the last thread thought the sound waves were indication of the mic. It appears they were wrong.

 

[Luigi87]

I love that you can crouch now, but why can't Zelda crawl?

Spoiler

/s

 

[StreetsAhead]

4 dungeons? What? No way. What is this, Wind Waker 2?

Koroks + Old Man who looks like WW's King of Hyrule suggests actually, it may be "Wind Waker 2"

 

[Busaiku]

Poor Bokoblins...

 

[Kurdel]

Yeahhh nintendo should go ahead and disable that chat

They must be used to it by now

 

[Laevateinn]

I love that there's going to be sneaking.

 

[Labrynian Rebel]

Chiko's back. BURNINATION CONFIRMED!

[Agent713]

Chiko is an absolute savage and a pyromaniac. I love her already. Nintendo needs to keep her forever.

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Agreed. Though it would almost have been a disappointment if it hadn't been.

Yup

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

Yeahhh nintendo should go ahead and disable that chat

Twitch is always like that though. It sickens me.

 

[aBarreras]

I miss the days where Nintendo was actually at e3 and not this twitch stream crap

well, they are at E3, like literally at E3, and dont, these streams are great

 

[Caelus]

But I feel like nothing is really being accomplished and there is literally no story really being shared which is bothering me the wrong way.
We haven't even seen a single ruppee so I guess towns and shops are no longer a thing either :

They specifically said they didn't want to spoil story or additional info, we have literally a year left. You'd need towns and cities to store, upgrade or sell equipment anyway.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Without saying it, the plateau area is basically the beginning area, with some very high level enemies sprinkled about, which is alot like xenoblade

 

[bachikarn]

It is somewhat interesting to me that they still only have 3 base hearts. Wonder if there won't be that many heart containers in the game?

 

[VendettaRed07]

And people were worried they'd spoil the whole game by playing it for so long. They've barely scratched the surface of anything lol

 

[John Kowalski]

hum looked like the monsters were trying to sneak around the grass too? that would be cool

 

[RootCause]

Asking here since other thread is slow.
Do chest change appearance based on rare level? We've seen wooden, and ones that were golden, and silver.

 

[serenewarfare]

This game feels like a complex and thoughtful RPG, but also with the same care and attention to detail as Nintendo often provides. It's a perfect blend.

 

[TheSlySoul]

There is a rupee counter on top right of start screen. No rupees found yet afaik tho

Perhaps the only way you can get them is selling items in shops?
Would be neat.

 

[DarthButcher]

Queen Chiko, First of Her Name, The Unburnt, Destroyer of Bokoblins

 

[RPGCrazied]

Yeah, inventory limit is lame. Sorry.

 

[jblank83]

Chiko is an absolute savage and a pyromaniac. I love her already. Nintendo needs to keep her forever.

She's really good, very funny.

 

[Fou-Lu]

Think I will be playing some Zelda later today. Head back to my almost complete Minish Cap or Oracles of Ages save files or start a new game in WWHD, TPHD or MM3D?

 

[Ensirius]

This is gonna make me buy NX isn't it? Yes it is.
