Did they just confirm Fuyabashi is directing?

 

[CharminUltra]

Haha that wind. EVERYTHING'S ON FIRE

 

[thecouncil]

That was awesome with the wind carrying sticks through the fire and setting grass on fire in a long line.

 

[Chaos17]

Chiko using the wind to setup fire to an enemy house, savage XD

 

[Morfeo]

I guess that's true. I consider Minish Cap and ALBW traditional Zelda games.

They are traditional 2D Zelda-games for sure. Especially MInish Cap. Both are amazing though. I feel like I am one of the few people that actually love both the traditional 2D Zelda-game AND the traditional 3D Zelda-game

Spoiler

Zelda 2 is still the best though.

What is the second round icon besides the map at the bottom with the waves in it...?

 

[Ashodin]

This game looks ABSOLUTELY INSANE. ZELDA IS BACK BABY

Sound radar. Probably shows yo hidden stuff with the Slate.

 

[Aaronrules380]

Kind of says something that a completely baseless rumor started by one guy with no source was believed by so many

 

[Cave Johnson]

We got some far cry 2 Pyro action in Zelda. And its dictated by WIND physics. Did Euphoria even go that far?

 

[oti]

what if you have to travel in time in order to visit the villages before they became ruins?

 

[Plum]

Wind-based fire systems. They've done it.

 

[Anarky]

This really is unacceptable. My blood is boiling.

No towns? That's not a stylistic decision. That's because Nintendo has to meet a deadline at this point.

4 dungeons? This game will probably be over in 6 hours.

No overworld music? I play these games for the music. So that it can fill my soul and make me a better adventurer. If I wanted to hear bug and bird noises, I'd go outside to hear that shit! Play the music, for Christ's sake!

I'm really tired of all Nintendo's bullshit. They just don't "get it".

Can't tell if joke post or if this thread is just going downhill.

 

[chadboban]

That fire wind part deserves a gif. Really nice stuff.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

lol shirtless link with a big ass axe running through the forest. who can hate this

All I'm thinking is how many mosquito bites and ticks he's going to wind up with.

 

[Altazor]

What is the second round icon besides the map at the bottom with the waves in it...?

noise meter, it's useful for stealth.

 

[Ansatz]

4 dungeons? What?

Watch the mini dungeons called shrines they showed earlier on the stream, one had obstacles designed around magnetism and one was based on using bombs in different ways.

I think of it as taking the substance from the main dungeons and spreading them out evenly throughout the world in the form of smaller dungeons. I'm completely fine with this given the two we saw were entry level and the complexity ramps up nicely from there.

Ah okay,cool thanks.

 

[Madnesslink5]

Noise scale that links me. Used for sneaking/stealth

 

[random25]

Someone gif that fire wind action! Shit I'm still awake lol.

 

[Coketruck]

What is the second round icon besides the map at the bottom with the waves in it...?

Temperature icon. Measures how cold or hot the environment is. If Link's not properly equipped and goes some place where the temp is too extreme, he'll take damage.

EDIT: Nevermind, misread your comment and thought you were talking about the other icon.

 

[Plum]

Sound icon for stealth.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

To be honest, I expected meltdowns because New Zelda wasn't going to please everybody.


But it seems to be more positive then bad, Most people that I see disappointed seem to have had too high expectations.

But props for really breaking conventions of Zelda.

Whether it ends up being good or bad, Zelda needed this.

 

[Ashodin]

holy shit the arrow count is on the targeting reticle, so genius

 

[Blunoise]

Y'all making excuses for no towns is ridiculous, the one thing i hated in skyward sword a small city hub only. Im getting the game, but Nintendo really need to keep up there game design with the times, Horizon looks to be more of a next gen Zelda game but whatever yall will just get mad at my response and ignore the fact that Nintendo can never have design flaws or that this game is perfect in anyway.

 

[VariantX]

FIRE IS THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING.

It displays how much noise you are making. So you can adjust to sneak attack etc.

 

[Ryoku]

Yay! The thread is back!

I'm still holding onto the notion that towns will be accessible through a sort of time-warping, where you will warp the area where the town is supposed to be in the past.

 

[udivision]

Why is that stone there?

 

[(mat)]

I can't believe nude Link will fight Calamine Ganon in the nude. There isn't even anything in this big open field to talk to. What am I supposed to do? There isn't even female link. He's so feminine. Why is this game such a clusterfuck? Nintendo has run out of ideas. Way to go Nintendo, you screwed it up again. RIP.

 

[Ricker]

Lol ok, all kinds of things then I guess...

 

[Bots are better than you]

what if you have to travel in time in order to visit the villages before they became ruins?

If i got the plot details correct (jumped to conclusions) then this is the Hero of Time Link, so Time Travel might happen, Tempel of Time is there too.

Remember Wind Waker "The hero never returned" and Ganon won, so there's imo a fair chance that this is in fact OoT Link.

 

[B-Dubs]

Some of these "combat strategies" are borderline sociopathic, this is hilarious.

Yea, this game is going to be amazing.

 

[Ashodin]

The terrain is so soft, I bet it was created with voxels.

Aounuma was misquoted, he was stating there are no towns in the E3 demo, not that there are no towns/villages in the game at all. They're not showing them in the E3 demo because apparently they are tied to story elements and they do not want to spoil any story elements or... even any story at all.

 

[Brinbe]

very cool

 

[CrisKre]

The wind making the fire spread on the wilderness is just too much. Game of the forever.

 

[Emperor Hol Horse]

Can't tell if joke post or if this thread is just going downhill.

Read the music part again. He is definitely being sarcastic.

 

[Ricker]

Yeah that would surprise me...

 

[Aselith]

Bomb em all and let god sort em out

 

[Matbtz]

Anyone has any sources about the "no towns" ? I will not believe it without a concrete interview from a dev.

 

[DashReindeer]

The line to play this game is insane. I haven't seen a line this long at E3 on years. Got pretty close to the front and it still feels hours away. They are having to schedule times for people to come back because this line is too nuts.

 

[Hermii]

What is the source of 4 dungeons? Unless its Aonuma or Miyamoto I dont believe it.

 

[Crayolan]

Big blue pig Ganon please, none of this Ganondorf bullshit.

With all the Zelda 1 inspirations I wouldn't be surprised.

 

[selo]

Game looks good, but the 'Wild' looks kind of devoid of life :O

 

[Calm Mind]

Anyone have any idea what the "sound meter" down to the right would be for? Stealth element?

That is exactly its purpose.

How are people feeling the game?

 

[Blunoise]

Aounuma was misquoted, he was stating there are no towns in the E3 demo, not that there are no towns in the game at all.

are we sure? because please

 

[Kevtones]

So THERE ARE villages?



Everything is just so interactive and just so... Nintendo. LOVE IT.

 

[DragonSworne]

People are confusing the 4 shrines as 4 dungeons.

 

[Kadin]

"different types of vehicles" ??
