I love it! Nintendo persuade me again to buy a console again.

 

[TI82]

Apparently he said there were no towns to be shown at e3, not the game.

Okay that's more than fine

 

[Octavianus]

I like how something being game-y is used as a criticism for games these days.

No really, it's awesome.

 

[brandonh83]

This game is exactly why I don't give one fuck about hardware specs.

 

[Pandy]

Would love to see a hard combat...everything looks so easy to kill so far...(I know its early)...

There was a machine earlier with 500hp that could 1 shot (or 2 shot if you'd used a healing item early) Link, I think Chico the Destroyer got it down to about 440hp before she was wiped out. I think it was at 480hp after two bomb arrows.

How long is left until the "beyond the plateau" section starts?

 

[Dark Cloud]

It literally takes more time to write a post than read the thread, let alone the last 4 or 5 posts, how difficult is it?

Whatever dude. I can't keep up with all the info. I was just asking nicely. No need to be rude.

 

[KingBroly]

So Link can die from hypothermia now. Neat.

 

[Crayolan]

A) I have a feeling it won't change going by the low initial and even lower later difficulty in the other 3D Zeldas, but even if it did, I feel they should have taken a page out of the Souls games' book imo and make the opening areas challenging as well so that you will feel relieved when you increase your hearts or gear (like in the old games as well) and feel far more powerful when you return later and plough through them.

They showed a Guardian earlier (the big enemy from the initial E3 2014 reveal) and its laser did 6.5 hearts of damage. It was in the first area of the game.

I'm sure already answered, but who is the American woman in the blue top?

Samantha Robertson from the Treehouse team at Nintendo of America.

Haha, exactly. What should a game be if not game-y?

 

[Exile20]

The world seems so static and game-y. Like, I don't really believe the world is real. There doesn't seem to be any locations with any deep history or lore attached to them. Everything just seems to be there for gameplay purposes and that's it. It all looks too basic and feels all child-friendly. Like it's just a big playground with no lore or narrative to join anything together.

You are only seeing less than 1% of the whole game. Chill and enjoy the game.

If this game doesn't have something that I would call a "town", then I'm not buying it. And, no, a village doesn't count. I'm looking for at least 3 distinct building types.

They confirmed for ign that there are towns and villages but they aren't going to show any because they are tied to story.

 

[BrickArmour]

This has probably been asked before... but it looks to me as though the colors are washed out... like everything is in a fog or something. Perhaps it is the stream or my monitor. Does it look that way to others? Is the game fairly vibrant in the color palette?

 

[megasus]

Could someone post the schedule again?

 

[Kadin]

With the proper talent, raw power is nowhere near as necessary as some might think. And I completely agree.

Lol, someone has to gif Link getting stripped of his shirt in the snowy area, and then shivering. That was so cruel, and yet so hysterical!

Stream quality sucks.

 

[Hermii]

No one's confusing anything. I'll recap again.

Last week, in a GameXplain Zelda E3 predictions video, Andre decided to bring up a rumor he heard from a reliable source. Said source said the following to him:

-There would be four main dungeons
-There would be 100 mini-dungeons (the Shrines we just got confirmed today)
-There would be a fantasy vs. technology theme (not unsurprising given what we already saw but that was part of the rumor).

With the 100 Shrines part confirmed, people are assuming that means the 4 main dungeons part of the rumor is true as well. But it's not official, I stress again, it's not official.

Here's a link to said insanely long video, he talks about this rumor around 30 minutes into it

Ok then. I choose to believe its bullshit as of now.

 

[boxter432]

bwaha, just turned on stream for first time...to see Link running up a snowy mtn, away from an ice keese of some sort, then facing him, and whacking it with a big ass deku leaf.

 

[Altazor]

Why are they still putting snowy lands near deserts?

you know that could happen (and sometimes, does happen) in real life, right?

 

[Octavianus]

This is the game of e3 2016 for me.

The snow doesn't look especially snowy, I hope they improve the aesthetics of that a bit. I love that you can just scale mountains like that though.

The snow areas are a bit foggy like that, but the rest has looked fine to me.

Good. I hate this lore crap that has infected everything. We don't need this to be Dark Souls where every rock must have a deep story behind it.

This E3 has been good to me so far. Crash and Zelda, all I needed.

Holy hell. But, then again, it is a Zelda game.

Wait, was that someone in a Persona 5 Morgana yukata?

 

[Flare]

The next part of the stream involved going beyond the plateau right?

I'm so fucking excited for this game.

 

[AdanVC]

Show floor scenery looks amaaaaaaaazing! Wish I could be there :'(

 

[Calm Mind]

Even though this is just a very small portion of the game, what I have seen so far is the most ambitious gameplay I have seen from Nintendo in quite some time.
