Yes, there is a full environment temperature system AND Audio system that reacts to footsteps on surfaces.
All these old systems that were long abandoned are returning in glorious fashion.

This is so in depth yet easy to use and makes sense. So good.

If they plan to have their own show to launch NX, I'm not sure what else their options were. I don't believe that only 9 months out from launch, NX games are in an un-demo-able state, so they must be holding off for a special event. That being the case, it makes sense to focus on Zelda.
I had to come back and watch more.
And I see they made a potion that allows you to restore your stamina in the moment. Who else is going to see if they can just load up on those and climb the highest mountain in one go?
10/10

I'm surprised people would call this world gamey. I haven't played Witcher or anything like that so I can't compare, so maybe people are just talking about item usage and things like that. But the world itself seems to be structured to mimic a more realistic style, especially in how the different areas gradually give way into something else entirely.
The forest areas, huge cliffsides, expansive views, long paths. It's very evocative and certainly accomplishes what they set out to in capturing the feeling of that old Zelda art. But I don't think it's actually that interesting from a visual or gameplay standpoint.
I think in the Iwata asks about OOT 3D and they talked about designing interesting spaces in 3D. And when you look at the Zora's River section and its tangled passageways, or Death Mountain's trail and its switchbacks giving way to the final ascent up the mountain, and certainly the open layout of Gerudo's Fortress or Kakariko. And each of those areas had a particular gameplay focus and were fairly small in scope which made them all so distinct. I just find that so much more interesting than the more realistic approach they're taking in this particular world.
And because of the world's size everything ends up being so diffuse. Fighting enemies looks fun (though for some reason it seems slower than past games), but a lot of times you're just running. With nothing immediate in sight.
I wish they had tried to realize the open world structure without necessarily abandoning the level design concepts of the earlier games.

Not dungeons, but they've shown I think 3 shrines so far.
I wonder if they're hiding things. Maybe one of those elixers turns him in a girl or something.

They are avoiding story Spoilers, so no. They are only showing shrines, they are actually pretty good for shrines

Well, slaughtering animals doesn't feel very Zelda. But whatever, as long as I can go through a veg route it's fine.
No, it was confirmed that Link is only a guy.

Great point.
I'm glad they weren't afraid to change thing up from the classic formula, take inspiration from other modern games, and give it all a unique Zelda twist.
Even with mechanics I've seen done before, they do some really great things with them that make them their own. Aonuma must have had a blast making this game.

Breaking conventions again. Bombs are better then rods
You know that they're barely showed 1% of the landscape of the whole world.
Also we're all in love here with the gameplay, the world could be better yet but we're going to have so much fun.
Like doing bomb fishing! XD
So seriously landscape come in second for me here. Gameplay first.
