[It's Reyn Time!]

Is it just me or do you catch a glimpse of the Deku tree's jaw moving? Is that who's asking if Link remembers him? Pretty huge implications if so.

 

[jasminlovesyoux]

Man, I can't believe Horizon and this game are going to be releasing within three days of each other. I will be in beautiful open world nature RPG heaven.

This is actually stressing me out. I need waaaaaaaaaay more time inbetween. DONT MAKE ME CHOOSE

 

[Firemind]

Not picking on you. I've played all the games that have what is considered amazing voice acting uncharted 4, portal 2, witcher 3, etc. and I don't think think this VO sounds bad at all. What I'm saying is I am glad I am unable to spot bad VO.

zelda sounds like a thirty five year old woman

I'm surprised people didn't notice this.

 

[ChimpBottle]

Okay, you guys are absolutely allowed to shut down this theory with your superior knowledge, but hear me out.

So the last two shots that show after the title are a blonde lady (looked different from Zelda to me personally) looking up at the Deku Tree and Link opening his eyes.

What if that's OoT Link's mom when she gave him up to the Deku Tree? I can't think of another reason as to why they would think that's a significant enough moment to save for after the title is shown.

 

[nextgeneration]

Incredible trailer. Switch graphics are better than I expected, which pleases me.

 

[whyamihere]

I feel this:

Jesus, no.

 

[OverturePT]

Yea, I never thought otherwise.

Gotta say, this is one of my favorite trailers ever, as it kept going my smile kept going wider and wider. Bravo to whoever put this together.

 

[13ruce]

I'm surprised people didn't notice this.

My bet: OoT link in fallen hero timeline

 

[Nia]

I just got over a battle with Pneumonia. I can't be crying right now. Nintendo damn it.

 

[MartyStu]

While there may be towns they still might be soulless and empty. FFXV comes to mind ...

I think the Zelda dungeons will great.

It's just sad that nearly every open world is just there for having open world.

To be fair, Witcher 3 was open world just for the sake of it and CDPR nailed it on their first try. Nintendo should be able do to so as well.

 

[sanstesy]

So is it 1080p? Do we have any official screenshots released?

 

[vivekTO]

Goty , imho this all the y need for launch!!

 

[fokkusu]

Looks super awesome!

Thanks Nintendo!

Should finish now the unfinished Skyward Sword

 

[Hero of Time]

Incredible trailer. So excited it's releasing so soon.

Is it just me or do you catch a glimpse of the Deku tree's jaw moving? Is that who's asking if Link remembers him? Pretty huge implications if so.

I thought the same, couldn't this imply this is a sequel to ocarina of time/majoras mask?

 

[Luigiv]

So is it 1080p? Do we have any official screenshots released?

Looks like it from the trailer. At the very least it's much better than 720p. But yeah, we'll have to wait for screens for the moment of truth.

 

[Pancake Mix]

Was not expecting this kind of stuff in the trailer.

Going to be a bit more intense than other Zelda titles.

 

[Dynasty8]

So just confirming...worldwide release for Zelda on March 3rd?

 

[Shadowplay1979]

I havnt owned a console since Ps2 and Wii...has Nintendo been good since then with including J-audio options because i perferred the japanese commercial audio.

I cant believe ima have to pick up a Switch for this....everything else looked bad...even mario. This looked so good though...blehhhhhhhh

 

[Akainu]

SS Zelda with the weird ass nose is still worse.

I liked her nose. Kind of reminds me of nico robin. Horrible game though.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

So after ocarina of time, in timeline where hero was defeated? Deku tree seems to show it

 

[SolidSnakex]

are there no direct-feed screenshots in sight? wtf

They released a bunch of screens, but they're all from parts of the trailer

[Shadowplay1979]

This is what got me too...Zelda seemed to have so much character. Im so glad they went with a more story driven game instead of the "choose your own link" people were clamoring for last year

 

[TissueBox]

Holy sh*t that second half of the trailer transformed it into something amazing.

This is gonna be a special kind o' Zelda alright.

Still will reserve thoughts about the...more unique features. But on the other side I'm still loving the kinetic action-style aesthetic of the gameplay beats. Looks like a very trendy reskin and a very fun one at that, can't wait.

As for the cinematic approach I do have one quick thing, that being I got sparse Ghibli/Mononoke-esque flashes at the perceived tone and themes. If this game could evoke at least part of that, my beating heart may not go still. *chokes on half-swallowed pizza*

 

[DrunkShogun]

Nintendo seemed to have embrace the link zelda relationship being more than just royalty and solider working together. Hope it's oot link but looks good either way. Seems we got flashbacks song so hope zelda isn't relegated to just flashbacks. Still not unsure if to preorder now or wait for a few more games to be released down the line.

 

[Persona7]

Better lock my Wii U copy in in case they decide to print very few.

 

[taoofjord]

Awesome trailer. Still concerned about the lack of focus on dense indoor areas and towns. Also, that voice acting stinks so I hope we can switch it to the usual voice effects (or at least to the Japanese audio track).

 

[Kamek]

The Japanese voices gave me chills. Not feeling the English dub at all, and I'm usually not a stickler for that. I loved the Xenoblade dub. Thought NoA would have a similar good group do it.

 

[sanstesy]

They released a bunch of screens, but they're all from parts of the trailer

Um, if these aren't bullshots the IQ looks way better than expected. Holy shit.

 

[Bakkus]

Well that seals it, I'm Switching at launch. Anything to get the definitive version of the game. Can't cope with the Wii U version which seems to run like absolute crap.

 

[Da-Kid]

Beautiful.

 

[Wishmaster92]

dem lips

reminds me of this

 

[brandonh83]

I love Zelda's design.

 

[Pilgrimzero]

Zeldas VA is awful. The rest looked amazing!

 

[Caelus]

Link looks so much better than Skyward Sword Link it's not even funny.

Sometimes I wonder how SS and this game had around the same amount of development time. Then I remember motion controls.

 

[Nickle]

If this was called the Legend of Belda no one would care, amirite.

 

[Jarmel]

Probably my least favorite design of Zelda ever.

 

[DangerMouse]

I can't believe we all thought we were getting a female playable character after that androgynous Linka was shown in the first 2014 trailer along with Aonuma's dumb ol' "who says that was Link?" comments.

Nope. Link. Zelda. Ganon.

But now you have to wait a while to get the green hat.

Baby steps, nahhh. These are prenatal kicks.

Yeah, the dropoff is just massive. From fan theories like that to her portrayal in this trailer damsel in distress style (and that save her line). This Zelda seems awful. Her design also looks better in art, I don't really like her in-game design in those screens/trailer.
Link's design is good though.

 

[OverturePT]

I really like her design...

 

[Metroidvania]

Yeah, the dropoff is just massive. From fan theories like that to her portray in this trailer. This Zelda seems awful. Her design also looks better in art, I don't really like her in-game design in those screens/trailer.

All we can hope for is that she rises well above how she's portrayed in the trailers

And to be fair, she probably (hopefully, at least?) will.

 

[Fou-Lu]

What if this takes place in the Fallen Hero timeline and Link didn't die just got out into stasis somehow?

Spoiler

Just a gibberish theory probably already mentioned that only holds up if you don't think about it, but would be cool to play as OoT Link again.

 

[Oblivion]

Holy shit. Now THAT'S a fucking trailer, unlike the previous two messes Nintendo dumped.

The music was amazing! Which probably means it won't be in the game. ;/

Nice to see new locales and enemies, nearly all of which look great.

My two only gripes are that Zelda's VA sounds terrible and she still retains that dumb haircut from SS.

Other than that, though, totally hyped!

 

[eXistor]

One of the best trailers I've ever seen, tears in my eyes people, tears in my eyes.

Doesn't account for the Koroks does it? Would have to be way longer than 100 years.

 

[EDarkness]

I have to admit, that is an awesome trailer. I wasn't all that hyped, but after watching that trailer, I might have to pick this up on launch day. We'll see.

 

[PancakeBurglar]

I love the Zelda design. The Goron and Zora look great too. Also put me in the group that likes the English Dub.

 

[AniHawk]

i never do this, but i think if there's the option, i might go with subs. sort of maintains that mystical flavor of me not understanding the language versus just plain ol english.

 

[The_Afroman]

any info on this?!

 

[wmlk]

Yeah, the moments shown in the trailer looked terrific. I'm still skeptical with the gameplay, though. Not sure how fun it will remain for how long with those large maps.
