So excited. Like some other users mentioned here, I hope they make the enemies & environment feel dangerous. Still, I already saw 5 different weapons (Spear, Regular Sword, Curved Sword, Bow & Arrow, Axe). Hope they keep exploring more combat options.

I'm already sold though, can´t wait to see more.

 

[Katze mit Hut]

OoT was one of the most intense gaming XP i ever had. MM was superb as well.

I wonder why knew 3D-entries don´t click for me.

Trailer doesn´t provide interest and hype as i wanted it to.

I´m getting old or something.

 

[Magic Mushroom]

Please don't fill the map with icons. This looks like Shadow of the Colossus. That's PRECISELY what I wanted.

Yes, too many busy open worlds as it is.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I hate how empty it is.

It being Wyoming.

 

[MiamiWesker]

AMAZING! What a world. Looks like it has tons of gameplay mechanics. Link has a magnet which can levitate metal. He has an ice rod. He seems to change clothes. Has different weapons. So awesome.

 

[Tritroid]

At :35 and 1:25- Temple of Time ruins?

Looks almost identical to how it did in OoT.

 

[Astral Dog]

Wind Waker is 60fps on Wii U. Not sure why what we have seen here seems impossible in 60fps on Wii U ? I mean, look at Bayonetta 2. Much more going on on screen, and still 60fps.

No, its not, and Bayonetta is more like 45fps

 

[AcademicSaucer]

I have a hard time believing this is running on the Wii U.

look at the textures, thats Wii U

 

[Tuck]

The trailer has a few weird editing issues, but aside from that the game looks pretty. I share concerns about the open world but we'll see how it goes and what they do with it.

Looks like this Hyrule is either very far in the past or very far in the future?

Link wears armour at one point. So... no green tunic? Not that I'm complaining - the blue tunic shown so far looks great.

 

[Arkanius]

Can't agree with this at all. It's exactly the opposite for me.

Pretty sure this game will be a fresh breath on open world games.

But I don't doubt that at all. I can't wait to see Nintendo's take on it. It's going to be Day 1 to me. But the trailer showed a lot of empty areas with low poly geometry and vast spaces with barely any NPC or other environmental detail. It's all very pretty, but it feels all very designed around the hardware limitations.

Can't wait to replay this in a few years on the WiiU emulator with a bigger resolution as well.

 

[cireza]

No it's not.

I will believe you. So I hope that it will be at least as smooth as WW.

 

[TrueBlue]

So how many of us are feeling cripplingly disappointed?

*raises hand*

Why don't you just stop beating about the bush and tell us why? Ignore anyone who accuses you of thread-shitting.

 

[Guevara]

Looks good overall. I like the art design, although the open world looks a little sparse

 

[dan2026]

Well after 10 minutes of Pokemon, Zelda is starting to look like God's gift to videogames.

 

[Magnus]

hmmm, the world looks barren

Yeah...I'm not as blown away as everyone else. So far, the game looks really hollow and empty. I had a really hard time getting into Twilight Princess because of how empty Hyrule felt, and this is just doubling-down on that.

I love the art style and colour, but...there's just, hardly anything going on onscreen. I want a more luscious world to sink my teeth into.

 

[Bitanator]

So how many of us are feeling cripplingly disappointed?

*raises hand*

Seriously, why don't you wait to see actual game play before hanging your head in shame

Gaf overreactions are the best part of E3

 

[yoonshik]

Teleportation confirmed : P

 

[massoluk]

Ok I'm pretty sure Link's female this time

Is this a trap?

 

[Always-honest]

I think people are just tired of Nintendo games being several years behind the curve in visual fidelity.

Absolutely. Especially with Zelda games. Zelda deserves much better hardware imo.
This game looks good for a WiiU game, but it allready looks so empty and lifeless compared to games i have played the last two years.
Not even speaking of the shimmering, jaggies, flickering shadows, low res textures, etc.

 

[KarmaCow]

So how many of us are feeling cripplingly disappointed?

*raises hand*

I dunno, this seems exactly what they showed off before and said the game would be like. I'm not sure why this trailer would be the one to change your mind.

 

[Ōkami]

 

[Enforced]

The "cool looking water" kid from Miiverse is going to love this

Lmao

Indeed. Mario WiiU is going t love it.

 

[zoukka]

Bayonetta isn't 60fps on Wii U and the genres are worlds apart. There's zero change of it being 60fps.

 

[Japanmanx3]

This looks amazing! Wow. Nintendo did it!!!

 

[johnsavage]

Ok I'm pretty sure Link's female this time

Asked a friend that cares not for Zelda and she thinks the person in the picture is a girl because of: boobs, lashes, feminine jaw.

I think that is a girl because of the collar bone.

Spoiler

I know guys have collar bones too but it seems like showing collar bone is a very feminine thing

 

[pringles]

The game looks absolutely beautiful. Need to see more of the gameplay but this might finally surpass Wind Waker as the best looking game of all time.

 

[Xenoblade]

Wind Waker is 60fps on Wii U.

No. Mostly 30fps with drops below 20fps on occasion.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Nintendo still king of Water. Four generations and counting.

LMAO

 

[Coffinhal]

I hate how empty it is.

It being Wyoming.

God that Wii U hardware looks like PS1 to me

Nintendo you disappointed me

 

[Throwaway123456789]

Is it just me or is the YouTube trailer extremely compressed? Or does the game have some kind of smear filter now?

 

[Grizzlyjin]

So how many of us are feeling cripplingly disappointed?

*raises hand*

A little. The trailer did very little for me. I want to see them show off some gameplay though. I want to see how the game plays naturally because the trailer just feels so barren.

 

[evilromero]

The wildlife was my favorite parts. Ducks ftw.

 

[atbigelow]

Having the world be the enemy is exciting to me. I liked them showing wild life and environments.

Not worried about enemies not showing up. Stupidly excited.

 

[Katze mit Hut]

I hate how empty it is.

It being Wyoming.

Yeah thats sad. The whole Trailer seemed dead. Its like N64, but this time it shouldn´t be caused by technical limitations.

 

[Asd202]

I hate how empty it is.

It being Wyoming.

Damn Wyoming has some good IQ and LoD .

 

[phanphare]

wind waker is a gcn game and bayonetta 2 is much more linear and is "60fps" not actually 60fps

edit: wwhd isn't even 60fps

 

[Persona7]

Graphics were really underwhelming. Hoping the NX version is a big improvement.

You think the trailer is not the NX version?

 

[JTripper]

Not sold on naming Link and possibly making him a real character, but I'm all for it if that's the direction Nintendo is taking.

 

[Jb]

Did you see the giant skeleton strolling on a cliff right before that scene? So peaceful xD

Hey now I'm sure that skeleton is actually a really chill dude and if you pick the right dialogue choices he'll let you pass unharmed

 

[Edzi]

Gotta say, I'm incredibly relieved they didn't cave under the internet pressure asking for a gender swapped Link. Starting to really feel hyped now.

 

[KingBroly]

It's shopped, dude.

 

[Booya_base]

Holy crap, I'm not a 3D Zelda guy but that was freakng awesome! A team ico vibe imo.

OT: I am posting this on wifi from a freaking aeroplane right now, aren't the times we live in wonderful

 

[WrenchNinja]

Hope there's stuff to do

 

[duckroll]

Took a few pics from the trailer: http://imgur.com/a/UZ8Fs

You can see a comparison of the visible equipment. It looks very good. There are clearly armor "sets", and even with the same tops there are scenes with different pants and boots. Mmmmmm.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Did you see the giant skeleton strolling on a cliff right before that scene? So peaceful xD

Probably my favorite background detail. So coooool

 

[Get_craycray]

I've taken A LOT of screenshots (28) from the trailer:

Problem: People enjoy hiking, very few people enjoy hiking simulators.

This shit is getting old now. Girl because of collar bones? Stop.

 

[Nintenleo]

I don't know if it's been already posted here. Link's got an armor and it's right handed.

Amazing trailer and music anyway.

 

[RK128]

Man, that trailer was amazing.

The music was outstanding, the game looks great and the art direction heavily reminds me of Ico/Shadow of the Colissus. Can't wait to see more of the game when Nintendo starts showing more gameplay off.
