So dungeon stuff is done by magic.
Makes sense if weapons are disposable.

Aonuma said no magic, though--just technology.

 

[Illucio]

This game looks done already.....

They better be taking this time and adding as much content they can to fill this pretty empty world.

 

[TheSlySoul]

No more bomb ammo, I am so happy!

 

[2tacos]

Game seems too easy for now.

You do realize all of this demo takes place in the very first area in the game, right?

 

[Orniletter]

I haven't seen too much with Dark Souls, but:

• Weapon durability
  [*]Stamina meter
  [*]Counter system

are all new elements (afaik) to TLoZ. They aren't exclusive or first to Souls games, but given that all those elements are present in both and well liked by a large number of folks here, it's no surprise that the comparison is being made.

Both of those were in Skyward Sword and the first sort of too (shields could degrade and break)

 

[Luigi87]

Bokoblin genocide.

 

[thecouncil]

I hope there are a lot of sidequest storylines with a world this huge. The Witcher 3 is huge but there is a lot to do.

Also, exploration with nothing to find isn't fun.

 

[dc89]

It looks glorious.

 

[Vulcano's assistant]

Haha the climate transition certainly does not feel natural, it is pretty, but not natural.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

world is huge!

 

[MisterGrey3000]

btw, I don't think this is a WW sequel. I thought Hyrule was completely destroyed at the end of it?

I mean...
We've already had two sequels to WW, Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks.
Spirit Tracks basically tells us that Link and Tetra/WW Zelda landed on a new continent and founded a new nation.
So if this takes place in that "Adult"/Windwaker timeline it's technically a Spirit Tracks sequel that takes place in a declined so called "New Hyrule".


There should be some wrecked trains or something.

 

[Akhe]

C4. Rip COD.

 

[lherre]

The framerate is a bit awful?

 

[Griss]

There is a bridge between a normal field and an ice level...
'The transitions feel like a natural world'

Laughing my ass off, sorry. Jesus

 

[elshoelace]

MGS Zelda?

 

[Jzero]

Game seems too easy for now.

It's a Nintendo game

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

Nintendo pacing + open world is a welcome combination

There is a bridge between a normal field and an ice level...
'The transitions feel like a natural world'

Laughing my ass off, sorry. Jesus

Yeah...

 

[ZeronosVega]

I don't know if I'm mistaken, but when they glided down to that lower ledge, was the wind affecting their movement? Would be cool if so and another nod to Wind Waker.

 

[Zero148]

the world is so barren, they only run into something to interact with in any way every 10 metres...

 

[BumblebeeCody]

"Counter" was in Wind Waker
"Stamina" was in SS

The only new thing is the Weapon durability...

Even then, Skyward Sword had sheild durability and OoT had the Big Goron knife and MM with the Gold Sword

 

[UraMallas]

I like the arrow counter. It's easy to read and small enough to never be in the way.

 

[nubbe]

wish the enemy would avoid bombs if they see it

 

[weevles]

Chiko pls

 

[Jonbo298]

Game seems too easy for now.

Nintendo will implement hard mode in this too. Calling it.

 

[Brinbe]

combat is great

 

[RoadHazard]

Yep, instant transitions from summer to winter, divided by a sharp border, is super natural!

 

[TWrecks310]

This really is The LoZ version of Skyrim, wow. You can just explore everywhere.

 

[Scrawnton]

Haha the climate transition certainly does not feel natural, it is pretty, but not natural.

Reminds me of world of Warcraft. I like that.

 

[mclem]

Just tuned in, so was girl link ever confirmed?

No. It hasn't been unconfirmed either, but we've seen no sign of the cowl as yet. That doesn't necessarily prove anything - it could easily be male link in that cowl.

 

[Not]

BOOM AXE KILLS

Ahh the puzzle sound returns

 

[Kadin]

This looks so damn good. I don't want to stop watching but I don't wanna see too much. I hate this dilemma...

 

[Plinko]

It's a Nintendo game

...and not finished...and purposely staying in a small area to not spoil the game...etc.

 

[protomouse]

The framerate is a bit awful?

Most certainly the stream. Twitch is a bit better.

 

[chadboban]

Enemies chuck rocks after losing their weapons

 

[Mariolee]

First level in the game

GAF: "Game looks too easy."

Watching stream with nearly 200,000 other people.

GAF: "Framerate could use some work."

 

[MajorMane]

Why is link just naturally spiderman? That feels so wrong. Just clambers up a steep rock face like it's nothing?

There's obviously something weird or mystical here based on Link waking up in a Shrine of Resurrection. Additionally, it's not like he can do it continuously or at any large pace. It seems natural for someone fairly fit enough.

 

[RellyRell28]

Ah yeah this Zelda's version of the secret theme

 

[AdanVC]

Fucking loving everything they have shown of Zelda. Such a massive step from Skyward Sword on every single aspect. Plus the actual world is also maaassive no wonder why this is a 2017 title.

 

[Veldin]

The jingle.

 

[bachikarn]

Haha the climate transition certainly does not feel natural, it is pretty, but not natural.

lol thought the same

 

[AtomicShroom]

The framerate is a bit awful?

Hence why it's not coming out until Spring 2017? They've got plenty of time to fix that. And this is Nintendo we're talking about: You know they will.

 

[Orniletter]

It's a Nintendo game

It's a modern AAA game !

 

[LordOcidax]

The framerate is a bit awful?

Is the stream

 

[Ydelnae]

"The world is cohesive and natural"

Why is a bridge dividing the snow region from the plateau, then lol

 

[weevles]

I love this loot gear/equipment system for Zelda.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I will say the reactions are basically what I expected, right down to the individual people.

 

[mclem]

Game seems too easy for now.

Naked runs.

AMIIBO LOGO SIGHTED. Now... what does it *mean*?

 

[ViewtifulJC]

First level in the game

GAF: "Game looks too easy."

what about the past 15 years of Zelda games gives you any idea this game will be even remotely challenging combat wise?

 

[Milly Osworth]

It looks a bit like World of Warcraft but then with good gameplay. Im getting hyped!

 

[Dugna]

This is very good footage, actually excited to play this compared to whatever was shown yesterday...
