Yeah, jesus christ. Some monkeys can't build houses, just fling shit. It's particularly amazing seeing the lengths to which people will go to deny this game any credit whatsoever for what it's accomplishing. People whose sole design critique is that this game 'steals' from other games, or that it's not doing things other games haven't, are pretty transparently ignorant where game design or proper analysis is concerned. Buncha screaming children up in there xp. The exact same types of rubes who were there bitching when Galaxy got high scores, because "How could Mario be game of the year, it's just Mario! How could Mario have the best soundtrack of 2007, that's impossible, it's just Mario! Must be because of nostalgia! Giving the game 10s because it's Mario! derpaherp"
Xenoblade Chronicles X exist you know. And that one even with the size had almost zero glitches.

I watched a big part of the stream but didn't see most of the gifs posted...truly a sight to behold!

The 'H' stands for hentai.
So maybe in retrospect, focusing their e3 on Zelda was an amazing idea.
Man, hindsight is awesome.

Some of these gifs I'm seeing... Wtf. Like I'm in awe at the crazy shit you can do. And they haven't even shown any dungeons or any of the special items yet! Well deserved win, and the most mechanically interesting looking game since MGS V IMO.

I haven't owned a Nintendo console in over 15 years and of all the games from E3, this was by far most impressive. I may have to pick a Wii U (for my kids...at least that's what I'll tell my wife) and grab this when it comes out. Zelda has been missing from my library for far too long.

wait for the NX

No, I'm already investing into Xbox Scorpio and a 4K tv next fall. I am on the fence about Neo and already own a PS4. I have zero interest in anything else from Nintendo to buy in on a new console from them. Otherwise, that would be the optimal choice.
Well...NX is probably going to be cheaper than Wii U when it comes out. Just going by what they're saying and what rumors are suggesting.

You said you need to buy a Wii-U
if your going to buy a Nintendo console anyway to play this game, just get the NX.
It will run and look better, plus (I hope) backwards compatible.
Best of both worlds
I could be wrong, mind you, but...
- It's not competing with PS4K/Scorpio specs wise
- It won't have a Tablet controller if Zelda is anything to go by
- It's going to have a modern architecture
- It's probably going to have carts
All kinda adds up.

That's what I was thinking.
Actually, I read you wrong, I was thinking all this praise and they have showed hardly any of the game yet.
Goes hand in hand though or could.

Yeah baby!
Does anyone know how long it will be available on Nintendo World?

I legitimately lol'd at this one. That jaunty little "Fuck you!" kick is incredible.
that's pretty good
As weird as thought sounds, yea it was a good idea. Honestly, I didn't know the game demo would be this could. I think we were all just expecting "the next Zelda", which would still be hype but not any more than any of the other reveals.
But it really did take over the show, it seems. I know I could hardly pay attention to anything else. Same for my friends who haven't cared about Nintendo in years.

I still can't get over the lack of voice acting for the NPC's.
Every time that old man appears and you have to read lengthy text it takes me right out of the moment. It doesn't fit and sticks out even more now considering they have some voice acting.
Yes, I know the game will have more voice acting, but they should have gone all in and not half ass it. It's extremely disappointing.

It was by far the game of the show. Nothing else could touch it.
Yeah its crazy same experience here...and this is just the e3 demo...damn.
Nah imaginary language grunting has worked in team ico games, in okami and in past zeldas.
Nintendo's questionable YouTube policies are still a thing you know? That's certainly going to be a Roadblock for let's plays

That hasn't stopped big lets players or people on their partnership system, they'll be fine.

Shu has great taste.
There might be no special items-- just runes and Sheikah Slate upgrades. Seems like it does a lot of things by itself that items would've done in the past (stop time, move objects, create ice pillars, bombs, etc.)

Streamers are essentially untouched through youtube live, but nothing's involved with Twitch.
I was very skeptical of Nintendo this year,
like reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally skeptical to the point where I half expected to not be interested in anything they had for the next few years.
Like yeah Zelda was going to be good and all and I would play it because it's still great and all but I was getting kinda over the point where you could even muster any type of excitement.
Now?
I watched more Nintendo e3 stuffs than I ever did watched e3 stuffs since 2006 when they showed Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime and FFCC Wii!

Well deserved. The best thing about this game is how it will spawn copycats, so we come full circle, again. I personally can't wait for a Metroid game with all this nuance.
No but I reckon it takes second place over MS in terms of hype and excitement.

Well deserved and certainly one of my games of the show from what I saw.I feel Nintendo may need to keep em coming in quality big hitters.
This game has blown everything away. I haven't been excited like this for a game in sooooo long. Fuck I need it.
These gifs always get me. Always gotta have a new gif in a Zelda thread that surprises me.
