I'm at the point where I want to watch all preview videos but I don't want to spoil anything else.
From the impressions our own GAFers gave, they said they ran into a bunch of unscripted moments in the middle of their exploration..
Also:
From the Kotaku review:
"Unscripted moments where different entities would clash with one another in unexpected ways added to the sense of wilderness. Sometimes, I'd stumble upon humans fighting against errant dinosaurs, or watch as robots turned on each other. I observed robotic vultures pick apart the body of another robot. During another segment, I racked my brain trying to figure out how to sneak by some human enemies, only to have a titan unexpectedly swoop from the sky and wreck everyone's shit. Problem solved! Horizon is at its best when it upends my expectations like that."

Can you at least post a link?
I want to watch it.Nah, it just shows a lot of new crap from BotW. Not worth it.

This video gives a good look at (wildlife spoiler)riding a deer that doesn't kick him off.

Majora's Mask is mechanically superior in every way, but Ocarina of Time has this sense of wonder and care, you can immediately "feel" the quality, the difference is mostly down to dev time. I'm going to make a thread about the magic of OoTs story telling soon and how voice acting really isn't needed in a Zelda game. I used to beat this once a weekend until MM came out, which I beat once and never played again, although I got every single mask(Fierce Deity hype), but it took me till my botw Zelda marathon to realize why it's so good.Meh, people will never let OoT go. But I suppose this game is our best chance of it being "dethroned" where the majority is concerned.
The only thing Majora's Mask didn't do that it needed to in order to best Ocarina was the sense of discovery. It had glimmers of it. But Ocarina allowed for discovery over, and over, and over and over again. It was the perfect storm of developer focus and player free will, at the perfect time in the industry's history.Majora's Mask is mechanically superior in every way, but Ocarina of Time has this sense of wonder and care, you can immediately "feel" the quality, the difference is mostly down to dev time.

MM's true ending is amazing, especially the first shot of the tree, but OoT has so much care in almost all of the moments of dialogue, even sometimes with NPCs in the field. When I think about what a Zelda game is, I think characters. The Mario ranch and Luigi betraying Mario. The mailman/running man. The dancers in search of their master. The cowardly swordsman. The Indigo-go's. If they have really made the npcs and their quests at least as detailed as MM, I could see how that alone puts it in the 9s for some.
If there's one thing I'm looking forward to about Breath of the Wild, it's that it'll probably end the years of creepy weirdo internet armchair psychologists trying to psychoanalyze Aonuma and other Nintendo employees and ranting about how Zelda isn't supposed to have puzzles or talking and only the first game is good
Or how nintendo doesn't know how to make zelda anymore and they should let capcom make it again, because their games were better, when the reality is that the director of the zelda capcom games is directing breath of the wild. Or how koizumi is shackled by miyamoto and he should be the one handling zelda and not mario at all. Because of course they were all forced to do these things
Embargo-breaking video with villages, NPCs, and location spoilers. Not in English.
Here's a non-spoiler video for everyone to enjoy, playing BotW in bed!
Thanks you two.

Do we know yet if enemies respawn in the game, or are they gone from the world forever once killed?

I felt the masks and the mechanics of the game were the discoveries in MM. From the transformations, to the change of the ocarina (i need a guitar ocarina again, Nintendo!), the NPCs and their varied stories that you had to seek out, and how manipulating time would allow you to find them.The only thing Majora's Mask didn't do that it needed to in order to best Ocarina was the sense of discovery.

Fujibayashi worked at Capcom for 10 years. He's worked at Nintendo for 12 years now. He worked at Capcom a long time ago to reference him as such anymore.
Koizumi is cool, but Aonuma was the lead 3D dungeon designer and the reason why he became the producer and team manager of Zelda.

Thanks for all your quick answers guys about the respawning, can't wait to see it for myself 😃

And Ocarina of Time isn't about freewill. You follow along and have to do everything in order. You can't even play a song until you are at the point where you actually need it. It's why I've kind of stopped playing it, but want to continue, because BotW might make it obsolete.
Let's be fair: it's not wholly free form. You can do three of the dungeons in any more, as long as you know how to do stuff that means you don't need boots or arrows; then you can do another two in any order. It's not nonlinear.Every time I play Ocarina of Time I do the dungeons in a different order. And I've played the game well over 20 times.
In the podcast, they say there are moments like this in Horizon but they are scripted and just set up for the player to see. I haven't played Horizon, but this is probably something that everybody sees and it's just an illusion because it only happens during discrete moments in the game.
He says that Horizon only feels "digital" because he has played a dozen of hours of Zelda Breath Of The Wild.
He explains this by saying in Horizon, you have to look at a yellow marker to climb it. You have to find something that was scripted to be climbable. In Zelda, you can climb anything from mountains to trees. You make your own route. In Zelda, you are constantly asking can I do that. And you can 99% of the time. The game constantly rewards you for exploring.
@MikeDiver from Waypoint:
People surprised that BOTW is an Edge 10.
You won't be when you play it.
Oh yes.
Dude, careful. I'm sure it'll be great, but not a 10 LOL.
How exactly does it reward you?

zelda breath of the wild absolutely cannot be a 10/10 here is a list of reasons why
- zelda is overrated
- when was the last good zelda? ocarina of time
- kiddy cartoon graphics no realistic
- switch is wii u power so cant render good graphics
- ugly open world flat and bland
- horizon looks better
- not powered by sony technology
- nintendo paid the press as usual
- waggle probably
- dlc season pass means game isnt even finish!!!!!!!!!
