Looks like crow is on for me tonight. Day 1

Go on, shove it down.

 

[ADiTAR]

As a result, the feeling of progression and the way the puzzles and the overworld are designed are really impacted in a negative way imo. But I really love all the physics systems and powers and the "find your solution" style, it's just sad that the progression around those systems is not well designed.

Maybe play the game first, maybe there will be a progression. We did see a battery icon when Link uses Ultrahand, there's a limit that you may need to progress to increase. etc.

 

[Bragr]

And yet

Hmmmm.

I still don't think it's gonna go over 95. BOTW was such a shock release with how much it changed the Zelda formula, it shot that score up.

 

[UltimaKilo]

First real trailer I watch of the game and it looks incredible. I don't even really play video games anymore, but Nintendo keeps giving me reasons to have to.

 

[AngelMuffin]

It does give an insight how some people only look at the graphics and ignore new gameplay mechanics.

True. I thought GoW: Ragnarok was DLC until I actually played it.

 

[AngelMuffin]

The graphics are not high tech enough for 2023!? Oh the humanity! Pre-order canceled.

I think the issue is that they weren't high-tech enough for 2017.

Personally, art style/atmosphere/mood trump specs.

 

[GeeseGoose]

Previous trailers have drained my hype. This, however, has heightened it!

Except for this vehicle and fusion stuff, ugh. Seems like a tacky system

I personally couldn't give rat ass about if the graphic are high tech or not, in 2017 I played both Horizon and BotW and honestly hated Horizon but I fucking loved BotW, having high tech graphic doesn't mean anything to me.

Agreed. I'm playing The Wind Waker for the first time right now on my Wii U and it looks incredible to me.

Texture showcase timestamp. This will cheer up those sad 8 gb vram owners, like me. Jokes aside, trailer is nice, it looks like a better game than the first one. I wish we could play it on PC, officially. It may motivate me to buy a Switch 2. I'm not playing that 30 fps, low resolution, inferior version.

 

[Topher]

@jaysius out of come backs all he can do is use the empathy reaction

What a way to go. lol

Bye jaysius!

 

[Gambit2483]

I guess I'm going to be an Uber driver in TOTK.

That would be so fricken awesome if it was an optional series of sidequests to taxi people around through various dangerous areas and not just a one-off side mission.

What other versions are there for this to become an inferior version?

Inevitable Switch 2 version.

Can't wait for this bad boy to drop!

To be fair, that game has one of the best art styles in history. It's still gonna look good 20 years from now.

It's over 20 years old, and even the old Gamecube version still has a good look to it. The HD version makes it virtually timeless.

Goku Ganon is already my favourite Goku Ganon

 

[Ogbert]

Cannot wait. Looks glorious.

So, do we think those were underground dungeons? I did spot a shrine.

 

[Draxon Gamer]

I think this game will be a great success selling more than 10m and being a send off for the Switch before Nintendo announces the next system.

 

[Ogbert]

Every time I see Zelda trailers I just wonder how they would look running on a PS5...and remember when Nintendo released top power consoles

It would certainly look amazing.

On the downside however, the game would be a cinematic escort mission where you deliver a moody teenaged Zelda to a gender clinic during a zombie outbreak.

Dat music on 2:10 .. I can't even text properly, May 12th can't come soon enough, this trailer gave me chills..

 

[Aldric]

I don't think they showed "dungeons" per se, I think there might be a recontextualization of what a dungeon means like for ex turning the entire underground region under death mountain into a "dungeon" aka a enclosed place you have to clear in order to purify the region above.

Then again it also seems there are obvious time travel shenanigans with a pristine Hyrule castle being shown so that might be what dungeons are, like in Twilight Princess with the Temple of Time you go back in time at certain locations and instead of exploring ruins like with the Forbidden Temple there's an actual dungeon here.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Just watched it again on my TV, what an amazing way to end the switch life. With the perfect start to the perfect end....I dare say it could be the best Nintendo hardware ever released.

Just incredible trailer. Literally, easy goty right year. Swimming in 10s I can feel it.

 

[mykedo0909]

Behold Ganondorf in all his glory

 

[LastBattle]

I had pretty much no interest in this, despite loving Zelda games prior to BoTW. But gotta give credit where credit is due. That looked pretty damn good!

Just check the emulators on PC
Doesn't get better than that.
Master race is and always will be the pinnacle for graphics.

 

[crazy monkey]

Hi. This looks epic. TX.

 

[Halo2redvsblue]

Microsoft disappoints, Sony disappoints, Nintendo delivers.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Hype trailer, and an insufferable troll banned.
This has been a good day.

 

[AJUMP23]

rocket man should play the first time you use a rocket.

[Buggy Loop]

I just want good dungeons this time. Trailer is good but, can't help but wonder what's the next « forest » place in this game that will tank performances to N64 levels. Unless they use an upscaler like xenoblade 3 this time?

Forget it, no Dungeons for sure. Would be too good to be true.

 

[Spukc]

This looked like D L FUCKING C
Played the first game for over 400 hours.
Nothing in this trailer really pulled me back in.

Like how the hell do you sell more Botw hands down the most innovative open world game with this trailer?

Sky shit? Really? The more creative crafting stuff sounds cool. But water zora world? Real dungeons? Srsly.

MEH.

 

[rodrigolfp]

I'm... not seeing what's so incredible about this.

Everything except the exactly same Wii U graphics, bad IQ and shitty frame rate.

 

[ResurrectedContrarian]

My biggest question is whether it's still compatible with Labo VR.

Even with a "real" VR setup at my house, I still enjoyed being able to put on the cardboard any time in BOTW just to enjoy the sense of scale.

Kind of spoilery but a commercial has apparently leaked:

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

ok that was a pretty hype trailer

I excite

 

[Marvel14]

Looks good, or as good as it gets on the hardware. As always I'm going to play with the Japanese dub to get some much needed "Cultural distance". The English in the trailer made my toes curl and gave me what kids today call "cringe".

The depiction of Ganon? Is that a new avatar or a previous incarnation returning to Hyrule. He kinda looked like Twilight Princess's Ganondorf and the voice over says "... you witness a King's revival, and the birth of his new world". I'm guessing that's from the intro where Ganon robs Link of his powers to resurrect. A good narrative device to explain why the player needs to start over with three hearts again.

I couldn't stand Zelda's English voice in BOTW. Japanese dub all the way...

 

[FeastYoEyes]

All right, you got me, I'm in.

 

[twinspectre]

The same reaction I got.
P.S GoldenBoy is awesome.
