Voidcast #8 – Gimme Some Options, Man!
Posted on September 01 2014 by Jon Lett
Welcome back to the Voidcast! After an extra month hiatus, we’ll look at wat Nintendo needs to do to extend the play experience in a Zelda game. Optional content is a must a lot of the time, and Zelda is no stranger to it, but what else can be done with it to make players feel like coming back to replay a game?

Some of the best moments in many games end up being the stuff you do not even have to do. This is even true with certain Zelda games. Nintendo, as usual, has a LOT of options themselves when deciding what extra challenges to give players in final versions of games, and it seems that Hyrule Warriors is one of their attempts at expanding this idea of unnecessary, but fun, mechanics. Perhaps Zelda Wii U will have more optional stuff than usual, giving us loads of extra hours of gameplay.
