That was such a weird choice. It's such terrible continuity to just have all the NPCs pretend they haven't met Link before. It did feel more like Zelda just hijacked Link's house and kicked him out.

Well, it's also clear Zelda spends most of her time in a literal sewer. Also, Link has to build another house during TotK, so it doesn't seem like there much was much love lost. I guess vacant stares can only take a relationship so far.

I'm fine with that, but just some degree of voice for Link. Gimme.

It'd be a nice direction. Gimme a more interactive Link that talks to people and let me customize them.

I just want some reciprocation. I'm all for sweet looks, but things have to interact for there to be chemistry. :eyes: The romance in Baldur's Gate 3 can be awkward, but at least you can go on dates and respond to flirting and get railed.

Token answer: Sidon, because he's just happy to see you and Link clearly wasn't interested in his sister. Srs answer: no one, because I just don't buy any romantic chemistry between Link and any character. Romance usually takes two people interacting and "interacting" just really isn't a thing...

I'm pretty sure stasis is the Zelda's natural state at this point. :eyes:

The current answer is that my Switch is dead. It suffered water damage two years ago when a pipe burst above me and collapsed part of my ceiling. It limped on for almost two years with issues physically connecting the right joycon, but eventually quit on me in late 2023. Before that? Not...

I'll always read reviews before making a purchase, especially if it's something like a video game or a movie that I've no real option to return or refund. It's always better to go in with as much foresight as possible versus relying on hype and publisher-approved marketing material.

It isn't the most recent thing, but beating the Resident Evil 4 remake in 2:30. That's barely noteworthy on the game's speedrunning leaderboards, but it's the only game where I've taken the time to learn some of the glitches and skips. Feels good to spin around your super rifle so fast that you...

I don't really see how it could be, since the Hero of Time is the one who wears it in MM.

I just hope they lean out of the stereotype in movies where people of middle-eastern origin speak with distinct British accents. Since Ganon and the Gerudo as a whole are a pretty obvious homage to the middle-east I think it'd be better to lean on that than to have him played by a Brit or American.

Tsushima is burning.

Friends take up blades against each other.

I'm planning on emulating it. Nintendo's closure of the Wii U and 3DS eshops, along with their targeting of Yuzu have pushed me into the camp of **** 'Em camp. I'll play it whenever the game is dumped online.

You'd never know it, but But speaking of gods: A newborn god birthed from crystal.

I dunno about you guys, but something about this butthole face just seems trustworthy.

I'm here to save Az from another double post and to show of some sweet, sweet lighting.

Give it time. :emil:

I suppose that even gods must die.

Don't we also find the corpse of something that looks suspiciously like the Wind Fish in BotW?

The silent and invisible first 'I'.

My gut feeling would be no. The Triforce's power is incredibly limited and dictated by the needs of the plot, so I imagine it has as much sway over Lorule as the Underforce does over Hyrule

I'd assume each shard possesses an attribute like the prime Triforce, but I don't think there's anything suggesting they're negative versions. Heck, they might just be the same as the prime version.

Well, they don't actually refer to it as a dark Triforce. Heck, even the Lorule itself isn't implied to be an evil world so much as it is one where the battle over the Triforce tore apart the landscape. I don't think there's any reason to assume isn't along the lines of the prime version. Heck...

A light mist settles over the island of Tsushima.

I think for me it's more that I don't see the Zonai as something that's been in the back burner for a while. Heck, they're not even the first ancient civilization the series has slotted in. If we were looking at a bunch of consistent design aesthetic and references then it would be one thing...

Through a broken window is glimpsed the anarchist battlefield that is Dogtown.

Well, that's soft confirmation that it won't be out this year. June would be the perfect time to start slipping some information out for a holiday release.

It's still Hyrule. It's got all the same tropes, locations, and monsters. I want to visit something that isn't Hyrule or Hytopia and isn't a "parallel world".

It's talked about like it's part of the kingdom and the Hylian royal family is treated as an authority figure there, so I'm inclined to say it's still in their purview.

Absolutely. Confining each game to Hyrule makes the world feel very small. I never get the sense that there's anything beyond Hyrule, since nothing outside of it is mentioned and almost everything taking place beyond its borders is a "parallel world".

Can't be a soft reboot if your continuity never made sense or mattered to begin with. :eyes:

But it isn't explained or even hinted at. We've been told several times is irreversible, but then the transformation is just reversed without any sort of explanation. No one questions it. That's just some awful storytelling.

I guess I'd rather she just stay a dragon. Double down on the fact that it can't be undone. She sacrifices herself for the betterment of others and there's no coming back from that, and Link has to accept that outcome.

Yeah, but how? You can't repeatedly state that turning back is impossible just to undo it in the last five minutes with zero explanation. Keep her a tragic figure who gave up her mortal self to save this one mute twink who lives in her house. Honestly. TotK is a story with such low stakes and...

I'd remake them in a 3D graphical style, but I'd want them to be more than just a graphical remake. I say expand upon and develop the game further with the technology available now. Pull a Resident Evil.

I'm not a fan of the idea. Heck, I wasn't a fan of Zelda's transformation in TotK. The game spends half its flashbacks talking about how you can't turn back if you eat your magic pebble and turn into a dragon, but then the game just... has the Zonai turn her back without any explanation as to...

As if Nintendo hadn't given up before. :eyes:

No. The very existence of the Zonai and the implication that they were active during the earliest bits of Hyrule is at odds with the kingdom's history as we know it, since they just didn't exist back then. Unfortunately, it's just what the series does. Nintendo seems afraid to offer any direct...

Wait, that's my bad. Lemme recycle my message. I don't think any statement was made about BotW's canon, but it's not like it fits into the timeline less than any other game in the series.

I don't think any statement was made about Hyrule Warriors' canon, but it's not like it fits into the timeline less than any other game in the series.

No, because I thought that game's story was awful. :eyes:

It'd be TotK Elden Ring. :eyes:

It'd probably be called something like Phantom Hourglass.

Here's a decent one for a discounted price.

If the first three hours are miserable then I assure you they will not be.

Because I didn't enjoy the first three hours. I don't endeavor to finish games I dislike. If I dislike them then I drop them.
