    General Zelda Your Ideal Zelda Game

    I personally want to see another Zelda as dark as OoT and TP. i am tired of cell shading and would like the more realistic vibe it was going for. I really would like to see more relevant side quests that grant us some more optional items. For example: OoT's ice arrows and Biggoron Sword. I...

    General Modern What Modern Zelda is Missing

    Technically the Oracle games came after Ocarina and MM. which is why they share OoT and MM characters. Regardless, i think 3D Zeldas are simply at a different level.

    General Zelda The Return of Bosses Returning As Common Enemies.

    i think it wasn't done perfectly in the original LoZ, but i think it can definitely work out if refined.

    Why Did The Zoras Evolve?

    I had always believed that they were never fully aquatic or that their evolution wasn't caused physically. If you notice in certain Zelda games such as Skyward Sword and Wind Waker and Link's Awakening have a Whale that have some form of powers. Now, The Wind Fish created an island through his...

    General Zelda A Ganondorf Origin Story

    Its difficult to make an origin of Ganon when we already know his origin. In fact, its a little more difficult making a story where we can actually sympathize the prince of evil. Ganon's origin is in OoT (which is why we never see him in Zelda games that take place before it). He was raised by...

    General Zelda The Return of Bosses Returning As Common Enemies.

    Not to me....in previous Zeldas it wasn't an issue...It wont make the previous battle anymore bad...it just means certain enemies were at boss level. and many other RPGs do it too. Now i'm not saying all the I liked that, but i also prefer it be even harder...otherwise whats the point.

    General Zelda Who else Likes Toon Link More Than Adult Link?

    The problem is you're having a fit over someone else's opinion. You like Toon Link over Adult Link? thats perfectly fine, but if you want people to make you feel like you're not alone, don't blame the opinions of others. Your reason so far has been mainly that he's cuter. If you have another...

    Reducing Clutter - Rank Removal

    I dont think its needed in the sense that the forum will break sometime soon but it does look like clutter and would benefit the forum members more. First off, i voted for partialy agree. I do think there is room for rankings. However, event staff, competition leader, Wiki Scribe and several...

    General Zelda The Return of Bosses Returning As Common Enemies.

    If you played the older Zelda (the first three) you will notice that one of the early bosses you defeat in previous Zeldas would come back in later dungeons as common enemies. In the original Legend of Zelda, you fought all the bosses again at one point (except for two including Ganon). In...

    General Zelda Who else Likes Toon Link More Than Adult Link?

    A Link to the Past, Link's Awakening, and Oracle of Ages/Seasons had mostly a teenager, his sprite was just smaller. In A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening you can see that. Unfortunately the Oracle games had a different artist due to being made by Capcom which is the one and only time where...

    General Zelda Who else Likes Toon Link More Than Adult Link?

    i dont have a problem with which one is their personal favorite. so long as they know its their own personal preference. but the problem happens when people start to say which one is "better".
  12. Octorokstar

    General Zelda Who else Likes Toon Link More Than Adult Link?

    The problem is that what exactly do you look for in Link at all is better than the other? personally...i hate...detest...and despise the toon links, they are everything i "DONT" look for in a link. but to each their own. but what exactly can you say that can make one "better" than the other...

    General Zelda Egoraptor's 'Sequelitis: A Link to the Past Vs. Ocarina of Time'

    He bashed on both games for limitations and other things that just really didn't seem to be necessary. For example: Do people ever complain about Mario for being like a guided tour? Then the moment ALBW comes up, he doesn't even try to push the standard he was going for in ALttP and OoT

    General Zelda Should a Modern Day Un-traditional Game, Like MM, Be Made?

    I personally believe the emotional depth isn't really that great. What it had was just a little more character development than OoT. and i say a little more, because the cast was more condensed in MM. But what MM had more was really just more character interaction. Still...with three days to...

    General Zelda Veteran Mode?

    Yes thats exactly the case....back in ALttP to TP, you felt at least challenged, whether or not it was easy....since the addition of "hero mode" its a sense of easy, and easy play through. I admit Skyward sword had some interesting dungeons, but the bosses were a joke to me. And don't even get...
  16. Octorokstar

    General Zelda Veteran Mode?

    What i hate Hero Mode is that Nintendo believes they have to make the game even easier in order for there to be a harder "Hero Mode". Older games may not have been difficult but you could feel that a challenge was intended and that was because it was designed to have a single mode. We need that...

    Twilight Princess TP Is, to Me, the Best Game on the Wii, and the Best Zelda Game. Your Thoughts?

    The thing is, its the style it was going for. And at least the style is consistent. but i hate how people say it as if they didn't know what they were getting into going in. Thats exactly what the game was suppose to look like, even the commercials showed that. WW's and SS's color palettes don't...

    Twilight Princess TP Is, to Me, the Best Game on the Wii, and the Best Zelda Game. Your Thoughts?

    this is the one and only thing i feel most people who dislike TP for this reason are very irrational...i personally dislike WW's and SS's poppy color palette. I think the color pallete used in OoT and MM was appropriate level, TP jst made it look closer to a realistic setting. and i dont think...

    Twilight Princess TP Is, to Me, the Best Game on the Wii, and the Best Zelda Game. Your Thoughts?

    Personally, i love the game, and i consider it one of the udnerdogs in the series that desreves more....i will admit, the intro was rather long, it could've been shorter. but overall, i dont think its the best game on the Wii. i think its one of the best, but not "the best". i did enjoy...

    General Zelda Veteran Mode?

    Personally, Hero Mode is pretty cheap. At least in Master Quests or Second Quest, they mix up the map. I think what Nintendo really needs to do is mix up the puzzles as well and make them more difficult.

    General Modern Weird Settings in Future Zelda Titles

    I dont think thats what made Zelda consistent so far. the original 6 Zeldas were just a fantasy more than a fairy tale....Wind waker and beyond feel like a fairy tail. its like Twilight princess, its not the same feeling you get from wind waker.
  22. Octorokstar

    General Modern Weird Settings in Future Zelda Titles

    Every Zelda that has featured Toon link. that artstyle is perfect to use when they want to destroy conventions....Look at Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks....Minish Cap also does some of this....its a style that allows multiple things. You never see the older Zelda's breaking...

    General Modern The FS Games in a Separate Timeline.

    Honestly, the idea of merging timelines is so complicated and odd...and i hate that they do that....its not really possible unless they pull a DC universe thing. There's plenty of room of moving the FS, FSA, and Minish Cap into their own timeline.... Right now, FSA isn't helping the child...

    Ocarina of Time Am I the Only One That Thinks the Game Didn't Age Well?

    i do believe OoT has aged, but not for a second do i believe it aged "badly". it has still a fun game throughout many generations, and its not "unplayable"...and many generations have had games with bad controls and even "worst" controls than OoT. Keep in mind, most of OoT's issues are camera...

    General Zelda Who Was Your First Companion in Zelda?

    thats probably because she was your first companion. but really, did i really need to tell you that you were low on health when you have a beeping sound to remind you. I felt she could've served a better purpose. Like Ezlo in Minish Cap or . but she didn't really bring much. She's just another...

    General Modern The FS Games in a Separate Timeline.

    Actually there's absolutely nothing suggesting the Force Gem is related to the Triforce anymore than the Spirit of Goods. In fact there's more suggesting that the Light Force is more connected to the Spirit of Goods by the connection of the Force Gems. the Force Gems only appear in Four Swords...

    General Zelda Which is Your Favorite Timeline/worst Timeline

    I think there's plenty of room to hate it.....pressing the reset button was a bad thing to do....why not build on top of what the previous Zelda's have built? And the fact the game's story and lore was a one-time deal and designed for a game mechanic, trying something completely new would need...
  29. Octorokstar

    General Zelda Which is Your Favorite Timeline/worst Timeline

    It used to make perfect sense, or at least it transitioned well....A Link to the Past was more or less the definitive exemplary Zelda that really just explain the origin of the first 2 (whether or not the first 2 are relevant). then we have Link's Awakening, a gaiden to the original. And then...

    Spoiler Two Zeldas?

    Usually in these type of time travel ideas, they make it as if people were aware of the time changes. so whether it was changed in the past, Zelda feels it in that moment in time. as if time was flowing at the same time it was in the past. its weird but far too often that it beomes a trope.
  31. Octorokstar

    General Zelda Which is Your Favorite Timeline/worst Timeline

    Now i'm sure we all love each individual Zelda game, but whether you like all the Zelda games or not, certain timelines just dont make these games shine at all. So which timeline do you like the least? LET ME CLARIFY: This isn't about which timeline had the best games, which timeline had the...

    General Zelda Would You Like to See the Happy Mask Salesman Return in a Game?

    Yeah, but thats all there really is.....Happy mask Salesman overall is just someone who happened to get mixed up by the Skull Kid and taken the Majora's Mask. what more backstory is there? personally, he's a great character, but he is too designed to be in the sideline.

    Ocarina of Time Anyone Else Not Annoyed by Navi?

    Navi is more annoying replaying Zelda rather than playing OoT for the first time because you already know what she will say, but you still ahve to stop and listen to her when all you want to do is speedrun.
  34. Octorokstar

    General Zelda Would You Like to See the Happy Mask Salesman Return in a Game?

    Its hard to imagine a good roll that the Happy Mask Salesman can have....he had a significant role in MM, but it wasn't as significant as Majora's Mask and Skull Kid. And its really hard to ask of him to be more than what he was...unless someone wants him to be a legitimate companion.... His...

    General Postmodern If Link Had a Beard

    I think thats exactly what they were trying to do with Wind Waker

    Ocarina of Time Anyone Else Not Annoyed by Navi?

    i think Navi is someone that you love to make fun of more than she is aggravating. Although replaying Ocarina of Time and she is definitely annoying at certain points. most of the time she's just an optional guide but other times she stops you before you continue and you're forced to listen to her.

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    The dungeons were shorter, the story butchered the timeline. it holds onto mostly nostalgia and fan-service over anything else such as references to ALttP and opposite-characters/world only it takes it straight out of the Dark World with only very few differences. And doesn't really try to give...

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    You're comparing fairies and health to certain areas, not that it was actually difficult. and in OoT and MM you would get fairies only if u know where to look and all the secrets, which happens to any Zelda game. but i'm still talking about an actual difficulty. But i agree that WW and beyond it...

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    In most marios after super mario 64 were easy. even Mario 3D land was pretty easy for me. And i honestly hardly ever die in Kirby either, but its all about absorbing abilities. Metroid is the only one i consider actually difficult when it comes to bosses. And with Zelda, theres always those few...

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    not every dungeon. and the map and the compass don't come up naturally, you still looking for them. the point is that finding the map and compass is part of the charm of the dungeons. and they do indeed make the dungeons more dynamic and longer. Especially for the top-down perspective Zeldas...
  41. Octorokstar

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    Your question is vague. No, its not about the right type of hard. And i don't believe ALttP was "too" easy. Like i said, maps and compass really do help to a significant degree. In ALBW its handed to you right when you enter, you don't look for them. When you get that map, you don't dis-value...

    Lost Respect for Nintendo

    i think NIntendo in this particular case is getting the blame for what their doing. their not being blamed for things they "DIDN't" do.

    General Postmodern If Link Had a Beard

    I wouldn't like that too much, it would make link too much of his own character.
  44. Octorokstar

    General Postmodern If Link Had a Beard

    Either way, i dont think Link needs a beard, that would cater too much to westerners who think beards is whats needed to be cool. For example, western characters like Finn from Adventure time and Ben from Ben 10. Link is fine the way he is.
  45. Octorokstar

    General Postmodern If Link Had a Beard

    Apparently, they wanted to add some sci-fi ideas into ALttP during its concept stages, but they were scrapped.
  46. Octorokstar

    General Postmodern If Link Had a Beard

    That quickly stop being the case however in ALttP. the crosses were mainly being used in Zelda 1 and Zelda 2.
  47. Octorokstar

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    might i suggest you all stop using insults to prove absolutely nothing but how "mature" you all are (that includes JucieJ). My point is still ALBW's failure to try to be anything more than just a minigame.
  48. Octorokstar

    A Link Between Worlds This Game Isn't Good: Here's Why

    I tihnk its a matter of really what you want out of a game...and Zelda has always been to a certain degree "challenging". SS is just slightly more challenging as i get tired moving the wiimote and takes a series of breaks. But regardless, Thats one of the things this ALBW problem has...its far...

    General Modern What Modern Zelda is Missing

    Jokes aside, Zelda really needs more to do than the optional minigame. Back then, a minigame would show u what u can earn right before u played it so you know hat you could be getting.
  50. Octorokstar

    General Postmodern If Link Had a Beard

    Personally, its more western culture to have beards and consider it "Manly". I think Link was getting near his 20s in OoT but that shouldn't stop him from growing a beard. but its not part of the eastern culture to portray their young heroes to have one just to show manliness. in fact, Japanese...
