    Ripping Off Hyrule

    Yes, they are. Why? Because we have the same villain, going after the same power, in the same world. It's expected to be similar because the premise is similar. It's not a cop-out as much as the logical consequence of a man's obsession with a particular power, which is protected in much the same...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    He's a lion/pig/beast thing who looks like a blue Toon version of TP's Beast Ganon. Just because there are reasons for his appearance doesn't mean that his design is a knock off of previous incarnations of Ganon. I'm saying his design is not very original, not insisting that he must be a pig...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    Okay, yes, it's not necessarily a pig, but really, he does kind of look like a combo of LttP Ganon and TP Beast Ganon, plus spiky hair and that thing on his back. I'm just saying his design isn't very original, not that he's necessarily a pig or what have you. Well, for one, thing, I'd like...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    Exactly- the actual story progression, specifically, is usually totally unimportant to the quality of the game. However, when you think Twilight Princess, again, obviously you don't think of what happened during the game, what you think about is what you experienced during the game- that means...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    Well, yes, the story threads of each particular game's plot typically aren't very deep, as games do have to facilitate a steady rhythm of gameplay. However, many games' stories aren't presented simply through what you do in the gameplay, but rather through NPCs, areas, and game backstories. For...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    Dear God, this argument has been around since the first time someone pointed out a plothole in Final Fantasy. Games are a competent storytelling medium, and when a series famed for its world-building and story decides to drop those elements, it's upsetting. The little trolls who think they're so...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    Not sure what that's supposed to mean-- are you talking about the constant repetition of "princess kidnapped, go save from bowser or some other weirdo" thing? Mario has never exactly had a story or world anybody cares about- nobody timeline theorizes on whether Galaxy came before SMB64. If they...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    a) Lions don't have horns (granted, neither do pigs), and even if he is supposed to be a lion, he still looks like a combination LoZ Ganon/TP Ganon. b) Even if it's not his original incarnation, that fact that that's what the developers showed him as means a lot. c) There's still a crazy number...

    Ripping Off Hyrule

    No, seriously. What is the deal with this game? I mean, I appreciate its ability to fix PH's flaws and become something worth playing, but the story elements have me totally baffled. For the first thing, let's consider our wonderful villain. What we have is somebody who long ago was sealed away...
