Eh. The storyline doesn't need expanding, although it could be interesting to see more of that aesthetic and some of those story points. Certainly New Hyrule will get expanded sooner or later whether or not it's in the form of a
direct sequel to Spirit Tracks, as of course we'll get new games on that timeline at some point. But seeing that unusual depiction of Hyrule, with its odd architecture, interesting character designs, mechanical bits, etc., could be very interesting. Would love to hear its soundtrack style again too, as Spirit Tracks had my second favorite soundtrack of the series.
That said, gameplay-wise, I'd be more reluctant. The Tower of Spirits was lame and felt unrewarding, unlike the Temple of the Ocean King which, while similar, actually rewarded you for revisits by allowing you to uncover new secrets and unlock new routes. I also thought the train gameplay was complete garbage, and if anything even resembling the train came back, it would have to be reworked heavily. Maybe something like I described
here would be cool though. I'd look forward to something like that... just a cool rail shooter sub-game.
Do I want it? Not really because I'm tired of sequels.
You must hate Ocarina of Time then.
Not only were there four Zelda games before it, but most Zelda games that came out afterward were just Ocarina of Time again. ;D
If it's sequel has trains, no, but if it doesn't than maybe yes. Just the idea of trains in Zelda is ********...
How come? I don't see why trains equal anything worse than the multitude of ridiculous things Zelda's introduced to its world in the past. The trains alongside other machines in Spirit Tracks really created an interesting look and feel, I thought.
Wait just a minute there XskywardX. Did you just bash a game that you haven't even played. I assure I thought the game looked bad, but playing it won me over. Regardless, I somehow find it lowly that you would bash a game and potential sequel if you haven't play it.
While I disagree with XskywardX's reasons, his statement isn't automatically invalid because he hasn't played the game. You do not need to play a game to know what your opinion of it is; you can get that information by learning about the game or watching it if you're smart and know yourself and your own reactions to things well. Expecting people to play everything they form an opinion on is basically just an excuse to discount their opinion without having to actually address it.
(It also expects them to play literally every video game, because clearly their reasons for not wanting to buy a game in the first place cannot be justified unless they play it, right?
)
Most of that part of the timeline sucks (barring Wind Waker), and I really think they ought either to move it on by a few hundred years and drop the cel-shading and endless boring transportation e.g. trains, boats, or they should just forget it completely. Honestly, and I know this is harsh, but an ST2 is like, my worst nightmare.
