I feel like one flaw I can forsee involves weapon degradation and exploring older areas.

Let's say 20 hours in you want to go back to the Great Plateau because you feel you missed something. By that point, you will have gathered newer, better weapons from newer areas. So you'll want to avoid combat in the Great Plateau like the plague, because you'll be weakening your stronger weapons with little to no benefit to you (any weapons you would pick up would be weaker, so there's no point).

The thing that saves this is that you could have a designated "shitty weapon" slot to deal with that, but it kinda defeats one of the best parts of many RPGs: going back to an older area and steamrolling it with your more capable character.

or you just toss a bomb in there illing one while disarming another, quickly equip his shit club and throw it straight at the lookout archer's face, or find something metal nearby (plateau has plenty) and swing it around battering those grunts to death no sweat?

Alternative "Zelda BotW |OT| Everything we've played up until now, it was all for nothing"

 

[casey_contra]

Try harder!

Could we just say Zelda BotW |OT| instead of spelling it out?

Also, reposting my idea for a new page.

Zelda Breath of the Wild |OT| Shrine Ao Feng

" Everything we've played up until now, it was all for nothing "

I'm not sure I get it... is it a play on something?

 

[Pineconn]

"Open your eyes" is perfectly elegant and appropriate for an OT1. Save all the other suggestions for OT2.

Did you watch the switch presentation trailer?

As someone suggested earlier, this on-the-nose Zelda 1-inspired title:

Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild |OT| Take any road you want.

(With the screengrab from the Zelda 1 shortcut passages explaining the joke in the OP)

It's a quote said by Zelda in the January trailer.

 

[USC Trojan]

It downplays every other game released prior as nothing compared to this game.

I think.

This is my favorite.

Or

Get it?!

I like that. Or,

Zelda BotW |OT| Better than Shrine Nir Zoho

Spoiler

But no please don't use this one

 

[Sanic]

Just finished Twilight Princess for the first time. Ready to get my hands on a good Zelda game.

 

[Kinsei]

I like that. Or,

Zelda BotW |OT| Better than Shrine Nir Zoho

What's everyone's obsession with Horizon? They can both be amazing games ya know. There's no need to put down one to prop up the other.

Ah okay, I'm pretty sure I did, but it doesn't really ring a bell.

I'm just going with the flow here, couldn't care less about comparing the two games. I just like how it riles people up.

 

[Lynd7]

Got another one.

And my previous one.

I could have sworn I read a thread where someone advised us to remap BOTW's buttons.

edit: Here it is: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1348683
It was locked since the game isn't out yet. Is it really not possible to remap the controls like this?

Watching now.

Attention to detail seems to be astounding, to be expected from Nintendo, but on this scale seems insane.

The quote from the game says "nothing" though.

Maybe more people would get it if it had *cries* afterwards.

 

[correojon]

A Link from the Past is the best one imo

 

[Labombadog]

No worries. Amazon and Best Buy has us covered,

 

[phatmike128]

I'm about 5 hours in. This game is very different from past console Zeldas. It fixes a lot of issues I had with SS. Frame rate dips a fair bit in points, but aside from that, it's brilliant so far, and combat is hard! You really need to manage things properly.

 

[Dystify]

Do I put "Open-world perfection" or "Triumphant. Groundbreaking. The pinnacle of Zelda." on the accolades image as Kotaku quote? Leaning towards the first cause it's shorter.

 

[casey_contra]

The review thread should be "Grumble Grumble: Zelda Breath of the Wild Review Thread."

 

[RockmanBN]

Well shit. I hate timed fakes.

I've been avoiding stuff/ I forget things, which is nice, because it makes things I otherwise would've remembered a surprise again!

I don't actually like that as a title regardless lol.

Are you playing on Wii U?

 

[Skittzo0413]

The review thread should be "Grumble Grumble: Zelda Breath of the Wild Review Thread."

Grumble Grumble should be reserved for the inevitable Zelda vs. Horizon thread.

And not in the title. Every post in the thread should just be "Grumble Grumble"

It would probably be better for everyone that way.

Forgetting stuff in games is nice, especially for a game like this. Somehow I've already memorized the layout of the Great Plateau and I've never even got my hands on the game!

 

[Verder]

what is the the legit map size?

im seeing multiple different images

edit- found it and GODDAMN

 

[Xbro]

Yeah he said even if we've seen the trailers we have literally seen nothing yet.

WUT

He's not lying. It shocked me how much they didn't show.

Are you playing on Wii U?

Wii U frame rate isn't bad most of the time. The only times you really feel the dips are on the plateau, in certain towns, and certain areas with a lot of special effects on screen.
