How do the remote controlled bombs work?

Please not gyro controls, I have nightmares of Skyward Sword bomb rolling.

 

[Draper]

So no release date for this, right?

Can't believe I'm considering getting a system for 1 game

 

[Easy_D]

The Link sleeping for 100 years and "towns are spoilery" (from Aonuma) makes me believe destroyed hyrule is the present and you can travel to the past hyrule.

I swear if you get a portable Timeshift Crystal, that'd be hot. The puzzle possibilities :O

physics plus press a button to detonate

Look all button press controlled. Button to place and button to throw, don't think roll is an option. Then L trigger to detonate or else they'll go off after their timer runs out.

If the NX is somewhat portable, then I'm there day one.

Otherwise, I'll grab it for the U.

7 minutes of nighttime gameplay (IGN)

Direct feed with game audio, no commentary. Very minimal use of music in this gameplay.

Link is a straight-up murderer here. Killing those poor goblins when they're just catching some z's.

[Admiral Woofington]

From gliding to shieldboarding.

Fire arrows by putting the tip in a torch.

i love how he spends all of that time aiming in the second gif and ultimately shoots it in between the bars.

 

[PKMNTrainer]

So what are some opinions on the "survival" aspects of this game? Food for hearts, clothes for weather conditions, weapon durability? Great additions or annoying micromanagement?

That... would be cool

That or maybe doing certain things in the world

Spoiler

like clearing the major dungeons and fighting big bosses

starts the process of making Hyrule safe enough that people start settling in it again, and you start to see civilization slowly returning to Hyrule throughout the game.

 

[Smellycat]

I mentioned this earlier in another thread but I think those towers are super time shifting towers that will restore the land to its former self

Best moment of the E3 right here.

[LurkerPrime]

Beautiful trailer. The scale and scope of it looks wonderful, kinda reminds me of Xenoblade in that regard. I liked the end of the trailer, showing the master sword... although also because my Wii U turned on to advertise a Wind Waker sale the moment I was finished.

I'm hyped.

 

[KingBroly]

The end of the trailer where everything goes silent really sells me on the idea the open world is taking a lot of cues from Shadow of the Colossus.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Couldnt resist the fanart plunge

I was thinking it would have to do with Sheikah settlements.

 

[DeployThatPizza]

This game looks amazing. I love the new changes. The wait is so long though.

 

[Omnicent]

What can they use rupees for this time? Only time they really mattered was Skyward Sword. So I guess I can see it used for upgrading equipment again.

Great Sage Tingle will need your rupee's.

 

[7DollarHagane]

I was having a really shitty day today and not able to shake off some depression. My first impression was very negative but having watched some more I'm really excited. I actually don't want to know any more until play it. Kind of going on blackout for this.

Love the food for hearts and clothes for weather conditions along with cooking for certain resistances. Not sure how I feel about weapon durability yet, though. I assume it is something we will have to deal with at the beginning of the game but will likely become less of a problem over time (more durable weapons...I can't imagine the master sword will have durability issues, but then again..the logo..). Mind you, I typically hate weapon durability, but there seems to be tons of weapons available so that's why I'm unsure how much I'll care. It seems fairly streamlined.

 

[bachikarn]

I got to say I'm pretty happy there aren't any 'input innovations.' Just standard controls with the innovation coming from new gameplay ideas.

Did they just prompt Link to sit in the currently being used cooking pot at 2:15?

 

[Busaiku]

Wait, I just realized "Link" is said aloud.
So no naming options then.

 

[BD1]

Folks, just think, in a few months we'll get the NX reveal and get to see this again on better hardware. Maybe even the next time we get new footage. It keeps getting better and better

 

[MGrant]

Watching the trailer with headphones today, I am really digging the use of Chinese instruments. Sounds like a Chinese flute and an erhu. Gorgeous sound with the orchestra backing. I hope that there's more use of these in the full game.

 

[blame space]

I think this is probably the best game ever

 

[spazchicken]

I just noticed that this game has no music.

That's an excellent theory, it could be this game's twist that occurs after the first 3 dungeons. I would have doubted this theory before today, but now I see that Nintendo really wants to put in the effort to make this game a huge masterpiece.

 

[KevinCow]

I just realized, we haven't even seen a dungeon yet.

Everything we've seen is the overworld and some shrines.

Imagine how awesome the dungeons are going to be.

Have they said anything about weight management/bag storage limits? That's one of the things that annoyed me immensely in the witcher 3.

 

[EhoaVash]

hmm the polygon guy ( nick robinson ) who played the demo for 100 minutes. he loved what he played but said the wii u version had lots of framerate drops

I'm not worried though, game is still almost year off probably

Best moment of the E3 right here.

When she said something about snowboarding the first time i was like "yea, that would be nice" then she did it... i couldnt believe it. thats going to be one of the first things im going to do.

 

[Aaronrules380]

There are storage limits (at least for weapons), though you'll be able to upgrade that as you progress. Nothing about weight as far as we know

Just want to add: woah, would be really cool

 

[bachikarn]

Could theoretically double the size of the map...

 

[KingBroly]

I just realized, we haven't even seen a dungeon yet.

Everything we've seen is the overworld and some shrines.

Imagine how awesome the dungeons are going to be.

Those empty corners on the map make me want to scream dungeons

 

[PKrockin]

Like many RPGs, it could just be that voices always say Link but the text says what you entered.

It's a first party Nintendo game. By the time it's released, there won't be any frame drops trust me.

 

[GnawtyDog]

Lol....

Looks good. Light on NPCs but looks good nonetheless.

 

[phanphare]

this game is going to cross the streams

 

[UnemployedVillain]

They removed the NPCs for the E3 demo

it really reminded me of Avatar the Last Airbender/The Legend of Korra music.

and that's a damn good thing.
