Thoughts on the reveal? Looks amazing. 2022 Release, so probably 2023 on Switch 2.

 

[Jeff Spicoli]

Emotional.
Can't wait

 

[sublimit]

Looks like Breath of the Wild 1

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

.

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

GOTY

 

[Entroyp]

Yes!!! Not having a specific date is a bummer though.

 

[Krappadizzle]

Surprised we didn't get a subtitle reveal.

 

[R6Rider]

I wouldn't say it looks amazing, but some stuff they showed looked fun. There's too many questions about changes that need to be answered.

 

[Tams]

It looks great, as, well, Breath of the Wild did and still does.

But the world still looks rather 'dead' from the little we saw. Better than Breath of the Wild, but that was one of the major issues I had with it.

 

[arvfab]

Looked good, hopefully will be less boring than part 1 and return to a more traditional Zelda game.

 

[Kenpachii]

Feels like a DLC i hoped they went for a whole new world.

 

[Majukun]

so everyone thought they would add caves and subterranean parts, instead they added sky islands.

Not much more could be said about the game really, iit seems really behind in terms of development

 

[Shubh_C63]

They are not showing the horror filled underground dungeon parts. smart

 

[Josemayuste]

This is it, more games, please, we do not want services, we do want f***ing games!

 

[Mato]

I love Zelda and i adore BOTW. But I have to be honest. I am not happy with what I saw. It looks too similar to BOTW, almost like DLC. I have no doubt that it will be good but it's hard to get excited about it. I felt happier when I saw Link's Awakening in that handheld thing.

 

[AJUMP23]

Got some sort of cool glove thing on his right arm.


When I first saw it, I thought maybe he lost his sword hand.

 

[Hosam6xavi]

The way link was falling from the sky at the beginning was epic

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

It looks the same as the original one?

 

[SALMORE]

i like what i saw so far , but i hope they don't just calls it BOTW 2

 

[Bragr]

Look interesting, they are certainly trying something new. Polishing up all those abilities is gonna take time, it might be pushed to 2023.

Looks like they are focusing on flying around, I suppose because the sailcloth is awesome and satisfying as all hell. So I guess you can travel between the skies and the ground? interesting. Zelda fell into a hole, so I guess she's not playable.

 

[elliot5]

Looks very similar to botw with a few new gadgets to work with. Will need to see more. I wasn't even huge on BOTW anyway. I guess it makes sense that Hyrule is the same because it's a direct sequel... Wonder what's up with the floating islands. Is this why they are releasing skyward sword first? Lol

 

[alucard0712_rus]

It looks the same as the original one?
No. You don't fly above clouds in BOTW.

 

[TheGejsza]

Extremely disappointed with the trailer.

I am an old fart right now but and rarely game trailers hype me up but I remember when I saw BotW trailer (linked below) for the first time I felt like I was 15 again all excited about a video game.

 

[Termite]

If the map is actually BotW's Hyrule with some sky islands that would be the worst possible outcome. The visuals and engine are the same as BotW, I can't understand how this will end up having taken 5 years in development and not come up with a whole, massive new map from scratch.

Also, in 2017 I was hugely underwhelmed with BotW's graphics. Took a while to get over, but ultimately it became my GotY. I still argue it's not great graphically. So that level of graphics in 2022 will be super rough - I really hope the visuals scale well with the Super Switch.

Overall a really underwhelming trailer for what will probably be an amazing game. Just hugely worried about the map, though. Discovering a new area from scratch was 90% of the joy of BotW. People have put in 100s of hours into that map. No matter what "tweaks" they make to it, knowing roughly where villages are etc would just spoil it.

 

[GymWolf]

It looks good even if they are copying the red plague from horizon fw, well if you can't beat em....

Oh ok, now i understand why people do bullshit posts like this all the time, it is kinda fun, not gonna lie

 

[brian0057]

> "It looks like the first game."
> It's literally called a Breath of the Wild sequel.

What the hell were you people expecting?

 

[Orta]

Needs new hardware.

 

[OceanGaming]

No different than Contraband or God of War one. MEH.

 

[Wunray]

Extremely disappointed with the trailer.

I am an old fart right now but and rarely game trailers hype me up but I remember when I saw BotW trailer (linked below) for the first time I felt like I was 15 again all excited about a video game.

That's because it was a teaser and not a full blown launch trailer.

 

[Reindeer]

New hardware is needed asap.

 

[Fushitsusha]

so everyone thought they would add caves and subterranean parts, instead they added sky islands.

Probably both. Nintendo can go crazy with content above and below, removing a lot of the shackles that comes with the territory of keeeping most of Hyrule from the original (with changes to reflect the story in this sequel.)

 

[Cravis]

Looks like it’s more of Majora’s Mask to Ocarina of Time than a full blown sequel. Oh well. Still looks fun.

 

[Elysion]

Same world. Same graphics. Same artstyle. Same enemies (except that one worm-like thing).

I really hope there‘s more to this game than what this trailer has shown, because after 5 years (possibly even six) I would expect more than BotW with a few floating islands.

 

[nightmare-slain]

I’m not sure how I feel about this… gonna need more info.

 

[SinDelta]

Surprised we didn't get a subtitle reveal.

That, such a short teaser and 2022 make me think its gonna be 2023.

 

[Ghost of Caelid]

GOTY

Oh tarnished one.

 

[MrS]

Looks woeful. Art style is still horrible.

 

[e&e]

Look at those locks on Link while falling damn, the guy is a BOSS!

 

[gow3isben]

Looks like the same shit. I am sure people who liked the first will be happy.

Elden Ring is the only decent trailer we have got this E3.

 

[LordCBH]

Single handedly saved the direct for me.

 

[Birdo]

I like the part where Zelda falls to her death.

 

[Ezquimacore]

those saying looks the same never played the original and are PlayStation fanboys, kill me if I'm lying.

 

[Mato]

Looks like it’s more of Majora’s Mask to Ocarina of Time than a full blown sequel. Oh well. Still looks fun.

I wish.

 

[RoadHazard]

This was really underwhelming for something they have been working on for 4 years, and that also clearly reuses the map as well as a lot of other stuff from the original.

 

[nightmare-slain]

Looks like the same shit. I am sure people who liked the first will be happy.

Elden Ring is the only decent trailer we have got this E3.

What part about sequel confuses you?

yeah it’s gonna look similar to the first game. Yes people who liked the first game will likely enjoy this too.

 

[SinDelta]

If Breath of the Wild 2 is releasing in 2022, it will be throwing down with Elden Ring for GOTY.

 

[Birdo]

People on Youtube claming that the flying character is Zelda.

Erm, they are shirtless.....

 

[Ezquimacore]

This was really underwhelming for something they have been working on for 4 years, and that also clearly reuses the map as well as a lot of other stuff from the original.

they didn't even reveal the title, man. this is the classic zelda tease without any info.

 

[SinDelta]

Its tradition.

 

[CatLady]

Great news! I'm not really into Nintendo games, so I hardly use my Switch for anything except to relax with little point and click adventure games. BUT I really did like BotW and have really been looking forward to getting the sequel.

2022 is going to be insane for gamers. Starfield, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and this game alone make it awesome and there are tons more games I want to play coming next year..
