I wan't an "epic" world. Not the God of War type of epic though. I wan't it to be a huge world where you feel like you have no idea what going in a certain direction will lead you to except that are you sure to encounter some incredible monsters and strange puzzles. Huge mountains with castles on top, massive ruins, more maze dungeons, etc.

You guys are setting yourselves up for massive disappointment. Nintendo hasn't done anything to suggest they're going to turn Zelda into some epic WRPG style game with huge bosses and DETAILED landscapes.
You'll get an empty field in HD and love it, just watch.

I never said I wanted a WRPG (Zelda isn't even an RPG to me). I just want more than desert/forest/lake/medieval European town. I want something different

This would be so good. Not following the story or anything but more so, the tone and style of the universe.

how so? we barely seen the game
Of course but we've already had European towns it's time for a town with Asian influences as well. And for some reason I can't imagine much towns appearing in Skyward Sword.apana said:

But really, it doesn't matter what you or I want, Nintendo is loaded enough to do whatever they want. I know eventually we'll have to see a gritty Zelda of epic proportions in HD, its just bound to happen. This industry has taught me to be patient enough, I think I'll be fine with whatever Zelda they pump out till then.

Good god, NO! Anything but that.Anticitizen One said:
I just want it to not be Darksiders. Or Twilight Princess. Or Wind Waker. Or Ocarina of Time.
My point is: I don't want an HD Zelda to follow that stringent formula that Zelda has established so well over the years, especially not to the degree that Darksiders does.

I would give my left testicle for the next game to look like that.
That's EXACTLY what an HD Zelda should look like! Geez!!! :faints:

TWW is one of the best looking cel-shaded games but it still doesn't match the detailed painted look of ghibli and disney films. Compared to that I think TWW looks like a flash animation because of simple color pallete and shapes. I still want Nintendo to experiment with making Zelda look more like an animated film but with HD graphics and a more proportionate art style.

Princess Mononoke
and
Seirei No Moribito (Guardian of the Sacred Spirits)
are great examples of what I'd like to see inspire an HD Zelda title.

You're joking but there are some weirdos out there that actually want something like that. TEH MACHOOR.
Let Nintendo knows best how to develop Zelda. You're not gonna get chiaroscuro art design from them.

You are making a strawman argument. Wanting Zelda to look like a painting isn't necessarily calling for it to have mature content. Very few people, maybe only one or two in this thread, have asked for a mature or realistic Zelda in that sense.

No way I want the game to look mature like God of war. Whats with the hyperbole bs mocking people who enjoy the OOT style. It would be like the OOT camp using powerpuff girls to mock the TWW camp. (I was guilty of this tbh )
I'm not a fan of Skywards sword's style anymore because the cezzane artstyle keeps the game from having crisp detailed backgrounds like the pictures I posted above. When I played the E3 version I was kinda bothered by the blurry background.

It already has an anime-inspired look.
Yep.
Although I believe the people that keep posting the Renaissance paintings are also in the wrong. Zelda games have always been toon-like, brightly-colored, light-hearted adventures. What some of you want you're not gonna get out of this franchise.
Skyward Sword looks pretty painterly to me, anyway.

I really dont get why people want Zelda to look like something else they like. Its like you want the series to lose its identity and just copy something else.

I don't think the series is ever going to move away from the Japanese look because that would alienate a huge amount of people. Even TWW still looks like an anime. The closest to realism I think zelda would go for would be the final fantasy series.
The god of war, dungeons and dragons, and world of war craft style is just to western for Japanese audiences.

Yeah I guess Im responding more to the guys that are like "I want it to look exactly like THIS". I respond more favorably to those who give a mix of inspiration.

Hmmm I don't really see it that way. The pointy nose, hair and the way they draw the eyes match the anime look for the main characters. The npcs on the other hand have a more french comic look though.apana said:

the closest so far then is Skyward Sword but that doesn't have flat colors. then again, you won't get the anime look with it anyway. you can get close. in stills anyway.
