I wonder if that big furry bipedal-bird creature in that one trailer Link battles
Was also part of a nightmare?

They aren't going to restrict the day/night cycle for the first time, just because they feel like it. There most probably is a gameplay reason due to which they have to prevent that the day changes organically to the night. Assumably it's, similar to what EatChildren said, that the world is going to change rather drastically between night and day now.
However, in any case it means one thing: The night is going to be more important than before. Up until now night time was rather useless in the 3D Zeldas, this time around they have to give the player a reason to change to night.
If there's indeed no fluent change between night and day, I bet that people would find a fluent day/night cycle annoying in this game

Having to find a bed seems retarded. Should've included the option on the bird statues to save time.
Just do what many other RPG's do which is to sleep a specic number of hours to bring yourself closer to the required time. Doesn't even have to be individual hours (ala Oblivion) but quarterly like The Witcher 2. Bit of a lazy implementation if you ask me. Breaks away from immersion and the feeling of time and the arduous length of a mission/task.RagnarokX said:
EatChildren said:
Mee too.
BTW, the story bits are NOT tooo spoilery but that depends on how sensitive you are.
It basically explains what was happening in footage we've already seen.
The day/night thing doesn't bother me if link can put down a tent anywhere.
If he has to go back home, then it's a real drag.
Reading it again I think it's a skyloft exclusive thing. But really don't tell me you don't think it's kind of dumb to make the entire thing about sleeping. If it's just for skyloft that's fine, if it's just for towns in general that's a non issue. But if the only way to make a transition is manual then all I have to ask is.. why? TP, WW, MM, AND OOT all had different things to do in the night and they all featured brilliant transitions (especially WW, when you go to the forsaken fortress in the day, everything immediately changes to night without ever feeling out of place).BY2K said:

Sorry, I'm just going through my stuff again and again, making sure I have everything and not making mistakes, and then you have that Nintendo websites that is banned in here that copy/paste my post before I finish and that is still full of mistakes and such.
It's kind of pissing me off.

yet it makes sense to always have a Link/Zelda every generation of whatever time period
I think you know what I think about SS pretty well now. There's no way I'd ever grab a pitch fork about little details such as this. But just hearing about the potential of not including is... I don't know.BY2K said:
It's not going to break the game in anyway, I know this, but I was very much looking forward (and am still hoping for) to a sunset in the sky.
Given the context of the game it makes perfect sense.Smiles and Cries said:
Every Princess is named Zelda, and every time Hyrule faces a problem a hero is born.
Now, the fact that the princess is always in the same age as the hero is extremely convenient IMO

I didn't read this OP. I haven't read this thread. I am posting this not looking at any of the post history below the text box. I've even disabled avatars so I don't get spoiled for the end boss a week before release or something. I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm staying strong on my media blackout for this game, but every time I see a new news thread, I go HNNNNNNNGGGGHHHHHH MUST NOT READ SPOILERS.
I know that it'll make my experience of the final product that much better, but it kind of sucks not being part of the conversation.

Not really. For nearly all puposesNintendo-4Life said:
night and day were interchangeable. The only difference was that most stores weren't open at night, that one or two were only open at night, and that some enemies would only spawn at night or day in some areas. From a gameplay point of view the differences have been negligible most of the time.
I'm not saying that it was solved badly in the past at all, but thinking that just because it worked for their purposes in the past it also has to work this time around, isn't right.

I was guessing i was the only person who got the
nightmare spoiler
How can you
dream and have nightmares if you are never getting close to a bed ?
Also, nothing stops then for doing some
small timelapse "night is coming" animation for the people who NEED a day/night animation =P

How troll would they be if appears that the
"Master" is actualy .... Vaati

I've spoiled key events of Xenoblade for me,and I really regret ,so this won't happen again... and I usually don't care about spoilers.

If they do it in some
stylized 8 bit style artwork for the zelda 2 parts would be awesome
Also .... who wants that they do a last minute change and add some
van gogh's style for the dream sequences to fit with the impressionist painting style of the rest of the game?doctorwhovangogh.gif

I mean enemies that actually dish out more than a quarter heart damage at a time, and don't constantly drop 3 heart refills when you kill them. No one (sane) wants the enemies to be damage sponges, but conversely Link shouldn't be a damage sponge either. There's not really a lot of tension when you have to almost have to make an effort to die, not to mention it kills any sense of reward in finding pieces of the heart when you're already embarrassingly overpowered.Big One said:
Not that Nnitendo should really need difficulty levels to address those issues. They just need to make the game balanced. You know, like they used to before the series got piss easy? However, in lieu of having faith in the "casual" audience to show a shred of patience with a game that doesn't coddle them, I would accept difficulty levels as a viable alternative.

No more day/night "real time"... FUCK YEAH!
That means that we won't have to wait for night or day, that there are only two times in the game, so it's either day or night and we will not have to wait a specific time, which is awesome!
