what if the game is secretly crappola

Preorder canceled.

 

[LotusHD]

the power of datamining I'm assuming.

Plus Nintendo wasn't lying when they said you can head to final boss from the start. Also no one better say that this is a spoiler since that's from Nintendo.

Spoiler

Spoiler!

Guys. It's Zelda week. This week, that we are in right now.

What is life

Apparently Seth Bling (speed runner who got a copy from NIntendo) already "reached" the endboss in under an hour.

I say it like that because Link's fucking dead.

i don't know. lost in translation was pretty good.

Wonder how many times he died before reaching that time.

 

[LotusHD]

Any of y'all at least gonna check out the castle up close real quick when you first start playing?

Amazing

Yeah prolly. As close as guardians will allow, anyway.

 

[CharminUltra]

Nothing is happening.

[Astral Dog]

Thats impossible,nobody can beat Calamity Ganon after starting the game,ridiculous.

I never said he beat calamity ganon, just that he reached him. There's a key difference.

 

[Lizardus]

I wonder if we can sneak past guardians. Are guardians stealthable?

So many people now saying that the English VA is terrible

If only Nintendo had given us a simple setting to change the language of the audio....

It's not their fault you all wanted them to get with the times and have voiceacting in Zelda.

like actually legitimately terrible or "I want muh japanese" terrible.

 

[CharminUltra]

I heard you can use swords in this game is it true

 

[Speely]

Probably not via mere tall grass stealth ala horse-sneaking. They seem really perceptive from the gameplay vids I've seen.

I DO want to find out the hard way, though

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

No.
Was debunked by The Ranting Robots.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

From what I read, the voices dont fit the characters, like young sounding voices on really old characters. I think I will just have to get used to the translated names of all the items, places, characters and enemies. and just play the game in French or Spanish.

Just be thankful Link doesn't speak, he would be played by Mike Tyson.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

No.

 

[MoonFrog]

So wish dual audio was true. I don't know Japanese, so a) Hyrule gibberish effect preserved, b) written dialogue is much easier to handle when it stumbles than spoken dialogue, c) I like the sound of Japanese, d) people saying the English is bad.

I wish you could go prone in this game. I want some tacticool sneaking.

In one of the Treehouse previews after the Zelda Direct,

Spoiler

they had Link pick off Lizalofs one by one by stealthing around to a high vantage point in a hideout. That was cool

So they sound like in their 50s instead of 80s.

 

[Zips]

Very very few games have GOOD/GREAT voice work.

From what we've heard so far, this game's voice work seems about average. As long as it doesn't make me cringe it won't be so bad.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

I wonder if we can sneak past guardians. Are guardians stealthable?

I think it'd be a tad hard.

 

[m051293]

There's been three voice-acted cutscenes scene on stream so far (one repeat from yesterday). Allegedly there are

Spoiler

166 cutscenes

. I wouldn't make any conclusions about the VA yet.

Kid Icarus for example has AMAZING voice work, I really had hgh expectations for this one.

 

[DVCY201]

Likely the latter. Voice Acting has come a long ways, most people saying it's terrible are just being hyperbolic

 

[Joegrine_TT]

Sorry GUYS

Yeah that was very cool. I feel like the layout of the land around Hyrule Castle will prolly be pretty unforgiving/require some additional abilities to bypass, though. I mean, it's the big bad's pad, ostensibly.

Only a few days till we find out!!!

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Lol, people dont give a fuck about spoilers

you know this is blatant

One of the biggest complaints about Life is Strange (one of my favourite games) was its bad voice acting and dialogue. People have garbage opinions on voice acting / dialogue.

 

[Speely]

Dude cmon

 

[LotusHD]

Savage lmfao, dude gave no fucks

 

[SinCityAssassin]

I'm gonna go with Bosman on this one and say that Kid Icarus's voice acting is very good and high quality for that sort of game. It doesn't take itself too seriously.

Zelda has to take itself seriously, an entirely different tone is needed and people have different standards on what's considered good voice acting in that front.

Edit: Yo fuck you, joegrine.

 

[Joegrine_TT]

Is best that we come off the internet now. There are gifs everywhere lol

Dude no story stuff, come on.

That is pretty easy to dodge actually. Just let go of the glider when it fires the beam then equip it after.

that's from an ign montage and they do it by then end. I more meant the sneaking past them part of it because they have really big sensing range.

 

[LotusHD]

Smh

EDIT: So you gonna remove it, or...

 

[ubiblu]

There's always one fuckwit.
