E3 threads move fast, and most people don't check the previous pages(and I don't blame them). So I can understand people not seeing the first shop.

The beautiful art style, the promise of a big open world, and the credibility earned by ALBW -- All that's enough to get my underwear thoroughly soaked. When this first aired, my heart and penis rose together as one.

Short trailer, but it looks pretty slick. I love the art style.

Not sure if I'm feeling the visual style. Link looks weird.
It is what people wanted. A game where you are thrown into a world and then you decide where to go from there. Art style is beautiful and game looks great. That is why people are excited.

The fact that people keep quoting them shows the subtlety in those shops lol. Don't hate on Ito because people aren't paying attention to the thread.

I always thought it was really weird and creepy when people expressed sexual arousal when talking about video games, but when I saw this trailer I gripped tightly and the tectonic plates below me began shift.

I'm excited by the promise of the concept as well as the incredible art direction, but I'm really disappointed that no gameplay was shown. Hopefully by the end of E3 we'll get a little round-table meeting where they talk about things in more detail.

Really guys, if they're bothering you I'll remove them.
But it doesn't look like it does for many of you.
So just tell me what I should do and I will.
I've been waiting for Open World Zelda since 2004 TP reveal, so I cant be happier, I really love the harder cel shading Zelda graphics closer to WW ones and the teaser got a lot of Miyazaki vibes like some people have already pointed out, the Mononoke reference is great plus that monster seems taken out of Laputa:Castle in the Sky kind of ancient/laser technology...
Soooo awesome.
And I was pretty sure they were going to change the graphical style, realistic Zelda wouldn't have worked that well in wii U/last gen kind of tech, would have seemed half-assed and ugly, the return of cel shading its a wonderful idea.
But now I hate to have to wait so much for this game...

"OUT!"
Look at that GIF. Link uses his finger to pull out the energy blade end of the arrow. That shit is legit.
I hadn't noticed that before.
Amazing.
He's a dude.
Link is probably a dude.
...that waist.

I love the look of this game. That first shot of Link on Epona in that valley looks like a living painting, even more so than Skyward Sword. I also really like Link. He looks like a grown up version of the Oracle Link or something. I also love what I'm hearing from Aonuma about you being able to go anywhere and the world being connected. That's one of my biggest complaints about Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword, they started to break up the world too much. TP just had that desert area that was separate, but all of SS's areas were separated and only connected through the sky. I'm very excited about this game. I can't wait to see more.

I didn't catch that!
Awesome stuff.
Good question. Draws the string back with the right hand, so probably right handed.
Which means either
A) They switched to right handed previously for motion controls and decided not to switch back
or
B) Motion controls
I actually liked the motion controls in Skyward Sword, but I'd be lying if I said that didn't deflate my hype a TINY bit

WOW at the art-style. If all of Hyrule field looks like that... I really do hope they deliver on the scale. Also, please make towns more populated and give us more of them. And give us Hyrule Castle City.
And 2015 is fucked. There are way too many games coming out next year. 2015 is the new 2007.

Never been a huge nintendo fan but this looks amazing. Might have to get a WiiU now.
Just hope it controls well.

Nice catch there. The little details like this. *phew*

better than a 40 page thread whining about art style which is usually what happens after a zelda reveal

It's funny because all the nuts who think Link is a girl keep quoting them as evidence suggesting it's true. It's satire, sure it's a form of trolling but it is very funny. Obviously if it affects the general discussion and derails the thread too much I understand wanting rid of them.

Tbf, all we've got is a very pretty 45 second trailer that takes place in what is most likely Hyrule field. We know absolutely nothing else about the game.
I agree that the "boy or girl" debate is pretty ridiculous, for a lot of reasons.
However, I'm more annoyed at the "Why is Link so feminine!!?? Grrrrrr!" sentiment from some posters.
It's a freaking awesome thing.
I'm actually not a huge Zelda fan, but I think this is now my most wanted game.

Wow beautiful, Nintendo are masters of subtle animation.

The look of this game is perfect to me. It's incredibly detailed, yet vibrant and full of color. Link looks completely different from what he's ever looked like, he truly looks like the hero of a whimsical world. Miyazaki-esque, as many have said. I love it, I just want to see... gameplay.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
I've been on my second playthrough of WW HD these days, and 50% of the timelessness of that game is in the animations and overall dynamics of the world around you.

Animations are fundamental to the believability of what we see; a stick figure with good animations is likely to draw a stronger emotional response than the most photorealistic human model performing stiff movements.
Well I wasn't exactly trying to fool people to laugh at them; I just had curiosity for seeing how many would fall if I slightly altered the pictures in the right spots.
I think I have presented enough evidence to demonstrate how ambiguous link's gender is in this new game. I have only used the warp tool to slightly enhance the breast, to shrink the waist. Then I put some more eyelashes (he already had) and added some glos on lips, nails and cheekbones.

Now I can't unsee.
I absolutely love what i saw, but my problem is that we saw so little. I mean, nintendo brought little else that was new and exciting, especially compared to both MS and Sony, so why then show so little of the one unannounced game that can build hype for nintendo? Its not like anything else really stood out on the scale that one expects at an E3 event.

Theres a giant backlog of great games plus mk8 and smash theres really no reason not to own one. He can work through those until zelda comes out.
