I wonder if we'll see any returning characters in BotW or any major new ones. I'd love to see either, especially if one of the returning ones was Groose, Vaati or Ghirahim. :chuckle:

Anyone that knows me would know who I'd want to see return in Breath of the Wild...

Additionally it's be cool to see the Skull Kid and Happy Mask Salesman as well...

Since I've only really beaten Phantom Hourglass, I mostly just have Linebeck on my list at the moment.

I wondered if someone in the concept art might actually be him in a different outfit, though, seeing as they had a similar mustache and bags under their eyes. That's what got me thinking about him in the first place.

I'm a little livid right now.

Our new RA isn't very popular for multiple reasosns. Some deserved. Some undeserved.

We had a meeting last night and... it was not very good. The RA made several mistakes.

Still today people founds ***** drawn on some of his posters. I'm rather angry.

I won't stand for this bullying.
You show them how to act Swamp!

It sucks that they have to act that way. Hope it gets better

I'll third the vote for Linebeck.

Character growth in a Zelda game not involving twenty-odd false faces is a rare and delicious treat. Growth into eleventh-hour heroism is all the better.

Oh, so GameXplain noticed it too, as did whoever pointed it out to them.

That's interesting, so I wasn't the only one that got that vibe from him.

Yeah, they do look similar, and it be pretty cool to see him or a descendant again.

I'll throw my vurtual hat into the Linebeck ring.

He's no perfect hero. But he learns to be there when it counts.

Oh man. . .actually looking at that GameXplain comment section. . .yeah that's a good mix of angry otakus not knowing how to take a compromise and angry 'Murica dudebros gloating at them.

Honestly, the fact that you can switch languages at all on any copy should be counted as a win rather than a loss, or at least a compromise, and then there's the lack of region locking. Look how far you guys brought this. You should be patting yourselves on the back, not being upset that every single thing didn't click into place at once. One thing wrong isn't the end of the world, and it certainly isn't worth cancelling preorders and spouting profane insults over.

On the other hand, 'Murica isn't being any better. Yes, people are being unreasonably upset about things that never even had voice acting or a voice option like that in the first place. That's not an excuse for attacking their hobbies as a whole and especially not them personally, and it makes you look like just as much of a child as they do by doing so.

Honestly, someone should just go grab a paddle and start going after that entire comment section regardless of their allegiances.
Says a lot about the current state of affairs in general. Instead of trying to find answers, it's about making sure your "team" wins regardless of their stance, and then rubbing it in the faces of the "losers". It's like compromise has become a four letter word...

Buddy, current is inadequate.

More like the whole history of humanity.

We've been pretty fortunate in the western world to have people be agreeable.

But you all know the best way to combat that thinking? Just listen to someone. Go to a park, a coffeehouse, anywhere not the net. See some real people, and let them know what you think (respectfully).

I'm only aiming for an abundant life by this point. Nothing more. ;)

I don't understand why having to change language from the system menu is a big deal and is supposedly a loss.

It's not like you'll be jumping from one language to another in the middle of the game. (That would have been fun I'll admit)

People find any reason to complain I suppose.

It's a tad ridiculous, frankly.

Not sure if I would be excited for a Zelda game with multiple endings. Seems weird to me, but if they can pull it off, then good going.

It's because some people prefer the delivery. Which is also why people make a big deal about it in things like FE and Street Fighter.

Especially when it comes to the female characters, I've noticed. Though I myself can hardly stand the delivery of most Japanese voice actresses, it makes me very uncomfortable.

Oh nvm, I misunderstood. You'll have to play the game in Japanese to hear the Japanese voices, huh?

Yeah, that's going to inconvenience quite a few people. I guess it's better than nothing at least.

A lot of Japanese voices are just too screechy for my tastes.

There are still good performances, but the amount of high pitched voices just annoy me.

Give me a low sultry voice any day. :p

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean. Way too high pitched, but more so, they often times sound underaged which tends to creep me out. Especially when it comes from a character that looks like they shouldn't have a voice like that. It also doesn't help when certain creepy people try to replicate it.

I mean, I can see why their complaints are somewhat legitimate. There's a lot of people who prefer a dub that's not in their language because they feel it's delivered better or is more immersive, but they'll still want to understand what's going on.

Swamp Fever is more fun than I remember. I guess this is what I get for pretty much only playing Dark Carnival lol

I'm a dub guy, but dual audio in the game menu with translations would've been nice. Only because it's already there.

Apparently it's because they specifically want to listen to the Japanese VAs but can't read Japanese and still want subs.

Personally I think after all the things that community begged for that they got very recently that they should at least be a little less upset about it, at least until further into the system's lifespan, but I guess for some people it really is all or nothing.

It's fine for them to want it and ask for it, just. . .

That's what makes it weird. It's already there, so why not provide the option to swap voice and text language in-game?

In my experience, they usually don't even allow you to change via system settings.

----

Regarding the whole, "high-pitch anime voices" thing. It's something I don't mind too much, if at all. There's definitely characters I have to question "why" but after that, it's just a thing that happens.
Should it happen less? Yeah, probably. Will it happen less? Not if basement dwelling Otaku have anything to do with it. "She's not a loli, she's a 3,000 year old succubus with DFC."

Yeah, I'm uncertain. Probably just a simple oversight, because using another language to play your game is not something I see many people doing with Nintendo titles so they prob just figured people would be satisfied with the audio of their native language.

Who knows, perhaps they'll patch it later due to the feedback!

I don't see them doing it with this specific game, but considering how much they've tried fixing other issues people have on that front I can see them offering the option in future games. That's part of why I feel this strong of backlash is a bit hasty, although I suppose it could also be useful in accelerating the process.

If there's a reason why they can't, then I would assume that they would eventually bring that to light instead. . .and then be ignored.
