nah im alright thanks for the warnings though i guess lol

Ain't gonna hold my breath.

Can’t we Xenoblade fans all just learn to get along?

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Finding anyone who's a fan of the first Xenoblade and 2 is really rare. That's usually reserved for people who are Xeno fans in general.

Only reason I put Brelooming in "Pretty Good" is cause I know the least about them, They're still totally cool and I like them. I like everyone here so it was hard to decide on who to put where, we can agree that Steve is the best User here anyways.
Uh Please don't kill me this is mostly a joke don't take it seriously everyone here is amazing and I would've put everyone in Amazing tier but that would be a Cop Out

Ah, I see, you're challenging me to a fight.

Ugh, I'm really not excited for ANOTHER open world Zelda game. -_-.

I'm sorry but BoTW is overrated. It's good but It's just TOO big. I just wanted the game end already by the time I got the 3rd Divine Beast. The Divine Beasts were actually my favorite part of the game but they're TOO short. And seriously, enough with the open world fad, it's tiresome.

I liked the open world but the Divine Beasts were not enough imo. I would want to keep the large world and have the traditional dungeons headed by a unique boss sprinkled about.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

BotW 2 could just be the first game but with a hell of a lot more mobility upgrades and no rain and it'd be GOTY TBH

Being serious, I look forward to another open world Zelda game if only for seeing the BoTW approach refined.

Open world Legend of Zelda with actual dungeons? Sign me the **** up.

[Schnee117]

I found FFXV to be great, I could look over most of it's misgivings as being the fault of Nomura's ****ing around with Dev changing hands and Square forcing it out earlier because, enough is enough, you gotta release it before it becomes unprofitable.

Maybe it's because I came at it from that scope but I genuinely loved it. The music is great, combat is fun, the world is beautiful albeit a touch restrictive, the characters are all ones I want to be around and Ardyn is genuinely one of my favourite villains ever.

The story was a decent attempt but having to cut stuff made things difficult, Luna should have had a far greater presence so I actually care about her beyond being told she's getting married to Noctis.

Game Development ****ing sucks

Was one announced?

I enjoyed Breath of the Wild a lot. On my first run, I got all the shrines and about half the Korok seeds. On my second, I made it a 100% completionist run where I explored every location, did every shrine, did every sidequest, and found all 900 Korok seeds.

But the game's sidequests mostly suck (get X amount of item, bring to person, get Rupees), the Divine Beasts are too short and too similar for how significant and built-up they are, and the story is anemic.

What the game does get right is its world and exploration. Given that you enjoyed the Divine Beasts most, I'm guessing you're pining for the more traditional 3D Zelda format with less exploration and more dungeons.

Which is what I prefer, too. Open-world sandbox games are a dime a dozen nowadays and it just comes off as token, like crafting systems and RNG cosmetics. The older Zelda games are much more linear, but I don't mind linear games any more than open-world ones and replay them just the same. I've probably beaten Twilight Princess about 10 times, and Wind Waker, OoT, and Majora's Mask all twice as well, with most of those being 100% runs.

How many of the old 3D Zeldas have you played?

BotW capitalized on the feeling of exploration and freedom which was fantastic.

It's just everything that I actually liked about Zelda and what I bought Zelda games for was gone or heavily limited.

 

[Pyra]

Ain't gonna hold my breath.

Listen, I don't exactly know what I said to make you feel the need to insist on this, but man, I'm having a good time playing the game so you can knock that off now

Just give me more dungeons. Like, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword level dungeons. Everything else can stay the same. Everything else was perfect.

I feel like Nomura himself is very overrated. You can have a few good games but when it boils down to you putting literally everyone around you from the fans, to Square, to your coworkers, through hell and the game still turns out just ok because of your choices there's a big problem. Nomura could be a good developer and make amazing games, he could, but he flips and flops directions so often that the game ALWAYS ends up feeling like a total mess. Kingdom Hearts 3 and Final Fantasy XV are GREAT examples. They're just ok.

Diem you should know that I appreciate you because you and I are like the only two guys here who post long, well thought out posts (alongside Scoliosis Jones but he doesn't come here that much anymore and I kinda miss him).

Also you're from Arizona too so you understand what it's like to literally live in Hell.

 

[Deleted member]

I'm pretty sure he was pretty much lying in bed being sick back then

Not to be rude but the impact is kind of lost when you say "I played 2 of the most divisive games in the franchise and they made me quit until I played the games people actuallygenerally like". It's like saying "Playing Sonic Forces and Rise of Lyric made me quit Sonic games!" only to then play the games people actually like. Especially as they were on systems other than the Switch meaning theoretically you could have played them earlier

Oh no, I get where you're coming from, though again I've been playing these games people really like blind and just so happen to like them as well. Probably could've worded differently, but at the very least, it's how I kinda felt after going from XV to then IX.

It's kinda like how I viewed Xenoblade 2 before it came out, for better words -- pretty hesitant, then I came around to loving it.

 

[KMDP]

BotW 2 could just be the first game but with a hell of a lot more mobility upgrades and no rain and it'd be GOTY TBH

What BOTW needed was a way to circumvent rain making you slip while climbing.

Like a climbing hook or something.

Maybe stuff like that could be the Dungeon items of the game, rather than essential equipment.

Monolith is hiring people for a Zelda game.


Also I know I just said this but I cannot stress enough how more enjoyable BotW would be with mobility upgrades. Bring back the Spinner from TP to go down hills super fast or something, a Pegasus Boots upgrade that makes Link faster, an eel outfit or something that makes climbing slippery surfaces easier than regular cliffs and a goddamn hookshot that can make you just avoid half of the climbwork

Yeah, I feel like a lot of people tend to just let their minds wander upon a longform post and spill out random thoughts upon a page, which isn't great for conversation and letting people address points. In fact, I see a lot of filibuster, which kinda degrades the point.
