Okay now hear me out if you will. I had the brilliant idea of a Zelda inspired mmorpg with graphics And playstyle both very similar to Windwaker. I know it would be difficult to create but imagine the potential. Unlike WW it would be heavily land based or at least mostly. The fighting style from WW is perfect. You have basic combos that can be mixed and matched by direction. All that's really needed are more fighting styles, weapons, and classes. Since it's not Zelda you wouldn't have to worry about lawsuits or anything. The character creation could be similar to Phantasy Star Universe or Portable. Towns can serve as lobbies and the field could be pretty large. There'd have to be dungeons which means party forming is a must. I recommend parties of 4. That way you could maybe enter formations (four swords) to help solve certain puzzles. Experience would be earned by the kill and items could be found in dungeons and on certain enemy drops. Cartoony colorful graphics could make the creation of characters a lot of fun. If anyone wants to take a shot at this let me know. (sadly I don't have a computer nor have I started to learn coding yet so I can only keep offering ideas and details). If you want to know more about it just ask.

My interest was lost when you said "with graphics like Windwaker."

I dont like my Zelda games looking like South Park.

Wind Waker was awesome, not only because of its graphics.

two things, first off it's not Zelda or really based ok Zelda. Just similar in gameplay. Second thig I don't mean exactly like WW. I don't want the unrealistic proportions (big heads, long arms, etc.) just something to compare I to. TP had the best graphics but trying to make an MMO with 50+ people in a lobby wouldn't work with graphics like that. How would you suggest the graphics be? Sorry for the bad grammar at the end.

Why would you want to make Zelda any more boring than it already is? D:

There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.

boring you say? How? If I bought Zelda was boring I wouldn't be here. Either way, it takes a truly bad game if you can't even have fun playing it with your friends. That's my goal here, something great to play with friends OTHER than fps games and Phantasy star. Any ideas from you?

I think Zelda is boring and I'm here. D:

Also I have no friends so your point is moot. D:

And ideas? Why quite. But they are inappropriate for this site. D:

1. I was searching for Zelda related stuff and it led me here. Counter invalid.
2. Most online gamers have friends or they make them online if they choose. Counter invalid.
3. I hve suggestions too, I also have a blog dedicated to great game ideas. However it seems like you simply aren't a fan of Zelda esque so I can't expect you to like the idea. Opinion has been noted.

But... why do your experiences make mine invalid? I don't like Zelda and don't have friends, and you liking Zelda and having friends does nothing to change my experiences. D:

1) Zelda does get pretty boring at times. Counter counter invalid.
2) Feenie does have friends here. Counter counter invalid.
3) Your suggestions are noted and ignored. We are not game designers, but the proposed game doesn't sound interesting. lololololol.

Wait, you think that TP graphics were better than Wind Waker.

How? D:

You know

But I'm just like
Can I just like, hang off the back of your horse
And can you go a little faster?!

they invalidate your counters, not your experiences. That simply means that this game isn't for you if your experiences are as you say, to put it simply, you aren't the kind of gamer who would most appreciate this idea.

Buuuuuut... what does coming to this site because you searched for Zelda have anything to do with this game you proposed? D:

1. I wasn't countering that Zelda never gets boring.
2. I was going by her? Word of having no friends.
3. I asked for suggestions to add to my idea. Glad to see you think it has potential.

And some people here do design games. It's how I found the site, searching for a Zelda mmo.

they weren't more creative, innovative, or artistic but i liked the realistic Zelda and hyrule much more. It's opinion sure but when I see Majoras mask and OoT if I were to improve the graphics I think they'd look like tp and not ww. I want to see Young Link again in SSB. any thought on the actual topic?

? I'm confused, that's why I usually don't quote. So everyone who cares knows, I don't lol either but that doesn't mean I'm serious or angry. If I counter a statement it isn't in self defense, it's to clarify something misunderstood. So everyone, speak your mind and I'll speak mine.

I didn't know. I've come to know most people online as trolls. I have online accounts all over. However I've never been bothered either way, I just want to know true opinions or suggestions.
