@Dakt I think that's a bit close minded to the character tbh. I would agree more if her reaction and feelings weren't realistic or understandable, but apply her situation to any normal individual her age. I'd be baffled if they didn't react a similar manner.
I think if they had given her more time beyond those small cutscenes and people wouldn't see her as being a big whiner.
@Alikan I think it's more so that she confronts these fears and misconceptions. Eventually understanding them both more and facing the reality of both. Changing her general outlook regarding her job.
In BotW, the frame rate drops were absolutely awful at times. I'm usually not one to notice this type of thing too much, but it's incredibly noticeable in areas like Korok Forest. It's so bad I don't even like going there. I'll try this out and see how it works.
At the moment, it's really just a Zelda machine for me. I've had some annoyances with it so far, but I don't particularly have any real feelings for it.
@PlywoodStick I agree. I just love how purposely ridiculous people are being this case especially. It's the most obvious trolling I've seen in a while on Metacritic.
@PlywoodStick I think there was an article on this site with over 700 comments. Just wait until there's an article that announces Nintendo going 3rd party or something like that, and watch the comments surge.
Zelda at this point has gone gold and is effectively complete. So I would like to assume that this dlc is extra work that's they plan on adding on in the future.
I feel like nintendo could have avoided a lot of trouble if they had simply explained the situation a bit better. Even simply stating something like "now that we've finished the game, we plan to work on brand new content to add on to it" and explaining what's the DLC is in more detail would've gone a long way. Instead of being as vague as they were. They could have also just waited until E3 to announce this stuff.
The timelines pretty dumb anyways. GI is posting more stuff tomorrow so I'm hoping it's something a bit more interesting. Although, this was in itself funny.
I'll be honest. I don't know nor really care much for this tech jargon. As long as it's portable, not too expensive for me(by video game standards) and can play games like BotW, I think I'll be fine.
It's interesting to know and I'm sure it matters to some people, but it won't affect my decision too much.
So why is the stock so limited again? Does this kind of thing usually happen when it comes to consoles. I'll probably look into this a bit more, but I wouldn't mind hearing some other views.
@Yorumi So it's all a big scam? I'm not very tech savy and I don't really play games as often as I used to, but if it's actually a scam then I'll just stop buying online from them.
Regardless of how much it sold, it did successfully do one thing. It got the Mario franchise more exposure, and similar to Pokémon Go, it'll probably benefit them in the long run.

Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
@UmniKnight Oh I know. Her diary helps her character out a bit.
Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
@Dakt I'm not sure I understand the rationale, but I suppose it's just one of those things where they just don't click with you.

Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
@Dakt How so? Was it the voice acting?
Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
@Dakt What's wrong with her complaining? It's entirely reasonable and justified from the characters position.
Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
@Yrreiht #41 No. There is no physical battle. The entire 'battle' is shown in game, with Zelda using her power to contain Ganon while he consumes her.
Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
@Dakt #42 She doesn't even complain in the first three memories.

Re: Video: Here's Four Solid Reasons Zelda: Breath of the Wild has the Best Princess Zelda to Date
Without a doubt the best Zelda, characterwise.
Re: Editorial: After The Bold Brilliance Of Breath Of The Wild, Where Can Zelda Go Next?
Improve on the premise of BotW. They don't need to try to reinvent Zelda again or anything.
Re: Video: See Sonic Forces At Its Best in Official Gameplay Footage
Can hardly tell what's even happening.
Re: Project Sonic 2017's Official Title Is Sonic Forces
Are the stories in Sonic games any good?
Re: Nintendo Switch Stays On Top in Japan Despite Sharp Week Two Decline
After Zelda, I have nothing to really play until Splatoon 2 or 2 or so Indie games.
Re: Nintendo Switch Wi-Fi Issue Could Be Why Your Games Keep Dropping Frames

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Switch Has Started Well - Now the Real Challenge Begins
Personally, I don't have high hopes.
Re: Zelda: Breath of the Wild Player Believes They've Found a Lovely Satoru Iwata Tribute
I love that dude. I legit bought most of my arrows from him.
Re: Breath of the Wild's Art Director on Why Link's Classic Hat is Missing
Man buns/ponytails are actually relatively in style.
Re: Breath of the Wild's Art Director on Why Link's Classic Hat is Missing
Link's already a dork anyways.
Re: Poll: One Week On - How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
At the moment, it's really just a Zelda machine for me. I've had some annoyances with it so far, but I don't particularly have any real feelings for it.
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
@apoqalypse I know. I just thought it was funny how crazy it was.
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
@PlywoodStick I agree. I just love how purposely ridiculous people are being this case especially. It's the most obvious trolling I've seen in a while on Metacritic.
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
I love metacritic
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
@ClockworkMario Many are just trolls. It's why I find several so amusing to read.
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
@beazlen1 I'd imagine very few as well. Many seem to be blantant trolls.
@Kid_Sickarus That's the funniest part to me. They're basically done to plummet the game's score.
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
@JohnSReid Yeah. You should read some of the reviews. They're hilarious.
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Is Officially One Of The Best Games Of All Time
The metacritic score for users is like an 80.
Re: Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons Are Disconnecting, And No One Seems To Know Why
Another tick on the list.
Re: Bill Trinen on the Addition of DLC to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
I would like a bit more info on what exactly the DLC entails, we have a general idea of what they are, but it seems needlessly vague.
I don't have an issue with DLC as a whole if it's done properly. Which I would like to believe is the case with this one.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch Countdown - 1-2-Switch Would Have Been Ideal As 'Free-to-Start'
There's probably some nerds out there who like it, and that's fine. For me though, it just looks dumb and not my type of game.
Re: Video: Nintendo Switch User Interface Shown Off In Leaked Footage
Looks alright. Pretty useless at the moment, though. Beyond simply sharing it online anyways.
Re: Ultimate Chicken Horse Will Bring Level Creation Shenanigans to Nintendo Switch
I actually really wanted this game. So this is really cool.

Re: Nintendo Confirms Expansion Pass DLC for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
I wonder why they didn't just wait until a bit after the game released before announcing the DLC. Probably would have helped the reception.
Re: Splatoon 2's Event and eSports Credentials Boosted by LAN Play and Spectator View
Good. I remember it being a really requested thing back in Splatoon 1.
Re: Project CARS 2 Creative Director Loves Nintendo Switch, But Don't Expect A Port
Just one after another huh.
Re: Yep, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Takes Place After Ocarina of Time
The timelines pretty dumb anyways. GI is posting more stuff tomorrow so I'm hoping it's something a bit more interesting. Although, this was in itself funny.
Re: There Are Currently 'No Plans' For Final Fantasy XV On Nintendo Switch
Darn it Sasuke.
Re: ARM Confirms That The Nintendo Switch's Chipset Is Very Close To Tegra X1 Spec
I'll be honest. I don't know nor really care much for this tech jargon. As long as it's portable, not too expensive for me(by video game standards) and can play games like BotW, I think I'll be fine.
It's interesting to know and I'm sure it matters to some people, but it won't affect my decision too much.
Re: Best Buy Has 'Limited Quantities' of Nintendo Switch Pre-Orders Available
@JaxonH I'll look into it, and see how true that holds up to be.
Re: Best Buy Has 'Limited Quantities' of Nintendo Switch Pre-Orders Available
So why is the stock so limited again? Does this kind of thing usually happen when it comes to consoles. I'll probably look into this a bit more, but I wouldn't mind hearing some other views.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing Range for Switch Online Service
@Yorumi So it's all a big scam? I'm not very tech savy and I don't really play games as often as I used to, but if it's actually a scam then I'll just stop buying online from them.
Re: Nintendo Details How Voice Chat And Multiplayer Lobbies Work In Splatoon 2
So you can't talk to strangers that are on your side? If so, that sounds really dumb.
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Confirmed For Nintendo Switch Launch Day
No lie, seeing Zelda cry like that almost made me shed a tear. It was just a reaction. I don't even really like Zelda. Like what.
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Confirmed For Nintendo Switch Launch Day
The Japanese voice acting is a bit better imo
Re: Guide: Getting to Grips With SOS Battles in Pokémon Sun and Moon
I'm not sure feel about S.O.S battles. I like the idea of it, but the RNG around it can be very very annoying at times.
Re: Feature: Our Hopes and Expectations for the Nintendo Switch Presentation
I'm hoping it doesn't suck. It's not very much an original or detailed desire, but it's the simplest way for tired me to put it.
Re: Poll: One Week to Go - How Are Your Nintendo Switch Presentation Hype Levels?
I'd like to say I'm excited/hyped...but hopeful is probably a better word for it.
Re: Newzoo Estimates Less Than Five Percent of Users Have Paid For Super Mario Run
Regardless of how much it sold, it did successfully do one thing. It got the Mario franchise more exposure, and similar to Pokémon Go, it'll probably benefit them in the long run.
Re: New Features for 'Mario Kart 8 Switch' Appear in Box-Art
Honestly, I'm happy these are fake. If the BotW cover was really that boring, I would be really disappointed.
