Timothee Chalamet has the androgynity needed for Link that Holland doesnt have, so I can live with that.
Zelda I think Anna Taylor Joy is by far the best choice, I dont care if she is Peach too.
Now the thing here is with Ganondorf. Idris would be cool, yes. But I would really like if the Gerudo actually were middle eastern, or at least brown. I know Gerudo are considered to be stereotypes or whatever, but I would really appreciate seeing more brown actors getting a chance at roles that are (specifically) made for them. Gerudos are cool! Let someone like Kumail Nanijani or Amr Waked get a shot at it!
I do think that the movie will either be a retelling of the original games plot but with other game elements mixed in or an truncated adaptation of Breath of the Wild. Ocarina seems too ambitious to do.
That being said, I do hope Epona and Navi make it into whatever they end up doing.
The new voice actor has "voice actor" tinge. Matthew Mercer has it too. It's hard to explain and I know it sounds like I'm being hard him, but it's like... theater play enunciation? The normal speaking voice seeps through at the end of words and you can tell "it's a voice he's doing".
Merge it with the metroid series and give me a 3rd person action game where I can live out my bounty hunting fantasies. Og Yakuza style beat-em up game play and traditional fzero car racing mode that's baked into the story.
It'll never happen but thats the potential of the ip right there.
Arceus is a top 3 pokemon game, and scarlet had a surprisingly emotional story but barebones world and functionality (tera typing is great tho). This dlc is taking way too long though, I don't see myself breaking scarlet out to spend 30 bucks on a poorly performing 10 hour expansion
The complaining on NLife comments about no transfer Pak has opened my eyes. Little me was a pro gamer cause he cleared the cups using rentals lmao. Transfer Pak was for connecting the games to the TV only!
Im a huge Fates hater, but after beating Engage I went back to it and damn, it IMMEDIATELY feels sooo much better. The story is still not good, but its actually a story with stakes and interesting characters. Engage just by existing made me like Fates now
The 3ds started so rough, but ended up being so legendary.
Getting it near launch despite the high price point was already a miracle, so I was sure to play the crap out of it. Samurai Warriors Chronicles, Dead or Alive Dimensions... then waiting painfully for ocarina of time 3d.
The system reached greatness though when games like MK7, Awakening, Kid Icarus, and 3D Land came out. Then it just never stopped; so many worthwhile games came out that, like the PS2, idk if I'll ever have the time to get to them all.
Great tactical RPG that I actually took the time to get all achievements on. If it wasnr for gamepass i never would have given it a chance probably. For the people that think it's a "furry" game, if Star Fox's animal characters are too much for you, then sure.
There were 0 times in the first game where I felt the characters were sexualized or otherwise designed to appeal to fetishes.
You have an interesting way of thinking about it. Taking the quote you brought up, do you consider the person who made the lightsaber for Darth Vader to be on equal footing as James Earl Jones?
This isn't argument for the boycott just a question to an angle I haven't really seen taken on this topoc
I played a little of 2 but mostly my Bayonetta knowledge comes from Smash. Her voice is a very distinct aspect of her character so I'm surprised they weren't willing to pay her more for that. Now that I've read up on Kamiya and what a jerk he is, I can safely say I'm not too keen on playing any more Kamiya directed Platinum games nor Bayo 3.
That being said boycotting the game sounds like a shame as the series is beloved
I think this article will age like milk. Wouldn't surprise me if theres a big licensed music related game on the pipeline. Brutal Legend was on to something; another rock action game is coming for sure.
