When it's about Nintendo, it is ALWAYS only one extreme. Either it is "Wow, new Metroid, new Mario Kart, new Zelda, new F-Zero, new whatever is coming all in the next two months!!!" or it is "Wow, Nintendo is crap and is releasing only crappy or old games!!!" What a bunch of... π
@COVIDberry
If it's really the same exact world, how could there be suddenly anything new, like dungeons or something?
No, I still say BotW 2 plays a few 100 years before or after the first game or in some kind of parallel world.
@tourjeff Yes, we can only wait and see. But one thing is for sure: It will NOT be the same environment as in BotW and I'm very curious what Nintendo is cooking.
@tourjeff I assume you mean the divine beasts? They were made of a special material where Link couldn't climb, which made sense in the world of BotW. But how would you do that in a classic dungeon with normal surfaces like rock, earth, stone, and so on? How would you explain, that Link can climb basically everywhere in the over world, but can't do it in a dungeon?
@TheFullAndy That maybe could be because RE4 on Switch doesnΛt even hav motion control. Or did Capcom patched it in later on? π€ And what actions in Skyward Sword exactly wouldn't the Switch controller be able to simulate?
@JHDK Skyward Sword has the best controls of a Zelda game to date. But Nintendo should definitely add some QoL improvements, like letting Phi talk way less.
@Classic603 Glad you starting to like it. π That being said, I hope you weren't under the impression I was trying to force my view on you on liking the game?
@Yosher Sadly, even if you get the game some day you probably will never enjoy it, because your mind is already set that way. You'll play it and instead of seeing the good things, you will always search and cling to the bad or not so good things.
@Archius9 This "it sells just because there is nothing else" nonsense is mostly coming for games, of which people won't see why it sells, because they think the game is bad or isn't one of there favorite ones.
I got the US version of OoT basically day one back then. And some day, I played some random notes on the ocarina. I played and played and played and suddenly, a song registered as a legit song (played alone with the typical pop-up "You played this-and-this song), BUT it was no regular song and therefore nothing happened. At least, that's how I remembering it. Did anyone else here heard about this or maybe experienced it him-/herself?
@Classic603 All right. I may be the odd one, but I still say it's dumb to rate something basically from the beginning. Be it a game after only not even the beginning chapter, a TV show after the first one or two episodes, a book after five pages or whatever. Also YOU were the one who basically declared TTYD is better than TOK in everything.
@Classic603 But he/she shouldn't rate it.π€·ββοΈ If you were a teacher, would you rate a kid after one month and say:"Sorry kid, you're to dumb, better quit now before it's to late."
@Classic603 It isn't "slow and weak", it is just the beginning. Would I stop playing a game before it even really starts, I would give almost every game I played a 6 or 7/10 max.
@Classic603 Of course you should finish a game before rating it. Maybe I'm the odd one here, but I belt a game is the summary of all of it's parts and therefore should be rated as such. Personally, if I would have give it a score, based at where you are at the moment, I probably gave it a 7/10 or so (mainly because it was still very early in the game and also because I suck a sliding puzzles). But in the end it was easily a 9/10.
@Classic603 There are many very good tracks, but unfortunately I can't name any of them or I would give out spoilers.π But one of them is a certain stationary very late in the game.
@Classic603 So you basically are just at the beginning. I finished The Origami King after around 45 hours and almost 100% and I can say it beats TTYD in overall pacing, Boss fights, final boss fight, exploration, music, end game and it had more surprising moments for me.
@MeowMeowKins I know they were expensive and had way less storage than CDs, but man, I LOVED those cartridges. They felt substantial and the "clack" when you inserted one in your N64... absolutely great. π₯° (plus there were no loading times)
@MeowMeowKins Well, I played TTYD back then when it was released and I don't like it better. π€·ββοΈ I like it for some reasons more and for others I like TOK more.
@MeowMeowKins Better pacing, better boss fights, better music, better final boss fight, better end game, I (mostly) wasn't forced to battle regular enemies. And it had, honestly, more "Yeah, cool!"-moments for me.
BTW: Why didn't you ask, why I rated TTYD the same as TOK?
