The legend of Zelda hype thread!

[Jared:3]

So excited for this game, comment down below your hopes, what you think will happen, and how much gameplay they will show!

 

[Bowie]

I'm really excited for it. Zelda as a concept is really appealing to me and I hope that they can do justice to it with this new game.

 

[Rasha]

I'm not that excited tbh but who knows maybe that will change after watching the presentation...
it's mostly because I've already played too much zelda since buying the 3ds and the wii u and all of them I played for the first time (remakes/rereleases); wind waker hd, a link between worlds, ocarina of time 3d..and I have yet to finish majora's mask 3d and twilight princess hd. also not forgetting the spin offs aka tri force heroes and hyrule warriors...
also I'm planning on buying skyward sword because I found it in the store the other and I've never played it before..
all of that kind of kills the hype for me, I think I'll be more hyped if they gave us the option to play as linkle because I thought she was so cute but I kind of doubt it.

I am SO excited. I've been waiting for Zelda wii U since they first announced it, I was really sad when they kept delaying and delaying and delaying. The remakes have helped me wait (not gonna lie, I love remakes of my fave games. HD prettiness.) but I'm excited for something new, and from what I understand, Zelda wii U is very innovative. (I guess I should call it Zelda NX now.)

I'm super exited just sad its taken so long

I'm hoping E3 can reignite my "hype". I was always going to buy it anyway, but it was after last year's delay that my actual excitement for the game died off.

 

[LambdaDelta]

wait why do we have an e3 board?

 

[Xerolin]

wait why do we have an e3 board?

e3 is soon

 

[LambdaDelta]

e3 is soon

thanks

I meant as in "what purpose does it serve that the other gaming boards couldn't easily accomplish?"

It funnels all the conversations about E3-related news into one place, and forum users don't have to figure out which board to use for certain topics/games (Gamer's Lounge or Nintendo Treehouse/subforums).

 

[Trent the Paladin]

I just wanna know more about it. Hard to be excited for a new Zelda game when we know nothing.

Honestly, people seem upset with the amount of delays there have been, but I think it's justified if a developer wants to create the best game possible. Games don't do well when they are rushed. Just take Sonic Boom: Rise of the Crystal or whatever it's called for an example. The Zelda Franchise has an expectation to live up too. A delay to let it live up to that shouldn't really make anyone upset, at least that's what I think. I believe people should be happy about a delay; with that delay, developers have time to experiment more and implement more game mechanics. Of course, that's just all my own opinion.

I think it's more fans being upset about not knowing anything about this and the fact the Wii U was completely useless. Delays are fine, but we've passed what? Two or three "release windows" and all we know is that teaser still. Heck Twilight Princess at least had information.

 

[Zodiac Crossing]

dont really want to buy a new system, if thats what the NX is. Don't have too much information on this either, but im a huge zelda fan and will look forward to it. Though, i wish they'd make a really zelda game where Princess zelda is playable. {Hyrule warriors doesn't count because its not a true zelda game, and shes just a ghost in spirit tracks}

Welp, looks like female Link is all but confirmed at this point.
If this is true, then I have to say I'm a little worried if voice acting turns out to be true...

Some concept art for the game has also been leaked

Spoiler

 

[Trent the Paladin]

So long as Link stays silent, I'm fine with voice acting.

 

[Reindeer]

Here's the HQ version of that art.

Also, I don't see how Link wearing a hood immediately makes him a girl. We've seen him with the hood in footage already, and he looked pretty male to me.

Edit: Also, that rendition is from this artwork. Again, looks pretty male.

 

[zoetrope]

Yeah, I'm not convinced that that is a female Link.

 

[A r i a n e]

My god, the leaked art is STUNNING. I have a feeling this is going to be the most beautiful Zelda game yet. I'm so excited to see more!!

 

[piichinu]

if there's a female link im not using her that's so unnatural
