>>732508212Too early retards. Stop spamming or you'll get them banned
>making a stealth general with no intention of getting it goingAlso I stopped posting in these threads once I realized they were just circlejerks for the same 3-5 anons. Here is a picture of a sage from the legend of zelda twilight princess.
>>732508783>>732509779Yes, we need to stop, fellow anons. Zelda has no place on the board if the past decade was any indication. We're taking up valuable space that could be going to twitter screencaps, American politics, and ragebait to be screencapped and sent back to twitter. Site engagement farming is the true purpose of /v/, and us Zelda anons need to make way for it.Mods, just pull the trigger...
Tried posing my TP Zelda figma to recreate a pic of her I see posted here pretty often. Ignore the cluttered desk I'm building a medabot.
>>732510390 (me)This was the pic I'm talking about. Can't move the ponytail, sadly.
>>732508212
How was our week, Zelda thread boys and girls?
>>732508212It's a little easier if you have a hat.Saria only had a headband, so she didn't make it.
>>732510390arent those figmas like 500$
>>732510682>>732510736That Purah thread earlier this week was great.
>>732511180I found mine for $140. Considering the TotK one retails for like $110 it wasn't bad at all.
>>732510323These threads are glorified hangouts, imagedumps with no discussion and blogposts. Actual discussion is barely had and if someone does try to make a discussion, it gets ignored or barely any responses. Your response actually proves his point. So, I'll repost a topic I brought up in the other thread: If a few Switch 1 games can get updates, no excuse why TotK can't get an update with gold enemies, the revitalizing potion from SS and a master mode for those who want it. It's genuinely baffling how TotK was put out there and left to rot.
Finished my Wind Waker replay, so post the best Zelda.
>>732512104TotK isn't Zelda. Take it somewhere else, preferably to a tendie thread.
>>732512104Do they even release patch the game like they did for BotW?
>>732512250Fuck you, I want to talk Zelda, and I can't even do that because of some discordfags using this as their blogsite talking about their IRL issues instead of Zelda. If you don't want people talking Zelda, don't make these threads in a public space. I see a Zelda thread, I go in expecting some Zelda discussion.
>>732509779The Malonfag that posts here hasn't even played Ocarina of Time.
>>732512467There was a TotK thread earlier today. Now it died quickly because /v/ is a rancid fuckscape that is devoid of any real discussion thanks to rampant shitposters, hostile moderation, and a culture of baiting for epic screencaps to post on other websites, but it was there. To answer your question, TotK took six years to develop. I don't think Nintendo wanted to devote any resources to it after launch so they could move on to whatever the next game is, which is why the Switch 2 edition was as barebones as it is.
>>732511707she’s something else for sure
>>732512663>There was a TotK thread earlier today.I was in it, the you-know-whoposter was there full stop. It's fucking infuriating how here at least, Zelda can't even be discussed. The imagedumps were cool for a bit but there has to be more to it than that. >so they could move on to whatever the next game is, which is why the Switch 2 edition was as barebones as it is.That was a worse move; it means that we'll be stuck with those game for another four years if they aren't trying to get the next Zelda prepped up for a showing. Pardon my frustration, but I know Zelda threads can still be full of good images, discussion and whatnot. Have a Nabooru.
>>732512467>I want to talk about Zelda!!>Proceeds to not talk about ZeldaWhat did he mean by this
>>732512104>no excuse why TotK can't get [recycled content from botw], [recycled content from ss], and [more recycled content from botw]No fucking wonder why no one wants to discuss with you. No one wants to discuss TOTK, and especially not like that.I gave the game a good few hours and dropped it because I didn't want to force myself to play it and end up hating it like I did with BOTW. I liked Ascend and I really fucking hate that they doubled down on SS' Demon King shit but without any of SS' few glints of coolness. Those were my biggest takeaways from what little I cared to play.The only thing about BOTW/TOTK that I want to think about at this point is whatever is going to follow it. Personally, I'd like to see the open air formula try its hand at an ocean, whether that be via a wholly new game (preferable) or a Wind Waker remake (the only 3D game I'd like to see remade).
>>732510471Nice back muscles.Always nice to see more TP Zelda.
I should really replay EoW one of these days. I remember liking it a whole lot but I haven't touched it since launch.
>>732513067It's BECAUSE they recycled so damn much from BotW that leaving all the other stuff in that game was so baffling. Silver enemies are the end of the tiers? C'mon now.>spoilerThat I can agree on.>>732513038I made a post here >>732512104 that people ARE discussing, smartass.
>>732513204Same. Should probably dedicate a weekend to it.
>>732513289>Shitposter with no intention of discussing Zelda is butthurt that people are discussing Zelda in a Zelda threadImagine my shock.
>>732513617>Anyone else NOT like Saria at all?That might just be you anon, but every character has their detractors.
>>732513831I agree. I would have beaten the game by now if the art was more interesting to look at.
How do you recover from being cucked by a FUCKING FISH?
>>732513145>rubber Cucco in the tub instead of a rubber duckyFunny.
>>732513831>>732513893To each their own. I think the style's really cute, but I also generally really like chibi stuff like it.
>>732513774Stinky feet
>>732514180Okay
Took a bit of a break of the vn. Came back this week and reworked the combat resolution/ui into something snappier, closer to fanzine ttrpg stuff, d6, etc. Lifted a lot from Dragon's Crown Demon Island DLC too. So scope is a fair bit lessened from the original big rpg thing I had going on, but I feel like it's tighter and service the idea of the vn better. + smaller/fewer assets means i won't suck up too much time to add content.I also did some Midna exploration, trying to tie her more into the zonai visuals (with the whole brass and jade thing) but it wasn't that great. She's show up in the midpoint of the story tho so it's no pressing matter.I still haven't got around finishing that Ruto/Mipha Onsen piece, sorry
>>732512104Bro these Zelda girl threads were never about discussing Zelda, they were always rpfaggotry and waifufaggotry (malonfag and the medlifag too). They couldn't maintain the general on /vg/ so they do these threads here instead. TotK being shit didn't help. Zelda in general got compromised thanks to fanboys, trolls and legitimate underage who hate playing older games.
>>732514390>GrooseI can't wait.
>>732512563...are you serious?

>>732509779they have a cool themehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQykMlpalZ4
>>732513978Eow Zelda looks like the most mischivious/wholesome Zelda. Just a brainless little gooblet going around trying to use beds to get to the cookie jar.
>>732514949Yes.
>>732513617>>732514180Saria is literally only characterized as a friend because she is Link's ONLY friend. If they made OoT an RPG then sure, they could've expanded on the character but they throw you straight into the adventure.
>>732514990>Eow Zelda looks like the most mischivious/wholesome Zelda.Zelda doing wierd shit with her powers is the best part of all the art EoW gets. That the game allows odd solutions to it's puzzles helps to solidify that.
>>732508212marin is link's dream girl
>>732515371But she's a seagull
Best girl COMING THROUGH
>>732512306kokiri armpits
>>732513831I really try not to be a graphicsfag but EOW was the first time I've ever felt that an art style was actively holding a game back. For fucks sake, they bring back some old OOT classics like Jabu-Jabu, Barinade, and fucking VOLVAGIA, and then they're all subjected to getting funko-ified. The robo-Gohma in Faron Temple was a design I could tell I would've liked more if it weren't for the fact that it looked like plastic.And even aside from the art style, shit like Null was just boring.>guess what guys? the golden goddesses have their own eternal enemy like demise!>he's a giant fat featureless fucking slime blob monster complete with his core being the 'true' body you need to take out to kill him>entire motivation is that he wants to eat everything in creation up to and including the triforce because...he's just a fat fucking bitch like that>and then he just dies and no one will ever mention him again despite how allegedly significant he was (the world as we know it was made just to contain him)>unless he joins up with vaati to be a four swords antag or somethingLike holy shit man, nothing about that game did anything for me. It wasn't even that bad, it was just...nothing. And then it ended.
I will kiss every single 'blin and nobody will stop me!>>732513067I would take anything that's not this "era". I'd be super pessimistic/skeptical of your spoiler'd suggestion but I'd probably play it anyways!
I was in the thread yesterday that reached 400+ post that was nothing but BotW vs TotK arguing (I was arguing that TotK is far more fun on revisit than BotW). Some things will never change with this series (OoT vs MM, WW vs TP, SS vs Everyone, Classic vs Open, Open vs Open). Arguing about Zelda is such a tiring fruitless endeavor.
>>732512104>Actual discussion is barely had and if someone does try to make a discussion, it gets ignored or barely any responses.I dunno, last week there was a pretty broad discussion about the ages of characters in Wind Waker and how the art style makes it difficult to determine how old some characters are, with anons giving some pretty wildly different ages for how old they thought some were. Tetra here for example got estimates ranging from 12 to early 20s.
>>732515263Man I hope the give her the tri rod for something in the next Smash. It would be so funny.
>>732516498>B-move where Zelda heals herself mid-battleThat would be too OP.
>>732516331I actually kind of prefer BotW because it feels more focused on its small set of mechanics than TotK does. That leads to fewer shrines that are glorified tutorials and more that are real puzzle rooms.
Replaying Echoes was fun, but man the temptation to use all the OP Echoes from my first run time persisted my entire play-through kek.
>>732516331Honestly I understand where you're coming from. BotW was a game I really loved but can't see myself revisiting again for a LONG time, because that first-time exploration was where I got a lot of the fun from and I feel like I have to forget everything. Tears of the Kingdom was more fun for goofing around with the constructs and physics even if I didn't really like the game that much in comparison, it's easier to replay to me for that reason.
>>732516664The main TotK shrines I liked were the Eventide Island style ones, although most of them were fairly easy.
>>732516680Do you keep echoes between playthroughs or something?
>>732516664That's fair, I'm of the opinion that one isn't dramatically better than the other. I just have a bit more fucking around with Gleeoks and spelunking in caves in TotK. It's going to be really interesting to see what they can come up with from scratch. Whatever the case, I hope they create nice girls.
>>732508465
>>732516913Nah, but you'll know where they are in your second run. The only limit is their summon cost.
>>732516367It's funny that you say that, because one of Wind Waker's many unused concepts was that the game could've taken place over the course of years, with everyone visibly aging up as the game progressed.After revisiting Wind Waker, I think Medli and Komali still have a little bit of that idea in them. Komali is more obvious because he seems to grow up after getting Valoo's scale, but even Medli acts more mature when Link comes to recruit her for temple diving.Thinking about this stuff is a little bittersweet, at least for me, since Wind Waker as a game is so half-baked compared to Wind Waker as an idea.
>>732516928Probably the one consistent thing about Zelda is that they absolutely will have attractive women in the next game. Even the games with more outlandish art styles have some real cuties in them, and Riju's design in tears of the Kingdom shows that they're not stepping away from that.
I'm not one to buy Amiibo, or Nendroids...but I'd buy an EoW Zelda in a heartbeat.
>>732517094You know I was literally thinking the same thing during that conversation but didn't say anything. The guy that started it said something like "Medli could be 12 or 22, who knows?" and I think that's an effect of the way she was written. She clearly has a more mature air about her.>since Wind Waker as a game is so half-baked compared to Wind Waker as an idea.Yeah, I've always said if I had a time machine I'd tell them to wait and give Wind Waker another full year of development to live up to its concept. I agree with the anon earlier who said it's the one 3D Zelda game that probably deserves a ground-up remake, or to have the concept used to make the next open world game. I still LIKE Wind Waker, but there's a world where I would have LOVED it on the same level as OOT or MM.
>>732517050Good thing I forgot all of that then lol.
>>732517416I agree, but despite its flaws Wind Waker never fails to put me in a good mood. Despite story being darker than you'd think at surface level, I truly love the world and style it has
>get her game>drop it because I didn't like the controls>played Spirit Tracks and finished it 2 years later>find her game in a random box in the attic yesterdayTime to buckle down and finish her game after nearly 20 years, the only entry I haven't beaten...
>>732517614Medli's voice when you call for her and she's stuck or w/e is so fucking cute even to this day...
>>732517614Yeah same, it has a bit of a special place in my heart for where I was in life when it came out too. It's a comfort game for me in spite of all of its flaws, the music and art style really carry a ton of the weight.
>>732517674PT has my favorite puzzle in the series. Play it.
>>732517631Even the artist knows the truth deep down behind Human x Fish relationships!
>>732517614>>732517883People mock it for being easy baby game but it's so comfy I don't care. Sometimes I just wanna relax and enjoy myself!
>>732518137Most Zeldas are piss easy once you know them. Wind Waker is also weird for having its most hand holdy moment be in the final dungeon.
>>732510604Thoughts of long skirts or robes is the thought of slipping beneath and consuming royal booty.
>>732518281Yeah Zelda's never been a difficult series per se, although even in that context Wind Waker and Twilight Princess feel like the easiest. I'm not sure why Wind Waker catches so much of the heat for that and not TP, they're the only mainline Zelda games I never died in once outside of intentionally fucking around like having Link jump off of a really high place.
I keep seeing a lot of TotK hate in the more normie spaces of the internet and it's weird.
>>732518137honestly if you're playing Zelda for the difficulty you're playing the wrong series. The series has never been difficult and there are plenty of challenge runs if that's your thing. Hell, randomizers nowadays are so good and customizable you can make them piss easy or nearly impossible with the amount of settings you can tweak. With Ship of Harkanian you can also easily alter OoT to be whatever you want it to be. Can't wait for the day we get a WW and TP PC port, though I know it will be a while
>>732518771I feel like the general consensus regarding TotK has been gradually becoming worse as we get further away from its release, I kind of wonder if a lot of people weren't just riding the hype train. I've seen some pretty hardcore Nintendo people admit it wasn't that great.
>>732518771It's a normal reaction. I loved totk so much at launch I almost 100% it, but looking back at it now I get reminded of all of the terrible decisions they made and it just makes me not want to play it ever again.
>>732518771TotK is kind of a weird game where once you've finished it, the more you look back the worse it feels. Story exempted which I remember people complaining about even at release.
>>732518771I overall enjoyed my time with the Wilds games, but they're missing essential things I want in my Zeldas.
>>732519680That's how I feel with most open world games. I complete them and never touch them again.
