Do you prefer the next mainline Zelda to have a more realistic tone like Twilight Princess, or to continue with a more stylized look like the recent games?
I ideally want a more adult game but I know nintendo will never do it.For tone I would probably want a more realistic tone but not grim dark like TP.Something we have not seen before.I dont want a colourful anime like art style we have had for decades now. Need a change to make it feel fresh.They are using the same engine though, Just better not have shit like durability crap like BotW and TotK had.Let us find actual weapons in game, let the master sword be a true master sword.
>>730859157Style works well, but make Link sexier.
>>730859157i think the style peaked with oot/ mmtp is a bit too realistic compared to the pretty cartoony side characters, botw is fine but i don't love it, it's just a somewhat more grounded ss style
>>730859157I don't care about the graphics, I just want a real Zelda game and not more ubislop.
>>730859157less playmobile, a bit more gritty. cartoonish rendering though
>>730859157TP is still stylized, not realistic.I would prefer the games to look good or at least consistent, and TP was the last game to mostly stick to one artstyle.SS mixes its pointillist backgrounds with actual gremlin humanoids and cartoonish non-humanoids.BotW/TotK are better, but still wildly mix things together, like just taking WW stylized koroks and importing them to a completely different style with no alterations, which implies that BotW/TotK have the exact same artstyle as WW in spite of how different the humans look.
>>730859157i hate both of these graphical styles, both have too much bloom
>>730859157>more stylizednothing stylish about it. it's just bad art and dogshit graphics.BOTW was made several generations after the GameCube yet it looks far worse than 99% of gamecube games.
Can I get dark, spooky and depressing like oot and mm?
give me the wiiu demo lookhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arHNcSMXaBk
>>730859157I want the artstyle of Twilight Princess used in a game about bustling industry and trains and muskets. Red Dead Zelda
>>730860325Those games look whimsy as fuck, you just have nostalgia for how they made you feel as a kid, when any non-pastel color shit can make you feel gloomy.
I've never played a single Zelda in my life. Which ones should I play?

>>730859157I prefer the Tone of TP overall but I don't love TP's tone either. I dislike how "Anime" BotW is. I know all of it is, but specifically the more cutesy moments, like having robots and "kawaii" elements in Zelda pisses me off. There's the odd gag here and there in classic Zeldas, but Nu-Zelda is very in line with the latest of anime. I guess they all were and I'm just trying to say that I dislike modern anime.My friend keeps up with anime, and when he showed me the latest I was quickly annoyed with how forceful the latest OPs are. It seems a lot of anime these days have vocals of guys yelling where it kinda sounds like linkin park or some shit. IMO there's just an added element of forcefulness to modern anime that I don't like, and I get that feeling in BotW like it can't help itself but masturbate to its own "beauty" or something. And I like older Zeldas because they felt more humble than that. Not Skyward Sword but all the other ones.
>>730859157Twilight Princess had a good balance.
>>730859157I didn't like TP much, but I'd really like them to give another stab at that kind of tone and atmosphere.Most importantly, they really need to nerf Link a lot in the next game because he has reached demi-God -status in the newer games.Also if they're gonna make another open world game, please do not make another fast travel slop game.
>>730861413is this bait
>>730859157I seriously don't care; just make it good.
>>730859157Ocarina of Time's key art is the best this series has ever looked. Zelda should have ONE modern looking game with this shonen manga style properly realized.
>>730859157I don't care man, just give me dungeons and items back
>>730859157I want a grim dark tone like Twilight Princess, and that will never happen again.
>>730859157I just wish they didn't have to commit to making the 3D Zeldas bigger than the last. The expectation is now something ever larger than TotK.I unironicallly had way more fun with Echoes of Wisdom than TotK, and I loved BotW.
>>730859157I prefer it to have less anti soul gas. Every other aesthetic is negotiable.
>>730859157TP's LinkTP's dungeon sizeSkyward NPCsMajora's Mask questsALBW non-linearity
>>730864090Haven't played EoW, but I think they took the open world in the wrong direction with TotK.There's so much shit to do in it that they completely annihilate the atmosphere. They turned Hyrule into a theme park.BotW almost had that SotC type of isolated and bleak atmosphere that is completely gone in TotK.
>>730859157Botw had completely generic and forgettable NPCs. The humans were just expressionless Miis.TP had the most hideous freaks imaginable for every side character. No idea what they were thinking. This might seem like a minor detail, but OoT/MM/WW stories were carried by long shots of character expressions. Whatever style they go with needs to find a way back to that.
>>730860014This is just Dark Souls bruh
Make it look like OOT3D
>>730859157It should have cel shading again
>>730861384Ocarina of Time is probably the best representation of the series when it comes to 3D Zelda titles. It's a little more open ended than the later 3D games, but more linear than something like Zelda 1.Link to the Past is also a solid first pick. Seeing as it was the foundation the franchise would use until Breath of the Wild. Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are so different from the entire rest of the series that I would argue you haven't really experienced a Zelda game if you've only played one or both of those. Most of the games are really good though, so if you enjoy one, you're likely to enjoy several others.
