The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
I...coveted Zelda's ass I suppose
Muh winds
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY
>>730950009One of the most beautiful games ever made. This is how games should be made to look like anime
>>730950009and what an awful game it was
>>730950009last 10/10 Zelda game. I love it for what it has rather than bitch about what they took to give to the lesser game, twilight princess
>>730950009in every way but gameplay, it was kino.
>>730950364>is that a linear story segment? AAAAAA I'M GOING INSANEMinecraft zoomers did irreparable damage to the industry
I wish they followed through with the original concept of the ocean draining halfway into the game
>>730950661>big open sea>NOOOOOOOOOO LINK YOU HAVE TO FINISH 3 TEMPLES FIRST!kys
>>730950009It’s still a great game that’s very immersive. Yes it has flaws but it’s such a perfect example of that old Nintendo soul it’s a 10/10 by default.
>yes it has flaws but its a 10/10
I could never see link on his boat on my game case. The pics online make it look obvious. some anons back me up here the game case never looked like OP.
>>730950009Tetra is cuteso is the bird chickand the woman with pot on her headand the rich girl too even after she became poorAlso the fairy looks like fi.
>>730950009the hyrule temple part was the coolest part of any zelda i ever played
>>730950364Game just doesn't want you to waste your time exploring nothing before you have necessary items to actually explore those islands.
>>730950009Medli
>>730950983>game doesnt want you to explore the giant sea that makes up 90% of the game world so theyre going to artifically gate the fire(hardly even a dungeon), wind, and earth temples and even golf island with arbitrary gates to force you in the most linear route possible, so then you can do the triforce quest at the very end of the game and finally get to explore the sea when msot of the game is voer and youre jsut paying tingle to decipher chartswow, great game design Aonuma!
>>730950364Having your guide tell you to stay on track because filler reason #5 is better than vertical mountains that are the boundary. Name good games set around an ocean.
>wind waker sucks because it's a big, empty ocean! >botw is goat because it's a big, empty landmass! Explain this
>>730951119skies of arcadiagrandia 2high seas traderevo search for edenecco the dolphin(s)pokemon emerald
>>73095084510/10 doesn't mean objectively perfect.
>>730951168Millenials have higher brain power than zoomers
>>730951259
>>730951259yes it does, nothing can be 10/10, because then nothing can top it
>>730950678The game was developed in like two years. They had other ambitions for the game that had to be scrapped. It's remarkable how well it turned out. These days it takes developers two and half years just to get off their asses.
>>730951352>>730951354If nothing can ever be 10/10, what's the fucking point of having a 10 on the scale?
>>730951390something has to be a max number
>>730951390>If nothing can ever be 10/10wrong
>>730951457>>73095146810/10 just means you loved the game in spite of its flaws, it does not mean a game is flawless.
>>730951119>Name good games set around an ocean.Sea of Thieves
>>730951561He asked for GOOD games
>>730951594I mean, I haven't played this in half a year or so and I don't necessarily like all the most recent updates, but in its hayday SoT was genuinely the best multiplayer game you can play with a squad of four.
>>730950009They should do a remake and make it more like BotW
>>730952441BotW is already a spiritual successor in many ways
Its not the best zelda game but its very fun and unique. I got kind of bored sailing so much and dealing with those annoying seamonsters. seabattling sucks and i cant aim the cannon at all ;-;
>>730951352It doesn't. If you get all the answers correct on a test, you have gotten a 100% on the test, but you're still a faggot.
Fug it kills me that the HD version for the wii u is so expenisve
>>730953901>50 shekels?WTF are people smoking
>>730950758>big open seabig EMPTY sea, no one sane doesn't just go straight to their destination
>>730952441Been saying this but keep the original art style
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is an action-adventure game developed and published by Nintendo for the GameCube. An installment in The Legend of Zelda series, it was released in Japan on December 13, 2002, in North America on March 24, 2003, and in Europe on May 2, 2003.The game is set on a group of islands in a vast sea, a departure for the series. The player controls series protagonist Link as he attempts to save his sister from the sorcerer Ganon and becomes embroiled in a struggle for the Triforce, a sacred wish-granting relic. Aided by allies including pirate captain Tetra – an incarnation of Princess Zelda – and a talking sailboat named the King of Red Lions, Link sails the ocean, explores islands, and traverses dungeons to acquire the power necessary to defeat Ganon. Wind, which facilitates sailing, plays a prominent role and can be controlled with a magic conductor's baton called the Wind Waker.
>>730956263Ok Fernando Mendoza
why the FUCK do rings of light on the ocean vanish when you get close? What fucking moron thought it was a good idea to have the player keep checking treasure charts just to be sure of where it was? It's nothing more than a way to pad the game a tiny bit more.
>>730950009worst zelda ever made
>>730958261ToTK
>>730950009I've only just started playing this series for the first time recently and fuck me the old games really are significantly better than the new ones.Now I know that zoomers are completely retarded when they say OoT is "uncslop." Breath of the Wild is literally just an empty field with a few goblins. There's barely a game. OoT is at least 6 million times better and that's not even nostalgia I just started this series recently lol.

>>730958473Rank them so far anon
>>730950009I feel like this might be genuinely the most controversial Zelda game in terms of reception. People seem to either love it or hate it and their reasoning for loving or hating it is all over the fucking place. The only broad consensus I've ever seen regarding the game is the music being good, even with the art style being more broadly accepted today than it was at launch I still sometimes see people complain about it too.
>>730950364You know, it's fine for this to be in a Zelda game early on and open up from there, but it is the last fucking thing I want to read in a seafaring game early on. So goddamn tone deaf.
>>730951168Both can suck a fat one, but if BotW did anything right it took some of WW's more unique ideas like paragliding, map charting and picking up enemy weapons and developed them beyond an embryonic state. In that light, I guess BotW is "better".
>>730951594AC IV, although to be fair, Wind Waker was better and did it first
Wind Temple is the best dungeon. Despitr Makar being a piece of shit, it's at least a reasonably functional iron boots/hookshot dungeon, solid B tier overall. Forsaken Woods is passable too, boomerang and deku leaf were cool and the aesthetic is gorgeous, B-. Kinda drops the fuck off after that though. Still can't believe Earth Temple sends itself off with a literal connect-the-dots sequence. Children's coloring book shit.
The game that began the 3D dark age that BoTW saved.
>>730959347>As if Twilight Princess wasn’t an extremely high seller for it’s time
>>730959653>i know ill defend the dark age by using the worst game! Sales (still low) entirely dictated by the promise of real Zelda coming back only to be a huge disappointment which is reflected in the return of fan disinterest in the series with SSs sales. From wind waker to SS was an era when Zelda was no longer special. That should never ever happen. The reason why it did is because Nintendo spent over a decade remaking OoT but worse and wasted multiple gens doing that.
>>730959812People rightfully saw SS for the slop that it was and I love how you don’t mention the faggotry that is ToTK that disproves your entire “theory”
>>730959347Engagement farming post.Compromised thread.
>>730961041FUCK
I honestly don't like how shit the controls are, plus, the sneaking around in that castle at the beginning is fucking garbage, the guards paths suck ass.
>>730950009CELda is shit no matter how many times they rerelease and “fix” it.
I like Medli
>>730961894I love this art is there any more like it?
>>730961894My favorite thing to come out of Wind Waker.
>>730961872Man, all these responses sound kind of retarded.
>>730962149>Inderpal Ladhar
>>730951168BotW was easier to get around in that you have the paraglider and can climb anything, there's fast travel, also horses I guess, but in the original WW you had to play a song to change the direction of the wind every time you wanted to go anywhere, then you had to spend all the time sailing to your next destination without much to keep you occupiedBut I still like WW over BotW, I loved sailing to each of the islands and unlocking their mysteries, also the first time I saw the ghost ship off the coast of some island one random night is a memory that sticks with me to this day
>dude what if we got rid of all the gritty elements that were essential to zelda's aesthetic>dude what if we made the ocean huge and empty with the same repeating blue color throughout>dude what if we got rid of all challenge from every aspect of the game>dude what if we told you how to solve a puzzle in the final dungeon when the solution was a door over>dude what if we got rid of a few dungeons and replaced them with stupid triforce hunt shit>dude what if we had the worst dungeons in 3D zelda>dude what if we tried to give ganon a sympathetic motive at the final battle, never expanded on it and killed him anyway>dude what if we added a multi-weapon mechanic but made it useless since it drops after opening a door and are all shittier than the master sword anyway>dude what if we permanently fucked up the timeline>dude what if we made it so you constantly have to change the wind pattern to even navigate through the shit overworld>dude what if we made it so that the biggest side quest in the game involves a camera with an extremely limited photo inventory>dude what if we copy pasted shitty enemy gauntlets all over the world for padding>dude what if we made the teleporting mechanic limited to a couple squares of the world>dude what if we had the first major area in the game open up with a shitty stealth segment for no reason>dude what if...hear me out...what if we made the players farm for butterfly charms to progress
Wind Waker walked so Okami could run.
>>730958547I'm right back to playing Wind Waker on my Gamecube back in the early 00's again.
>>730950009It is a good game, but the art style is just pretty lame. So lame in fact, that even Miyamoto had to cringe. He really should have put his foot down and insisted that Aonuma change it.
>>730951561Sea of Thieves gets so close but it misses the mark for me, there is no other game with sailing mechanics even close to as good as SoT, but everything else about the game is such a slog unless you like grinding repetitive voyages or enjoy pvpJust sailing from island to island in my sloop, or on the brig if I could get a couple friends together, was my favorite part of that game, the sailing is top fucking notch
>>730950009A game so incredibly unwell put together that a randomizer fixes nearly all of it. A frigging dice roll clearing what was hand placed.
>>730958473lol you're such a tool
>>730951354>he doesn't realize some 9/10 's are superior to other 9/10 'sngmi
>>730951168Well you see, retard, Botw is chock full of stuff, and Ww is literally a series of empty squares dotted with a solitary island apiece, retard.
>>730950009Funny how if it was for Koji Kondo carrying this whole game on his back. No one would remember Celda.He carried the fuck out this game by musical score alone.
why is this still not available on the switch 1/2
>>730964337Because you're retarded.
>>730964069And ur a retarded zoomer.Lol.
>>730964230The non-Kondo songs were great too, anon.www.youtube.com/watch?v=kV8fTBZ9iP4
