Experiencing Twilight Princess for the first time has to easily be a Top 3 vidya memory oat. Sure it has its flaws, but it's just such a magical and memorable game and there is really nothing else out there like it. They truly don't make em like this anymore.
Memorable but not "magical" imo.
>>738295096It has a lot of gameplay related flaws, but man it's easily the best Zelda game when it comes to atmosphere and aesthetics. It absolutely nails the vibes that a Zelda game should have, it's the perfect mix of dark and whimsical. And there's a reason TP Link is still used in advertising to this day, he's the quintessential incarnation of the character.It's crazy that we got Twilight Princess, Wind Waker, and Majora's Mask in the span of 6 years plus several 2D games - the same amount of time between BOTW and TOTK. The franchise was on fucking fire back then.
It’s worth a replay and 100%ing it by finding every possible chest (use a tracker). And realizing how much rupees it gives for such little use lol.I did do cave of ordeals twice. Last floor against 4 darknuts was nutty. Looking forward to pc port having randomizer support.
>>738295096I like how the horse was finally made useful and a mansion as a dungeon was cool.6/10 game
>>738295096i thought it was average when I played it on gamecube, but I grew to really appreciate it when I played the HD version on Wii U. I hate nu zelda so I hope they make another one like this. The OOT remake will be a good start
>>738295096Is this good to play as a first Zelda game?
>>738296559isn't oot remake going to be more ubisoft open world trash
>>738296613It feels like it was a false rumor that everyone got tricked. If anything all we know is Monolith is working on something Zelda. Even moreso than before.
>>738296613we don't even know if it really exists let alone whether it's faithful or open world.
>>738295096Retarded zoomer
>>738296587sure you could make an argument for some of the other games but it honestly doesn't really matter which one you play first. you might miss the odd reference to older games but nothing important. just be aware the intro of the game is pretty slow paced but stick it out.
>>738295096it has heartI've always appreciated games with a melancholy tone. straight faced heroic adventure against evil with that melancholic atmosphere is really charming
>>738296857I always hear this but I just don't agree. It has edges and odd character designs, but to me, it comes together in a wonderful way.
>>738295096I think about the sound design a lothttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruqFGDDNvHM
>>738296857>I'm agreeing with the other anon in the thread that said these graphics in this game didn't age well.nobody said that lol. I do agree the bloom is too much and the textures are sort of muddy, but I think the art style is excellent and makes up for its graphical shortcomings. it's almost like they just didn't have the tech to fully realize what they were trying to do yet so it looks rough but the designs are peak Zelda imo. TP remade with the graphic fidelity of that Wii U Zelda tech demo that had the same art style would look fantastic. I haven't played the Wii U remastered version so I don't know how that looks. but yeah.
I played it for the first time two months ago.Every single thing before the wolf was undiluted shit and the wolf was really bad too. Took a week to force myself to complete the first three temples. The desert, the mountain mansion temple and the dual claw shot + sky boss were 20/10 though. Aestethics were 10/10 too.
>>738295096I'm glad they put in a hard mode in the HD version, 3 hearts hero mode and ganon amiibo is a totally different game, it just feels wrong to have the best swordplay but have everything do chip damage
>>738295096I recently played it and the only thing i remember is the god awful bloom.
>>738295096I've never experienced TP unmirrored, having only played it on the Wii. Feels like I'm missing a lot. I can't wait for the PC decompile
>>738296587All of them are except maybe Majora's Mask which is a direct sequel. I started with Wind Waker on GC - toddler-easy but still introduces you to the core Zelda gameplay formula.
Any way to start playing Zelda games legally on modern consoles or is Nintendo still trying to kill everything they've ever made?
>>738296770seething bald fatso
>>738297489NSO on the switch has a lot of them. Along with the remasters and current era games I'mpretty sure every main line Zelda game is playable on Switch EXCEPT Twilight Princess
>>738297556>NSOSo the answer is no. Thanks though. I won't touch NSO, it's retarded. I wish to buy a product, not subscribe to a service.
>>738297489Oh and Wind Waker is Switch 2 only because the gamecube NSO is exclusive
This is now a TP Zelda appreciation thread
>>738297583I don't blame you at all
>>738297489>>738297583dolphin is fine /t/ has magnets everywhere. get a VPN its braindead easy to find clients with subscription services
>>738296706Zeldablade Chronicles
>>738295096It's a fun game, I played through it twice, the Gamecube original + Wii U HD remaster. The only major downside is most enemies hit you for 1/4 of a heart, and you've got dozens, so there's essentially no challenge whatsoever. It's arguably the most braindead Nintendo game, it's virtually impossible to run out of HP, because enemies deal so little damage and every third kill/broken jar will drop a heart, so you're essentially playing with god mode on.
>>738297489Right here bro https://github.com/HarbourMasters/Shipwrighthttps://github.com/HarbourMasters/2ship2harkinianhttps://vimm.net/vault/N64
>>738297674without i mean
>>738295096I don't actually remember anything of it, beyond running around some boring sewers/dungeons as a wolf with Midna in tow. Wind Waker had a thousandfold the impact on me.
>>738297726>hours and hours of empty water and playing a song over and over every time you want to moveShut up lol
>>738296889>it has heartevery single zelda game does.
>>738295096>memory oatQrd on this zoomer speak?
>>738295096i've never been filtered so hard by a tedious prologue .zero fucking redeemable quality
>>738297768No. The game I grew up with > the game you grew up with.
>>738297874People say this shit about TP's maybe 15 min long prologue, then turn around and praise Okami as the best Zelda clone when has non-stop cutscenes and hand-holding for like half of the game.
>>738297883The game I grew up with was OoT
>>738297937Okami would be better remembered if it had a waifu
>>738298047It does thoughbeit
>>738297820oat is an acronym like the one you just used, go on put your brain to work I'm sure you can figure it out from context clues
>>738297489Bro just get a used Wii on ebay for $30, jailbreak it (it's braindead easy and takes like 10 minutes) and then you can play the entire GCN+Wii library natively.Also the Wii2HDMI adapters work great and add basically zero lag
>>738297937>15 minutesnigga what
>>738298476Until you get the wooden sword, then you're gaming.
>>738298109the thumbnail looks like an angry bearded man wearing a turban who is sticking out his tongue
>>738298541nah, you're not gaming shit until you unlock hyrule field and even then it's yet another fucking wolf segment and boring ghost rescue or whatever before fire temple
>>738296587absolutely not. Play OoT or ALTTP
>5 hr tutorial>bug hunting>wolf sections>Terrible pacing>Ganondorf was behind it all!>Just as easy as Wind Waker>Dull ugly version of OoT>Terrible Anime story>Useless items>Dungeons are glorified set pieces>Overworld is somehow worse than the N64 games.
>>738298791wrong on all counts
>>738298791But Midna
>>738298791>Overworld is somehow worse than the N64 games.i think that's the part that nailed it for me, hyrule field in oot isn't anything to brag about by itself yet it was so much better at conveying a sense of awe and thrill when first leaving the kokiro forest than tp fragmented and bland shit
>>738295096when i was a kid i thought it was gonna be a sword fighting game like from the wii sports resort minigame and hated it because of all the dialogue and puzzles when o just wanted to kill things Nowadays its my second favourite traditional 3d zelda games
>>738295096Should I play on max difficulty to get an enjoyable non braindead experience?
>>738295096>Twilight Princess Appreciation ThreadAppreciate THIS!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWbt6TwYFCcAnd THIS!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqQPgbqbE5g
TP is worse than OoT in basically every wayI liked the part where they made Hyrule Field 3x as big but just as empty
It seems to be the common opinion that between the two GC Zelda's, Wind Waker was the better one. But I've recently played them back to back and I can say pretty confidently that TP's better. Wind Waker's artstyle is charming but the sea overworld with most islands just being a bunch of empty rocks sucks and the triforce piece hunting is just terrible. Twilight Princess holds up much better. It's literally just better OOT.Both are too easy, though.
>>7382999062 different pc ports wth?I hope you guys give a thorough rundown of the differences whenever these shits release, I'd appreciate it.
>>738300713There's a lot more to interact with in Wind Waker and a lot more interesting side quests to do. I personally enjoyed a lot of the secrets involving the triforce hunt. The ghost pirate ship and discovering the underground cellar in the private oasis are highlights for me.
>>738300713TP has a bad introduction and gets good later, WW has a really strong start and falls apart later. So maybe WW leaves a better first impression on people. But I agree TP is the better game overall. They're both great though, it's pretty incredible we got two Zelda games of that scale on one system that manage to be very distinct from eachother.
>>738297073I agree that playing the game through the first three temples is a fucking slog. I quit before #3 in the HD version. I'll try harder to push through next time, because I remember enjoying the rest of the game.
I played all three versions of this game (Wii first), and I think the Gamecube one is the best overall. I like the unmirrored world, free camera, maybe some other things. I also think it looks better in SD. I don't like Tantalus's high res textures on the original geometry. There's probably other issues too that I can't put my finger on.
>>738295096Twilight Princess feels like a game that was 11/10 game 6 months before launch and then the lead dev clocked in one morning and said that they should make it a 5/10 because those games sell more.
>>738304678I'm pretty sure the lead dev Aonumale was clocked out for nearly the entire development of the game. Even the supposedly edgy cutscenes were outsourced.
>>738303819Dusk's ultimate goal is to rework the physics of the game so the game can natively run at a higher frame rate. Courage Reborn is what the Ship of Harkinian devs are working on. It has randomizer out the box. But it uses a "fake" higher frame rate interpolation like what Ship does.
I didn't read the thread but I've never been able to finish Twilight Princess. Midna is too annoying to deal with and the wolf mode bits are not fun and made me stop playing. Thanks for reading and caring.
>>738305141Hopefully one of these ports will let us turn Midna off. She's maybe the most annoying Zelda companion.
>>738304856Yeah he had wanted to make another Toon Link game because he doesn't like Link being cool for some reason, but was forced to change it because of the backlash WW got for its art style. Then he abandoned the game for awhile to work on Phantom Hourglass, and was obsessed with gimmicky shit like touch screen and motion controls, so he delayed the game so they could add waggle shit and release it on the Wii. The game's development was a bit of a mess. If you watch the initial E3 trailer it's clear they changed a lot. Still a pretty damn good game despite its flaws imo. Has some of the weakest parts of any Zelda game, but some of the best too.
>>738296587Lolno, in fact it's probably the absolute worst to begin with since it's mostly badly implemented takes on things previous games did far better and will spoil you on these things while giving a bad overall impression of what Zelda even is given how restrictive it as and how much of the world is 'fake' (i.e. it seems like you'd be able to interact with it more, but there will actually be nothing to do, in contrast with proper Zeldas that are normally far more interactive than you'd expect).
PWNED
>>738296587Lmao nopeBotw is the only good zelda game
>>738298109>boob window>AND a butt windowwe had it good
>>738308925We deserve this again
