What the fuck were they thinking?
>>738943184>YABBA DABBA DOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
it was an over-correction after the controversial toon link era
>>738943184Furry audience was growing rapidly and nintendo wanted to cash in
they wanted to make a kino direct sequel to ocarina of time, and they accomplished it
This cutscene really isn't that bad. I don't understand the reaction to it at all.
>>738943475Its creepy.
>>738943184>me entering the Midna tunnel
>>738943615Yeah it's supposed to be, you dipshit. It's a vision given to link by the fused shadows.
>>738943184they wanted to bank off the creepypasta trend
>>738943729ben drowned already exists you retard
>>738943184This is a dark twist in the legend of hyrule from Zelda oot.
>>738943615That's a negative?
>>738943184I think all adventure games should be a little scary at some points.
>>738946042NOT
>>738943184
>>738943184What gets me is mostly just how left field it is and how it ultimately has nothing to do with Link or so forth, it's just the spirit giving an exposition warning about a plot device that gets yoinked an hour later anyway. Like it's so OoT that we had to have an exposition dump about the Twilight folks either way, but it also kinda felt like the spirit being a bit too much of a dick towards the person that isn't even the one being tempted technically.
I honestly think traumatic moments like these in childhood are special. I grew up watching a shit ton of horror movies that got left on TV when I was way too young to watch them and I look back on it fondly. I wish my life was still so exciting that I couldn't go to sleep afraid that sadako was going to come out of the TV and get me
>>738946490I was going to post this...
>>738946490TP is my favorite game but this is one of those times where I actually agree with this image. I don't dislike the cutscene but people blow its impact hilariously out of proportion.
nobody tell this fag about majora's mask transformation cut-ins he'll shit himself
>>738943184Isn't majora's mask literally the same with those transformations
>>738946042>this made boomers shit themselves in sheer terror
Oh no be careful link too much power = corrupt oooooh darkness darkness upside down girlfriend
yeah that scene where midna makes him cum his brains out was really inappropriate.
>>738943184I always found it hilarious how pointless this entry was. >introduce new race, enemies and so ondestroy the only way to ever see them again what the hell was the point? why bother with tp when the story is so self contained it does practically nothing compared to oot, alttp and so on?
>>738949485>why bother with tp when the story is so self containedYou are a nigger and you do not belong here.
>>738943184>Lets make a kick ass traditional Zelda game for Zelda fansbased Nintendo
>>738949485what are you talking about anon? it's a direct sequel to OoT, it's one of the few Zelda games that directly draws its canon from a previous game
>>738949485Yeah, Oracle of Seasons is pointless.
>>738943297But I much prefer this to Toon Link and Windwaker.
So the Twilight Realm is just Australia
>>738943475Its tone is pretty off from the rest of the game. For some reason it focuses on how it can corrupt people despite that never coming up again. It's just kind of a weird cutscene for a macguffin that isn't really that important in the long run.
>>738943184Giving people what they kept asking for.
>>738943184idk but the scene where it's raining Llia's was great phsycosexual symbolism, that to some extent Link sees Llia love and sex as a reward for his heroism, that she'll make it worth it in the end.
>>738943184Hacknuma wasn't thinking, he just wanted to get the project over with>>738947078Context is everything. Kinozumi made Link look in pain because he's literally fusing body and spirit of other dead species
>>738943842Now he doesn't retard
delda should be scary
>>738943184they saw that people loved MM, but they couldn't understand whythey still can't understand why to this very day
>>738943467This. And here's links for a native PC port with 4k textures and UI.https://github.com/TwilitRealm/dusklight/releaseshttps://www.henrikomagnifico.com/zelda-twilight-princess-4kI'm playing it right now. It's kino.
>>738954873It doesn't help that they forbid the best Zelda director from making another game again.
>>738954879>4K textures>looks like shit and makes a 20 year old game take 40 gigs of VRAM
>>738943184Midna still sucking after he came?
>>738955331>makes a 20 year old game take 40 gigs of VRAMI'm playing it on my shitbox laptop and still getting 200+ fpsTry harder
>>738954873Everyone understands why, it's because you're tasteless retards who wanna feel special for championing a niche game. You're like Earthboundfags before every pretentious dipshit latched onto that game, except MM is actual dogshit so it'll never rise beyond cult status.
>>738955486the faggot doth protest too much, methinks
>>738943184>The Link you played in OoT and LttP? He died alone and a virgin, he didn't save the day, he didn't do much of anything actually and now his skeleton is here to be sad about how much of a loser he was
>>738955654>The Link you played in OoT and LttP?Were never once implied to be the same one.
>>738943184I want a Zaelda game that lets your choices matter and has some RPG elements. Like, you could get the Master Sword on the "canon" route. Or you could get the Biggoron sword in another, or become Fierce Deity Link in another.
>>738955770That released in 2017
>>738954997>I took that as a compliment since Miyamoto is a boring retardPretty ballsy to say that about your CEO.
>>738955770>avoid picking up heart piece>"wow my choices really matter"
>>738955654You play as OoT Link's descendant which you'd know that if you faggots actually played vidya instead of being terminally online here, sniffing glue, and clapping your hands. You can't exactly die alone and a virgin if you have descendants, not that you'd know anyway.
Does Zelda have the biggest poser infestation of Nintendo's big names? It's always>hey, true fan here, botw is literally identical to zelda 1>us true fans know mm is actually link's le heckin grimdark dying dream>did you know that ganon isn't really evil because of demise's curse and that one time he liked wind, only fake fans don't accept thatIt makes me wonder if anyone actually plays these games. Either the fanbase is primarily secondaries or it's primarily retarded.
>>738956374Zelda is probably the most mainstream, yeah. Tendies latch onto it and pretend to understand the depths and nuance of the games without playing them. They play BotW, find the little references in there to past games and read about them online but they don't really understand them because they never touched the games nor will they ever because they're not BotW. They only consume whatever slop Nintendo is shitting out these days and I hate to use that term "slop" but that's genuinely all they're making nowadays. You've got the new DK that's just a button mashing simulator with even more memberberries for a generation that hasn't even touched the games to begin with, you've got Pokopia which is just a Pokeslop of Dragon Quest Builders, now you've got the Mii game that's just a cheap content generator. But back on topic. Yeah, they don't play Zelda games, they played BotW. They won't touch a real Zelda game because all they know is tendie slop. They're posers, losers, stick out like a sore thumb, and they're Nintendo fans, not Zelda fans.
>>738956374Funniest thing is when they start rambling about the lore and storyline in between the games like nintendo gives a single shit about it and it wont be retconned next game anyway.
>>738956374>Does Zelda have the biggest poser infestation of Nintendo's big names?Yeah like right here. >>738956840
>>738956895I don't play or participate in zelda game discussions
>>738955654>>738956284It can’t be links descendant because he becomes the shade after Majora. Non kokiri can’t leave the woods after they enter. So unless he somehow did the deed with saria the bloodline ended after MM
>>738943184This game and Skyward Sword were so bad that I have no desire to play Zelda games made after Wind Waker now. I played BotW for like an hour and gave up on it since I didn’t want to waste my time on Nintendo’s answer to Skyrim. I can replay OoT and Majora’s Mask on Switch anyway.
>>738957105And yet here you are
>>738957128>Non kokiri can’t leave the woods after they enterGanondorf shoved Gohma eggs up the Deku Tree's roothole and casually skedaddled after the fact.
>>738957182Making a remark laughing at the kind of fans, if you want to go into deep discussions about some loreshit you're free to do so.
>>738957128He pumped a baby into Malon when he went to the ranch to get Epona before MM.
>>738957128You see Kokiri leave the forest at the end of OoT which you'd know if you actually played it.
>>738943184Never mind that. What the fuck were they thinking with these?
>>738957387reread what I said
>>738957535It's alien looking.That's it.
>>738949485So many Zelda games are one and done retard.Whats the point of the Minish? It's in one game.Think before you speak next time tard.
>>738943184They were thinking kino
>>738949485god you are dumb
>>738957554I don't need to. I know your gotcha you were fishing for.
>>738957535>wouldn't it be funny if cuccos used to be the dominant species
>>738957128Dude, we can see where the Hero's Shade is buried.
>>738958694I can't believe the Hero of Time was cursed to become a button.
>>738957535>Saggy cucco tits with weird nipplesThe amount of stuff with weird nipples in this game is appalling.
>>7389434241000% this
>>738957535Weren't these guys based on some baroque painting?
>>738946042I don’t know how I got through this game at 8 years old
>>738950609>despite that never coming up againIt's Zant's whole thing. Before Ganondorf gave him power he was weak and incompetent. Ganondorf took advantage of his frustrations and used that to fuel his own recovery. Power corrupted Zant, the game just falls short of COMPLETELY spelling it out for the player.
>>738958694No you can't.
>>738943184>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
>>738943615the problem is that it wasn't creepy at all
>>738943297Toon Link was only controversial before the game came out. When WW actually dropped, people loved it.
>>738962515>. When WW actually dropped, people loved it.except for the litany of valid complaints people had about it
>>738943184>we want to make KINO
>>738957535they bring order to a chaotic abstract dungeon
>>738957535That's what the people of skyloft will evolve into, like kokiris evolved into koroks :)
>>738962515>When WW actually dropped, people loved itNo. No they didn't. You're full of shit.
>>738943184Aonuma thought it would be mature an edgy and ended up being complete cringeworthy shit. Another reason why Aonuma is a hack
>>738962991Yes they did.https://www.gamespot.com/games/the-legend-of-zelda-the-wind-waker/reviews/?sortBy=oldestAnd these are user reviews, not critics.
>>738943184The guy who made the cutscenes was just weird and Nintendo let him run wild for some reason, they said as much in interviews.That weird part where Zant snaps his own neck to kill Ganondorf was also his doing, and when Aonuma was asked the significance of it in an interview he said it was all that guy's idea and he personally didn't know the meaning behind it.If only the full game was interesting as that guy thought it was.
sex
>>738961485>the game just falls short of COMPLETELY spelling it out for the playerThe GC games really struggle to just say what they want to say. Wind Waker makes the "Tetra becomes Zelda" scene out to be a triumphant moment with the ALTTP jingle and everything, but then at the last second the king goes>ACKSHULLY I WAS JUST AS BAD AS GANON THE WHOLE TIME SO I WILL DESTROY HYRULE except i'm in the right for doing this because i feel like i am you're welcome btw
>>738943184>BUUUUUUUUUUURP
>>738957128>Non Kokiri can't leave the woods after they enterLink did it at least three times canonically before that.
>>738961485Yeah but that had nothing to do with the fused shadow. In fact the fused shadow is mostly used for good. I don't think a a theme as simple as "power corrupts" was really the main focus of the scene.
>>738949485because they were going to make a sequel but then didn't
>>738963141No they fucking didn't you retarded zoomer fuck. The game nearly killed the entire franchise.
>>738963503>gets proven wrong>LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOUBased retard.
>>738963405Source on that? I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that the only thing coming down the pipeline was some sort of Wii-exclusive "enhanced edition" of Twilight Princess that they were planning but then they just decided to make Link's Crossbow Training instead.
>>738963674Shiggy asked for a new story in the TP world. Obviously, the team assumed he wanted a sequel. He proceeded to wait until they were making plans before personally murdering every member of the dev team with a Wii Zapper.Source: I was the Wii Zapper. My bad.
>>738963674https://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/wii/crossbow/0/1/Miyamoto was looking into it but the dev team kept wanting more so Miyamoto scrapped it.
>>738963858>>738963891Ah, okay. I misremembered it.
>>738943184"Zelda" before BoTW was glorified snoyslop. The exception is the original Zelda.
>>738963639You didn't prove anybody wrong you retarded fuck. All you posted was some review like it matters. You're just a retard without the based.
>>738963858Yup i'm glad that he is in movie slop hell now.
>>738943424It was a good balance, non-anthro furry AND thicc imp, something for everyone
>>738943184>what if we made ludo kino of the highest order
>>738943184In the manga they replaced this bullshit with Dark Link bullshit instead.
>>738963335You don't understand, Link ONLY had the Triforce of Courage. Sure, it's 1/3 of the highest divine power in the world that occasionally protects against whatever it feels like protecting against. Sure, MM ends with Link smiling as he finds the light of day and rides his way out of the forest. He didn't get Navi back so he is LE STALFOS!!!!!!!!!!Please ignore that the Shade is literally just a skull in full armor unlike every Stalfos ever up to and including TP's own, the video essays that programmed this belief into me didn't acknowledge that so you're not allowed to notice that I didn't even look at the character I'm talking about.Please ignore that the Lost Woods is stated to turn kids into Skull Kids rather than Stalfos, that would expose me for being a retarded secondary that doesn't play Zelda games.
>>738943184facts: zelda was never good until botw, botw/totk are the only good zelda games
>>738964410Adult gigachad(no beard) link when
>>738964729I think the Shade's skeletal appearance reflects on how OoT link felt about his life. He didn't literally turn into a stalfos, but he does feel like some part of him died in those woods, and that shines through in how his lingering spirit looks. You know?
>>738943184>when you nut but she still suckin.
>>738963398The Fused Shadow is a glorified shonen powerscaling tool in this game. It was super crazy dangerous powerful when the Twili discovered it, but it's not as powerful as Ganondorf so Zant didn't care about it, except it kinda sorta was powerful enough to compete with Ganondorf's magic in his sub-reformed/recently reformed state, and EVEN THEN it still took the Master Sword to properly deal with him. Either way, the goddesses feared the Fused Shadows, Zelda and Midna feared Ganonzant, and the sages feared Ganondorf. It's all power scaling bullshit.
>>738943184>yfw 8.8
>>738964729but isn't a bunch of the theory that death mountain in TP is the moon where it collided on a failed timeline?
>>738957535I never noticed their eyes were literal assholes
>>738965982Not an unfair score. TP is a bit derivative and constrained, but like nearly every Zelda at the time of its release it is an insanely well polished product for its time.
>>738965606He has more of a zombified appearance than a skeletal one. His face is mummified. Regardless, he's a spirit and not any sort of Stalfos or Redead. He flickers in between transparent and solid.
>>738965891The Interlopers made the Fused Shadow, they didn't discover it. It was the entire reason that the Goddesses cast them into the Twilight and they became the precursor to the Twili.
>>738965606>>738966341
Twilight Princess would have been better if the Twilight Mirror was already fixed and you go and beat Zant there and then he reveals he got his power from Ganon, then you go on some sort of triforce or element temples and then beat Ganon. Mirror shards to beat zant to beat ganon felt rushed. What I propose would have been a nice midpoint.
I wonder if we're ever going to get more details on the Hyrule Civil War.
>>738957535>Hey, what if we made a race of literal bird people? >Brilliant!
>>738968340They took the Rito, put them in a more realistic artstyle then made them even more bird-like.
>>738957535Sphinx but chicken body
>Hot as fuck Queen fish>They kill her off Fuck you
>>738965891I don't even understand what you're complaining about. The fused shadow is bad because its power level is neither obvious nor entirely mysterious but instead left with some wiggle room?

>>738976870A GTX 1080 demolishes it. I would say as long as you have a 2015+ GPU, it should do well.

>>738966561>>738943184Did link die a virgin or did he at least smash before suffering
>>738962584only real complaint that came well after it released with the Tri-force quest padding, if you had tortured me to get me to find anything wrong with the game after I finished it I wouldn't have had an answer to give you back then I didn't even think twice about the quest
>>738943184People give shit to Star Fox for remaking the same game for years.As if Ocarina of Time is not on 3DS as a remake, and Twilight Princess is also a pretty much a remake of Ocarina of Time.Twilight Princess it's almost the same as Ocarina of Time if it wasn't for the wolf stuff.(And some fuckers even say that the wolf stuff was the worst part,when it was the most new thing that you'd get from it.)So, Nintendo (and not things like Rareware) have been doing the same gameswith their main first party series for years.And maybe people are focusing a lot on Star Fox doing that,to avoid admitting that Nintendo has been doing the same gamesfor years, while pretending to be the innovating ones around.Nintendo (blind) fans do not like it when something it's good.If they're used to shit, they hate it if a decent or normal game comes out."Wait a minute, why is this not shit as always?"
>>738980091Just look at Pokemon.Pokemon has been the same shit and even getting worse for years.If they do something new it's hated.When everything's the same despite being bad, it keeps selling and they keep making them.Every 3d Mario, it's mostly Mario 64 in "another" place. With maybe 1 new gimmick per game.
>>738980091>line break charlength schizohell yeah mothafucka
>>738976870I have everything turned up on a 5070 Ti mobile at 2560x1600 and it gets around 80-90 FPS average. Not sure if that's normal or not. In newer games, I tend to get similar framerates with everything at max or at least high and the main issue I run into is VRAM limitations.
>>738943615It wasn't. It was pretentious and pointless. Redeads on wind waker were way creepier than anything on TP.
>>738975883don't give notboogie ideas
>>738943184he looks like telma just sat on his face
>>738980091>give shit to Star Fox for remaking the same game for years.except they haven't been able to do that once the entire time since 64they always try to pack gimmicks into the games that are fucking terrible
>mfw i cum inside midna
>>738943184My first Zelda game. It was awesome even if I get the complaints around the level design.
Would midna have blue labia or orange labia?
>>738966341>the part in the manga where the hero's shade gets his rematch with ganondorf>ganon shitting his pants in fear and anger>zeldas panties barely containing a waterfallit was kino
>>738985415Realistically it would be a normal pink but blue is a more exotic contrast.
Are there any mods that add a vagina, anus, and nipples to Midna (Shorstack)?
>>738943184>What the fuck were they thinking?The same thing they were thinking when they made TOTK, "I don't actually want to make a Zelda game." Which is why both are just largely carbon copies of a praised Zelda entry, but the original characters and their story take center stage while the actual stars of the franchise largely take a back seat. The primary difference is that Midna, Zant, and the Twili are actually good and interesting characters, unlike Rauru and the Zonai.
>>738956754>They play BotW, find the little references in there to past games and read about them online but they don't really understand themWhat are koroks? Are they the true form of kokiris? They're the only beings in the lost woods, yet there's a lake named after Saria
>>738943184its the worst zelda game.but normies like it the most.i never understand why normies always like the worst one of everything.
>>738943297>it was an over-correction after the controversial toon link eraand yet that one was the actual best one. Wind Waker is the best Zelda. it was hated at the time
>"Noooo midna, don't vore me with your anus plea-ACK"
>>738987320WW's too slapped together and incoherent to be the best one. It looks pretty but it's clearly rushed, stuck between a shoddy execution of both new ideas (Triforce quest comes to mind) and old ones (Greatfish Isle pearl, for example). All it really has is its aesthetics.
>>738987287Normalfags like BotW the most. That's clear as day.
>>738987287This, but the subject is Wind Waker.
