I don't get it, Hyrule field was the worst part of the game because it's empty as shit. So why is it then when they had the opportunity to remake it from scratch 28 years later, they still made it empty as shit again?
Insider here, it's all OP's fault.
>>749062910How is the left more visibly clear?
>>749064072cleaner lines give easier points to focus on as well as making more effective use of silhouettes. There's more gained by having a big blue sky back drop instead of seating hyrule in the middle of a circle of mountains.
>>749064072There's no fog
>emptyOh yeah just because you didn't played the game it means anyone have to take your shitty opinion about it
>>749062910Why is the sky cyan? Global warming?
>>749062910>that right imageDisgusting.
>>749064334Explain what's in it then faggot. Go on, don't be shy.
>>749064375Goron warming

>>749062910somehow the right looks MORE empty than the left, it's weird man
>>749062910>still no grass rendered far awayThe more things change the more they stay the same
>>749062910>Hyrule field was the worst part of the game because it's empty as shitThings zoomers and thirdies say that make me want to open their minds, in a physical sense
>>749065140you almost feel sorry for them and the sheer amounts of sour grapes they have>hyrule field, the wide open place that was 99.9% of players' WOAH.jpg moment of amazement they'll always remember>zoomers: actually this fucking sucks and was the worst part of the gamelol. lmao.
>>749065140what do you think the worst part of the game is?I play the game more than once a year, so I'd say the field is good for the scale of the world, but it is boring and barren.I think I'd say the 10 poes for the bottle is the worst part, but thats also mostly the fields fault.
>>749064994>>749065140>>749065305Why do boomers always defend dogshit? It's like the worse something is graphically or gameplay wise, the more they have to dickride it, and gaslight you that's it good.
>>749064965Global goron?
>>749065305Man you're gonna love this amazing new game called breath of the wild, which takes that WHOA moment and builds one of the greatest zelda games of all time around it.
>>749066363It didn't come out during their childhood so they'll hate it since new bad old good.
>>749062910What is it that you wanted to do in Hyrule Field?
>>749066363lol.but to be serious, the field was like that initial title drop in botw when link first leaves the cave and looks out over the plateu."check out the scale of shit we can do now!"
>>749066229Why is it that people think it's a criticism of OoT to say the main gateway hub is empty, when the whole point of Hyrule Field in the game is just to be a gateway that connects the world and literally nothing else?The point of OoT was never that it was some sprawling open world game. It wasn't even its quality back in 98. A lot of dum-dums literally played Zelda ever since then making retarded assumptions about it.
>>749066630Yeah, it's the whole point of BotW to explore a vast empty field.It was not the point of OoT to explore a vast empty field, and it's literally not what you're doing 90% of the time.
>>749065905It's not that it isn't "the worst part of the game", it's that it isn't even bad. For all the complaints about being "empty as shit", you fail to realize that it's pretty small for your purposes. Kokiri Forest to Hyrule Castle Town is probably your longest trip through Hyrule Field until you reach Adult Link, and you have three detours along the way to make it feel shorter. Once you do warp forward, you get Epona, so all the travel through is actually fun. Hell, you even get to jump the bridge with Epona at Gerudo Valley. But at no point are you trudging through the length of it.
When making this, were the dev team inspired by their Hyderabad air quality when they opened the window?
>>749066229I will defend the OoT remake.
>>749066883Shut up, eric.
If it was full of shit it wouldn't be a field.
>>749066886Why didn't they just go easy on the gas? Like seriously? They could have looked at any remake recently and been like this gas doesn't look great why don't we approach it differently? They are making the same mistakes as any remake before.
>>749066982I don't care about that.
>>749062910Gassisters, are we finally winning!?
>>749067069I mean I don't even disagree entirely about remakes, I kind of like 1:1 remakes but damn that looks rough. It looks like a heavy layer of smoke/anti soul gas was placed over the scenery, awful.
>>749062910oot3d will remain the superior remake, they just have to release an HD version of it
>>749062910Remake looks soulless.
>>749062910the redpill is they both look like shit
>>749066790>save and quit after water temple>have to cross the entire field to get to gerudo valley>literally nothing happensIts padding. At least it was haunted as child link.
>>749067287and dont be a stupid umm ackshually autist and point out that shadow temple is next.
>>749062910its an adventure game not a game for retarded spazzes
>>749066665>it shit on purpose so it's okay!Fuck off. If a modern AAA sony game did this you'd be shitting on it 24/7 on this board and you know it.
>>749062910Because it’s a shitty cash grab that probably wasn’t even made by japs.
>>749064072Never played the game award or Never played the game on original hardware?
>>749062910
>>749066958Then make the field smaller then.
>>749062910OP is the exact kind of faggot who will defend movie games where you walk slowly behind another character talking endlessly, move down a narrow corridor slowly, sit through endless cutscenes, and have automated sections that play the game for you. But taking 45 seconds to cross Hyrule Field (yes that's how long it takes) is crossing the line! You'll basedface over BOTW wasting your time through its endless padding but when a game actually respects your time you get bad. OP has never been more gay than right at this moment.
>>749067527But you love those, ACfangfox.
>>749067725>You'll basedface over BOTW wasting your time through its endless paddingSnoy detected.You and OP are both snoys.
>>749067725>Nigga defending a lazy UE5 remake
>>749067574You hate gaming.
>>749062910and fill it up with what, BotW shrines?
>>749067809Stop talking to yourself, snoy.
>>749067725
>>749062910Hyrule Field in OoT doesn't need to be changed because it's tiny as shit. Its just a hub for the different areas, it's not an open world.
>>749062910>the entrance hall in resident evil was the worst part of the game because it was empty as shit el oh elthis os how you retards sound like
>>749067615The right looks better and you know it.
>>749067734>no uKys
>>749068107saturation is fucked making the middle and backgrounds blend with the foreground but otherwise yeah all the crap laying around is better.
>>749068148I'm afraid I can't do that, ACfangfox.
what if instead of crawling, link did the AAA game sideways shimmy through a crevice?
>>749068331What if he did a running slide through the hole
>>749068331same shit
>>749062910Who cares? It only takes like a minute or two to cross, less once you have epona, and otherwise makes the world feel bigger/more real.Plus there's still a few little secrets around the place.
>>749068107this is racist
>>749067527no, people complain about Ubisoft towers and generic loot not what OoT did
My cakes will burn!
>>749068586>Who cares?People who like actual gameplay.
>>749068107Visual noise for the sake of noise isn't good game design.If there was a large boulder in Hyrule Field, you KNEW it meant something and there was a reason to care.Now you need yellow paint to distinguish the """secret""" area.
idk i never mind it.
>>749068676You people complain about games having be big empty spaces in them all the time faggot.
>>749068779>actual gameplayLike what? A 20 minute cutscene where you're lectured about being a better man?
>>749068779How is this not 'actual gameplay' ?Would you discount basically half of BoTW for also just having a lot of running around in open space?
>>749068816I think you're right on principle, but that rock in the centre left is going to have nothing there.
>>749068816Oh look it's the noisefag again.
>>749068861Gottem!
>>749062910They need to fill the field with ubisoft towers, rolling ball puzzles, and the same 3 enemies copy-pasted with different colors to denote difficulty. 10/10 IGN
>>749068962Shut up, eric.
>>749068861>Like what?Combat, puzzles, side quests. You play Zelda games to just run through empty fields?>>749068874>How is this not 'actual gameplay' ?Holding the control stick forward for 5 minutes is not gameplay.
>>749069087So any time where you travel at all in a game isn't actual gameplay? You have to be engaged in combat or doing puzzles literally from start to finish?
>>749068961Making your samefagging less obvious
>>749062910It doesn't need any more than what it has. It isn't even that big
>>749069159What do you think of the Ocarina of Time and Star Fox remakes?
>>749069140>So any time where you travel at all in a game isn't actual gameplay?If there's nothing in it for an extended period of time yes. That why you faggots bitch about BOTW so much, but I guess when and old game does it too it doesn't count.
>>749069203You're a schizo.
>>749069210> an extended period of timea minute and a half is 'an extended period of time' to you? Hyrule field is tiny even in the remake.
>>749069309Answer the question.
>>749062910man the perspective and sense of scale in the 1998 game was much better
>>749069348Why does wanting a bad part of an old game to improved upset you so much?
>>749069140>So any time where you travel at all in a game isn't actual gameplay?awful debating anon. apply yourself.
>>749069348compared to the rest of the gameplay, yes. I dont have to wait for dungeon doors to slowly rotate open for 20 seconds each.The game even makes a joke of slow waiting when you're excited to do something with king zora. The field outlives its purpose after just a couple visits.
>>749069674Why do you want to """"fix"""" nonissues while ruining every other part of the game with terrible graphics, godawful art direction, game ruining accessibility features for babies, hand holding, pandering, pointless and terrible voice acting, needless expositing through unskippable cutscenes written by tranny activists, and as much poison gas as any jeet could ever desire?
>>749069897not that guy but i never ever asked for them to do all that other shit. I'm not buying the game.I don't even like the block speed push increase in ship.
>>749069674Because I don't think running for a minute or two around a world thats intended by the developers to seem big and real is a bad thing. I think you may just have a really short attention span if it bothers you that much.
>>749064274There is though, and the game makes heavy use of it, it's just done very well.
>>749069824I dunno, a certain someone once pitched a legendary fit about how long it takes to open a chest in Ocarina of TimeAre you gonna pitch a fit about that too?
>>749070134yeah that's what I was obviously referencing you obnoxious faggot.
>>749062910> it's empty as shitHave you ever seen a field?
>>749067645They did exactly that when it was mid development, and compacted the parts you'd actually need to walk across. The field is exactly the size they wanted it to be to balance the impression of vastness with the need to go through it every so often.
>called a field>no crops>no grazing animals>just barren, except for the hundreds of child skeletonshm. Are hyruleans retarded? More like hyrule lawn.
>>749069674Because if they fix it, it's an admission that OoT isn't this perfect game every fag pretends it is
>>749070665you need a hobby man
>>749070561A field doesn't specifically need to be farmland. It just needs to be basically any large open stretch of land that has grass/vegetation but not many trees.
Crazy how the OoT remake is going to sell triple what Basedverine sold with only a fraction of the budget and dev time
>>749070061>>749069897>nonissuesThis is history revisionism at it's finest.
>>749070378>The field is exactly the size they wantedWhat they wanted isn't good.
>>749071009It being "not as good as it could have been" barely impacts the overall quality of the game for two reasons.Firstly, the field serves it's intended purpose very well and gives you a good impression of the world space that both makes it seem vast while hiding the total extent of the world, a place to roam around on Epona, a number of (sometimes very substantial) secrets to find and exists as a kind of 'event arena' for stuff to happen and to allow transition and connection between places when something special is going on, and partly sets the tone of the game.Secondly, you only spend very, very little time in the field itself, hardly more than 5% of the game if that at all, and it's a place you only explore if you really, personally want to. Spending actually huge portions of playtime going through 'connective tissue' is a good part of why WW and BotW are weaker games than OoT, they emphasize wandering and stumbling upon things too much, while offers a place where the vast sparseness contrasts with the compactness of most of the rest of the areas in the world and offers a different kind of space.So it's like, yes, the field could have had more stuff in it, and that would have been better, but it not being like that is such a minor fault that it's barely worth complaining about compared to the actual substantial weaknesses the game has.
>>749072005thanks anon. I really like your post and your comparison to WW really highlights how it couldve been worse. It's ocean fucking sucked and was carried by the music.
>>749068927Plenty of people make the same complaint.
>>749062910I mean, it's called Hyrule FIELD not Hyrule SOMETHING INTERESTING.It's like you've never seen a field in real life.
>>749070965Nothing revisionist about it. I didn't think the field was too big as a kid and I don't think its too big now, just because you need something to spike your attention every 5 seconds doesn't make that the norm.
>>749066363Too bad they forgot to make botw an actual Zelda game
>>749066229fuck off retard
>>749070916And get this, it has a better story to tell.
>>749065305Sorry gramps, it's not 1996 anymore. I can appreciate that it might've been an amazing feat to accomplish such a sense of scale with the hardware at the time, but it's been surpassed by many orders of magnitude by now, even by newer Zelda games.
>>749064945Not him but you can hunt all those green ghosts there depending on if you find the right spots
>>749074497>search for nonmarked spawn points of the same 10 enemy to get a bottle>if youre not on a horse, they dont count either>can hold a max of three at a time, guaranteeing a minimum of 4 tripsworst sidequest in the entire game
