Breath Of The Wild Sequel Producer Won't Say If You Can Play As Zelda
When Nintendo teased a sequel to Breath of the Wild at the end of yesterday’s Direct, it left everyone with one big question: Can you play as Zelda? Legendary series producer Eiji Aonuma knows the answer. He’s just not saying.kotaku.com
Interesting.The plan was that this game is a 2020 game, dont know if things changed since than, i didnt even know that its gonna be showen this E3.
What i heard was another game and that didnt happen, am not sure if that was bad source or that Nintendo changed their plan for the show.
Really? Why are people not asking him stuff like if the new overworld is radically changed from BOTW 1?

Cause people are focusing on wrong things. Link as the only playable character is fine!
I'm thinking 2020 to offset PS5 and Scarlet releases. They need something exciting to happen for them in that timeframe. The only thing that can go against new consoles releasing is Zelda.BOTW 2 looks like Holiday 2020 target to me. But it may be delayed.
Well, personally I don't want co-op in my Zelda games. Zelda is a singleplayer game first and foremost, but I would be cool with playing another character for a short time, for example in Wind Waker's Earth and Wind temple. The whole game centered around multiplayer or multiple characters like a MMORPG would ruin it for me.Cause people are focusing on wrong things. Link as the only playable character is fine!
I think the two most interesting things to ask right now from what we've seen is "is this game set in Hyrule and if so how much of the game world will be different from BotW?" and "you can see Zelda cooperating with Link in the trailer; what is her role in the game, and is she playable?". Just because you'd be fine with just Link (I'd also be "fine" with that, whatever that even means) doesn't mean it's not an interesting question to ask.
Blight of the Wild.I think "of the Wild" works for part of the subtitle, similar to "of the Tomb Raider" for this last trilogy.
So...
Legend of Zelda: Corruption of the Wild
Legend of Zelda: Dusk of the Wild
Or stealing from another poster:
Legend of Zelda: Death of the Wild
When he has the personality of a piece of cardboard no it's not as that's so easily swappable.
Me neither, though I'd love to see a spin-off where we can play as different Zelda characters with similar gameplay as the main games (so excluding Hyrule Warriors). Personally, I'd love to see a Triforce Heroes where you can choose to play as different Zelda characters.Well, personally I don't want co-op in my Zelda games.

Oh God I hope not...and doubt itThat is definitely DEMISE under the castle, WHICH IN THE PAST WAS SKYLOFT.
It HAS to be
For starters, if every Link is the spirit of the first, cursed by Demise, Hero reborn, how could could it be some Link and still be alive or whatever you call that state.
Secondly, the shadow on the wall looks a lot like Demise, being attacked by the arm that holds the body down. He has fangs and the same jewelry Ganondorf wears.
I think the real question is, whose arm is that?
I don't agree with this. Link is the only one that sees the shade and he fights him in a weird place disconnected from the world. It can pretty much be interpreted as him fighting a part of himself/his soul.Not sure if I understand you correctly. Do you mean how it's possible for two separate Links to exist simultaneously? Twilight Princess already did that, with the playable Link and the Hero's Shade as NPC.
It's really not.Cause people are focusing on wrong things. Link as the only playable character is fine!
You mean besides Smash, Spirit Tracks, Hyrule Warriors, and Cadence of Hyrule?Haha that is true, he does kind of look stiff 🤣
anyway, sure I wouldn't mind playing as Zelda for once but they been damn strict to never let that happen...
This makes a lot of sense and i haven't looked at it this way.Long hair has problems with clipping. If Zelda is playable and has many costumes they might have decided to give the animators a break and just do short hair.
Nah there well aware by now how many people want a playable Zelda(or a female Link) and how tired people are of her being a damsel.
We've had multiple threads in the past about this issue, and even multiple polls. It always come back to some 50/50 result, and Nintendo has said their opinion about that multiple times too.Nah there well aware by now how many people want a playable Zelda(or a female Link) and how tired people are of her being a damsel.
Showing her adventuring side by side with Link only to sideline her again would be a dick move.
Anyone who'd have a problem with playable Zelda can get over themselves.We've had multiple threads in the past about this issue, and even multiple polls. It always come back to some 50/50 result, and Nintendo has said their opinion about that multiple times too.
Zelda being a damsel in distress (which she isn't in multiple games) is a completely different debate and has nothing to do with her being playable or not.
whats the consensus on Zelda in BOTW? i dont think she is necessarily a Damsel in distressWe've had multiple threads in the past about this issue, and even multiple polls. It always come back to some 50/50 result, and Nintendo has said their opinion about that multiple times too.

Good argument.Anyone who'd have a problem with playable Zelda can get over themselves.

Looks like few people knew about BOTW2The plan was that this game is a 2020 game, dont know if things changed since than, i didnt even know that its gonna be showen this E3.

Legends of Localization uncovered it not that long after the game released. You should also note that the English-translation post-battle cutscenes contradict what's said when Ganon takes on his beast form, as this link points out - Zelda says "Ganon is gone for now".Yes, except I can't find anything to back that up. I'm seeing a few notes that say the japanese version and other languages were even more final on the ending, but that's Reddit and who knows how accurate that is.
Good argument.
I'm not sure you can blame game creators (or any kind for that matter) for wanting to stick with a single character as a main character (bolded because obviously playable segments don't count).
This is so cool! :-O
Developers can make choices based on something else than technical difficulties, yes.I don't think they're talking about developers thinking about technical difficulties as much as they are gamers who hate the thought of a playable Zelda lol

That's why they're game creators, and not just code monkeys (I say that as a dev).
Sure, but I'm not sure that the reason "I'd like her in" is an argument good enough in the same way.Nobody's disputing that, though lol. What that person said above--or at least what I think they said--is that if gamers or even devs think "ew I don't want to play as Zelda" rather than having an Actual Reason, they're ridiculous. Not "devs can and should make playable Zelda always and any excuse is stupid", y'know?

I keep saying it, Demise of the Wild. That Red haired mofo has taken over Ganondorf's malice and he is ffucking pissed.I think "of the Wild" works for part of the subtitle, similar to "of the Tomb Raider" for this last trilogy.
So...
Legend of Zelda: Corruption of the Wild
Legend of Zelda: Dusk of the Wild
Or stealing from another poster:
Legend of Zelda: Death of the Wild

I feel we'll get a trailer with the title at the game awards and gameplay laterDo you think it's possible that we will get a gameplay at Game Awards? They did it first first botw so maybe.

So it turns out that not only the king and Zelda keep their diaries, Link also has a diary of his own - the quest journal. In the JPN ver of BOTW journal entries are written in first person/Link's perspective, whereas in the US ver it is written in the game/system's perspective.
For example, in the entry after locating all 13 memories it goes something like this:
JPN (I) remembered all the things we've been through. Even just a little bit sooner, (I) wish to see her smiles again with my own eyes
compared to
US You've visited all 13 locations shown in the pictures, go save her as quickly as you can to ease her burden.
Breath of the Wild is basically the final stop on the timeline, in a traditional sense. Ganon is reduced to nothing but pure malice, probably unable to be properly resurrected, and also likely not being able to die. Unless of course Demise escapes his imprisonment and releases ganon of the curse. Coincidentally Demise's prison is also the Master Sword, which we see in the trailer. I find it highly unlikely they let us start the game with it in tact as well. And with how weakened it was for 100 years, who is to say Demise didn't use his connection to ganondorf to properly come back?Well keep saying it but the red haired mofo is Ganondorf and Ganondorf is the reincarnation of Demise.
So I'm unsure what you are saying exactly...
Seriously. That's of way more interest in terms of gameplay possibilities.Really? Why are people not asking him stuff like if the new overworld is radically changed from BOTW 1?

Correct, the argument "I want her in" is poor. You aren't the creative force behind this art. What you "want" is to continue to be entitled.
When did art become what I want versus what the crafter/creator is trying to evoke/reveal/explain?
This is the world we live in though.... The vanity of individualism.
Zelda isn't a damsel in distress and for the last few games has made the conscious effort to sacrifice herself/freedom to battle Ganon.
Zelda may not be able to beat Ganon on her own but when has Link?
They are characters in a story how the creators wish to use her is their decision.
I personally love playing females in games (more specifically fighting games) yet I have no desire to play as Zelda.
