    I have something to say;
    1. Thoose aircuts are concept art from TOTK. A book with various cds and a special edition of the game was announced a while ago on the my Nintendo store of Japan.
    2. The devs considered putting Zelda as the main character in both BOTW and TOTK, but couldn't because they didn't have the proper context of setup. Even so she plays an essential role in the history, which shows the interest of putting her in front of the line.
    3. It doesn't have to be a Spinoff, Zelda fits along with link in any type of Zelda game.

    • @TheGravityShifter
      @TheGravityShifter 5 месяцев назад +8

      Yeah, and in both BotW and TotK she's been working hard herself, though the Former she was basically imprisoned on her own to keep Ganon temporarily sealed. But imagine if we explored early Hyrule as Zelda in TotK where she was active and doing things. Play as Zelda and let Link do his adventures on his own while we do something else as Zelda.

      Well, he got the design and details for The Joker’s reveal trailer and appearance for MultiVersus correct in the last couple weeks, and the design was correct over a year in advance. He also was correct about the Mario RPG remake (although Zippo had posted about it shortly around that time), and he was also right about saying that he was confident that Banjo & Kazooie were getting into Smash MONTHS before they were revealed, around the time of the infamous “Grinch Leak.” Plus, with a couple of the things he got wrong, he wholeheartedly admitted to being wrong (although I think at least one thing other than The Joker in MultiVersus was still true, but it was revealed at a later date than thought). He’s also repeatedly explicitly said when theorizing about something happening or how it could happen is, in his own words, “100% pure speculation” and that nothing is confirmed, and that we should just “wait and see how things turn out” to see what happens and if it turns out to be true or not.

    Here's how you do it: replicate Zelda 1986 BACKWARDS!
    You start out with full hearts and all items. You enter one of the nine dungeons, place a TriForce piece, hide away a weapon, and bait Gannon's monsters with a heart piece to seal the dungeon.
    So the game gets harder because you lose items, hearts, and TriForce pieces! Not because the monsters scale. It'll be innovative as you paint yourself into a corner.

      This I agree with. From interviews with the team it’s clear that Nintendo just can’t make heads or tails of anything their fanbase wants or why they want it in the first place. I mean- they literally wrote off anybody looking for a return to more linear story progression as just “nostalgic” because the unhindered freedom of Breath and Tears is so clearly a direct upgrade from previous titles that had absolutely zero drawbacks at all whatsoever. Or that, perhaps, people actually come to these games for the overarching lore and story because this fanbase and the creators making content for it have a lot more in common with a franchise like Fallout than Mario, and upending shit for the hell of it because it’s too hard to write a story within the very loose confines of their pre-established setup, wasn’t a great idea💀

      Hard agree with both of you. I was actually holding out for playable Zelda sections in TOTK before we got a decent look at the game then inevitability but unsurprisingly disappointed when that didn't turn out. I believe this was their best chance to make her playable as they'd spent the two previous games (counting AOC) developing her character as one that could stand on her own and have the skillset to set out on her own adventure, especially with the scientist angle they went for. But instead she's whisked away to the past to help out Rauru and Sonia, which in essence is cool I just hate how *passive* it is from a player perspective. I love how much she actively contributed to saving the world in both titles its just that we never get to live her doing it and have to see it though cutscenes. Again I do think that Nintendo is somewhat trying to give this iteration of the character more agency and motivations but I would 100% prefer it is she was a present/interactable character in game NOW, and actively helping Link save the kingdom. Which is almost what she does but would work better if we saw it through gameplay though I'll admit I'm not so sure how it could've fit pacing wise. In the end I'm sort of glad we don't have a title focused solely on her just yet as given Nintendo's track record with the past two Peach games... I'd be kinda scared of how they'd handle my girl lmao

    Pitches for a few Zelda games:
    1. You actually play as 3 different Zeldas, one from each split timeline. The three communicate with each other using the Mcguffin of Nayru. The goal is to combine all three timelines together so that we have the start of BotW.
    2. We witness the "Hero is Defeated" timeline and how it ultimately brings us to A Link to the Past. So essentially the Imprisoning War.
    3. We play as Sheik within the 7 years Link was frozen in time in OoT.
    4. A Zelda game when she wasn't the damsel/kidnapped, aka during Link's Awakening or Majora's Mask.
    5. (Tears of the Kingdom Spoiler Warning) The game takes place in the past. She trained on how to use Recall, what else did she learn? She could have been stuck in the past for years for all we know before ultimately making her final decision. They could use the BotW map template again, but if they do, change it enough so it doesn't feel rehashed.

    I was hoping that’s what Tears of the Kingdom would have been based on early marketing of the game. But seemed like Nintendo Chickened out. I just hope there’s no “pink tax”. I was excited for Princess Peach getting her own game only to find out it was such a watered down experience meant to be baby girl’s first game as opposed to a high budget, fleshed out, polished adventure that can provide entertainment and commitment (in terms of providing satisfying difficulty progression) for those of all ages. I hope Zelda gets the Metroid treatment as opposed to Princess Peach Showtime

    Princess Zelda getting her own game would be really cool. I imagine a game like the old 3D Zelda games, but with spells instead of items and an increased emphasis on puzzle-solving (since Zelda's triforce is the triforce of wisdom).
    That said, I also want to see more Legend of Zelda games where Zelda adventures alongside Link like in Spirit Tracks.

  • @viperbreeze
    @viperbreeze 5 месяцев назад +2

    If they do a Zelda game where you play as Zelda, I think I would prefer her to be more like Twilight Princess Zelda or OOT Zelda.
    It’s not that I dislike Zelda from BOTW or TOTK, but it kind of feels like we’ve already explored most or all the interesting parts of her character, and we already got a lot of her in the Age of Calamity timeline as well. Skyward Sword Zelda was also interesting, but again I think we already know so much about her and her journey that it isn’t something that needs rehashing.
    TP Zelda seemed very complex and cryptic. She was clearly aware of the darkness spread throughout Hyrule’s history and even saw herself as a participant in that darkness. She exhibited tremendous leadership qualities and actually seemed like an adult. We see most other Zeldas exist as a circumstance of their situation. Things happen TO them. TP Zelda seemed like more of a force to be reckoned with even in spite of the fact that she surrendered to Zant’s army. She felt calculating. I would love a playable Zelda with that kind of personality but also with the skills of OOT’s Zelda being trained like a Sheikah.

  • @VilasNil
    @VilasNil 5 месяцев назад +2

    I'd say that with Zelda being the bearer of the Triforce of Wisdom, the game could be more puzzle-focused instead of action-focused. That would be cool, could go the direction of a tactics game with Zelda being the Princess of Hyrule (and in many instances, its ruler), or an adventure game more akin to the series but with a larger focus on the process of defeating enemies instead of mainly sword-focused combat with a single item sometimes being sprinkled in

    • @Logicalleaping

      Are you saying it would be the same style as most Zelda games? Or a tactics style akin to Fire Emblem?
      I've yet to see an idea for Zelda being playable that actually sounds fun. The whole point of Zelda is Link goes through all trials of the Triforce:
      Power - Enemy combat
      Wisdom - Dungeon Puzzles
      Courage - Actually doing the tasks (Links characteristic)
      As far as I can tell the only reason people want Zelda to be playable is to play as a girl. Nothing Zelda does Link can't do especially if its a different iteration Link can literally do whatever the developers want him to making Zelda unnecessary for gameplay.

    7:21 While this is often the case, there are times when I think leaking things is fine. Take for example LEGO sets. Often LEGO will do massive adult oriented sets that cost something in the range of $200-500 dollars. These big sets will also usually come with promotional gifts with purchase if you buy them within the first week or so of being out.
    Problem is, these sets usually aren't officially revealed until less than a month from release. For a lot of people that isn't nearly enough time to save up or work your budget around it to get those promotional sets. Even if there aren't any promotions, if you can only afford one or two sets of that size a year its good to know what all your options are to figure out which one's you're going to go for. However, leakers often report on the price and planned release of these sets up to half a year in advance, which gives plenty of time to get the money set aside for the ones you really want.
