    every time someone at nintendo opens their mouth about these sorts of thing it makes me not want to buy any nintendo games

    I mean, not to be a total downer but if you really don't want to support institutionalized sexism you probably shouldn't buy any nintendo games :(

    Christ did Nintendo really make this? When am I going to wake up?

    I just can't believe that of all companies, Nintendo managed to drop the biggest surprise of E3 and it's somehow Zelda.

    it's totally a decision i think heavily about!

    thankfully the wii u's output has made it easy to not have to think about for some time

    Really probably shouldn't support much of the games industry at all. Or patronize most companies. Or...

    I think that naming one of the game's 100+ monks after Aonuma is kind of cute?

    I still wish that you could make Link a girl but like I said, I didn't expect it for this game! I expect it for the next one, though

    Why would that be surprising? Nintendo has made some of the best games of all time.

    MOnks, rather than deities, but I guess you could argue they'd be of a higher karmic level than most non-deities

    Fishing that piece of architecture out of that pond has me wondering if there's going to be implied lore based around the positioning of hidden stuff like that.

    I do not know if they can tear me away from the Zelda stream but it's a good effort

    Link has to be a boy, it's an inherent part of his character, like being left handed and wearing a green tunic.

    Yea, it is sort of shocking that they didn't just let you select male/female. Link is maybe the easiest character to do that with in all of video games because he's such a blank slate.

    perhaps what's frustrating for me is that non-obvious sexism still gets very little complaints or criticisms in our media, even if on this forum we happen to be keyed into it

    like the iconic sort of example to me of this was when Dragon's Crown was getting a bunch of attention and coverage and criticism, while at the same time GTAV was being looked at and praised and lauded. dragon's crown had obvious explicit depictions of women for people to get outraged over, while gtav's deplorable nihilistic harpies got a complete pass. because they were wearing clothes.

    so what makes me grumpy and withered is i know that while on this forum we'll talk about this, and we'll sigh, in reality there will be Literally Zero Pressure on nintendo for this, and they will have no impetus to improve or change

    I'm super excited about new Zelda

    however, I hate the Wii U and I certainly haven't been sold on the NX (like it's obviously a console and .... ????)

    yeah link is supposed to be a character that anybody can insert themselves into, which is why we have one gender

    the durability here seems good because you're constantly being provided with new items, so it just means you need to be regularly switching out

    once you get the master sword that will probably never break

    this looks way better than Skyward Sword or Twilight Princess

    I still have concerns though

    if they are doing survival type stuff tuning the difficulty is really important and I don't think nintendo is interested in that

    Read my blog about AMERICA and THE BAY AREA

  • OlivawOlivaw good name, isn't it? the foot of mt fujiRegistered User regular
    I think it's neat that all the shrine monks are named after what I assume to be different developers

    That's a cute way to put some importance on the people who made the game you're playing, without feeling particularly self-congratulatory. It takes a village, and all that

    ALSO: "Shrines and dungeons are not one and the same." "They're completely different."

    If you could see this game you would know that Nintendo absolutely loves the fuck out of Zelda. This game is a work of art.

    So it seems that Ganon is the villain and the presence of koroks make me think that Breath of the Wild is after Wind Waker. Are we going to get a return of WW Ganondorf?
