The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (contains spoilers)

Here we have a dedicated thread for the newly titled Zelda game.

And so even Link gets in on the swimsuit action.

this looks like Princess Mononoke the videogame and I want it so bad.

Soon we will be deforesting the land for rupees. And burning the land for rupees.

Link is an environmental menace!!

I wonder what the difference is going to be between the Wii U and the NX version. I hope I get everything with just the Wii U version.

Ducks!

Looks like it takes place long after Twilight Princess, if the Master Sword is any indication. That or it's a distant sequel to Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Either it's quite sad to see the Master Sword in such a rusted state. I do wish though they had shown Princess Zelda. They did it with E3 2011 in Skyward Sword and it was awesome there.

It looks like it's trading graphical fidelity for a strong aesthetic and balls-ludicrous scope. I dig. What we've seen just looks rad all around.

The music in this trailer is kinda fantastic.

Link's name was part of the voice acting. No custom name?

I liked how you could drop a bolder on some Bulbins. The spear was cool too.

This game is gonna kick all our asses.

In a good way that is.

Get some pillows to sit on.

Reposting from the Nintendo Direct thread:

So, I found out about the first trailer for the new Zelda game.

For starters, it's now called The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Ok, good name.

Also, when I read IGN saying it will have voice acting, I was like "wait, what?!"

And lo and behold, when the trailer started, the first thing was a female voice saying "Open your eyes" in. Perfect. English. Right there, my face was literally 0_0.

And it stayed like that because it looked so f*cking beautiful...it sounded so f*ucking beautiful. Like ''music from a Miyazaki movie-beautiful"...I was awestruck from start to finish.

Holy crap, you guys. This is gonna be on Wii U. This inevitable masterpiece will be on Wii U.

And I can't wait...and neither will my sister.

(Also, female voice speculation. I say it's either a female parental figure to Link, a lady friend of Link's, or Zelda herself. Actually, I'm not sure which sound more probable. I'd have to hear it again, I'm still reeling from how gorgeous that trailer was...)

Well, I'm super excited now.

I'll need the trailer in higher quality than the stream before i go gaga over it.

Honestly, I feel like "Breath of the Wild" is a dumb name... But Holy God! Everything else about this trailer is PERFECT! I've never been that big a fan of the Legend Of Zelda series, and the only game I've ever really played was Twilight Princess (though not for long, as I screwed up the disc somehow shortly after the first Wolf area), but this looks so insanely good!

Might be what I pick up with the NX.

the japanese logo looks like SOTC lol◊

Well I'm hype as fuck. Everything looked gorgeous. It looks like we can add lumberjack, chef, hunter, and pyromaniac to Link's resume. I wonder if the new armor and weapons will be rewards for completing the rumored mini-dungeons or created through a crafting system or dropped by enemies or what. If there is voice acting and that wasn't just something they did for the trailer, that could be pretty interesting. Overall, looking forward to what's in store.

THEY'RE BACK GUYS

Aonuma lookin old

Back to starting with 3 hearts.

So clothes give stats. But you can play as Naked Link.

We Zelda souls now

~Fanservice ~

Segmented armor !

Glowing Magi-tech !

We start off this game with a Shirtless, Pantsless Link, which already elevates this game into a S+ 10/10.

Clothes have armor points now. Zelda's definitely adding RPG customization to its open world.

Quick opening this time. I like it.

Koroks!

So we have nearly naked link in this and yet Nintendo is censoring things like this◊.

Wtf Nintendo... Double Standard much. Please tell me some one is calling them out on this.
