    Aonuma: OoT was restricting, the BotW format will continue

    Thanks for posting the update. Hate it but I appreciate the heads-up. Kind of feels like if Tolkien started writing manga. Maybe it's great manga and he's got the skill and right to do it, but I fell in love with his longform novels of western low fantasy. Changing the format so drastically may...

    Aonuma: OoT was restricting, the BotW format will continue

Miyamoto (and Aonuma under his supervision) can do whatever they...

    When this first showed up in my news feed, I thought it had to be a mistranslation or at least lacking in context from the original Japanese. I'll be sorely disappointed if Nintendo abandons linearity as part of the Zelda format. Honestly, the "new formula" reminds me a lot of FSA where each...
