    Breath of the Wild More Aggressive Enemies

    It would be nice to see more aggressive enemies in the Zelda series, Skyward Sword was a step in the wrong direction in this regard, but I'm really hoping to see more enemies along the lines of Ocarina of Time's Stalfos and Twilight Princess's Darknuts. I feel the main issue Nintendo would...

    General Zelda The First Zelda Game You Played

    My first Legend of Zelda Game was Phantom Hourglass. I purchased it because I had heard of the series for a long time and needed to add more variety to my DS's game library. It was one of my first open-world adventure games, a genre which I had long craved. I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed...

    Skyward Sword The Swordplay.

    I really enjoyed the idea of Skyward Sword's swordplay, but it's execution made it feel more like a gimmick than an engaging new feature. I felt that, when engaging an enemy, the entire flow of the game seemed to slow down for a while, the combat was just too slow paced, and treated enemies more...

    What's Your Favorite Anime?

    Fate/Zero is my favorite anime, and probably one of the best anime in general. The story is rich in character development and tragic twists. The animation is some of the highest-quality in history, and the music is superb. My previous favorite anime was Puella Magi Madoka Magica, a deceptively...

    Your Thoughts Pokémon Black 2 & White 2

    I finished the game (White 2) a few days ago, overall, I would say the experience is not quite as deep as the original Black and White, but those were spectacular as far as I am concerned. As far as designs go, I personally like them, having just started into the series in generation III, I...

    Is Every Zelda Game Truly A Gem?

    I don't really class any title after Twilight Princess a "AAA Gem", and even at that point, such a title was pushing it. I have found that there is little that the Legend of Zelda series has accomplished as of late that is not done better by other games on other systems, getting to the point...

    Ocarina of Time Am I the Only One Who Liked Navi?

    I don't really like Navi, but never really disliked her either. My only complaint about her being that if I wanted to enter first person view to look around, I would have to listen to her telling me to do something I have already done many times. For example (probably paraphrasing a bit...

    General Modern TP Art Style + Character Development Direction/Depth = The Next Big Zelda

    I know this may make me seem like one of those people who believe that graphics are everything, but I personally believe that Twilight Princess' art style was superior to that of the rest of the series. It contributed to an important factor of video games that I have not really seen in the Zelda...

    BGMs

    I'm not a big fan of the Skyward Sword soundtrack, but there were a few pieces of music within the game that stood out to me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHPdD9s1-Mg The above fanfare did not give quite the same effect as the Twilight Princess equivalent in my opinion, but was still great...

    How Nintendo Can Improve Metroid

    They keep the gameplay similar to that of Other M, though choosing a reasonable control scheme instead of using the standalone wii remote. my only issue with other M as a whole was the flow-killing use of first person (having to stop and aim in an otherwise fast paced game), the first...

    When You Die, What Game Would You Choose to Live In?

    Hyrule Castle Town from Twilight Princess, the security provided by it's walls, the stunning Hyrule Castle dominating the northern Skyline, the scenic venues that surround the town such as the Lake Hylia (that bridge is fantastic) all make this town a great place to live.

    Zelda on PC?

    I don't want Zelda games on PC, despite what my previous post may imply. I do however, want to point out that their are a plethora of game controllers available for the PC. Also, the price of gaming PC's is very often exaggerated, I want to know what kind of money people think is being dropped...

    Skyward Sword Wasn't the First to Have Interesting Shop Keepers You Know

    Even if they were more interesting than the shopkeepers of earlier games, Skyward Swords Shopkeepers were more annoying if anything. Simply browsing their shops required going through enormous amounts of unneeded dialogue, I found buying potions to be particularly obnoxious. I will also say that...

    Zelda on PC?

    As great as a PC Zelda would be, given the average gaming PC's superiority over modern consoles and far superior storage space, allowing for larger worlds, longer stories, and overall more content. I do not think it is something that we will ever see happen. Sure Zelda games have appeared on a...

    What New Elements Would You Add to Zelda?

    I cannot agree with this more, this was the driving force behind my optional dungeons idea. I played Twilight Princess long after I had defeated the final boss, because there was still content left and sometimes exploring for the sake of exploring can still be fun. On the topic of post-game...

    What New Elements Would You Add to Zelda?

    I would like to see the game world get very big, bigger than Twilight Princess, as well as returning to the open world type gameplay that felt almost completely abandoned in Skyward Sword. However, I would like to see some variety in geography in a Hyrule Field-esque area, such as more rivers...

    Poll: What Weapon Would You Like in a New Zelda Game

    The Double ended sword was the only one I could conceivably pick. The others just don't fit into the series in any way shape or form. I would probably remove the Whip from the game, as it always seems to be trying to be useful, but never seems to truly manage it.

    Poll: Should There Be a Game Where the Current Link Gets Killed and a New One Comes?

    I agree with this, but due to the diverse nature of Zelda fans, things like that happen. (Fans complain about the Cel Shaded Toon art style of The Wind Waker, then proceed to complain about the darker and more realistic art style of Twilight Princess... They are not making this easy for Nintendo...

    Poll: Who Would You Think Would Win a Fight?

    Gorman seems more intimidating, and could probably defeat the Curiosity shop man, Link, with his standard equipment, could easily defeat the Deku King and Guards, the Bomb Shop man seems like he could beat Sakon in my opinion, Sakon just seems a little frail, Bomb Shop man looks a lot more...

    Poll: Should There Be a Game Where the Current Link Gets Killed and a New One Comes?

    It wouldn't really feel right for Link to die before the ending of a game, as player character deaths never seem to truly work from my point of view, constant game overs followed by reattempts prevent the player from taking the player's death that seriously, and could cause similar situations...

    Favorite Item?

    A hard choice between the bow and the Clawshots , but had to go with the bow, since the Clawshots just don't have the range of targets that the Hookshot had. I still remember how much fun I had in Twilight Princess especially, taking out enemies from afar with a combination of the bow and the...

    Enemy Variety Vs. Enemy Depth

    I prefer variety of enemies over depth of enemies, though both combined is superior by far. Also note that Skyward sword really didn't have that much enemy variety, having about 30 unique enemy species. Skyward Sword's enemies really weren't really as deep as they are given credit for , deeper...

    Shortest Zelda?

    Skyward Sword isn't the shortest, I would give that title to Majora's Mask (which was still one of the best regardless of length). I will say that Skyward Sword is in no way the longest, I breezed through the game in 32 hours (100%), with the total climbing to 58 hours for hero mode's 100%...

    Idea's on How to Improve Zelda Dungeons

    General Modern How to Improve Stamina the Meter? What Would You Change?

    First and foremost, I would change the overall design of the stamina meter visually. perhaps a bar that appears around the bottom of the screen or something akin to the grip meter from the game Shadow of the Colossus that could be placed under player health, I'm not really sure. Personally, I...

    Does Zelda Really Need Music?

    Shadow of the Colossus is one of my favorite games of all time. However, the silence presented when exploring that world existed to heighten the atmosphere of loneliness that the developers were trying to create, and to make the loud orchestral masterpieces that played during the Boss battles...

    How Would You Rate Skyward Sword?

    I gave it the admittedly harsh rating of 3/10, though looking back, it probably deserves a 5 or 6/10 in by books (granted, I grade all games a tad harsh, with Ocarina of time probably being a 7.5/10 in by books. Whenever I think of a specific Legend of Zelda game, I always tend to associate...

    Why All the Hate for Skyward Sword's Bokoblins?

    I'm not really a fan of the '-blin' family of enemies in general, so their overuse in Skyward Sword did nothing but lower my opinion on the title, the silly redesign of the Bokoblins made matters even worse. Leaving the imp-like design standardized by the Gamecube era for the comical Bulldog...

    Is Skyward Sword a Good Game or a Bad Game?

    In my opinion, Skyward sword was the worst 3D Legend of Zelda Game in the franchise. It's high points were some of the highest in the series, but those high points were few and far between. One of the main problems I had with the game was how "idiot-proof" it felt. Nearly everything, no...

    Which Will You Get? Pokemon Black or White?

    I'm getting Pokémon White.

I also prefer the other version exclusives and would rather catch Pokémon in white forest...

    Graphics

    Graphics do matter in a sense, for example, the games of today are much better (discounting nostalgia) then the 8 bit games from the days of the NES. In this Generation. Many people have been putting down the wii for having such 'terrible' graphics. But I'm under the impression that many of...

    Wii Motion Plus

    I don't mind the Wii Motion Plus at all. I have read lots of complaints about the difficulty level, and the whole outstretched sword thing. I think the concerns about the difficulty arose from combination of the art style (which some feel is too "childish"), and the low difficulty on the...
