a thread that i have been keeping up with was discussing something like a final fantasy Zelda game that is an RPG and i wanted to make a thread for the type of gameplay it could have and all of that so i hope you guys enjoy this thread.
first of all it would not include Link but it would have Zelda in it. i think it would be cool if it took place between OoT and WW as it is a time Link was not present and it would give a chance for warriors from different races to step up and try to stop an ultimate evil (ganondorf). the races and powers would go as follows.
Hylian-Zelda-she would be like the magic user. shes almost too weak to attack but she would still be able to if she didnt have any magic left, but she would be the main magic user and one of the main characters of the game (obviously).
another idea i came up with is that it would be cool for there to be a kokiri as the main character. it would be a kokiri who had always looked up to Link when they were growing up and was proud of him defeating Ganondorf. the kokiri will be the swordsman in the game and the main character. when he leaves the kokiri village he will age over time (as time in the game will be a course of years) and he will grow up and become a powerful swordsman as you play with him. the Deku Tree gives him the chance to leave the village after much debate with the kokiri.
somehow the kokiri will meet up with Zelda after Ganondorf escapes and they decided to work together to try and stop him since Link is not around. on their journey they will come across some people who join their team and help them out.
the Deku will be the long ranged attacker (kind of like an archer but without a bow and arrows). the deku have been known to shoot things out of their mouths (such as bubbles and what appears to be deku nuts). i think it would be cool to have this instead of an archer. the types of things the Deku can shoot will vary. bubbles will be a type of attack that puts the enemy to sleep. the deku nuts will be the basic attack and as the journey goes on the Deku will be able to shoot other things such as exploding deku nuts or fireballs or something.
the Goron will be the muscle. in every RPG game there is always one character who is just a beast. the Goron will be able to weild very heavy weapons and he will just be a straight up muscle fighter. he will also be able to roll up into a ball and make spikes come out of his body as a special attack or something (like in MM when you roll around spikes pop out).
the Zora will be somewhat like a second swordsman except instead of using a sword, he will use his fins (like link does in MM). as with there always being a tough guy, in every RPG there is always a really fast guy. he wont necessarily be the strongest but he will be fast.
i also just came up with something else i hope you guys like. miyamoto said WW comes 100 years after OoT but later that statement was changed or disproved. i know there is a quote in game that states that the events in the BS of WW took place "hundreds" of years ago. now what im thinking is that this RPG would take place 120 years after Ganondorf is defeated in OoT.
now the final warrior you get for your team will be a male Gerudo (thats why i want it to take place 120 years after OoT, so a new male could be born and grown up).
he will be a 20 year old male who has abandoned the Gerudo tribe for reasons you find out during the adventure. he will be the thief of the group, as well. he can pick locks and treasure chests and can steal items from enemies. he will also have a small amount of dark magic that gets stronger over the course of the game.
now how will this game end? you will technically lose in the end but also kind of win.
we all know that Ganondorf is around in WW which means that if this takes place between OoT and WW, Ganondorf cant die.
to understand my ending you have to keep this question in mind. what happens to Ganondorf after he terrorizes Hyrule when he escapes the sacred realm? why did it take him hundreds of years to make his attack on the great sea?
my ending will answer this question. there will be a final fight against Ganondorf. when you "defeat" him, he will be so utterly weak that the only way to save himself is to release a crap load of energy from the ToP. this energy will catch the attention of the Goddesses who realize that he has too much power and cant be stopped by normal means of fighting. they will then save a good number of people and flood Hyrule with Ganondorf still there. the cool thing will be that the main characters (the Gerudo male, Zelda, the kokiri, the zora, and the Goron) will be saved. all except for the Deku who will die during the final battle as a kind of sad ending. also, because the Deku cant survive around lots of water, the Goddesses do not save them (sad i know).
my plan is this, the kokiri who is the main character is the same one who becomes the sage for the earth temple. the Zora who is saved is the first one to become a Rito (and then is accompanied by other Zora who become Rito to make a community of them). the Goron who is saved (along with others) will start to rebuild their lives on an island in a cave and Zelda, in order to hide who she really is, will become a pirate with the Gerudo male. the Gerudo male and Zelda will be the founders of the pirate crew that was said to have inhabited the forsaken fortress before Ganondorf took it over. somewhere along the way, the crew would have just disassembled which would explain why Tetra is not apart of the crew.
