An entire section of the trailer is devoted to the residents of Termina, such as Gabora the blacksmith, Indigo-Go‘s drummer Tijo, and the mysterious hand in the toilet. The animations are super smooth — as expected — but I did notice that NPC voices have not been updated. This isn’t a bad thing, as I like having those sounds preserved for nostalgia’s sake.
The biggest reveals in the trailer were gameplay clips of the two bosses we haven’t seen a lot of yet: Goht and Twinmold. The boss of Snowhead, like Odolwa and Gyorg, has been given a giant eye that pops out when stunned. This appears to confirm fans’ fear that large, obvious weakpoints are now present in all of the game’s bosses.
In addition to a big eye on Twinmold, there are also changes to how the boss is dealt with. The Giant’s Mask now renders Link a hand-to-hand fighter that punches Twinmold throughout the battle. Another trailer has also shown that giant Link and swing Twinmold around by the tail. These changes seem to be a way to make the Twinmold fight a more distinctive experience than it used to be, with more special uses of the Giant’s Mask. I didn’t much care for the orginal boss fight, so I’m all for it.
