What are your thoughts towards Skyward Sword, 7 years later?

Didn't see any other [BotW] cosplay at Denver Comic con, so figured I'd post here. Had a blast!

My first Zelda game and I love it, this is coming from a guy who's turning 18 this year who isn't exactly a casual gamer but doesn't have an entire shelf filled with video games.

I'm not sure why but the game is just so incredibly charming to me and playing it made me feel like a kid again. The NPCs with like, 3 lines of dialogue, are all incredibly memorable. I don't think I'd forget about the creepy kokiri cheerfully wondering whether I'd become a stalfos or king zora taking his time to make way for me to save his daughter. And they don't all have to be all weird or creepy to be memorable either, even relatively normal characters like Malon, I think are awesome. Something about her just makes her really adorable.

The story, even though it's incredibly simple, had a lot of great moments and for some reason, resonated with me a lot. The puzzles and general gameplay is great, but I don't think the game would be nearly as awesome without the story.

That said I don't think it's the 10/10 perfect game everyone says it is. Fighting some enemies can be boring, side quests range from pretty cool to ugh(Masks and Gold Skulltulas) and it can be a way too cryptic at times. I like how creatively the game forces me to think, but trying to find out how to get king zora to move and getting into jabbu jabbu was more than a little frustrating.

But despite all that, even someone like me can see why this game is hailed as a classic. If all the games are of this quality, no doubt I'm going to get as many of them as I possibly can. Breath of the Wild(and Smash Bros) is the reason I'm saving up to get a switch.

Is the breath of the wild expansion worth playing?

Posted: 18 Jun 2018 08:57 AM PDT

I finished the original game a few months ago and I was wondering if the expansion was worth the extra $20.

My first ink

BOTW Friendly tip: You can get 75 arrows at the Mounted Archery Camp (West of the Highland stable) by talking to Jini.

Does anyone else feel that BotW's story was "retconned" a little bit in Champion's Ballad?

Posted: 17 Jun 2018 08:36 PM PDT

In the story of the past that we uncover mostly via memories, it's pretty clear that there is some initial doubt about Link's abilities. Zelda isn't taking the ceremony seriously and appears bored/aloof, Revali clearly sees him as incompetent and mocks him (commenting during the ceremony that he's on the same page as the princess regarding "this boy").

Zelda begins talking enthusiastically in the memory "Resolve & Grief" about the progress they're making with preparations for Ganon's return before stopping in her tracks and asking, hesitantly, whether Link is showing any proficiency with the sword - as if he is the one part of the puzzle which has not yet come together (apart from her own powers, but that's another part of the story).

Although it's never explicitly spelled out for us, it seems to be implied that Link was presumably picked as a champion and as Zelda's appointed knight because he managed to pull the Master Sword, but no one is really sure why the sword picked him or whether he has actually demonstrated competence at that point. I suppose the king, knowing the history of the sword, saw the potential in him and trusted the sword's judgement, knowing it would only pick someone with he spirit of a true hero - hence why he appointed Link as Zelda's knight. There does also seem to be an element of frustration and jealousy on Zelda's part, where she has spent her entire life praying and attempting to unlock the power of her bloodline to no avail, while this boy who barely says a word and has yet to show real competence manages to pull the legendary sword for reasons which are (at the time) unclear.

In the memories we see a pretty clear arc where Zelda goes from doubting Link's abilities, to dismissing him entirely and telling him that he's not needed (partly out of frustration that she can't unlock her own powers, but also because she doesn't seem to believe in him), to the moment he follows her anyway and saves her life from the Yiga Clan - this is the turning point in the story where she sees that maybe there's something to this guy after all. From that point on she visibly warms up to Link much more, acknowledging him as brave in the following memory and even going on to say "I see now why you would be the chosen one" in the memory by the Lake.

So when the DLC comes out and now there's this whole backstory about Link taking down adult knights in duels at the age of four, or saving people by deflecting guardian blasts with pot lids, it seems to contradict that whole arc from the initial memories. Zelda even says in the Daruk cutscene that the top contender to be her appointed knight is "the most accomplished swordsman in all of Hyrule", and this is chronologically supposed to be before the events of any of the other memories.

This kind of bothers me because it seems to contradict the story that was laid down initially before the DLC released. It seems to me (just a hunch) that there may have been a bit of a miscommunication between the team who wrote the game's story initially and those who wrote the additional DLC story.

It's not a big deal by any means and I'm certainly not losing sleep over it, but I was just wondering whether anyone else had noticed this - it seems to me to be somewhat contradictory.

Skyward Sword HD for Switch, Still probable?

Posted: 18 Jun 2018 04:16 AM PDT

Now that E3 is over and there was no Zelda news do you still think we could be getting a remake? I know the base has been split on even if they want a remake but I would love one. Im kinda bummed we didn't get any Zelda news at all let alone any mention of a remake or port. So what are your thoughts?

Apparently my mom knows a little more about games than I give her credit for.

Posted: 18 Jun 2018 07:52 AM PDT

So on vacation in NYC and my family and I decided to stop in the Nintendo store there. My mom took one look at the Master Sword they had on display there and asked "Isnt that the Sword of Zelda?

My brother and I were actually pretty impressed considered how little my mom knows about video games.
