1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Been a minute since we’ve had a top-down Zelda game that you can play on the couch.

This looks like it might scratch my A Link to the Past itch.

Look at the map. It looks like the LttP top down map, or at least a similar throwback to it.

The town in the middle looked more like Minish Cap than anything else IMO

You can see the East Temple, the Rock Field, and Hyrule castle.

I'm pretty sure the trailer even shows that this is a direct sequel to Link to the Past.

Oh god, I hope they didn't reuse the map for a third game. This game looks so promising, but that would really put a damper on it.

Yeah, this looks a bit like LttP HD and ALBW. At least from the stills; I haven't watched the videos yet.

I hate the art style. Makes me curious if we see the dark world again though.

Post-Wii Nintendo seems to be allergic to 2d and pixel art stylez

[–] Ghostalmedia 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The art style is what excites me the most. This is like next-gen Link to the Past.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

That's quite the insult to the beautiful pixel art of Link to the Past.

Didn't they remake Link's Awakening?

[–] Ghostalmedia 1 points 5 months ago

Yeah, good point. I wonder if this is the same engine.
