My first were Oracle of Ages and Seasons, and my most recent was Skyward Sword. I've never really disliked any of them. The Zelda series at its worst is many other series at their best; it's just a fun formula that works, and if you ask me it's pretty hard to get it wrong. People take for granted the things that make the series great, but those things have never changed: The puzzles are inventive and fun to solve, the setting is gorgeous, the mythos is deep and intriguing, the characters and enemies are vibrant and full of life... It has the feel of a hero's journey, while subtly tweaking the formula to become its own thing. Instead of overcoming physical trials, the hero's wit is tested as often as his fitness. Instead of slaying a dragon at journey's end, one battles a wicked sorcerer... Ok, maybe that's trading trope for trope, but not many evil wizards turn into giant pig-beasts, you gotta give him that one. All in all, I'm just never not having fun with a Zelda game. When the puzzles and combat grow tedious, the catchy soundtrack and vivid set pieces keep me entertained; when the characters are simple and the setting uninspired (admittedly rare), the fighting is tense, the collectibles abound, and the puzzles keep my mind sharp. There's never a dull moment in Hyrule. The number of people whining about linearity in video games is TOO DAMN HIGH Linearity is structure. Linearity is focus. Linearity is efficiently designed levels with many layers of challenge that can be tackled in a variety of ways, in an environment that wastes no space and serves its purpose. An open world is a clumsy world, an empty world, a boring world. Unless the open world has a distinct purpose, and unless the developer has the know-how and the resources to really and truly fill that world with interesting things to do, it becomes wholly inferior to the game with a tight, expertly-crafted lay-out. The only thing Zelda would profit from is providing a wider array of solutions to a single problem. Doing away with the format altogether would just make it Skyrim with puzzles, and that sentiment can jack right off to oblivion (no pun intended). As for action-packed and hard... There are other games. Let Zelda be Zelda, for chrissakes. It's not supposed to be an action game, it's supposed to be an adventure game. And the challenges that are there aren't supposed to be punishingly difficult; just stimulating. If you don't like it, admit you don't like it, but don't try to change it because you don't like it. A lot of other people do.
PREORDERED. Though I am getting a little worried that the game's been infected with feature creep I mean I was excited from the first announcement don't pile it on too thick Tiy
Wellll... Not exactly. Pink, or rather what most people refer to as magenta, doesn't exist as a ray of light. There are light rays for every color of the rainbow... but hook these up to a color wheel, and there's a piece missing. There's no transitory color between red and purple - not in the visible spectrum, anyway. So when our eyes observe something that would have that color, it appears to us as magenta. The color is a mix of red and blue light, but you can also derive it from white light by removing the green, so it could be called minus-green. Which is probably how this optical illusion works. You could say it doesn't exist at all, but the color does appear in nature - it's just that it is largely interpreted by our minds. It's still a product of light rays, it just doesn't have its own. Which is why magenta is one of my favorite colors. :3 You keep saying it like it's derogatory, but I find some fucking funny things on that site If it's funny I save it, and if I've saved it I use it Same with 4chong except I never go on there anymore
