I think a FF type future environment would be cool. Like FF7 was, very futuristic, but still maintained the fantasy feeling of the previous games. The game would not do with COMPLETELY futuristic. That is what Metriod is for. I am talking he uses a gun blade, airships, and there are flying cities... but the cities are not sci tech, they are hi- tech grecco roman, you know what I mean?

If Link gets a god damned gunblade, I am quitting Zelda forever, and destroying all the ones I already own.

I'm pissed enough as is with goddamn Spirit Tracks

Zelda with TRAINS? wtf...gay crap...ugh...couldn't stand WW crappy world..PH was quite good..but ST?

the whole idea is anti Zelda..so..lightsabers...and FF stuff in Zelda would ruin it for me

Putting trains in Zelda is the upper-limit of the sci-fi/FF-esque/steampunk elements I'll be okay with in a Zelda game, and even that took me some time to come to terms with. A futuristic Zelda, IMO, might as well be a new IP. How would it even work? Ganondorf the mogul of some shipping business threatening to monopolize trade? Link hopping on his motorcycle to speed across a technology-strewn countryside? Seriously, it's not just Link and co. and the gameplay that make Zelda games Zelda games; they just wouldn't work if the setting was radically changed....so I'm baffled why so many Zelda "fans" are clamoring for this. There are other ways to get your sci-fi fix, please don't drag Zelda into it.
