- The starting plot unfolds quite a bit differently from other Zeldas. "This game's plot is something like a school drama, you could say," Aonuma noted with a laugh. "The flying sequence at the E3 demo is Link competing against his classmates. One of them looks kind of a like a bad guy, as you saw, and he shows up in other ways in the game too, since he has a major thing for Zelda."

Link, Zelda and their other friends all go to the same boarding school, and you've got teachers and a principal as well. It's a bit of a different setting from previous Zeldas."

Whatever hope I had for this game has just been destroyed reading this.

It's a joke. When he says it like that, it's a joke. Remember Aonuma's "Odoro no Linku?" (Dancing Link?)

Doubtlessly the school drama aspect will be little more than the school-drama elements that were present in OoT (you could sketch out Link as the outcast who yet gets his childhood "love" interest in Saria with the rival/bully  Mido.
