Hmmm, this is pretty interesting. Just as I thought that they could not make this game any worse, they just did. Aonuma and his team have managed to turn the Legend of Zelda into an abomination of a game, it's almost a sick joke at this point.
The plot has turned into a high school drama. F***. How did this atrocity happen? The whole game is filled with puzzles, and even the combat is like a puzzle. F***. The items look like crap, with barely any combat use whatsoever ( except the bomb, that one and the bow are good ). They still put in the slingshot, which is essentially a weakened bow, so useless here. That evil magician looks horrible. They still suck up to Ocarina of time, which is getting annoying. And, UNLIKE majora's mask, you will HAVE to return to the shitty village and talk to the townspeople, and help them with their mundane tasks. F***.
At this point, I'm even surprised people are still calling this a Legend of Zelda game, when it quite clearly is NOTHING like what a Zelda game should be.

Best divest yourself of all involvement with the game now. Yes, go cancel your preorder (if you have one), erase the game from your mind, and let it trouble you no more. Then you won't have to worry about games that do or do not conform to what a Zelda game "should" be.

Never pre-ordered it, thank goodness for that. And as much as simply ignoring this game would be easy, why would I want to? I used to love the Zelda series. Had some of my best gaming moments with the older Zelda games, like the 1st two, or the handheld ones, but all the recent ones have been so meh. And you're just telling me that I should forget about it? Hell no. I want new Zelda games and great ones at that, but this just isn't happening.
Not sure if you're putting the quotation marks to be sarcastic, but what a Zelda game should be is an action-RPG, and not a series of puzzles linked by a crappy story. Or if you prefer, play the 1st game, and everything that's in it is what a Zelda game should be, and nearly everything else is unnecessary, and even detrimental to the games. Exception is if it stays true to being action-y or RPG-ish.
And it gets to me how some people lap this game up, even though it spits on the older Zelda games. But yeah, skipped out on spirit tracks, and it seems I'll be doing the same thing here. Unfortunately.
