I dunno. Maybe it would help if they didn't make a game that completely copied Zelda.



riiight.  nintendo fans are a unique breed of arrogance.

I would not say that this comes entirely unprovoked, though lilbroex should be less bellicose about this. On the other hand, all i recall from the release of the original game was gamers and media harping on and on about how "this is what Zelda would be if Nintendo would just get with the program and mature up the franchise"

i played darksiders.  it was okay, not great.  the comparison to zelda is obvious for two reasons: they are in the same genre, the genre has largely been forgotten this gen.

saying this is a zelda copy is like saying saints row is a GTA copy (which btw also got a lot of comparison in the press/forums).  even if you exclude the "mature theme" differentiation darksiders was quite different in it's focus on combat which had for more depth and variety then zelda has had since it's transition to 3D.
