I would say TLOU has more in common with Uncharted than Zelda SS has with WW or aLTTP. The point I am trying to make is that having a different story/setting/characters does always mean this new IP is newer. This is mainly in response to some who criticize Nintendo for not making enough new IP, not you personally. |
All Zelda games have essentially similar core mechanics, the art style just changes with subtle gameplay tweaks to suit the artistic feel of the game. Theres nothing wrong with this but Nintendo needs new IP's for a newer generation. A new IP is a fresh concept whose intellectual rights are being legally protected. Play Uncharted and then Play TLOU. Its light night and day, especially with it having elements of another Sony IP in ICO where you're forced to care for a secondary character throughout the game. Zelda may change art styles, but at its core its still Zelda. The truest intent never changes, hence why people put faith in that title. A new IP is a great risk because it builds itself off of a dream realizing itself, not a foundation.
