| Dodece said: Fable and Zelda are in entirely different genres. While it has taken a couple decades to come clean most gamers concede that Zelda is in no shape of form a RPG. Basically it was a bad classification, and giving it the honor of being some hybrid class was basically laughable. Zelda is an adventure title, and should be compared to other adventure titles. Otherwise you have to concede that Zelda as a RPG is about as piss poor as it gets. When you look at it from that perspective Fable is a million miles beyond Zelda. I hope nobody misunderstands me I would love to see Zelda get some real RPG elements. That would add considerable replay to the games. I doubt anything will kill Zelda anytime soon. Nintendo has played it safe with the series so much so you might say it is stagnant. I really did used to enjoy the series, but I am sick of the repetition at this point. Hell it doesn't look like its going to get any better until a game in the series bombs, and Nintendo is forced to innovate. That just isn't likely to happen, but as far as I am concerned just about anything kills Zelda at this point. |
Nintendo already said the next zelda is going to be different. The reason why zelda doesn't bomb despite being only somewhat different of previous titles is , because there are always new hardcore games in the form of kids. That will be their first zelda experience , and then they will tell there friends about how good it is without knowing that there has been a previous zelda game similar to it. That is why games that aren't innovative , but are in a good series still sell well. I imo just started to get annoyed with the repetativeness in some of the old nintendos ips. I just hope they change the next metroid,mario, and zelda to be something different, yet keeping the same quality. Zelda still doesn't get killed , because no matter how similar previous games are it is above quality on most games.
