I agree I think they needed more time for Zelda U - and I want them to get it right - but like so many Zeldas, it sounds like it's going throug a re-work mid-project. They're not even showing it at e3 when it was supposed to be a year from production last year. So they either botched the initial concept or the re-work isn't needed, either way it seems like a bit of a failing. As Pavo said earlier, if they didn't bother reworking SS's controls and now whatever they're doing with U, both titles could be out by now and another on the way. And lots of developers make great games in less time. Arkham Knight has been delayed from 3 years into 4, and it will be every bit as abitious as Zelda if the previous entries are any indication. The previous titles were on 3 year schedules. SS was a fine game, but on Wii it was easily surpassed by Mario Galaxy and Xenoblade. On other systems games like Batman: AA, Mass Effect, Skyrim, GTA 5, Fable 2, Uncharted, Last of Us and many others push SS to a lesser teir. Zelda needs to up its game again. |
Well I dont think Zelda U could be out by now in any case (unless you want half of game). Basically almost every 3D Zelda game except MM was delayed, so Zelda U is not difrent, add to that first HD Zelda, most biggest world and most open world.
Lots a developers make great games, but what developers makes great games for 30 years. And you can't compare other developers with Nintendo, especially Zelda game, every Zelda game, especially last few, are without any bugs or performance issues, maximum polished games on launch and they delivered experience that you can find in any other game.
Thats very subjective. Zelda games were always in their own tier, its no coincidence that one Zelda game usually is compared only with other Zelda games and not with another franchises, they are league are own.
