Seriously. After hearing all the Nintendo fans rave about this trailer, I'm a little dumbfounded at what I just watched. It still looks good and I'm sure it'll deliver, but really?

So from what you saw in this trailer you are sure that this will deliver on being a good open world Zelda, but you dont get the hype? Is that not enough to be hyped already? I will add to that the mystical feeling the world oozes, how beautiful the artstyle looks, how completely free the game feels and how nice interactions with nature look, I mean this is the most different zelda I have seen since maybe Majoras Maks, and it looks, as you say, good, so I think you understand the hype better than you think even if you dont feel it.

I'm sure it'll deliver because it's a mainline Zelda game and Nintendo's only major home console presence in the near future. I get that's why fans are starving for it, I do not get how that trailer and footage is worthy of all that praise, though. I'm disappointed with the game's art; the rest of the game looks wholly inferior to the nearly cel shaded look of the bright grassy plains, to say nothing of image quality in general. Not sure what you mean about interactions with nature; is that from the livestream? Cuz I'm not seeing anything here beyond basic stuff found in other games for years now. That can be said of most of the gameplay in general, really; new for Zelda, but basic for the industry. One thing I will agree with is the SotC and Skyrim-esque sense of discovery; I hope there's plenty of it.

So yeah, good, but nowhere near 'wow' for me right now, and certainly not like a beautifully rendered diverse ecosystem of robot fucking dinosaurs.
