Honestly part of me doesn't even want to entertain the concept of this thread. But ... I have to admit, it's kind of true.
It's not that people have suddenly forgotten about Zelda. It's that, for more than a year, the most hyped and beloved thing was Zelda ... and now something actually came along that can steal the spotlight. Now, Zelda being the critical darling it is seems less astounding. In a weird sort of way, Mario Odyssey getting scores similar to Zelda didn't make this same event occur. I think it's because it was made by Nintendo so it's critical acclaim was just kind of taken for granted. Now though i's clear as day that this gap between Nintendo and other first parties is a tad smaller than some might have imagined, and that's going to cause people like what Acevil described to come out of the wood works.
| Acevil said: Certain people of the God Of War hype club, won't name names, have talked shit about Zelda for about a year now, and now they have game to actually be super crazy about. Some Zelda fans might retaliate and also do reverse and target God of War, but I noticed Zelda being attacked more than God Of War. |
I hate to say it, but this is definitely true...
