| Wagram said: Got to say this this game was my biggest disappointment as well. I like Zelda and I usually pick up or at least play every installment that I can. But with this one, I don't see why I should. I imagine I will play it eventually, but after E3 I feel let down. |
Because of the artstyle? Motion controls seem very attractive for me!
Can't say I'm disappointed. All the best gameplay mechanics of Wii Sports Resort plus a couple more rolled into a legendary action/adventure. The in-game art could use a little tweaking, but I suspect it will get it over the next 9 months.
What were they expecting? Grit? Blood? Voice acting?

You all say you weren't disappointed but you are. Before E3 everyone was all "Zelda will be playable! NIntendo wins E3 confirmed!" and even though Nintendo did win E3, it had little to do with Zelda. The trailer wasn't exciting, the stage demo was a disaster. There was nothing mindblowingly epic about any of it. Compared to the Twilight Princess' unveiling it definitely felt underwhelming.
Not saying the game won't be good. It'll probably be one of the best games of the genreation. But it had a weak showing at this year's E3.

I totally expect a lot of Wii is doomed articles. PSP seems to have taken over :(
There reasons: 1. No real innovations to lead the series to a new level and 2. Graphics.
Legitimate complaints. Nonetheless, Skyward Sword will sell better than most of everything at E3 including id software's Rage.
With the amount of hype behind it, it was literally impossible for the game not to disappoint. C'mon, people started screaming; "this game will be the next messiah!!1" before seeing anything but an oil painting.
Before E3, I wasn't hyped about the next Zelda, unlike most people. And now, after E3, I'm very hyped about it, unlike most people.

People shit fifteen bricks when they saw how that game looked. Honestly, the Zelda games have always been more about the marvelous gameplay than the visuals.

Ironically, Malstrom found what he heard gave him a lot of hope for the game, when he felt before the game was just going to be a boring puzzle fest.
As for graphics, check point #2 in this article:

On some level we know this is wrong, because we know to hold films to a different standard. We know that advances in CGI couldn't save the Star Wars prequels, and that pretty 3D doesn't make Avatar the best movie of the year. Yet, in the next breath after mocking Avatar fans as slack-jawed yokels easily amused by a cheap technical gimmick, we will fly into a rage if some new game's technical gimmicks aren't up to par.
Nothing else matters. Who's that woman Alan is talking to up there? Where are they going? How does it play into the story? What emotions is this scene going to elicit? Tension? Dread? Humor? HOW CAN YOU WORRY ABOUT SUCH THINGS WHEN THE ROLL CAGE ON HIS PICKUP TRUCK ONLY HAS A 19:25 PIXEL RATIO. |
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

yeah yeah yeah, apart from that MH3 excuse i can't believe any of you are serious.
ITS THE ARTSTYLE
Please go and look at some paintings that inspired its look, and then tell me there isn't great artistry in why it looks the way it does. Plus, its not even fucking finished. They already said they were starting again, in order to "paint" this new look on the game, so im confident.
Finally, this is goddamned Nintendo were dealing with! Its not Team Ninja developed Metroid.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
"What the hell is wrong with you people?!" Lol
I'm buying it. I don't care what the demo was like. I'm buying it because it looked awesome. It just seems people love to bitch about what Nintendo gives us, no matter how badly we want it.
