Good to know that nobody agrees with me about the whole Kingdoms of Amalur art style thing. Here I thought it delivered the best of both worlds (real and surreal) more so than the typical fantasy game.

Not a huge fan of that look.  I would like something a little more subdued.... my dream would be this look:

TheLastGuardian.pic


Which looks fine for a somber-seeming game like The Last Guardian.

But I don't think it would do the personality of the Zelda series any more justice.

I think it would be perfect to portray a sense of wonder in a back-to-basics explore a larger than life magical world Zelda game.

It's hard for me to think of an art style that couldn't do that.

Aonuma makes what HE WANTS and not what the FANS WANT.


Ehhh... he seems pretty open to fan criticism in all the press he does. 

I wouldn't have believed this BS 20 years ago and I sure as Hell wouldn't believe it now. Aonuma is to Zelda fans what Sakamoto is to Metroid fans: Full of shit excuses, yet able to capture a few apologists who believe his "genius" isn't appreciated so they champion everyone of his efforts like it's gospel. His games are lame and by association the modern Zelda fan is as well. [/thread]

It sounds to me like you are stating the bullshit you want to hear, and completely ignoring reality.


Please explain to me what reality I'm ignoring. He (Aonuma) has gone on record saying that he hated both the SpaceWorld and E3 2011 demos. The modern Zelda fan has accepted his "genius" and that is why Zelda will continue to wallow in mediocrity. Miyamoto needs to wake the fuck up and upend every tea table he can find to right this ship because as of now it is on a course of disastrous proportions.

The same can be said for the Wii U.


Because he didn't do ugly graphics that were that tech he is losing touch. Your opinion is.joke based on nothing but shallow thinking. Link between worlds has amazing reviews.

I think it will have a cinematic lens flare look. This will help make the game more challenging as players struggle to see what the hell they're doing.

Probably won't, everyone knows to never trust tech demos.

Exactly, people expecting that type of presentation or general design must have delusions of what the Zelda franchise is about.
