Ultima says hello. -___-

As for what Aonuma is saying, I take it he means it will be open world, but not sandbox.


Well the first mainstream one. No one knows Ultima.

Nice excuse. But you're wrong. You may have no idea what Ultima is. That's your ignorance, not the world's. And even if nobody here knew what Ultima is, that doesn't make what you say any more true. Don't you like looking at things without blinders? Are is Nintendo God to you and everything must come from them first?

Make an issue out of something that isn't an issue, why don't you?
Sheesh. Nice to see you haven't changed.

I present a new case..

An open world is a level or game designed as a nonlinear, vast open area with many ways to reach an objective.

LoZ was the first true open world 'game' because it was nonlinear.

Tell that to yourself. You're contributing to what you judge to be a non issue. Basically, you're just jumping in to call me out without providing anything about the discussion. Nice to see you haven't changed either.

Please, dont make zelda open world. Why does everything needs to be open world?

Because anything linear is basically a movie, by some fucked up logic.

Open World =/= Sandbox, example World of Warcraft and other open world theme "park" MMORPGs, I think Aonuma means this game wont be a sandbox.

So it's not going to be open-world then


Pseudo-open world, as in the Souls games?

Or Pseudo-open world like normal Zelda games.  -__-

.. which isn't really related to my post,as I commented on "no one knows Ultima" - shouldn't be too hard to understand if you read my post

Legen Of Zelda was the first open world game with non linear gameplay.

Pretty much this!

I know what Ultima is. Ask any random on the street what Ultima is, though. Now ask them what Zelda is. I'd put money on you not finding anyone who knows what Ultima is, but never heard of Zelda. Mainstream. Zelda is mainstream. Pac Man, Mario, Pokemon, Final Fantasy, World of Warcraft, Call of Duty. Those are mainstream. Ultima never was any of that. It's no excuse. It's no Nintendo thing. It's fact. Zelda made open world games a 'thing' in a way Ultima never did and never could have. That's no slant on it's quality. It's a slant on it's prominence and therefore it's influence. It's like when people say Nintendo created the dpad or the analog stick. They didn't. Who cares though? They made it the standard.
