Forums - Nintendo - Zelda WiiU: Aonuma hopes to provide a "kind of twist" to open world games with new Zelda

On one hand, I think it would be interesting to have a Zelda game with a Skyrim framework, but then again, I think Zelda is a type of game that has to end somewhere.

I had a theory of a cool game mechanic that the Villain of this game hire some sort of bounty hunter or so that hunts Link down, and you can actually encounter him at anytime during your playthrough. Its an increidbly smart AI that just doesnt appear in story events but is a part of the game itself. and that mercenary is always hunting you by tracing and stuff. Would be really cool to be suprised attacked


God! I want this now! It could be incredible, although this is like Ghirahim but with more advanced AI. I believe Ghirahim battles were fun and the best boss battle since Majora's Mask bosses.

 

Edit: dat IGN comments

It's not coming to Wii-U. Surprise!

 

BTW, I hope his "twist" is more than ALTTP Link merges in a wall Edition.

 

If you think that´s the only thing ALBW twisted, then you are a bit blind.

OT: I hope they don´t get any fan feedback, Zelda fans would have killed the franchise yers ago, they dont know what they want, even Wind Waker would have never exists if was for them.

Finally something about Zelda U! :)

I would love ALTTP twist in true open and big Zelda world, we have normal world like they showed us in December, but also dark version of that world, all again some time traveling mechanics that would make that same world completely changed, similar to OOT.


I'd love it if they didn't recycle the two worlds gimmick for literally the sixth time.

Absolutely. I cant believe anybody would even want to see that gimmick again. Time/Dark worlds... No.

What else? Rental System? Nothing worth as it won't return ever to another title.

And I have to remind you that fans asked for OoT2 (Twilight Princess) and it is one of the best seller games in the franchise. Killing my ass. At least it's better than the crap they are doing like TFH.

I guess we're going to find out soon enough if Zelda U will offer a new twist to open world games! I really hope it does, it has the potential to be the best Zelda game ever made!

They've apparently been listening to feedback from the internet. I advise caution.

Do you mean the Zelda cycle that even Aonuma is aware of? pfff, that doesn't exist!

I don't want them to take fan feedback, 'cus Zelda fans are one of the worst kind of fans ever.



I'm so sick of items in Zelda. They can do better. A pleasant surprise would be touchscreen controls like Phantom Hourglass, but with voice commands added.



“If we put all the feedback the fans write directly into the game, there won’t be an element of surprise,”

Oh, the irony of this response. Does he not realize how formulaic the games are, in the first place. Your twists aren't gonna do much. 30 years has made everything done in some fasion. No matter how hard they try. It's gonna resemble something before. Unless they have villians that have removable crotch weapons or something like them using cars. Or Link has a item that is worn on his chest. Which could be a troll move. And causing the female Link debate.

All I want is Zelda stuff and no spaming prompts. And I'm good. Maybe make Link marry Zelda in one universe.
