I dont see why you think that Xenoblade X will be far better game than Zelda U when every 3D Zelda game are great and Zelda U looks like it will one of the best Zelda games.

"There has not been any good Zelda game since Ocarina of Time"!?

I consider Ocarina of Time not only best Zelda game but best game ever, but saying there has not been any good Zelda after OOT is BS. I still need to play 3D Zelda game that isnt "any good", every 3D Zelda game is great (you have officials and players revives like fact), even if OOT is better than some later Zelda games.

But Xenoblade Chronicles is a masterpiece and so far Xenoblade X has also been getting a lot of love. Thre is no reason to believe it couldn't. In fact, if we asked what was the better wii game Skyward Sword or Xenoblade Chronicles there ould be a LOT of people that said Xenoblade Chronicles.

Xenoblade Chronicles is masterpiece and Skyward Sword isn't exactly best Zelda ever, but Zelda U looks like will be one of the best Zelda ever, and Xenoblade X doesnt look like its better or masterpiece like Xenoblade Chronicles.

You shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

My judge is based on things we have. About Zelda U my judge is based on all Nintendo said about that game (plans and development), and based on things they showed.

All current Japan version reviews suggest that Xenoblade X is a very good game but Xenoblade Chronicles Wii is better. Most critics do not like that the story is only 12 missions long and gets interrupted with mandatory boring side quest missions all the time which are up to 6 hours long. The game is not focused on the story as much as the original Xenoblade which is not a good thing.

Regarding Zelda, the art style is childish and resembles Wind Waker which I could not play for that reason. I would love to see something more realistic and the gameplay should evolve into the direction of Dark Souls a bit.

I have bad news to you. Aonuma, the guy in charge, has an insane obssession with cartony graphics. Maybe if the executives demands a realistic game we will get. Otherwise, not, unfortunately.

A LOT of people are jumping to REALLY far conclusions when talking about what Nintendo has "said about the game".

Of Course when they talking about development of that game, what they are doing and what they will do, that people will expect that. Also that two videos they showed agrees with what they are talked about game.

Well, if you only talk about what has been shown in the video, great.

So what's LoZ Wii U going to do to compete with that? 


It's a Zelda game.



Simple. They're reshaping how a Zelda game plays to be huge, non linear, open world rather than simply being a refinement or the predecessor with some extra features.

XCX devs had a good idea how their game would turn out before they started simply because they didn't set out to radically reinventing what they did before. Zelda U is a risk as they're taking the series into new territory.

Well they show us only little part of game, but that showed us is part of their plans they talked about, so I dont have any reason to doubt about any other things they said about game. From new Zelda after Skyward Sword I wanted big and beautiful world, and that's what I am getting with Zelda U.

I would say having a huge, non linear, open world has already been done before in Legend of Zelda (Legend Of Zelda, Adventures Of Link, and A Link To The Past, A Link Between Worlds, ). Zelda U looks to simply be a refinement of these with some extra features (slow motion mechanic).

The games became more linear as time went on to construct a story, which I think Zelda U is going to lack greatly. I wonder how many people will start to miss the linear formula when Zelda U comes out...

Is Xenoblade X not going to deliver a big and beautiful world? It is also going for a non linear approach for the first time EVER.
