pre-thread hype level = 1

current hype level = 5

Cautiously optimistic this is legitimate. I really like the idea on many different levels, from the fact that it likely means it will be challenging (otherwise why bother?), to the concept of a new Zelda or a new franchise, and even a bit of excitement that this might be the sort of thing that changes the industry......again.

Does that scale go up to 11?

I think if a trailer for Zelda came out everyone would be at an 11.

Actually it goes from 0 to Pikmin 3.

My view on it is if the game needs a hint system, and not just a hint, they appear to actually show exactly what to do (as opposed to faires and such in older games just hinting at something to do with a rock for example) then the entire game will suck for anyone who wants any challenge.


Having this hint system doesn't mean they can crank the difficulty up, because the hint system will only help with puzzles, when it comes to fighting enemies those enemies are meant to fight the people who need the hint system as well as those who don't. Which means either really tough enemies that 'casuals' can't deal with, or really weak ones that both casuals and core gamers can. Pretty obvious the more logical choice, and I doubt they gonna get a hint button to kill the enemies for them.


I'm calling it now, this game will have no challenge, only need look at all Nintendos games recently to realise they aren't bothering to create any anymore.

You are behaving like a silly billy.

Enemies haven't been the primary source of difficulty in Zelda games since 1989.

Perhaps if it were mandatory you would have a point.  But from the wording in the patent this is going to be an optional feature and one that will requrie active use.

That isn't what he's saying. He's saying that even if the puzzles are made harder by this, the enemies are still going to be too easy, and he's calling it now.

to me he sounded like he was saying the hints will makes the puzzles way too easy. Which its like turn em off moron.

And again, who has ever died in a zelda game anyway? monsters never kill anyone
