Legend of Zelda thread - Lorefags GTFO!

[NerdShamer]

Skyward Sword was kind of half-baked, in my opinion. Flying is mostly done for the immersion and fighting with an sword wasn't as brutal as it could have been. But I still like how Ghiraham is secretly gay for Link.

Honestly Skyward Sword done right is just God of War 2018.

GOW did the up close melee combat better, it has similar puzzles and quest structure, and had an open hub leading to other outdoor areas designed like a dungeon itself before getting to the main dungeon..

But does it have sexual harassment in it?

I always felt Skyward Sword and the DS zeldas abit too gimmicky to enjoy. I replayed Skyward Sword again and its repetitiveness bored me, but I did finally manage to finish it. Having to revisit the same areas with different gimmicks really bored me I guess.

So, dipping in here (was going to revive it before Lone did) to bitch about Skyward Sword.

How, the actual fuck, did this game not kill the franchise? It is the most god awful shit pile I have ever had the misfortune of playing, and I've played the CDI versions. At least those had the excuse of being new tech that wasn't even meant to be games.

Slow, time wasting garbage with a god awful control scheme, no good music (Groose's theme is ok when put to a beat, I'll admit.), a story that only serves to cock up the perfectly servicable mythos, and the fuck ugliest characters I have ever seen.

I'd rather sniff Tingles jock than play this shit more than once, because at least then, I don't have a hideous rock thing telling me it's a jock three times.

Lol calm down Egoraptor.

Love how Skyward Sword is basically summed up as just lame. Like the amount of hate/criticism isn't worth it because the game is just... meh.

Yea I loved the part in Skyward Sword where link ran around with his son

Yeah Linkulad was the best part. It was jarring to see link rip out ganons spine after cutting out his eyes with the hook shot but hey

Personally, I blame the amount of hype that the devs generated before it's released.

Apparently the TP manga is all wrapped up in Japan now. All that's left is the localization. Really good adaptation in my opinion, it did a few things weird, but overall expanded on elements like Zelda's incarnations in really interesting ways. The Midna/Link shippers also get all the fanservice they could want.

I haven't heard of it but oh boy.

That is not from an official zelda manga, I'll refuse to believe it is

You people forget how much of a pain in the ass it was to fight the Lizalfos in SS. If they were to normalize the combat and make it not use motion controls it would have not been that far off from what GOW did. Needing to have your shield up to block, doing specific swings to break stances, it was very similar it's just they put it into a very cumbersome control scheme.

All the sword bullshit was front and center for SS and made combat more annoying than previous versions.

Git gud, retard.

All I did was whack them until they started mocking me and then I get an free stab in.

I never played current year god of war so I don't know how that game did combat. I recently played through skyward sword switch port and played it with the controller. It definitely would have been better with normal controls and I generally do not like motion controls, but they were still usable. Yeah the lizalfos were kind of a pain but didn't have to fight a ton of them. My most hated enemy was the hydra because I always got hit no matter what.

I did I beat the game with 100% completion.

Still doesn't make the sword combat any less ass. My most memorable use was distracting Gannon with the fishing pole just like in TP.

Wait, there was hype?

Zelink fans on suicide watch.

Get gud, sped. Fling them joy cons around some more. Probably can use the exercise.

And no the fuck you did not 100% that piece of shit game. You better screen cap that bitch.

 

[BananaSplit]

It is indeed the official manga licensed by Nintendo.
It obviously takes some liberties over the source material but it was an enjoyable read

Dude I already do pushups between posts and that's even before my normal gym routine

 

[NerdShamer]

Wait, there was hype?

They had an Zoom call with the crew of Game Informer wandering through the volcano region. One of the few things that they were excited about is how you could roll bombs to kill an specific monster.

Jerking off to Sony does not count as push-ups. Try again.

Now, that's just sad.
