    Loyalty we go hard on earth

    Apr 5, 2017
    Loving this game so far. I know I'm late, not very far either. Just got to the 3rd shrine (the one in the cold mountain area) using a torch and spicy peppers to keep me warm. Then I wasted like an hour trying to k--- these bokoblins in a tree house, shot all my arrows, threw flaming weapons at them.. then I found more arrows and lit them on fire and shot the flaming arrows at the ropes holding the makeshift bridge up.

    Didn't expect that to work but d---, it sure was satisfying getting onto that treehouse and getting my thrown weapons back. All that for an amber and 5 arrows lol

    Honestly brada, I bought a Nintendo 3DS just to play Ocarina of Time remake, and I don't regret it at all lol.

    I think I'm going to end up buying the switch in a bit anyways. I have 2 baby nephews, and I grew up playing Mario Kart on Nintendo 64, so it'd be nice if I could give them a similar experience anyways. So if the emulator thing works, I'll buy the switch in a few months, and if not, I'll get it soon as finals are over.

    Plus yo, sometimes u just wanna play kids games u kno?

    Game is amazing, if you like Nintendo games in general it's worth it cuz there's some dope games in the pipeline, but if you're mostly into just Zelda just emulate it like @Coco said.

    they had to what? lower the res of textures?
    nah, my point is, they have like almost hyper-realist environment textures, almost anime-like stylized and proportioned characters, then sci-fi structures that look like average game graphics. it's like 3 different styles thrown together and to me it's incredibly jarring and a bad design choice imo. that's like my biggest problem with xenoblade

    Just depends really... Link Between Worlds was a GREAT game for top down 2D Zelda and Skyward Sword is objectively the best Zelda yet... it just has the horrible wiimote gimmick and stamina system, etc but the actual gameplay was great and the story went further than usual from a Zelda. Windwaker stands the test of time with its cell shaded graphics that everyone hated and now it's one of the most loved. I think this will be the same way. Everyone hates the new Zelda when it comes out but then we don't get one for 4 years and you realize the past games were great. I see each Zelda as a Eminem album. They are all different approaches to the same formula and when you go back and listen you realize they are basically time capsules with their own unique feel #slimzelda

    I'm pretty confident that Nintendo is going to deliver. This is their first real attempt at a full fledged open world game and it's Zelda, their biggest franchise and Nintendo games tend to have extra soul put into them compared to the s--- from Sony and Microsoft. They are bad at a lot of things but Zelda isn't one of them.

    im like 90% sure you are right on this, but i'm also fairly certain the average gaming PC has more than enough RAM to make up for it, though there'd still be minor discrepancies in performance across the board. Like the games were made to run on wii u, not PC, so there will be bugs present at certain points, but for the most part a decent graphics card with 6gb+ of ram should run any game just as good as a wii u, if not better.

    fair enough, i've gotten too picky since delving into the world of game design - it makes majority of s--- in games now look lazy/uninspired. I'm also a perfectionist kinda when it comes to my work, and since im planning on working on games in the future i think that has carried over and i just go "well wii u runs in 720p sometimes 1080p, where as wii u emulator runs at 1080p sometimes 4k. nintendo are a s---"
    but at the same time i still praise nintendo because they literally created the open world meme that games are following today, 19 years ago, with legend of zelda/mario 64. small things like Z targeting (a staple in nearly any third-person game) wouldn't exist today if not for legend of zelda, ocarina of time.

    Well, i'm no expert, but isn't emulation known for being inefficient?The emulation itself requires it's own set of resources and then the game is processed through the emulator. My little theoritical knowledge from computer science class tells me that unless you have a high/mid pc you wont't be running that very well.
    Nice....alot of wii u games i didnt bother buying. Might get to them without replacing my borken one.

    oh and a mid range PC can run all these games well. high-end ones run them all well with 1080/4k graphics. my PC is actually more powerful than a wii u so it makes sense that i can run the games better (for the most part).
