Read the first one and was like, "OSHIZ." and closed the window before my eyes could wander to the next bullet point.

Hi. I want to play this game now.

That's what I did... except I read the second point, then stopped. I think I'll just wait until I play the game to find out all that shiz.

Same. Also I'd like to say one thing quick, based on something that happened in #PureZC last night:

NO SKYWARD SWORD SPOILERS IN CHAT WHATSOEVER. KEEP THEM OUT OF CHAT.

It's nearly impossible to avoid seeing spoilers in chat and what was said (which I will not repeat and may not even be a real spoiler) was something I really wanted to find out for myself. So please. Keep them out of chat and in here, use spoiler tags. Thank you.

So, I won't post it because of spoilers, but the Spanish intro to the game was leaked. I'm ignoring it myself, but I thought it was interesting how insecure Nintendo is with this thing. Also, I figured a few of you are now currently mashing on your keyboard trying to find it.

And about that most recent info dump, I wouldn't call any of it spoilers. It really just gives names to a few characters and places. Nothing that you wouldn't learn within the first ten minutes of the game anyways. The most spoiler-ific tidbit was the name of the second dungeon, which we've seen plenty of anyways.

Additionally, all of the new info was pulled straight from Nintendo Power, so if you get the magazine and don't want to be hit with "spoilers," avoid it like the plague. I'd suggest burning it.

Burn it with a fiery gaze with the book opened to the pages containing spoilers!

Okay, these videos put my beyond what I thought the game would be. the first made me swell up, the second made me tear up.

GOD DAMN NINTENDO. I want to know. HOW do you do it. How?? This game is going down in history, as one of the best game ever. Count on it.
Heck, this game has already passed all of the CoD's.

- 100 staff are been working on this for 5 years.
- The introduction bit takes several hours this could hint we do get 50-100 hours of gameplay!
- SS is their biggest game made yet to date
- SS is the hardest Zelda game yet

Of course this is going to match or even beat OoT! icon_biggrin.gif

Woot! All aboard the Hype Train! I am so excited. Why am i such a Zelda whore?

Here's a new trailer showing Zelda's and Link's relationship more. Maybe there will finally be romance between these two.

Both of these, especially the last one are entirely speculative. They always say it's the biggest game yet (they did with TP, and Wind Waker is arguably bigger), but the second bullet-point is impossible for you to predict right now, and I highly doubt it will be the hardest one to date, because so far, the Zelda series' difficulty has been lowered slightly with each new iteration.

It may be harder than both TP and WW, but again that would be entirely speculative, because no one has been able to play through the entire game yet.

Here is where I got the information from all of these could contains spoilers (or at least minor ones):
http://www.zeldadung...hours/#comments < IGN talks about the Introduction (no gameplay videos)
http://www.zeldadung...lated/#comments < The demo we saw a while back now translated (states 100 staff are working on it for five years and it's their biggest game made yet)
http://www.zeldadung...owout/#comments < NGamer's state that it's the hardest Zelda yet.

How many staff generally work on a Zelda? There's visual design, modeling, lighting, texturing, animation, programming, testing, level design, cutscene planning, dialogue writing, music composition, music recording, voice acting (well exclamations anyway), you get the idea...

I don't care what Nintendo says about it being the 'biggest Zelda', I said earlier that they claimed that about TP too and that wasn't true. It's called marketing icon_wink.gif

And when it comes to saying that it's the hardest Zelda to date, that is impossible for him to predict without having played the entire game, which I can assure you he has not. It's also a very subjective statement, and it doesn't mean you'll think it's any harder than say, AlttP, just because he said so. Besides, I doubt it'll be harder than Z2 anyway, and if they have done that I must say I don't really want to play the game after all, because it's no fun not being able to actually play it. Z2 lacks proper good design in this aspect, and that's why it's a bad game. I don't think they're making the same mistake with SS.


However, I am not saying it can't be challenging, or long, I am simply saying that you should not be stating those points as facts, when you have no way of knowing if they are actually true. icon_shrug.gif

Just because combat is more complex, does not mean it is harder.

When did Ngamer said that? O_o

All they said was "It's the hardest Zelda yet" not "The new combat scheme makes this the hardest Zelda yet"...

I believe this will be hard. But then again I could be wrong.
