Ericdaddy, I love and respect you.

Address the point please
top row
two masterpieces
two very good games
one piece of shit
bottom row
two huge steaming piles of shit
That's the same for most franchises nowadays isn't it?
13 years of Sonic from 91-04 is Sonic 1-3 & Knuckles, CD, Adventure 1, 2, Heroes
13 years of Sonic from 12-25 is Lost World, Forces, Frontiers, and Generations (again).
In other words, Sonic went through multiple revolutions in It's first 13 years, compared to being the same boost-shit for the past 13.
Same for 3D Mario.
96-09' is Mario 64, Sunshine, Galaxy 1 and 2
12-25 is... Odyssey. Just... Odyssey. 3D world and Bowser's Fury if you count that I guess.
Game development takes too damn long now.
The only franchise I'm actively into that keeps pace is the Yakuza franchise.
OP is right and the guy spamming a bunch of images is mindbroken by the simple truth that Zelda is slop now
Inb4 ">now"
Yes, now. Open world slop killed Zelda.
Samefag
you didnt ask any questions
For every schizo post you make where you seethe about OP BTFOing you, I'll bump this thread. Tired of retarded schizos like you. Let's get this thread going for 24 hours.
You sound mentally ill, op
based
death to all archiveposting troons
Everyone runs out of ideas. Mario is a racing game now for example.
Samefag
I know someone who is working on a game that is basically a classic 3D zelda
Someone should make 1 of the 2D games also. It was like 11 years between A Link Between Worlds and Echoes of Wisdom.
seethes about being exposed
Kek ;)
that was a fun thread
this is just a symptom of a general design shift from properly paced, limited options to a meaningless "you can do everything" approach that makes all you do essentially meaningless
Op, why are you replying to yourself?
noooooo people can't have sensible opinions
here's your (you)
Zelda died with WW/TP, who fucking cares.
Samefag cultist.
botw 3 for switch 2 in 2030 will change gaming once again
2 new enemy types and they add like redstone or something.
I like TOTK but the changes to the core gameplay where lazy as fuck
then vs now: 27 years ago
Can't believe they ruined Zelda...
The thread is dead, you need to let go
Samefag op the cultist of trans
i get shitting on TOTK, but BOTW was a leap
You get what you pay for zoomer :)
speaking about samefags,
if I'm op you don't have to get worried about me bumping the thread.
Nobody is falling for your phone, snoyop
I le killed the thread
No, you didn't. Here's that bump I promised. Sorry it took so long. I forgot. This will be the first of many, though.
BotW and TokT are ubislop.
Echoes of Wisdom exist and I quite like it.
Nintendo Skill Issue
Game Development Issue
Definitely much better than the open world slop, but the gimmick is not particularly fun and it takes too much of the game's space.
The opposite is From who release a new game every 2-3 years but at some point the recycling becomes very obvious. It's like innovation itself, from gameplay to animation and artstyle, just doesn't happen anymore.
40 years of Zelda
Then vs Now
Who cares, they're all equally peak and kino.
I already have BotW, TotK and the DLC.
I also have NSO. So when I get my shiny new Switch 2 this week, I get to play the upgraded Deluxe Definitive editions of these masterpieces at no cost.
In fact, Switch 2 now has all almost Zelda games. only Twilight Princess remains and they'll add that to NSO at some point, probably next year for the 40th anniversary.
Low effort threads make me kinda sad but i do agree. The two most recent open world zeldas have been very meh in my eyes. I'm not sure why exactly but there zero appeal to play them.
Based.
I have all of those on PC with various improvements/mods at no cost. BotW and TotK still suck shit.
I'm not sure why exactly
Same exact reason why open world slop is like this. It's just a shit genre that is far better in marketing than it is in actual execution.
Now do Dragon Quest, Castlevania, Metroid, and Kid Icarus those are turning 40 too

Schizofags getting too uppity, you don't single handedly decide what gets discussed here
I have all of those on PC with various improvements/mods at no cost
You have illegal roms and they're not portable on your PC. You're not seriously sitting at a desk to play ALLTP are you?
LOL
Best versions of BotW/TotK are now on Switch.
I love when schizos say "shrine" as if it's one singular thing rather than 1/150 completely unique mini dungeons.
Pic-related would have been a bombable wall with a chest containing 20 rupees in previous Zelda games.
Baby needs his corridors and handholding.
Pic-related would have been a bombable wall with a chest containing 20 rupees in previous Zelda games.
Difference being in previous Zelda games you don't spend 30 minutes faffing about in between Bokoblin camps and empty space to find that pic related, because there was actual design before they fell for the open world slop meme.
I'm still not buying Switch 2
I love when bootlickers say "unique mini dungeons" as if it's interesting enough content rather than mindless contextless mini puzzles you could've gone through in any other game and not even noticed they have anything to do with Zelda
Bottom looks better, yeah. There's gonna be multiple of those corridors and in a well designed game they are all gonna be worth my time, unlike the slop at the top, which is always, always, always not worth my time.
And one thing that image very wisely tries to hide is that in the bottom image, it takes you 7 minutes, not counting battles, to explore all of that area. On the top image? Two hours, bare minimum. The empty space and repetitive content adds up fast.
actual design
Both BotW and TotK are vastly more complex on design than previous Zelda games. The "design" you're talking about is simply artificial LIMITATIONS.
Glad we're done with that shit.
mindless contextless mini puzzles you could've gone through in any other game and not even noticed they have anything to do with Zelda
At least play the games before you talk shit.
They're only more complex in design in that they have mathematically analyzed all the open world bloat they can get away with, just like Assassin's Creed Syndicate is way more complex in its design than A Link to the Past.
Limitations are what make games games.
DELETE THIS
completely unique mini dungeons.

2 okay games and 3 shit games on top
2 great games on bottom, plus EoW
No more OoT clones. Ever. N64babies lost.
it's a great game because.. it sold a lot of copies
I wish having normalfagbrain was terminal
epic nintendo crash out
pokemon is a metroidvania because you backtrack
I have absolutely no context for anything going on in this thread but I am also frustrated with the stagnation of AAA video games.
game is now playable for 3yo
They improved Zelda
Why is EVERYTHING stagnating?
top looks like a HOMM3 map
Breath of the Wild comes out
IT'S NOT UBISLOP BECAUSE THERE ARE NO MARKERS
The Witcher 3 comes out
IT'S NOT UBISLOP BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH DEPTH TO THE RPG ELEMENTS
Elden Ring comes out
IT'S NOT UBISLOP BECAUSE THERE ARE NO MARKERS AND THE GAMEPLAY IS CHALLENGING
Look inside
They're all fucking ubislop
I don't trust you fags anymore with this shit. Open world drones and franchise drones that keep defending games when they get open world sloppified are scum.
Nintendofags just haven't been the same ever since TotK lost game of the year. They've just become comically vengeful and vigilant against negative posts ever since.
Bump. You do not single-handedly decide what gets discussed on Anon Babble. You will not kill this thread with your autism. Feel free to give me a (You) accusing me of something so that I can bump it again.
Wrong
YOU MADE ME DO THIS
lol, as if you weren't going to bump this thread for hours
BotW released in 2017 you dumb fag
Why are you like this?
What new 3D Zeldas came out between SS and BotW? Please, enlighten us.
If Skyward Sword hadn't been so god awful I'd have been more upset about the paper-thing character interactions and the shitty cooking and trading in Breath of the Wild.
But what it did well it did very well.
Not well enough for the complete cop-out that Tears of the Kingdom represents to just do it again, however. Give me new art. New characters. And a new world. AND PLEASE GIVE ME NEW INTERACTION SOUNDS I'M GOING FUCKING INSANE HERE.
I sincerely wouldn't have, no. In fact, I can tell you exactly what I would have done, I went ahead and looked on the archive for a previous post of mine:
Here, I would have simply posted something. Moved on with my life, if anyone replied, I'd reply too, naturally. I have the thread watcher up. Most likely, what would happen is the thread would die if it didn't have any discussion. It's not like I was gonna keep bumping it for no reason.
But I clicked this thread, saw a faggot spamming it up with the intent of killing it, and yeah, things are different now. This thread will live for as long as I feel like it. Strap in.
tfw didn't buy any of this
The best part is that TotK started as a DLC and is an asset/world rehash, so basically 2012-2025 only have one new 3D Zelda to speak for.
Samefag
I don't believe you.
Limitations are what make games games.
Yes and this concept is alive and well in BotW/TotK. You're just not tied down by artificial limitations. It's ridiculous being the legendary hero who will save the world but you can't climb over a 2ft fence.
You sound like a mentally cultist, kek
I didn't either. I pirated all of them.
Video games take longer to make as they become increasingly complex, higher production affairs. It's unavoidable when the prevailing sentiment from consumers is always "be bigger and better than last time." I miss when Sony made three games in a series per generation instead of zero, but that's just where we're at until something changes.
Game has padding up the ass and is boring ubislop
BUT AT LEAST LINK CAN CLIMB FENCES
Why are open world fags like this?
Samefag op
clean it up janny
By the way, just want you to know that if you somehow get the jannies to delete this thread, I will remake it even though I'm not the OP of this one. We are getting a 500+ reply thread shitting on your open world slop and there is literally nothing you can do about it other than help out with the post increasing.
Am I missing some Europistani ESLism here?
Game has padding up the ass
BotW has no padding kiddo. You can walk straight to the final boss at any time you feel capable.
Game has no padding because you can ignore it
Retard
R* will save up
Read it backwards ;)
More open world slop yaaaaasssss
kys
Great Plateau and Great Sky Island
Wow. So the fanboy running defense 24/7 on Anon Babble didn't even actually fucking play these new games.
I'm not the OP of this one.
pffft
he is a indian. we had 1 day free of him when india was getting raped by pakistan
Ohhhh. You're trying to avoid getting caught by filters and jannies.
Great Plateau and Great Sky Island
How the fuck are those "padding". Can you hear yourself?
You said "You can walk straight to the final boss at any time you feel capable". This is a lie because you can't skip the tutorials in BotW or TotK. Hell, TotK makes this worse with the mandatory walking section at the start, the unskippable Ganondorf awakening cutscene, and stopping what you're doing after the first three Shrines to do the forced Heart Container check.
How did you skip the tutorial in ALLTP OOT and every other Zelda game?
He wrote, on a indochinese matchstick manufacturing board.
AlttP and OoT had their tutorials baked into their first dungeons. Again, you'd know this if you actually fucking played the games.
Jannies actually cleaning up instead of deleting a thread
arigatou~
AlttP and OoT had their tutorials baked into their first dungeons
What the fuck do you think the Great Plateau and Sky Island are?
Portraying OoT and MM as different games
HAHAHAH
They were literally
Same looking
identic movements
etc.
muh eric seethe thread
slop of the goyim will never be good, get over it
change colors
turn brightness up
“Yes, herro plecious customel. You must to be pulchasing now!”
Not dungeons. And despite being open world sandbox games, both of them are so fucking fascist and insistent on you doing these tutorials that they made entirely sure you can't do anything to skip past them. The evil mean linear games don't do this. It just goes to show the level of respect Nintendo really has for the intelligence of the new fans they wanted with these games.
At least the world and the story were new.
And you got to transform into three different characters.
TotK is basically the same game functioning the same way. Sure, you got a few new excuses for running around the world again, but there isn't a whole lot of new shit to do or see.
these threads are made by them to bait out schizos to ban

Not dungeons
Explain how the Great Sky Island isn't a Zelda dungeon?
Seems unnecessary, but I believe it.
slop of the goyim will never be good, get over it
She says, years after it released to universal acclaim, sold tens of millions and won an avalanche of awards.
Kek I love Anon Babble.
same looking
Not true, not even from a stylistic viewpoint. MM's use of the Expansion Pak allowed for higher resolution textures and increased polygon counts, and MM had a different artstyle and color toning for its world design.
identic (lol ESL) movesetsq
Also not true. Try playing the game for literally more than one fucking minute.
Image just says "Zelda" not 3D Zelda.
Link Between Worlds came out during that time.
It used to be good.
explain why the overworld isn't a dungeon
Face it my fellow manchildren. Zelda will never be good again. That gacha clone won.
The Sky Island isn't the overworld.
You didn't answer my question.
i blame tendies for how things are now
Explain how an isolated floating island that isn't on the surface is "the overworld".
Zelda peaked with the N64. The sooner you accept this the better.
Are you talking about that chinese game the name of which escapes me right now?
It-who-must-not-be-named.
It peaked on the monochrome Game Boy.
You can intuit that it was only talking about the 3D Zeldas based on the fact that it only fucking showed the 3D Zeldas. But if you're going to insist on being a pedantic bitch, that just enhances the OP's point. With the non-3D games, 1998-2011 also gets
Oracle of Seasons
Oracle of Ages
Four Swords
Four Swords Adventures
Minish Cap
Phantom Hourglass
Spirit Tracks
Whereas 2012-2025 only also get
A Link Between Worlds
Tri Force Heroes
Echoes of Wisdom
It hovers OVER the world. Therefore, it's literally the overworld. See, I can be a smartass too. :) you really should be able to know what is and isn't a dungeon in Zelda terms.
But if you're going to insist on being a pedantic bitch
Oh I do.
See, I can be a smartass too. :)
And you're seemingly proud of it.
How about the inside of a shrine but behind the bomble wall and no name to tell you what to do?
Zelda will never be good again
I love the smell of cope in the morning.
the problem with modern Zelda is that they want their cake and eat it too, you can't have non-linearity without oversimplifying the experience.
The echoes are a nice adition and under different circumstances could have worked wonders but the core issue is still there and they refuse to acknowledge it, every single original game since ALBW has had that issue.
you really should be able to know what is and isn't a dungeon in Zelda terms.
You apparently aren't, however.
Searching for posts with the image hash ‘HUuqe6/cnCo72bRQ8M02GA==’. 65 results found.
Yeah you cope a lot.
should be able to know what is and isn't a dungeon in Zelda terms.
The Great Sky Island has all the hallmarks of a Zelda dungeon.
By your definition the Sky Temple from Twiight Princess isn't a Zelda dungeon either. It's funny how you try to act like a true Zelda fan when you clearly know fuck all about the series.
Peaking with 3Dshit
No. It peaked before that.
I don't know if we're ever gonna get sick of the open world meme over here, but even if we do, it will take Nintendo another decade to catch up. Zelda is gonna be shit for the next 15 years bare minimum.
well, with how horrible the development times have gotten those are roughly 3 games.
I really hope we can at least have some new art direction, even if they want to stick with the open world shit.
the real difference is that that old dungeons have a theme, coherence, usually introduce a new mechanic and have a story attached to them.
Botw/totk give you all the tools at the start of the game.
Shrines are the same theme and it's always an easy riddle and then a harder version of it. The reward is always the same.
Dungeons in old Zelda are part of the world, shrines aren't.
Pretty sure dungeons end with mandatory boss fights. In fact, BotW and TotK have those. You know where they have them? IN THEIR FUCKING DUNGEONS. Guess what the Great Sky Island doesn't end with?
Not to mention that the Great Sky Island is contiguous with the overworld by sharing the same map as the rest of the sky area. Dungeons also have their own dedicated maps. Oops!
The reward is always the same.
The reward is always useful and essential, leading to a new heart container or stamina wheel. The reward you get for completing a dungeon in older Zelda games is a heart container. It's always the same.
Guess what the Great Sky Island doesn't end with?
Sky Island has a boss fight. I say again; the Great Sky Island has all the hallmarks of a Zelda dungeon. As an old school Zelda fan, I recognized this immediately on my first playthrough.
kek
Your reading comprehension, uhhh, isn't the greatest, is it?
gaming has....le stagnated???
Yes, brownskinned one, but it is too late to do anything about it now.
wow instead of getting an extra heart you get a credit point that you need 4 of to get either an extra heart or more stamina.
Completing a dungeon rewards you with progress by an item or story progress. The heart container is a reward for the boss that usually incorporates the last tool you got.
Something that doesn't exist in Shrines either.
it took just those 2 last games for switch to fly off shelves.
amazing
Makes sense that Switchfags think the overworld is a dungeon. They're also men who think they're women.
You got BTFO.
Tools in previous Zelda games act little more than a key to a lock. It's kinda shit compared to BotW/TotK where your abilities are constantly used throughout in new and interesting ways.
I like to use pic-related a lot. Because BotW and TotK contain ALL the hallmarks of a previous Zelda games. Just done differently. Low IQ tards don't get it because their understanding of video games exists on a completely superficial level and they have no idea how video games actually engage their brains. But that's OK, I'm here to educate.
Because BotW and TotK contain ALL the hallmarks of a previous Zelda games. Just done differently.
You just destroyed your own point in one sentence.
Poor child doesn't understand what the word "hallmark" means.
You forgot all the handheld entries
So you actually think the Great Sky Island is the same as the Fire/Water/Lightning/Wind Temples? Completely indistinguishable categorically?
What hallmark of a Zelda dungeon do you think is missing from the Great Sky Island?
having its own dungeon map and not being contiguous with the overworld's
having a mandatory boss fight, mandatory mandatory mandatory mandatory (there you can't miss it this time)
Why does Zelda has the most schizo defense force on Anon Babble?
I know nintendo fags are especially snowflakes but Zelda fags in general lick the ass so hard I cant even pity them anymore
BotW was the first time in a long time that Nintendo had a "prestige" game that beat out the rest of the industry (especially Sony) in awards season. They never want to let that go.
I can see the Switchfag is back to scrubbing through Zelda wikis or longplays to desperately find a new vaguery or technicality to categorize the fucking overworld as a dungeon with.
It has its own map, you literally download the map.
It has boss fights, it's just optional and open to multiple different player strategies rather than a fixed routine.
Overall a total improvement over previous Zelda games.
but it's been 8 years
So 2011 was the peak of gaming? Makes sense, since there have been less and less exceptional games released since then.
can get a map
has a boss fight
Oh shit, Ikana Canyon is now a dungeon too.
Tragic isn't it?
Console gaming, maybe. PC gaming peaked years earlier, and declined in large part due to the focus shifting to consoles.
See
Has a franchise that went open world ever returned to a more structured format? Is Zelda doomed to be forever open world from here on out?
Is Zelda doomed to be forever open world from here on out?
Zelda was always intended to be open world. Thats how it made its name in the first place. Early 3D games were limited by technology. That's no longer the case. Going back to older 3D games now is honestly painful.
Non open world 3d games play just fine, old and new.
This but unironically. The bottom one is just objectively better in most game genres.
Well, it's a different genre. In these types of strategy games, the empty space serves as an obstacle itself in a way. Because it forces you to use time as a resource.
A lot of people don't think about it in RTS games, but in turn based strategies such as HoMM3 you really notice it because each of your heroes has a limited number of steps they can take.
It's the same for racing games. They're technically also just "corridor-based games", but on a micro level they're "open" and you're supposed to find optimal paths.
In RPG and adventure games, this just isn't necessary.
You're right. The golden era of PC gaming was probably 1996-2008, depending on how you look it might be more narrow.
The bottom one is just objectively better in most game genres
Just not Adventure games.
False.
Yeah I love adventure games where I handcuffed and restrictive. Don't want no world to explore my fantasy adventure game, that's Kar-ay-zee!
Final Fantasy is the only example I can think of. 16 is less open world than 15. For the most part, when you fall for open world slop, there is no going back.
Faggot
The problem is most game devs/level designers have no idea what they're doing and they completely fail to implement a good open world. So, ultimately the best open world games are ones where there are "corridors" guiding your progress, but the corridors kinda blend with the environment/world. So your journey is basically still guided and limited and you're effectively just playing a "corridor" game, except with less clarity of where to go and more pointless empty space.
I can't think of a single well designed truly open world game.
Mario always played it safe compared to Sonic. Boring but practical. Though i think the "New Super Mario Bros" series went a tad hard on this that I find the games bland to play.
Sunshine is still the last Mario game that felt different.
yeah I also remember when you had to fight Gohma 36 times in OoT
Yeah like any genre there's good examples and bad examples. BotW and TotK are fantastic open world adventure games and if you're going to show someone the possibilities and advantages of open world design, you would show them BotW/TotK.
Gohma is in TotK bro. You'd know that if you'd played it.
kek this
getting cucked by cel-shading for over a decade
Why are tendies like that?
Tools in previous Zelda games act little more than a key to a lock.
That's just not true.
There have been design flaws where tools were just a one time gimmick, but using individual flaws to critic the old system is weak. The novelty of botw/totk's tools run out way before you finished all shrines.
They are more utilizable than magnetic boots or a hookshot, but because of their complexity the devs lost control of the users possible actions.
TOTK especially. Player freedom is great, but the game doesn't force and barely encourages you to even use most of it's mechanics.
It's great that you can stick hundreds of things to your bow, but few of them are useful and none even necessary.
It's a sandbox game where half of its fun are basically self set challenges, because instead of making a bridge you can just fly over the cliff and instead of building a mech you can just hit stuff with your sword.
Not everyone enjoys this, people will literally optimize the fun out of the game because they have too many options to break any riddle and challenge in unintended ways.
Open world slop was a mistake
ALL the hallmarks of a previous Zelda games. Just done differently.
It contains ALL the hallmarks of previous Zelda games. Just done worse.
This thread is auto-saging for no reason.
people will literally optimize the fun out of the game because they have too many options to break any riddle and challenge in unintended ways.
Autistic people will find a way to ruin everything. That's why we consider Autistic people to be a subject of ridicule. They find ways to ruin older Zelda games for themselves too. Thankfully autismos are an irrelevant minorty and have no impact on my enjoyment of games.
Your thread is not that good, sorry.
Enjoy your corridors, gate-keeping and handholding bro.
False alarm, the catalog was just stuck. My bad, lads. I was in the process of making a thread to fill in for OP. I'm a man of my word.
lmao
Here's what my OP was gonna be, by the way:
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was released in 2017 and it was open world garbage. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was released in 2023 and it was yet more open world garbage. We have now spent 12 years in the open world shit era of Zelda, and it is my belief that even if open world stops being a meme on the western side of gaming, Nintendo will be a full decade behind in catching up. That means that Zelda is bound to be shit for at LEAST another 15 years. What went so fucking wrong, guys?
Didn't read.
Open world slop = Bad
This but linear slop.
Difference is Sonic was never good
lol
But apparently Mario Kart is gonna go the open world slop route as well? Grim if true.
Nintendo will be a full decade behind in catching up.
Western developers will never catch up to Nintendo. Imagine what they'll do with Switch 2.
Echoes of Wisdom is so fucking inferior to A Link Between Worlds. I hope the next 2D Zelda has a good gimmick that isn't just minecraft-tier shit.
That guy looks like a bitch
Get in line
Not entirely. Games are just taking longer to make in general, no matter their genre. But waiting 7 years for more open world slop is grim as hell.
autist are the one spending hundreds of hours trying dumb, unnecessary and backward solution.
It's the average gamer that plays a game, beats it and moves on
not bothering trying to build a vehicle more than once instead of just calling his horse
not combing every square inch of land for missed content
Replaying those boring games
Autism
People you like are the reason Nintendo dropped the ball with TotK. Shrines are a mostly brain dead concept that should have never be repeated.
that's cope
No thats just people having fun.
Some times, when playing BotW, I found climbing over the crest of a mountain and just stopping to take in the view. I found that more rewarding than some autistic pleb scheeching "there's nothing here?? Where's my giga diamond ultra blade?? This game is shit reeeeeee!"
Yeah low IQ plebs need fucking gassed and should stick to playing Fortnight.
forcing yourself to 100% an open world game
self set challenges
doing the same things over and over
that's only fun for autists
the longer you play the worse the game gets because you will encounter less and less new things, it becomes more tedious to find shrines and korok without looking them up, you get stacked with weapons and items and only need a few fundamental things to beat every riddle, enemy and challenge.
You can enjoy the view in a hundred open world games and ironically TOTK barely offers anything in that regard over BOTW.
forcing yourself to 100% an open world game
Wat? Who is forcing you? BotW is one my all time favorite games but I would never dream of trying to 100% it, that's autistic as fuck.
True shit
Not that anon, but as far as I'm concerned, this is you admitting the game is bloated.
This is like every big, old franchise these days. The only "innovations" have been graphics. AA studios are killing it though.
AA studios don't exist anymore
I miss the IP counter.
this is you admitting the game is bloated.
?????????? How is the game bloated when you can total control over it? The game can last 1 hour or 400 hours. That's up to the player.
For starters, it literally starts out with a mandatory walk-and-talk segment with an unskippable cutscene.
b-but muh story is important
Take a long walk off a short cliff, Druckmann. Story is NOT important in video games.
I can turn off the game too. It's still bloated.
Snoyric the sametrannying.

this is falseflagging, right?
Nice page 10 bump, trannic.
man N64 Zelda has such a timeless quality to its aesthetic. I guess it's the strength of a fundamentally good art direction
Erm, while I get what you're saying, it still looks really muddled. Everything just has a blurry feeling to it, an N64 limitation I'm sure.
yeah so have i, but i wanna be able to play these games at 60 FPS on handheld.
the deck can do CEMU botw near 50 FPS with the right settings, but it's all over the place so I have to lock it around 40 FPS.
the deck can't do totk very well and i'm not shelling out for a Legion Go because >$800 wangblows tablet and it still runs TOTK at 40 FPS on average anyway.
BotW and TotK still suck shit.
This is always their defense lol. "I have these games with these big quality of life mods at max fidelity...but it's not like I'd ever want to play the game, baka."
Either you give a shit about this game and people playing it, or you don't. Choose your narrative, discordanons
no that's just the resolution of the webm. if you run OoT at a higher resolution using something like ship of harkonen (native port of OoT to PC), you'll find that all of the modelling and texture work scale beautifully even to 4k. they really outdid themselves in the N64 era
totk would have been great without the shit ass underworld shit
Open world slop is for brainlets
A leap into boredom, maybe
I think this, say this and look like this
Make a strawman image
Still lose even in your imagined scenario
They ain't sending their best
You don't know what padding means
Least obvious sametrannying from eryc.
I feel bad for Nintendobabs that had to start pretending Ubislop design was good a decade after everyone else had already gotten sick of it. Same thing for Soulsfags.
Xisters, we can't kill this thread no matter how hard we cry about samefagging. What do we do?
Why is this snoysubhuman named eryc crying so hard?
Hahaha what a kuso game desu ne
Page 1!!!
fixed
wow graphics have stagnated? this has never been talked about before, or even thought about!!!! wowee what a revelation
Why are you such a pedophile, eryc?
I don't know why companies just do not make video games anymore. This is true for tons of major franchises and it isn't much better for small releases. What the fuck happened
top
5 games, 15 hours each, only one major mechanical change
bottom
2 games, 200 hours each, only one major mechanical change
Its the same picture.
200 hours of filler
ftfy

I'm Eric.
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
constant fetch questing, backtracking, npcs repeating information
not filler
fucking retard
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
I hate that modern games run like shit on my 4070ti super, while looking no different from games 10 years ago
Had to make his strawman less accurate
Grim
I emulated the first NuZelda and dropped it 3 hours in, I don't get why people were hyping it up so much. Same thing happened with Ghosts of Sushi. I'm starting to think console players just always overhype their exclusives.
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
Is this guy trying to make the thread hit the bump limit? He doesn't get to call anyone else mentally ill.
You don't want to know how deep the rabbit hole goes.
Pedophile snoytranny eryc., sametrannying won't save you
You did the same thing with the first two zelda games, perhaps its just not your thing?
wow you fucking got me with your strawman about strawmen.
based
Do you think it would be fair to call BOTW the single most overrated game in existence?
This thread is still up? Kek based Nintendo raped this board into oblivion. Can't wait to replay BotW/TotK on my Switch 2.
That's part of it, but there's also just genuinely open world tard subhumans like
can't wait to let TOTK/BOTW collect dust while I shitpost on Anon Babble
ftfy
No, thats oot by miles.
How come you took the screenshots of MM and OOT at different places and aged up link, but deliberately went out of your way to make botw and totk look the same?
Doesn't seem very organic
expecting an ootsnoy to be consistent
"its okay when oot does it" could be used to describe every single "gaming sin" people rail about today.
Unskipable cutscenes, repeated dialogue, fetch quests, filler, yellow paint, etc.
People were willing to give OOT a pass for this because it's a 30 year old game. A game that's not even a decade old shouldn't be repeating those mistakes.
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
because oot and mm don't share the same map
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
say "oot is good in the context of when it came out"
ootbabies spam you with "oot is literally PERFECT in every way, has never aged, and is good in modern contex as well"
I mean really, are you new? No ootfaggot will admit that a single part of that game is dated, overbearing, or frustrating.
willing to give OOT a pass
they didn't "give it a pass", it's one of the highest rated games ever made
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
???
No 2d Zelda
FUCK YOU
thread about to die
tranny trying to force ootsnoy and acfag both appear at the same time
How organic
How do we stop Nintendo from making the best games in the world consistently?
I simply wake up. Does the trick just fine.
the posts arent spam, they are chants in a ritual to summon schizos
kinda kino, desu
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
Egoraptor was right btw
The point made in that pic is correct, but calling BOTW-TOTK "13 years of Zelda" is stupid. There's a 6 year difference between the two games.
Egoraptor was headed in the right direction, but his annoyance with the combat seemed to be his primary point, and a weak one (I actually agree about the combat, but his point about it being objectively bad is silly) its also crazy he thought fi was worse than navi, its the same shit.
I think the best criticism comes from pariah and matthewmatosis, who point out the deep, deep problems with the game that previous and later games did much better, but everyone wants to fucking ignore because oot was the one that came out when they were 12.
not this anon but i like the cut of your gib. bumping until jannies rangeban all schizo nameposting.

Pedophile snoytranny eryc, sametrannying won't save you
im ivan actually sorry
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
I'm just here to post midna and bump this thread
which games/consoles does eric like or support? i literally want to embody this person until i can convince this schizo to kill himself
He hates Nintendo, apparently. Just shit on Nintendo and get him sperging.
Pedophile snoytranny eryc, sametrannying won't save you
omg perfect
i, eric, hate nintendo. sony is the best. after this thread, i'm going to cool down with 8 hours of movie games. did i mention that pokemon SUCKS?
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
he hates botw/totk, Armored core and pikmin
Unless each of those threads had their own "eric", I'm still not convinced "eric" is just the combined hallucination of several paranoid schizophrenics
The Ordon sword is peak normal vidya weaponry.
Also where is ALBW?
what's your favorite sony game? mine is god of war! BOY! lmao!! BOY!!!! does anyone else feel deep down that metroid and zelda are for babies?
lmfaaaao based "snoytranny"
it do be like that
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
this is the manliest nintendo fan
- eric (me)
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
ericsnoysissy finally makes a good point
can't look past brand loyalty to admit he raped you
zeldacuckywuckys...
Pedophile
impossible, i don't play nintendo games
lmao why are nintendobabs like this?
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
I really don't know anymore. The definition of "eric" just constantly changes. These console warriors just don't have an idea of it, so they accuse people of being eric at the drop of a hat. They also don't comprehend the notion of someone liking a game, regardless of platform. For example, everyone assumed I only liked Pizza Tower because it released as a PC exclusive, and they wanted me to hate it after it came to the switch. Lo and behold, I still consider it second place GOTY of 2023, much to the anger of console warriors.
they can't help it, because they like nintendo. very un-eric of them
ACsnoytranny, you know Eric because you consistently are in his threads.
I fuckin hated that beetle.
where is ALBW
he doesnt know that albw was the start of the botw/totk lazy "critiques"
Allow me to summarize:
the game isnt linear, so difficulty is impossible
these puzzles are too confusing
why does the game expect me to think about more than one thing at a time?
the combat is bad because I have no utility weapons
the dungeons are bad because I only have one item
the item rental system is bad because dungeons need to use multiple abilities
open worlds give me choice paralysis
open worlds are dead worlds
this story is objectively garbage because I dont understand it
the flatten gimmick means the game relies too much on one mechanic
its literally the same map
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
I actually waited for pizza tower to release on switch before playing it
just felt weird playing warioland on a pc
If there was a button that would instantly kill every person in this thread, would you press it?
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
I feel like there's another guy like "Eric" where he just gets brought up out of nowhere in random Anon Babble threads as some boogeyman, but I don't remember his name. And no, I don't mean "ACfag" (I swear I've been reading about "ACfag" for a decade now and I still don't even know what the AC stands for)
Eric and ACsnoytranny die?
lmao
here's me cooling off the The Last of Us 2 (tm), felt cute, might delete later.
if every post in this thread was made by a unique poster I would still be worth more than all of you combined, so no.
Everyone else maybe
basado
this thread's wild yo
Pedophile snoytranny eryc.
you're gonna post in another thread and forget you have that name equipped anon, don't do it, the embarrassment from such a faux pas might kill you
Pedophile snoytranny eryc, sametrannying won't save you
I look for Nintendo threads to discuss the games. Why is every single Nintendo thread an Eric thread? Is he the only one who actually discusses the games? I'm sorry for that coincidence, that sounds like a problem on your end.
ACsnoytranny, why do you?
you hate Nintendo.
real Nintendo threads are only for switch owners.
