just a lurker from the deep
@Churchy My first horse is brown and white named マーベル (maaberu). This is a transliteration of "Marvel", but can also be taken as "marble" because she kinda looks like marbled ice cream. Also, 馬 (ma3) is the word for horse in Mandarin. My second horse had much less thought put into his name; オリオ (orio) or Oreo, cause he's black and white.
@Nillend My main counterpoint here is that a good Zelda is always better than just the sum of it's parts. A good Zelda never has the best combat, hardest puzzles, most expansive towns, deepest side-stories, etc. But a good Zelda melds all the elements it does contain and presents a wonderfully crafted, full-fledged game that leaves a lasting impression.
If you're looking for specifically the game that best does X mechanic, sure, Zelda most likely won't be that game. But if you're looking for a complete and fullfilling experience :ezaBackseatBosman:, Zelda is looking to be just that.
@Haru17 Good to hear it officially stated as such. All I ask is that the main game ships with a complete story, anything additional the devs feel like making, I'm all ears. I've yet to be disappointed with Nintendo DLC and eagerly await this one.
@Matthew-Whetzel Of all the things people are trashing Zelda and Nintendo for, the lack of dual/multi-audio is the deepest cut for me. Still super excited for the game, but I have never been a dubs guy and that trailer has not swayed me.
@Art Self-identified realists rarely are.
@swhiley If you have me added as a friend through the 3DS friend code, you should be able to find me in the Linked Trade list. Connect to the internet by clicking the blue wifi symbol in Festival Plaza bottom screen then go Trade>Linked Trade. My nick is Diro.
@swhiley I've added you. I'll leave my game open for a while, just request a trade whenever's good for you.
As one that hasn't had their song picked yet, I selfishly would support a soft-ban if your song was already picked recently. But realistically, with as many songs as there are in queue, the difference between 1 in 350 and 1 in 340 is insignificant and would just read as a feel-bad. I do think the recency bias should be made explicitly clear though. The initial rush of song re-listings when Kyle announced it last night was humorous, but I don't want chat to just constantly flood with people trying to be the newest in queue all night long.
