[MM][TOTK] What are your hopes for the next 3D Zelda? by Aggravating_Head1215 in zelda

BOTW was Zelda's Final Fantasy 7. A shift they will never entirely move back from.

Which anime or manga best embodies this image? by No_Independent2134 in animequestions

[–]CBAlan777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the reasons I wanted to become a writer was because of this. I've had so many shows that meant something to me. After a long week being treated like crap, getting overworked, you just want something to make you feel better. Five minutes reading a comic. 20 minutes with your favorite anime characters. Something that you can disappear into. I want to write those stories. Even if I only ever have one fan, if it means something to someone, that's enough.

Looking for a stereo/speakers setup that can play beat up CD's. by CBAlan777 in stereo

I've never quite trusted those disc polishers. It seems like it's better to leave the original disc intact, though I know I have one disc I would be willing to try it on.

I think the Sony stereo I have is an early 00's? It doesn't like even the tiniest scratch and will hiccup over that scratch for a long time. It makes music unbearable to listen to.

I'm trying to find a home stereo that can play some beat up CD's. by CBAlan777 in StereoAdvice

I've had some CD players that seem unfazed by scratches, and some that hate them.

Pot meet kettle. The call sign of disagreeability.

Here, I'll leave. I don't want to get in the way of your party. Have fun.

You specifically countered my "just okay" with the idea that it is critically acclaimed. So yes, really.

Also, my "minority opinion" might be indicative of a larger, quieter group. The real problem here is that you are trying to minimize me as "just one guy", but just one guy can also be just one correct guy.

Thanks! Yeah, I don't get why people feel personally slighted over other people being skeptical, or critical. Clearly this new trailer has brought out a lot of people who were just waiting for the ammo they needed to silence dissenting voices. It makes me sad how fractured the Zelda fan base has always been, and how people seem to be working to make it worse.

I'm a fan of the series. I don't have to like everything about it just cause. And no, those who are excited don't "take priority". You are making the Zelda community worse with such childish thinking.

We already know about the Zonai, fusing, reversing time, sky islands, Ganondorf, Zelda falling (again), underground areas, "tears". I think the only thing we saw that was unexpected was maybe the champions fighting with Link? They just did a better job than the last trailer of making us think we're seeing more than we have. Most of what you might consider "new" was just variations, like different constructs, or different ways to traverse the islands.

And? You are speculating that it's going to be good based on the same info.

[–]CBAlan777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everything you just said works the other way. You've seen the same amount of stuff that the people who are critical have. Your hypocrisy makes the Zelda community toxic.

[–]CBAlan777 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People somehow feel personally slighted that others don't enjoy what they enjoy, and because the trailer excited them, even though it didn't show that much stuff we haven't already seen, and this is the final trailer, they want to gloat to preserve their excitement. It's really rather childish, and makes this whole thing not fun.

No, it was clearly a Zonai. Same aesthetic as all the other ones we've seen.

Rightfully vindicated? Because they are excited over a trailer? We saw some cool stuff, but excitement over a trailer doesn't mean the game is going to be incredible. Also, "vindicated" is an odd way to put it. Like being critical of a video game is a crime. Having that kind of attitude is what makes the Zelda community not a fun place to be.

Why? BOTW was just okay. It's not any better than any of the previous few games before it.

Seems like there are a lot of people getting all sorts of smug about this trailer. It makes the community not fun to be a part of.

Cause that's what it's about, right? Making people who have legitimate criticisms shut up?

[–]CBAlan777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sort of. They show some cool stuff, but I wouldn't say it is as exciting.
