Launch Timing Update for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Sequel 

I second this

Delays like this would be unbearable if the community wasn't given any information on them. Oh wait! *Team Cherry*

@@tumultuousv Silksong developer

Meanwhile the Pokémon series......

haha lol

I laughed for a full minute after reading this

I hope its delayed and then eventually canceled because this game is traah

trash

I am happy Cyberpunk released the way that it did. It was fun to look at, although some things were really bad like losing save files or causing serious crashes.

Cyberpunk was delayed over and over again bruh

Yeah, but hopefully they aren't doing a security breach and changing stuff just because people already thought of it and are just taking somethings people want in the sequel and using the things we want to make the game better. I hope that this game is good to prove the trolls wrong. I just hope the game's decent at least and surpasses and/or fixes and enhances the things that were in the original at most. If it even releases with some things being okay I'd still love it.

Both cyberbug and security breach

Cyberpunk had 10 YEARSSSSSS. AND THEY FORCED THERE EMPLOYEES TO WORK TO HARDDD

Sorry to ruin this, but i guarantee that they don't see this comment in it's entirety because the only way they can really read this is by using the automatic youtube translate, which is complete garbage. So they either *read it and misunderstand Or *don't see it.

@@BlueBerry20071 Don’t be that guy.

@@NoxWyatt oh no, not reality

Agree

@@BlueBerry20071 you do realise they probably have human translators to understand this. Even if they don’t, I doubt the entire Zelda team knows only Japanese.

Not exiting? xD They said the world goes even beyond ground and sky, and we also saw a Master Sword in quite the mediocre condition with a golden glowing orb thingy as well! :D This is 20 seconds that will keep the fanbase happy and exited for another half year speculating what it means :D

@@DerpwaldDuck Also, the orange thing came from the magic arm!

It's nice to get an update and some honesty. Next spring, now that's a clearer window and people can stop agonizing over rather or not it'll drop this year.

@@DerpwaldDuck goes to show how starved we are. They should’ve released another trailer by now at least or at least give us some more sneak peaks

yeah other companies would have just made a tweet about it

true fact.

shup up

@@ToadetteGamer2 you fricking everywhere this game is, if you dont like it than just mind your own buisness and get a life bro

@@thesilentshadow1256 facts

Expect for majorad mask but true

Hopefully it gets canceled its just so bad

@@ToadetteGamer2 no it’s not lmao

@@ToadetteGamer2 how would you know we have seen two trailers

and it is a masterpiece. a true masterpiece. it's affected me on a spiritual and emotional level.

I also love how they proud they seem to be about BOTW 2. That shot of Link falling from the sky really showed it.

Totally agree! I'd rather wait for something good than get something disappointing now.

It makes me ready to laugh and record these messages such that there is evidence of what happens when we suck too much copium

exactly

SAME

They weren't serious before lol?

Not only that, I will play the game at my own pace, and it's unbelievable that I got this game this year in the switch 5th year.

Even the cdi games?

May you live a healthy life, sir. I hope you can get your hands on tears of the kingdom in 2023 🙌

73 and still playing video games that sounds like a good life I hope you liked tears of the kingdom

I thought it was an April Fool's joke.

@@toxicg6710 yea I actually saw a video that said that it was.

shut ob

Yeah

Couldn't agree more. BotW is my favorite game ever and I hope this sequel surpasses it.

@@Pikachu0950 ?

PREACH ON, BROTHA!

Yes. I agree.

And even rushed they made Majoras mask in less than a year :0 not saying that they need to rush jaja, they are making sure the botw sequel is amazing and am down✨

I agree. It'll be well worth the wait for those who enjoyed the first. I just hope I don't die between now and then. lol. When someone suddenly cuts me off in traffic and I have to slam on my brakes, I don't think "Oh no! I'm about to die!"... I think "Oh no! I'm going to miss out on *insert highly anticipated video game, book, or movie*"

Not gonna lie, I am very disappointed and annoyed but your right I should be patient because they definitely are working on something good, in fact I should be prazing this decision for being honest with us are trying to make it the best they can.

@@guillermoantonio7474 I don't think that it was a rushed game just because it was developed quickly. They didn't try to bite off more than they could chew with Majora's Mask, and instead focused on developing the game around what they knew they were capable of with their time restraints. Majora's Mask isn't really an exception to the rule, because they were working efficiently within a short amount of time, not trying to rush to make something which they didn't have enough time to finish.

Yeah I feel like playing it a second time is nothing like playing it originally

Factsss

@@RavTheQueen That is very true indeed. The game puts a huge emphasis on exploration and discovery. I remember how much fun i had, walking and climbing around the whole map, to get to a point that looked interesting. But that is only fun if you wonder if there is something. If you know that there is nothing on that mountain, it’s not fun to climb that mountain. But yes the first playthrough is a magical experience and thinking about it, makes me even more excited for the sequel !

@@frantschou2369 I feel like magical is the only way to describe the first playthrough of this game and I haven't found a game that is even close to being like that ever.

I just hope they have more advanced cooking. Stack effects, you know? That was and still is one of my main annoyances in the late game. You have to choose what you want those half hour powerful effects to be. Most ingredients just start accumulating never to be used again. Like, for instance, all of the fruit and meat. Why use them when you can cook a single small hearty radish? Things like this, I really hope they redesigned. I want to feel the need to pick up ingredients, when I spot them, past the first 10 hours.

Also the fact they recognize they need more time to deliver a game for it to be up to the highest standard knowing they can lose clientele is something to respect

happened to cyberpunk and didn't work

shud up

Too bad ppl blame GF for everything when its TPC thats the issue. They will continue to rush GF since NO ONES calling them out, call them out so the devs can get more time

@@weroleoify I agree bro

@uwnv thanks for literally saying nothing important!

Seriously!

@uwnv We're not watching your vid bro

@Savetion 👑 I’m almost impressed how many times you’ve commented that so far on this video

C:

Cyberpunk was also delayed. If they're going to delay it after saying that production was going smoothly for months then the least they can do is give us any information about the actual game, a 3 second clip isn't enough.

@@Syn7axErr0r i mean it *is* a sequel. for all we know, the game could be near-entirely story, thus not having too much to show off without spoiling. regardless, its not like theyll never do a trailer ever again until the release. im sure another one will be coming soon.

@@thebugcoiiector If you can even call that a trailer. Looks more like Age of Calamity DLC.

@@kylehill3643 idk what that means but yea it was more of a clip than anything. still, i severely doubt theyd just leave us in the dark til release day

@@Syn7axErr0r Since when is Nintendo good with communication?

I'd rather play a game knowing the workers have a good work/life balance than play a game a few months earlier that workers had to work way too much over time for.

@@ryanmcclure8907 Man, I don't know anything about Nintendo's work/life balance culture, but if they actually do resist crunch it would be unique, not just among game companies, but among many Japanese companies too.

metroid dread is an exception but still a really good game

@@Amexy-mr6lw That was a Mercury steam problem, not a Nintendo problem.

@@thesnatcher3616 tbh yes

This is exactly how I feel. When you communicate with us, it’s easy to understand and not get upset. I’m excited this is going to be a huge sequel. I’m honestly still playing BOTW so it’s no big deal lol

Yeah. That’s a problem with a lot of companies, a lack of transparency with consumers.

Silksong moment

Sega.

Normally the games that they launch unfinished are Multiplayer games: Mario Tennis, Golf, Aces, Switch Sports, Splatoon 2, etc. Considering that the first BotW was delayed 2 years from its initial announcement, this isn't a surprise.

@@wogardrodriguez9699 splat 2 was rushed due to them wanted to get it out near the switches launch, so it ended up not feeling as polished and having a lot of gameplay errors

@@Inumaine eh? Ok i guess... Whats your point?

I mean, BotW is one of them. There's nothing to do in that game. Sad.

@@blossom357 you high?

I totally agree, its all so positive and I love it.

Seriously. I'm glad we understand that Nintendo wants to make a good game out the box.

I think it was the same when it happened with Metroid Prime 4 but I could be mistaken

I agree, I’m happy to see people support the decision rather than be rude about it as usual.

Nintendo has needed to do that for a while now.

Also helps that Nintendo has one of the better work cultures, so their decs aren't being burned out, Sakurai is a bit of exception.

@@keiichimorisato98 sakurai is a perfectionist and he feels alot of pressure from himself and the fans not really from Nintendo itself.

Ninty knows better than to pull a Cyberpunk 2077…

@@keiichimorisato98 And Pokemon. They don't get enough breathing room.

Yeah it’s definitely a HUGE passion project for Aonuma

i guess you could say it’s a breath from the wild this was awful but i’m not sorry

The Japanese are known for respect they give it I will return it in kind

be honest the only reason they are delaying the game is to try and win game of the year. The are done with the game. They aren't going to work on anything remotely new all the same things from the first game with such little new its a gloried dlc. smh but people are cash pigs to nintendo just because they're nintendo

this is the company who sold us odama

you kidding me, it is too obvious now why the delay, Switch 2 Spring 2023 launch.

@@octavianblake8305 What are you talking about? The game hasn't even come out for you to say those things.

@Octavian Blake - They'd win game of the year even if they released a full game in 2022 though so your reply makes literally no sense. 😂 I genuinely believe that development takes time, especially an open world game of this scale. It's not about being a fanboy, Nintendo is far from perfect with its practices, but I'm glad they aren't s***ting out zelda games like they do with pokemon.

Sega:Delays? What are those?

Sadly not all Nintendo games are like that,Pokémon don’t have the privilege of delays like Kirby,Metroid or legend of Zelda does the Pokémon games have to release a new gen every 2-3 years

Hey bandit! Also very true and it is really nice to see the Zelda community is so supportive towards it

shut

That's how you can tell they really care for their fans.

I wouldn't say "ready", scope completed but they precisely needed the year for polish

I don't want a rushed game. They can take the time they need to make it great.

This deserves more of it's time

Yeah, like cyberpunk

Exactly, thank you. More people need to learn patience

@@nolaklutz796 not like game freak 🤪

@@ebar952 that game had the next underwater mechanics

@@velvetbutterfly True, but it isn't really the same thing

@@crazyape515 didn’t that come out before twilight?

I mean, I'm almost happy to see they delay it to get more time to polish it instead of rushing it. (*cough Pokemon) it means the game will be like they wanted it to be in the first place or maybe they are adding more things. It can't be bad

Probably because they’re being very up front and not just leaving us to wonder and suffer. Bayo 3 kinda did that lol Plus we got a few seconds of new stuff to look at

*puts rock down and hides face*

@@ziron5385 How is Pokemon rushed? They've never said that. Also, Pokemon will sell more anyways. lol

at least it's spring 2023 for sure this time.

please. They delayed it because theres now legit competition for game of the year

Better than TPC constantly rushing the devs to release games 24/7

@@hued2542 who cares about that? All that matters is that we get delivered a fun experience and ,by the looks of it, the zelda team is gonna deliver

Its funny because the world map and most of the assets were already made and it still took them 6 years wtf lol

The Bank Of Japan has likely not allowed Nintendo to compete with the Sonic open world one as it is too much like BOTW (with platforms) if you watched the video trailer from the awards. Companies are not allowed to compete with each other or step on each other's toes in any way. They couldn't release it this summer because of Eldin Ring and they can't release it this winter cause of the Sonic Frontiers so what are they suppose to do?

@@kylehill3643 I don't think a bank controls the release of video games. Besides, the sonic game will be on switch, so why would they compete with themselves?

completely agree with u

@@kylehill3643 just let people enjoy things

but they can't take like another 3-4 years. it will for sure release spring 2023.

Quality from the first one looked good tho.

That's the key words here equal or better quality, some devs seem to forget that nowerdays.

Really hoping it’s far superior than BOTW because that game was pretty bad

@@chuganoga1908 no it wasn’t, it’s really good.

Very well said, couldn’t agree more. I’m so hyped!! :D

elden ring is still objectively better 😂

@@GrandpaToadGamer Let me know when you find who asked

@@nanashi2146 yeah that is a pretty random statement to make

Seeing a mainline Zelda game get delayed is not refreshing. It's expected. The only 3d Zelda not to get delayed was Majora's Mask.

if that's the case then Duke Nukem forever was the best game ever made

SAE, you're a Zelda fan?

@@jsmith3946 nah, I’m only stating that in the case of this game, time ages this game like wine, it only gets better the more they work on it

@SAE Id like to intimately understand you.😘

"quality" yeah right💀

@@GrandpaToadGamer yup! quality

@@GrandpaToadGamer bro what are you on about..? Quality is completely correct…

Me too! This video got me fired up :)

@@bendarom1363 Ignore the kid, let him play and be excited for the new Mario games

I think they should just push the initial announcement to a later date so that they can be more accurate with their release dates

They don't delay them to make them better, that's what they used to do, delay a product because it needs bug fixing and polishing. Nowadays they delay something because they're worried it won't make the next financial quarter or next year's profit margins. This game been delayed purely on horrible designers, which have no heart, controlled like puppets on a string by upper managerial executives who know nothing of game mechanics. Well imagine that huh? It's happening more and more often, and as the business sector continues to diversify and expand their executives, the development team is always under continued strain. They only want a pay check for a job, there is no more heart and soul, they do not do what they love, it's all a farce. It will be a rushed mess like nearly every game now, with missing features or changes that weren't warranted - and why? Well because the consumer means nothing, you're just a number to them. They game will come out when they figured out how they'll make money from it and how they'll market it to improve sales on their switch device. Then it will be rushed and underdeveloped. Wait and see 🤣

This is really more of a meassure of protecting their employees mental health than anything else, Nintendo is actually anti-crunch and had been like that from many years, there are reports of them being anti-crunch as far back as 2002 at least (when they bought Retro Studios) Now, this also translates to a better quality as the hours the team is working are more efficient when they are actually well rested and with a good mental health, and as Mr Miyamoto says "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad"

@@botterminator have you played breath of the wild? Phenomenal game, delayed multiple times (sure maybe the last one was to coincide with the switch), but that allowed it to be an extremely fleshed out and very fun game glowing with soul, not underdeveloped at all. Sure there have been examples of what you said happening with other franchises, but I'm sure every extra day they spend on this game will be to make it the best they possible can, as they did with botw.

@@baranorak4080 Dood it's a spam bot

It'd be dumb to be mad at a team that cares for it's project and releases bangers like Twilight Princess and BotW

I'm frustrated, not hyped. I will be hyped again when we get more information, like a real trailer.

@Shoka Lgbt I'm certain it'll release eventually. They've sunk too much money into it at this point to not release it. Just looking at BotW's developement shows that it'll happen regardless of if it takes another year

I think after the mess that CyberPunk and a few other games have been people are more willing to wait. I know a few years ago I would have been annoyed, but now as long as it isn’t delayed a ton I’m more than happy to be patient.

@@ogelsmogel Yea, i can understand but I'm sure it'll be worth the wait :P

Right? My guess is, assuming its still the same sword from skyward sword, that after multiple links have used it over the course of tens of thousands of years, its power is finally starting to deteriorate.

@@ToadetteGamer2 that’s impossible, it’s a Zelda game.

Choc!! The mastersword BREAKS!!!!! I thought it was a sword that never broke but it FLIPPING BREAKS!!!!

I fully agree this game is gonna be huge dude

Well at least they are delaying it for Spring 2023 release date just to improve the game's elements and quality. I'm ok with this. SEGA/SonicTeam is also doing the same with Sonic Frontiers in late 2022 since they decided to delay it.

@@joey_pasquariello it really is my guy especially since we now know the master sword can break. In BOTW 1 the sword only lost energy/power and disappeared for however long but in BOTW 2 its actually BROKEN

I agree plus it allows them to polish the game more to make it a lot better!

That was the worst-case scenario, yes, but the early parts of the year (even in the Spring lull) were getting overcrowded, too (esp. with Sony - they still don't space their stuff out better and release things in clumps). So it could be crowded in early 2023 as well.

*cyberpunk enters the chat*

It was delayed so it could release on the switch

You don’t know that

Just a reminder to stfu with your rationalizations, we don’t wanna hear it

What bothers me is at this point they've had the same amount of time between BOTW and BOTW 2 that they had between SS and BOTW, so why are we going back to the same land? They can create a whole big world for BOTW, but BOTW 2 is BOTW DLC plus sky islands? Let's just say I'm worried.
