Tears of the Kingdom amazed developers all around the world when it released, with many developers rushing to twitter to speculate on how they achieved their physics-focused sandbox. Nintendo arrived in San Francisco to explain how they achieved their goals, with new insights into their physics and audio work. Today I’m going to round up all the best bits and interesting points raised by Nintendo, and how they achieved the technical marvel that is Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.

This is what digital foundry should have investigated. They didn’t do this game justice when it came to discussing its complexity. This is so is interesting and it makes me appreciate everything about this game much more. Fantastic work coverage.

@hododod246 2 месяца назад

Df really don’t know anything about game dev. All they know count the frames and pixels

@seekingsolutions7078 2 месяца назад

@@hododod246 but they could have analyzed it way more even without the devs. They could have talked about the complexity of the 3D audio. For some reason they only talk about it sometimes. Kind of a big miss there.

That’s a little out of DF’s wheelhouse.

@dun0790 2 месяца назад

I agree but unfortunately unless its df retro or a game series over view they rarely go into true depth unfortunately usually just resolution, frame rate and input latency which i don't really care about anymore with the switch Nintendo i think has proved that all of this processing power has really went to waste on just those things the last few years and we need to go back to making systems first and worrying about how it looks later

TotK was a lot of fun and had a lot of improvements to the mechanics of BotW. Most importantly, combat was significantly improved compared to BotW because of Ultrahand and Fuse among other things. I do want the Master Sword to return as the primary unbreakable weapon in future titles but TotK's combat was very fun

@jess648 2 месяца назад

I’ve been playing it recently and it’s exactly how I feel! the more advanced monster camps and new enemy types certainly add to that feeling as well

@Alkaris Месяц назад

Using nodes for sounds and physics makes those things a lot more complex and interesting with how they interact with the world and player. Using nodes for everything seems to work out pretty well for them and fine tuning details tied to those objects and sounds.

It was interesting to see how the design evolved, I can't imagine how complex this is under the hood

@reynoldskynaston9529 2 месяца назад

While I didn’t love the direction they took Totk I can’t deny the great technical achievements they made.

@vitormoraes8320 2 месяца назад

Id like to see they refining combat for future titles and minimizing menu usage. Dedicated players have been pulling off incredible techs that even combat focused games dont have. There is plenty of potential for zelda teaching lessons in that field as well.

Hearing about Voxels is so confusing, I use Blender and Voxels are a thing in them, I don't really use it, it's often used in sculpting, adds more vertices to a mesh. In this video Voxels seems to have a different meaning.

@triforcetimes 2 месяца назад

I think they refer to voxels as a container for data - in this instance its audio data, there's a good description here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voxel

@maximoriginalcoffee7144 2 месяца назад

@@triforcetimes I think that is probably talking about 'voxel terrain'. It's interesting that the terrain in the game was a voxel terrain.

The craziest thing is that Aonuma said Ultrahand is tied to this game. So.... no more sandbox focus for future Zelda? lol Ultrahand is like the epitome of the concept. They won't abandon open world but I wonder if they will be doing a more traditional Zelda...? lol can't wait to see.

@triforcetimes 2 месяца назад

yeah it'll be interesting to see what Nintendo do in the future

@33LB 2 месяца назад

i'm confused about people asking for "traditional zelda." those games already exist. why recreate games that already exist?

@tyg-zw7nn 2 месяца назад

@@33LB hard to explain. But how do you 1-up ultrahand for a sandbox game? You like… can’t. I kinda assumed ultrahand would become a mainstay if their focus was physics based sandbox. But Aonuma shattered that expectation by straight up saying it’s not coming back. It’s going to be a dramatically different game.

@33LB 2 месяца назад

@@tyg-zw7nn the focus of legend of zelda has always simply been a sense of adventure and discovery.

@tyg-zw7nn 2 месяца назад

Yeah but that's meta (on top of, beyond) the ludos/gameplay styles they chose. And they made a heavy emphasis on "create your own solutions" with ultrahand. What you are talking about is more related to the genre/format/event/chara/world design, than the mechanics (how you interact with it all) of the game. @@33LB

what was wrong with it?

@lincolnpreuit6993 2 месяца назад

it felt like it was an afterthought slapped on last second. everything happening in memories instead of in real time wich really hurts it's potential as well, we weren’t able to get to know any of the characters or care about any of them.

@spacefacecadet 2 месяца назад

That's what they spent their time on? I would rather have a totally new, smaller game with no physics engine. And not wait 6 years.

@triforcetimes 2 месяца назад

Link's abilities were pretty cool though

@rbfndz 2 месяца назад

You can easily get your criteria with games by other developers. Zelda devs are perfectionist in game mechanics so they aren’t going to release something they are not satisfied with

@unblairable 2 месяца назад

i’d argue a big part of the reason for putting so much work into bolstering the physics engine is that future games will be able to implement it with significantly less effort, since they hammered out the vast majority of complications with this game. it makes sense if they went into it with a vision for the future, setting a foundation upon which to build the next era of games

@kamranki 2 месяца назад

I think it was time well spent on development. Also, TOTK was a pretty good game in itself. Sure BOTW did some things better (and did them first) but TOTK is no slouch either. It introduces many new concepts and ideas and implements quieta a lot of them very well.
