The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Beyond the Plateau Gameplay - Nintendo E3 2016 

+Based Embryo Wait for the NX for the bundle!

Without the heavy RPG elements and the absence of the Green tunic but i totally agree with you. The exploration is amazing especially in forests etc love it

As I watched all of these reveals I couldn't help but remember that story we've all heard by now of how this game started because of exploring caves and fields in real life. It's a dream come true to see it reach this point!

Now all nintendo needs in this game is the regular game and the E3 ver. where we have no towns or NPC's.

bro, worded BEAUTIFULY

and "come on" Link says it in the Wind Waker when you ask one of the statues to follow you in tower of the gods.

+Matthew Osborne yup XD

You have a point. When a game series has stuck to a formula, sometimes that can be a good thing, but eventually, the gimmick wears out its welcome. When it does, it's time for something innovative, something that breaks the formula but still feels like a Zelda game; Wide-Open sandbox is just perfect and the graphics gorgeous, making me think back to when I tried Skyward Sword for the first time. I've waited a while to see voice acting finally reach the Zelda series, and my secret wish has been answered: Finally, a good reason to actually bother with a Wii-U!

this will be my launch title for the nx!

Or "Shpäääh!" (That fish in WW)

I've played the Elder Scrolls games since Morrowind, and I have 1000+ hours in Skyrim, but TES is pretty different from this. They have a lot of similarities, but in reality the only thing that really reminds me of Skyrim is the scenery. Mountains, mountains everywhere.

It has a lotr vibe with the zelda vibe going. Seriously link in this game makes me feel like borormir, aragorn, legolas, and link all at the same time

Its like Shadow of the Colossus without the colossi, but with civilization.

It's more like Witcher with the verticality of Assassin's Creed and The Batman Arkham games.

It's basically Xenoblade.

:)

+Steve Gregoire agreed

Saying 2% means the game is 50 times bigger than this area. Its definitely more than 2%.

the game is 50x bigger, the map is 360 killometers big, in comparison, witcher 3 was 136 kilometers, zelda is also aound 4 or 5 times bigger than fallout 4

where did you get this info from?

+David Doug This game is going to be revolutionary. It's so big and beautiful, it's amazing to us like how Ocarina of Time was amazing to the 90s kids.

This game is going to be amazing, but I'm going to have to agree with David here. NES Zelda was a revolutionary concept. Ocarina was a revolution into fully 3D that Nintendo was on the cutting edge of. But this vast open world that you can go anywhere and do anything with... Nintendo is late to the party. This is just Zelda catching up with the likes of Skyrim. It's already been done, and Nintendo is a bit late. That is not to say that it won't be amazing, but it's too late to be considered revolutionary. Maybe revolutionary for the Zelda franchise, but not in general. Still really anticipating it though! :D

+David Doug It's revolutionary because it's taking everything that has become conventional and turning it on its head. Instead of leading with story and following with gameplay, it's using gameplay to immerse players, while letting the story be a mystery that players must uncover themselves, providing further immersion via exploration. It's removing hand-holding and static progression by going back to the series' roots of finding your own way. And perhaps one of the biggest changes is combat and weapons. Combat looks fluid and organic, and you're no longer limited to sword A, sword B, and the Master Sword.

+metaltom2003 Yeah, it's revolutionary just FOR ZELDA, not all games in general.

David Doug I meant a revolution into the franchise. Ocarina didn't change anything too

Again

Chase Helmer Link was able to jump in Zelda 2

In a 3D Zelda game, especially.

Zelda 2.

In a 3D Zelda game

True

still waiting

I keep coming back to these videos too. I love feeling the hype and the initial Zelda impressions of people again and I keep noticing minor details in the footage that got changed and polished right up until release. BotW and TotK are two of the most enjoyable, most polished games I ever played in my life.

same here!!

You are not alone.

Don't we all

+Hambs23 really omg I'm getting excited!!!! I thought it was March though

Paris80 Is a legend It's probably a placeholder. I don't think we had an official release date yet. That's the most late it can launch, that's what I think it means.

+Caketake yeah

Definitely the most ambitious

I completely 100% agree with you. Nintendo hard work are really paid off.

it almost makes up for the lack of games at E3

+saifuddin jamil arent you worried because of the towns

You already forgot about X?

TheNorth15 I forgot Xenoblade existed. Doesn't help that I'm not much of a fan of it. Still, in terms of just Nintendo games, this is the best looking on the Wii U (I am fully aware that the Xenoblade devs are a second party company of Nintendo).

Charles .Firebird97 Don't forget Smash. That was the primary Wii U seller up until now.

Legoguy9875 Bayonetta looked amazing as well. Splatoon looked pretty damn good with it's reflective ink, and both Mario Kart 8 and Super Mario 3D World looked absolutely gorgeous.

dude the textures of the terrain are very low res looking. The art style is very nice looking, but this in no way shows good graphical fidelity from a console. This game would look way better on the other consoles. Way better. Hopefully NX shows us how it can really look.

Es abril de 2085 salío la Nintendo nes, y hay un juego que se llama zelda. Quien sabe que será. Saludos amigo del pasado.

unitl someone brings up the ultimate divider: politics

Ill go as far out into the desert as i can.

It has no soundtrack.

@PerseusSagittarius not true, it does have a soundtrack it's just more subtle than soundtracks from previous tloz games

the music gets pretty intense when enemies are present, especially the bigger ones

don't say that man, they may put that price tag if people is willing to pay it lol

Youre gonna have to spend more than that if you want it on nx.

+Bluetycon9 Nintendo is on a good way right now.I think NX will be a great Innovation

well I'm gonna buy it for nx anyway so yeah. But yeah I doubt it'll cost $200 for the game, probs about $100

That's AUD btw...

That'd be great.

It would kinda make sense for a game like Metriod which is also big on exploration.

Not like this though. Metriod is about exploration but it has more emphasis on the action. Unless we do some thing where Samus lost her suit and has to survive an alien planet to find it. And the dungeons will be enemy ships that have parts of her suit.

TheMike5125 I mean like big, expansive world. Also, Metroid has more emphasis on exploration. What're you talking about?

+Light Spamus I meant more so than Zelda.

When the music doesn’t play

wand of gamelon

That's not a zelda game that's an abomination

Music makes Zelda. They always have the most breathtaking and beautiful soundtracks, especially Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time. I also love A Link Between Worlds' soundtrack 😊

aparently there wont be much of a sound track like we have seen through conventional zelda games, so it seems that there wont be a hyrule field sort of track constantly through your travels but a more subtle and discreet track constantly which will fit the theme allot better

Joshua Parsons Almost like Skyrim

"When I first discovered the joy of wearing dresses, I felt liberated beyond explanation. I used that feeling of freedom to create this open world to pass on that dress-wearing greatness to the player."

I laughed way to hard at that, thank you sir.

How do you know he's not?

... something wrong with wearing dresses? I don't get the joke.

kurvos they give more ventilation.

I'm glad they posted this video explaining that there will be.

idiots are also saying that there are only 4 dungeons too.

They excluded NPCs, villages, etc. in the demos. I cannot wait to see all the quests, shops, NPC interaction, etc. in the final version.

they hating and grabbing at whatever they can wrong with no info.

Just like MGS5 ;)

one can only hope.

There were toilets in Majora's Mask and Skyward Sword. IIRC you can use the toilet in Skyward Sword.

It's the wild, hardly anyone will see, the WORLD is your toilet.

***** And elixir so spicy, you'll be able to survive in arctic conditions with no clothes whatsoever.

hopefully.... hopefully with a ghost living inside

Me!

I think in the past Zelda games, they always especially excelled when they innovated even though technically that musn't even be a good thing, but in Zelda it was always good so I see it as a good sign.

it's ok, since this Link is probably the one from Skyward Sword

he isn't the one from SS, this game takes place late in the timeline

way in the future.skyward sword was pretty much how the master sword was made from another sword. in this one the sword is rusted on the logo

Gigantic EMPTY world....not impressed with this game at all. It's 2016, and the graphics are like Playstation 2, and open world is even emptier than Skyrim was. Nintendo GG. lawl

+Red Panda nice b8

+Red Panda You should troll less obviously.

They have changed a lot in regard to gameplay but at the same time they seem to have given nods to a lot of the previous game history like the koroks and the variation of the sail cloth. I'm sure we are going to see a bunch of characters, enemies etc represented in some form from previous games.

+Red Panda go play CoD or something. let the adults talk.

A 10-minute gameplay video of TotK is coming out today at 16:00 CEST.

@Rasul is this official gameplay or a leak? If it's the latter, I've gotta avoid it like the plague

@@pls1861 Official gameplay. It should be out by now

@@rasul01 that was awesome. Thank you for letting me know it was coming out! Nintendo sure loves their stealth announcements as of late heheh

Super3dBoy Zelda and Ganon are already confirmed

But its the beauty that we haven't yet! They leave it for you to discover it yourself.

Also, the Master Sword is in the trailer so I'd say that it's confirmed.

"Ganondorf" as some might say is actually just "Ganon" hence the "Calamity - Ganon" Name

It ain't spoilers boi, it's just information from Zelda Lore in general, like that book that came out a couple of years ago: Hyrule Historia. It really isn't in any way spoilers.

fr i thought this was botw2 for a sec😭 the wait is brutal

Yyup! fixing my broken gamepad so I can boot up Windwaker HD! :D

M

👎🏻

I replay them all the time but ya i get what you are saying :D

LOL i'm actually replaying them all on my PC with the emulator and on my Wii playing skyward sword again i'm so excited for the legend of Zelda breath of the wild

I don't get it...

+Battle Cubes Aonuma is the producer of Zelda. He's sitting in the middle at 0:24

+Battle Cubes Just rearrange the letters

the rumours say that each shrine was designed by one of the devs, so all the names are going to be acronyms.

THATS TIGHT

I know, she does brutal things while talking in a cute manner.

Madchimpz Right? XD lol... The broken English makes it even better.

Yeah man!

I'd watch a Chiko Lets Play channel so hard XD

thats what im waiting for you too lol

Maybe just don't pre-order at all?

+REO Weedswagon Why not?

I've preordered this few years ago already. Won't cancel it! xD

I'm waiting to see if it's backwards compatible with wii u games. If not, I'll just go ahead and drop money on a wii. I've heard it won't be any different on NX though. I don't think it'll even have better graphics.

ill wait for the nx

wii u has a lot more to offer than just this game

+pizza4321123 Like smash, and smash, and also some smash

+TXRY Don't 4 get smash

Save up for nx instead

* K or deg C

I would imagine that it is based upon where you live. E3 is based in the United States, so the temperature value is in Fahrenheit. If you live somewhere where it is usually measured in Celsius or Kelvin, I would imagine it would show those values.

It'll probably be localized. This is the US version of the game, so F is used. There is a toggle så people can use what they prefer, regardless of region

Canadians get the US version and we use Celsius... I hope there's the option.

I hear you

+Scott Kielty BROOOO

You mean the Wind Waker prequel. Its probably before the Great Flood. And no you don't deserve a free copy, because many people thought about that too, even me. :P

+Mohan Grewal I figured it'd be a sequel because we were already given the story for what would be a prequel but you could be right. I was just so excited!

hjjyyu7 uhgh u u

no it's not! Because It makes no sense from a story perspective.

Someone get ZeldaDungeon on this ($500 he does it)

I triple dog dare you

Completionist screams in the distance

There is background music.You can hear it in the videos they showd near the end

Hopefully at certain points memorable music will just start playing in the background

The music in this game is more minimalistic than other Zelda games, Aonuma said they wanted to use piano to make it more emotional.

The music in the trailer was sick. I can't wait to hear more.

+Vox Tartarus They kinda had to keep it minimalistic since we'll spend so much time in the field that having music non-stop would end up repetitive and annoying. There will probably be more music in towns and cities

Cause he's playing

Busy eating the donuts from the meeting

RIP Bill

You win, you win all of it

She's doing a good job. I really searched for mistranslations but didnt notice any ...

I can't wait for the final version.

Are those from the Oracle games?

i mean if they have magnet ability in here like the oracle games why not?

+JustFriendly I don't know... seem kind of unnecessary don't you think?

+Disco Train They have a mere 1 percent of the game up for play and im pretty sure we havent even seen all of that 1 percent. I think unecessary has no meaning here

JustFriendly I know, but since the world in Breath of the Wild is so big, I don't think they would include Holodrum and Labrynna in it. This new Zelda game is all about breaking the conventions of Zelda, so I doubt they would include those two areas. To be honest, I would rather Nintendo include a new area in this vast world rather than provide already used content that was created for the Oracle games.

Actually Spider Man uses inter-atomic attraction in order to "stick to things", it's actually a power and not a piece of tech.

***** I don't know man, Russo Parker is much better, and beyond that Bendis Parker is even better.

a wizard did it

He got bit by a radioactive skulltula

he hasn't

It probably means the graphics. And they didn't even confirm it will come out when NX launches. They have said "Sometime in 2017".

+Kevin Chambers march

I don't think ganon is in this game. Not 100% sure tho

+A Horse It's confirmed that he's in the game.

I think he is the at the beginning of this demo

the old man* wtf

I hope he's not in there he kinda is a old hat

ThatOneKiwi even though we can't go a day without water?

They already said there will be towns and NPCs. They just removed them from the e3 demo to not spoil anything in the story.

A huge improvement from skyward sword :)

+ZyneXx I like skyward swords art style

Nintendo Universe I didn't :(. The watercolor style did not work for me at all. On top of that, I thought link looked really uncool in this artstyle. Allthough Twilight Princess didn't age that well, I still think t looked better. Same goes for Windwaker. Skyward sword kinda felt like a mix between those two. I dunno... Guess it's just a matter of taste. I thought skyward sword looked horrible. Especially compared to a lot of other games at that time. Breath of the wild at least looks like a next-gen game.

I think Breath of the Wild looks like next-gen skyward lol

All of the chests are pretty minor stuff, clothing or consumables. They'll probably have proper fanfare for permanent items.

Yeah but I like it like this rather than the waiting forever to open chests with the glow and the noise and everything else. (Yeah I've seen Sequelitis)

+Matthew H except ego was wrong as the wait is nonexistent unless you're an ADD ridden child

+MisterHeroman To be fair, it did interrupt the gameplay quite often. We don't need a 30-second cutscene everytime we open a chest. Sure it was cool at the time (when it was a new thing) but it's just unnecessary showboating at this point.

+metaltom2003 it took like 10 seconds :(

Me too. I wonder.

They can't make another open "air" (as Nintendo calls it) after this, it would just be the same map over and over again (even though they'd change the map). I think after this they will go back to how Zelda used to be. It would be like how their first game was an open world, while the rest were not so much.

@@Thesamurai1999 hmmm…

@@poorangus8584 I admit. I was wrong.
