Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom devs explain why making Zelda’s design was “difficult”
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The developers of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom have opened up about designing Zelda for the game, which was a “difficult” challenge for the team.
We’re able to get insight from co-director Tomomi Sano and series producer Eiji Aonuma here. There were a few things that Nintendo and Grezzo needed to balance. For one thing, they couldn’t make Zelda too cute. They also couldn’t make her stand out given her fugitive status, but they also didn’t want her to look too much like a fugitive. Finally, Zelda is a princess at the end of the day, so that’s something the team also needed to keep in mind.
[Let’s Talk] Which Zelda gameplay style do you prefer?
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk | 0 comments
When you think about the type of gameplay featured in The Legend of Zelda’s mainline titles, three types should come to mind. First there’s 2D, which was obviously established at the very start and has continued into Echoes of Wisdom. Then there’s the traditional 3D, dungeon-focused games fans came to know following the launch of Ocarina of Time. Now more recently, Nintendo has put out the “open air” entries – essentially Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom – which look to be the focus going forward.
For Zelda games, which style do you prefer? Are you a purist that appreciates the 2D titles more than anything else? Perhaps you’d like to see Nintendo revisit the traditional 3D style? Or maybe you’ve only started to come on board since Breath of the Wild. No matter the case, let us know in the comments.
