Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom initially had fall damage, devs talk about why it was removed
Posted on 1 week ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
According to the developers of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, the game originally had fall damage. However, the team ended up changing that for the final release.
Co-director Tomomi Sano and series producer Eiji Aonuma spoke about this in a Famitsu interview. Sano pointed out how Nintendo and Grezzo wanted players to go for trial and error when it came to the Echoes, and wanted them to do so without restrictions. Aonuma also brought up something mentioned by Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto, who has spoken about a desire for players to reach the end of Zelda games. That was another factor in keeping fall damage out.
