Hope they do fix that, but I won't set my hope too high, this game seems pretty heavy.

I don’t believe it, at least not from 20 fps to stable 30 fps

I doubt it would eliminate all drops but perhaps minimize the number of areas where it occurs or the frequency at which it does in those areas. Performance and loading times in BotW did improve in subsequent patches but it’s definitely not a solid 30FPS, so I’m keeping my expectations in check.

Stream went down less than 7 minutes after I reported it, lol! I should have wrote down the name of the channel.

What the heck? Why'd you do that? Just simply don't watch.

I honestly don't understand how you would spoil a game that is so lite on story.

I heard Kratos shows up and beats the shit out of Link

 

[Ozriel]

I don't know about that but you can pick it up on 86th street in Brooklyn NY right now. Not sure if we're allowed to post pictures of things we get early but the game is really good so far.

They’ll get in trouble with Nintendo

Many thanks. I live for spoilers. The implications of what's shown has me even more excited for the story in the game. This game is gonna be great.

 

[onQ123]

Can you really spoil a Zelda game?

 

[Woopah]

Can you really spoil a Zelda game?

Like any other game. Reveal enemy/boss designs or story points or plot twists.

This isn't a movie, there's more to games than story... bosses, items, mechanics, levels, dungeons...

Speaking of which, all I want to know: real dungeons are in or no?

Spoiler: DUNGEONS SPOILERS

Ice, Wind, Fire and Water dungeons. Dont know how big they are, but they are literally named as "big" in the game files. Also Hyrule Castle, of course

Watched the first hour and yup, thats BOTW 1.5

The opening is way more impressive than the mountain one in BOTW, imo. The new location looks great due to artistic choices.

The rest is BOTW. It controls, looks, and have basically the same menus.

How Link gets only 3 hearts after becoming OP after BOTW was really obvious

Seems like it is to BOTW exactly what Ragnarok was to GOW 2018.

 

[Sakura]

Is Zelda still hot?

Spoiler: DUNGEONS SPOILERS

So the best way to avoid spoilers will be playing the game asap

Yes

 

[Bragr]

Ah, for fucks sake, I should never have entered this thread, I am pretty sure I have figured out the ending from this fucking meme.

 

[Holammer]

Do u prefer ryujinx than yuzu?

I use both and they are roughly the same these days. Perhaps a slight edge performance wise for Yuzu.
Ryujinx tracks Time Played and comes with better Amiboo support, so I used it for AC.

 

[TheKremlinBossMan]

The first two hours of this game is just Nintendo showing off. Good lord.

 

[Umbasaborne]

Ah, for fucks sake, I should never have entered this thread, I am pretty sure I have figured out the ending from this fucking meme.

Lol chill, i have no clue wtf the ending is.

 

[Captain Toad]

So... is it good?

I have a feeling one of these major outlets won't be able to help themselves and will give it an 11 out of 10.

 

[Bragr]

Lol chill, i have no clue wtf the ending is.

Ah jesus, thank god, I thought the meme was about Zelda time-traveling or dimension-traveling and fighting herself, since in the trailer there are some hints of something like that. Forget it then.

Yeah

 

[Germuso]

Well the original game has "dungeons", I Hope this Game has classic longer Dungeons.

I fear Nintendo won't be forthcoming with a precompile shaders feature.

I want to recommend all of you to avoid youtube as well. Youtube fucking algorithm send me a loads of spoilers from Elden Ring. Disable the sandbox from Google Chrome or the search fill from Firefox.

Remove Twitter stories and top hashtags.

Got it. I will be eyeing YT closely.

 

[Guilhermegrg]

Performance ain't great on the switch.
Remember korok forest on botw? Yeah kinda like that many times.

Also there's a slight lag on controls, for instance changing weapons there's a delay before actually switching the weapon.

Visually it seems they upped the polygon count and it drags down performance.

I'm only on the starting part though, maybe it's more detailed than the rest.

 

[Alex Scott]

Reviewers will ignore its performance, that's for sure.

There are firefox extensions to avoid this, make like Youtube back to the original design. There are one even that make the home page just showing the search bar, nothing more.

Great movie btw if you like thoughtful movies, even if a bit depressing. Also fantastic effects for the budget. Overall it's a quite beautiful experience.

Oh, ok. My bad. Still, youtube sucks those days.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Oh it does because my recommendation feed is probably just going to be TotK. Data collection is so prominent that any game you are interested in they have a bunch of content telling you how to prepare for or min max a game. Best to ignore those videos. You'll enjoy self discovery that much more.

 

[Silver Wattle]

The poor performance is probably due to them trying to push the graphics, terrible plan for people playing this on the switch, but awesome for those playing on an emulator.

Not getting a bunch of lag or delay but the performance is pretty bad. Not sure if there's a patch if so it's not live yet.

They doubled the map. Sky Islands were a misdirection, here's the mic drop.

There's an entire new "tower" mechanic underground to unlock the map. There's an entire BOTW worth of overworld to discover down there, including at least two of the aforementioned dungeons (Gerudo & Goron).

 

[Max_Po]

Game is probably available to download illegally quite easily... as usual.
