The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has reportedly leaked, ten days ahead of its official release date.
I really don't get the talk around spoilers in Zelda, what could you even spoil in BoTW?
Having looked into things… all the cool shit the game has that should’ve been advertised.
Looks like I've been playing the wrong Zelda games, there was hardly any history in BoTW. I can't think how it's even possible to spoil BoTW.
It is truly mindboggling that Nintendo biggest game of the year leaked, and already runs in emulators.
The price they pay for having ridiculously underpopulated hardware. These emulators don't even require powerful GPUs, just a somewhat decent CPU and a passable GPU will get you to similar performance to what you get on the Switch or better.
What I find most impressive is how these emulators are so mature that a new game pretty much just works. Based on reddit comments it seems the problems people are encountering are some bugged textures and issues with Vsync, that was before any fix was made for the game.
What I can say...
For example Ganon... you can see how much all these years the magic he used to ressurseration started to corromp his inner self and just the dark/beast side is dominant now... so he doesn't have dialogues... the own fact it is Ganon the boss and not Ganondorf already is a BIG spoiler in Zelda games.
Link is a reincarnation that has basically no memory from the events of 1000 years ago.... here is better to give you a hint the story works better if you recover all memorys in order to understand past events that lead it to actual events... as it is a Open World where everything is opitional you can miss the story memories (all of them).
Zelda it is basically the main character here... you follow her struggle, her pain, her frustration, her resolve.... and it is magical how she says at the end "Do you remember me?" because depending of how you played the game your Link don't remember her at all so it is up to the player think if the Link he played remembered her or not.
Hyrule being Hyrule and not the New Hyrule is nother big spoilers in the game and mean that BotW doesn't follow the events after Ocarina of Time Adult Link timeline.

But again... you need to have played previous games to have better undestanding of the story after all it is a sequel

I can't even pretend I care about any of that and recovering the memories was one of the best parts of BoTW but there was hardly any story there.
I'm not a big Zelda fan so my reference is BoTW and bits of multiple games. I thought that Zelda was like Final Fantasy where in most cases the story is not connected.
This game to me is going to be all about how good they can make the gameplay.
Been playing some hours, game seems nice, but these graphics on 2023 arent for me sorry
That is fine.
BTW all Zelda are connected in a timeline.
Ocarina of Time for obvious reason (being the first time you beat the bad guy and focused in time powers) creates differents times paradox at the end and so there are games in both time lines created by Ocarina of Time.
How is the gameplay? I was not convinced by the trailers but I really liked BoTW.
