LOL
Yeah I saw this last night........I think they're joking though.

Perhaps they're saying that to try to cause speculation to hype up the game.

Which would pretty much be what fingersman just said.

The 'darkest' Zelda game I've seen was Majora's Mask

DimHalo · 12-16-2004, 10:46 AM

It sure was hard to see a lot of stuff in that game

Right, lets not have an interesting storyline. Just get Link to run around and eventually kill Ganon again, that always works.

What? IGN wants Nintendo to actually do something new and *shudder* CREATIVE with their franchises instead of just spitting out the same tired plot over and over again???

THE HORROR!! KILL THOSE DIRTY FILTHY BASTARDS!!!

*straps dynamite to his chest and runs towards San Fran*

Maybe it's just me, but when a series is named after a character, you'd think they should at least make a mention in them. And killing her off would pretty much make that impossible for future Zelda games. I mean seriously. Unless they want to make an "Adventures of Link" series, I don't see why Zelda should be left out. And while they probably meant some of what they said, can you honestly look at the posts before you and not see a general sense of sarcasm?

Do you have any point to your life other than ridiculing democrats and Nintendo fans? I'm starting think not.

Yeah, doing something new with the series would be great. But killing off Zelda? That wouldn't do anything positive for the series. Unless her death wasn't permanent. Maybe Link would have to go find the pieces of a Staff of Resurrection (+10 since the Zelda series could use to be more like D&D

).

I don't know about you guys, but I kinda stopped playing Zelda games for Storyline a long time ago. Action, adventure, and way too easy puzzles are great. Not to mention the Fetch Quests.

By the way does anyone remember the fetch quest from hell? *Cough* Windwaker.

If they ever do anything like that again I will so stop playing Zelda games.

I agree.

The Zelda series is not tired or in need of a re-do.

Yes. And people hated Majora's because it was so different. In fact, it's my favourite because of that. Zelda herself is only mentioned once or twice. Speaking of which, the Oracle games weren't about Zelda either (unless you played through both and linked up.) Link's Awakening was different, as well. These tried something different. Totally new dimensions or a totally new island, or a different quest such as in Link's Adventure. Minish Cap looks to be different in this way, too. Heck, even Wind Waker tried something different with the Waterworld approach.

The only standard games we've seen which focus solely on killing Ganon and saving Zelda ( and/or world) are the Legend of Zelda, A Link to the Past, Four Swords Adventure, and Ocarina of Time. Everything else has been shaken up a lot, story-line wise. I trust the new director won't be spouting in death into the storyline any time soon.

My prediction? It won't focus on Zelda at all. I'd like to see this game turn out like Majora's Mask, actually. IGN will be confuddled.
