Looks cool, when was the last time Zelda was a playable character in a mainline Zelda game?

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 3 points 2 weeks ago

So Mario 64, but Zelda.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I see no issues with this.

[–] kitnaht@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

It's not a complaint, honestly. :)

[–] Uruanna@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

You could argue it's more like Sekiro but Zelda. Or like Candy Crush but Zelda.

In what ways is it like Super Mario 64?

[–] kitnaht@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The, going from place to place and jumping in a portal bit. The platformer nature of a lot of the levels they've showed.

[–] WR5@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

To me it does not seem very similar to a 3D platformer, but more akin to the GBA top down Zelda games. The addition of what looks like a standard jump is pretty reminiscent of the jump mechanic item you can unlock in those games, keeping the platforming pretty basic. The copy/paste ability they are showing off with the wand looks really intriguing, but from what I can tell that seems to be the only big departure from something like Link's Awakening. Still looks interesting to me, and cool to see the ability to play as Zelda!
