EA's been weirdly quiet abt promoting it though so it's possible it's not going to meet expectations. Or EA is just not willing to go to bat for a singleplayer game that doesn't have a ton of games-as-a-service stuff attached. We'll know soon enough I guess!

Some contend that all of this is really for the new kids and we longtime Zelda players (the actual fan base) just have to suffer along like patient older brothers and sisters. If only anyone could convince me that the tangled conventions that define Zelda were also approached with new players in mind. Zelda pretty clearly wants to have it both ways, but it’s hard to imagine either veterans or novices being satisfied with, say, Skyward Sword. Every Zelda has to be someone’s first, but I can’t help pity the player who thinks this is what the legend was all about.

Actually, we needn’t speculate on what the gods of Zelda had in mind when designing the difficulty. Eiji Aonuma, director of Zelda since Ocarina, spoke to Game Informer about this directly:


“I never actually finished [the original Legend of Zelda]…I almost feel like there’s still no game more difficult than it. Every time I try to play it I end up getting ‘Game Over’ a few too many times and giving up partway through. Certainly after playing the original Zelda for the first time, I didn’t ever think that I wanted to make a game like that.”


Congratulations, Mr. Aonuma – you never have. Instead, you’ve taken the teeth out of a hardcore series. There’s no real danger now, no risk, nothing to lose. You’ve redefined game designers as the ultimate helicopter parents.

Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens has 81/6.8 on Metacritic. Almost all of the mixed and negative reviews are from Johnny-come-latelys giving it negative reviews in retrospect only after the circlejerk has died down.

Right now there are a lot of Rey body pillow owners out there just happy there's a real Star Wars game. If you want reliable reviews, you'll have to wait. Unless you are also a Rey body pillow owner, in which case you'll like it whether it's a good game or not, so don't sweat it.

I mean, watch the whole video because it's amazing. But also start at 25:05 just for the Skyward Sword bits. As someone who got into damn arguments with people about Skyward Sword, watching this was cathartic at the time. Of course now it's the consensus that Skyward Sword was a terrible game.
