Yeah the cutscene rip is too much for me haha, I just wanted to see some of the stuff rumoured (Dungeons, vast underground) to be confirmed but not all of the story.

Oh no, someone extracted all the prerendered cutscenes and posted them on 4chan.
Yeah, I'm dipping. See you all in a few weeks.

Depends on how much there is to the game. If they're doing another 120+, I still want beefy dungeons and a great story. I don't think shrines are inherently bad at all, though the similar-sounding aesthetic seems disappointing.

I think something similar. Aesthetically, I find it somewhat disappointing that they are so similar.

As for gameplay, if they add a lot more than BotW's 120 and make them more varied (I've been playing BotW for a week now and from what I've seen, there's a lot of beating a guardian and that's it, which I don't like at all), I'll be happy for their return.

Not to mention the dungeons. I hope and wish there will be dungeons. The little I've seen of one of the first caves I liked.

Moving on to something else, the encyclopedia, has its return been confirmed or denied?

I'm treading on a minefield here, but I just want to know if traditional dungeons are back. BotW style like shrines/divine beasts is bad, older style is good. On the other hand... Maybe it's better to know nothing at all and discover it myself, at the risk of being disappointed. I can't decide!

I've already been spoiled on a few things, but the damage isn't that much luckily. Anyway, time to avoid anything related to this game.

Watching this person try to play is PAINFUL. It feels like they've never played a video game before.

I'm watching for the tutorial, then I'm out.

Ya'll remember the chills from that moment when Link came out of the shrine of resurrection and the theme started to play as the logo appeared on screen?

Well, TotK's version of this far surpasses it. I am in tearssssss

Ok so, to those who haven't watched the cutscenes (most people, I would assume), you might want to avoid all form of social media, because there are some faces/expressions that will absolutely be used as profile pictures.

We know shrines are back but we aren’t sure on dungeons. The farthest someone has gotten gameplay wise is like a quarter past the tutorial area. Probably will need to wait until tomorrow for dungeon confirmation/denial

I think the most we'd get are boss and area names? Maaybe a unique item or such if they exist

We're not going to get something like structure confirmation from a datamine I'd imagine

Why the fuck did I watch the.cutscenes lmao. I hate myself.

I few thoughts, with a couple pretty major spoilers:

-this is obviously not ALL the cutscenes.

-yeah, a lot of the cutscenes are the "flashback" style, but not all! And its a little different here. Zelda has much nore agency, and since its happening in tandem with present, they seem to be a little more urgent.

-lots of dialogue and its all missing, hard to tell whats going on.

-Ancient Blonde Lady is murdered my Ganondorf right in front of Zelda.

-massive one: Zelda IS the dragon you see in the sky.

So wait, they didn't upload all the cutscenes? That's odd. Is the ending among them?

Has the "Ancient Blonde Lady" been named yet in any of those leaks?

Not that I can tell, but it seems like her and "Rauru" are the King/Queen or something of Ancient Hyrule?? At one point, Ganondorf and the Gerudo kneel before them as they sit on thrones.

I just want to know one thing, does the story content seem more fulfilling then what we got in BOTW? Like BOTW only had around 1 hour and 45 minutes of cutscenes.

Is there more story content here? Does it all look epic and big in scope?

I don’t think it’s quite the same as BotW. There’s 5 referenced, and while the Soul dungeon only has one file, that might just be due to it being a single floor. Hard to say. Regardless, we still don’t know the scope of the dungeons, and having multiple floors is a good sign.

If there’s 7 tears, and one is held by Ganondorf and one by Zelda, that would leave 5.

Of course. I mean, the one thing that disappoints me is the theme, just that. The dungeons can still be amazing and maybe I will love them regardless. It's just a first impression.

I just wanna know whether or not the dungeons are more like big, cool, explorable areas like Hyrule Castle from BotW rather than puzzle box stuff. I'm a weirdo that doesn't love dungeons, haha

these seem to be a combination between the divine beast and traditional dungeons. Of course the maps tell us very little overall
