The next zelda will probably be in first person

And why would it do this?

Zelda 1st person...... That just sounds stupid.... there arent many ranged weapons in zelda.... Hookshot... Bow and Arrow.... thats it. zelda in first person doesnt sound likely

I read online somewhere that Miyamoto originally wanted OOT in 1st person. He said Zelda will change. It will probably go 1st person (esp because M+ was added)spectravoid

He was already asked and he said that such a dramatic change wont happen. He threw the FP idea to the Zelda team and they refused lol. His idea was implemented in the Metroid Prime series instead

but if link isn't the person you are controlling in the next one. going first person would work

if it was fallout 3 style, where you can switch from over the shoulder 3rd person and 1st person, with Wii motion plus, then i'd be okay with that, so long as you still have Z-lock on targeting when in 3rd person mode

who knows guys it could work? if metroid could work zelda could work, all of you saying you wouldn't buy a FP zelda must remember the crow some diehard metroid fans ate after they hated on prime for so long, then played it and saw it captured the spirit of the original metroid games, almost improving upon it.

it would fail...

plus we already have a FPA, and it's Metroid. The only difference between the two is one would be futuristic, and the other would be more old world themed.

There are too many things that would be lost doing a first person Zelda.

Sure Metroid worked well in first person, but also a lot was left behind. First person Zelda?...no thanks.

but zelda can already be put into first person, linkk just can't walk when in it

like i said if it was like oblivion or fallout 3, where link can switch between first and third person, and he could move in first and use wii motion plus, but the game doesn't force you to use first person if you don't want to, (once again like oblivion) then what really would change? nothing. except link could walk in first person mode

what is so mind boggling about this?

there's nothing mind boggling about it to me, I just hope it never happens. It's been part of every game you actually see LINK during the adventure...not just his arms and weapons.

I personally think it's terrbible that the so called GREAT MYAMOTO would even consider this in the first place. SHIGGY it's time to retire!!!! You had a good run, but it's time to let newer, younger, more attuned minds at Nintendo take the games to new places.

seriously, besides how would it work while fighting and controlling the camera at the same time?

I'm sure it did, but Zelda isn't Elder Scrolls.

i wouldnt mind it and neither would any of you if it works amazingly well, and i think nintendo can do it

so if they are doing it then hey im all for it

people were all pissy when they heard metriod prime would be first person and now its one of the most praised games out there

How can it be in 1st person? It would be like having a spider-man game in 1st person unless the only weapons were bow and arrow and throwing knives.GamerTron0

Not all first person games have to be shooters...

OOT had its FPS moments. Like when u used the hook shot or arrows. come on doesn't anyone remember. I know its not completely FP but it had some FP moments. same with MM and WW. Only Zelda game with no FP was TP.painguy1

erm... oh yea TP had the wierd almost over the shoulder thing going on

Yeah that "weird" over the shoulder thing.. Like Gears of War and Resident Evil 4. /end sarcasm

From my personal perspective, I thought oblivion was lousy, the first person was uninteresting and contrary to what people are professing, the third person view didn't feel right. So, you were forced to stay in first person.

Now, Link typically has more movement, and first person wouldn't be ideal: multiple hookshots, grappling hooks, puzzle elements that require a full view of the field (block moving for example).

Now, if the option came that you could go from a fluid 1st person to a third person, chances are most Zelda fans would stay in third person. So, trying to make a game in first person would be a full committment, and we'd have no alternative to the fp view.

The Zelda design change I'd assume won't be a view, but rather how the game progresses, the story, and of course production values. Anything drastic would have to be where the adventure took place, or Link can actually jump via button (ala Zelda 2) etc.

The next zelda will probably be in first person spectravoid

The Legend of ZelDooM ?

No thanks! :shock:

Who was the genius who suggested this. only a complete and uter idiot would play this game in first peson
