>>775>>What's your favorite Zelda game and why?I'm fairly split between Ocarina with its stellar pacing and intuitive controls by taking a page from Mario 64 and Wind Waker, with its polished controls and great dungeons. For all the experimentation the series has taken so far even since the second NES game, I want to see a Zelda game with Wind Waker's controls, Ocarina's pacing and cast of characters, Majora's storytelling, and an aesthetic somewhat like Twilight Princess', but with a better commitment between the realistic
OR the stylized, and not the disappointing compromise that resulted.
An antagonist with some good depth and not just some puppet for the Big G would work nicely, too. He's been in every one of the mainline games except for Majora's Mask and Zelda 2, he's a mustache twirler, and using him is getting really tired out at this point. That's definitely one place where the powers that be need to try something new with the upcoming Wii U entry.
If they're going to try weird experiments with controls, I'd also appreciate some kind of alternative. While I might like the controls more than others or vice versa, it'd be neat to make the familiar an option for somewhat polarizing creative decisions like Wii Motion Plus' extensive use in Skyward Sword, which bothered me not just in the way it turned out, but also by the inability of most fans to hold Nintendo to any level of accountability for pushing a failed experiment in game controls.
>>Who's your favorite character and why?Midna was the shining light in the mediocrity of Twilight Princess and was easily one of the most interesting characters in the Zelda series for a long time. Only thing I didn't like is that every aspect of her, in the writing, animation, and voice is that it made everything else there look even worse. She had a reason to be with Link, and it wasn't her sole calling.
