ZBomber Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 1..... I just picked up my copy of Wind Waker. It says its a tration to wear the green clothes, honoring the Hero of Time (OoT) Anyway, does this mean the charector we play is not Link? Because he gets those clothes aa a gift. I always thought they were the same Link, but I guess not.... 2...... BTW, Great game. Post your feedback here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Rhett Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 No, they aren't the exact same person. They are different Links from different times from how I understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topshot Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Well, from my understanding, both the old Link and the new Link are one and the same, he's just got different clothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jed Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 I just got my copy today too. I take it that this Link is the same as the other one, but since he's the Hero of Time, he travels through time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topshot Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 Yes, but the story is different. This time, I don't think he's going to travel through time. He's going to travel by raft! It could be both though. I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTeddyPaul Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 From what I have understood by the makers of the game Link is a representation of a hero. Ganon/Ganondorf is the representation of evil. Same story different actors type thing. Instead of creating a whole new character each time they just create a new level. My friend got his today but since I have my hockey game and he has his Lakers game he is coming over tomorrow to play. Cannot wait. In short the Links are not the same people.

git_sum_stuka Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 it's pretty stupid how enemies turn into purple clouds when they're killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightsaberboy Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 i dont htink it's the same link. i believe that "link" is just used to be a personification of good and purity. It doesnt need to be one specific character..... riight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 Wind Waker is set 100years after Ocarina of Time. Hyrule has been flooded (hence the islands and ocean etc) and Link from Ocarina of Time is a legendary hero of myth. The Link in Wind Waker is a descendent of Link from OoT... and of course I know something you don't know... well it's pretty obvious who the last boss will be eheheh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBomber Posted March 27, 2003 Author Share Posted March 27, 2003 Ah, found the exact article form NP. Ill quote it: Q: In the Begging of the Wind Waker, we learn that Link is the Hero of Time. How many Links are there [in overall Zelda timeline?] A: In our opinion, every Zelda game features a different Link. A new hero named Link always rises to fight evil.

Boba Rhett Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 All except one. He changed his name to Lance and went on to become a drapery expert known throughout the lands for his amazing color coordination skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTeddyPaul Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 Just played about 3 hours worth. Pretty cool. The graphics grow on you BUT I need to kill something. I played three hours and killed like 3 things and 332 bushes, 184 pots, and 37 flowers. I had to hide from all the enemies. Sucked the big one. I happen to like the enemies disappearing into a purple cloud. Pretty progressive game so far. It is also a lot harder than all the other games with the similar name and for that I am appreciative.

Boba Rhett Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I only have a few complaints about what I've seen so far. 1. The way Z targetting is set up it sometimes causes problems when fighting multiple enemies. For me anyways. 2. On most things the cel shading looks great but on some things it seems to make it look extremely dated. 3. Some of the songs sound exactly like midis.

acdcfanbill Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 i for one, cant get enough of the music, or sailing the sea for that matter, the storms almost make me cry its so great. 15/10 from me! maybe the best Zelda game ive played IMHO, so much to explore, the adventure part is huge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know but what can ya do... sure a lot of console midi's do sound pretty kewl despite the fact that they are just enhanced midi's... but who's gonna pay a full on orchestra to do the music? lol...

Boba Rhett Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I shouldn't complain because it would have cost them money? Boo ****ing hoo. Other games do it. Surely they could have done it for an extremely high profile game such as Zelda. There are no excuses for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBomber Posted March 28, 2003 Author Share Posted March 28, 2003 Lynk, they had orchestra music for alot of other Zelda Games. i hate the enemy music. It doesn't give you a feeling your fighting an enemy, unlike Oot, Which had great music when an enemy was around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
