Should Link Speak in The Legend of Zelda?

Link has always been a silent protagonist (except for those oh-so-great Zelda CD-I games), even now that Breath of the Wild has voice acting to some degree. If you asked me a couple of years ago if Link should speak/ or have a voice, I would have said no. But now I’m not so sure.

He doesn't need to. But if he's made to speak it's all good too.

Last time someone had the bright idea to make him talk, we got this abomination : https://www.youtube.com/wat...
So no.

Knightofelemia1588d ago

Besides the cartoon the shitty CDI games and the annoying fairy in Ocarina of Time if Nintendo wanted Link and Zelda to talk they would have done it by now. Nintendo is doing something right sticking to the same routine of them not talking and the games are still selling well.

Everyone but Link talks in BOTW.

The 7 Best Selling Switch Games of All Time

The Nintendo Switch has been an undeniable success for Nintendo, but which games make the best selling chart for the console?

GotGame81894d ago

Animal crossing came out the week the entire world shutdown. Yeah I bought it.

kevco3394d ago

Agreed. I think a lot of the AC: H sales have to do with early lockdown players!

I mean, I would've played it anyway. But I guess there's a lot of people who got into it because of the hype and their new found free time!

DivineHand12594d ago

Nintendo made out like bandits with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's the same game that was on the WiiU except they added 2 item boxes like in double dash.

kevco3394d ago

It's the Capcom method:

1. Add a new word to the end of the title and features that should've been expected first time around.
2. Charge full price for it.
3. Profit.

Honestly I really changed my mind on Fi with the remaster because they didn't make her interrupt your gameplay every 5 seconds, that drastically changed my views on her

Inverno101d ago

Technically she's in ToTK but obviously can't take any other form than the sword she was made into. Also the companion feature has been done plenty of times in Zelda, I don't think it'll add anything new. If anything should be brought back it should be the Minish.

Directionless Modern Zelda Should Return to its 3D Roots

Matt from We Game Daily writes "The Legend of Zelda series has gone in a different direction. One which, try as I have, I just can’t get on board with. Here is why I think Zelda should return to its 3D roots."

Amen! A good, tight, Zelda game with a focus on dungeons and puzzles. Let people have the new style Zelda if you gotta, but let us have the OoT style games too. That's not without precedent either, the handheld 2D Zelda's in the style of A Link to the Past etc have coexisted alongside the 3D Zelda's before

FinalFantasyFanatic132d ago

As much as I like BoTW, TotK, I need my traditional Zelda games as well, I could not endlessly play the open world Zelda games, plus it's harder to keep those fresher than the traditional games.

Eidolon132d ago (Edited 132d ago )

BotW was just as fresh to the franchise as OoT was. TokT was great but the next LoZ would have to move from that formula to be fresh again. There's only so much they can do with the hardware. I think they focused too much on making the world big instead impactful. I felt the world was sort of empty and repetitive in TotK, sure there was a lot to do but no more difference a Ubisoft game..

anast132d ago

I wouldn't worry too much. Nintendo knows what they are doing.

Ristul132d ago

Wind Waker had a perfect balance of open world and a cool, well hand-crafted design. Maybe try to keep the open world but put in effort to make more memorable story driven quests and locations.
