Season. Pass. Zelda. Nintendo.

:lol:

They did a fine job with Mario Kart 8 DLC. I hope this works out well.

I'm annoyed, but I'm not buying it so I guess I don't really care. Game looks big enough as is and I'm not much of a completionlist anymore, especially in this onslaught of OPEN WORLD PHENOMENA!!! So I'll probably get enough mileage out of the main game. I was okay with the Amiibo stuff for Twilight Princess, since it was basically pointless and the Wolf dungeon sucked. Otherwise, a Zelda type game seems like the LAST thing that would work with season passes/DLC and the things they've talked about don't sound worth $20 at all.

Hard Mode, AKA Hero Quest mode or whatever being locked behind this is total BS too.

Incoming $5.99 Unbreakable Clubs and Swords.

If Season Passes keep being a thing and supported I wonder if we'll just see a price spike to $80 base vanilla releases sometime soon.

Deep breath... in the nose... out the mouth. The mouth is not for breathing, it's for eating. Close your eyes... imagine the sweet embrace of the sea. The warm waters flooding over you in a sense of supernatural awareness. All is well with the world. These are video games and we are letting our imaginations run in wild and irrational realms so let us bring it back to that warm embrace of the sea. Breathe... yes... You are doing so good! Have I ever told you that you are an excellent breather? If there was some sort of association for breathing it would be certain that you would be given their lifetime achievement award for breathing.

Do you see that in the distance? Right by the shore. There they are! Your friends! Your family! Your hobbies! All waiting for you with open arms. I assure you no daggers are waiting; no sludge crafted from vile hatred and greed. You are safe. Just breathe... the warm waters... the sea... all is well with the world... sea...breathe...sludge...lifetime achievement award.

I will be getting this game on the WiiU. I don't want a Switch, not even slightly interested.

I never buy DLC. Not because I have any moral qualms about it - just because I'm a cheapskate. :lol:

On the other hand, when the DLC is free, I'm all for it.

One week left till we get our hands on the next Zelda. I'm excited for the game. I saw the newest trailer, and while it was shorter than what I've seen already I got even more pumped.

There's certainly a lot of hype. How can we expect any game to live up to all this? Let's temper our expectations a bit so we can allow ourselves to be pleasantly surprised.
