A Link Between Worlds Feels More Like a Remake Than a Sequel

GenGAME writes: "Frankly, I don’t think it’s so bad that A Link Between Worlds feels so much like a remake. I’ve expressed in the past that I’d prefer to see new content instead of a totally remade Hyrule, but the game does enough to update the classic Zelda conventions that I can forgive that as long as it turns out to be a well-done A Link to the Past reboot.

"And trust me, there are plenty of refinements to the old A Link to the Past look and feel, and they all work to make that presentation more relevant to today’s gamers."

Error in the title of this article. . . Author means; "The > DEMO < to A Link Between Worlds Feels More Like a Remake Than a Sequel"

The way the title is now makes it seem like hes'e already played through more than half of the adventure.

Article got's some neat stuff though.

legendoflex4346d ago

If Nintendo hasn't shown stuff that doesn't feel like a remake, I can only assume it's not there... for now.

Xof4345d ago

...Okay?

It seems like a meaningless distinction. We know the game is more or less a 1:1 re-creation of the game world of ALttP. They've been very open about that from the begining. It's the superior base gameplay, new dungeon content, and new gameplay mechanics that matter most.

no yea cool piece . . . but u forgot to use the word >demo< in title of articLe .

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds - Classic Zelda turns 10

The Nintendo 3DS' The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is now 10 years old, yet remains a remarkable experience.

kythlyn541d ago

Calling this classic feels so weird to me. It's still the newest game in the old style... hope they make another one.

FinalFantasyFanatic540d ago

I would love a remake of Link to the Past, one in a similar vain to Link's Awakening.

Neonridr541d ago

it was an awesome game and utilized the 3D very well on the 3DS. A Link to the Past is one of my favorite Zelda games, so this one being a true sequel to that title really hit home with me.

franwex541d ago

I bought this very long ago, and it’s still in my backlog!

I am a huge Zelda fan and love them all, but for me Ocarina Of Time is the greatest and my second all time favourite game after Final Fantasy VII.

LoveSpuds1003d ago (Edited 1003d ago )

You sir, have good taste in games :)

I also love all of the Zelda games but I adore Windwaker (Specifically the HD version on WiiU) most of all. It is a close run thing with Breath of the Wild though.

Special mention to Cadence of Hyrule too, what an awesome spin off title that was!

GaboonViper1002d ago

Cheers Spuds, yep i love Windwaker too, beautiful artstyle, and i loved sailing and finding all the secrets out there.

blackbeld1002d ago

Agreed. For me top 3 of all time is.

1. ocarina of time
2. Final fantasy Vll
3. MGS1

GaboonViper1002d ago

Brilliant top 3, would love a MGS1 remake that has been rumoured.

LoveSpuds1002d ago

Yup, hard to argue with that top 3 squire, some quality games right there!

-Foxtrot1003d ago

Oh gee can't imagine what Number 1 is

....

A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker etc is better than Breath of the Wild.

lockedongamer11003d ago

I respectfully disagree, but they're all great games.

porkChop1003d ago

I think it really depends on what you're looking for. If you want a traditional Zelda game then OoT or WW would be better to you. But if you want a Zelda game that really leans into adventure and exploration, and if you want intelligent systems/logic, BotW would be the better game.

I enjoy both. I understand why some people aren't fond of it but for me it was a breath of fresh air that I really needed. I'd become so burnt out on unimaginative games and BotW sort of made me appreciate games again, as weird as that may sound.

godofboobees1002d ago

Those are not traditional Zelda games

Crows901002d ago

Right...so let's pretend ocarina of time didnt have exploration, secret dungeons and other secrets. Complex boss mechanics and exploration rewards. At least a traditional Zelda has dungeons.

porkChop1002d ago

What point are you attempting to make? At no point did I say that OoT didn't have any of that. However, the level of exploration and sense of adventure are vastly different between OoT and BotW.

Brazz1003d ago

Breath of the Wild is overrated as shot, Wind waker is much better.

P_Bomb1003d ago

I’m a Link to the Past guy.

MadLad1003d ago

Majora's Mask still holds as my favorite to this day, despite being the black sheep of the series.

pietro12121003d ago

I love them all, but Wind Walker, Link to the Past and Minish Cap are my favorites

John_McClane1002d ago

Link to the Past was so, so good! Those chickens though! 🤣
