I hope it will be released on Wii U. I don't think my 3DS will run the game very well, but I want to play as Marin! Geez, Nintendo, why are you giving me all of these dilemmas!

Ravio isn't Link and the page says there's two characters

Yuga is a shoo-in and the only other character I can think of who they might possibly use is Irene, which I wouldn't be against, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be Ravio

Marin did have a hidden side where she'd scream at you to kill the cuccos if you attacked them enough. I could see her wanting to go on secret murder sprees to satiate her hidden dark side.

I'm really hoping that the WiiU version will have access to all the DLC that the 3DS version will get. I keep reading some sources that say you need Legends to unlock the same stuff on the WiiU and I really hope that's not the case because that'd be pretty dumb. I'm not wasting money on another version of Hyrule Warriors when I already have a superior version on the WiiU that I'm more guaranteed to play more of.

There's also the fact that the game is fairly recent, so I doubt they'd spoil the ending like that. If they include Ravio, he'll be in his Merchant outfit.

Sure, but that doesn't mean it was a given that Ravio would be Link's counterpart. There's still the possibility that Link's counterpart would actually be another character or just never show up in the game before his first appearance.

That's pretty neat, but it doesn't really change what I said. Of course he would show up, but there was no guarantee he would be Ravio.

Just wanted to step in and say that I'm growing to love the LoZ series. :maya: Currently I'm playing through the original and Majora's Mask, though I've also seen a playthrough of Skyward Sword. I also grew up helping my uncle get through playing Twilight Princess. Definitely like what I've been seeing.

Sorry, but if it's a choice between smashing enemies away with a giant beetle or defeating them through the power of song, I'm picking Agitha over Marin any day. At least Agitha was interesting and funny as a character, compared to Marin who sang. And did nothing else.

And raises horses and cows? Contributes to the economy of Hyrule. Supports her single father, teaches Link a song and horseriding and gives him a horse which ultimately are skills that help him save the kingdom. Compared to optional sidequest girl she's far better in my book.

Were they ever stated to officially be in a relationship? I do not recall anything, except going to a beach and watching the waves. (Which is not a date, in my book) But seriously, she served no purpose. Well, okay, she had one: emotional tug. We were supposed to care for her... despite her barely ever (necessarily) interacting with us in the game. She gave us the song of the windfish onto the ocarina, but that was pretty much it.

Well, Marin WAS heavily based on Malon... or... it was the other way around and Malon's design was heavily based around Marin...

Post subject:  Re: The Legend of Zelda series

The game from what I remember basically implied that they liked each other. They never really entered a relationship, but the whole sidequest with her is implied that it's a date between Link and her.

As for Marin, the game actually says that she looks like Princess Zelda. Ocarina of Time came out later, and Malon and Talon's designs are heavily inspired from Marin and Tarin's in Link's Awakening. Basically, Malon looks like Marin, who supposedly looks like Zelda, so according to the game logic, Malon should look like Zelda too.

Tarin's design I believe is also inspired by Mario. Hence the whole turning into a raccoon bit. And in OoT, Talon and Ingo's designs are an obvious reference to Mario and Luigi, hence Talon's red and blue color scheme and Ingo's green and blue, as well as their mustaches and body shapes. Talon and Malon even wear little Bowser looking medallions.

Zelda noob here. Can somebody explain these two things from Ocarina of Time:

The Song of Storms situation, and...

How the Sacred Realm works. Is it a timeless place? What is the reason for why Link can't just put the Master Sword back and continue his life as a child?

As you can see in my recent Grind Gear As Gamer post, it's more in line of "I barely interact with her, why should I care so much?" Being helpful is certainly, well, helpful. But it doesn't change the fact that I know nothing about her or have been given a good reason to care.

Also, I read that Marin's design was based on Zelda... which may have worked in the limited sprites (or was done because of limited sprites), but that kind of went away after a bit.

Former: Stable Time Loop.

Latter: ...gameplay reason. Seriously, there is NO reason why Link COULDN'T put the sword back and just leave it alone. Ganny couldn't touch the goddamn thing, anyway, which would have prevented him getting the Power Triforce piece.

Welp, my guess is because Link HAS to have the sense of duty to save the world once he sees the danger. Hence why he skips his childhood years and goes straight into adulthood. The world is in danger and he feels the need to save it. Or in other words, because that's how the game designers made it. :p

And technically, at the end of OoT, Link does put the Master Sword back into the pedestal and continue his life as a child. This then goes to lead into Majora's Mask and a whole bunch of really asinine and convoluted timeline/parallel timeline stuff that I prefer not to talk about.

I'm positive I explained this in another post but I can't find it atm so

Link can't just put the sword back because taking/removing the sword sends Link EXACTLY SEVEN YEARS IN TIME. Meaning the minute Link opens the gate to the Sacred Realm, it's too late; he can't go far enough back in time to undo what he did.

Well, if he knows what will happen upon pulling the sword out - he's locked away for 7 years; Ganny gets the Power Triforce - he could put the sword back and just spent those 7 years training, instead of sleeping in the Sages' Chamber where Rauru is busy watching this underage boy become semi-legal.

Which makes no sense, because NPCs talk about the thing that happened seconds before he pulled the sword out. Even if you've wandered around the past for ages and helped everyone, they still talk about "ZomG, WTF was that with Ganondorf and Princess Zelda?".

See, this is why putting time travel into a game generally doesn't work, unless you make sure you close the loopholes.

Maybe once the Master Sword was removed, the Sacred Realm was permanently unsealed? Blame shoddy craftsmanship.
You could also claim multiverse theory and that every time Link returns to the past, he's creating a parallel universe, but that brings in to question whether any of this really matters.
Or... it's a fifth generation video game world where pots re-materialize if Link walks out of a room and immediately reenters; Anthropic Principle and all.

And that has pretty much explained my point on why the timelines do not matter a single thing to the entire game's franchise.

If it was a multiverse, I'd be wondering why there is no occasion of, say, the multiverse parts segregating into each other and then an army of Links have to fight an army of Gannys. You know, teaming up and all, like in Power Rangers.
