I Admit (celda factor reviewed)

DELICIOUS POISON · 05-27-2003, 11:28 PM

I admit that I may have judged windwaker a little harshly in my criticisms of its style...
but I have my qualms. Link looks like a football on top of a jellybean with a clipart face drawn on it..
I still dislike the art STYLE. I have nothing against cell shading, but I wish someone could have put more time into the representations..
Some of the texturing seemed rushed.
Also, too much platforming for a Zelda game, I think. They go from barely hopping over small holes to being shot into the air, and the like.. eh.

The fighting system, however, was extremely well executed. I enjoy stealing from monsters with the grappling hook, as well. The villagers also have much more character than in OoT. The dungeons seem more thought out than Oot, but there aren't nearly as many.

I'm much more of a fan of LA and LttP than I am of the 3 dimensional Zelda games, but I like WW more than any 3d Zelda to date.

I personally enjoy Link's looks, especially his facial expressions.

It's not the Cel shading that wrecks it. It's the child-like way they use it.

^ It's the fact that it doesn't wreck it which some people have yet to realize.
