Some of you may remember my first-look preview of this game before it was even subtitled. --but look, see how much it's changed!! http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/wiki/index.html Look at the logo. Look at the graphics. They've virtually un-WW-ised it all. So Ninty's warning got through after all. Looks like an amusing game, I just hope it isn't a "click, wait, click, wait" MMO. Because those suck. >( EDIT: but now it looks so much like that SEGA MMO, I think they might have another battle on their hands! :lol: EDIT: found this at GameFAQs. ![]() Now we know what went through Nintendo's mind when they saw the screens! :lol: |

Didn't they just change the starring character and logo? The style is still TWW's... and still crap. |

Well the starring character is still "1000s of combinations" but the new "default" they show doesn't look like Link at all now. It still looks pretty WW-ish, but, just like Graal, I'm assuming it's just different enough to be allowed... I guess... I'm hoping FilePlanet has a beta of this like they did with the other Korean MMOs... hmmm... still looks fairly dumb, but maybe it plays just like Zelda?

From other post.![]() Looking at it, they didn't even change the logo. The only difference is the clothing. You'll notice the right image and the one above are identical except for the fact.

I like the way it looks - heh, but I'm one of those people who actually liked what the Wind Waker looked like, bobble-headed Link and all ![]() EDIT: LameBoyAdvanced - I think the reason for that is because the image Garret posted was just one that was edited by the forum users at GameFaqs. The link he posted shows some more screenshots from the game, with different characters being used. |

If you think adding a 'd' onto the end of your name is bad, you should see some of the attempts people have made trying to get my screen name right Yeah, it does look very, very Wind Waker-esque - it's not just the characters, it's the entire graphic approach. |

Yep, that's one. The 'It's like Cornelius, but not' seems to throw a lot of people

It's not really that interesting a tale... but it is long, so if you're not really that interested, it's best to skip over it ![]() A long time agao, when I was but a wee lad (about ten or eleven), I wrote a story with a character in it who was an alien pretending to be a human because he was after some kids closet (which was a warp gate to somewhere). In his disguise, he ran a video arcade under the name of 'Mr Coin-Op'. It then turned ou, that his real name was Coinilius Optimum and he contracted it to Coin-Op to act as his human name. A couple of years later, I wrote a series of short stories which were a sort of Star Trek parody, centered around a young Alkazarian Lt named Coinilus Optimum. In these stories, I also introduced other members of his family including his crazy brother Baterium Optimum, his son-from-the-future Manulius Optimum and his sister, Trish. When it came time to think up a nickname for the various forums I was on, Coinilius seemed like the perfect choice, since in a round about way Lt Optimum in the stories sort of represented me. And now you know the rest of the story ![]() Edit: Hmm, Maybe we should have a thread where people can explain the reasons for there screen names if they want to - I'd love to know the story behind 2Awsome4APossums

Who's your favorite possum?

What's with the capitalizing? Anyway, it's an odd tale... and I came up with it on my own, no inspiration except the word "possum" sounded funny. It's sorta part of a song that I made up, but yeah... maybe later. |

Well you can use the introduce yourself thread... Interesting that his real "alien" name sounds more like a genuine name than the "human" one he makes up ![]() But I think someone is going to have a word with you...

On the subject of Wiki, look what I found! It's a nice little demo... huge file size (about 100 megs) <_< But it was interesting... oh, and it's not wiki, it's called bbr or something... |
