I've been busy working hard along with my team on this. We got some amazing things coming up very soon, here is one of them.
This is the new great fairy being worked on! :3

For some reason, I had her in my head singing: "Don't you wish yo fairy was hot like me...". But that is one smexy Great Fairy. Even I'm wanting to see this now. :P
I'm officially retired from beta testing, and resign my duties to those who have the time to do it.

Holy freaking shit that is magnificent!
I bet the ones in OoT3DS won't be this good.

But... shouldn't power be red?

And yeah, I hope you guys have plans to change the terrifying laughter.

yeah, and she doesn't look that "bitchy" as in the original OoT... hell, when I played it I really didn't know that Zelda fairies could be that hot ^_^

I think the great fairies from ALTTP most match my imagination of a fairy...

I used to be really confused by that as well. I'm glad I'm not the only one to have noticed that the great fairies were exceptionally ugly and especially that their laughter was terrifying. If you look at the original Japanese, though, it makes a little more sense.

The Japanese term that is translated in English into "fairy" is "yosei". Normal bottled "fairy"s are "ヨウセイ" and the Great "Fairy" is "妖精", but "ヨウセイ" is just the kana form of "妖精" and both are pronounced "yosei". Anyway "yosei" is usually translated into English as "fairy," but it's really only an approximate translation just like "oni" is only approximated as "devil"/"demon". For Western cultures the word "fairy" evokes some sort of Hans Christian Anderson world of fantasy, magic, and legends, whereas the word "yosei" for Eastern cultures evokes their version of a similar creature embedded in the mythos of their own separate folklore. In Japanese culture, "yosei" are powerful magical creatures that can bewitch humans and that have other powers like raising people from the dead. They aren't necessarily supposed to be beautiful as in Western cultures.

Still, having a beautiful yosei isn't impossible, and it sure makes a heck of a lot more sense to Western audiences than having a terrifyingly ugly "fairy". This new version you're working on looks epic, Zeth. Considerably better quality than the low-res ultra polygonal creatures from oot.

While they were kind of scary looking and ugly, I never actually had any problem with the OoT Great Fairies... to me they always seemed like nature goddess types, what with the clothes of vines, more primal, raw and sexual...

Well Zeth and the others didn't change that, which is good.

Agreed:

& what if we had 3 types of Great Fairies...

the red great fairy from the final version,=(Din),

the green fairy, (who is reffered to as "Venus", at least in my guidebook for ALTTPGBA),=(Farore),

...&, of course...

the beta blue fairy,=(Nayru)?!

Do you think you could try & do that, Zeth?!

Maybe take the model for the green fairy from ALTTP, &/or the OOT Beta stage based upon that game?!

Why has no-one responded :...: -_-

I would have thought someone would have noticed the above post that I made...

What did I do *THIS TIME*?!

& I double-checked my guidebook, & it *IS* Venus, Queen of Fairies, not only in my guidebook, but in the game itself...

( :duh: )

Tuf Pic no one here has any obligation to post replies.

If no one answers one of your posts it's either because they haven't read it yet (you scarcely waited a day, not eveyone checks this forum on a daily basis) or because they have nothing to say.

Oh, I know, but I thought my post would at least intrigue SOME PEOPLE, & it looked to me like some people posted recently...

Tuf,... You were clearly writing to Zeth.

I think most people who read your post were either neutral to your idea so they had nothing to say or they were for or against it but they wanted to see what Zeth said first since it's his project. Once Zeth responds then that might prompt people who are for or against your idea to speak up.

For myself, I'm indifferent to it. I'm surprised that the green fairy is called Venus, but it does seem to ring some faint bells in my head and anyway I really don't know the intricacies of the Zelda series' convoluted plot well enough to say much of anything intelligent about it.

Anyway don't take it personally. This is a very small forum. Those of us with lots to say have had to learn to cope with the silence like Duke said. I try to be more outgoing here than I normally am in forums just to keep the Karma up, but sometimes I really just don't have anything to say.
