They delayed because the Pokemon Company wanted Gen 9 out this year, having two big open world titles coming out back to back on the same platform with at least some guaranteed audience overlap like that would be a terrible idea.

Funny how the in game elden ring screenshot looks better than the art work for BOTW though. Elden Ring is beautiful.

Zelda games always get delayed you retarded zoomer.

Two shit franchises from two shit devs.

Why is Elden Ring so ugly?

It's funny how much better BOTW looks. It really is beautiful.

How does an asset reusing sequel, reusing the same world space, on the same system end up taking longer to develop than the original game did?

t. Doesn't understand art

Who are you quoting (unironically)

>ER 3 years
>botw2 7 years
Kek

>reusing the same world space
They already said they're adding both an underground and a sky world, so this point's bullshit.
>on the same system
BotW was a Wii U game ported to Switch. Funny how Yea Forums seems to constantly forget this.

Nintendo delayed BOTW 2 because they couldn't compete with chinkshit

I don't think Nintendo really competes with anyone anymore. They know what they have and they know people will buy what they have. They could release BotW2 to absolutely no fanfare and with no build up and it would still do gangbusters on recognition alone.

Ironically it's taking this long because it's taking this long. An asset flip would already be out but development took long enough that a mere asset flip wouldn't be good enough, so now they need to put out something better but better takes as much time as a brand new game.
Oh, and they are spending all their time inventing systems to patent :)

yeah ER is the most visually stunning game to date rdr2 players assblasted about it, did you know er has now sold more than 20m copies on steam alone? it does everything skyrim does well but better, its a better zelda game than botw, it has better driving than gta, better more involved story than cyberpunk, it doesnt have any rts elements but its almost the best rts too. its also a better sandbox than minecraft. how did they do it?

also whatever your personal favorite game is elden ring is that game but better.

This but unironically
Elden Ring horse riding is better than any driving in gta

lol.... lmao....

at the end of your life when youre being judged this will be the lie that keeps you out of heaven. no matter what.

I don't really think there's any need for shitflinging between these two fanbases personally. My main takeaway from both of these games is that two developers inexperienced in making open world games took a crack at it and both saw great success, being seen as pioneers in a genre that has been stagnating for around a decade. For me, I see this as a beacon of hope. They're creating unequivocal competition for other developers. Ubisoft and the lot will be hard pressed to keep pumping out the same old shit after seeing a country that barely touches the genre breathe new life into it.

Both of these games are great news for the industry because they're actually trying to push forward. Perhaps good things are ahead.

thanks retard ers innovation was adding bigger fields to a souls game.

will this board ever be filled with gamers again? give fromsoft its own fucking board already. theres clearly enough 'fans' for it at this point.

You fucking wish.

BotW 1 is actually a Wii U game on a Wii U engine. Most likely it had to be rebuilt to better suit the Switch hardware. Not only that there's an entire sky world they're developing.

>gen 9
>big open world
lmao

I am fucking impressed by what they did with the world in Elden Ring, most of my complains about open world in games is that after 10+hours you already saw everything, only open worlds that still were interesting to explore after hours was Witcher 3, Gothic 2 and RDR 2. But Elden Ring even now after 30 hours is still so full of new shit and i am now starting to rush it because fuck i am not gonna play a game for 100+ hours. Yes there is reused content (a fucking lot of it, dungeons and catacombs). But still shit is interesting to explore

Fromshitters are so insecure that their game couldn't even top a 6 year old Wii U title.

Attached: 20220409_183825.jpg (2880x2880, 335.73K)

Elden Ring literally isn't even better than BOTW1, so why would they delay a game that's most likely going to stomp it?

Fuck forgot about Fallout New Vegas. Also top tier world. fucking loved that game

User score of Souls games is lower the more difficult the game is.

Covid. But my bet is that the game is already done, they probably just want to release it alongside the switch successor next year.

>shill thread #487623
embarrassing really.

What are you talking about chud. BotW2 will outsell Elden Ghey

Guaranteed will make 12m in three weeks though?

probably

You guys could be right, but personally I think now and then the autists working at nintendo have the stars aligned and pay attention to what other devs (japanese only obviously) are doing and they get their sense of shamefur dispray and think of actually doing better for once.
It kind of happened with smash bros, mario kart, splatoon. and it could be time for the zelda franchise to be given a run for its money.

Cool, so my paperweight won't even get one final game.

So in short nintendo is aware ER would have embarrassed and blown them the fuck out.
Only way we can tell this is true is if weapons are not breakable next year.
Pushed to next year just to remove weapon durability lmao

It’ll still be playable but it is a bit frustrating if the only reason they actually delayed it this long is to jumpstart the successor.

>nintendo is aware ER would have embarrassed and blown them the fuck out

Kek nigga Elden Ring could even compete with a 6 year old Wii U game. Ya seethin so hard.

Name two good franchises that had a release within the last 4 years

Sam Byford is known transexual

I personally find hilarious how utterly shit and not memorable botw bosses are. while ER has a couple dozen? plus a shitton of mini bosses that make the game fun/challenging.
meanwhile im only looking forward to botw to bring lynels 2.0 to the table and hopefully base a couple new enemies on how though they usually are. I have no other expectations besides actual dungeons.

>using some of the same assets makes it an asset flip

Theres nothing to compete with.

I'll genuinely never understand why fromdrones are so desperate about their meme series being better than zelda, why are you so obsessed? makes you sound like the butthurt rival character in shonen wanting to surpass the hero only to get repeatedly btfo

mental illness

I personally find it hilarious that Nintendo were able to develop a game comprising of interconnected systems creating a dynamic and systemic living breathing world were the player has complete agency. AND got this to run on a fucking toaster.

While half a decade later modern developers can only churn out dead sterile worlds where the player needs to spend dozens of hours grinding to get anywhere.

lmao why can't anyone compete with Nintendo. Are they even trying?

>two-way street
no absolutely not, zelda fans don't give a fuck about janky autistic rollfests, it's entirely one sided

in fact spergs manage to both argue that botw was only successful because tendies only play nintendo games and therefore were impressed by their first open world game but somehow now botw2 "competes" with a game that didn't release on switch, complete retardation

You never stopped huh

Off topic
But how much does nintendo regret not putting in a souls character instead of sora with his obvious souls bait and switch trailer? Considering all the negative publicity disney is getting rn
The whole activision thing was enough reason for trash bandishit not getting a costume lmao

BotW mindbroke you. The game is 6 years old now and you still can't get over it.

show me five threads from zelda fans mentioning soulshit in the past month because I can easily find 5 from the other side

BoTW mindbroke tendies judging by how desperately they are still damage controlling it here

It's been confirmed Shazamposter was a bing bing tranny.

>duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude what if we just made a game like Just Cuase, Skyrim, and Far Cry since our loyal tendie pedos don't play anything other mario, zelda and pokemana they will never know our secret of ripping off other games and oh, our nintendo bonus from reviews will make sure that no journo will mention similarities from these games haha xDD

ER making 12m in 3 weeks should be enough to mind rape yours.
You know everyone is going to shit on you and your leaders if it surpasses botw’s 25m

The artists/world designers of Elden Ring really did an amazing job, but the actual game kills the "adventure". The horse just breaks all enemy encounter design and you're basically funneled into copy + paste dungeons and content.

>botw’s 25m
botw was at 27 million at the end of last year and keeps selling around 4 million every year, it's not even sure it'll stop selling once the sequel is out, but whatever helps you cope

Open world games are just a waste. Both BoTW and ER are wasted potential. Dark Souls 3 was better than ER and BoTW is a mediocre Zelda title.

Remember when bing bings claimed Miyazaki was inspired by BoTW?

And then in literally every interview, he just cites Fumito Ueda as his biggest inspiration ever?

Breath of the wild is truly one of the best games ever. It even surpasses pac man for me and I’ve been playing that since 1983.

I unironically liked BOTW way more than Elden Ring. BOTW has more internal consistency. In Elden Ring there are certain places your horse can't go because...reasons. There are certain builds and weapons you can't use because...reasons. It's the most hyper-strict, hyper-meta gaming piece of shit out of all the Souls games.

Breath of the Wild is internally consistent. I know that I can freeze water in any body I see. I can set fire to anything that's flammable. Elden Ring will actively slap your wrist and say "NO, I DON'T WANT YOU TO PLAY THAT WAY!!!"

DS3 is big better than ER, but I agree about BOTW

Bruh....

It's tragic how Switch still doesn't have games so they need to buy a shitty failed Just Cause clone.

Oh well, games like Elden Ring and RDR2 have already rendered BoTW obsolete.

Why do you people do this? You do this with Elden Ring too, it's really fucking cringey. I see these same webms of VERY OBVIOUS BUGS AND GLITCHES THAT RARELY HAPPEN get posted over and over again to make some kind of point.

Still can't make a single game as good as Nintendo's Zelda games LOL

It's all literal repulsive bing bing shit. It says something about the Switch crowd when top sellers are housewife time killer AC, kiddy time killer MK8 and manchild homo time killer BoTW.

It really isn't, especially compared to the souls games.

This is nothing compared to the BOTW delays

Meanwhile Dark Souls changed literally the entire medium.

He is right though, this thing runs like shit when it doesn't look better than GTA V for example, i don't know why the fuck they switched to DX12, maybe bandai using it to kill old cards?
I lost my shit when i realized i would have low fps when starting at a wall, meaning is rendering shit that is not even on my screen.
