Look. True, in just graphics quality level WW is obviously better... but I'm talking about how the style works...
By "the graphics" I was trying to not have to write that whole long series of posts I just wrote a week or two ago... but I guess I'll have to write more.
I would think you'd know some of my opinions by now... that the graphics look great for their style, and that the cartoon look is very convincing... but that I just think that that cartoon style, when applied to Zelda, doesn't allow for the same possibilities of immersion... you could think you're in a cartoon, sure, but OoT did more than that... with this graphic style for me it just doesn't work on that level. While this cartoon look is perfect for some things I just can't see it as a good representation of Zelda... and can't get immersed in it to the same extent, no matter what happens in the game itsself.
And I can't help but think about how much better it would look in a realistic style... sure doesn't help any...
Is it still a great game? Yeah, of course...
