I know I kind of word it it weird, but bare with me.  What I'm trying to ask is if you think most of the monsters look a lot better in TP then you would vote Monsters, or if you like how they remade the Hookshot into Double Clawshot, like Spider Man's webs, and the standard Boomerang into being able to create tornados then you would vote Weapons.

How come graphics and storyline isn't up there? Those are my favorite improvments.

Faster scrolling text, and the fact that you can skip cutscenes (even though I won't be skipping them for a while).

I'm going to go with character design, although that may be a side effect of graphics. Everyone was pitch perfect- the Zora were amazing, and I'm always fond of Ganondorf's designs since after Wind Waker. And his final form? I don't think is particularly spoiler-y, but I'm so glad they're moving more towards boar then pig.

I have to say the new/upgraded weapons and items. I really loved some of them like the spinner, arrow/bomb combo, and double clawshots (Link: "Wee look at me, I am Spider-Man").

They're all graphics.  So the question I guess now is "Which new graphics do you like?"

I liked the new weapons too...I also liked the realism of Castle Town this time around, where it's packed like you would expect, and everyone freaks out when they see a wolf...

And then run towards wolf Link..... ::)

I go for the new items. They're sweet. The Dominion Rod was very original (design mostly). I wish Nintendo put more silly rods/wands/canes in the TLOZ games. The new "hook device" is nice. Like a mix of the Hookshot and Grapling Hook (minus a few functions). The Spinner really surprised me. If anyone who'd have asked me what I would think about such a device in the game, I think I would've been very sceptical. It was a cool addition though, and one of the few items that actually made exploring in TP feel good. And fighting with the Ball and Chain just felt so good.

The only complaint I have is that they should've given that thing to call Epona anywhere a lot earlier in the game. It just felt VERY useless when I got it and just didn't really need it anymore.

Not an option, but I also really liked the new races.

I also hated it when they gave you the necklace at the end.  I should've put races.  I think Gorons have the same basic appearance, they're taller and more muscular I think.  My fav improvment was Zoras.  They're girl Zoras right, the ones with out the helmets?

Not necessarily. Prince Ralis looked pretty feminine, if I recall.

Well all Zoras look feminine.

I hate the new design. I guess the "important Zoras" proved Zora eyes don't have to be black, but I loved it so much. They were beautiful. And the new design...why do they all look like a darker Japas/average Zora mix? I don't like it at all. Not for the average Zora at least. And yes, they all have feminine heads (even ralis!) and sounds (though the latter might be explained as something necessary to communicate underwater, like whales or something), but none of them have breasts or other "female shapes", which we know female Zoras are supposed to have.

I like the new Goron design though. I just don't understand why the all wear undies. I mean, it's not like they have anything to hide. Wearing clothes is okay, but let one wear a shirt and one wear some sumo outfit, because it's obvious they only wear clothes to look good.

I thought they did have breasts.  You can't see the warriors heads.  I always assumed they were guy Zoras, albeit sexist to have only men Zoras as warriors.

You made me doubt, so I went and checked.

No. Except for Rutela, no model has breasts or hips. They all have the same male body.

Are you sure?  I'm almost possitive they do.  I can't get the Wii version because I CAN'T FIND ONE!  
Title: Re:Favorite Improvment
Post by: LadyNintendo on January 21, 2007, 02:00:30 AM
Uh, what? You have played the game, right? No matter which version you have, the same models are used. And it's one male model for average Zoras only.

Me saying I don't have the Wii was off topic.  I didn't have anything to do with this, BUT KNOW I GOT ONE!

congrats on your acquisition.

Thank you.  I still don't know how to use Miis, internet channels, and I'm having a terrible time with the reversed directions in TP.  I'm left-handed but it says I'm right does anyone know how to fix that?  The Zoran faces seemed the most feminine part to me.

you have to be right handed on twilight princess.Majority rules, sucker :P

Graphics and landscape. This is what I wanted from Wind Waker.

OMG, imagine Wind Waker with TP graphix!! That would be schweet!!!

Imagine TP with TWW graphics. Would be really sweet too. Maybe then they would've used different models for everyone....

I meant how to use Miis with the Internet, but the thing is I'm ambidextrous(not spelled correctly).
