Talk:The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

What will The Twilight Princess be rated?

Well, I personally think it will be rated Teen, but it is not for certain. I am so excited for it! I can't wait!

Wait.
Weren't there three trailers released, as opposed to two? There was the first one at E3, the next one ten months later at the GDC, and then the next one on the following E3. The last one introduced us to Link's transformation and Midna

The game will most definitely be a Teen rate (all boxes say Rated T), considering the atmosphere, the tone, the kind of graphics, and battles and monsters.

What Happened
I think someone screwed around with the page and deleted it. I'll let one of the mods take a look. I've got a copy of most of the text that was one the original page. If you can't get a back up, just let me know and I'll edit what I still have from it. --Gambit8585
 * Hmm, I'm not sure how to perform a rollback on wiki articles. Jason should know how to do it - we'll wait for him. --Toby 03:24, 25 October 2006 (CDT)

Rewrite
I did a complete rewrite. This game is now out, so all of the information needed to be confirmed and changed. Since I'm playing it, I thought I might as well share the knowledge I have to far. --Jase 16:31, 24 November 2006 (CST)

Completion times
My first playthrough completed in 34 hours. I'm on my second, and am on track for a 15 hour completion. Is this worth noting in the article? 144.175.20.122 07:04, 26 November 2006 (CST)


 * No, the article is for information, not for posting your own accomplishments and speed run times. --Jase 13:04, 26 November 2006 (CST)


 * Trust me, this game is not 70 hours long. My first play through was only 53 hours long and I have completed it 100% (every heart container, chest, etc.). I understand that these are personal scores, but it goes to show that this game isn't as long as originally thought.--64.136.27.229 13:52, 10 December 2006 (CST)


 * Or that people are just playing too fast. --Jase 16:04, 10 December 2006 (CST)


 * The 70 hour reference is quite a bit out of line. Very few people will take this long to play it. For 100% completion the first time around that might be a reasonable estimate, but you should clarify as such if that is your intention for the estimate. I think a 40-50 hour estimate is going to me more typical for people that play through the first time and do most things and a fair amount of exploration. I agree, speed run times are not relevant, but the 70 hour estimate is completely misleading. --152.1.42.32 14:45, 3 January 2007 (CST)

Question
Um...I thought the Twilight Princess wasn't Princess Zelda...Am I mistaken? Erebus 23:42, 29 December 2006 (CST)
 * Seems like she is, I own the game, and you meet her (thanks to Midna) pretty early on. --70.66.98.187 10:09, 17 January 2007 (CST)

She is not The true identity of the Twilight Princess is reveiled later in the story.--Spirit of the Legend 14:57, 17 January 2007 (CST)

incorrect story
I started to read the story and it was really off like some who just heard of the game. 71.65.34.160 21:26, 23 January 2007 (CST)


 * Really? I beg to differ, considering that I rewrote that part ;)... and I've beaten the game since long ago. It's accurate, and the voice is professional (though it seems some people have edited it and deteriorated this a tad). I do agree that some parts of it aren't perfect - but hey, it's the beginning of the game. My memory isn't the best in the world. Feel free to make it more accurate if you feel that it isn't. --Jase 21:38, 23 January 2007 (CST)


 * complants

1 only Talo(boy) gets captured and not by king Bulblin 2. the twilight princess is clearly said and it is not zelda nor is she the master of midna. 3. the writing sounds confusing i.e. "I've beaten the game since long ago" 71.65.34.160 21:49, 23 January 2007 (CST)

Bosses - repeat?
Eh, I think the boss list is repeated twice... both in Dungeon Info and Boss Appendix. Should one be gotten rid of/changed? (I won't be here to confirm or refute anyone who answers, since I'll be away - just bringing something up.) --Jase 19:05, 14 February 2007 (CST)

Timeline Content
The section entitled "Time-line issues" was kinda scarry-bad. I rewrote, but kept things a minmilist as possible. Is more info needed, or is the link to the main article series good enough? --PIE

Chronology
I don't think the TP Zelda and Link are the same as in Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask. The hero that you learn skills from through the howling stones says that the skills he is passing on are ancient Hylian skills or some such thing - this was not the case in OoT/MM, and Link knew them instinctually in OoT/MM. Another bit of evidence is that when you go to the fishing hole, you see a picture of the guy who ran it in OoT, in black and white, and the girl who runs the fishing hole says that she thinks he's her ancestor. This is a different time period from OoT/MM, at least a hundred years further in the future.
 * Where do you get the impression of that suggestion (same Link) from the Chrollogy section. I personally don't see it implied anywhere, but, then again, I am readin the content (and wrote the content) already in the "different Link" frame of mind. What words should be changed? --PIE

GCN/Wii flip
Alright, a lot of us know that the GCN version was flipped to coincide with a player's hand in the Wii version. I was wondering: which one do we consider "canon". A lot of people will mention that Link is right-handed in TP, unlike every other left-handed Link, or which eye is covered by the Fused Shadow on Midna. So which is considered "the real" version? I would imagine the GCN, since it's the original, but some disagree. Saibh 12:30, 22 March 2008 (EDT)


 * Well, I'd certainly say that if for some reason we were to standardize the version from which screenshots were used, I'd most certainly say the GameCube version. So really, nothing should state that Link is right-handed, as really he's not; it's a technical issue that is not canon. That's my two cents, anyway. --Ando (Talk) 17:38, 22 March 2008 (EDT)


 * Um I agree completely with Ando.--Green 20:07, 22 March 2008 (EDT)


 * Although the one I own is the Wii verision, if the flip really matters for canon reasons, GC is almost definately canon, besides that Link is supposed to be left handed, in the Wii version the sun and moon rise and set on the wrong sides of the screen--Magnus orion 19:02, 31 March 2008 (EDT)
