Re: Great Sea or Hyrule?

There would still be loads of towns and NPC's on the main islands though. Imagine the Hyrule of TP split into two islands with an ocean and many smaller islands similar to the size they are in TWW.

If I had to choose from another TWW-esque game or one totally based on land I would pick the latter but a combination of both would be great. I doubt that'll happen though.
Would be nice, except I was picturing 3 or so large, hyrule sized mainlands and maybe a smaller one with the castle on it, all suspended on a huge grid of smaller islands. (hopefully with more to explore on each island than in Wind Waker. Its fine to just have a useless mass of land every once in a while, but I found myself too often traveling to an island to find absolutely no use for the island.) While you should have a boat designated to you like the king of red lions was in tWW, you should also be able to buy and sell horses specific to each mainland. The purpose of having three large lands is to represent the three gods, and although there would be a land dedicated to Farore, you would start on a town-sized island off the coast of the Farore mainland.

This would also cause conflicts in the story line like with the great sea there would have to be a link between the story and the sea or else it would make no sence to have it in the game and also with hyrule... anyone get what im saying?
This game could take place during the draining or flooding periods.
