Re: Which would "ruin" zelda more?

Quote:
Adding optional voice acting
Keeping every zelda untraditional (like MM and WW)
I'm strongly for both of these. Voice acting is a must in this day and age, and Zelda's should always be new and innovative like MM and WW.

Quote:
Setting Zelda in a modern day/futuristic setting, like FFVII
Introducing a female or non-Link character
Making a zelda game in a diffrent genre (Zelda MMO, Zelda FPS, etc)
Making spinoffs like they did with the Mario series
I'm ambivalent towards these. I think the EAD3 team could pull off an excellent steampunk/cyberpunk Zelda, but it wouldn't make the games better/ruin them, it would depend on the quality of the steampunk/cyberpunk world created. Introducing a non-Link or a female Link as the main playable character, I'm similarly ambivalent to - as long as they are a deep character, I don't mind. However, I would like the option to play as a female Link. Different genre, again, I reckon EAD3 could pull off most genres excellently, and look at the Metroid series, which changed genre beautifully. I think tLoZ could make an excellent RPG if well done. Some Mario spin-offs arguably outshadow the main series, notably the Paper series, so if the Zelda spin-offs were high quality jobs, I wouldn't mind.

Dumbing down and simplifying the story
keeping every zelda "traditional" (meaning like Alttp, OOT, and TP)
Making Zelda Casual
These would ruin the next Zelda for me.
