Zelda war game

[Link_2_2]

I thought maybe we could throw a war game into the zelda mix.Juct think about it,you would be abiel to comand armies of Deku,Goron,Zora,Bulbin,or Darknight/Ironnukels.You alsow costaniz or charater at the beging of the game.Yes,you can make a Link Zelda or Ganon.Just want your opinan.

I had something like this in mind. I love RTS games, and Zelda could be a good candidate. It might be tough though. Its great for theorizing, but under what circumstances would Hylians go to war with the Zora? It might not fit Zelda canon. You could make one or two civilizations like Hyrule and Ganon which allows for a wide variety of troops. Things could be subdivided to focus on one race as the player chooses, like an army of Hyrule could be made up mainly of Zoras and Ganons army could mainly have Dinoflos.

I like the idea, but just don't know how it would fit.

The Imprisoning War. Sure, if you played as Hylians you're doomed to lose until Link wakes up, but there's still seven years of gameplay to be had there. And it wouldn't be the first time you get a downer ending.

It would be more like W.O.W. which is something that most people would: NEVER WANT TO HAPPEN,............ EVER!

[Sage of Earth]

Not WoW, just Warcraft. Since WoW isn't much of a wargame last I checked.

[Link_2_2]

It won't end up looking like Warkraft trust me.The Zoras,Gorons,and Deku are now thinking that since the Hylains have the triforce they could easly be concered,so they broke away from Hyrule and are trying to get the triforce for themseves.The Bulbin and Darknights,seeing this as a weakness,attack Hyrule.Well,guess that cover's everything.

Is this going the same direction as Halo to Halo Wars?
no, it just wouldn't work.

[ZantDarksage]

bad grammar.

i wouldn't want anything other than what zelda games are now.
if they went into RTS games, or games that are like "level 2, kokiri forest!"
i'd shoot myself.

the zelda franchise wouldn't benefit from this i don't think.
zelda games need to stay in the same basic adventure style they are.

maybe yeah, a typical zelda story game, but instead of saving zelda,
you're battling for more of the time, but in the same basic style.

it's just like, zelda bringing out a tekken style game, gah, no.

[BEHIND THE MASK]

I could see this happening actually... I'm always a big fan of war and strategy games.

Perhaps, a 'Hyrule Total War' would work out well, Rome Total War is a personal favorite game of mine and I love the strategy and realism put into it.

It could also be done somewhat like a Starcraft game... Rather then there being Terran, Protoss and Zergs there could be Hylians, Zoros and Gorons.

Its an intresting idea but will likly never get off the ground.

A good title would be

The Legend of Zelda: War of the Triforce
Imagine all the races of Hyrule coming together, with a huge battle at Hyrule Castle. I think Zelda should be made into a film. Would be amazing. But that in a game would be true brilliance.
