Blood?

Bloodshed optional feature in future Zelda games? n_n

The hell with optional, make it obligatory. A little red blood once in a while. Christ.

Lol...No

Unless it's purple, that's fine. xD

wahaha she said purple.
now seriously i doubt anyone can come up with the optional blood idea for a game at all.

link is mauling people with a friggin sword, yesss bring the blood

A bit of realism but I don't want Zelda turning into one of those gory games that 45 year-old single moms frown upon. I dunno why, I'm a 15 year old boy and probably should be all for it, but yeah, no. Zelda has gotten pretty far without blood. Only if it were added for realisms sake, but blood to imply darkness is rather cliche.

Well I said optional because the developers want it to be a game for everyone (including little kids) and bloodshed in games makes parents, etc. freak out. XD

Cliche applies to presentation?

XD When you slash an ememy with your sword they should bleed something! Purple blood... Green blood...Chocolate blood XD something!

As a good brother, I must say no.

My 9yo sister actually watches me play Zelda. Currently, I'm playing through MM and every once in a while, she'd ask me to play it just so she can watch.

So as a good brother, I must say ****ing HELL NO!!!

maby they can make cheats to controll the amount and colour of the blood

Nintendo won't put blood in the games...

y wont they. it will get the ppl who only buy games so they can make bleeding corps walls buy the game (GTA fans)

Nope. No blood. Especially considering that the monsters explode when they die?!? They're more likely to bleed gunpowder, than actual blood!

If you wanna be realistic, they should fall to the floor and lay there when they die. And when you come back they'll still be there. But having blood for blood's sake would mean that Link would have to bleed as well.

I really wouldn't mind a little bit of blood, but I think that Zelda has proved that it can be mature and dark without it. There really is no need for it.

Mystically blowing up in black clouds is fine by me.

There shouldn't be blood. All sorts of different ages have long been attracted to the zelda series, but that would probably change to only teenagers if they added blood. However, I can't say I'm against the idea.

There's a three page thread for this, already.

Well...I said purple blood because in Twilight Princess killing underwater monsters usually caused purple blood to swarm all over the water. . .And I thought that was neat but then I was also like "Why purple?"

I'd be okay with red blood during cutscenes, but not actual gameplay. Kind of like what OoT did with the original Ganny scenes. There is something about seeing someone impaled and nothing coming out that just annoys me, when I'm soaked up in a cutscene. xD

Lol at Double A. Your sister watches you play Zelda? That's how I was introduced to the game watching my family members play.

Anyone who's played TP or OoT would know that there already IS blood. In OoT Ganon friggin' coughs it up, and in TP, there's purple blood when you kill underwater enemies, and white blood when you kill Teketites.

Yeh, but its barely noticable. Not to mention that a - say - 9yo girl wouldn't know that it was blood coz of all the pretty colors.
