Do you think she's really the personification of the Master Sword?

But that's just random theory's.

This is what my thought on her has been. To a T really. That she will someone how be placed into the sword (or transforms back and forth, idk) and that is how the master sword becomes "Evil's bane" and all that cool stuff.

Okay I so just pictured some fancy orchistra playing and then some girl in one of the rows just breaking out into an orgasam. And it's quite possibly the funniest thing I've though of all *checks time* day. Which isn't saying much since it's only 43 minutes into it but my point still stands.

Everyone has a different look on things.. I'm sure the master sword idea is a coincedence.

But right now there's more evidence for the MS theory.

Then again, it could be both. She could be a fairy that can turn into the MS.

That might work. Like I said, I'll be accepting of the outcome, whether she is the Master Sword or not.

But the argument isn't whether or not she'll end up as the MS, it's whether or not she is currently the MS.

^ughhh.

you ass-hole. =P

ruining the game art FOREVER!!!

She is not currently the MS because no official statement has come about. Therefore any claims that she is, in fact, this sword of legend is pure speculution and nothing more. Her status as the MS is no more fact than the many Zelda timeline theories that are out there.

I see what you're saying...that the decision might already be made by Nintendo as to her identity. I'm saying that because we don't know that for a fact, that there's no official statement brought to our attention on this matter, that we have to see if she ends up being the MS after all or not. Simple as that.

Not trying to confuse anyone, just trying to clarify what I meant in my post.

I think it would be an interesting concept. The master sword was always described as being a living sword and never elaborated on further than that.


.....that and her design makes it just a little obvious. I'm pretty sure that she's the master sword.

Cmon we all know shes the Master Sword. Dont lose sleep when you find out from Miyamoto himself.

Because you think I don't want her to be the Master Sword? Better question: why do you guys want her to be the Master Sword so badly? I'd personally rather have a sword that I can swing and with which to hack enemies to bits. And if she is the Master Sword, then I hope there's a dang good reason for it. I've trusted the Zelda series to deliver quality for over twenty years now, and I don't want to be disappointed with this new installment.

She could be some sort of trick.... maybe Ganny found some way to seal away the Master Sword (since he can't destroy it, and he doesn't want Link to get his studly hands on it.)

To further throw Link and Zelda off the trail, he creates an artificial lifeform that greatly resembles the Master Sword (for extra homework points, he could create the girl to honestly believe she is the Master Sword, which could only work to Ganny's advantage in so many ways.)

Just guessing, but it could be an interesting twist. Girl could either come to love Link/Zelda and betray Ganny if she knows she is a decoy, or she could find out she isn't the Master Sword at all and be horrified at this revelation.

You are showing your bias already. You think because she could be a personification of the MS that the game would lack quality? Not all Zelda storylines are believable and realistic, but they deliver. You see this idea and think, "No no the game will lack quality if that happens." Im sorry if it hurts to think about. But if you thought about both sides, what if she is what if she isnt, you would realize they still have the potential to make this game great and that there could be a positive outcome. Just because she's probably related to the master sword doesnt mean the game will lack quality.

First of all, I think it's silly for anyone to jump all over a silly rumor propagated by Interviewers and led on by a wiley fox like Miyamoto. He knows how to keep a crowd in suspense, and he feels no remorse for making us believe one thing when in fact it's something completely different. To say, "OH YEAH, she HAS to be the Master Sword because her belt looks like the sword's hilt and her hair comes to a point," sounds extremely silly, no offense intended to those who perpetuate this theory with this weak evidence.

Secondly, my bias comes naturally from the fact that Nintendo is constantly changing what it does with the Zelda series to further suit the causal gaming audience while almost completely forgetting about the hardcore fanbase that would almost literally die for these games. It's preposterous and saddening, and I wish we could have the best of both worlds--casual and hardcore, a nice theory--but in practice this is complete doo doo.

Third, if the Master Sword is personified, it means Nintendo might have a strange gimmick on the way for this new Zelda game, and I'm wary of gimmicks because it just might stray from what has been proven to work in the past. Thus my comment about rather just having the Master Sword as a normal blade to do some hacking and slashing for me.

Don't reprimand me for being worried. I'm surprised you're not worried either. And if you are worried, then sympathize with the others who are as well.

My take on this is: if she's not the actual Master Sword, then she is somehow involved in it.

What I REALLY think lately is that since the new game will use 1-to-1 with Link's main weapon, what if you click a button on the Wiimote which turns her from a person following beside you INTO the sword and then the Wiimote acts as the sword and you can use her to "draw" slashes and such on the screen ala Okami. She wouldn't be in Link's hand, it would be like the Celestial Brush in Okami where it's just floating on the screen.

The reason why I think this might be the case is because even though they can do 1-to-1 now programing-wise, it might still be tricky to design and implement all the animations necessary for the sword to actually be in Link's hand without it looking weird.

Just a thought.

Riiight so we shouldnt use what MIYAMOTO says as any hint to whats in a game. We should just use our gut feeling?

And to say she isnt related to the Master Sword for personal bias reasons is the same as looking at the evidence and making a judgment about it?

She's connected to the Master Sword = gimmick? Hahaha wow, Can you make your bias any more clear?

God people.. Miyamato also says ZWii will make use of the Wii remote(Specifically he said based on the success of the swordplay in Wii Sports Resort, he will use that in this ZWii title)

So if this thing is the master sword how the hell could we even attempt any type of swordplay with her? We couldn't and obviously a sword will be introduced here, most likely the master sword if not another sword.

Lol...think about it a bit. She looks like the Master Sword...most people assume she has the ability to change from Sword to...whatever she is.

Are you seriously saying that Link would swing HER around?

Don't you think that she would somehow "enter" the MS and Link would swing it like usual (Think Minda in Link's shadow)?

I'm just hoping she's a step up for the "partner" character Link always needs to have lately. She already seems 100 times more interesting than Midna.

She's most likely his companion like Midna or Navi. Possibly the Master Sword's spirit? Can't say for sure, but it's an interesting concept. Not quite as intriguing as the made-up concept of Link having black hair, a confused identity, and all that...

I think she moves independently of Link, but that you control her with the Wiimote by pressing B or something. That would change her into the Master Sword which you could move freely across the screen.
