I don't like RPGs. In fact, I hate RPGs. I look at Final Fantasy and yawn. I don't give a shit about the graphics. To me, they're like the action scenes in a movie. I don't like modern games because they're too complex for me (not the stories, the playability) (is that a word?). I never figured out Mario 64 or any fighting game after Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
However, I love the Zelda series for three reasons:
A) They're easy to play. I was afraid Ocarina of Time was gonna be too complex, but I learned to play it in minutes.
The stories kick ass. Especially Ocarina of Time.
C) As a kid I loved A Link to the Past in spite of the RPGesque style and not because of it. I always looked at the art in the booklet and imagined how the game would be in 3D. The world of Ocarina of Time wasn't exactly how I imagined it as a kid but it's pretty damn close. And this new game looks even closer.
I'm not drooling over this game because of the graphics, though I suppose they're pretty good. I'm drooling over it because of what they suggest concerning the story, the playability and the resemblance to A Link to the Past.
