This is not a brag post, this is a post for people who can't listen/watch because they don't have time and doesn't want to browse 60+ pages of comments to see if new infos have been discovered.

And I like to make Recap.

Previews Thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1347188
I tried as much as I could not show anything that break embargo from what others members were saying.

When I put a SPOILER or WARNING SPOILER: I mean it! I tried as much to not put any

1) Previews were most limited to talk and only show about the tutorial area that we've seen last year at E3 so I won't repeat about those infos since this thread is about new stuff that weren't seen back then
E3 Thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1233823

2) Graphical flaws and frame drop rate: many testers mentionnend it briefly, please check the link below for more details.

3) About mounts

You can have a deer instad of a horse

- They can die
- You can kill them

4) Time lapse and weather effect

4) Town and NPC
This part was not showed but only talked in the videos, specialy the one of GameExplain

Wasn't sure what we were allowed to talk about here. But allow me to offer a bit more detail since it's been discussed (and it appears after reviewing guidelines it's okay as long as it isn't specific): NPCs have conversations that are literally dynamic. Their commentary changes according to not only weather, but even factors such as time of day and what you are holding or doing at times. And the dialogue is integrated into the conversation; it isn't a separate bubble or an obviously out-of-place blurb. It actually seems authentic.

5) Ennemies

You can use enemies agianst each other

Stupid fire blob (Chuchu)

Same barrel can be used against you

6) Physics

Repel a lazer beam

Who wants a fast ride ?

Gravity hurt

And let's never forget, from E3

Awesome, can't wait for the 3rd!

OricWindstar · Feb 25, 2017

Great thread! That giant Chu-Chu getting hit from the guardian blast is so satisfying.

I'm hoping I'm able to register a stag mount at the stables; I want to go full Mononoke for this.

dc89 · Feb 25, 2017

Looks soooooo good.

NumberThree · Feb 25, 2017

This game has so much GIF potential. That one with the shield breaking and Link dying from falling down the hill is too good.

you can have a boomberang as normal weapon

Also you need to manually catch boomerangs.

Somebody please posts the gif of the giant enemy throwing the skeleton.

It's in the op. Second gif under "Enemies"

By the way, these look like an absolute dream on my phone. I'm probably going to play the Switch a lot in portable mode.

HeySeuss · Feb 25, 2017

Damn. Climbing the tree to get away from that big dude. Awesome!

Also what's Link using to repel that laser blast? He looks like he has a normal wooden shield but I'm guessing it's upgraded. Haven't seen that gif before. Cool!

Hermii · Feb 25, 2017

The first thing Im dying to do when I leave the plateau is finding out what death mountain looks like up close.

This is what Zelda 1 on the NES was like in my imagination when I was four years old.

Horse strafing has me shook.

Yeah, have we seen that in any game ever? Seems like such an obvious thing to include to make riding a horse less cumbersome and yet..

ncslamm · Feb 25, 2017

The gif of the giant throwing the skeleton...hoooollyyy sheeeeet

AGoodODST · Feb 25, 2017

So good.

I love the one with Link using the built up inertia to ride the box. I remember way back at E3 folk speculating if you could do that with the boulders.

The horse gif is great too. Man they all are.

I wonder if the skeleton held on to the cliff

I don't know about this but Skeletons will try to retrieve their parts as long as they're alive and even take their camarades parts, lol We saw that during E3 Tree House.

In the preview thread someone said they saw a skeletons head make its way up a cliff to get back to its body.

Horse strafing is such a minor thing, but it instantly makes controlling horses in games in general 100x better to be honest.

This is insane... I feel like I spoiled myself a lot of gameplay stuff, but almost none of the story.

I out of here

Glass · Feb 25, 2017

They thought of so many things, so many little details.

Can't wait to master this game and have every fight a gif-able experience.

Chaos17 · Feb 25, 2017

This is before what happen in the gif I posted above

MosquitoSmasher · Feb 25, 2017

That part about town and NPC sounds fantastic.

Very few, if any of these open world games actually have that. As much as i love TES, certainly not there when i have become the master of all wizards basically and people still tell me to visit the Magic place, i forgot the name. That stuff takes me out of the experience a little. I guess walking around as Trevor in GTA V and how people react to him withouth him doing anything is a good example perhaps. But that bit about Zelda.....man.

Ashodin · Feb 25, 2017

The color customizing has me legit shook

My reaction was literaly: Harvest Moon meet Animal Crossing in Zelda, lol

It's in the Dynasty Warriors series, though it looks kinda goofy there. Granted I have no idea how realistic it is to ask a horse to strafe so maybe it all looks goofy to a proper equestrian?

No, that's what I meant. As in, it's so obvious in hindsight - why hasn't it been done before?!

Not sure but I think I read somewhere that some Dynasty Warriors has this. I have no idea if it's true.

I'm just happy that the Zelda series continues the trend of letting you actually talk to everyone, as well as enter their homes unannounced. Even with the addition of voice acting, they did the smart compromise of only letting the major characters have it, whereas everyone else does some grunts and what not.

You can increase item durability, or get items which already have increased durability / reinforcement

I know Black Desert does it (and has excellent horse riding in general).

Enduin · Feb 25, 2017

This game is going to be extremely GIF worthy for a long time to come. Someone should make an online repository.

Omega Kirby · Feb 25, 2017

You're telling me I can run around hyrule on Bambi?

xandaca · Feb 25, 2017

I'll be honest, being able to cuddle dogs and have them follow you about multiplies my excitement for this game by a factor of ten. I was concerned that the Wolf Link Amiibo was the only pup interaction that'd be in the game, so very relieved that's not the case. Maybe Nintendo can patch in a kennel where you can name and take dogs for walks! This has basically become Nintendogs in my mind now.

NightwingRebirth · Feb 25, 2017

So knowing we can have Wolf Link as a companion,

it's nice that we can have pet dogs. How does that work, though? We register horses but what about dogs? And is it multiple types of canines or...?

And as for mounts,

deer is a nice idea, but what about rams? I saw some in gameplay and they look pretty cool. Anyways, can we register deer, too, or are they just temporary?
