For those of you who dont have a subscription to EG, or havent run out and bought it already I'll just post a few things in the zelda 05 interview that seem to be running questions in this forum.

>The game starts out in 'Toaru' ('unspecified' in japanese) Village which is not in Hyrule, but the village raises cattle for the kindom of Hyrule: Link is asked to go to Hyrule for a big festival instead of the village chief.

>Even the creators are unsure of exactly where this game will fall in the zelda timeline: "I cant really go into that, partially because I want to keep it a secret , but also because we havent decided yet. There are some kinds of...unstable, uncertain ideas we're working on. Depending on what course we choose in terms of development , the final ending may change" -Eiji Aonouma, Zelda Producer

>The games subtitle has not yet been decided

>Aonouma refused to comment on the wolf howling at the moon, but he did say that he wanted to incorporate some idea that link could communicate with animals, but being able to play with the cats in the village was mostly to get people used to the idea that you can do things like touch and pick up animals during gameplay.

>There will not be a GBA-GC link cable setup for the game

Those are just some of the basic questions I see alot on these boards, the full interview was much more extensive with great screenshots (especially of Toaru Village, and Link fishing) and a picture of a (full grown) man dressed up as tingle! *shudder* If you are a die-hard zelda fan, I would recommend you get it (if you dont already have it!!)

Lets all keep an eye on E3, and hopefully Aonouma will tell us more!!

Me neither. Does anyone know if link will talk to peolpe, as in you can hear him not just *shakes head*, or is that unspecified?

No, Aonouma was very decisive that there would be no voice acting, apart from the usual grunts and hiyahs, with the possibility of the occasional "oh" or "yeah" (which is currently undecided I believe)

I'm just happy I could end all the "it's Epona!" "No it's not!!" arguments.
