[QUOTE="Mr_Bob471"][QUOTE="Barmy_Brat"][QUOTE="DaAznSaN"]The parry is a good idea but I didn't like how it was implemented in the Wind Waker. It was mostly only used against the armored enemies, and you can only do it when you're given the prompt. I would much rather have it like the countering in fighting games. You can press the block button (in Zelda, the shield) the moment ANY enemy strikes you and you'll perform some type of counter.
This could also be used to avoid projectiles. Link has a delay time till he pulls out his shield but if you press the button just as the projectile is about to reach you, you'll perform a quick sidestep and you'll be able to quickly attack.
The main problem I noticed with Zelda games is that you usually just hold up your shield and wait for an opening. I want to the next Zelda to remove that aspect by rewarding players who are more aggressive but still avoid damage with good timing on dodges and counters.

Well said. I totally agree, and your ideas seem pretty good as well. Good job!
I agree, the atack itself was a very good addition giving you further atack options, although it could have been used in more situations then that and fighting Orca. They may be further expanding on this in "Zelda o5". In the trailer we saw Link giving a small spider a taste of down thrust, what else could it be used for...
those would all be great things to add in, i always thought they should find more ways to implement magic into the fighting like adding more special attacks that used the magic meter, and i always thought they should give you the bow early in the game and then later have a crossbow as an upgrade
that would be a cool idea about the bow but with a crossbow u cant control how far the arrow would go but more on topic i was satisfied with the parry attack in WW but would like to see it used more often
