The highly anticipated sequel, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, has drawn the interest of many fans worldwide. In a recent Nintendo interview, the game's producer Eij Aonuma, director Hidemaru Fujibayashi, and designer Satoru Takizawa discussed the game's development process and their strategy for developing a game that gives players more choice and freedom in exploration.

The developers emphasized the importance of fan feedback and how it influenced their approach to designing Tears of the Kingdom. The development team considered how fans played and interacted with the previous game in the series and sought to create a game allowing players to freely explore and experiment with different strategies and approaches.

To achieve this, the developers ensured that the game was programmed to allow players to create whatever came to mind without any limitations or constraints. They wanted players to be free to experiment and explore without worrying whether their actions aligned with the developer's intentions.

Despite concerns about the potential for players to misuse particular abilities, the developers reassured fans that the features would not cause any issues on the system side. They wanted players to feel free to customize their gameplay experience without fear of causing any technical problems.

In addition to offering players more freedom, the development team emphasized the importance of creating a realistic and immersive game world. They focused on elements like sound design and the sense of distance as players move through the game world to create a truly immersive experience.

They also drew inspiration from ancient Japanese culture when designing the game's civilizations and supernatural imagery. By infusing the game with these elements, they hoped to create a mysterious and atmospheric world that players would be eager to explore.

Overall, the development team emphasized the importance of players enjoying the game at their own pace and finding unique ways to approach each challenge. They advised players to take their time and explore all aspects of the game rather than rushing to the end. By offering players more freedom and encouraging experimentation, they hoped to create a game that fans would love and continue playing for years.
