Nintendo created its own Zelda-themed "social media" to help it finish Tears of the Kingdom, with Rupees instead of likes
Step aside, Facebook

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tears of the Kingdom may just be the biggest 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Legend of Zelda game to date - so big, in fact, that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo made its own social media platform 🌃for developers to help speed up production.
During Japan’s Computer Entertainment Development Conference, Tears of the Kingdom director 🍃Hidemaro Fujibayashi and engineer Kenichi Hirose went behind the scenes with an in-depth look at the open-world Zelda sequel's deve♊lopment. As reported by , the team made quite an effort to help better streamline devs' work and improve communication between them - so much so, that they created an in-house social platform.
Much like Facebook or even Reddit, this platform served to promote discussion and sharing between its users - the Tears of the Kingdom devs. Dubbed the "Rupee Bulletin Board" in honor of the Zelda series' iconic gem-like currency, it sounds like📖 Nintendo's homemade social media site did everything it was supposed to do - devs could post feedback regarding playtests in real-time so that the rest of the team could easily keep track of everything.
The platform even had its own unique "like" or "upvote" system - devs could give each other "Rupees" if they agreed with something. This served as a useful priority system and made it much easier for Nintendo to summarize any data. The Rupee Bulletin Board came equipped with a set of rules, too - devs wanted posts to be objectiv🦩e, with opinions solidified only by facts rather than an𝓰y personal or subjectively formed impressions.
Nintendo also maintained a strict "no-argument rule" - any feedback would've needed to be given cons🐼tructively via posts and, of course, Rupees. As a Zelda stan myself, I love learning unexpected facts about the devs like the creation of the Rupee Bulletin Board - it'd be fun to see a fan-driven forum of sorts with similar systems in place, like🐎 Rupees instead of likes. I'll leave that to the professionals, though.
