Zelda 2014 Details - (Unconfirmed)

[Xannidel]

Personally I think the Zelda franchise has a sort of charm to it that it stands out in the regards that it does not need Link to "talk" to get the players interested in playing the games. The games are about dungeon exploration, finding awesome and magical items, defeating bosses using items that you recently got or obtained earlier on, the side missions and also the quirky and lovable characters...Oh and the music, can't forget that.

I am not a huge Zelda fan but that is just what I believe and to make Link talk would ruin that charm it has and has always had.
