Description
More info revealed about this character: [link]1. She (it) speaks in Technobabble.
2. She looks like a faceless horror from some kid's nightmare.
3. If you're a science freak like me, you would have caught instantly that her name, Phi, is a letter of the Greek alphabet (it looks like this: Φ for those that don't know). Additionally, the Greek letter Phi is used in mathematical equations to predict vector rolls when entering the atmosphere from a zero gravity environment (among other atmospheric flight related mathematical equations). Once again awesome symbolic names are changed at the last minute. Oh well, there's still a Fi in Sci-"Fi".
I'm willing to throw down cold hard cash that Fi is from space.
EDIT: Well she ended up being a monotone break dancing robot. Huh...
But yes, model by me. Made and rendered in Maya 2010.

is that good or bad to you
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Good because it means I'll win a bet against many people. Bad because they'll probably look too funny to take as a serious threat, but that's just my inner pessimist.

got new info about phi for you
for one things its name is actually FI (more music based)
and despites the game's title fi's sword form is called the goddess sword
however
in the demo i played after i beat the stalfos and got the beetle upgrade fi language in describing it was
"anaylsis suggests that etc" do it definatly has a scifi element
and i know that there will be a scifi element in the game
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah that changed the name from Phi to Fi recently, probably to make it a pun on Sci-"Fi".
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
actually from what i've read it was always fi it was just mistranslated
and the fi part was to give it a connection to music (fi dances to the harp once or twice)

Uh i wouldnt get you hopes up about the space thing (i know you said that before) more likely its a servent of the gods
she looks like the fairy queen from wind waker
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I guess Phi just happens to speak advanced mathematical terms and techno-babble to Link because she just so happened to get a degree in astrophysics at the medieval academy of Hyrule then.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
actually hyrule doesnt even exist yet
anyway Phi is more likely a creation of the gods. (I believe there is a new goddess in this game who phi and zelda are most likely related to)
Many zelda games have the magic artifacts and areas take science motifs
(and how much real difference is there between magic and science fiction anway)
Case in point: Wind Waker's Tower of the Gods and its boss Gohdan, the semi tech feel of Zant's Palace, the machinary you find in most water temples to change the water level, and various other examples
anyway with the latest information i am getting really excited for Skyward Sword

You more or less prove my point that "magic" in Zelda is perhaps misunderstood technology and that perhaps the Goddesses and other celestial beings from the series are extraterrestrial beings influencing life on Hyrule. Thus I stand by my theory that Phi is otherworldly in origin.

meh whatever floats your boat

I knew Phi was 14,314 or something liek that in equations.. but that was just weird xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You might be thinking of Phi in the Golden Ratio Equation, which is approximately 1.6180339887498948482
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i don't know that number, but i guess, ja, but then again, i was confused by 3,14159265 wich is the normal Pi..

And what is your opinion on Phi? Dislike, like, etc...?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well the impressions they've shown of her so far have me liking the character. I've not seen too much of her yet sadly to make a final judgement.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I hope your opinion grows more and more to the liking side!

I'd like for Spirit Tracks to be the only blemish.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I figure Phantom Hourglass was even more of a blemish. Unless you're not counting it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Phantom Hourglass was ok to me, if anything it was just boring. The thing about Spirit Tracks that irks me most is that it insults my intelligence. That is it treats me, the player, like I'm an idiot and don't know any better. The term "Master of Icy Fire" being an example, and a switch in the second dungeon that literally opens up a door right next to it being another. People could argue that's because it was "made for kids" (which is true, the director wanted to make the game for his eight year old son who loved trains), but I like to think kids are smarter then that.

Why does Phi look like the Fairy Queen from Wind Waker I wonder?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
They might end up being related or something.

Well maybe it's "THEM" From MM.Won't know until we see.

Maybe there the same or maybe there related who knows.But one thing's or sure,she and Ghirahm are considered to be related in someway.She's good,he's evil!

I really want to find out her connection to Ghirahim. Hehe.

I'd not be surprised if they are related.

Phi, also used to denote phase changes, the angle with the z axis when using spherical coordinates, and it also denotes electric and magnetic flux :3
And interesting A loot seeking ability. What I wouldn't give for this in other games >.>
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Indeed. Coincidence that her name implies advanced science and mathematical implications? Or was it intended (as was the case when I named my game Sigma)?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
makes me wonder if the "magical" items in this game are actually magical or just technology advanced enough to be mistaken for such
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've had that belief long before Skyward Sword ever came along, ever since I read the creation story of Hyrule in A Link to the Past. They use some pretty scientific terms in that description...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Now that I think about it, alot of things scream technology, I love seeing technology and magic going together in games
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
interesting. She/it is supposed to turn into the skyward sword and then the master sword so that would be strange.

I love aliens. Aliens are cool. I hope she's an alien.
Thank you for the enlightenment.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It would be awesome if she ended up being a member of some advanced alien race. It would give some more grounds for my theories that Hyrule was being manipulated by such beings throughout it's history. I'm pointing a finger at the Oocca in particular...

Aliens are behind everything. They just don't want us to know it.
Your theory sounds pretty sweet to me.

Skyward Sword fanart in the Undying Neph's gallery?
OMG He must have been replaced by aliens!
The model itself is pretty good, though some areas look a little lumpy here and there.

Xeno influence is strong.

So, this brings up an important philisophical question: Have you hugged your alien today?

Dad kick ours out. 'course, all he did was steal pain medication, so it was justified.

Do I detect a bit of a positive change in attitude towards Skyward Sword? B)
