Link especially in this generation is a boring rear end character. Zelda does all the work in BotW too.

The various Toon Links are the only Links that have much in the way of a distinct personality.

Man, I feel like some people played a different version of Skyward Sword than I did. Demise's curse isn't inflicted on Ganondorf, his curse IS Ganondorf: Demise in the Skyward Sword ending posted:Those like you… Those who share the blood of the goddess and the spirit Plus Ganondorf is always the same dude who comes back, he is just that loving determined and pissed, so I dunno about the idea that he was the ancient hero. He'd had to have done a complete 180 on his long standing policies of "gently caress you" and "Hyrule's mine", because he's not reincarnated like Link or Zelda are... which also means he'd have to be fighting himself. Also Ganon being an extremely determined angry rear end in a top hat is part of what makes him so cool.

Fortis posted:Man, I feel like some people played a different version of Skyward Sword than I did. Also, turning "somewhat justified and sympathetic" Windwaker Ganon into an explicit "Capital E Evil, born from the unending hatred of a dark god" robs him of a lot of his character.

Skyward Sword was bad not only because it was barely playable ugly trash, but because it was the first real effort to introduce lore and rules to this dumb world full of fish people and rock men.

Zelda holding back Ganon for 100 years while Link has an extended spa day makes her tougher than any version of Link.

He was still a selfish monster whose justification was simply that he liked the poo poo other people had and so decided to steal it, after which he corrupted everything declared himself Demon King, and ruled as a cruel tyrant. The reason the King and Ganon were meeting in Ocarina was to bring the Gerudo into the fold, which would improve their lot in life, but Ganon was planning on just uspuring the King rather than use the offered help.

MonsterEnvy posted:Hope Darknuts are in the new game. They were one of the big original Zelda enemies missing and I felt like we needed a more elite enemy between Moblin and Lynel. I was gonna say Bokoblin Riders were the inbetween step but actually Silver/Golden Bokoblin archer riders are the biggest sunavitch in the game. I can beat Golden Lynels without taking a hit or using any Sheikah/Champion power but I cannot beat the machinegun Silver/Golden Bokoblin archer riders in a fair fight. They hit with 99% accuracy and lead you harder than the Octoroks. I always end up Stasis-ing them off the horse from afar and kill them before they get a chance to get back.

That's only the very end where everything he just worked towards is taken from him and he loses his mind. Prior to that he's not the typical Ganondorf that just wants to enslave the gently caress out of the world and rule over it. Isn't his whole mission just to bring Hyrule back from being under the waves?

Windwaker Ganondorf has sympathetic qualities. That's not the same as being a sympathetic character overall. He's still cruel and doesn't care what evil things he has to get what he wants, but he is unique in that he actually explains his reasons and you can understand them and feel a bit sorry for him. And then stab him in the head and turn in to stone, because gently caress him he still deserves it.

To be fair he does raise the sword to end Link, I think, but Tetra jumps in. WW Ganondorf feels like Thanos, he's not out to kill you because that won't help achieve his goal, but if you get in his way he has no problems killing you.

Meallan posted:3) It would mean that Zelda finally got some agency and doesn't get kidnapped and trapped yet again, which has been a huge disservice to her character over the years and frankly the *one* thing that feels bitter to me in botw and in the zelda franchise. She technically gets some agency in BotW; she chooses to head back to Hyrule Castle and hold Ganon down until Link recovers, but that still leaves her stuck in one place unable to do anything but occasional voices-in-Link's-head, so it's not really an improvement.

Runcible Cat posted:You can get outfits from previous games from the amiibos; OoT version, Wind Waker version etc.  e: actually, speaking of amiibos and HD ports there's been "rumors" about HD Twilight Princess & Wind Waker on switch literally since the switch was released, but the most recent "leak" might have some truth to it - I've been trying to get a Wolf Link amiibo at a non-bullshit price for a while now, with no luck because they were pretty much only sold with TPHD. But I was just able to buy one from Best Buy? So there might actually be some truth to the rumors this time, if they're re-releasing new copies of it. of course, it's equally likely that they found one under a warehouse shelf and just stuck it on the website, but hey, a girl can dream Blaziken386 fucked around with this message at 09:50 on Jun 14, 2019 |
