I'm not sure how I feel about that. Link's motivation comes from saving his sister and avenging her, the obligation to save the world is stated but not really SHOWN. As far as the Hylian people in the world are concerned, Link isn't really a hero at all. The Koroks really just see Link as "that guy that went and got Makar out of the Forbidden Woods", he didn't really save them all or anything. As much as that's weird, I don't think I'd really say that's a bad thing. Whatever people were aware of, the world was indeed threatened. If anything, that almost works as a better motivation, since you get to see the daily lives that would be destroyed if you fail. Though, comparing it to something like MM, where everyone knows the world's in danger and you get to see people react to it differently (I actually saw an opinion piece likening it to the world's response to Covid, particularly noting the people that deny there's any danger at all), that does offer more depth and room for interesting worldbuilding. --- This is my signature.
