KillerSlaw 09/23/19 11:15:44 PM #48:	I never really realized how much I disliked Aonuma lead Zelda games until this topic lmfao Like I'm sitting here like "I really didn't like Wind Waker at all." but then I realize I also didn't really like Twilight Princess much at all, and I didn't even play Skyward Sword... Kind of has me worried for BOTW sequel. --- "Wait a minute...If I ever get a hold of you, I will thank you for showing me the futility of human endeavor." <cite>KillerSlaw posted [p:927857915] in Remember w...

They use different Japanese artstyles depending on what look they're going for. It was never some ultra serious franchise that could only suit gritty artstyles. Even before Windwaker there was Link's Awakening. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:927858721] in Remember w...

industrializeit 09/23/19 11:59:10 PM #52:	I wanted to post a side by side comparison off that first reveal and after, but couldn't find that. Google searching is so shity for specific things like that. Link originally had no eyebrows and it looked fucking terrible. Nintendo changed his look a bit, idk if it was just adding eyebrows. Definitely looked better after --- I personally like Link as a Rugged Shaman Swashbuckler more than Resourceful Gadget Boy. That's why Zelda II is one of my all time favorites, ...(see quote) <cite>industrializeit posted [p:927859490] in Remember w...
