I had a huge crush on her as a small child.

To be a professional you need a profession, zelda speedrunning is not an profession

No it doesn't look like the Dark Crystal. The dark crystal is whimsical and full of life. The oot remake looks like the Zelda in unreal engine meme. Like the idea that maximum detail is something to strive for.

My dad, a stoic-ass 40 year-old whose favorite Zelda game has been Ocarina since he was a kid, saw the trailer and was completely blown away by how beautiful it looks. People are just so irony-poisoned by Nintendo Hire This Man 'n Focus, M, they can't enjoy a cool thing for what it is!!!

That's a nice way to look at it. I appreciate that film for inspiring the Kyantol, one of my favorite things to come from the Shining series.

hell yea! grass grows, birds fly, and sister? transfem ralsei believers have informed and nuanced opinions about media and art direction

When you put it like that, that makes a lot of sense actually.

Had to find this post again, because this is the vibes seeing the characters in these clips gives me.

Saying this as someone who has issues with the art style: I think Nintendo's big remake kick says more about a future-thinking audience shift than anything else. The kids who were inspired by N64 have grown up. Nintendo is saying, "here's the thing you loved as a kid, updated for YOUR kids."

I agree with everything about the state of the industry, but as a chronic jumpaholic, I am pro adding a jump button to every game. When I learned I could jump on a mount or with rotom in pokemon games for the first time, I joyfully screamed. Let my boy leave the ground!

I think people are just too invested in Zelda and the instinct these days is to treat every remake like it's Disney's Lion King which I find kind of increasingly distasteful since it kind of disregards the creative choices of a ton of artists who gave years of their lives to these things

this post, and the thread it's attached to, kinda helped click into place why i feel so weird about the visual style. it doesn't feel like an evolution or reinterpretation of oot's art style, it feels like it's trying to look like A Remake. bsky.app/profile/head...

Dates on those are all funky, huh? 😂 Still pre-ordered them though. Let’s go!

The backlash itself reminds me of Windwaker. a lot of ppl hated how it looked back than, while for me it was the reason why I bought the cube.

I remember when people went nuts over Wind Waker making Link look like a Powerpuff Girl. I didn't like it either, at first, but the fact that it's the only Zelda game I've ever finished suggests that I must have gotten over it. (And damn was sinking that sword into Ganondorf's skull satisfying.)
