Genuinely this. Yes, the Gerudo are very obviously visually Arabic caricatures...but even OoT (narratively) is not portraying them as straight up evil. They do not steal from the other races, and they only lock up the carpenters and Link for trespassing on THEIR land. (1/2)
I agree that Gerudo being orientalist caricatures is a bad thing obv but the world of Zelda is not euro centric lol. And also the Gerudo are not entirely bad guys in OoT and are straight up good guys in everything since.

Why do y’all keep lying about this? That has not been confirmed and OoTR actually provides evidence that TotK’s founding is in fact the original founding.

like look at this now they’re doing the “GRRRRR WOMEN CANT LOOK UPSET” portion of the discourse, I can’t believe these people expect you to take them seriously, this shit is such a fucking psyop

I must ask once again to those who played the original Ocarina of Time...
WERE THESE THINGS THIS SCARY BECAUSE OH MY GOD THIS IS NIGHTMARE FUEL
I can't imagine being a little kid playing this and seeing these things on my screen good GOD

Is it hard to imagine a future where both formulas combined? Idk why some fans diminished the new (or old) games, it isn't a good look on the fanbase
As someone that has TP as his favorite Zelda and TotK 2nd, I expect the next game to use a mix of formulas.

I'm so grateful that I am able bask in the joy of the Ocarina remake, as someone who is a super fan of the original, and not go into fits of rage over "sword doesn't hit wall anymore"

most of these are nitpicks that literally dont matter though? Pressure plate color? wolfos appearing a second earlier??? half of this shit i didnt even notice and ive played oot64 and 3d like 10 times each

The fact that the Ocarina Remake was made in 3 years with a ~$40M budget is enough reason to say it deserves to win game of the year no matter how good GTA 6 is. This industry has a responsibility to uplift the artists who aren’t laying off thousands of people to get a game made.
You know this is fake because Nintendo don't give a FUCK about Fan backlash 😭
NINTENDO is reportedly in crisis mode over early internal playtests for 'THE LEGEND OF ZELDA' live-action feature film, with corporate executives growing deeply anxious over the massive budget and adaptation fidelity.
One insider warned: "The expectations are astronomical after The Super Mario Bros. Movie. If the live-action aesthetic feels cheap or miscasts Link, it could trigger one of the worst fan backlashes in modern gaming history."
Sony and Nintendo are reportedly desperate for the film to achieve universal critical acclaim, with enormous pressure on the creative team to translate decades of video game prestige onto the big screen
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The post's claims of a Nintendo "crisis" over the Zelda film are unsubstantiated rumor from a self-described satirical account; recent official updates and company briefings show positive commitment with no such issues reported.

People don't understand why people are so amazed by how this game looks.
Most Nintendo fans are multi-platform gamers, and have been at least a couple of gens. So they've seen this level of visual fidelity before.
The point is that you have this level of visual fidelity *with* Nintendo's art design and art styles, which ends up making it look notably better than other company's games with similar detailed visuals.
Showing clips from games like TLOU and GoD doesn't make sense because they straight-up looks less visually striking despite having more technical detail.
The individual details of a game aren't the only thing that determines how good a game looks (surprise surprise).
