Glen-i Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Impa looks fantastic! She looks more masculine than Link. That's not saying much. Anyway, what's the big deal? So what if Link looks a little feminine, at least they didn't just nick a design of a previous game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what if Link looks a little feminine, at least they didn't just nick a design of a previous game. I don't want a character, who was a big part of my childhood, looking like a tart. Opinions and all that. To be fair they just nicked the design from the Manga, hence the scarf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link just wants to express his feelings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I kinda like Link's design. Better than the Link Between Worlds design. The game's looking pretty good as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnas Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Yeah! More playable characters! I thought the evil witch was Veran for a moment Got my hopes up (She does look a lot like her, though) To be fair they just nicked the design from the Manga, hence the scarf. Which one? I've read a few, but I don't recall any scarf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Which one? I've read a few, but I don't recall any scarf. The Skyward Sword prequel in the Hyrule Historia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen-i Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 The Skyward Sword prequel in the Hyrule Historia. Oh? So would that make it actually official? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Oh? So would that make it actually official? I'm really not sure. I've never taken any of the mangas as canon. They are great reads but the stories are pretty different to the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcubed Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Oh? So would that make it actually official? No it's not canon, none of the mangas are. It's the same as all the other Zelda mangas, just made especially for Hyrule Historia in this case and included as a bonus. Anyway, Link has often had a fairly feminine look about him before. Soul Calibur 2 is one particular example that springs to mind... Didn't stop him being awesome in that game though.

Hero-of-Time Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Never! It's great to see the positive reaction this has started to get across the net. I was already looking forward to it but now I'm even more excited to see a new trailer. Roll on E3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tapedeck Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Link looks fantastic here. Might just be my favourite realisation of him in a Zelda game so far. I'd be happy with Nintendo adopting this approach in the future. It's a perfect mix of cartoony/mature in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 ^ Yeah I had the same thought when I saw that pic (although perhaps getting a bit too far into generic JRPG character territory) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero-of-Time Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Bit too much of a focus on Shia's assets though, in some circles. From Gaf. Few details about the story from Famitsu. Shia, the game’s main antagonist, was in charge of protecting the equilibrium of the Triforce. However, she developed feelings for Link and becomes jealous of his relationship with Princess Zelda. Shia ends up becoming overcome by wickedness. With her two minions Valga and Wizro, she throws Hyrule in a state of chaos. Link is a soldier-in-training in Hyrule Warriors. Famitsu confirms that the chain mail is his soldier-in-training gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
