There are questions about OOT remake’s hyper-detailed clothing and items, vis-à-vis the smooth-looking characters. As I suggested before, it seems to be inspired by the ceramic figurines and toys. Vintage porcelain dolls have elaborate clothes and sometimes human hair wigs. May be uncanny to some.

Reminder that it is perfectly fine to enjoy a game purely for its own sake, as a self-contained experience, while also letting others appreciate it as an interconnected story.
I’m sure many people enjoyed The Wind Waker even though it was their first time with the series; to name an example~

I’ve genuinely witnessed a number of arguments in my time in the Zelda community that people who like the lore take the fun out of it.
Make no mistake, everyone should enjoy having fun with the series on their own terms. If you’re upset that someone is basing an argument in the real of the real

Always find it amusing some claim the era is a result of them rejecting continuity altogether when it is filled to the brim with continuity references which would not work otherwise.

While I am already on it, here is another thing to just think about…

In truth, the Kokiri are also Hylians. THEY TRACE THEIR ROOTS BACK TO A TIME WHEN THE HYLIANS WERE FIRST DEVELOPING THEIR CIVILIZATION, building cities and relying on a less natural way of life. The Kokiri decided to distance themselves from the Hylians, exiling themselves to the forest to make their own way of life closer to nature.

It’s 8:25a on Sunday morning. We are less than a week after the Ocarina of Time remake trailer dropped and I see other YouTube theorists are already trying to manufacture consensus that the remake isn’t canon.

Friend mentioned how there's not a discussion about whether 2D Metroid is worth full price this time
Everyone just agree Dread was worth it or is there a different factor

It’s really something to be a person that uses evidence from games and source materials to theorize about Zelda. Nobody pushes back when someone comes out of left field with a headcanon not based in reality. When you provide sources and citations, everyone comes out of the woodworks to tell

The Japanese essentially says:
"Developed to complement the Gerudo‘s traditional fighting style of wielding a one-handed sword and shield, this metal is prized not only by soldiers, but by travelers as well."

I love when Nintendo of America makes up lore:
片手剣と盾という ゲルド族の基本的な戦闘スタイルに合わせて進化した 金属製の盾兵士だけではなく 旅人にも重宝されている
The metal shield evolved to match the Gerudo tribe's basic fighting style of one-handed sword and shield.It is valued not only by soldiers but also by travelers.
