I don't know about anyone else, but finding all the memories really made this game feel like the legend of Zelda. And by that, I mean that Link has always been the focal point of each incarnation I've played, which makes sense since he is the legendary hero that's destined to always rise to the challenge of fighting Ganondorf. This time around though, Zelda's sacrifice to return the Master Sword to Link really solidified this incarnation as Zelda's legend. I already was a fan of the way they made her character a total geek for ancient technology in Breath of the Wild, but this went a direction I never thought I'd see.
Eels!
not to be a hater but it does drive me insane how so many online conversations are so centered around sidon and yona (and link 😞) and not any of the delicious narratives that totk gave us
like why should we talk about rauru and sonia and their relationship w zelda? why would we talk about zelda and how her relationship w link progressed post calamity? oh are we gonna talk about the sheer insanity that is ZELDA TURNIJG INTOA. FUCKING DRAGON??? no??? shipping discourse over sharks? ok
not to swing a bat at a hornet's nest but it really does feel like specifically mlm ships take precedence in fandom spaces over EVERYTHING else regardless of whether the ship in question actually has like. any canon backing whatsoever. like totk specifically, a ton of the story revolves around zelda, a female character which certain fans notoriously hate for the crime of. being a woman with feelings. like gee i wonder why we all simultaneously decided to ignore the story of this one. i wonder why we really really really want to focus on this random male side character's incredibly minor story instead of the literal titular character of the game. could it perhaps be because some of us are predisposed to ignore and dismiss women in all contexts. could it be perhaps that we don't want to reckon with a woman we didn't like in the last game reclaiming her agency and healing from her trauma and being a positive driving force in the narrative and would rather talk about 2 men and how lame and stupid the woman who dares to exist inbetween them is instead. hmm
but are you this old?
soon you'll see it, see it shinin'! hand in hand, the colors vibrant fleeting beauty isn't silent i know sometimes it really feels that way
