>link gets 1000 women lusting over him ingame
>still decides to ignore them for zelda whom doesn't care about him in the slightest

>doesn't reward him with sex
How do you know?
i know right? look at this loser haha, it would be so funny if you kiss him. He's such a joke that it won't be gay haha.
Go away
't reward him with sex
First of all, just because they don't frick on-screen, doesn't mean they don't frick. It's strongly implied that their relationship is romantic. Second, why was sex literally the first reward you thought of?
She also stole his house.
Why would she need a secret room if she's the only one living there?
The better question is why was all evidence of Link's original ownership of that house erased?
There's two places at the table and one bed. Don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to see the implications.
Is "because he could" not a good enough reason.
Whatever, you're determined to believe that Zelda is a sociopathic b***h. She literally sacrificed her sanity for Link, but apparently that's not good enough for you. Nothing ever will be, I think.
You only want to see the worst in people, don't you?
>BOTW Zelda is a complete moron that runs away from her real job, causing everything to fall to pieces
>Resorts to an extreme action to mitigate the situation until Link can fix it
>Does it again in TOTK
Every previous Zelda was able to use their sealing power because all of them loved their respective Links and their Hyrules, while BOTW/TOTK Zelda is too far up her own arse. BOTW/TOTK Zelink is the least compelling version, despite how much evidence there is.
Because Zelda is a stupid fricking woman who had to get rid of Link's badass swords in his mancave for her gay Live Laugh Love signs
Not that guy but the actual reason I imagine is because "the chase" is always the part of romance stories that audiences tend to resonate with the most. It's why there's so many romantic movies, books, comics, etc. that focus on how John and Jane got together but not so much about what John and Jane did while they were dating/married.
It's used as bait to keep stringing people along if anything. For instance, everyone and their grandma is aware that Mario and Peach are pushed as being a couple but Nintendo won't ever come out and say it officially because they can keep using "Will THIS be the game where Mario and Peach become OFFICIAL?" like they did with Super Mario Odyssey. It's for marketing more than actual story telling, because if they were to officially become a couple, they lose on selling that "chase" element.
I get the chase is an important part of it, but a chase that leads nowhere is just a waste of time. The conclusion to the chase is just as important as the chase itself. Also unlike with Mario, most of the Zelda games are soft reboots (or distant sequels/prequels if you go by the timelines) of the setting with a new Link and new Zelda every time, so setting them up as a couple in one game has little impact on others, it's why we could have another girl completely sideline the princess in TP.
At the end of the day it's just Nintendo being Nintendo (aka morons) for the sake of it. What gets me is how many people are perfectly ok with biting the same bait over and over.
yep, (almost) no one cares about romance once people are hitched. That's when it becomes "boring."
Nintendo did just the right mix of "oh tehe, they might be living together" in TOTK to get people talking about it without saying in-game that they are a couple. It's genius, really.
If only they gave remotely enough of a shit with the story.
"something something expecting a good Nintendo story is like expecting a good story in a porno." except for the fact that the Zelda series tries to pride itself on having totally interesting lore and shit when (nearly) every game is set in a new iteration of Hyrule and Zelda fans are in denial that the Zelda series is basically just the super Mario universe in terms of the depth of lore. (AKA there is no lore)
I feel bad for the poor bastards that genuinely believe Nintendo still cares about "dah tamlahne" and will write twenty-page essays about how BOTW/TOTK take place in the Skyward sword timeline or whatever because there's an easter-egg sword you can get or because Zelda vaguely says something about a hero from the sky in a cutscene in BOTW.
I guess I don't have room to talk because I actually liked BOTW's story for what it was, but the only Zelda games I've ever played are BOTW and TOTK. I actively dropped TOTK due in part because of the story. I got fed up with the temple cutscenes being the same, the glyphs being in moronic locations often with late-stage memories next to early ones, the terrible plot in the memories (it feels both too short and too long somehow), and how no one important (but Impa) acknowledges that Zelda is a dragon and that there's a fake Zelda. Looking back it feels like I wasn't supposed to interact with the glyphs until after the Hyrule Castle fight.
Cont.
BOTW's story wasn't amazing, but it was clear it was built for being found out of order, with the only big memory being the absolute last one you unlock. It's why they have the King and Impa explain the beginning and end of the story to you. Nearly all of BOTW's memories are adding additional characterization to Zelda, the Champions, and Link's relations with them.
TOTK tries to tell a mystery story with dramatic scenes that can be viewed in any order, potentially spoiling major plot elements. It doesn't help that none of the characters are interesting. They either come across as completely moronic (Zelda/Rauru) or are there for such a short amount of time that they basically have no characterization outside of one trait. Mineru (Smart) Sonia (Kind) Ganondorf(Evil).
I had a moment of "what the frick am I even playing this for" when I realized I hated the plot, I disliked building, I was frustrated with the ingame (non-cinematic) story, I hated the sage abilities, I was annoyed with how little Hyrule changed, I was disappointed that we learned basically nothing about the Zonai, I was bored with the empty Depths and copy and pasted Sky Islands, and fighting almost the exact same enemies. To the point I stopped playing right before the Ganondorf fight beneath the castle because I was just bored and couldn't be arsed.
Perhaps I'll come back in a few months or years and just go in expecting BOTW but with random shit littered around and with an okay building mechanic slapped onto it. Probably just coping, but I feel like their original plan of it just being a DLC probably would have worked better because TOTK feels super fricking padded. Was it really worth 6+ years of development just to have BOTW again in a different physics engine where you can slap 15 wheels onto a concrete slab and have it still control decently well while the switch melts in the dock?
Also, I am so sorry I forgot to make that image smaller.
>all this text to justify nip autism mixed with corporation greed
Lmao
What can I say? I browse Ganker for a reason.
I wish dolphins were real, bros.
Nobody cares what order the Mario games are in, but the Zelda games do have some lore and Nintendo did bother making a timeline before TOTK.
They should have distanced themselves from the old lore if they didn't want to deal with it anymore, not the moronic stuff that TOTK is.
Also, why did Link purchase a new house near Tarrey Town?
ToTK is kind of a poorly written piece of shit when you think about it. There's no reason for all Shiekah tech that's been there for millenia to disappear entirely without a trace. Nobody remembers Link at all for no fricking reason either. He built Tarrey Town. It's literally impossible for the town to exist without him having met everyone there. Yet everyone acts like they've never met Link. Stupid shit.
totk was a cashgrab after the huge sucess of botw, imagine just release the same game with 1 new level and 1 new game mechanic, It's just botw dlc, nothing more. also absolutely souless with garbage plot
why totk flop
DLC for Wii U game released in 2023. All Wii Us are currently collecting dust for good reason.
>Google trends
lmao you'll be posting Twitch views next XDD
TOTK has way better competition in 2023 than BOTW had in 2017
't reward him with sex
you know they fricked like rabbits after the kingdom was saved
AIslop aside, these c**ts are either so dense that they can't tell that two people are a couple unless it's unsubtly spelled out with small words and large print, or they genuinely expect a family-friendly franchise to delve into hardcore pornography. Either way, they're morons.
exactly
>supposedly the reincarnated counterparts of ancient lovers destined to be together
>he's her knight who literally risks everything to save her
>not even allowed to hold hands or hug or show any kind of affection openly
Can you really blame people for being fed up with Nintendo's autism? why is there even a need for subtlety? why can't they just openly like one another, what exactly is wrong with that, is love inappropriate for kids now?
The truth is that there is genuinely no reason at all for Zelda and Link or even Mario and Peach to not be shows as proper couples in their games when it's obviously intended to be the case.
>why is there even a need for subtlety?
Why do you need everything to be spelled out without subtlety? Have you never heard of subtext? Are you a grade schooler? Can't handle anything more complex than Barney & Friends?
Maybe instead of trying to insult me you could practice some reading comprehension then re-read my post. But to help you out I'll ask again: what is the need for subtlety in this case? why do you believe they have to resort to subtext in this particular instance in a series and title that are very direct with their storytelling and characterization?
Now please answer the question instead of deflecting.
>Now please answer the question instead of deflecting.
Frick you, I'm done arguing with a toddler.
>cannot answer one simple question and continues to deflect with insults
I'm starting to think Zelda is some kind of religious cult with how insanely defensive it's fans are.
You're trans
not sure how bad it actually is versus what people say on the internet but apparently japanese culture is super no no towards showing affection in public which means Nintendo is even more austic about not showing it
I mean like handholding and kissing in public is seen as "too much" kind of autism. somewhat related but it reminds me how people on twitter/youtube are outraged by mildly attractive female characters but will then turn around and call Link a "hot frickable twink" and shit like that two seconds later
I'm dense I meant to respond to this comment with this
Sex is not "a reward". Mentally ill people think like that.
Right! Yeah, a hero does deserve some kind of reward for saving the world, and yeah, he already has a knighthood and enough duplicated diamonds to singlehandedly crash Hyrule's economy (with no survivors!) but there's gotta be other ways to reward him. Like a big statue.
A wholesome love story between a white heterosexual male and female is enough to make western developers fart blood into their troony diapers
>reward him with sex
true sex is not a reward just a part of a relationship. blowjobs are a reward
>doesn't reward him with sex
they sleep in the same bed
they shouldn't they Paya was clearly the better choice
They were fricking like rabbits in the years they were living with each other in the same house.
nuLink is a massive cuck.
>makes Link do all the dirty work
She doesn't. She held Ganon back for 100 years then lobotomized herself for 10000 all for Link
>doesn't reward him with sex
She did
>takes all the credit for saving the world
She doesn't
>takes the game title despite being an NPC
I agree she should be playable
Sex is not a reward
women owe me sex
that person simultaneously looks like a woman, a transgender dude with a filter, and a 13 year old boy at the same time
the sad thing is that person is probably completely serious. I thought the whole "sidon fricking link" thing was a joke but there are really those kind of people and they were really mad when TOTK showed sidon being married to his neon green wife and it's stated like 15 times how they are married and love each other seemingly just to piss those "people" off
10/10 game for that alone
this is mental illness in a very late stage I can't believe we don't collectively force people like this to take treatment as a society

I've seen the phrase a few times but the original thread and even the pic referencing it I have never seen until now. I figured the "may you get caught" was just shitposting pasta and not actually referencing a specific vid.
Jesus, who rambles on that long for a measly shitpost?

If she hasn't personally emptied that stamina wheel it's only because she's been too busy plotting the perfect ambush.
Link has 3 stamina wheels, while Zelda only has two stamina wheels.
> also canonically exclusively fricks bokoblin
Why Nintendo refuses to make Zelda fully playable in a mainline zelda game? It's because the shitty CD games which was the first time she was playable? They can just bury that and claim the first time Zelda was fully playable was in the successful Hyrule Warriors series.
All the more reason Spirit Tracks Zelda remains to be beat near 15 years later.
