It’s intuitively obvious. Tetra founded a kingdom and her descendant sits on the throne, Link’s descendant works on a fricking choo-choo. Royals don’t work blue collar jobs in the shipping industry.
I always assumed ST Link was descended from Aryll. That would still make him Zelda’s cousin, but it would explain the lack of royal status. Plus it makes the romance between ST Link and Zelda super hot.
Yeah what were they thinking with the original release of WW. The HD version shows it's aesthetic couldn't reach it's full potential until the HD era was around
It was an experiment with HD development because that's where Nintendo was in 2013. Also, they thought to band-aid the problems of the original and make a version that objectively plays better.
original will always be there, preserved forever either on original hardware, or emulation. Might as well go for something new and different if you're going to make the effort to rerelease
Even if it was just padding I thought it was a pretty good way to get the player to explore the world and take advantage of the setting like you're hunting treasure. I just wish their were a few more proper big islands with towns or people on them because by the time you get to the triforce hunt you've already seen most of what the world has to offer
soul vs soulless
Looks better
I don't see the problem with it
much better than just lazily porting the game over
Should have kept the cell shading on the hair.
Everything else is an improvement.
>facial features look like plastic stickers
>improvement
Only on rare occasions, and that's just the consequence of fricking with the lighting. On the bright side, the game has some kickass shadows
Obligatory reminder that Spirit Tracks implies Link and Tetra never hooked up
Sauce?

>implying royals don't fight over power all the time and ST Link isn't from the degenerate offshoot of the family

Spirit Tracks isn't canon and neither is the Legend of Korra.
HD has its moments of beauty but still the original vision is still the most pure
>IS THAT BLOOM??? AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Worst, some people insist on calling the HD version "cell shaded"
>what if we remove what made the original special in the first place?

Wind Waker is the most loved Zelda on Ganker and I’m ok with that
Windwaker is my favorite zelda game.

This filters the dopamine-addicted zoomer.
Still coping hard about how everyone would rather play a rushed out romhack made under a year instead of WW huh
Yep, zoomies like you.
the only people who complain about this are speedrunners who hate having to wait 0.01 seconds for anything

Probably one of the worst cases of "missing the point" in gaming history.
CRINGE! SPOILER YOUR CRINGE ARTSTYLE NEXT TIME
HD version is the better looking game by far. But if I hadn't played it myself, I would definitely be shitting on it
Nintendo struggling with the overuse of bloom and not managing the shading color palette (Shadows with blue tint) is what went wrong.
