I feel so smug knowing there's so many articles loathing his explanation.
>>341433746
these Marxists who don't allow any independent creative vision, everything must be assimilated into their politics.
let talk seriously about this game
anybody had a strong phantom pain feeling? or it's just me?
>>341433318
Shit answer. You could gender bend the other two.
Real answer is Nintendo is too afraid to mess with the recipe.
>>341434931
*gender swap
>>341434931
How would being female mess with the recipe outside of you being forced to play as a weaker character?
>>341435058
>females
>weaker sex
>in Hyrule
>>341434931
>dominant musclegirl Ganon
>>341435110
Thats 100% true, this isn't uncharted where women could beat up the pussy MC.
>Mess with the balance of the Triforce
How?
Last I checked, the Triforce was dictated by the blood in your veins, not the thing between your legs.
>devs now have to explain why character x is gender y
>>341435613
When was it dictated by the blood in their veins?
It was dictated by one being a reincarnation of Hylia, one being Link, and the other being a descendant of Demise
>>341435613
>balance
>two dudes and one girl
I don't see how that's balance
Balance would be if one of them had a fat futa fuckpole and a tight pussyBut which one?
>>341435613
>female link gets triforce of strength
>women
>strength
>>341433318
More importantly, why do people feel the need to turn a male character into a female for no reason? I'm convinced this is a loud minority of hentai faggots
>>341435881
None of those 3 imply or dictate a sex
Why are gender politics so heavily engraved into video games of all fucking things
>>341435783
>this is how much SJWs have infected the game industry
>>341436175
They do, Hylia is a girl, Link is a boy, and Demise's only descendant is Ganon.
>>341436181
Its not gender politics
I just want to play as a cute girl
/v/ is apparently too gay for that now
A bunch of fucking retards had inflated expectations for no reason, and now they throw a tantrum. It's fucking pathetic.
We need another world war.
>>341436181
Because /pol/ infected /v/ and they literally can't ignore things or they implode
Based Japs not giving a shit.
>>341436307
Fuck off retard. Plenty of shitty anime games for you to choose from.
>>341433318
So make a hot ass female Ganondorf for a bizarro world spinoff.
>>341435613
It is. However, because of Skyward Sword, it's now canon that every Link is a direct reincarnation of the original Link and so is always born male and every Zelda is a direct reincarnation of Hylia and so is always born female.
>>341436464
Why?
>>341436378
>/pol/ infected /v/
when will this newfag meme end? /v/ has always hated stupid shit in video games and the latest stupid shit involves social justice.

Dude, Impa could bench press Jabu Jabu.
>>341436443
Why would you want to pretend you're a gender you're not?
Why should we force video game characters to be genderswapped just for the heck of it?
>>341434931
>Real answer is Nintendo is too afraid to mess with the recipe.
If that was the case BotW wouldn't exist.
Where are the DUDE WHY NOT HAVE FEMALE MARIO retards?
Oh wait, they barely exist.
Almost like this all revolves around a tickle in your wee-wee, or mentally ill fetishists wanting to self-insert so they go another day without suicide.
Fetishfags ruin everything they touch.
>people getting this anally frustrated because Link isn't gender swapped
>when the whole reason girls even like Zelda games in the first place is they like playing as a androgynous elf boy who may or may not fulfill their yaoi or /ss/ fantasies
And if there was a female option there would be just as many complaints that it taints the spirit of the series
>>341433318
Why did you make me click twice to give Kotaku a pageview?

Really. Watch the streams. All the Treehouse sluts are sopping for Link the entire time.

True
>and so is always born male
[citation needed]
>>341436865
This. Plus I can imagine these sjw freaks bitching even more if female link was a thing.
>ugh violence against women
>ugh she's sexualized
>REEE FUCKING SHITLORDS SHE DOESNT LOOK LIKE A REAL WOMAN
>>341436976
Western women in general are just very entitled.
source: jap/korean halfie that had to spend time with them (never again)
>>341436976
It's not women. It's tranny scum and other fetishists.
Someone post the chart.
Females like Link because they can rub their vag thinking about him getting dominated by Ghirahim, or write shitty fanfiction.
>>341437081
Link isn't a title anon.
>>341433318
you just have to make Zelda a prince
>>341435206
Yeah, it isn't like Gerudo capture Link in OoT or anything.
>>341437081
It's literally the spirit of Link being born into a new body, so he is always male because his spirit is male.
>>341437064
>>341437198
Yeah but then they would complain about you doing the bidding of an 'opressive' male. Or something similarly retarded
>/v/ glad they cucked themselves out of femlink
Grats. Stuck it to the SJWs. Won the internet battle.
Was prepared to draw some good new femlink porn while the internet went crazy. Nevermind then.
>>341437229
He rekt their shit after too
STOP MESSING WITH JAPANESE DEVELOPERS
THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE SAFE
>>341435110
>>341437229
Gerudo is an annexed state and isn't a part of Hyrule.
>>341437183
Okay...?
>>341437268
Why would a spirit even have a sex?
>can't play as a cute girl
Wow, way to make me not care about the game at all.
>>341437426
Because the spirit is of Link not of Linkle.
>>341437306
This is fucking disgusting, why is nobody calling these shitheads out on sexism? Men aren't objects, fucked up wrongthink like that is NOT ALLOWED in 2016.
>>341437426
>Why would a spirit even have a sex?
I don't know, but that's what it says in the game. We can argue the philosophy all we want, but it won't change what it said in the game.
>>341436926
>Why would you avoid promoting your enemy?
Why do you think?
>>341437340
Draw porn of linkle then faggot. It's not too hard to imagine what a female link would look like. I'm pretty sure the tears of nu males and tumblr cunts is more delicious than rule 34 porn which already exists
>>341433746
It doesn't really make sense, so naturally. How can something with three pieces be gender-balanced either way, unless Zelda has got something to hide under that dress?
Why not just say it doesn't match their creative vision for Link? I think people would be much happier to accept that.
>>341437557
Did it literally say "this is the male spirit of the male hero who is always definitely male"?
>>341434931
Fuck off, links a dude, I don't want a female link especially right now because then they would just be like the rest of this weak ass world bending to this retarded gender equality shit
Link is a male character.
>OMG FUCKING TRIGGERED
Grow up.
>>341437742
No, you pedantic fucking retard, but it said Link's spirit will be directly carried down through time by the gods, and so far we've yet to see that Link will ever be different in the slightest because even each body he's born into is an exact clone of the original.
>>341436307
Atelier games still exist
>>341437981
>No, you pedantic fucking retard, but it said Link's spirit will be directly carried down through time by the gods
Right, which I never denied.
I was just having trouble recalling the part where it said that meant he was always a guy.
>>341435613
Why should a male character become a girl?
Bonus points for not using non-arguments such as [CURRENT YEAR], 'why not?', and equality.
>>341437981
>because even each body he's born into is an exact clone of the original.
Uh... huh.
I think you might want to get contacts or something.
>>341437981
>exact clone of the original
>different hair colors
You can't cite a source and then just make shit up. The line you are talking about doesn't imply cloning or gender in any way.
>>341433318
>if we create a game with princess peach what would mario do?
Say you don't want to do it, don't be a faggot.
>>341433318
You don't even have to make it canon cuckamura, just add it as an option, Link looks gay and feminine as fuck anyway.
Women are weak and could never save the world. Face reality, SJWs.
>>341437073
>book of sheikans is the iDROID
OH MY GAWD
>>341436307
This. It's fucking annoying, there's actually 3 sides but 2 of them are similar at what they want. Which is playable female characters. But one of them is retarded SJWs.Same with /u/.
>but muh established character
Link isn't even that good of a character anyway.
Why does anyone want a female Link? Just because the modern Link looks feminine?
I don't even think women would like it if they made a woman version of Link. He fits an iconic niche, and probably wouldn't feel as good if it was a girl running around with a sword and shield making squeaking girly grunts.

This.
See >>341437306.
The only people who want it are trannies and fetishits.
THIS IS LIKE BEING MAD SAMUS ISN'T A MAN
THIS MAKE NO FUCKING SENSE
Western feminists trying to export their culture wars onto Japan is so fucking stupid. Japan's historical relationship with women is so much more balanced and healthy than whatever was going on in the Christian West, especially in the Imperial court and among the high nobility. Women were seen as physically weaker but more emotionally developed than men. Their sensitivity was actually a quality that was highly valued in Japan's nature-venerating culture, which is why some of Japan's most respectable poets have been women.
>>341438501
Because I like cute adventurer girls, especially when there's lots of different armors for them to wear.
>>341438606
Don't forget all the whiny "progressives".
reminder ganon is a pig and NOT a human
>>341438527
I'd rather go play the mainline Musou with custom characters instead.
>>341438734
Play a different game. Link is a male character.
>People ask for femLink
>They create Linkle which is femLink
>People sperg out, they hate her
>Zelda BotW footage
>Hurr, why is not female
Just make up your mind, fuck.
>>341438514
Stop getting offended for other people. Fans were curious, game journalists followed up on that curiosity, the question has been answered, and the world can move on. Except for you.
>>341433318
Aonuma shouldn't have aknowledged this dumbass "criticism", it doesn't fucking matter
>>341437306
>These comments
They're not inherently bad, i mean, fetishizing isn't that much of a big deal.
But i sure hope they haven't made any comments on oversexualized female characters.
>implying they can see hypocrisy
>>341438606
>fetishits.
lol at that typo.
Also what kind of fucking retard would call wanting to see a chick in a video game to wank to a fetish, might as well call porn a fetish.
>>341438734
Fetish retard, opinions disregarded.
A man, a woman and a... trans? Link is a trans male?
>>341438835
People literally want a r63 Link. They don't want Linkle, they want Link as a female.
>>341438826
Why both asking if you're just going to say "play a different game" no matter the answer?
>>341438884
Cute girls is a fetish now?
>>341438835
Different groups. /v/ has grouped all sorts of people under one "SJW" banner, even people who have conflicting ideas.
>>341438514
zelda 2 and the dream island one had jump mechanics
>>341438835
Yeah, I specifically remember seeing people calling Linkle like a Ms. Pac-Man type character and calling her sexist and exploitive. But now they want Link to be female? That will be closer to Ms. Pac-Man than Linkle was.
You can't fucking please these people.
>>341438938
It represents the trinity in the Bible. You have Adam (Link), Eve (Zelda) and the big fat Jew (Ganondorf)
>>341438843
don't accuse him of not moving on when the question comes up regularly in interviews, you bumbling retard
>>341438878
You want to play the game holding your dick instead of actually caring about the world, characters, lore, game, etc.
If not fetishists, then degenerate hormonal teenage monkeys.
If they make Link female, then they would have to censor her. Why do people want a female Link again?
MARXISTS DONT DESERVE TO LIVE

>>341439010
They're all different groups until one group is pissed off, then the rest of them join in together. You can't anger one of them without angering all of them, and that's where all of the contradictions in their logic comes from and why people think you can't do anything without triggering someone.
>>341434931
>Nintendo is too afraid to mess with the recipe.
>this game is the definition of messing with the recipe
Here's another reply faggot, screencap them and put them on your refrigerator
>>341439152
Not him, but I take it you have similar disapproval of attractive non-playable female characters?
>>341439073
The idea is that Linkle isn't Link, but Link is.
It's the difference between the main character and the main character's cute little sister who stands on the sidelines.
>>341438965
>they want Link as a female
Linkle is Link as a female. Down to the name.
>>341433318
they should just make a female link and make her gay so it doesn't interfere with the story
So what was the response from sjws with linkle? Or does it not count because it isnt the MC?
>>341439345
No.
If a character is a female I don't give a fuck. I'll happily jerk off to lewd designs.
But taking a male character and making it female for literally no reason other than "muh dik" or "muh equality" is the height of cancer.
since Link is tied to Sheikas, what if he learns to transform into a girl to stay unrecognized in villages or by some enemies?
>>341439170
You're not actually making sense.
>>341439257
Oh shush, Koei Tecmo gave you Postman Link.
Link has been a male character for 30 years and will always be a fucking male character.
Fuck off gamur gurls, SJWs and you autistic pedo weebs from /a/ that want to turn everything into a cute girl.
>>341433318
I can purchase this game knowing it wasn't tainted by SJWs.
Ty Aonuma
>>341438835
Even if Wild Link was female, they'd still sperg out because "hurr durr y she fit? she doesn't represent the female body at all, durr durr"
Courage isn't a trait you would naturally assign to a woman. It is, and has been historically, a male trait.
I refuse to platy Metroid because Samus is a women.
*Turns Triforce upside down*
There, now it's female.
>>341439473
So it's fine to play the game holding your dick instead of caring about the world and that doesn't make you a monkey, just only if it's to an NPC?
>>341438472
Fuck this opinion.
Go start or support a new IP with a female MC. Don't take something away from someone else.
>>341439036
>>341439245
Minish cap had jumping too I think, but no other 3d games have done it.
>>341438843
You haven't seen the absurd things some people have said in reaction. I'm definitely not gonna "move on" without making fun of them for awhile, don't tell me what to do m8
>>341439301
Or they actually still are all different groups and you've just managed to piss off several.
Why do you need them to be one group? This isn't logical.
>>341439620
People literally went into autism overdrive when linkle was made. The same exact thing will 100% happen if a female link was made.
A very loud minority should be ignored. Throw the crying baby in a crib and they will eventually fall asleep.
C'mon, /v/
Post those reaction fb/tumblr/tweets posts.I'll start with something light.
>>341433318
All these people who have this "why not?" approach to all fantasy are so fucking boring.
>>341437340
No you weren't.
>>341439473
I'll agree with this.
>>341439802
Quit gettin' mad at video games.
>>341439792
Take away... what? The lack of a choice for you to not choose?
>>341439790
>equating NPCs to the main character that you see literally 100% of the time and has been a set character for 30 years.
wew
Also depends on the game. Like Senran Kagura, where the main appeal is life and hometown. That's completely different to LoZ.
The original way Akuma Toriyama imagined Zelda was with three characters, one of them being a girl. Since he invented Zelda, it's his call to make. If he wanted it that way, and still wants it that way? It's going to stay that way.
if Donkey Kong became Dankey Kong and wore a corset instead of a tie, we'd have to accept it because he made him.
>>341439992
You're retarded if you think a gender choice won't have any impact on what the game will be like.
>>341433318
>the balance of triforce needs a dick
good to know
>>341439891
What about the "it might be fun" approach?
>>341439851
Why don't people complain about Mario being male?
Oh wait because it's all about sex appeal. They don't think about anything else.
These scum need to fuck off.
>>341439851
>you will never be this desperate to get laid
>>341439473
why? Pokemon did it and nobody cared despite being at the heights of animash popularity
>>341440101
Yeah, Zelda really is a series steeped in sexuality.
>you will never bring balance to the triforce
>Female hero
when will this meme end
>>341439301
Not really. SJWs are SJWs. And SJWs only care about complaining something, so when they get bored and dont have much to complain about, they complain about each other and eat their own. Thats how it works.
https://youtu.be/KXy8S6EkfJ0
>>341440135
Ah yes I forget that having a penis or vagina can change up how fun a game is. Especially on a character that only grunts.
>>341440276
How would Skyward Sword have worked with a Gender choice?
>>341440135
Link is male.
If you're trying to actually tell a story that has years of canon behind it, then you should treat it with some dignity. Don't just rape it because, hey, it could be fun! You need rules if you are actually trying to tell a story. If it's something retarded like Hyrule Warriors, who cares?
>>341440259
They didn't make a male female, they added a female option with Kris in Crystal as a gimmick. Your character isn't some legendary hero that always shows up to stop evil. It's just a kid who happens to stop evil organizations, that get progressively more powerful as the games go on, from stealing pokemon to changing the landscape of the world to tearing the fabric of reality.
>>341440276
There's plenty of flirting going on, especially the 3D console ones.
>b-but being /u/ is fine too!
Again, fetishists who only think with their dick.
>>341440162
>implying Mario isn't sexy
Guess you're not a partner in Paper Mario
>>341440135
Sort of like giving in to terrorists for the lulz. Things escalate.
>>341440162

>>341433318
>mess with the balance of the Triforce."
While that's bullshit, at least he's telling people off.
Should've just said "Your shit's retarded, go make your own game" though. He can't but should've.
I hope that if ever they do use a female Link it is because it is vital to the actual concept behind the games' story and not just a random inclusion to appease the "we need equality so please change all the genders of characters who are male because that's what the story requires" audience - a.k.a. the "we won't buy the game anyway" audience.
And I hope that, if it ever happens, it's one of the handheld Zelda games and it's developed by Team Ninja.

/u/? The general level of "flirting" in these games is so low it wouldn't even need to be changed between the two to just come off as close friendliness, outside of very specific non-central characters and scenes.
>>341440402
It wouldn't, and presumably wouldn't be a game with one or would have to change dialogue. Most games are not Skyward Sword.
>>341441079
>It wouldn't, and presumably wouldn't be a game with one or would have to change dialogue

Now you're projecting.
>>341440983
>>ugh why isn't link black?
I'm actually surprised they don't ask Aonuma this. I'd love to see what his response would be.
I don't want Link to be a girl, but people were suggesting this Zelda would be Link/Linkle co-op, and I thought that was a really neat idea.
Link would have the sword and shield, Linkle the bow. Co-op puzzle solving is fun.
Really though tumblrites would still be offended at this, somehow. Even if Linkle had the fucking Triforce of Courage they'd be mad that she wasn't Link.
>>341440983
And you do get to play as a female in Zelda. You possess Medli in WW, Midna does shit when you're in wolf form, I think you do something in Spirit tracks and like 90% of the hero roster in Hyrule Warrior is female.
I don't understand. Why does it specifically have to be Link?
>>341440861

This would absolutely happen.
>>341441368
Actually the gender roster in Hyrule Warriors is 50/50 at this time.
>>341441226
I wasn't equating Linkle to terrorism you fucking autists. I thought that only SJWs defeated eric strawman arguments
>>341440958
>'outpost captured'
>>341441368
>Why does it specifically have to be Link?
Because these fucking betas and mentally ill trannies saw fanart of female link and thought: "I want to fuck that", or "I want to be that".

SJWs are never happy. Thats why you should never pander to them or apologize to them, and never ever take anything they say to serious consideration. If you give them the little finger, they take your whole arm away.

I don't get it either. I don't start fucking screaming at my monitor wishing Lara croft was a man. I imagine these people start hyperventilating when only given the option of male/female in games instead of some slider.
Like ugh it's the current fucking year
>>341440387
Oh, like /v/.
>>341441679
do you even talk to people?

>Even if Linkle had the fucking Triforce of Courage they'd be mad that she wasn't Link.
I'd be not mad, per se, but a little miffed.
Not at her not being Link, at Link's role in the game ACTUALLY being diminished and made redundant. I'm never going to understand why letting an OC take over the heroing job is somehow seen as less threatening to the role than the idea that Link could have been born a girl.
>people are actually crying because a male character is a male character
>>341441785
not with bigoted hateful turds like you
>tfw Zelda herself will never get her own game
Fuck Rule63 Link, when are we getting a Zelda game where the MC is actually the character in the title.
>>341441572

Yes, just uncontained and political power. But besides that, just like /v/.

Well, yes, cuckoldry requires you to be in a relationship first, and I doubt that's easy with a tattoo like that.

Zelda was black that one time, when she was Tetra.
>>341442016
I guarantee its not what you think it is.Its ainsley
>>341441945
I cant believe the cdi games are more progressive than modern Nintendo games
>All these post-90's babies who never played the original Zelda games when they came out who all of a suddenly want a female Link
You're the fucking cancer of the videogame industiry. Kill yourself you fucking retards.
>>341441945
Fuck Zelda, when's the Dorf getting his own game?
Anyone who wants a female Link who wouldn't be okay with Samus suddenly being male is an illogical hypocrite.
You're welcome to want it, but understand that if it actually happened, it'd be undermining an established character that's existed in more or less the same form for a very long time.
Pandering to fans is always a recipe for disaster. If you want something in life you have to either luck out and get it handed to you, or else forge it for yourself. Trying to wrangle someones prexisting vision to conform to your trite desires is greedy and insulting.
>>341442441
That'd be pretty awesome. Just being the guy who fucks up the land, but all throughout the game, you know you're going to ultimately fail because the hero would come.
>>341442476
I'd be ok with a male Samus because it would mean Nintendo is actually making a new Metroid game.
>>341442315
>it was ok because it was done in the past
I bet you defend a sexualised samus
>>341442570
they did anon, they did
>>341441945
This.
Either playing as captured Zelda and escaping from the Dorf with a partner game where you play as Link so you get two sides of one story...
... Or in a game where there is no Link or he lost to Ganon or he's gone to Prague for the weekend and shit's going down.
I don't want Super Maria World and I don't particularly want Legend of Zelda: arbitrary gender-change either.
>>341442476
>Anyone who wants a female Link who wouldn't be okay with Samus suddenly being male is an illogical hypocrite.
No. Samus is the same person in every game.
>>341434931

Samus does not reincarnate.
That said, if by "Samus suddenly being male" you mean "there's now a button on the file create screen that I won't press", then yeah, I would not give a fuck.

Thank you based Japanese.

was there ever a case where people got mad because a female person got turned male in media?

Quit gettin mad at someone gettin mad at videogames

Grorious nippon
>>341442016
Nobody actually posts the scary one here.
>>341442893
Which canon has Samus reincarnating?
>>341442894
What about the Polish ones?
>>341442767
FUTA LINK
>>341442739
Link is the same character in every game, along with Zelda and Ganondorf, even if they aren't necessarily the same person.
Rather than make a Zelda game where link is arbituarily changed to be a girl, why not just have one where you play as Zelda? That's a more sensible idea than making such a pointless, left field change.
>>341442893
I get that you might want to disavow Other M but it's still true.
>>341442739
And Link is the reincarnation of the same guy every game.
>>341442991
There is literally no reason to have a canon where Samus is a man.

>musclegirl
that is just fanon thinking
>>341433318
I for one love it when games let me control a cute girl, but female Link makes no sense. He's been a male since forever, why do they suddenly feel entitled to make him genderswapped?
Never change Japan, you have the better female MCs anyway.
>>341442894
>it's only good when Nintendo does it
>Wanting to play as a girl
You're all fucking gay. If I had youre addres I would fucking murder you.
>>341443075
So have him reincarnate as a woman some time.
>>341442767
>this is what SJWs actually believe
>>341443329
>doesn't want to play as a girl
What a faggot, holy shit.
>>341437736
Yeah right, they don't give a fuck. Anyone got the tweets of the deliverance come developer that got some hate cause they aren't including niggers even when he said they want it to be historically accurate and that he consulated historians on it.
>>341443023
>why not just have one where you play as Zelda?
It would be fun if you could have a game where you can play as both in different sections.
>>341443329
>not wanting to be the little girl
What's wrong with you?
>>341443329
Hello Omar. Didn't know they had internet access in hell.
Figures they'd let you on /v/ though.

calm down omar
i just want some nintendo's tits
>>341443116
You could be right. There don't seem to be many people who would enjoy Metroid games any more if there was, though I could be wrong.
What does that have to do with the fact that she doesn't reincarnate and so it couldn't be seamlessly integrated with previous games with a simple "this time, you chose to have Samus born a guy"?
>>341441660
They still would have bitched. I'm glad he stuck to his vision.
You guys are arguing the wrong issue, the problem isn't if a female Link would work or not, it's that these fucking SJWs are considering this a legitimate fucking criticism
>>341436570
how do you think girls feel when they play?

>>341443779
Agreed, I don't give a shit if Link is a boy or a girl but the fact that people legitimately complain about this is blowing my mind.
>>341433318
Just turn it sideways.
