Why do feminists like Anita complain about zelda not being playable or being a cliché damsel?
Zelda was the main/only playable character in Wand of Gamelon.
She was integral to the gameplay in Spirit tracks as she possesses the phantoms to help link climb the tower of spirits.
She shoots ganon with the light arrows in Twilight Princess.
She shoots ganon with the light arrows in Wind Waker and was a fucking pirate.
She becomes sheik, teaches link all the teleportation songs, defends link 1v1 against Bongobongo, and gives link the light arrows in Ocarina of Time.
The only zelda game where zelda does absolutely nothing that is actually trope ridden and cliché is Zelda II, but that's done obviously/ in jest. the game is literally rescue sleeping beauty: the game.

People complain because for a title character her importance to the series never really amounts to much despite very few exceptions (the ones you just named). It's frustrating because it's something Nintendo can easily fix but really don't (or can't) do for whatever excuse they can give.

Honestly, I dont think any of the nintendo girls are guilty of anything indicative of patriarchy or misogyny. Except Candy Kong, who is literally Donkey Kong's slut ex-girlfriend who ran off with funky kong, but you dont see any gamer journalists complaining about how Candy Kong being an actual slut is misogynistic.

Of course they aren't, they're indicative of having simple and straightforward stories common for the time.
If you say something's hateful enough times though I guess it's true. It's like Bloody Mary or something but with baseless paranoia.

>Wand of Gamelon
Wasn't made by Nintendo and it sucked so hard barely anyone's played it.
>possesses the phantoms to help link climb the tower of spirits/gives him light arrows in Ocarina of Time
Yeah, making the man do all the work since she can't do it I guess.
>Shoots light arrows
Bows are the typical girl weapon. Yes yes I know, they require great strength to use in real life, but nobody takes a bow user seriously in media. Look at Legolas; he's the most badass bow user ever and he's still a fruit.
>defends link 1v1 against Bongobongo
When did this happen?

>Nobody take now users seriously.
Don't even pretend that Rambo and Hawkeye don't exist nigga.

Before shadow temple, there is a cutscene where bongo bongo escapes from the bottom of the well.

>Hawkeye
Are you kidding me? You're looking to convince be with the biggest joke of the Avengers?
>Rambo
I'm sure when everyone thinks of how badass Rambo is, they're thinking of him holding his bow, rather than a huge gun.

Wait, you mean the scene where she's standing in front of a well and then gets grabbed and knocked unconscious?

Wind Waker is literally the only legit taco. I don't care if you're a bigot against Mexicans or not, Taco Bell is fucking shit and you should feel like shit if you like it.
