What if Zelda was a girl

Why did it take nearly 40 years and 30 games to get Zelda her own licensed game?

Absolute woman victory.

Why did Zelda look so much better two decades ago? I don't even want to play as Zelda in that oily plastic Minecraft toddler world in the OP pic. Nintendo seems to struggle with modernizing retro graphics. For comparison, Octopath and this Star Ocean remake look so cool.
I mean I get why the new Zelda game needs clear tiles but the art direction could be more exciting.

This is surprisingly good, fun, and cute!

I've been playing EoW recently. The echoes are fun to play around with. Everything is so cute and I love it.

The game is like old 2D Zelda games if they were bad. The funny part is they weren't confident in their echo combat system so they just give you a damn sword lol. The tether mechanic I forget what it's called is so OP too. And the damn star thing that follows you should shut the fuck up.

Misogyny. Patriarchy. White supremacy. Toxic masculinity.

I can't believe they never re-released it, as it looks so good visually.

I think you would've been mad if it was only the sword or echoes. Because the worst thing about Echoes of Wisdom is that you can non-linearly go anywhere to become overpowered from the get go, not the combat. When I replayed it without allowing myself to jump over trees, cliffs and get good echoes at all, it felt so much more like the Minish Cap. Still want to do an echo-only run

I would've been mad if it was sword only because the world and dungeons are worse than old 2D Zelda games. I played relatively on the intended path and I still was not a fan of the whole echo thing. Most of them are straight up garbage, and you're discouraged from experimenting because the menu is one of the worst things ever created. Nintendo really doubled down after people complained about the TotK menu. Ultimately you just use the same couple things over and over until you get new things that are straight upgrades. I will say that the flying tile is really fun, especially when I could summon two of them.
