Wouldn't that be boring? Wouldn't that completely ignore Zelda being her own character?

the real reason to be angry at that Jason tweet is him calling 3D platformer a niche genre

They just to make Zelda THE LINK (main character that defeats everything and gets celebrated), rather than actually caring about Zelda as an archetype: the heroine that uses Wisdom rather than Power or Courage. Of course, you can argue that there is sexist connotations with this archetype (woman thinks, man acts), but this has been the basis of the franchise and they have showed not having real problem with this. The thing that is annoying is not that I don’t get their point, but that they genuinely want to force Nintendo to change its product even if it makes no sense marketing wise. So they frame it like there is a huge segment of female gamers that are desperate to play as Zelda, rather than they waiting to get their ideas socially validated (in a big shallow way, worse of all). They expect a conservative company as Nintendo to change something by whining enough (while still buying and hyping their products). This is a company that still doesn’t see itself as an entertainment company or even a software one. I sympathize with the sentiment of people waiting a playable Zelda, but not with some disingenuous premises like “there is a huge market waiting” or “there is no reason for Nintendo not to do it as Link with boobs.” ![]() (09-06-2024, 12:32 AM)TylenolJones wrote: the real reason to be angry at that Jason tweet is him calling 3D platformer a niche genreI don’t know man… The game is probably not a system seller, but PS5 owners who are desperate for a quality first party game will probably purchase this, especially after seeing how impressive the tech looks on it.

I always imagine that stuff like Bowsette or Link crossdressing in BOTW made a lot of Nintendo executive angry, specially because both have clear sexual connotations within their fandoms. Again, this is the same company that thought that Paper Mario companions made Mario lore to complicated, so they are concerned about this characters as brands rather than evolving entertainment stories.
So yeah, they definitely want that Zelda plays differently than Link because Link is, let’s say this with a little of cynicism, the “breadwinner”. The name of the franchise is not Zelda but the Legend of Zelda, because Zelda is designed as the excuse for the hero to go on adventure. In that regard, I would sympathize more with Dice and others if they actually tried to change this or make something about if they cared that much… rather than just complain about it and boosting scumbags like Lara Kate Dale that make more IRL damage to feminist causes than Zelda not playing like Link. ![]()

I was going to point to the last guardian, but then I looked up the concord employee count and they had 170 people working on it. Astro bot only had 60 over a three year period so yeah can’t do worse than concord. ![]()

Like seriously this might be the only next gen game that is truly pushing hardware in a very positive way. It'll sell like any other non-Mario platformer. Lack of options on PS5 won't make much of a difference because everyone with a PS5 has already come to terms with the lack of games and has access to other platforms. The PlayStation crowd just isn't going to buy a 3D platformer en masse. Not like the Nintendo crowd anyway. ![]()
