I want this Link back. A hapless boy thrown into adventure is the best player avatar a game can have.
>>
He should honestly be asian

That's what all Link's are. He's rarely older than 16 in his games and almost always minding his own business when some local asshole forces him to do something about the situation.

Hell BotW Link was the most military trained and on-point link we ever got and he was BTFO and lost his memories so he became a wandering swordsman like all the other Links. It's just the fate of the hero.

As long as he's left-handed I don't care.

is this the thread?

The new Links are all teenagers at the very least. Nobody underestimates modern Link because he's not a dumb short kid running around with a wooden shield. I want to play as child Link again, it's a much more interesting perspective than fujobait anime teenager.

Why are you all so GAY?

>>724359667
Hard agree. There's a whole other level of contrast when you have such a young protagonist in a story. We just don't get protagonists like that anymore. The coming of age trope also hits a lot harder without losing the whimsical aspect of childhood when you're dealing with a character as young as that.

>>724360604
Maybe we'll get that again someday. For now, it seems like they want to milk the sex appeal of twink Link too much.
>>
>>724357408
It's a dumb question. Link is not one character. Some have blonde hair, some have brown hair.
>>
>>724357408
Purple haired. Gigachad ruined timeline link to the past link is best link. Lives in a world that could easily be adapted to be a dark souls game, has literal nothing and still somehow beats full triforce ganondorf. The power of the gods was nothing against the indomitable human spirit.

Only TOTK link beats him since secret stone ganondorf essentially neg-diffed full triforce zelda, and dragon ganondorf is his strongest form.

new shota link game when

Unless it's a spin off or non main game, I really don't see them doing it, unfortunately. Back then, you still had a lot of media pushing for that kind of protagonist since it was all mostly aimed at a younger demographic. Now that companies want to appeal to a wider audience, the characters are aged up too so you rarely get younger protagonists.

Still, would be a lot of fun to see that again. Even if Nintendo doesn't do it, if there's at least more indie games willing to do it, it would be nice

I feel like there's a lot of indie games with child protagonists, but they are usually too wacky and terribly written due to western cartoon influences.

>spin off or non main game
You just know they'd use Toon Link instead of Young Link for that. The latter just fell off completely.

why are there more oot threads than botw threads?

>>724357408
He should be left-handed.

Shota Link from OOT/MM is my favorite iteration of Link, and also one of my favorite video game characters in general. A small innocent male child who all the ladies fawn over becoming a badass warrior by the end is a trope I wish was more common in media.

>>724357408
Light brown, or red.
>>
>>724361776
Because OOT is the better game

He has to prove the superiority of the pure Hylian blood so blonde.

BOTW threads were silently converted into ragebait/engagement farms because the mods couldn't be bothered to moderate them.
OOT threads tend to devolve into such things too.
Be sure to thank Hiro for being such a great host. It's all thanks to him.

>>724361928
I'm going to shit on Fujibayashi's desk if Link is right-handed in the next game.
>but eow
That Link model is flipped from LA Switch, only a wholly new game can decide.
