Title: should Link be the hero in every zelda game?
Post by: rasnaragath on September 10, 2005, 05:50:01 PM
In every zelda game Link has been the hero....I am not complaining about it but the story of this game can be much more exploited don't you agree, 'till now most of nintendo's classic characters, Mario, D.K., Fox, Samus, are world famus but I think despite Mario franchise is the most pro ::)fitable one Zelda can be called "State of the Art" in all senses, so mi question would be : What would happen if Shigeru and Eiji, explore a little bit; I know that if another 10 new Zelda games are made with the classic style       ( BGM, game play, characters) people would keep buying them, but remenber when Ocarina fisrt came out everybody was exited about the graphics but they wandered: will the game play change drastically?
or the "feeling", but fortunate for us it did not on the countrary, same with Metroid, in this last case was a complete change and it was good, so are we really never going to get enough of Link, how about descendants of Link as wizards in an entirely RPG game, or  a Zelda game of her own?.

TP will be the last Zelda as we know it, so the next 10 won't be like the past Zeldas. But it won't be Zelda any more if Link isn't the Hero.

All right, all right it was just a thought, but Evilslayer will agree that the feeling of the game has been "passed down" throught all the Zelda games preserving that "something", of course all of them are different among each other, but the style remanains, as a completly original game which,despite the hero has been the same through 14 games, we keep playing it and 'till now I haven't heard a person complaining about it.
I'm new arond here too and I think I've made a couple. ha ha ha

A thought I've had for some time is that they could have a large interactive RPG and name it Chronicle of Hyrule. You should be able to choose things such as race, tribe/town, name, class, etc.

Also, for lazy people, there could be a huge list of characters (both old and new) that the player can pick between. Link, Zelda and Ganon should be included.

i see what you mean dark zelda. like in a certain part of the game you get to controll zelda and her magic. that would provide some difference for it. however
link IS THE HERO plain and simple.

i know link is the hero, im just saying it would be an interesting turn in events if zelda saved the hero of time. ( i made a comic series called the quest for the hero of time for my site, but i cant upload it yet) just thought it might be cool to control zelda.

another reason he is the hero in every game is because he is the holder of the tri force of courage. no random dude could do that without a piece of the tri force. good question tho ;)

In one of the CDI games, Wand of Gamelon, you were the princess, though I think the game was said to be awful, though I've never had the chance to play  it.

i recon instead of link rescuing the sages- u should control each of the sages working together trying to break link out of ganons dungeons. after hes rescued- then link can be controlled. (3d graphics)

if they had to get rid of any character in Zelda i think it should be Zelda Because All she does is get captured while links out busting his A$$ trying gain a rep
im just saying that link deserves the Most respect and Stay in the game 4 ever
Title: Re:should Link be the hero in every zelda game?
Post by: Evilslayer on February 23, 2006, 03:54:41 AM
Zelda has to stay just as much as Link. The games are NAMED after her. Besides, there's only ONE game where your main goal is to rescue Zelda.

There's already been two games like that and they were horrrrrrible. :P And I just don't like the idea of the Princess saving the Hero.
Title: Re:should Link be the hero in every zelda game?
Post by: DarkZelda on February 24, 2006, 07:11:42 AM

Title: Re:should Link be the hero in every zelda game?
Post by: medli on February 24, 2006, 07:54:18 AM
i've heard of them games! i think one of them is called bs-zelda they were only released in japan! :D
Title: Re:should Link be the hero in every zelda game?
Post by: Evilslayer on February 24, 2006, 09:56:32 AM
They weren't even made BY the Japanese. I think. They were made by Philips, not Nintendo, and I think they were only released in the USA. They were called Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon and Zelda's Adventure.

The latter was much better than the first of those (which was awarded the worst game of all time), but it was still horrible.

BS Zelda, however, I believe was good, because it was made by Nintendo. Ever heard of the 64DD that was going to be made for the N64 but was cancelled? There was also something like that for the SNES; the setellaview, which was only released in Japan.

Two Zelda games were made for it. One was a remake of the classic LoZ with SNES graphics, and the other was a sequel to ALttP, called the Ancient Stone Tablets.

Still, short, sweet, and to the point, Link must be the hero! He's the Legend of Zelda mascot, for Pete's sake!

No, I think the Triforce is the logo, not the mascot. There is a significant difference. :)
