has link ever been in love with zelda in any of the games? i know it's kind of left for the players to decide but has it ever been flat out said? i really don't think it has but then i haven't played any zelda in a while so maybe i can't remember....


Skyward Sword and Adventure of Link both kind of end on a note that really really heavily implies it. Skyward Sword leaves them both on the ground world, and has the heavy implication that they are the main ancestors of modern Hylians. Adventure of Link ends with them maybe facebattling behind a curtain.

Otherwise not really stated.

Now hold up, there was plenty of time for Link to gently let Zelda down and tell her about him and the item-storage girl in SS.

Anyway, genderfluid, that's a new one. I'm gonna take a guess it means "I have the right to declare myself either man or woman on a constantly changing whim". Or maybe it's for people who are so trans they've left their human bodies for asexual slimes, or feel they are fluid trapped in a meaty body.

And yet if I were to rant about the lack of representation for left-handed people in video games I'd be considered crazy.

Though I suppose the difference is I don't care all that much about it until it interferes with controller schemes.

Link was left-handed until the Wii games came out...

I looked so hard to an option in Skyward Sword to switch hands.

Yes, those are exactly the same thing as misrepresented racial minorities or gender issues

No one said anything about racial minorities, I was talking about the people who rail about non-mainstream orientations where it's honestly not important or vital to have them in the story unless the story was written to make use of it. Making a token character is not the way to go and neither is changing an existing character to fit said orientations.

True, but it would be nice to have a main character who isnt straight white male nr five billion. Though frankly I think we'd be better off just making video game characters sexless and focus on racial diversity instead.

And I mean sexless as in not having any focus on sex, not that the characters would be genderless.

Yeah, ok. Let's throw to the wind a vast aspect of human nature because some people can't argue about it.

The reason that bisexual, trans and homosexuals are underrepresented in video games is because they're underrepresented in real life. They're a minority. If someone comes along and says "but it's just a game I should be allowed to pursue my escapist fantasies however I want" then they should realise that this is possible in almost any game wherein one creates a character anyway. Games with pre established characters (witcher, dragon age, legend of zelda) shouldn't just change their sexuality and personality on a whim (Dragon age 2)

If people are seriously more focussed on how their character looks rather than how their character kicks booty, they have no business playing video games. In most "character creation" games, your appearance does fuck all unless it's something with the dialog. In Mass Effect, gender only makes a difference in which crew memeber you can plow, and eventually leave for someone else to plow. In Skyrim, it's the difference in what slurs the bandits yell at you while they're trying to kill you. Seriously, 90% of the time, what gender, sex, sexual orientation, or race you are do fuck all for the gameplay. What that means is that the only reason this is an issue is that the GAMERS are the ones noticing the issue with race, gender, sex, and sexual orientation. That means it's not the developers who are cis-white-men-nazis...it's fuckin you...
