MrCheez said:I think the debate centers around what you think actually HAPPENS when Zelda becomes Sheik. Is she putting on a costume, or is she actually transforming into a different person?
I think the complete change in her facial structure, her skin tone, eye color, and new muscular physique points to the fact that she is actually transforming into a different person. In fact, perhaps she is changing into a Sheikah that really existed - maybe Sheik used to be a living dude?
Either way though, this is all just my opinion (I think it's an interesting topic anyway, although it's a debate that is years old now) and I can see how it can be looked at either way.
Anyway, it will be interesting to see if the NEW Sheik design is more masculine or feminine looking. Hell, every aspect of this new design is going to be interesting... I can't wait. I wonder what the philosophy behind the changes will be. Can anyone pinpoint an aspect of the "Twilight Princess Style" that they think will be adopted for the Sheik makeover? Darker or less saturated colors is one thing to probably expect I guess?
True. The point that you bring up about how far the change goes is a point alot of people argue. When you look at Zelda's physique tho, it is not that different from Sheiks only more musclular. I mean, why would they go as far as wraping Sheik's chest area if there was nothing to hide? Impa has no wrapping or anything so we can't say that it's a normal female Sheikah thing.
I just want to know why no one has randomly asks Aonuma over the years. :/
Since he's working closely with Sakurai we shall see when Brawl comes out.
