Yeah, I'm not sure how I feel about this. Feels strange when it's the staff opening a topic like this.

I just feel like the title is only one sided thats not fair. Of course it is Normal for all video game characters to be whitr so lets no address that only gender. Why cant the title change to black? Just proof how the gaming community is sooo one sided and lacks diversity to the point they dont care about certain topics or completely ignore it.

I remember that, "Post a black Nintendo character thread." And people were posting bomb-ombs, bullet bills, yoshis and kirby thinking its funny. They werent even banned because of course its the gaming community and thats how they think.

Girls are obsessed with male Link's looks.

If Link was turned into a girl all those sales are gone. Whoosh. Girls wouldn't like him anymore.

It's simply business. Nothing more. I'm an expert.

And Nintendo wonders why only 7% of Wii U owners are women, at this point even dudebro games like Call of Duty cater to women better.

Wii U isn't getting a new Zelda game so I fail to see how your post is relevant to the topic.

Spoiler

>_>

 

[Pila]

Seems like it was an excuse for people to post weird Zelda deviant art.
Where do they find these anyway?


Like...what were you searching for...?

I don't wanna know. XD

I know we can't discuss about how they manage their board, so I'll shut up. I don't pay the bills.

 

[Akiller]

How do we end up talking about Sonic and Batman?

 

[Mory Dunz]

Go along with it. Enjoy the ride.

Lol HornyGAF smh....

Yes, this is about equality and representation, 1950s era be dammed!

Posts lewd, pedophilic and NSFW femLink fanart.


Whatever you say guys...

 

[hydrophilic attack]

No.

He is a male. A trans male.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

Just poking at you. I never even played a Zelda game in my life which I would if Link was a female for some reason. And I have no argument to explain why

the only Zelda game you need to play is 3D Dot Hero

 

[Majukun]

no problem with that.. link is basically asexual already

 

[SenorArdilla]

Yes. Link is definitely a sexual.

Lawd. Dont do this to me at this time o' night.

LAWD.

 

[Deleted member 125677]

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Lawd. Dont do this to me at this time o' night.

LAWD.

Lol what?

 

[Qurupeke]

What

 

[tbd]

Didn't know here are so few Zelda fans. Gender swap Link would be terrible. They should give him more personality instead of going the "let's just trash the few traits and male tendences our 30 year old protagonist already has and make him a Fallout dummy" route.

However, a new female protagonist or playable Zelda (dat Sheik) or Tetra would be great.

 

[Cat in the Hat]

Lawd. Dont do this to me at this time o' night.

LAWD.

Haha have fun jerking off

 

[Vex_]

Lol what?

All I'm gonna say is: I think it's about time we consider getting a femme Link -- because good GOD ALMIGHTY--

*ahem*

I mean we just need to "diversify".

On another note, it is REALLY hot in here all of a sudden.

Spoiler

LAWD!

 

[FF Seraphim]

Yeah, the roaring success of Okamiden has shown that action adventures with canine protagonists and a cute artstyle are in demand nowadays.

Spoiler

:´(

...But... but this will be Link as a Corgi!
If anything The Legend of Zelda: Corgi Link would save the Wii U! BELIEVE!!

 

[SenorArdilla]

Lawd. Dont do this to me at this time o' night.

LAWD.

Link is best girl.

 

[marmoka]

It makes sense. Link and Zelda never had descendants, as far as I know. Now I understand why.

 

[Flare]

All this thread is doing for me is reminding me how much I really want a Zelda game already...

 

[Aarglefarg]

Sure, but now the parts with kid Link in oot make me feel dirty.

Oh right, they already did.

This seems to mean a bad thing.

 

[Manabanana]

Is there a civil way to disagree with this and not be banned? I can't tell if the OP is a joke after the Mega64 video satirizing Metroid outrage.

No, this topic is very serious.

 

[takriel]

Can't wait for some official artwork of Link U

 

[petran79]

Annita, what have you done!

 

[FF Seraphim]

Do you at least agree that Link should be a Corgi?

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Right

 

[Hermii]

If a regular poster was the OP. modbot would close this in an instant.

Not that its not a cool thread. Carry on!

 

[Manabanana]

I guess I can live with that since he was a wolf in Twilight Princess.

Just don't understand the case for such passive aggression towards Nintendo's clumsy PR. They always seem to be under fire in the weirdest ways.

 

[Vagabundo]

My four year old daughter already thinks Link is a girl. So no big changes here.

 

[BGBW]

Each Zelda game is a new version of the legend anyway

In the year 2015 people still think this despite there being numerous direct sequels lol

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Link.....look what they have done to you ;____;

 

[Log4Girlz]

My life has been a lie.



I was blind, but now I see.

 

[Phocks]

My favourite King Arthur is a girl as well, so I guess I'm a-ok with female link.

Saber is worst king arthur smh

 

[DICKS AHOY]

do i look like i'm joking

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Adjust your 1950s-era PR statements and internal development memos as appropriate. Print new editions of your ultra-important half page long Legend of Zelda lore pamphlets.

All your Links are girls.

All of them, from her landmark NES game onward. Thanks for understanding, Nintendo.

They are hot.

 

[Jackano]

Wow Tyler just made the decision when I was away.
Many good stuff already posted after... 26 pages wtf guys.

But I have to post something anyway. Have to try something different.

 

[aravuus]

So I read the first page then came here, I still don't get what's going on. I'm aware of the ign interview thread but this thread is... What, exactly?

Apparently Link is now female

 

[Conor_Fool]

The few things I've seen in this thread leave me speechless. Go USA soccer

 

[a.wd]

so this went rule 34 real quick, real quick, whole of Gaf on some naughty shit.

I'm ok with this, but my opinion counts for nothing so.

 

[chaobreaker]

I, for one, welcome our new female Link overlords.

Why is that 10 year old so well endowed?

Why is her strap straddled on her as if her breasts are on her ribs?

Whats up with the huge flowers and grass on the background? Is she supposed to be tiny? Is this fanart some sort of weird mashup to both OoT and the Minish Cap?

I'm so confused.

I'm p sure post #77 already has you covered, but thanks for sharing that delightful picture again.

Deku flowers, no?

Damn it you're right!

What about OP's cosplayer responding to Evilore?

 

[littletran22]

All my life I've been living a lie...

I will never see Link the same way again...

I think I'm okay with that

 

[Rootbeer]

I prefer Link as a male and always will. He's an androgynous elf-like (Hylian) character and I like it that way. I would support an option that lets you customize Link at the start of the game, with one of the options allowing you to change your character's gender.

Let's get Nintendo to give better support to their existing female characters such as Samus before we go around demanding they change the characters that are working out quite well to another gender.

Do you even GAF? There's a new Other M bash fest every other week blasting on Samus' portrayal and the betrayal of her character in that godforsaken game.

What you're basically doing is whine about this thread's existence by saying "X is worse, why should we moan about Y?" And that can be reason for a ban on GAF.

Nintendo could fix other stuff too but that doesn't mean we should stop discussing other issues too.

EDIT: I meant to say "reason for a ban" but my autocorrect changed it to "bankable". It's corrected now.

Having amale character is bad now?

 

[Joni]

That is a good idea. Don't even have to change the design.

I always feel my posts don't get enough interest so I'm going to remember this is future.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

No. Complaining about the point of this thread ("why are we discussing this if there's worse things to talk about?") is.
