^^Twilight princess is one of my favorite games. But Zelda is on screen for like 3 minutes, and has zero connection with Link. It could've been better than it was

I disagree on twilight princess, midna turns it from a duty to a promise imo

You’re right about the whole love story thing for sure but I physically recoiled at what you said about skyward sword and TP. Like I agree with what you said about how Zelda was treated in the TP story but it is nowhere near being the worst game in the franchise, and it’s certainly better than skyward sword, and neither are on the level of botw Totk or ocarina of time

I should've clarified it's the best game for zelink in the franchise

Oh THANK GOD. Yeah that’s actually the main reason I got the game in the first place is because the relationship is so prominent. Especially since botw was my first Zelda game when I was 12, and you just don’t get to actually be with her in the present story. Only through the flash backs. And it’s even worse in tears which I’d rediscovered with my switch 2 this past spring/early summer. You don’t get any Zelink scenes at all. Only way I get to spend time with her is when I farm her body parts

I think BOTW selling 35+ million copies simply does not happen if the plot was "go save the princess" instead of "Go save her. Save Zelda." I hope nintendo leans even more into Zelink in ocarina of time and future Zelda games. Link's awakening was the fourth game in the franchise, and Marin is interesting because she's literally Link's dream girl: Zelda if she was able to live a simple life. I am a complete sucker for romance and love stories
