She probably wanted to but no.

basically everyone in botw wants Link to "nock their arrows", except maybe Urbosa who seems a lot closer to Zelda sillydood;

Quote from: Hiro on July 28, 2018, 07:32:14 PMthe "botw worship" died down like 10 months ago, and you're not special for offering criticisms of it. the general consensus has already swung around to calling it mediocre for a while.

alright i absolutely need to address this before i proceed ghouldood;

you're not special for saying "you're not special for offering criticisms of [botw]", in fact you're not even the first to say almost that exact thing in this very thread lol

i addressed this EXACT point when c.mongler tried and MISERABLY failed to make it five whole pages ago, and it applies exactly to you too:

Quote from: C.Mongler on June 26, 2018, 06:08:07 PMalmost everyone thinks BoTW is overrated except for plebs at this point, it's basically popular opinion. it's also 1000% typical zelda cycle shit lol i'm too lazy to go back in my post history and quote myself a month before this game came out


i think exploring for explorings' sake is relaxing time waster, and i enjoy climbing mountains and then gliding off of them. that about encompasses my list thank you tip your waitress.

Quote from: Magyarorszag on June 27, 2018, 12:51:19 AMI'm well aware of what the Zelda cycle is, thank you very much. :|

i'm different and special because i thought it was overrated within a few hours of first playing it, unlike the predictable masses of insincere zelda soyboys who are only now saying it's overrated in retrospect because having a dissenting opinion makes them cool and unique :|

so don't you dare dismiss me as just another insecure disingenuous bandwagoner, it may only seem like i am because i started playing it after the ridiculous hype levels had finally had a chance to cool off akudood;

it's not like i initially thought it was absolutely flawless and perfect, and then changed my mind to trick suckers into thinking i'm hot sh@ with a bold and brave opinion that just so happened to be diametrically against the grain (you know, the tactic every basic e-"""celeb""" nu-male uses to artificially manufacture views)

dissenting opinions were simply nowhere to be found within the first few months of launch, despite the fact that the game has extremely severe, blatantly obvious problems that """fans""" and critics alike had just happily been ignoring and excusing away

probably because we as a community have such low expectations for zelda these days, but simply want to like it because muh nostalgia

or maybe some (by which i mean virtually all) zelda """fans""" are afraid to be critical of it because they unconsciously think it to be a part of their identity, and therefore perceive an 'attack' on zelda to be an 'attack' on themselves (how pathetic)

and that completely absurd reaction to botw, along with that intense sensitivity that poisons zelda discussion in general, perhaps epitomizes the reason why i have unironically taken to calling zelda "the sonic of video games", beginning at least as far back as 2014:

yeah there's a reason i used the word "arguably" lol

sonic probably has ~three good games: 2, 3, and knuckles

mega man may be the superior series overall but it's still capcom's sonic[/spoiler]
yeah but that's like saying that mario is nintendo's sonic just because it's the mascot

[spoiler]

zelda is nintendo's sonic[/spoiler]

there's even one featuring your totally new and unique take here:

Quote from: C.Mongler on March 01, 2017, 10:57:38 AMlike every single zelda game/high rated game in general i'm sure it will also follow the same cycle of: day 1 "holy fuck does anyone else feel like this is the BEST FUCKING GAME YOU'VE EVER PLAYED???", to a week later of non-stop "hmmm well i know everyone likes it but i'm gonna go against the grain and say it wasn't that great", to two more weeks later where it will hit the honestly, most overated zelda IMO status where it will sit in limbo until the next zelda game comes out, when everyone will start saying "you know, Zelda XYZ didn't really deserve the hate it got; I think it's a real gem in the rough of the series!!!".


called em like i sees em

it's why i like to say that zelda is nintendo's sonic

as if we haven't all been aware of the zelda cycle since at least skyward sword, lol

and finally:

Quote from: Magyarorszag on August 18, 2017, 08:17:08 PMthe influence flow is the other way around

there's a reason that zelda is commonly considered to be the sonic of video games

His argument truly was ridiculous, wasn't it? srsly

I'm glad you both are now in full agreement that I am not, in any sense, just another desperate bandwagon critic. happydood;

TooB

People still think I'm crazy when I tell them I didn't think botw was all that great.

Mostly at work

it's possible that i'm particularly frustrated with this game right now because i've spent the last few days farming for starbits insultdood;

And why should an opinion have to be """"""special"""""" (and meet Hiro's or Mongler's personal criteria for """"""special"""""", at that) to be worth sharing, anyway? ghouldood;
