I’d never considered that but I love it. The character design is just androgynous enough.

I don't have the exact quote handy but I've definitely seen one from one of the higher up developers or directors saying Link was intentionally designed to be androgynous to make him easier for both genders to relate to.

One must never forget that the earliest magazine illustrations portrayed Link as a woman.

@nonoworks.bsky.social never forgot Pink Link

I wish that Nintendo did in fact make Link into a woman. Namely, a blockbuster video game series where a boyish girl elf embarks on a dangerous solo adventure to save her princess would have set gender views in America ahead by two or three decades.

shit maybe i need to play Tears of the Kingdom again.......

I started Breath of the Wild to practice seeing out of my helmet. Now I'm also playing Tears of the Kingdom. Bought a switch just for that. I don't normally play video games but this? Yea a lot.

it feels very good to be a hero when all you need to be is Kind and Brave : )))
