This bit pissed me off even as a 12 year old. Not specifically the skin colour thing but they took away a cool character that I had a crush on and made her Generic Princess. Her personality is gone as soon as the reveal happens, like she got possessed or replaced with another person
Luckily she gets better
They knew they fucked up a good character. Then they reused it on Midna, who also goes princess mode and changes personality. It blows my mind people think Zelda has a good story or characters. They have common archetypes that they reuse each game
They have common archetypes that they reuse each game
That's basically Nintendo's whole shtick. Instead of spending time and effort on story/characters they spend it on gameplay instead. Same deal with Mario. Reusable characters and stories that enable the team to focus on mechanics instead.
It used to baffle me that people paid attention to the stories behind games in the first place. Sure, there's some kind of excuse for the game. But actually getting into it?
It's a platformer, who cares about the lore of the game world?
I've always had this read that video game stories can make a game a lot better if they're good, and make it a lot worse if they're bad, but if they're just kinda generic people are perfectly fine to ignore them.
They never released The Mushroom Kingdom Historia and people don't make 19 hour long analysis videos on how world 1 level 3 of super Mario bros is evidence that it takes place further in the timeline than Mario kart wii because that level looks like it could be an 8 bit version of mushroom gorge viewed from the side because where the pits are sorta matches and the brick style floor leading to the mushroom platforms indicates there used to be a road. Or saying Bowser was a tragic villain in Super Mario World cause he's a single father etc. Zelda fans have no chill
I see you haven't visited the Mario communities on Reddit crashing out over the lore and timeline of the Marioverse.
The starfox subreddit has been haunting my recs sense the Mario movie and those guys are in another level. I shoildnt be surprised. Im pretty sure they outright resent story at Nintendo
those guys are in another level
They're Nintendo fans (gamers + Disney adults) and furries, so yeah lol.
The only kind of plot any video game needs: Single screen, action starts.
Damn right
ahem
Jumpman
it would be really funny if Jumpman returned to the series and everyone just acted like he was a seperate person from Mario all along.
TURN HER BACK MOTHERFUCKER
There's a mod for the Wii U version that stops it at least. Not sure if there's one for the GC version.
Yep, there's mod for the GC version as well.
