Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ??
Uruanna@lemmy.world 1 day agoThe first Hyrule Warriors is based on the premise that all Links and Zeldas through time and space (being basically reincarnations) are destined to be together
I don’t recall any romantic spin of this in HW, they are tied to each other and will pop up at the same time, but not to fall in love. This is just the continuation of the OoT/SS curse of Demise / Ganondorf, “I’ll follow you both every time you show up”.

While there is no direct romantic interaction between Link and Zelda, the whole motivation for Cia to turn evil is because she wants Link for herself, but it’s just not meant to be because all Links (sharing the same soul, that part is indeed canon) already have a universally appointed “soulmate”.
What that soulmate deal could actually mean might be debatable (it’s kind of loaded already), but anyway, Cia is only interested romantically. She’s got a literal fucking temple full of roses and statues dedicated to the guy.
Also her slightly saner alter-ego comes to the same conclusion, and just drops the case instead. They’re basically supposed to be omniscient.
This shit is awful.
