    It's not really Ganondorf

    Guess I'd better pick up that phone again, because I ****ing called it. :eyes:

    It's not really Ganondorf

    This is definitely true for me. Perhaps Ganon's biggest flaw is that he just doesn't spend much time on screen. We don't see him doing stuff so much as we just see the apparent consequences of it and some NPCs who will opine about how bad the stuff he did was.

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I think his motivation is a lot more detailed than Ganon's, and that he has much more of a personality. :eyes:

    It's not really Ganondorf

    And it makes for a cool boss, but not a compelling villain. Ridley is a cool creature to fight, but not the sort of villain with any compelling motivation or personality.

    It's not really Ganondorf

    Bold of you to assume they've ever taken the timeline into account when writing any Zelda game. :eyes:

    It's not really Ganondorf

    More like I want Ganon to be Black Adam.
  7. Bowsette Plus-Ultra

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I feel like the misconception is that I just want Ganon to flip a switch and go full good guy protagonist right away. That's probably how Nintendo would write it, but that's not what I want. I'd like to see a developed Ganon who shifts from something less stereotypically and blandly evil into...

    It's not really Ganondorf

    Using Ganon's evil for being evil's sake to justify Ganon's lack of characterization is just using one bad characterization to justify another. Ganon is never given time to be anything other than a scary piece of cardboard menacing Link from atop a tall tower. You can write a character to be a...

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I mean, Majora has the same issue. It's a boss with a cool design and zero motivation or real personality outside of just being evil.
  10. Bowsette Plus-Ultra

    It's not really Ganondorf

    That sounds like the opposite of any sort of compelling character. Evil because evil has never made for an interesting villain. If he isn't going to develop at all then what's the point of keeping him around?

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I mean, what character? That he's evil? He certainly wants the Triforce because he's evil. What character is there to assassinate?

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I'd rather that literally anything interesting be done with Ganon. He had two lines of ambiguous in WW and writers seem to have taken that as an excuse you never try.
  13. Bowsette Plus-Ultra

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I did. His characterization in Wind Waker still pales compared to villains from outside Zelda.
  14. Bowsette Plus-Ultra

    It's not really Ganondorf

    I'd rather he be a character than just a cardboard villain for the protagonist.
  15. Bowsette Plus-Ultra

    It's not really Ganondorf

    Honestly, I'd still prefer the Good Guy Ganon that people fanfictioned into existence after seeing dehydrated Ganon in the teaser.
  16. Bowsette Plus-Ultra

    It's not really Ganondorf

    It's Ganon, because it's always Ganon. If it has a physical resemblance to Ganon then it's him. I love speculation on the new game as much as he next person, but Nintendo isn't exactly outside the box with their antagonists.
