      Wasn’t Link always supposed to be androgynous looking? I think he was only more masculine looking in, like, three games. If I’m wrong so be it but BOTW definitely pushed for androgynous Link in full force especially with the Gerudo missions. Also Link has been gender goals for me ever since I was a young child so I’m a little biased on his designs over the years.

      • can’t really say, because neither have i been playing any of the recent zelda games, nor have i played any of the 3d zelda games. the ones i did play (2d and 2.5d games like link to the past, link’s awakening, minish cap, etc.) didn’t have link be too girly. but i guess those were the 3 games you’re talking about.

          To me Toon Link is fairly feminine, in triforce heroes you can dress as a cheerleader. The 2d sprites aren’t that detailed but the artist renditions are still fairly a good mix of feminine and masculine, at least to me.

          I was talking about twilight Princess, skyward sword, and ocarina of time (his adult form is more masculine). You said you didn’t play the 3D games so it makes sense why they weren’t on your radar.

          • I actually did hear about Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword and the Ocarina of Time (especially this one because of the amount of people that speedrunned it) and even might play it.

            Just after I’m done with the 2D Zelda games (figured I’d be more smart enough now to beat them as back then I’d get lost, can’t figure out puzzles or be unsure of what to do next).

            As for Toon Link, looking at him, I guess he’s fairly feminine? Idk, personally it’s hard fot me to say; even after looking at him up close.
