Sad.
Have you ever meet someone that you are incapable of helping in any way? That no matter how hard he tries, he is destined to fail?
It's just sad. He reminds me of really lonely people.

Someone who rejects and is rejected by society will lead a sad, lonely and bitter life.

It's a rough truth. I'm glad it's in the game though. Fits the coming of age theme really well.

He's woke as fuck.

He's disgusting.

>>4471436
is that a meth addict

He's cool in my book. Reminds me of Stefan from Das Ich.

>>4471692
You're implying that he needs help. Grog has ascended.

>>4471436
Where did he get the bags of gold when his dad said he's never had a job before?

A lot of characters in Kakariko Village I expected to have more backstory and plot relevance than they did. Dampe the gravekeeper was another one.

>>4471436
Hate the goofy character designs that OoT made the norm for this series

>>4472264

Yeah it should have characters with pink hair for no reason instead.

>>4472106
But this guy had a pretty complete story.

>>4471436
thought he was strange as a kid but in Majora's Mask he finds purpose via something simple (lil chickens)

>>4471436
shoulda worked with his dad more. a decent couple weeks of work woulda dulled that edge by half, at least. plus he'd probably be happier accomplishing something. seriously, both his parents own their own buisness' and there he is 'aw poor me.'
still sad though

>>4472336
I wonder what he did with those impressionable young chicks when nobody was looking.

>>4471436
He is right, people are disgusting like me and everyone around here

>>4471436
Literally me on the left.

>>4472594
sounds like you got some experience there, anon. maybe you two could swap notes

>>4471436
Average /pol/ack.

>>4471436
Can"t do anything of his life when his father's a hard worker. Sick fuck, gtfo in the woods

>>4471940
Actually might be.

Later he goes off into the woods by himself. Once you wake him up he says he needs a potion from his mom. She implies this is something that happens often.

I've heard a theory that the potion is supposed to be something to help with withdrawels or hangover or some such.

Might be nothing, hell it's probably nothing, but this guy being a junkie just seems a bit too appropriate for me not to give the theory a little credence.

>>4471436
He's right, every NPC in 3d zeldas has been disgusting as hell and no amount of fetishism for fishes and niggerjew women can prove otherwise.

I miss when even the rando NPCs in Zelda games were kinda interesting.

>>4473449

>the old witch at the potion shop is his mom

How did I never pick up on that... now her Termina counterpart being related to Anju makes a bit more sense to me.

Does that mean that the old burly carpenter man tapped that?

>>4472336

Those aren't the same people.

>>4472264

You must be so happy with the mii maker designed characters in BOTW then. Congrats, nobody looks unique anymore if they're not in the main story.

>>4473476
Actually I think the women are kinda hot. The potion girl for instance.

>>4473469
She's his granny. The burly foreman's wife is implied to be that nutty dog lady who lives next to Grog in MM.

>>4473719
What potion girl?

>>4473741
The one you meet when you get to the Twin Peaks Stables.

>>4471692
>Have you ever meet someone that you are incapable of helping in any way? That no matter how hard he tries, he is destined to fail?
I was about to say, "Yes, I've met myself," but on further consideration, I don't know if that's actually true. Can you say that you've met yourself? Or do you simply know yourself, without any event that could be called "meeting" taking place?

>>4471436
Has the personality of my ex girlfriend.

>>4471436
Hes /ourguy/

I drawfagged him once, like 5 years ago, on a website that got taken down. I used to love the nobody characters in video games.

interesting guy

>>4475971
Not bad desu. Also I always found it sad that in oot he meets his end by turning into a stalfos. It's ironic how in majora's mask, the much darker game, his parallel counterpart receives a more cheerful ending after you help turn his chicks into cuckos.

>>4473745
So they went all out and actually named a location in the game "Twin Peaks".
Zelda has been influenced by Twin Peaks since Link's Awakening.
Characters like this I find particularly Lynch-esque.
>>4477812
I also noticed this.

>>4477875
The opening to OoT sound like the opening to Twin Peaks.

>>4477884
I can totally see what you mean. Even the video direction and visual cues are similar.

>>4477875
It's actually called Dueling Peaks.

>>4477890
Close enough.
I see, it seems it's based on an actual place in Japan.

>He dies horribly and alone and the only one who cares is the creepy girl who laughs about it.

>>4473476
Thank christ.

>>4477915
I disagree, the kokiris look just like kid link.

>>4477916
Yeah it's a fucking mirror all right.

>>4477915
Most beautiful girl in Zelda is a shop clerk.

>>4477920
This man speaks the truth.

Seeing her so thirsty for dick in Majora was fun.

>>4473453
This. They didn't do much but you'd kind of imagine what kind of lives they lead.

>>4473472
Did we ever figure out who they were?

>>4479107

It's implied that they're just elseworlds versions of themselves and that Termina is really just a parallel world to Hyrule.

But the truth is that Aonuma wanted to make the game in less than a year to prove it could be done, so he reused a fuck tone of character models from OOT.

>>4479119
I was alright with that. Tons of characters are also new, and I think some of the old models were enhanced or given new animations.
What would have been shitty is if the game was still set in Hyrule and it was mostly the same map but with new dungeons, like the original Ura Zelda was going to be like.
I remember for a while I was confused about Ura Zelda and Gaiden, before MM came out and nobody was sure what was going on with the 64DD, if it definitely wasn't coming out outside Japan.

>>4479127

I would have been cool with re-using Hyrule, it felt like there was still a lot of unexplained mysteries in the world of OOT ( that tree with the giant claw marks on it will forever haunt me ), but I think what we got in MM was a better deal. I hope they do something similar for BOTW, though they probably don't even have to re-use character models since incidental NPCs are clearly made using a souped up version of mii maker.

>>4479119
Interesting. What do people think about the dead Link theory?

>>4479127
>>4479137
I actually would have loved another adventure in an OOT carbon copy Hyrule

>>4479141
>What do people think about the dead Link theory?

Pic related.
