Yeah, I'm aware that this debate can get really lame at times as I would rather debate my regular sports, music, politics, religion, philosophy ect ect which I normally do on other threads on other websites, but since Gilderpilot wants to continue this I'm only happy to oblige.
If you want we can start debating on who will win the NBA championship on MySpace or ESPN.com I guess, but since I don't take myself too seriously, Links imaginary love life is just wacky enough to prove to myself that I can debate on any subject regardless of how cheesy it really is.

( Okay, so maybe this wasn't a good example of him showing spine as he was out of character ) When she was his memory in the face of his impending death, that spoke more to me about regret and his thoughts than anything else did.
I have no doubt that kid Link was capable of being attracted to pretty ladies ( Cremia, obviously ) just I don't think he was himself when he left Hyrule. If it had been Adult Link, I don't think the scene would have been any different: he still would have been effectively out of character. The other "parting" from the ending of OoT had Adult Link likewise leave Adult Zelda, and the mood was very sad: but he was in his right mind in the end. He submitted to her wishes and went back but only to go straight back to her when he could. |
I just saw that memory as regret in the sense that little Link was like "Rats..I should have listened to Zelda and stayed in Hyrule instead of using this whole I have to find that stupid Navi who just says HEY and LISTEN over and over again." To me it was as if this was a lame excuse to get away from the boredom of Hyrule and Zelda keeping Link around as an adorable little pet of some sort.
I saw the Cremia scene as just mild sexual humor put in by the programmers on purpose for a MalonxLink reference. As for the
OOT ending, Link looked rather upset when he returned to the Temple of Time and realized that he was no longer big anymore. Then he turned around with that pissed off look on his face to maybe go confront Zelda to reverse the process.
