Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
Tbh I would love to see a Zelda game where the main group in charge ISN'T the Hyrule royal family. Like, how cool would a game be if the Zora royal family or Gerudo, or maybe even Rito was centered, because I mostly feel like all of the races' leaders (mostly pre calamity) are just puppeted by the Hylian royal family - and be damned if they do ANYTHING that could be seen as a threat against the hylian royal family.
I get that they're all united under Hyrule, however that doesn't stop me from feeling like there's no point in having the leaders of all the races if they're all united under HYRULE (it's OWN kingdom). Kind of like having the biggest kid on the playground coming up to you and telling you that you're part of his group now and how he's your friend, however, when the time comes to have your own autonomy after him micromanaging your actions, he just interprets it as being a threat.
Especially since (at least in botw/pre calamity) neither the elders of the Sheikah, Goron or Rito, the Gerudo chief, or even the royal Zora family have much authority over the other races as the Hylian royal family does.
Quick side note - tysm for all the likes, I appreciate it very much. To put how I feel right now into words, I would say that I feel like a silly little court jester who has done a silly little dance and now people like me
Uh oh hero of Hyrule caught a cold better tell ganon to take a week off terrorising everyone ig
But tbh the tried and fell like a cartoon character slipping on a comically placed banana peel
You gotta think about how many times link has gone to bed without taking a bath (if he even does) and if he takes his dirty and/or sweaty armour off when he goes to bed (which I don't think he does tbh)
I know that they're the same word but in my mind, there's a clear distinction between comfortable and cozy
