♦ Rules ♦


1. Stay Civil

This is a place for friendly discussion, memes, guides, art, gameplay questions, screenshots and the like. Discrimination and harrassment won't be tolerated.


2. Mark Spoilers

It is okay to post about "related games" (such as Age of Calamity and Tears of the Kingdom) but please use the spoiler "censor" and do not put spoilers directly into the title, as the censor doesn't work this way. Posts about other Zelda games might be suited better in general Zelda communities, like the ones listed at the bottom of the sidebar.


3. Offtopic Posts

Anything not related to BotW, like politics, religion, non-Zelda games etc. is better suited elsewhere and will be removed. The same goes for NSFW material.


4. No Advertisements

It is okay to post about merchandise, but links to those "design your own merch" sites will be removed, as those are almost always scams featuring stolen art. Affliate links will be removed as well. This isn't Etsy.


5. Provide Sources

If you're going to post art, comics, guides, screenshots etc. that are not your own OC, please mention the name of the original creator and ideally also a link to their portfolio/website. (Pinterest is almost never the original source)


6. Suggestions are Welcome!

Feedback, requests for improvements and constructive criticism are always appreciated ;)

Personally, I like Revali's "old" design better than the discount Falco we got in the end. Seems like they had a general fighter/musician theme going on with the Rito in general instead of just Kass in particular, and a cello bow (cellow?) would have been an interesting, unique weapon.

Also, the "eaven earlier" Champion designs included a Kokiri Champion and a Sheikah Champion that were ultimately scrapped from the game, along with whips and hookshots.

The hat and the poncho give me Darkwing Duck vibes. And I would just like to say that I'm really glad we got the final Mipha and not the anime pigtail looking one from the early sketches. Yeesh.

I'm also on team good thing they changed mipha. The animations are already very japanese (gestures, mannerisms, and reactions the rest of the world doesn't do) and making the characters too much like typical anime designs it would make everything too generic and weeby.
