I prefer to say that Link destroyed the world in Link's Awakening. He certainly ended a world, in a manner of speaking.

Anyway, he rescued a deity, bringing some degree of peace to the (actual) world.

It's complicated. And sad. Dont wanna spoil potential players so I'll probably leave it there. I'd have loved for this to get a graphical upgrade remake but I'm sure many others would hate that.

I feel like the statute of limitations for spoilers on Link's Awakening has got to be up by now. The game came out over 20 years ago, and it was the first game released on the 3DS Virtual Console over 3 years ago. If you haven't played it by now, you have no one to blame but yourself.

Plus, the plot isn't all that complicated. It's pretty straightforward, and the game is pretty honest about it right off the bat. It's obvious enough what's going on from an early point in the game that if you hype it up to have some great plot twist, players will be disappointed. I think it's better to just present the game as it is and note that it is one of the better applications of that trope.
