What do you think of Link's new TP character model?

BS. You know what was well received? The Wii U launch Zelda tech demo. Darker and more mature, very TP-like. When they showed Zelda U people were like "it's not as good as the tech demo, but oh well, it'll pass. It's not THAT bad, it's acceptable, they have done much worse in the past, so we dodged the worst bullet."

Keeping Zelda kiddy and cartoony will eventually marginalize the franchise, just like the Wii U is marginalized now. The sales of OoT and TP are no accidents, maybe a vocal group of fanatical fans like the cartoony Link, but the market doesn't. And there are numbers to back it up.

 

Also, Spemanig, you sure love to treat your personal opinions and theories as truth/fact

No, I don't, but you sure love to not understand what opinions are, how they are meant to be conveyed, and how to read signatures specifically created to address such silly statements.

That was not the reaction at all. The reaction was that the artstyle was absolutely beautiful, and that people couldn't wait to "cut all that grass." The artstyle was almost unanimously and overwhelmingly favorably recieved. Almost no one with an audible voice had a negative or unimpressed opinion of what was shown there. People who don't like WW's artstyle are now in the shunned minority. Zelda U will do pheonominally, especially if/when it launches on the NX. And that will, in no small part, be due to its pheonominal art direction that is absolutely breathtaking.

Oh yes you do and I'm not talking only about this thread

It was favorably received, but not as favorably as the tech demo. People were disappointed that Ninty abandoned that art style, which is much more appealing to a much wider audience. The new art style is fine, but it's a step down comparing to the tech demo.
