While the latest Nintendo Direct had plenty to offer for Nintendo fans, the star of the show was easily the long-awaited gameplay reveal for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake. Showcasing fan-favorite characters, levels, and plenty of other details in a gorgeous level of fidelity, OoT's upcoming remake release has been taking the internet by storm.
Even though most of the conversation around the Ocarina of Time remake has been about just how excited fans are to experience the beloved game like never before, not everyone is a fan of Link's new design and the overall visual identity of the remake.
If you take a quick peek on social media, you'll find countless threads and comments criticizing Ocarina of Time's latest trailer, with the responses to posts like TropicalMaku on X sharing an official render being ripe with debate over the updated designs.
Facing countless comparisons to the "Unreal Engine 4 Remake" parodies and next-generation fan concepts that have been made over the years, not everyone is happy with the shiny new look.
Even though the gameplay itself does look fantastic, fans have noted that on closer inspection, several design aspects like Link's Tunic look "just overdesigned" compared to the rest of the game world, while also having a level of shine that looks like they were made with AI.
While adult Link himself has been spared from much of the remake criticism so far, aside from fans noting his missing eyeliner, his younger self has been getting the worst of it. With players calling him "chud link" or even comparing him to the impressively ugly baby from Twilight Princess, needless to say, not all players are on board with Nintendo's art style changes.
Even with the sheer amount of negativity surrounding some of the new character designs and aesthetic of the Ocarina of Time remake, there are still countless fans that are loving the change in direction, especially in the comments of NintendoAmerica's official trailer posts on X.
With fans praising the footage for being "absolutely beautiful" and having "nailed the aesthetic" of the original game while still updating it to modern standards, the Ocarina of Time remake is hands down the most graphically impressive Zelda game to date, regardless of whether you're a fan of the art style or not.
