Like, not going to judge anyone who buys and plays it or anything like that, it will be someone's first contact with a pretty iconic and good game, but I feel like it takes a lot of the essence of the game away and there were probably better ways to translate the OG style into modern graphics.

The reason why the drastic change for Link's Awakening worked is because Link's awakening is a pixel game originally, so the tiny round characters with simple faces and details translates the pixel experience wonderfully.

And this art style would work for other pixel Zelda's, but particularly the GBA and GB ones like A link to the past, OOA/OOS and Minish Cap.

I understand giving it a more somber look, in comparison with the BOTW-TOTK style, because OOT undoubtedly has a darker atmosphere, but I feel like the character design is way off.

And look, I wasn't the biggest fan of the Unreal Engine version either, but I feel it was way more accurate to the original design.

Aside from that, I think releasing yet another OOT remake when the N64 port exists and when we have plenty of remasters was a bit of nostalgia bait to get Zelda fans to buy the Switch 2.

To be fair, if they had chosen TP for a remaster (not a remake please, I want them to do what they did for Sksw, if they change the TP artstyle I'll cry) or one of the pixel games for a remake, I would definitely have considered getting one for Xmas. I'm not judging anyone who buys it because I understand OOT is many fans favourite but it's just the art style is throwing me off really bad.

My part on the art trade with @rayraered

I gave him one of those sugar stick things he’s okay now

based on this ⬇️

You can clearly see I put less effort into each succeeding panel. But yeah, hi ZADR nation!

I feel like he’d struggle to maintain balance between either doing everything he wants to do and bending completely to what Dib wants from him.

So I could see Zim doing a bunch of stuff for Dib that he doesn't really want to and Dib needing to learn to intuit when Zim's uncomfortable but not willing to say so. But he's just as likely to do a bunch of stuff Dib never asked for and doesn't want and expect him to be grateful and then get really upset when Dib (in classic tactless Dib fashion) lets him know he does not appreciate it.

"What do you mean you don't like your new leg upgrades?!"

"Why would I ever want you to saw off my legs in the middle of the night and replace them with legs of pure gold?!"

"All our other classmates seemed thrilled by the idea!"

This was supposed to be a quick doodle (OG under the cut)

Yayayayay, another piece done!!! >:D

I think it turned out pretty good this time :)

Uh, yes. I'm done. I made this instead of studying for PE class like I told my parents I would and now I have to go to bed so the best hope for me now is that I study first thing in the morning and pretend that what I learned I learned last night (aka rn).

So yeah, have a great day, love you all, hopefully we'll have something new soon!! 🫶

Please don't repost my art on other platforms without permission, thank you so much!!!
