coffee dates & pancakes

it looks greasy and stiff, the textures are overdone. i'm not sure about the armor he's wearing either, i could understand them adding that to adult link at some point but i don't see how it'll make sense for child link at this point in his life. and i'm assuming by having his hat and shoes off they want to make it make more sense for him to be in bed but if that was the case why does he have the armor on? why not just put him in an entirely different set of clothes as pajamas? plus making his bed sheet green against his green tunic is just bad art direction, he blends into the scene and feels like a disconnected shape.

i'm hoping they just showed this way too soon and this isn't a good shot to demonstrate their art direction but i'm not really sure how to feel about it yet.

(also maybe i'm slightly annoyed seeing so many people praise the look of this when probably many of those same people got upset at my hd OOT N64 gifs from several months ago. like ok when indie nonprofit modders do it it's cursed but when the multi billion dollar corporation does it it's awesome? and tbh the look of this really does remind me of those "unreal engine remakes" we'd see every few months in the 2010s that looked terrible but apparently that's what gamers wanted)
