I would love to see Link with a rifle if he had any gun; I'm thinking a Sniper so it'd be closer to the Bow and Arrow and other projectiles featured in previous titles. I don't really want Link to have a gun, but if he must then make it a rifle
Link shouldn't even have a gun, period. This is a fantasy game, and if you haven't noticed, most of the items are made up. It would be strange to include a modern day item we use on a day to day basis. In real life we don't have hookshots, bombs we carry around, flying beetles, or ocarinas that warp us around. Sure, we might have slingshots, but they don't have the same power as the ones in Zelda, and we sure don't use them on a day to day basis, same with a bow and arrow. I think the idea of having guns in Zelda would ruin part of what this game stands for, and that is that a game doesn't need to be like Modern Warfare, Halo or any of the other shooter games, in order to be successful.
Final Fantasy is a fantasy game (it's in the name lol). Guess what? Squall and Lightning have gunblades. A gun mixed with a blade. So, that doesn't make much sense. We do have grappling hooks which function basically the same as a hookshot. Bombs are explosives, and people in the army carry fragmentation grenades, smoke grenades, flashbangs, etc. Flying beetles, well, beetles fly so there. And I can't argue against Ocarinas.This is a fantasy game, and if you haven't noticed, most of the items are made up. It would be strange to include a modern day item we use on a day to day basis.

I disagree, my cousin has a slingshot and does EVERYTHING with it. If I had a bow and arrow I'd use it all day.winterbbytumblr said:Sure, we might have slingshots, but they don't have the same power as the ones in Zelda, and we sure don't use them on a day to day basis, same with a bow and arrow.
