DISCLAIMER: I'm not sure if there is already a thread like this, but the search tool didn't give me any exact matches. Please, forgive the mistake if that is the case.
So, here's the thing: I'm a guy who believes that characters are essential in a story. Without them, why would the viewer be interested in what is happening? Ok, maybe I'm taking it too far there. :silent:
So, a few quotes from the recent news update have made me wonder, what direction is Nintendo going with her personality? I'm intereseted in some of the things they said:
This ones, in particular. I can't say that I'm satisfied with the way Nintendo has handled her character over the years (well, maybe a few exceptions here and there), but enough about me.
QUESTION: What do you make of these very vague descriptions about her character, the situations (including the videos) and her design? Do you like the direction they're taking? Do you think they'll eventually fall into stereotypes? Does it sound fresh to you? If you want, give a basic outline of what you think she might be like. After all, the descriptions are vague enough to allow interpretation.
Sound off, please. I'd like to see what people think of this.

- Link and Zelda are great childhood friends in Skyloft
- Link must hunt down Zelda to save her from the land below Skyloft, which one [sic] one has visited before
- Zelda is in no way a princess in the traditional sense
- Zelda is both sweet but has another strong side to her
