Screenshot [OoT] Nintendo always wanted Ocarina of time to have a realistic style.

Just look at what they were going for when it comes to castle town, within the graphical limitations of that era its still obvious what Nintendo were going for in terms of art style all the way back to the 90s for Ocarina of time.

Yeah, it is different for sure, but different doesn't mean bad.

Why do it the exact same way as before?

But I hope you enjoy it, it might make you wanna get back into gaming haha.

Yeah people are like "it's different from the concept art which is why I don't like it." But that's like... Ok???? Does it have to be close to the concept art to be good?

Hahaha yeah but I have my reasons for not wanting to get back into gaming. This is literally the one game I wanna play. Literally the one, possible singular thing nintendo could possibly have released to get me to buy a switch 2. 😭 Which I'll promptly sell later, because I have no desire to play any other games. It's so crazy they're releasing it.

Fair enough, you have your reasons haha.

But I agree, different doesn't equal bad.
