Something You Might Not've Realized

I Noticed The Ordonians Dont Have Pointed Ears! But Links HOMETOWN In This Game Is Ordon Villiage, But His Ears Are Pointed Like A Hylian...

Discuss!

(FYI: Hylians Have Pointed Ears To "Hear The gods". Just A Bit Of Info For Ya!)

Maybe this is down to Link being a Hylian. It's not explained what's happened to Link on the way up to his current age. Plus, at one point in the game somebody says that hylians are the closest race to gods or something along those lines. Maybe because Link is blessed with godly power he is hylian.

It was the same in OoT too, you sort of realise you're a Hylian and not a Kokiri (name of the race in the forest whom you were pretty much adopted by).

And thanks for the little tidbit I quoted, that's quite interesting!

yeah, although the story was pretty massive, and had heaps of cutscenes did anyone else feel like they where a bit empty and left just a bit to much to the imagination?

yeh true

Just because his hometown is Ordon doesn't mean he's not Hylian. His parents could have just settled there because they wanted to live in a farm community.

No it was Ooccoos that are the closest race to gods.

Did you mean the Ooccas. Ooccoo is singular. Oocca is plural.

Someone in game mentions that the hylians are not the closest race to the gods but the Ooccas are.

And I thought Ooccoo and Jr was the weirdest species in the whole game. LMAO

Actually it was a female. LOL. Although it didn't make sense because her name was Ooccoo, and her 'son' was Ooccoo Jr. Her son called her 'Mama'

usually Zelda games are like that. i personally like how the stories pan out.

Well...the zelda timeline is also a bit muddled...
Zelda games are what you want them to be...if yuo want a fun game..you ahve it...if you want a game with lots of background...you have it. Its when you think about the background and the ethics...

Link has pointed ears because he is hylian...as said above , just because he is living in ordon , does not mean he is from there. Alos...do you not get to choose his name at the beginning...or is that just epona?
