Earlier quoted context omitted.

ok but Jason Momoa for Adult Link

Interesting idea and get where you're coming from. Think someone along the lines of Timothee Chalamet could work too

This has such a high chance of being a fun but forgettable mass audience generic fantasy. I don't think any Zelda game had a incredible story, it was basic evil darkness takes over world and must be stopped by unlikely hero. They all had amazing atmosphere though. Would be great to see it take more of an art house cinema style like The Green Knight, but I doubt that will happen.

some of them got a lot deeper than others. i think expanding on Majora's Mask would make a great time travel fantasy thriller, especially if they focus on everyone else in the town/world and how link just weaves them all together

Considering how character focused that game was, I can see that working. The side quests were the most interesting part.

The success of Dungeons and Dragons gives me hope.
