You aware that he is not in fact the driving creative force between Zeldas made after Twilight Princess, right? He wasn't in charge of Ocarina of Time either. That was Toru Osawa and Miyamoto. His only games as the leading creative was Majora's Mask, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. If you think the handheld games or the post-Skyward Sword Zeldas have been disappointing in their vibe, it's not his fault. It's because a guy named Daiki Iwamoto took over since the Nintendo DS games, and he hates Tetra from Wind Waker, and he didn't want it to be "too Zelda-like" so he made Spirit Tracks. Despite Aonuma trying to address internal concern that the Train was a shit concept for a Zelda game, Iwamoto kept insisting on it. In fact, Aonuma wanted him to use Wind Waker's world again and give Tetra more screen time but Iwamoto hates Tetra.

The other person is Hidemaro Fujibayashi. He worked at Capcom and wrote on the story for the GBC Zelda games and Minish Cap. He also ended up co-directing the Nintendo DS games, and then became the new "Aonuma" on Skyward Sword. That gave him the keys to make BotW. He is now in charge of "Mainline Zelda" and think all Zelda is about is "Fun & Creativity".

The only reason BotW feels better than Skyward Sword is because of Aonuma's influence. And the reason Tears of the Kingdom started to feel more Skyward Swordy again, is because Aonuma is transitioning his role as "Series Producer" to Iwamoto and Fujibayashi.

They're the creatives behind the "slop" era of Zelda, not Aonuma-san.

Ok but i still hate them all for allowing it to happen

1. you don't have that many hearts in oot at this point unless you are autistic or cheat
2. you will get hit 99% the time when just pressing forward and attacking
3. you can beat 99% of enemies in dark souls by pressing forward and attacking so no idea what even the point is
4. GOAT game, seethe

>>713472857
What is this supposed to prove again?

>>713472636 (OP)
As long as we can all agree Fujibayashi sucks. Zelda even with its flaws was perfection until SS.

Here's your GOAT.

That he gets triggered by OoT 30 years after release because it was way ahead of its time and is better than all his favorite games.

>good hitboxes are somehow bad
Most games at that time played like this. Grow up and get a job

This video assumes that the appeal of Zelda is the combat.

This was before Trannies took over the internet btw. Back then it was actually based and original thought to say stuff like this. If you say it today, it'll be because you have a metaphorical gun to your head to say it or get banned from online discussions.

The DS games were also 8/10s even by critics consensus. It was a clear sign that Zelda was under worse leadership considering the GB titles but especially Link's Awakening was, and still is up there with the best in the series.
I also have a soft spot for Oracle, but Fujibayashi only wrote dialogue on those. He didn't direct or design them.
