That is just asking to be stung.

As much as people like to characterize them as violent little demons they only really sting in defense of themselves or their hives. Intentionally aggrivating them is the last thing you want to do.

IDK like...

Miraculous Ladybug is the first show that comes to my mind when I think of the French, and it's a harmless superhero series full of fun action and no psycho stuff, just silly pals defending Paris from silly villains. It gets dark at times but does know to stay in its lane and not go too crazy.

Xilam's works like Oggy and the Cockroaches and Space Goofs are also generally silly, lighthearted fare.

Even TOTALLY SPIES generally stays away from really radar-destroying jokes. There's fetishy stuff sure, but the characters generally treat each other well, there's not much swearing, and there's no really over-the-top fare besides the fetish stuff

You certainly don't see Totally Spies making suicide jokes like Kaeloo has

Hopefully this turns out better than their pitch-black colored Halloween whoppers.

See now, this is why I'm grateful I no longer work at BK.

I can't imagine serving this clown-ass food to tourists.

TotK's out and though I'm gonna wait like, a week or so for opinions from those I trust, I've been thinking about how the games could benefit greatly by abandoning tradition storywise. Like. Have an incarnation of Link be the 1 per century male Gerudo. Have a game where Zelda's the main villain and she's not possesed or anything. Maybe have a game where you climb Death Mountain, see a Goron rolling towards you only for it to grow spikes out of it's back and try to kill you, maybe you could get attacked by a Lynel super early on and get saved by a Gold Lynel who then safely escorts you to a Lynel village of sorts. People like to praise Zelda games for epic storytelling but the games are surprisingly rigid in regards to some story beats, I feel it could benefit from more worldbuilding in regard to races like with how men not being allowed in Gerudo Town not applying to Gorons who seem to be an all male race

Which is funny cause we've seen that Gorons have children so........... how.



The Lynel idea is interesting, but all monsters come from Ganon's malice(Aside from like, some undead ones), so that'd be odd.

I haven't played that many Zelda games, but I feel like prior to BotW the worldbuilding was kind of understated? Like, it was there, and it was pretty great, but in BotW it was on full display and that's part of why I loved that game.

Also completely agree that they should branch out from the typical story formula and I like most of your ideas, but I don't think they will do that since Nintendo likes to play it safe

Asexual reproduction maybe? Still an idea worth exploring as OoT did feel the need to explain that Gerudo and Hylians often had children together


See that's the weird part, in Zelda 1, there were already friendly Moblins who'd help you out provided you could find them, that fact alone can make for interesting stories about them, we already have Sheikah who defected, who's to say those mooks can't defect either?
