why would the kokiri, who are generally all the same height, build such a tall counter for their shop? seems to me if they want to efficiently conduct business they would build a counter more suitable for persons of their size
Very serious ocarina of time thread
he do be jumpin tho
>having to jump constantly in order to interact with customers
fuck that shit dude
Who would be buying shit anyway? Wasn't Link supposed to be the first Kokiri outside of the woods? At the very least, why would they need to buy anything if they just gathered there stuff from the forest anyway. Rupees seem like a Hylian invention
it's a videogame, OP
They weren't the original inhabitants
that's a good point, the girl in there even says the store sells things you can just find in the forest (why the shopkeeper doesn't throw her out for this anti-business sentiment is beyond me)
not an argument
maybe he inherited it from a taller kokiri
this would make sense
she might be there for marketability, a cute little kokori loli would probably help sell a lot
now another issue arises: why does the concept of "manhood" exist for the kokiri? aren't they all permanently "children"? Furthermore, their conception of "manhood" is inconsistent. The one in pic related insinuates that "manhood" is not attained until one obtains a fairy. However! In that same village, the female kokiri says you're a man merely for climbing up to reach her. So now we have two different conceptions of what it means to become a "man" in a society where everyone is in a permanent state of physical developmental stasis.
Jesus, no wonder everyone says this game aged poorly.
user.
Who. the. fuck. cares.
The store basically sells tourist trinkets. Outsiders come in and think "wow, a stick, a real piece of nature," and don't realize they can pick one off the ground for free. The only product that's not a scam is the shield.
it's a careless sign of poor environmental design and it negatively affects my ability to properly immerse myself within the game's world
but the kokiri don't age or die, right? how would he inherit it?
Because it's a fucking video game and the devs weren't super autistic when making assets.
Zelda lorefags always disgust me. It's a very shallow series aimed mostly at kids and teenagers yet you keep searching for some deep meaning to it. Get a life, JFC.
>Zelda lorefags always disgust me.
Not defending faggot OP but fuck off, you are literally getting offended over something that doesn't affect you.
You sound like a bitch on the rag.
>reddit spacing
>muh gatekeeping
actually kys
look lads, real live autism
I'm not making any claims as to there being some sort of hidden "depth" insofar as the height of the counter is concerned. I merely found the disparity between the height of the counter and the store clerk intriguing. I can't help but notice these things.
It's kind of fun to speculate, though. No harm in it. If I can get some overreactions from people, all the better!
Scum like you should be gatekept out of fandoms.
hes suppose to have a stool but the fairy stole it
reddit moment
user, maybe the character designer thought it would be like "haha lol the kid is short"
And made the shop counter taller than the clerk.
>NOOOO LET ME CIRCLEJERK IN PEACE
fuck off to /vg/, autist
Anyone who says
>hurr who cares
Is precisely why game devs get away with bullshit game design
Don't you have a Genshin Impact thread to be posting soijacks in?
It's also possible that the assets were made for some other store and just repurposed for Kokiri Village. Or the artist just didn't give a fuck.
Mido is just an asshole and is just jealous that the Great Deku Tree summoned Link instead of him
People like you need to be kept in a padded room
You also have to remember the shops were sized up for young and adult Link so maybe that was something they had in mind.
Zelda lore is a thing since Ocarina of TIme faggot
I'm curious, which would be more work? Animating the shopkeeper jumping or making a static counter?
Only in the autistic fandom, devs literally don't care. It's not fucking Dark Souls or Elder Scrolls, get a grip.
Maybe it's a joke
