I can't quite put my finger on it, Link, but there's something different about you these days!

Oh, wait, I know what it is! It's the facial hair, right? Yeah, that must be it...


Anyway, I can't say I'd like to play a version of The Legend of Zelda that features such a sinewy Link, but I don't have any qualms with looking at fan art that depicts the Hyrulian legend in such a fashion.

To see more of Chilean artist Gonzalo Ordóñez Arias' work, check out his deviantART gallery at your earliest convenience.

Yikes. He looks like he could take Ganondorf's head off with a swipe of his big bear paw.

Yeah, that's probably why we'll never see Link this, er, manly -- Ganondorf would be scared to death of him! I'll bet the straight ladies and gay gents would love him, though :) Well, assuming they like big, burly guys, of course...

Yeah...it would defeat the "little man on a big journey" feeling, I think.

I agree. Like I said in the original post, I wouldn't really want to play a game starring He-Link anyway. He's fine for fan art, but that's about it.
