      Completely ruined Link’s character. Utter betrayal by a company that doesn’t understand one of its most popular franchises or the nuanced and narratively complex reason why he was left handed to begin with (because it is neat)

    Are there even left-handed main characters left? The most famous one that most people know, Link, is slowly becoming right-handed and I’m having a hard time remembering any other main characters who are actually left handed.

      Necro is left handed in Diablo 4. I’m left handed and it still feels weird to me.

      I couldn’t name you a left handed main character, best I can do is name two games which give you the ability to swap between what hand you use. Those being Minecraft and CS2 (counterstrike 2), with CS2 having a dedicated keybind for swapping what hand you use.

    I get it , represent everyone, I’m totally fine with it!!

    The only thing I’ll say is with life is strange…not every girl in the world is a lesbian 😅just more of a thing I found a little silly.

      While true, it does make some sense for lesbians to hang out with other lesbians, to a certain degree

          I mean it makes more sense for there to be a group of like 4 lesbian friends versus an entire conglomeration of 50 lesbians without a single straight person in sight for miles

            LGBT people also seem to have a natural proclivity to forming friend groups with each other even before coming out/realizing that they’re gay, trans, etc.

            Source: I’ve had it happen like 6 different times with different groups of friends in wildly different contexts. And that’s not even including the gay kid I knew in college whose dream for college was to turn a straight guy gay.

    Ill never forget how Nintendo switched Link to right handed for Twilight Princess on the Wii because it made for a “more immersive experience”.

    Only to find out it was a completely pointless change bc motion controls were pure gimmick in TP. You end up just flicking your wrist like a maniac, and it doesn’t matter at all that you’re lefty or righty.

      Twilight Princess is one of the few games I have actually quit playing because the controls were so bad, and one of the only remakes I have ever been interested in as a result. It just made my hands hurt and it didn’t seem to matter what direction you swiped even though that was integral to the controls.
