A little confused on the inconsistency between some face styles… Saria looks amazing, Link is a weird wet baby but it’s kinda cute in an ugly way. Zelda… is a marionette…

Ocarina of time’s style definitely takes some getting used to, but I actually dig it. There’s clearly a lot of care gone into the details. Animation, voicing, overall world-feel is all top-notch. Excited for november!
