Description |
There have always been Zelda fans that wished they could play as a female protagonist, and support has grown ever since concept art for a female Link (which eventually became Linkle) was discovered in the Hyrule Warriors art book. Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma says that Linkle will be kept in mind for future Zelda games, but in the meantime, one dedicated father has decided to give his daughter the chance to play a classic entry in the franchise without being locked into a specific gender.
A longtime Zelda fan named Tony Smith has gone through The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and edited out all gender-specific references to Link, replacing them with gender-neutral words. Due to the fact that Link's appearance in A Link to the Past is "fairly androgynous," Tony hopes that giving the game gender-neutral dialogue will make it easier for his daughter and fans of all gender identities to enjoy.
