hey ho am i allowed to be also a little >_> at how much eye imagery is used for sonau aesthetic stuff (including the sonau design with their dumbass third eye that i feel is just another ham fisted way to make them more divinely awesome so over super cool tm imo) when they ALSO went out of their way to damn near erase everything shiekah from totk? .. like shiekah ... the eye guys?
like that could have been used as connection thingy, just like the sonaus apparently always had white hair (granted just looking at rauru and mineru since thats all we got .... also funny how just the two royals are still alive .. hm) like so many other things that could have been used to connect the two (like i have been saying) ... its right there .. why didnt you ..... its so obviously suited to be used to connect the sudden new race with a long established one and lessen the weirdness of it ... and instead its made WORSE bc they for some goddamn reason decided to wipe all shiekah stuff of the map .. espeically or really only all ancient shiekah stuff .. everything that purah makes is there but its not really called shiekah tech and didnt build on anything of the old tech also nothing of the old stuff remains except for one guardian corpse on the hateno lab which is like super weird and also feels more like an accident tbh given how cleanly everything else just vaporized (including.the.shrine.of.life.)
so overall the whole feeling of the ancient shiekah getting fully undone and its all sonau now is made even worse the more you think about it, bc not just is all ancient shiekah tech erased and vaporized like it never happened, even their signature symbols are taken and almost overused by them like its trying to make you forget it was the shiekahs symbol for wayy longer, while the sonau stuff is suddendly shoved in ever single nook and cranny of the map and the worlds history and lore, every mystery or unexplained thing is just answered with 'sonau was here :)', every NPC, including zelda, is now only and severly obsessed with the sonau, its just feels .. so forced?? like it really does feel like some excecutive (?) had the brainworm of sonau and wanted it everywhere no matter how little sense it made and how much it destroyed the themes and already established lore and were anxious you wouldnt like them and severly, horribly overdid it with how cool tm you are supposed to find them
i know just an eye symbol cant just be reserved for one group or whatever and never be reused, and its also still used for the shiekah still there but together with everythign else it just feels weird nonetheless ...
#ganondoodles talks#zelda#totk#ganondoodles rants#also alot of characters just dont act like themselves#like it feels off#and like i mentioned in a previous rant#it feels like totk is trying to gaslight me about what happened in botw#its weird#i like how someone suggested totk is just oot raurus fanfiction where hes a cool furry king and does whatever he wants with the story tho#bc totk sure feels like it is that lol
