Ehh i dunno, she's still built around magic and wisdom like always, she doesn't carry a shield and she's apparently more acrobatic. Sounds like a lot more than just female Link. I love how Prince Link is a helpless-noble-but-adventure-craving type like so many "strong" female protagonists.

I suppose. I just feel that it doesn't do enough to make it more than just a gender swap. Like, a lot of Zelda's feminity and reserved nature is gone, as well as her status as a figurehead of Hyrule. Link is the Prince of Hyrule in this case, which is a huge deal of Zelda's character.

Personally, I'd just like to see a game that has Shiek as the protag and fleshes out her role in Hyrule, while keeping Zelda's character intact.
