If link had been completely transformed at the start of the game it would fix one of my biggest gripes with totk as a whole, that side characters don't recognize you, despite having done quests for almost all of them. Your close allies would either recognize your spirit, or maybe purah sends a message confirming it's actually you, but side characters would have no way of knowing, fixing the issue
@@laggianputmaybe if you can’t write it out maybe hand it to someone that can but I would read it and why I saying this is I almost desperately want to read it so if you can write it out you got a reader
It annoys me how most of Tarry Town don’t seem to respond to Link as someone they know considering he literally invited them to move there and helped build the town. Especially that Zora priest guy who’s known Link for hundreds of years

The ears and white marks on the original one were the biggest issue. The white markings going accress the mouth was creepy. And not giving him the big, adorable ears was just a missed opportunity. As for the red hair, it makes him look too much like Gannon. I know it is supposed to be an homage to the Ancient Hero, but it doesn't quite fit here. And it would be awesome to be part Zonia throughout the game! Abd make people STILL not reconizing you make more sense.
The ears make sense in the original look imo. The ancient hero is off spring of Sonia and Rauru. He isnt going to look fully Zonai because he isn't. He's half Hylian.
@@TheGirlWhoStoleAStarThe only connection between the ancient hero and the zonai is that they used zonai-made armour. There's no blood relations mentioned and the zonai ended with rauru and mineru
The lack of facial expressions is the most jarring thing about The Hero's Aspect the most. This mod does look pretty nice though, it really improves the look of it all.
I dig the headcanon behind this, but tbh I wish the horns weren't an exact copy of the Light Dragon's horns. Each dragon has unique horns, and even Rauru did not have full horns (he *had* horns, 4 of them, but they were more like just sharp nubs on his head, not full horns like the dragons), so IMO Zonai-Link's horns should also be unique. Maybe mirroring the shape of the hilt of the Master Sword or with a design that mirrors the green "braiding" on the grip Also I never wore the Ancient Hero's Aspect either. I wore it once just to see what it looked like, then took it off and never looked back
I read a post somewhere where someone pointed out the parallels between the light dragon's horns and naydra's horns, and the same with the demon dragon and dinraal And following that trend I think a dragon or zonai Link might have one horn, similar to how farosh has one horn! Triforce of courage and all that :]
This looks amazing! And the fact that he has Mineru's secret stone makes me wish he was the Sage of Spirit. I mean, Link is the 5th champion, and Mineru is the 5th sage. Perfect.
@@matthewboire6843 I think they are actually using a switch emulator and just modded it with that. I don't fully know though, and I don't know how to mod either a switch or a switch emulator, I just assume the emulator would be easier to mod
The "zonai" Link we got was truly a disappointment. I looks more like a human-dog hybrid but mummified than a Zonai based on how we see them in cutscenes. The mod did it so much better. Sad seeing Nintendo drop the ball on these things so hard. The rest of the game was an absolute banger tho, just want to note while I have complaints I love the game.
@@undefinederror40404that's because this isn't supposed to be a zonai. The aspect is a representation of the hero 10'000 years before BOTW/TOTK, who fought alongside the divine beasts to seal calamity. This was another time in Hyrule's history, where the zonai where long gone and the Sheikah were a people with powerful technology. The clothes were modeled after the tapestry in Impa's house. Admittedly, it's a weird choice to use this reference in TOTK where there's no reference to this conflict, and the emotionless face is kind of disappointing, but it wouldn't make much sense to make the costume a zonai one, since as far as we know, the hero didn't reincarnate as a zonai before the imprisoning war, and the species ended with Rauru and Mineru. That being said, now that we have canonical proof that there was a reincarnation of the hero who wasn't a hylian, we need a game where Link is another species.
The idea of Link getting to keep Mineru's secret stone is so sweet to me actually! It makes a good degree of sense too, since the New Sages and Zelda (presumably) got to keep their stones. It would have been really cool if Link had to forms in the game, a Zonai form and his human form. The Zonai form is what allows you to use the abilities, while human Link lets you interact with the characters normally. I do think that Link's horns should be a little more unique, but I LOVE that they glow! Makes me kind of wish that Zelda kept some of her Light Dragon features in her human form.
Gotta love how a modder makes it look better than what Nintendo has done. I wonder if there's a mod for Zelda to keep some dragon aspects when she reverts back into her hylian self.
This mod looks so good. I do like the original model despite it not blinking. 😅 But after looking at this, part of me wishes the finalized design was a hybrid of the Zonai mod and the original hero aspects. Since the Zonai are creature-like race with elemental properties, I potentially see it as more inspired by Wolf Link while having the greenish fur and marks of the original. A cool head-cannon for this design would be Link meets the spirit of the ancient hero that fought the calamity 10000 years ago. He tells Link about his stone, the Tear of Courage, and how its power can only be used by someone with incredible courage; sensing it in him, he gives Link the stone and it allows him to become a Zonai ☺️ Just some food for thought but this mod has lots of potential
The ancient heroes aspect is really weird anyway. He's from the battle with the calamity 90,000 years after the Imprisoning war, is from the "ancient warrior tribe" Zonai in botw, but is given to you upon completion of all shrines which were made 100,000 years ago
My theory is before Minerus body dies and she has to place her spirit in the Purah Pad she creates the hero's aspect or asks her Steward bots to make them, because she probably has a lot of those bots and there obviously was a period of time before major masses of land were lifted into the sky Edit: As for the hero being a Zonai tho a lot of people theorized he's actually a cousin to the Zonai (basically under the same species of people just a different race) like the Lomei who resided in the depths or is a just a lower class, more average Zonai who also resided in the depths
The horns are cool, but they don't make sense lorewise I think The secret stone also doesn't make sense for me And the hair should have stayed red so it would still represent the ancient hero while also being Link Aside from all of that, it is a really cool mod
The creator of this mod has just released a mod of instead just the arm getting replaced, now it's entirely replaced Link as you had thought of. I've been playing around with the mod on a new playthrough, and it is so awesome. Cheers!
To be fair, the sample size of Zonai we got is 2, and the both of THEM are related. I think this looks awesome, but doesn't necessarily make Link look more "Zonai", just more Rauru. I took the look of The Hero's Aspect to infer the Zonai were all of different animal types. Yes, this LOOKS better, but poor Link gets written out of history looking like that, too... 🐈🤷🏽♂️🐩
I feel that because Rauru and minuru are royals they look different than the everyday zonai. Which is why The ancient hero looks the way he does. Just an average zonai
The zonai were long gone when the ancient hero arised. Ganondorf mentions that Rauru and Mineru are the last of their species, and the ancient hero fights calamity with sheikah technology that we don't even see a bit of in the time of the zonai
@@caihly2443 I like the idea that the Ancient Hero was something completely different. Makes the world feel more expansive when not everything is explained.
While I do agree that this looks better and more like the Zonai we know, I definitely think the Ancient Hero's design differences have an intentional aspect to it that they never got into, lore-wise. Part of that is intentional; mystery created intrigue. There's definitely a reason the ancient hero looks so different... And there are various things we know about the Zonai from the game's own lore. They kind of died off after Rauru's and Mineru's sacrifices. But obviously, we know that Sonic and Rauru had to have had a child before their deaths (because Zelda is eventually descended from them), and consideing that union was between a Human and a Zonai, the resulting child would have traits from both. We also know that Gerudo tend to have red hair and that's always been something that took my interest with the ancient Hero. While it may not ever be confirmed, I think there's a mix between Hylian, Zonai and Gerudo lineage in the Ancient Hero's blood, hence him looking the way he does.
The ancient hero isn’t necessarily a Zonai or even from the same tribe as Rauru if they were. It’s an interesting mod but the dead stare aside the ancient hero clearly has something else going on
Besides the dead stare, I think one of the problems the ancient hero has are the weird proportions they decided to give him. The head is super tiny if you compare it to Link’s, for example, and the feet look like weird heels because they didn’t want to commit to an actual digitigrade look
@@caihly2443 I accidentally made a reply to a different comment that you also replied to, and they pretty much had exact same first sentence, but I didn't even see your reply before I wrote it. 🤣 (btw you replied first)
i would love this to be on the same level as the Wolf Link Mod KemoPassion I really want to see more Zonai, Loved the look of the race ever since I first saw Rauru!
I'm still not sure that the ancient hero was meant to be 100% zonai, they were most likely a hybrid. But the model we got with the ancient hero's aspect definitely just looks like a first draft of the character design for the zonai. Overall this mod looks so much better, but there should be an option for the hair to be red
Everything about this mod is AMAZING and I have to wonder why the original developers didn't go this route instead of the dead looking abomination that we got ingame...
it would've been cool if the mod made his hair yellow instead of white but otherwise that's waaay much better looking ancient hero's armor rendition then the eyesore we originally got. I mean it doesn't even look like a zonai anyway
I get that the ancient hero’s aspect is supposed to be a zonai mixed with a human but like, why does he look like that, it would’ve been so much better if they put more details and expressions, yk since you have to complete 50% of the game to get it
this makes me wish the next zelda game link transforms into a zonai or at the very least transform into zora or the rito becouse it would be awesome if he somehow for any reason become one of the people as i do love the transformation magic in majora's mask or in the game i don't remember at the moment he transform into a wolf forcefully at first
Considering how the Ancient Hero wasn't even a true Zonai, I prefer the regular version because I like lore accurate things. I'm a game theorist at heart. But besides all that, if the lore were different, I would love this mod. Even I can accept that Link looks amazing in this mod.
Thank you for adressing the issues I have with this armor set. But if I mod totk i would probably just use Wolf link cause they are no longer in the game :(
It’s a really cool mod. And I say this as someone who doesn’t really like the designs of the Zonai in general. Now I need this same modder to go back and mod some expressions onto Mineru.
cracks me up that you didn't notice the horns being the same until you were literally on the light dragon's head 😂😂 that was the very first thing inoticed when you showed the mod at 0:40
there is a mod im using where it turns link into an anthro wolf link and u can wear most of the armor sets for him. XD and yes there is a mod that makes u play thru the game using zonai link, the creator made it so u can do that for the newest 1 they released
It would have been WAY better if the aspect was just a chest piece that changed your whole look. But, you can still equip other armor on your head or feet and it won’t change your look. That would be way better
Its pretty sick, if a little bit busy design-wise. But it definitely feels more consistent with the other zonai - though I think I actually prefer the eerie original ancient heroes aspect
Well, it's official. Link has become a FURRY! /j All joking aside this is an incredible mod, and i'd also love to see it being a pure replacement of Link's model. Rauru giving Link both his arm plus the Zonai secret stone of Spirit which turns him INTO a Zonai is like. The coolest headcanon ever, and god Link just looks so cute as a Zonai
Omg 😍😍😍😍the need to update this on nintendo. I just fallen in love to this new mod version of sonai outfit…new face… I so wish it would be available on the game a redy
Wish he still had red hair to reference the BotW tapestry, but this is SO much better than the weird furry dog armor that we already have
So the weird furry goat thing is much better

and the red hair? also... why looks like a Royal Zonan? the hero is not descendant from gods or royal family
We needed this Zonai Link!!!
I can’t believe that a modder can model better than the creators/Nintendo
the anceint hero looks like they gave up halfway while working on it, it's likely it was a beta design for the zonai, which makes kinda sad.
I still think the ancient heros aspect is a completely different race. Theres no way that cursed thing is a zonai lol
there is a mod im using where it turns link into an anthro wolf link and u can wear most of the armor sets for him. XD
and yes there is a mod that makes u play thru the game using zonai link, the creator made it so u can do that for the newest 1 they released
It would have been WAY better if the aspect was just a chest piece that changed your whole look. But, you can still equip other armor on your head or feet and it won’t change your look. That would be way better
Its pretty sick, if a little bit busy design-wise. But it definitely feels more consistent with the other zonai - though I think I actually prefer the eerie original ancient heroes aspect
The second I saw Ancient Hero'd Aspect looks: *I like to move it move it!*
Well, it's official. Link has become a FURRY! /j All joking aside this is an incredible mod, and i'd also love to see it being a pure replacement of Link's model. Rauru giving Link both his arm plus the Zonai secret stone of Spirit which turns him INTO a Zonai is like. The coolest headcanon ever, and god Link just looks so cute as a Zonai
The idea of a fully zonai link with different armors sounds dope, you should see the wolf link mod which does that same idea but with wolf link
If you like this mod you would love the Wolf Link mod, It replace link so you can dress It with all your costumes!
I personally think I'd prefer it without the horns, but even with them i think this is a big improvement over the original Ancient Hero's Aspect
Now see, I like the ancient heroes aspect. BUT HOLY SH8’”*( THAT GORGEOUS.
yea but technically you did wear it to take a look at it thou...
I prefer Wolf Link
I’ll have to check that one out
One thing that the TOTK team also missed out on doing was also adding some lore about the Ancient Hero.
Zelda is quivering after she sees Link like this
Omg 😍😍😍😍the need to update this on nintendo.
I just fallen in love to this new mod version of sonai outfit…new face…
I so wish it would be available on the game a redy
Ooooooh, thank god who is make this mod!!!, "thank you!"
