So I have a
complicated relationship with the Legend of Zelda franchise, but I will say
this: I love Gorons.
When I
played Ocarina of Time I was my most motivated to save those lovable
rock-eaters, unlike some other characters who were barely present and/or rude.
There is just something so lovable about Gorons. It’s their little quirks like
trying to eat the Goron Ruby (anyone else remember that guy?) and curling up
into a ball until someone approaches that just makes them so great.
Also, their
design is amazing. The big eyes and mouth combined with the pudgy belly and
tiny legs give off a teddy bear feel. Granted, you just have to take a closer
look at those limbs to see that a Goron could crush your skull just by flexing. Oh, and let's not forget what happens when they curl into a ball and roll right into you with their jagged back. Such deadliness and cuddliness in one body is so awesome.
I wish that one day I could make a character/creature as lovable and deadly as the Gorons.
