Just because it doesnt matter to you, doesnt mean others share your opinion, it matters to me, and i made this topic to get Link some more votes, but apparently i dont know what im up against.

I know your a mod, high and mighty, but your opinion doesnt mean much, so keep on asking why it matters.
Really? It matters to you that one fictional character is getting more votes than another fictional character, and in a pointless poll with zero ramifications in the real world or your life? AND you're getting snarky with everyone for calling you out on it? :?

Ok, I'm not a mod, lowly and weak.

What difference does it ultimately make, especially knowing that Link has won more than one character battle on Gamefaqs in the past?

I think its a genuine question, no snark, why are you so irritated by this?

Personally, outside of Wind Waker which I though was kinda fun solely for it's interesting setting, all LoZ games are crappy to me. And Link is one of the worst gaming characters ever, because he literally has no personality whatsoever as well as no voice.

So even though I've never heard of Drevan and only played LoL for about an hour before I gave up, I would have to vote for him between the two in a contest of which is a better character.

But I voted Shepard.

What in the world is this thread? :lol:

I'm flabbergasted that someone is genuinely upset at a gamefaqs poll.

Now LoL as a game is inferioir compared to HON or DOTA, but why would you be upset about Link loosing? He's the most boring character in the universe. Fanboyism is a cancer for the video game community. Just because a character is featured in many good games (in this context the Zelda series) does not mean that the actual character is any way interesting or well designed. A character from a mediocre or a bad game can be infinitely better as a character than the main protagonist of a really good game.
Not that it has anything to do with this, as actually well designed and interesting characters never win these polls because the little kids who make up the majority of voters never actually play games like Longest Journey and stick with voting Master Chief/Link/Mario/Commander Shepard/Altair and other bland characters from mainstream games.

Why are you so anti video game/don't have passion for games? First you say that painting a house can be as satisfying playing video games, and now you say that people shouldn't have any kind of emotional investment in their hobby/passion?

obviously it is because I think games are stupid and not worthy of consideration or discussion
