*cracks knuckles* Let's do this thang.
Darkseid, I refuse to comment on your big long post on the grounds that it is perfect and awesomely awesome.
I leave the personification of evil thing to Vaati,
Only problem with that, MikeP, is that Vaati is never referred to as a truly evil to the core individual, whilst Ganon, believe it or no, is. Either way, that's not a big deal.
And Davo, please, leave the left-wing propaganda about the evil president from hell that can't spell elsewhere. You just make yourself look silly.
Ganon was a freedom fighter
You mean for his race? Pssssh! He had had thoughts of hatred of Hyrule ingrained in his brain every time the sand ravaged his rockhole house. But in the end, he knew what he wanted. Power. Rule. He cared nothing for his people, it seems, even before he got the Triforce. It was nothing but an excuse from childhood, made more of an excuse when he went mad soonafter. Where were the Gerudo when he came to power? Stealing from carpenters in the desert, just the same. He wouldn't even share his treasure with them, Nabooru had to try and steal it.
Vaati was also not always evil. He became corrupted by the evil hearts of man, and thus turned on his mentor to accomplish these goals that he admired from the greedy hearts of men.
If I was a mischievous power-hungry imp, I'd get sick of my peaceful Smurf friends too. She obviously realized her power and used it to her advantage to get what man always could: power. (Yes I know it's a he, but he's a girly-man. Tis an inside joke.)
Yes, but why was he corrupted? To skimp on the more important area of plotlines
Call me biased, but that's why I was never as hooked on the 2d games.
Well Vaati is clearly gay... As for Ganon, yes he's cool but for some reason I preferred him before they turned him into a ginger. Or a human for that matter.
GIRLY MAN!!!
But I like Ganondorf as a human, gives him character!
Ganondorf didn't seem to like a lot the fact of being an evil creature in The Wind Waker, he even seems to be trying to inspire compassion in Zelda and Link, to make them see what he has suffered, he actually seems to be slightly mild with them. For example, when he tells Link that he won't kill him, or when he talks him about the desert.
Notice too that he calls himself Ganondorf (his human name), and the King calls him Ganon. Ganondorf seems to want to be still a human, he still has good feelings. He seems to be wise and cultured, probably because of his age.
Think about it, isn't it reasonable for him to get mad when the King frustrated his plans? Maybe he wanted to be a good ruler, maybe because of the experience he could have aqcuired through time.
Whoa! Well, he doesn't like the thought of being an abomination, but as we've seen of his mutations, he's not afraid to pull out the stops cause he's KOOKOO! If he killed Link the Triforce would fly away, and I see nothing compassionate about telling him that. When he talks about the desert, I think it is the boyish once-motivation he had crawling through the hate, or a ploy to distract Link.
Or, as you said, he's refined. He's sort of a Jafar, if you look at it that way. Doesn't mean he's any less evil or crazy, just refined.
And "Let the harsh rays of the sun burn forth again?" Doesn't sound like a kind ruler...
He is more collective and cunning and that in itself is more dangerous than the quick tempered Ganondorf from the Ocarina of Time.
I know. That's what I love about the WW...Ganon.
The US of A is not evil, we're not perfect, but we're the best nation on the face of the earth...
And GOD BLESS AMERICA!
I'll have to do more comments later.
