out of ignorance and your own lack of physics understanding that Link could not have done it within the confines of physics. You were wrong. That's an argument from ignorance.Additionally, I've expaliend a hundred times how you'r insistance on the gauntlets only adding strength to his arms, and not the rest of him, is a logical fallacy. Here's why:
Link's entire body supports the pillar, in a canon cutscene. Thus, it is this strong, and either gets the power from the gauntlets OR already had it. You choose.
Link did throw the pillar. These are canon, so not defy physics, and you're using a figure of speech fallacy to try and prove your point.
You cannot make an argument from ignorance and expect to actually be right. You've also claimed, since it's apparently impossible for Link to throw the pillar (he did.) that Link's maximum strength is what it takes to lift it. You argued this in the face of a cutscene which proved otherwise.
I never once squirmed, as you put it. Every time I bring up the boots, I mention that they're misnamed and oughtta be named "Boots of misleading mass to volume ratios +5".
He shows this on several occasions, and the holder of the ower of one of the three goddesses of Hyrule is hardly a normal person. In that same game you mention, Link's sword is struck out of his hands by Ganon. That would have liquified a normal man. This is not an exception. GJ Ignoring every durability feat ever.
Link grunts when he goes fishing. All it shows is that he moved the pillar under his own power. Also he /did/ throw it. You cannot possibly actually believe this feat is "toonforce" either. Once again, you stare straight at a cutscene, decide you don't like it, and scream toonforce. This Link doesn't even have the WW design, where's your argument in favour of it being roonforce? Claiming it as such does not make it so. OoT is a very serious game.
so, the short version? You're wrong, just very stubborn.
War also does puzzles in his game, most stolen directly from Zelda. Hey, wait a second... You're making an argument from gameplay! /eyeroll. [/B]
Thats not a counter argument. Thats you claiming that the cutscene is canon, you fail to outline where it "cannot" be toonforce despite the character being a toon, acting like one etc.
Ok you just made a statement and called me ignorant but that does not make it true or invalidate what I said, you did not counter this either. And I am sorry, but the screenshot 5L gave us shows that the game itself says it flows power into his arms (their gauntlets dur, not a whole suit of armour).
A fiction does not have to be logical and this fiction does a lot of illogical nonsense hence the toonforce, you saying "it happened in a cutscene" does not counter the fact its toonforce or that its illogical. Your desperate hope for it being seen as real is not a counter argument.
Their not the choices, other choices could be that the game did not take calculations on the granite, the size of the block and the developers just added it to show strength, not a specific amount or to overhype him to your levels. Another choice could be its toonforce, or close to it and is not physically serious, it does not have to be for the game, only for your argument.
No, I argued that if were talking physical truths(obviously not what the game is focusing on but you seem to want to ignore your own fiction) then if he can just about lift it that far off the ground he could never throw it. Sure he did, but then thats going by the fact its not supposed to be taken seriously, your argument is apprently all games reflect your arguments? sorry but thats not how it works. You cant make exceptions, add strength/durability just because you think it should work to your argument.
Misnamed based on the logical fallacy your making by claiming all games need to be logical even when shown to be illogical? for the sake of your arguments again? "sigh"
YOUR GANON based on your exceptions, logical fallacies and instience on argueing with the games own logic (or lack of) would do that, Ganon by himself has shown very little strength feats, his best are smashing rocks and distegrating equelly featless entities.
No you stare at a cutscene, decide some of its logical and then add whats missing, this is not how fiction works I am afraid. Toonforce is not just design, its doing a feat against logic/physics, which it would be without your (not the games) excemptions.
No in short youve made LoZ into your LoZ where all the logic is based on what you think makes sense and therefore you made calculations which would shatter without exceptions you made, not the game.
The whole game is based on Link finding items and passing puzzles, Link is not a "smash and kill everything I see" like DMC/GoW pretty much is. Your undermining the games baseline construct and Link needing millions of items in his games woudl be contradicted by your super durability/strength/speed feats you think he apprently has.
You pretty much dont like how LoZ works, whether its for or against certain types of logic or toonforce and assume everything is realistic just because it helps your arguments in threads. You then disregard opinions of people who have also played the games and think your the one who is correct? just because you think calculations based solely on your version of LoZ being the correct one is evidence to refute them? pffff....

Even if his arguments were wrong(which I don't think they are) this entire argument here is saying that every single game character ever is using toonforce because they all have the exact same mechanisms in place in their games. So this is not you proving him wrong, this is you saying that: Even though the character clearly did a feat it's impossible because it would be impossible in real life.You are the one who has proven yourself not to be taken seriously in any manner whatsoever. Other people have made arguments that are 9001 times better against Shin's assessment of Link's strength than you have here. Please take like two days to really ponder what you're going to post before you do it. You just end up looking really pathetic, a lot.
Most games make their own exceptions, Dante is a demon and uses magic, therefore we can sort of belive he can do stupid feats. Kain is a vampire who uses magic and supernatural power, likewise. Kratos is a demigod with power throughout his body....you see where I am going? Link in Screampastes arguments is based on his view of LoZ. You just said Screampaste is wrong using math....ty
Your just complaining now, a little rant because you dont have argument to counter me? thanks for helping Screampaste shovel up his own diseased remains of an argument.....seriously he does not "need" you attempting to help him.
