You where misunderstood, some us do pay attention when reading, and I agree 100% with you on this.
Nintendo could have easily pulled a Megaman VS. Street Fighter back with the megaman anniversary releases.
Yet they are just like, we don’t care, go home. And it’s really sad.

Sure, but this isn’t a nebulous discussion about “What is truly original.” I’m saying you could straight up take that 3D Zelda remake, change the art direction and music and it would LEGALLY be “your own shit.”

Art is iterative in nature, to what degree varies from thing to thing. But 100% original ideas and works are few and far between.
