@coriander i’m still reading it but i’m headdesking like every 15 seconds as they transition from the previous evocative yet clichéd image i hate onto the next evocative yet clichéd image i hate

@aschmitz the tools exist to create fonts for free (and have for a long time), and for people who make fonts regularly, even the expensive software quickly pays for itself. but as with any art, it’s one thing to do it for yourself as a passion project, and another to do it on commission for a customer. font design is very iterative and involves a lot of back-and-forth, and just knowing the number of hours involved in that i would guess you’d need at least four figures for anything like a living wage, for anything beyond just a basic latin set with no adjustments. and i wouldn’t expect designers to have so many clients as to actually book full eight-hour days (which is why they have time for passion projects), so the amount they have to charge to sustain their businesses is probably higher
nintendo is allowed to age up their characters for horny reasons but they pulled it off a lot better with purah is all i’m saying
@aescling that, or botw zelda edited it in to the story, take your pick
@aescling the deep lore cut i’m setting up here is that the reason why botw zelda’s mom called her “little bird” (a nickname later adopted by urbosa) was because it was a hereditary nickname stretching back to the first zelda, who was called that just because her dad was a large man with long eyebrows
@aescling well, you see, four chapters in is when gaepora’s wife gives birth to zelda
