Oh myyyyy. Legend of Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma has shared who his favorite character in Twilight Princess is, and wouldn't you know it, it's the mature, busty bar owner, Telma. That alone is reason enough to make me giggle just a bit, but his rationale is what's truly blush-worthy.

"I kind of like the idea of being scolded by a woman like that" he says in a new behind-the-scenes video for Twilight Princess HD, before bursting out in what I assume is semi-embarrassed laughter. Also in the vid: why Link transforms into a wolf. If you ever thought that idea seemed just a little random, as though it came out of nowhere, well … you were right! Turns out Aonuma had a dream of being a wolf in a jail cell one night and decided to make that a major part of the game.

You know, I like celebrities and I used to keep a dream journal. Let's see if we can build a video game (or at least an interesting character) out of my sleep-notes. Hmmm. Looks like I wrote "the quarterback of Oz," "Adam Scott and Anna Kendrick are the same person (conspiracy)," and "Tim McGraw is made of bee larva?"

  • Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild 2 Zelda producer says "hardware evolution" lifts "restrictions" but more importantly, "greatly influences the game design"

… Yeah okay, nevermind. I'm gonna leave this to the professionals. You do you, Aonuma.
