Going woke would kill its chances of success.

Are you aware that Zelda is a woman?
The newly announced The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, starring the princess of Hyrule herself, has been met with pushback online by gamers who are upset that The Legend of Zelda series has gone "woke." This is an unthinkable move by Nintendo, the company behind Samus of the Metroid franchise.
The point of contention isn't Zelda's existence " after all, she has been a powerful character throughout the history of The Legend of Zelda franchise, wielding different weapons and using incredible magic to help Link defeat Ganondorf. The problem vexing select male gamers about Echoes of Wisdom is that they're being asked to step directly into Zelda's position for once, a psychological leap that feels discouraging when Zelda " or any other female character " has been disregarded as having equal importance to the narrative.
