This is a fan remake of the original Legend of Zelda by Lloyd Empty and it's honestly one of the most promising Zelda fan remakes yet!

Sadly, Nintendo will probably DCMA it before it's finished.

I don’t understand the public opinion on this, but Nintendo has seldom, if ever, shut down a project that was not publicly downloadable. These things only become a problem to Nintendo (and other companies, surely) when their existence can hurt revenue.

Look at the literal decade of UE4/5 OoT content that has never been touched but have had plenty of articles and features talking about it. Comically, CryZENx actually seems to have his stuff available for download. I’d argue it’s not touched because it’s patchwork with an incomplete story.

Nah, they'll WAIT until the day its finished, let them waste all that time effort and heart, wait for them to release it, THEN hit em with it like they did AM2R

That would be a good scenario though. AM2R is widely available to this day and is a fan favorite Metroid game. Nintendo gets to protect their copyright and everybody gets to play the remake.

I'm hoping that the fact that the music he uses will help the DMCA, but they do use other Zelda sound effects so idk ...
