Just because he crossdresses doesn't mean he's autistic, user. It's 2019.

No, but his fans are.

I will never understand why Link is so popular as a character. He's not interesting, he's mute, he has no personality. He's literally a in-universe Beat Stick who serves the royals and keeps them in power forever. Also Link has arguably the most useless Triforce Piece.

Like I get that as a controllable videogame character he does his job, but as a character I completely don't give a shit about him. The only thing Link has going for him is a decent character design so shippers and fujos use in porn. But that's it, as a character he's shit.

No, he just thinks actions are better than words. This is literally a diary entry in-game.

basically the keanu reeeves of video game, a blank character that you can project your self on to that does cool enough shit.

He's a silent protagonist. He's not supposed to have this deep and/or complex character to him. You said it yourself, he's got a good design. That's all a silent protagonist really needs.

Yes actually

He is a vessel for the player and also is androgynous so he appeals to women.

True why doesn't he make quips every five seconds

Why are people so obsessed with whether or not Link can be female? Because he's a silent character? That's fucking dumb.

WELL EXCUUUUSE ME, PRINCESS

Does this dialogue look autistic to you?

God, I hate the champion's tunic so much.

I rather have a mute than
>excuuuuuuuse me princess

He doesn't have a personality, all right, but everyone else does. And you see how they interact with him and how they react to what he does. So, even though he can be seen as a shallow character, you indirectly get some of his basic motivations and thoughts, and from there a lot of speculation about him is born, thus fueling a lot of discussion.
The real reason is that his design is god tier.

God tier? He looks like a mix of Robin Hood and Peter Pan. Not exactly revolutionary.

Something doesn't have to be new to be good, user. That's pretty basic.

>he's mute
Technically he does speak, he just doesn't have dialogue because anything he has to say is redundant for the player.

He's not mute though. Throughout the games, he actually does talk to people it's just you never hear it. You even have dialog choices in BoTW which aren't just yes or no. He just chooses not to talk unless he absolutely has to. He's actually really stoic based off of Zelda's diary.

Doesn't need to be revolutionary to be great. His design is simple, but sufficient to portrait him as an adventurer young boy/man in a fantasy world.
