It is one of Link’s companions in the history of the saga.
At this point in life, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time doesn’t need too many introductions, since this has been, is and will be one of the best games in the history of video games, as well as one of the most influential, since it has various mechanics such as enemy fixation that are used by many other later games.
Be that as it may, the truth is that over the years, especially with the rise of social networks, something has been shared about the title that not too many people ended up liking. And it is that, even among Zelda fans, there is a general consensus that Navi’s character is burdensome in many moments of the game, especially when he releases his Hey! Hey! Listen!.
This is common knowledge and it got to the point that in the remake developed for Nintendo 3DS Nintendo and Grezzo chose to reduce the number of their participations. However, almost 10 years after the release of this game and with the original more than two decades behind it, it is now Shigeru Miyamoto who pronounces on the character in a way that few expected.
It has been learned that in a Japanese magazine printed in 1999, which has recently reached the Internet, the Japanese creative stated that Navi was the biggest weak point in the game, since, despite being necessary to help the player with certain puzzles, the truth is that sounds too hostile, especially when giving clues and advice repeatedly.
What is surprising is that Miyamoto has gone so far as to say that I wanted to remove Navi from the game, this being something that was not possible due to to the role that this character fulfilled in the mechanics of the game. In fact, he points out that Navie was in the game to remind players what to do if they went months without playing..
Incidentally, it should be noted that Navi was introduced in the game for mere gameplay utility., since being a brilliant entity, it served to lock on enemies in addition to the functions outlined by Miyamoto. It’s funny to think that such a character could have been eliminated, though We don’t know if this would have made Ocarina of Time a better or worse game.. What we do know is that we would have lost a meme.
