Something I Unambiguously Love About TotK Is How They Have Re-imagined The Gibdo.

Something I unambiguously love about TotK is how they have re-imagined the Gibdo.

Previous entries in the Zelda series portrayed them as mummies, an undead enemy wrapped in bandages, often able to be set on fire for either bonus damage, or to burn away their wrappings to make them more vulnerable to damage. In the 3D games, they behave identically to another undead enemy type, the ReDead, inheriting their nightmare inducing shriek that paralyzes Link as they slowly lumber towards them for their attack.

In Tears of the Kingdom the Gibdo are visually similar to the early 3D ReDead. While they now lack their petrifying screech, they are still immensely durable, barely taking any damage from physical attacks. This durability can be stripped away, much like older Gibdo, with elemental damage.

On top of that, there are also flying variants, which have mothlike wings, further tying these already undead enemies to symbols of death. The boss version, Queen Gibdo, goes even further. Having a full on insectoid body composition.
