@mikemccaffrey@wandering.shop One I've seen a lot is the claim that Link has "microexpressions" in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. I've cropped this image to take out his body language, and I'm not going to tell you what the person who posted this image said Link is supposedly expressing, because I want you to be able to see it without context first.

@mikemccaffrey@wandering.shop This is arguably a somewhat unfair example, because it's an animated character in a game, not a real person who's capable of subconscious changes in expression. But I think that's reasonably good evidence that at least SOME of this stuff is made up.

@BathysphereHat@mastodon.online Micro expressions are micro because they are quick changes, I don't think they apply to static images.
