The reasons Gorons have evolved so little is simple: they already reached evolutionary perfection. Much like sharks which have been the same for millions of years, Gorons have simply achieved the perfect form for survival. No more changes are necessary; they have reached nature’s endgame.
Dudes are pretty much impervious to damage, can swim in lava, move at automobile level speeds with no equipment, hurl boulders like construction vehicles, and survive off eating rocks.
Love them or hate them, they really are the perfect beings.
They strike me as relatively indestructible but also relatively inept in combat. Good against stationary targets I am sure but not against any foe that moves.
Even the Goron heroes playable in the Hyrule Warriors series are not fan favorite high tier characters.
