    Fun fact. Wind Waker link was the only link to not literally be a reincarnated link. Instead, in order to save his sister, he went to the gods and forced them to choose him and dug up the prices of the triforce of courage from the depths of the sea.

    If anyone's confused about breath of the wild merging the timelines, think of it as a fixed point in time. No matter what happens in the 3 timelines, after an extremely long time they all end up converging on that exact version of hyrule. EG. Sea salt in the middle of the map? At some point all 3 versions of hyrule must have flooded, we just only saw one. Same goes for any other discrepancy.

    • @angelmendez-rivera351
      @angelmendez-rivera351 Год назад +78

      Yeah, the placement makes perfect sense. Breath of the Wild is one of the least confusing parts of the timeline. For me, the most confusing part is, the entirety of the Downfall Timeline's existence. Its existence makes no sense, and the placement of the games in that particular timeline also make no sense. That entire timeline is just a giant, inexplicable fever dream. The placement of Four Sword Adventures is also very unfitting and nonsensical, but at least with that, it is only one game that is out of place, not the entirety of the Child Timeline. That placement could also be fixed more easily.

      u have to remember that this timeline wasn't created in order. they really were completely random in the beginning. skyward sword is the first game in the timeline but was the 50 year anniversary game of LoZ. proof is in the pudding

      @@thunderclancat123 It would be real nice if the developers made more unique Zelda games instead of rehashing the plot of some of the games, only changing some of the characters and setting to make it seem different but otherwise, the formula feels largely the same with some games being the exception like Majora's Mask.
      Honestly, why should they bother making a timeline if each game feels largely the same in how it's structured?
      Even Skyward Sword's story feels unnecessary because you could easily swap out the setting of it taking place in the sky to it taking place on oceanic islands like Wind Waker and it would make more sense.
      Why are there people living on floating rocks in the sky where they could easily fall off in the first place?
      It makes no sense because of how dumb it sounds.
      In the Zelda lore it mentions a sacred realm in the sky where the goddesses left the triforce after they went after creating hyrule and that's allegedly what the setting is for Skyward Sword, though if it is then it feels less mystifying because common hylians inhabit the sky where the triforce is kept, so the implied Sacred Realm doesn't feel too "sacred".
      Another thing that feels redundant is the need to tell the story of the first Link and how he got his tunic uniform, there's not much grandiose about how he got it, it feels just the same like in any other Zelda game.
      I have to also mention Demise. Ganondorf was already supposed to be a reincarnation of evil like with pig Ganon, so why bother making another version of him where he looks no different than his Gerudo appearance?
      Like I said before, it feels largely redundant and this was the last game that they were using the Ocarina of Time Zelda formula because they were running dry of ideas and had to have a moment of realization that they can't making the same game structurally every time with different gameplay gimmicks, so they looked to inspiration from other games and made Breath of Wild.
      And Breath of the Wild did shake things up in a positive way. Though like with previous Zelda games the story feels somewhat similar in that it felt like an after thought.
      If Nintendo wants to create a Zelda timeline to explain events that took place, they need to start making Zelda games with more in-depth and unique stories instead the same old. "reincarnated-hero-needs-to-defeat-reincarnation-of-evil-to-save-the-world-in-an-endless-battle-that-happens-forever."
      People will get eventually bored of this type of same old story structure that they've been doing for 30+ years now.

Among the 3D games, there is also a clear discrepancy between the pre-Skyward Sword 3D games, and the 3D games including Skyward Sword and published afterwards. To put it more simply: Ocarina of Time was basically a reboot of the franchise, and Skyward Sword was basically a re-reboot of the franchise.

This franchise is ultimately no different from the Super Mario Bros. franchise in this regard. We are not looking at a Triple A game franchise from the Western continents.

      it is very scary to think about the fact that time is limited. and at first, when you are very young, you never think about it. but over time, you realize every second matters. and eventually, your time will be up. death is a mystery. maybe there is heaven where you meet your family members who have passed. maybe you will be reborn as someone or something. nothing you do will matter. because once you die, you will forget everything. your family, friends, and memories, all gone. or maybe you are stuck in a dark void, where there is nothing left. no matter what, I am not sure what I would prefer.

      @@peanutbutter6720 No it doesn't. AoC and BotW can both still happen, it's just in different timeline's thanks to Terrako traveling back in time to prevent the calamity. We've seen this before in OoT when Zelda sends Link back to the past so he can live his childhood and he prevents Ganondorf from doing anything, while the adult timeline still continues even without Link there.
      This isn't like the OG Hyrule Warriors, this can very much be canon. We just have to wait to see what Nintendo does with BotW2 and future games. To say it, "shouldn’t be considered as such" is kind of pushing it. It is very much debatable.

      Yet the only way this would be able to happen is if there was a game where someone used the Triforce to attempt, let’s say, time travel, but as a result they accidentally united the three branches into one timeline again, where a new Link travels across Hyrule completing tasks with characters, locations, and items from all three branches. Too bad that game doesn’t exist yet...

      XLDinoSaver30 /\ so Majoras Mask is a real game that is available to play, and you do, in fact, save the world from a sad homeless kid, but there is a very popular creepy pasta called Ben Drowned that is about Majoras Mask but is, in fact, fake. (I do not know much about this creepypasta but I’d assume Ben drowned) and a face is on the moon because it was summoned by Skull Kid, (who should be referred to as a skull kid as there are many skull kids, but he’s the only one who ever possessed Majoras Mask so he’s just Skull Kid) and so the magic from the mask / Majora itself makes the moon have a face. Plus I think Nintendo tried to give every 90’s kid ever nightmares for the rest of their lives.

      @@ChaseKip I have a question, I’m watching this video about the best so from every Zelda game and In the video the guy says that in link’s awakening link finds out that his environment and everyone he met and knew was all fabricated and not real, so was Zelda 1-3 all a dream or was it canon or not? Someone else also says that link gets reincarnated and I’m confused about that too, ( also to anyone else that reads this, links awakening which I’m talking about on switch, is the 4th game chronologically)

      @@JackWortham If you haven't found out already, it's not meaning that EVERYTHING he knows is fake. Simply his journey in Link's Awakening, AKA, everything and everyone on Koholint Island is a dream.

      @@JackWortham And the thing about reincarnated is presumably them talking about Skyward Sword. At the end of Skyward Sword, Link, Zelda, and a form of bad guy are forced to forever be reincarnated. Since Skyward Sword was made to be "the first game", this means that every other Link in games prior and later would be a reincarnation of SS Link.
