THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD is a stellar addition to the series. But ever since its release, Breath of the Wild has plagued fans with one big question - where does this fit into the Zelda Timeline? Well, after hours of gameplay (followed by even more hours of research), I have solved the puzzle! And Breath of the Wild may reveal more about Nintendo's Zelda timeline than we could ever imagine.

Ladies and gentlemen, you may have to adjust the color of your monitors...it is definitely a yellow strap! Haha...I didn't realize it would be so controversial. Pull up the Wiki shot of it and it's pretty obvious.
(You can also judge based on the brown underpieces that Link wears as a part of that outfit as well, plus the little laces in front at his neck...the hat to me was the most obvious, though)
Also, just to clarify: A lot of people are saying "It's obvious it's Fallen Hero because Link wakes up in a Reincarnation Chamber." Technically, you can't use that as evidence here because the "Hero is Defeated" division is specifically related to Link losing at the end of Ocarina of Time against Ganon, NOT the battles described in BOTW.
Lastly, a lot of people are mentioning the appearance of the "Mirror of Twilight" in the form of the "Fragmented Monument." And that's a really good point, however, if you look at the "Fragmented Monument" in BOTW, its design is pretty strongly different from the Mirror, in particular the writing in an ancient language around the rim of the circle.
Could the timelines have united and this is at the end of them? That's actually what I was hoping for as I researched! Sadly, I just didn't feel like there was enough evidence to support that. When I stopped to look at all the evidence together as well as how Eiji Aonuma was talking about this game leading up to its launch, it felt like the team INTENDED this to be a return to that first timeline while making nods to the other games.
The Game Theorists yay first comment
The Game Theorists oops reply
The Game Theorists damn..
I just don't understand why Nintendo would put it in the downfall timeline when it says IN GAME that link has been in twilight princess. I thought that was a dead giveaway.
The Game Theorists NO IT IS NOT FALLEN HERO IT IS WHERE HERO TRIUMPANTS
“Ganondorf isn’t in the failed hero timeline”
BOTW2: “I’m about to end this whole mans career”
Gaming Blastoise It’s actually in all three but okay
@patty_12 Yeah but that was a cop out. If you actually looked at the story lore to the game then you'd see that Nintendo all along had the Downfall Timeline in mind when creating BotW. Heck even the overall theme of the game is from the Downfall Timeline.
@@ligerjgold6686 MatPat released a video proving how BOTW could be part of all 3 timelines, it takes place after Hyrule warriors which is a game where the timelines got combined, so BOTW would be part of all 3. I think BOTW is Nintendo's way of fixing the timelines once and for all, BOTW 2 is taking place shortly after BOTW so BOTW2 could be the start of a new linked timeline.
@@youtubestuff683 I thought I remembered reading something about Nintendo confirming that BOTW is all three
@@popsicIes that maybe I just know when MatPat covered it he showed it wasn't really connected to anything in any of the timelines so he suggested that hyrule warriors is the game that connects them all. You can watch his video on it to see what I'm talking about.

Botw comes after twilight princess, its confirmed by the newest botw2 trailer
I was honestly upset when I heard him say that considering during the Gerudo section of the Main Quest one of the Gerudo (I forgot if it was the ruler or the champion) explicitly says that Ganon had a Gerudo form.
I played Botw

Matpat: what do all of these outfits have in common
Me: brown sleeves
Matpat: a yellow stripe in the hat
Me:…yeah but…brown sleeves
this, especially when he says "look once more at the hat of the wild" it looks more like a lighter green compared to the rest of the hat than yellow whereas all the other yellow striped hats were very clearly yellow no matter the shading
Exactly he's so stupid lmfao
what I noticed was crosshatching on the tunic of all the failed hero timeline... which supports his theory but... I still don't think a clothing trend proves his point really.
LACK OF PANTS! ...sometimes.
Most of the time.
But if anything it does have the differently colored stripe. It's still there.
Don't be so damn jerky.

And NOW with no body to manifest in, Ganon returns to his old Ganondorf mummified body in BOTW 2!
The corps that is quite clearly the body of twighlight princess Gannon. Of the young timeline
Take that matpat
@@loo_wee that would mean botw 1 & 2 would be between the fallen and successful timeline. And where the malice is coming out of is ganons fatal stab wound from the sword of the six sages where they had their attempted execution.
Imagine if they travel through different timelines wohohoho
I'm thinking botw caps off all three timelines to make it less of a ballache
Obviously BotW is set in the fourth timeline, where Link moves to Brooklyn and becomes a plumber, leaving Hyrule to be nuked. He then assumes the new name, Luigi, and pretends to be the brother of another plumber and former carpenter, Mario. He eventually makes it to the Mushroom Kingdom and even inherits a mansion, but Peach reminds him too much of Zelda, so he leaves once again and downloads his conscience into a robot, Rock. He fights for the people of Earth, until the planet is destroyed by capitalism. Since he had changed his religion to Hinduism, he is reincarnated as a young boy who collects god-like animal-human hybrids and forces them to kill each other, but the "Pokemon" (as they are called) rebel and wipe out human civilization, reverting back to their ancient animal forms, but anthropomorphized. The powers of the Triforce grant Link a final form as a spaceship-flying fox, who flies to another galaxy after defeating the maniacal Andross and eventually dies of cardiac arrest. This timeline is called the Cucoo timeline, and it is what happens when Ganon is defeated by the ultimate superpower, poultry.
This is my favorite timeline out of all of them
i have never read something more beautiful in my life
Y'all looking at the next MatPat right here
Clap and a half.
Can confirm. My friend's brother's uncle's sister's cousin's neighbor's grandmother's pet chicken is secretly CEO of Nintendo and told me this is the true canon timeline.
Two Nintendo devs:
"People don't think gameplay comes before plot anymore, we need a
timeline."
"Hmmm, one where Link lives, one where he dies, and one where he goes back to prevent the whole plot of that title."
"Okay, we have 17+ games, how do we decide what goes where?"
"Just sort them by that ugly yellow strap Link's stupid hat."

plot twist: Nintendo announces this is a new split from the timeline where Navi got lost and never got Link on his quest, therefore stopping Ganon from ever getting past the door of time.
Your move MatPat

so zelda puts laxatives in his (ganons) wine. embarrasing him so much he goes away. this leads to the CDI games.

Matpat in 2017: I solved the timeline
Nintendo in 2019: I’m gonna do what’s called a pro gamer move
"Geography Is One Of The Least Consistent Things In *Hyrule* "
*Shows Termina*
Termina's... well... one of my dreams.😅
Isaiah Gamez i was about to say that
YA GOTTA SEPARATE THE HYRULES FROM THE TERMINA! #AHWM
Ooooooof
Ah geez Epona we ain't in Hyrule no more!
I feel like Breath of the Wild is connected to all three timelines, combining everything in one world again. (Would be cool to have a game to unite the timelines, but it's just my wishful thinking.)
That's my feeling as well
MatPat theorizes this in a video about Hyrule Champions.
Hyrule game lol but they say it's non cannon
I remember hearing somewhere that it’s confirmed all of the past games are myths and that botw is so far in the future it’s impossible to tell which stories are real and which ones are legend
@fearlessjake465 watch the video, he has very convincing points as to why it is cannon. If we've learned anything from fnaf, mat is right more than the developers themselves
12:07
Of all the Zelda's you could've chosen for a sex joke, you chose child Zelda...
I can hear the FBI gearing up now.
Hoopy Frood I thought this too lol
???
Yeah, that wasn’t his brightest moment. I still love the channel though.😅
Took me ober a year to get MatPats joke
Lol
Ok that bit at the end with the idea of Zelda being able to see the other timelines is actually a really cool idea
Except if you watch the cutscenes in BOTW, Zelda _never_ gets visions, or hears or sees spirits of any kind. Her inability to do these things, as well as lacking the sealing power, are why she sees herself as a failure and blames herself for Calamity Ganon's success in destroying Hyrule. Rather, she says that her mother, grandmother and other woman ancestors of the royal family could do such thing.
Rather, Zelda is reciting a speech that predates herself.
That would explain why she trusts him so much, even though he failed
maybe the Memorys of each Zelda is sealed with Ganon all togther - so when Ganon breaks out, the Memorys will too. Maybe this extents beyond the Timelines.
The BotW Zelda didnt got her power tho, but thats more related to the Triforce itself then to the outbreak of Ganon.
FynnFTW Zelda has always been blessed with power. In Skyward Sword, she did not have it and had magic. Also in Minish Cap and Four Swords, before the Triforce Split.
She did awakened her magic due to stress and love.
Memories from past lives sounds like something Nintendo would not add without mentioning
I'm here from the future
Ganondorf is in Breath of the Wild under Hyrule Castle
Sorry
hell yeah we stan a freaky gerudo dude for botw 2
Yep sooo hyped can't wait
Emai Lucina Blade i stan my dude
And now he shows his final form
He also fergot the quest about the twighlight portal
This video is extremely impressive, none of this evidence I can deny. I personally believe that BotW takes place so far in the future that timeline placement is pointless. I’m pretty sure that’s what the devs were aiming for, allowing for a clean slate with this era.
Thats what i thought as well
Wrong they placed this game in the downfall timeline. It's all there. Link's tunic of the wild hat final concept art has that yellow stripe. Lynels existence and finally the Sage Ruto is mention as part of Hyrule's history.
I believe that some event made all three timelines converge. there are clothes for most of the heros in the dlc and there is enough evidence to support all three
@@isitgabriel Evidence is DLC? Dude the DLC with those clothes and mask are literally none canon to the story of BotW.
it supposed to be so far that the stories of the heroes of the past (zelda games) have faded to myth
After the botw 2 trailer all I can say is. This video did not age well
not a lot of GT and FT videos do that, do they.
Let's not even bring up the ar-stay ars-way ediction-pray ideos-vay
Yup
@@curtisleblanc5897 Impressive usage of pig-latin typed out, took me five minutes to decipher.
I'll say it did. Nothing ever said that Ganon couldn't return to his Gerudo form in the failed link timeline. I think the video still stands
@@jeremycurle6880 Thanks.
Do you think the yellow stripe represents a halo for the dead hero of time?
GravitySloth Gasp *faceclap
That's a pretty interesting theory
that is..... a very good theory
yo... you're onto something with that
OMG *cheek slaps*
Matpat : “what’s so special about this outfit?”
Me: HE’S ACTUALLY SMILING!!!
Whoopsie ganondorfs corpse is in the sequel!
Wait he shed is form like he said what if was saving his old ganondorf form just Incase
@@bluejojo9026 no just no
What if its ganon's power from the child and fallen timelines. I know it sounds dumb but its possible
@@arc3510 i agree with that. Its definately possible he saved his old body. If he transformed into the demon king, then he could have left behind a shell which he could have gone back into if his demon king form failed.
Maybe botw 2 will take place in a different timeline
One correction: Spectacle Rock is in Wind Waker. It's one of the islands that creepy game host guy is at, toward the northeast corner if I remember correctly. Not saying this is a reason to doubt the theory, just pointing it out.
That's actually another theory. Look it up.
Erm I own the game. I haven't played it in a while but I do remember that. Maybe it was removed in the HD edition but trust me, that guy creeps me out enough for me to remember.
MrFr1day what would you search? I'm curious.
In Wind Waker, there's an island called Spectacle Island, which is Spectacle Rock half submerged in the Great Sea. The Great Sea is Hyrule, just magicly flooded with water.
The other games, in the Adult Timeline, don't have a Spectacle Rock because they don't take place in Hyrule. After the events of Wind Waker, Link and Zelda leave the Great Sea (Phantom Hourglass) to find a place to settle a New Hyrule (Spirit Tracks).
If BotW was in the Adult Timeline, not only would the Great Sea have to disappear, but Zelda's family would have to move back to Old Hyrule, resettle, and rebuild it.
It's called Spectacle Island in WW. The theory is it's a flooded Spectacle Rock but, to my knowledge, was never confirmed to be such. zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Spectacle_Island
There's actually only one explanation that accounts for every clue in BotW - including the things this video missed, like how the Great Deku Tree isn't found in any of the Fallen Hero Timeline, or Gorons, for that matter, plus things like the references to Twilight or sailing across the sea, and would also take into account the DLC items and Amiibos:
What if BotW is the next tie-together game?
After the timeline is split for so long, BotW is the point where they converge again. This is explained in-game through the fact that they worship the Great Goddess Hylia, instead of Din, Farore, and Nayru (which hasn't been mentioned in any other game but Skyward Sword). This would also explain why the Triforce doesn't seem to exist in BotW. The timelines all lead to BoW, no matter how OoT played out.
Things the video failed to account for:
- The Great Deku Tree isn't in any Fallen Hero games, but it is in BotW.
- Same with the Goron race. While Zoras, Rito, and Koroks can be explained, there is no Goron counterpart in the Fallen Hero timeline. The Rito is a bit of a stretch, too.
- Same for the Gerudos. Link Between Worlds has a gang of thieves in Lorule, but not in Hyrule. Canon says that Ganon wiped out the Gerudos when he won since they turned against him in OoT.
- The Mirror of Twilight can be found in BotW (the Fragmented Monument).
- The Provinces of Hyrule are first introduced in Twilight Princess (Faron, Eldin, and Lanayru)
- The Arbiter's Grounds from TP is in BotW.
- Crenel Hills from the Minish Cap is in BotW.
- Goponga Island, Kanalet Ridge, Mabe Village Ruins, Martha's Landing, Tal Tal Peak, Tabhal Woods, Ukuku Plains, and Koholit Rock from Link's Awakening are in BotW.
- Horon Lagoon is the same name as Horon Town in Oracle of Seasons
- Linebeck Island in BotW is named for the captain in Phantom Hourglass.
- Lulu Lake, Mikau Lake, Toto Lake were named for the band in Majora's Mask.
- Mount Daphnes in BotW was name for King Daphnes (King of Red Lions) from Windwaker.
- Ralis Pond was named for Prince Ralis of the Zoras from TP.
- The Divine Beasts were named for heroes of the different races: Vah Nabooris (Nabooru, OoT), Vah Rudania (Darunia, OoT), Vah Ruta (Ruto, OoT), and Vah Medoh (Medli, Windwaker).
- The Tingel, Ankel, Knuckel, and Davdi Islands are all named for the four residents of Tingle Tower in Wind Waker - Tingle, Ankle, Knuckle, and David Jr.
- The flowers around the Master Sword pedestal in BotW align with the flowers around the pedestal in Link to the Past
- and much more.
You might dismiss a few of these as trivia, but there's just as much evidence for Adult and Child timelines as there is for Fallen Hero. Nintendo officially stated that BotW takes place in the Adult Link timeline, but taking all evidence into account points to all three timelines converging here.
I haven’t had a chance to play BOTW yet (that’s my disclaimer). Here’s a few more things to ponder:
- The Dark World could be the Fallen counterpart to the Twilight Realm, as LTTP Link uses a magic mirror to escape it
- The Great Sea that exists in Adventure of Link goes far beyond Hyrule and the vast North Kingdom, and is traversed by raft & winged boots.
- That game was also the first appearance of many Sage/Hero names, which are town names in Z2AOL. This would suggest that the Goron were still remembered to some extent in the Fallen timeline, and may have been in hiding.
- Link’s Awakening has a Leviathan in the Wind Fish
So still nothing conclusive to any one timeline! My personal theories:
1) Demise/Gannon/Gannondorf “The Thief” Dragmire somehow became aware of his counterparts in the other timelines and found a way to merge his selves together in a time before BOTW, forming the “Calamity” über-Gannon. The various timelines may have become entangled as a result. If Calamity Gannon did this prior to events 100 years before, an earlier, unmentioned cataclysm may have mashed up the timelines, explaining the crossover elements in geography, characters, and lore.
2) BOTW isn’t happening during an incarnation of Link, Zelda, or Demise. Instead, it takes place in an afterlife which is shared between all timelines. Link’s 100 year sleep was actually an incarnation of the Hero, during which Gannon was sealed away and unable to return. After the Hero’s death, Link returns to the afterlife to wage war against his eternal nemesis. Here the elements from every incarnation are slowly remembered and merged into one transcendent metaphysical reality, explaining quirks specific to each timeline still showing up everywhere. (Hahaha, I know)
the gorons are in the oracle games actually which are in the downfall fallen hero timeline so get schooled.
Plus Nintendo made an official statement which ways that BotW is actually a convergence of all the timelines which could be an event that could be better explained in a future game just like how skyward sword explained how zelda and link keep on reincarnating.
gorons are in the Oracle games my guy
One nitpick: Memory scenes show Link and Zelda using their Triforce pieces. Unless you mean to say that the Triforce in its physical form is unmentioned and unseen due to all the pieces being posessed since OOT, you can't say they don't appear.
According to my knowledge, faron, eldin and lanayru were in skyward sword wich is in the start of the timeline so those places existing in both twilight princess and botw doesnt mean that theyre in the same timeline.
He needs to come back to this now that Tears of the Kingdom has Ganondorf
Nintendo definetlly has not been keeping track of their continuity from the very first game in the series.

Hyrule Warriors ?
It took me 1 and a half years to:
- Get into the Legend of Zelda Series
- Become addicted to Zelda
- Withdrawl my addiction to Zelda
- Get a Switch and Breath of the Wild
- Try to figure out the timeline by myself
- Come back to this video
So this is where my escaped clone went
*become addicted to zelda*
Ummm
You are going to eventually start cosplaying from Zelda. Trust me I was in the same boat at you when I was new to Zelda.
Uhm Zelda is my childhood, I was addicted since I was like 4, 5 or 6 years old.
I think another good piece of evidence to support this theory is that the master sword has sword beams in this game. As much as I can remember, the only games that have the master sword beam are the games that are in the down fall timeline.
Pretty sure Minish cap has it
*looks at Skyward sword*
yea but minish cap and skyward sword all appear in the renufied timeline. in the 3 spilt timelines ,he's right . it only appears in the downfall timeline
Liam White thats not the master sword. Its *skyward sword*
Damian Disbrow that's some super shitty evidence right there
Idk why but in the back of my mind I keep remembering what Urbosa said about how Ganon used to have a Gerudo form.
Yes true
recently played through the game and the dlc (but also started age of calamity so maybe its from there) but she does say that she feels responsible to help, because she is ashamed of Ganons gerudo origin.
Matpat: Is this the end?
Nintendo: well we are going to cawthon you, so yes, but actually no.
Not going to lie. I thought it was the fact that all instances of the hero's tunic in the fallen timeline had brown sleeves.
I think everybody was waiting for that shoe to drop. But no MatPat decided to go with yellow stripe.
ljfimsjhu
I thought it was the strings at the neck.
same
I thought it was his ego
Matpat:did you see it?Me: they're all wearing green?
Glen Greenia I was looking as their torsos, the ones he shows have crossing strings or whatever at the top when the others he showed didn't
I honestly thought he was saying the other Links were blonde/blonder, while the failed time line was all brunettes.
The brown underwear, actually. I don't why he decided on the yellow strap, but hey that works too.
Glen Greenia I thought it was the brown undershirt
Glen Greenia I thought it was that in the failed hero timeline, it was the hair and two stitches on the chest at first until he pointed out the yellow stripe
Who’s watching this and knowing there is a gerudo version in Zelda botw
Me. I believe that it's in the Child Timeline.
@@TheRealRidley12 Same here, it has the provinces, landmarks, and overall just makes sense.

RUN BITCH RUNNNN!!!
Lol
So nobody's gonna complain about that stripe being debatably yellow?
M. de k. Apparently I'm colorblind
M. de k. Why does it matter that they are the same yellow
pls, not another black and blue dress argument...
there's a thumbnail for the item crying out lound
It totally is light green and not yellow. The yellow in the hat of the failed hero branch is very bright yellow , the one from breath of the wild is not as yellow as it is green XD #Failtheory. Love you matpat, but it doesn't make sense.
Lol it's green
13:00 it’s not just the yellow stripe on the hat; the brown tunic sleeves are also consistent across Link’s uniform in the failed hero timeline.
Curlorly06 I'm so glad you said this cause that's what I thought he was referencing
Me too! When he built it up I was like “ohhh they all have brown sleeves!” And then he mentions the yellow stripe and I’m like “oh, okay, that too.”
furthermore, the outfit, in general, is reminiscent of that in the failed hero timeline
I actually noticed that too
Wow I just saw that
What if breadth of the wild is the end of ALL the timelines, not necessarily in the same way Matt pat proposed in the video where he claimed hyrule warriors is cannon, but in a way where no matter what timeline you follow, they ALL end up the same way, in breadth of the wild
I like this.
*mentions yellow stripe but not the brown sleves*
zelda also mentions alttp
THANK you. He also wears more shorts in that timeline as well.
He didn't mention it in the video itself, but he did in his comment. He mentioned how he only chose the yellow stripe because it was the most obvious to him.
Or the collar being joined by X stitching. Other time lines have V necks or open collars.
QuiteSeriousGameReviews ok

we don't actually know her age, and personally I've always felt like link was younger than people assumed him to be after the 7 years thing, people assumed that he was 10 before and that now he's 17, but why? he's supposed to be an adult now, but it's obviously not japans idea of what an adult is, or americas, personally, judging from his size and the typically lower consideration of what is an adult in ancient times when people used swords and such, I think he was around 6 in the beginning of ocarina, making him about 13-14 in his "adult" form which would explain why he's always so damn short. also in majoras mask he looks a bit bigger, maybe he aged a year or two, sorry for rambling.
supershawnodeseninja link was then 11 or 12 since 7 years later that means he is 18 or 19 which makes him a adult
She is 17 in BoTW
Actually, MatPat, the Zora evolving into the Rito in Wind Waker makes TONS of sense if you consider WHY did they move onto land instead of staying in the water and the answer to that is very simple: BIGGER PREDATORS!
All of the original Hyrule was completely submerged underwater because of the Great Flood and this made the waters of Zora's Domain much more open and accessible to much larger and more dangerous aquatic creatures like giant sharks and the Big Octos for them to enter the domain and EAT the Zora! This is one of the reasons why Zora normally only live in lakes and rivers instead of the open ocean; no large predators capable of hunting down the Zora. Zora are normally human-sized, so things like swarms of giant sharks, a sea monster, or a Big Octo could easily overwhelm and overpower the Zora without much effort.
So because of the safety of their home being compromised by the Great Flood and the giant marine predators, the Zora HAD to leave the sea in order to keep from being eaten into extinction. However, another problem from this: how are the Zora supposed to communicate with and travel around the outside islands without having to risk swimming through the predator riddled ocean? Air travel. By becoming the Rito and growing wings to fly, they both gain access to the other islands and gain a much safer method of travel that won't involve fewer enounters with marine predators much bigger and stronger than they are.
It's basic evolution, MatPat...
in fact the Gods changed the zora so there could not swim down to hyrule
salty water. the normal zoras cant live in that
Also take into account the lack of sunlight getting down to aquatic plants meaning the zora's main source of food would likely die off. The mixing of salt water and fresh water, as well as the pressure change would make life uninhabitable for any fish life. it's strange that even octorocs are able to survive to become big enough . . . wait.
It's been proven that water pressure dictates size of fish, there was an experiment where a bunch of fish from birth were placed in different pressure tanks, and they all grew to different sizes directly correlating with their tank's pressure.
Nintendo you clever Bastards.
The ocarina of time map actually lines up really well, the shrine of resurrection and the great plateau were somehow dropped where lake hylia used to be. And flooded all around. (Just even studying the geology and water flows around great plateau, you can tell it didn’t belong there originally)
I'm surprised you didn't mention the Oracle of Seasons/Ages true ending.
Calamity Ganon is described as "an incomplete form that Ganon assumed when he was interrupted while trying to reincarnate himself."
In the true ending to Seasons/Ages, YOU interrupt his reincarnation, which causes him to be revived as a feral beast form of Ganon, no intelligence to speak of, just pure rage and animal instinct.
What if this was the catalyst, the first step to his deterioration into his Calamity Form?
I also thought this was important
That's why I said it was the catalyst, the first step in a spiral downwards, you think about it, in ALBW, he is also feral and weakened, so much so that (SPOILERS AHEAD) Yuga was able to absorb his power and not be overwhelmed by his control.
And AoL the entire games sub-the plot is that Ganon needs Link's blood to be resurrected, and it's implied that Shadow Link is the Evil within Link's heart he is trying to manipulate, by beating Shadow Link, Ganon is once again beaten, even while already dead.
Basically, after his triumph in the Fallen Timeline, all he did was fail, repeatedly, over and over, worse and worse, causing him to weaken, and become less human each time
Exactly, 10,000 years is a long time, if I know the general Lore well, Wind Waker is supposed to be only a few hundred years after Ocarina, 10,000 years puts BotW millennia later than any other Zelda game from any timeline.
But it is implied at the end of BotW (SPOILERS AHEAD) that Ganon is attempting to regain his body, and with his face being more humanoid than Pig, it's heavily implied he is attempting to return to his Ganondorf form. Because it's shown in all other timelines, Ganon is only a Brink Form that uses a lot of magical stamina, so he's held that form for 10,000 years, and died in it countless times, he is losing power left and right, and it's very unlikely he'll ever be able to resurrect himself Post-BotW
But then after finishing off the Final Form Ganon, I had questions about Vaati in the other timelines...cos it seems Vaati's Eye form is Ganon's truest form or source of power...
Ric Pendragon Where did you get that quote from? I never saw that in the game.

@@ericgurganus5193 or it was just the funniest because of the sheer absurdity. I mean even in the same game there is a shot of Zelda after the (spoilers....kinda its 20 years old) reveal that she is Sheik, she has a moment where she tilts here head and smiles at Link. Would be pretty easy to use that one.
Lol im no expert on Photoshop cx
I clicked the timestamp and got so spooked by the sound.
Zoras live in fresh water, not salty seawater... So having them evolve into Ritos kinda makes sense.
I mean I still think it would be easier to evolve ability to survive seawater instead of fresh water than it would be to evolve the ability to fly
Al Weighs Wright then survivability because they can get eaten by big fishes
I'm pretty sure the Goddess was also involved... but I'm not sure. But the thing is, if you take a freshwater fish and put it in saltwater, it dies quickly.
So, explain Majora's Mask Zoras, please.
Sure. Canonically, Termina was simply a figment of Skull Kid's imagination and ceased to exist at the end of the game. Therefore, since it's not real, it explains how Zoras live in saltwater, how Link meets people he already knew from Hyrule, etc.

Source?
I have a come up with a theory that will change the way you think of MatPat forever.
At 1:25 MatPat reveals he has knowledge of switching identities, and says don't look up John Titor, suggesting MatPat is John Titor. Upon further research, I have found that John Titor is a time traveler.
John Titor = Time Traveler
MatPat = John Titor
MatPat = Time Traveler
BUT WAIT THERES MORE
There is one theory MatPat has been avoiding for years, and I believe the reason is that it would result in his identity being revealed. Can you guess which theory... thats right.
Doctor Who Part 3!
The Doctor = Time Traveler
MatPat = Time Traveler
MatPat = The Doctor
This is the reason why he hasn't released the video, because he doesn't want to reveal, that he, MatPatt, the theorist we all know and watch, IS THE DOCTOR.
But hey, thats just a theory, A MATPAT Theory.
Or you know, he could be hinting at the people he is going to include in Doctor Who Part 3, but thats absurd.
Awesome1 yeah that's pretty absurd. There's no way he's finishing that theory.

i liked what that dude said ,stop ruining it pls.
I don't think Matpat is daying he's the doctor, but I think he's saying it may be this John Titor guy

Hey MatPat, i hope you see this comment
SPOILERS AHEAD (but i guess if you watched the entire video you dont care whatever)
Did you ever think that maybe, BOTW is part of a converged timeline, where all the timelines eventually line up into one?
You had so much evidence for all sides, but you failed to realize this. BOTW takes place sooo much farther in time than the other games, talking about the building of the towers and the divine beasts 10,000 years ago. Never seemed to have those in any other game. Theres so much more evidence for all sides of the timeline, why not BOTW be apart of a converged 3?
ALSO, Zelda says that Ganon has given up on reincarnation and has assumed his true form, this would mean that Ganon IS NOT coming back and he sacrificed that power to achieve his true form. Another thing that Zelda says is that (if you got all the memories) once Ganaon is defeated, she can no longer hear the voices in the sword. It almost seems that the purpose of the sword has finally been fulfilled, so the power has been taken away. Now she also says that her power could have dwindled over the past 100 years, but i just dont think she realizes what it meant.
This shows that this is the end of the timeline, or at least the last Zelda game in the timeline to show Ganon
Lastly, just one little small piece of information, if time travel causes different time lines in ocarina, why doesn't it do it in skyword sword? (although im not to sure about this one, im just bringing it out there)
Edit: Ah i just read ur whole comment, i hope you do more research on this because i love this timeline
It is possible for all timelines to end with Breath of the Wild (although unlikely). However, it is impossible for them to converge because the way they all got to Breath of the Wild, their history, will all be different.
Poopin HERD I
There's also time travel stuff going on in Oracle of Ages that no one seems to remember xD
While I would love a converged timeline, it wouldn't make sense. Not really. See in the Adult timeline Link and Zelda go to a new land "New Hyrule" which has different geography and everything, which means no more Hyrule family, and possibly no more return to hyrule, which would only mean that the only references to WW and the lands above the seas would just be whatever people are there. and as far as we know of there wouldnt be anything of the WW or any games prior showing just for this reason.
This seems to make the converge almost impossible without more proof that alludes to the Adult giving more to it. I mean if we had a city or something that survived the converge or at least something other than small items, I don't see it working.

And the brown sleeves? he only has those on the failed hero timeline too, not only the yellow stripe, right?
DeltaScorch62 That's what I thought too
I had noticed the collar stitches, although one game is missing those
I'm glad someone else saw it, too!
All this time I thought the outfit was just for the Style
Honestly you COULD argue the band is a light green, and not yellow... In this scenario, the brown sleeves are more solid then the hat.
It would be cool if Nintendo put botw as the first game in the downfall timeline so the final reward in botw would be passed down to the other links
Fishy Memes that would be cool, but Zelda says that Gannon won't reincarnate
They already stated that Breath of the Wild is the last game in whatever timeline it's in.
so that would presumably make BoTW the end of the fallen hero timeline? There's something very poetic about that. A hero reincarnated again and again after his greatest failure, before finally finishing the fight, hundreds of years later.
Fishy Memes I believe they'd be broken due to the mechanics of the game.
Mind you Zelda states that Ganon gave up reincarnation rather then vowed to never use it again. And its officially confirmed that Ganon WAS trying to reincarnate once Link awoke from his slumber, but didn't have enough time. So the possibility of Ganon reincarnating in the future is very much possible; the desire is still there on his part.
And then, unfortunately for MatPat, TotK has refrences to the the child timeline such as Majora's mask, Midna's helmet, and the Fierce deity set. So Maybe it really is all the timelines.
and Ganondorf
Those items come from BoTW so let’s not credit ToTK for having them lol
In all of the failed hero timeline games Link also has a brownish red undershirt
Awesome noticing that. I Applaude you
Python78 huh, didn't know Nintendo was low key supporting this timeline idea
Not to memtion that the collar has the same stiching in the front
Python78 yep that is true
I've been supporting the downfall timeline since day 1. Also there's so much evidence it points to it
If it were in the Adult Timeline, there would be references to the great flood, or the land would be flooded. However it's not possible for it to come after Spirit Tracks due to there being no reference to the technological advances in transportation (aka the trains).
The adult timeline is completely out of the question.
There are references in BotW to a cataclysmic drought, volcanic eruptions, and an ice age causing giant whales to die suddenly and unexpectedly. And we're told that the Great Plateau is the birthplace of BotW Hyrule despite being on a giant plateau that appears in no other games (but would make sense as the landmass that the Koroks were attempting to create at the end of TWW). When more than 10,000 years have passed since the last recorded event, it makes sense that the flood wouldn't be specifically mentioned, just as it would make sense that the Imprisoning War isn't mentioned if it takes place in the fallen branch.
Not to mention the Hyrule in spirit tracks is a completely different continet that found by WW Link and tetra and a new hyrule kingdom was stablished (completely leaving behind the Triforce legend behind)
It is actually proven its inside THE ADULT timeline
Gwen Lovely but Nintendo said it comes after
In foreign versions of the game is say says sailing the high seas, but the could be a reference to links awakening
MatPat: makes video explaining why BOTW fixes the timeline
Also MatPat: has a link to the video stating how the timeline is wrong
yeah... this video fixed the problem with the tineline in the other video... thats why this video is called like that
with the release of totk, i think these games are at the wnd of every timeline. they connect them all together.
I love how his most EARTH SHATTERING, SUPER CONVINCING, FINAL EVIDENCE is a stripe on the hat that could *barely* be called yellow. Nice job.
LDS_ Link i have the game, i cheacked to make sure it was yellow and the whole wild outfit matches the others. Its legit its not hot air
LDS_ Link the game clearly takes place in the child timeline I don't know why Matt pat suggests otherwise and he also hasn't taken so much more into consideration
novablue201 !
such as.......?
To be fair, aside from the yellow stripe all the other link outfits in the Fallen Hero timeline have brown sleeves, and brown pants, which the BotW outfit has, so it's not just the stripe.
I agree it does look yellow-ish, but the rest of the outfit seems pretty accurate to what he's talking about.

Dear Matpat,
Whether or not you were serious about "le old gaem thoery" comments, you focused solely on technical quality, which misses the point of these complaints. Sure, they could be more specific, but its also doesn't change the fact that they've become unsatisfied with your content.
People aren't saying, "Wow, I hate how much the visual and audio quality has gotten so much better!".
They dislike the slow, distinct shift from learning cool scientific concepts to loosely piecing together evidence "bcz sceince" . They dislike the distance they feel when the thumbnails grow more clickbait-y and there seems to be a focus on attracting new fans rather than entertaining the loyal fans who want to see more heavy content.
Your videos are definitely not bad, however, there is a bit of a stiff plastic/hyper-commercialized feel. I know that you're a running a business and you want to extend your influence as much as possible, but I think you should consider what they're trying to say than what they are literally saying.
BUT HEY
I'M JUST A VIEWER
A SAD VIEWER
Thanks for reading.
PS. I actually liked the Sans is Ness video.
Hyetal Cosmos Great read, fully agree!
1. Good points, man. I respect you for your opinion
2. I think although he immediately made a joke about the quality, I think he was more talking about other factors. I wouldn't know which ones, but you could probably figure them out from watching him react to his old videos in one episode of GTlive (ruclips.net/video/DYBqAPH2As4/видео.html).
3. And his videos weren't clickbait-y in his golden age? Maybe not _as_ clickbait-y but still, I don't think he's changed all that much in that particular regard.
4. He's doing his best. And by my approximation about 8 million of his 8.7 million subscribers still like it. (And even then 700,000 people is a lot of dissatisfied subscribers. Just unsubscribe already, people.)
Should we really fault him for doing what he loves and getting a stable income from it? And so loudly?
Anyway. Just my take on the argument.
Hunter Zolomon i think what they meant is the composition of the thumbnail. Huge, bold text that seems to be color specific to the channel, Photoshop clipart of the topic, circles and arrows drawing attention to specific spots on the thumbnail. If you go look at the design of clickbait videos and compare it to game theory's new design, they're awfully similar.
Hyetal Cosmos I

I did that too😭
ooh man, WHY did they have to put "No." as the first response to "Did you understand?"
I have never related to something soo much in my life
I’d like to propose something: what if this game reconnects the three timelines?
That's what I'm saying
That's what I think as well. I do think the "primary" timeline that BOTW is drawn from is downfall, but I think its more likely that the event that spawned the first Calamity Ganon was the merging of all 3 timelines, which is why there are so many easter eggs/connections to every timeline in BOTW. When you look at the ancient arrows that were created from ancient sheikah technology, what exactly do they do? They appear to open up a dimensional rift that can blink some enemies out of existence. What if the Sheikah, with their advanced technology, discovered a way to peer through the different timelines using this same dimensional rifting technology? But something went wrong in their experiments, collapsing all 3 timelines together in a momentous, singularity type event. And that the result was an even more powerful version of Ganon, possibly one that consumed and took on the power of his alternate timeline counterparts? I would like to add that I have not played TOTK yet, I am literally just now playing BOTW so if this stuff is all being answered in the sequel, I don't want to know about it yet lol.

Alternate hypothesis:
The Goddess of Time realizes at some point that the timeline of Hyrule has been greatly fractured over the centuries, and decides to weave the timelines into one timeline again.

The only problem with a fusion of the timelines is that Ganondorf is sealed away in two of the timelines.

the zora history stones tells the story of Oot downfall time happened
Does a character literally mention the Twilight Princess? I haven't played the game, so maybe I missed something, but the screen caps Mat showed show literally not that. There is in fact no mention (in those shots) of the Twilight Princess specifically. So no.
Scooter Campbell Nobody actually mentions the twilight princess.
So let me get this straight. The Zora's- which are FISH PEOPLE- turned into BIRDS when the WORLD WAS COVERED IN WATER?!?!
ADRIneline Rush It's cause Ganon's aquatic men were patrolling the sea.
ADRIneline Rush yes mat pat already made that joke
ADRIneline Rush yup
Unless the Zora were a fresh-water race whereas the sea/ocean of Wind Waker was salt water, I feel like either Nintendo made a mistake or there is one or more details missing for this change to make sense.
Zoras were only found in fresh water. Throw a fresh water fish into the ocean and see how it survives.
The theory of the Rito being in the Downfall timeline isn’t very strong, so i doubt it’s true. If they were, why are they hostile? I think BoTW takes place at the end of the Child Timeline. Here’s my evidence:
- The Zora may have not been extinct, and people may have just thought they were. There are instances in real life where a species is declared extinct, only for it to pop up again in the future.
- It’s the only timeline where all 4 names of the Divine Beasts are known to the world, as Meldey only shows up in the Adult Timeline
- Zelda’s mention of the Twilight could be in reference to the Twili creatures, who were known in the Unified timeline before the split. Just because it’s not shown (yet), the Twilight Realm and the Twili probably exist in all three timelines. There’s no reason that they shouldn’t.
- Seeing the Mirror Of Twilight in BoTW should prove that’s it’s not in the Child Timeline. We know that it takes place at the end of one of the timelines, so if it’s in the Child Timeline, we shouldn’t see it as in the end of the Timeline, as it was shattered out of it’s frame into a million tiny pieces at the end of Twilight Princess, unable to be repaired. It probably exists in the other timelines like the twili. Again, there’s no reason that it shouldn’t
- Rock Salt. That’s it. ROCK SALT IS THE KEY
9:04 -"this mountain formation is only found in games in the failed era". There's an island named spectacle island in wind waker
That's an "island". Not a mountain. Big difference.
In Wind Waker, Hyrule flooded and the 'islands' are the remains of high ground. Logically, that includes mountains.
gamephreak5 Lol? Go read a geography book
Spectacle island is only _theorized_ to be spectacle rock, and it certainly doesn't have the same shape as spectacle rock, if the water in WW was removed, spectacle island would look like a large mountain that has two flat peaks, as opposed to what spectacle rock actually looks like which is two small nearly identical flat-top hills next to each other.
He even pointed to Hyrule Castle and didn't get it. Mountains and islands are one thing. Actual manmade structures are different. Those mountains would have been around since SS. TP's castle would have been around only in the CT.
Little did he know BOTW is at the end of ALL the timelines
Yep. And link isn't dead in majora's mask either and Termina is an actual place and not some fever dream (although admittedly it has its fever dream moments).
@@hikaru9624 Temrina is not an actual place. It's been revealed that it was created from the imagination of the skull kid via the power of the majora's mask. And it disappeared right after link left it when the mask's power was vanquished.
@@xxdudeyydude5106 I suggest you read your copy of Hyrule historia (and I should re-read mine to double check my facts). It's a parallel world.
@@hikaru9624 It has been retconned by the Hyrule Encyclopedia. It's just like Koholint Island now.
Termina doesn't exist anymore.
@@xxdudeyydude5106 well I best get this new version of the historia then. Care to tell me what version or volume it is/called?
Really? The strap is the first thing you notice? Not the brown sleeves, or the little strings on the chest?
Jeff Hansen you look at links chest first?
I think that strap looks more light green then anything. You would think it would be bright yellow.
The outfit is also exactly the one the he wears in the failed hero timeline. He wears that specific one through the timeline but it changes in the other two
*SLAPS ON BOTH CHEECKS*
Check the wiki, it's definitely a bright yellow.
instructions unclear: im now in prison for murder
apparently acquiring a switch isn’t a good enough reason to practise defenestration.
THE LEGEND OF MATPAT: THEORYS EVERYWHERE
Ok, hear me out. But what if the breath of the wild is the game that connects the 3 separate time lines?
IntrepidKnight Good thought
That doesn't make sense.
thats what i always thought it was. thats why calamaty ganon exists, because he's a manifestation of all of the ganon's rage from all of the timelines converged.
Commonwealth realm?
IntrepidKnight I've thought about this too. What if there was some event that tied all three timelines back together?
Who else loved the slappy scream?
I knew it was coming the first time it popped up. And yet I found myself smiling, snorting or giggling at it. Every. Single. Time.
I'm watching this video for the third time and always laugh about the slappy scream XD
J.P Cortez me I always slap myself everytime he comes
Me
It was great the first time but got a bit old after a while.
I don’t know why but I’m liking the failed hero timeline a lot more than the triumphant one. It feels like more is at stake and makes a much more interesting story and gameplay.
