Maybe it’s because landing in Hyrule Field at the end of the tutorial messed with my sense of geography, but I can’t look at the Great Plateau in TOTK the same way I did in BOTW. It’s as if Ganondorf’s taint has sullied it and has given it a completely different vibe from what it had in the previous game.
I think this side by side actually leads some credence to the theory that the Upheaval curse that rotted weapons removed the Sheikah shrines and technology. There's NOTHING there now. Having said that though, it's kind of a flat fan theory; Purah uses a lot of Sheikah tech still, so that kind of disproves it. I think ultimately, Nintendo didn't want to have Sheikah stuff in when Zonai was the new thing, but damn does it feel lame to not have at least a few more nods to the previous game
There is a solid theory that explains why all of the Sheikah technology disappeared in Tears of the Kingdom. The theory goes that in the time between the two games, Zelda realized that the Sheikah technology was dangerous because it was too easy to corrupt and manipulate by Ganon's "Malice" and feared that a similar evil power would arise in the future and once again corrupt and manipulate the Guardians against Hyrule. So Zelda organized the people of Hyrule and their tribes to help her bury and dismantle all of the technology. With the help of Purah and Robbie, the Sheikah towers were deactivated and thus they were re-buried underground along with all of the shrines, and the divine beasts were also deactivated and hidden underground. The guardians were called back to the pillars surrounding the castle and stored (In the book creating a champion it is explained that the guardians were stored in those huge pillars surrounding the castle that are seen in BOTW more precisely they come out of those red dots that are seen on the pillars) with all the active guardians stored the pillars were deactivated and reburied underground, and with this in the following years she and the tribes of all Hyrule dedicated themselves to collecting, dismantling and destroying all the remaining ancient technology (meaning all the deactivated and destroyed guardians that were scattered throughout Hyrule) and by the time that TOTK starts there is almost nothing left because all this collection of deactivated guardians took years, but it was completed. Zelda was absolutely right, because when Ganondorf woke up the first thing he did was exactly what Zelda feared, spreading his power, the "Gloom" throughout Hyrule, further corrupting the evil creatures that already existed and causing new, even more powerful ones to appear. If at that time the guardians had been active as happened with Ganon's Malice, now Ganondorf's Gloom would corrupt and control them. The Yiga clan was not far behind and also collected and dismantled some ancient technology (As seen in the Shrine of Life, they even took out the walls). This theory, added to the corruption and decay of weapons due to the Gloom, can perfectly explain why there is almost no Sheikah in Hyrule anymore, since only Purah and Robbie have access to Sheikah technology and what you have is quite limited. In fact, the only guardian left in all of Hyrule is the deactivated guardian above the Hatelia laboratory that belongs to Purah.
Great, now if they only put that stuff in the game and given us some lore collectables to learn about instead of us making up our own theories. But no, they wanted to do the little possible to fart out roughly the same game and charge $70 for it. SMH.
@@dr6770 Exactly, I suppose that during the development of the game Nintendo decided to leave everything up in the air because in the end they couldn't come up with a logical way to explain this and also include very little references in the game. This theory that I leave is that, just a theory but it makes a lot more sense than simply making all the ancestral technology of the Sheikah disappear out of nowhere. The only way that absolutely all the guardians, towers, shrines and divine beasts have disappeared in those years is if Zelda and the people of Hyrule have actively collaborated to achieve it (How could they have found and gotten rid of everything? Easy, through Link because Link is the only one who knew where all the shrines and guardians deactivated on the map were) it is not something that just disappears because yes and that's it, even the theory that explains that Gloom degraded everything makes some sense but by itself it can't explain everything, that's why I joined it to my own theory to give it more coherence. For example, why can't we see the Divine Beasts anymore? Simple because they were buried outside of Hyrule, that is, outside of the map, which explains why there is no trace of them, because if they were buried they are not underground. Explanations as simple as that would have helped a lot, I understand you, it's a shame that Nintendo left so many gaps, I know they wanted to create something new and not abuse the fanservice by avoiding making many references to the previous game, but damn, I never expected there to be almost nothing, even though it's the same map! Suddenly no one remembers the champions except for a very few, suddenly no one remembers the guardians or the divine beasts, suddenly everything disappears without further ado. I understand that they wanted to erase it to focus on the new but they forgot to remove the old in a coherent way because the disappearance of all the ancestral technology in TOTK simply doesn't make any sense.
That makes absolutely no sense. There were thousands of guardians scattered around hyrule. 120 shrines. The pillars around hyrule Castle alone would have taken decades to dismantle. Besides, Nintendo officially stated that the tech disappeared bc it fulfilled it's roll in helping Link destroy calamity ganon.
I honestly don't understand why Nintendo made all the shrines, towers and so on in TOTK disappear like that out of nowhere, they didn't even put at least one cinematic or message saying how they disappeared, the truth is that that's something I'll never understand 🤔 🤨😕.
They said that they disappeared because they had "accomplished" their mission and that we should not think too much about it, but that's just lame in my opinion, they treat us as idiots
TOTK game set 100 years apart, and with Ganon defeated the didn’t need the towers and shrines anymore, so it’s normal to tear them down, BOTW was about Sheika Technology, TOTK was about Zonai devices, it’s normal to disappear them, in the central outpost and the Lab in hatelia there are some Sheika remanents
Imo they could've put chasms where the divine beasts were, then put their remains on the depths, a long with some deteriorared, non-functional guardians. As for the shrine of resurrection, they should've just closed it down rather than removing its insides like that. As for the towers, it would make sense if they added construction camps where the shrines were, so we could assume that Purah ordered them to destroy the tower and use the resources to build skyview towers. And finally, for the shrines, we could say some were just kind of burried back, just like they showed up on the surface as you completed a quest, but the opposite.
@@azcheermvaBotw and Totk are not 100 years apart. It's 10 years at maximum. I saw a video where someone said the time gap to be about 7 years after doing some research.
I actually like the fan theory that the people of Hyrule went out of their way to disassemble all of the Guardians and Sheikah Towers from BotW. Considering how Ganondorf was literally underneath Hyrule Castle biding his time, it was a pretty good choice to remove one of the biggest threats that he previously used against the kingdom. Plus, it seems like they were able to recycle most of the materials when building the Skyview Towers, which are now generally in much more convenient places than the previous towers.
@@ch1efhugo134 it would be acceptable lore, if all sheikah tech would be gone. But for some reason there’s still some tech left, that’s what bothers me most.
@@filthyklownzssb4589 Well there is one guardian left. It's on top of Purah's lab. There's also the Purdah Pad which is sheikah technology. I think there are a few other examples too.
TOTK was kinda disappointing for me when it comes to the exploration, there is some new stuff to find, but most of the places are the same with little changes, it doesn't really capture the same magic BOTW had. I wish they just made a new game instead of a sequel
BOTW for the first time for me. Didn't know what things are going to be. It's an experience I wish I felt it was in TOTK being the same map. At least the new added depths, caves and Sky Islands gave me experience worth while.
I just don't understand this. I am so surprised that how gamers overall view so shallow in general. They are so visual driven. When you explore you find something. And what you find are completely different in two games. If you go same place in two games, you are gonna find two different stuff. The only reason why people think two games are same because of the engine. That's it.
how the hell did they let the Shrine of Resurrection, a really important ancient relic that saved Link's life, fall into so much disrepair? you figure that's the kind of thing you would want to protect and preserve
@@BobMcBurger1 they dismantled everything to prevent such tragedy from happening again but not everything was lost they reused/repurposed parts like what they built for skyview towers
I like to think that the King's spirit maintained it to ensure that Link would return. So after Link woke up, the King disappeared, and no one was able to maintain it. The only other people who knew about it were Impa and Purah, and I don't think either of then could make it up the Great Plateau's cliffs.
It seems all traces of the Sheikah tech have vanished in TOTK as the Towers & Shrines are gone and even the Shrine of Resurrection where you start in BOTW is now just a simple cave.
One of my favorite touches was on top of the snowy hill at the Great Plateau in TOTK you can find a headstone shine with a royal claymore standing straight up with a perfect view of the plateau and hyrule castle. If you remember in the cutscenes of Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity the royal claymore was the weapon of choice for King Rhoam(Zeldas Father). As if link and Zelda, though mainly link, returned to were his great journey started and paided respects to the man he served in life and who refused to abandon Link after death, staying by overseeing the shrine and lingering in the living world till link returned. Truthfully, it brought a tear to my eye.
@@Legendary4869-5 maybe if youre completely addicted to the gameplay loop from BOTW, it's the same game. it doubled down on its problems from the first game and added surface level differences and a boring af underworld, forgettable dungeons and a smattering of empty "sky islands" which all led to either a korok seed or another damn shrine
When the director said all the Sheikah technology vanished I presumed the guardians and divine beasts and weapons just teleported away and the sheikah towers and shrines went back underground. But for the resurrection chamber to completely vanish as if it was never in that cave is mad. Like they could have just left it there surely. Makes no sense!
For me it just makes no sense to delete all 4 divine beasts, all towers & shrines + Sheikah technology. Like come on.. the game takes place nearly 10 years after botw events... But seriously, that many things removed within in nearly 10 years would be impossible because In BOTW link is 117 years old and TOTK link is 125 years old. It hurts to see totk being this way.. Honestly if they didn't delete any of those, the game would've been much more understanding. + Additional, Sonia & Rauru should've made appearances in AOC & Botw. It makes no sense to only let them appear in Totk and Not be seen again
@alco3479totk is morning, botw is afternoon, hence the difference in shadows, you can also see how much more detailed the link is in totk compared to botw
Fr- like how do you get rid of 4 massive divine beasts ?! They're so powerful and could be helpful in Totk! This is definitely why I partially prefer botw. Some parts of totk is Interesting and cool, but some parts is a major NO NO because some stuff there shouldn't have disappeared in the first place..
I wish they would’ve kept at least one guardian lurking in the depths or something 😭. I’m nowhere near being a pro gamer but I love playing games so when I learned how to perfectly parry guardian beams I was so satisfied with myself lol.
Because it's a different season in totk than in botw. The sun is at a different position during spring compared to winter. That's why durians don't appear in the sequel, it's not their harvest season
Amazing how is the same game, but comparative it's just different, a bit but different, first on colors on grass and other many details like more nature
I am definitely a bigger fan of breath of the wild than tears of the kingdom because too me botw is just enough to make yourself feel like the story is great and you want to continue more on the game getting more hearts stamina and defeating the bosses all while your exploring rather than in tears of the kingdom where its just necessary to do so. I gotta say the exploration in tears of the kingdom is so random too me, the depths and the sky are definitely fun yes but they did us honestly dirty with just the regular map because not much has changed and the thing i only noticed was the caves which are not really much fun to explore unless your fighting or collecting some treasure. The thing i also hate about tears of the kingdom is the fact that its supposed to be a sequel all tho it leaves out a majority of content from botw and just leaves it out. There was so much potential to make tears of the kingdom legit top breath of the wild in most peoples eyes but i guess its just gonna stay the sequel. But in all seriousness these games are great but in terms of how you started its always gonna be breath of the wild for me.
They never say exactly why but it’s presumed zelda ordered all of them dismantled so they couldn’t be corrupted again by gannon, same goes for shrines and Devine beasts
@@PROJECT-NNthat makes sense, why risk Ganon trying to spread his corruption on them again. It does bother me that they didn’t explain much connection between Calamity Ganon & Ganondorf in the 2 games though.
@@LZMP60In fact, looks like they removed a lot of polygons/geometry (namely the grass) to improve performance, and that could benefit the draw distance.
@@jonlosito2004nope, BotW on Wii U was released on the same day, 3.3.2017 🙈 But it was literally a Wii U game, released on Switch simultanously with some improvements in resolution and performance, though it wasn't very much, what was improved. And that's the Region, why Nintendo had a good base to make TotK technically so much better. Because BotW was made for a weaker piece of hardware.
What the hell are you talking about? There is a full side quest that Link teaches children of the Hateno village, what happened in previous game. There is a statue of Link in the middle of Zora domain since he saved the village in previous game.

The thing i also hate about tears of the kingdom is the fact that its supposed to be a sequel all tho it leaves out a majority of content from botw and just leaves it out. There was so much potential to make tears of the kingdom legit top breath of the wild in most peoples eyes but i guess its just gonna stay the sequel. But in all seriousness these games are great but in terms of how you started its always gonna be breath of the wild for me.
Punctuation mean anything to you guy?
Why all guardians are gone?
That is a very good question
They never say exactly why but it’s presumed zelda ordered all of them dismantled so they couldn’t be corrupted again by gannon, same goes for shrines and Devine beasts
Idk, the only guardian in totk is a destroyed one on top of a lab I think
@@PROJECT-NNthat makes sense, why risk Ganon trying to spread his corruption on them again.
It does bother me that they didn’t explain much connection between Calamity Ganon & Ganondorf in the 2 games though.

The distance render in TOTK bothers me
There's more grass in botw
It's because better draw distance in TotK
@@scretchy00your comment doesn't make sense lmaoo
@@LZMP60In fact, looks like they removed a lot of polygons/geometry (namely the grass) to improve performance, and that could benefit the draw distance.
why am i so sad now
En totk siento que las distancias son más cortas
BotW looka like a WII U game...
Unm it's because it's actually a Wii U game 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
@@tamedlyneldog8210Well it came out for both Wii U & Switch at the same time. Course people bought the Switch one more.
Because it WAS on the Wii U. That was about a year before the Switch was released.
@@jonlosito2004nope, BotW on Wii U was released on the same day, 3.3.2017 🙈 But it was literally a Wii U game, released on Switch simultanously with some improvements in resolution and performance, though it wasn't very much, what was improved. And that's the Region, why Nintendo had a good base to make TotK technically so much better. Because BotW was made for a weaker piece of hardware.
The Wii U game looks like a Wii U game? Wow, isn’t that crazy?
I'm pretty sure tears of the kingdom it's an alternate timeline, not a sequel.
It is actually cool
NOSTALGIC FOR YOU FOR ME NO
BOTW >>> TOTK
BOTW is better for me don't know why, may be glitches
I believe is awful how Nintendo denied almost all the events lf BotW
The lack of anything related to the sheika tech is annoying
What the hell are you talking about? There is a full side quest that Link teaches children of the Hateno village, what happened in previous game. There is a statue of Link in the middle of Zora domain since he saved the village in previous game.
@@hododod246cool, the game itself still treats the calamity and all the events in botw as a ghost in general, the sheikah are basically erased from the world
@@hododod246that quest is the problem.
The game completely ignores that link defeated the calamity a few years ago
**Other companies recycling assets**
Everybody: "This is unacceptable, they're lazy and greedy!"
**Nintendo doing the same**
Everybody: *_silence_*
In their defense, Tears of the Kingdom was supposed to be a BotW DLC that got too big and they split it off into it's own game
@@VegetaLF7 there's no defense for this
Everybody: Yeah... Nintendo are great! And you do not understand this genius decision!
😂😂😂😂😂
Same Hyrule, Same cities, same map...for 70 dollars...
Totk sucks...
All I need is A NEW MAP IN A NEW GAME
@@VegetaLF7This actually just makes things worse lol, instead of just making a post game dlc they would really rather sell a reimagined botw but worse for 70 DOLLARS
they made it bad
Seeing BOTW and TOTK side by side I realize how lazy TOTK is! We waited six years for DLC
can't believe it was 70$
totk is so much better
nah
@ it literally is lmao way more content all that empty space in botw is actually filled with content etc there no reason to play botw
@@Kenai_25 Dude I whated for 6 years for a game that recycled most of an other games content how can you say Totk is better when it is lazy at best. It feels like they spent most of that 6 years sucking each other's cock instead of actually making a new game. They made Botw in less time and they reinvented the whole zelda series from the ground up, they have no excuse. Now people prefer Totk because «iT hAs mORe oCoNteNt» but that game is just incoherent compared to Botw. Anyways still had fun playing Totk, but it was a numbing experience for me, I would not be as mad if it was just a DLC.
legit no difference in this video
@@Kenai_25lol i know a troll when i see one
