Either BotW takes place far into the future of the Adult Timeline (Post-WW and Post-ST)
OR it takes place in a new timeline that was created if WW Link died against Ganon.
If OoT can create a "game over" timeline, maybe the same applies to WW?
I really hope not, Zelda's been so stale with not introducing any new shit. It's like NSMB all over again
>>341434247
Shocking to literally no one
>>341434247
It's ganondorf you faceblind moron autist.
Ganondorf got the jewnose, king got the flat nose.
what if instead of a new branching timeline. BotW will try to REPAIR the timelines? my only evidence in this theory is
>allegedly on the heros defeat/ hyrule's decline timeline
>has koroks, implying its on the hero wins, gannon is sealed timeline
>the first game since OoT to use time travel/control shenanegans
We see link pausing time on that boulder to knock it further. obviously this game is going to have some sort of bulle-time mechanics and maybe even time-double based puzzles
there is no timeline
>>341435825
>Ganondorf
>Old man isn't green
>Or a dick
Yea...I'm gonna say you're wrong here anon
>>341435825
ganondork has red hair and darker skin. It looks more like king of red lions just grew his beard out.
I reckon it takes place in the Decline timeline, hence the similarities with the original NES game. No reason certain characters and locations can't mirror each other between timelines.
>>341436013
> >the first game since OoT to use time travel/control shenanegans
SS had the timeshift stones
>>341436131
It's literally ganondorf's jew nose. King has a flat nose

Shit was I disapointed.
it'srauru
>>341436653
Ganon is a good guy!?
>>341436235
yea but SS is the first chronologically so that woudnt do anything to repair the timelines. It just makes more sense for my theory

>OoT gannondork becomes the which king but the hero is still too young

>>341436795
Pac-man's a bad guy?!
Dude, all the time lines merged, anyone can see that. Also punished link, I'm calling it now.
>>341436653
Thought the same thing. Did anyone try just attacking him a bunch on the demo? Since they have also said you can just go straight to the end boss in an interview now too. Saw him react to Link swinging his sword and taking a bomb out near him.
>>341436783
could be this desu. really hoping it's this
Nah, I think the game is set in the fallen hero timeline if anything.
Hyrule is in decline, and you're a link that comes out of a "resurrection chamber".
So link fails in OoT and dies, gets sealed in a chamber and resurrected years later to try again.
>>341434247
No, this is BEFORE THE FLOOD
No hero in a green tunic?
"But the hero did not appear...."
Kingdom in a state of disrepair and decay?
Tall mountain tops everywhere?
This kingdom is gonna flood at the end of the game.
Just another thing I noticed that may be a hint to its timeline placement is that the Temple of Time in the demo looks exactly like the temple of time in OoT.
>>341436795
He didu nuffin.
He just preaching the Gerudo word.
>>341435193
But the latest main Zelda was SS you dingus and before that TP. To not count all the spinoffs with retarded plot settings.
>>341437000
>>341436795
They will probably explain that he exorcised the evil spirit that haunted him.
You see that spirit floating around the castle after all.
When hyrule de-flooded he probably got seperated from his evil side and put the mastersword back in the stone. Hiding his big mofo scar under his hood.
It's actually the owl from OoT
>>341437296
I would like it if we get a villain with depth like WW again and not the just evil for the sake of it badguy from TP and SS, but I doubt they have put that much effort into it.
>>341436795
In WW he didn't do anything wrong, he literally just wanted Hyrule back. He even went out of his way not to harm Link or Zelda.
>>341436795
For you.
>>341437621
But he did encourage an orc to rape a little blonde girl
What if ganondorf became the hero in the absence of the treeforce of courage?
He's got the triforce of power after all so there must be something about him.
So maybe he fought the evil ganon spirit for his entire life and is a old cave hobo now, ready to train link for his quest
>inb4 the credits have an MGS style timeline
>>341437621
WW really offended me so much.
I WANTED the green hyrule back that ganondorf wanted to ressurect.
He was a good guy in this game and daphne or what his name is was a huge dipshit asshole who flooded hyrule just to spite ganon.
And link and tetra were fucking murderers.
Seems to make sense it would be on the Wind Waker line. The map is quite similar to New Hyrule from Spirit Tracks.
But Aonuma seems intent on telling us it's the Zelda 1 Hyrule.
Link = green
Zelda= blue
Ganon = red
This game:
Link=Blue
Ganon=Green
Zelda=red and thus evil
>>341437726
>Ganondorf vs the evil wizard Ganon
Stop hitting yourself!
So it's solid link and punished ganondorf teaming up to defeat a phantom of the past?
>"Users may not actually get the full story depending on how they play this game and how they strategize and solve puzzles," producer Eiji Aonuma told Polygon. "Users are able to go to the very end goal without revealing why Link woke up the way he did and where he did. Whether you want to reveal the storyline and find out why Link woke up, or you want to just go straight to the goal, that's an option totally up to the user."
>When asked, Aonuma confirmed that a player could go directly to the final boss of the game from its opening moments if they wanted. However, he also stressed that he didn't view this as an ideal way to play.
I just saw this quote on a pruned thread. ARE WE CHRONO TRIGGER NOW? Fuck, I love this multiple playthrough shit.
>>341437285
What did Zelda SS introduce other than a gay villain and a literal cuck for comedic relief?
Never understood why so many faggots feel the need to link (fuck puns) all these games into some kind of timeline.
They're just games for fuck's sake.
Yes, some titles are direct sequels (Majoras Mask, Phantom Hourglass).
The Legend Of Zelda is essential one story told over and over again. Just like a real legend being retold again and again over time, some themes, ideas and images are consistent recurring plot points.

>>341437962
Even then, using the term sequel to describe them is kind of stupid, since Link loses all pre-established powers and becomes another blank state again, you might as-well just call it a new game in its entirety. It being a continuation has no real benefit as there's no character progression either.

The reason a "game over" timeline works when branching off of Oot is because, when taking into consideration Time Travel Theory, you basically ABANDON a timeline every time you go back in time (making it a failed timeline) and you start an all new one all over again.
>>341434247
whoa
his eye brows kinda forms an eyeball

Maybe it is Ganondorf who is trying to resist Demise's influence on him and trying to get you all you need to kill the influence before it takes him over.

There are no "game over" timelines, you just left a timeline behind when you went back to being a kid to do the bottom of the well and spirit temple entrance. If there's no backwards time travel involved, there's no splitting.

Can someone explain the Zelda franchise to me, and where to start if I only have a PC?
I've only really played Minish Cap before but I want to hit up all of the other games before this one comes out.

The mobile zelda games follow pretty similarly to how the NES/SNES games ran. My personal fav of these is Link's Awakening.
3d zelda games started with OoT and I'd say start there (with the reboot or not). My personal fav was Wind Waker.
Just hit all the big ones: A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess/Skyward Sword and you should be set, desu.
Jesus fucking christ... Everyone's already coming up with retarded theories about the old man when it's probably just this nigga. Kill yourselves.

If you want to stick to 2D play A Link to the Past, if you want 3D play Ocarnia of Time. Both are easily played using an emulator.
>>341434247
Doubt it takes place after ST. I imagine it takes place before Wind Waker in a pre-flooded, post-ganon-fucked-shit-up-Hyrule.

It really depends on if you see those two points as horns, or as tusks.
>>341439716
You can start anywhere, really. Just play the game you want. The timeline is so fucked up that it's not worth it.
But in case you want to try them according to the timeline, check pic related.
As for only having a PC, you can emulate all Zeldas but A Link Between World (3DS title, not in the pic). And that's only because the 3DS emulator is still not that good, but it has come a long way and it's better now.
As for Skyward Sword, you'll need a real wiimote on Dolphin (emulator) to play it. Have fun.

Huh, and here I thought it was just a REALLY old Ganondorf. THAT would be tossing Zelda conventions out the window, the first person Link meets is an Old Ganon instead of Impa or some other typical friendly.

I'm hopeful this will just be a Megaman Legends "Always the "End" "-like thing to Skyward Swords "Always the beginning" shit.
I mean the master sword in the title is all kinds of dented, rusted and beat to shit as if to show that even it cant stand the tests of time indefinitely. I really wouldn't be surprised if they actually do pull a "This is the end of all timelines" asshattery to mirror Skyward Swords shit that made a bunch of people butthurt.

The ruse is we believe he's the king, he's not.

It was shoehorned in just to make amiibos useful. It really does not make any sense.
>>341434247
So we all know that the link in this game may not actually be link, right? This would only be possible if Link were still alive.
What if link joined Ganondorf at the end of WW in this timeline to remove the water, and link is actually the big bad of the game?
It would explain the ruined cities, art style, and the tall mountains. The king might be the old man because he never sacrificed himself to flood the kingdom, because gdorf already removed the water.

Zelda will literally be the MGSV we wanted.
Admit it, most of you wanted MGSV for the story, it was a flop. The gameplay isn't want we fantasized we could do.
Zelda is all of it:
>proper sledding
>can use the idroid with the WiiU pad, how it was meant to feel
>multiple ways to take out enemies encampments
>plenty of new and fun gadgets
>wolf companion
>proper horse back fighting
>AN ACTUAL OPEN WORLD LIKE WE WANTED
The list goes on.
This is clearly why development was delay on Zelda, they saw what Kojima was doing with MGSV and they copied it. That's how they wanted their open world to be. Except Kojima blew his budget and Aonuma spent it on the game entirely.
>>341439225
Calamity Ganon is such a sick name. I also like the idea the Ganon has been reduced to nothing but destructive force.
They said you trade the spirit orbs with this guy and the spirit orbs have also another use or meaning in the game. Spirit orbs clearly give some sort of power as they're given to Link for accomplishing the trials only the hero can accomplish and then Link goes trading those orbs for items? There's a reason the old man wants them.

Honestly, this.
Obsessively trying to connect games that the developers clearly don't want or care to be connected is just a waste of time, and almost an insult to their creative direction.
It's a legend, and as with all legends the tales twists and changes over time.
Personally, I don't care where it fits in the timeline, but I do care about the lore of the world. There's ruins everywhere, so a civilization must have existed before this, as well as there being technology, as well as most of the world looking very empty and undeveloped.
This was way better than I was expecting, I will stop watching trailers and such, I think I've seen enough.
The only thing that would make it better is invasions.

It takes place BEFORE Wind Waker during the "No-Hero" era when Hyrule was ruined by Ganon. The royal family/Sheikah survived in secret and developed technology to forcefully revive the hero, Link. Hence the odd Matrix-esque beginning to the game and the lack of Hero's clothes.
The game will end with the flooding of Hyrule. It's a Wind Waker prequel.
>>341434247
they don't look anything alike. they're just both old dues

nintendo messed up when they made a canon zelda timeline. it restricts creativity; every zelda game should be its own story to allow for maximum creativity.
>>341444626
The games weren't intended to have a timeline.
It was only added to appeal to the autistic fans that wouldn't shut up about it.
>>341444543
i know. what's the 'cool minigame' on this new open world zelda?
>Hero is forcefully brought back from death to deal with all this shit.
I wonder what bitch is behind this.
>>341444185
This.
>>341444340
BotW Link is the Link that didn't appear before WW.
Sometime after Hyrule is flooded in WW, with Ganondorf being petrified, the water disappear, and Ganondorf is resurrected.BotW Link was supposed to fight Ganon before WW, but was already sleepingThe Master Sword is rusted because of Hyrule being entirely flooded
>>341444626
>each game having a different Link
timeline has nothing to do with this
the games also don't have any timeline in their stories
the timeline was made up to please the timeline-obsessed fans
>>341439686
>I hate vidya but post on /v/
do you not have anything better to do?
>>341444185
Absolutely not. Are you retarded?
-Hyrule has already been in ruin for ages in the new game
-The Koroks already exist in the new game and they only took that form after the flood
-There's a fucking Link in the new game and there wasn't during the age of the flood, because the Link that was supposed to save them was OoT Link, who had gone back in time
>>341444819
It would have been fine if they had only included the 3D and DS games.
>>341444854
This is a stupid theory and it's already been debunked.
>>341434247
>If OoT can create a "game over" timeline, maybe the same applies to WW?
OoT didn't create a "game over timeline", ALttP created a "Hero wins" timeline which is OoT in which another timeline is created by having Link fuck with time.
>>341444823
In all fairness, they messed up thinking that autists wouldn't take a few references here and there way too far.
>>341444852
Hylia fucks up everything she touches.
>>341444613
Skyward sword takes place before OoT. Checkmate atheists.
>>341444185
It takes place after WW, in the Hyrule left behind. Hylia, who is different than Zelda=Tetra who does shit above the sea, was left down there and now wants her land to rise again.
Is Hylia/Zelda the dumbest cunt in all of video games? Why does she constantly fuck everything up?
>>341445304
She's a woman
>>341445304
Because Link is for bully.
>>341439686
Either a Sonygger or just a gameplayfag. Either way, leave, you're not wanted here. Got shitpost in a sony thread or something, that's all you seem to want to do
>>341445304
Probably still pissed that Link Prime told her that her sword was shit.
>>341444823
>weren't intended
>wind waker and twilight princess both directly reference ocarina of time, especially ww
>>341445129
I'd really like a Zelda that dabbles in defying the goddess and what would happen as a result.
Would she just be sad and go on with this shit about people have forgotten her? Or would she go full tyrant?
>>341445304
penis envy for demise
>>341437968
Cia was the best
>>341434247
shut the fuck up about Zelda and timelines

The interconnection between all the games was ALWAYS a part of the series since the very first game, fucking retards.
You don't get to pretend it wasn't just because you were too stupid to connect the dots.
Adventure of Link was always a sequel to Legend of Zelda.
ALttP was always a prequel to it featuring a different Link.
Link's Awakening was always a sequel to ALttP featuring the same Link.
Ocarina of Time was always a distant prequel to ALttP and it SHOWS the things that happen in the backstory of ALttP.
Majora's Mask was always a sequel to OoT.
Oracle of Seasons/Ages were always a direct prequel to LA with the ending literally being the opening to LA.
Wind Waker was always a fucking obvious distant sequel to OoT and constantly talks about what happened in OoT, with the OoT sages even making an appearance. It's clearly the world of adult Link in OoT.
Twilight Princess was such an obvious sequel to OoT, *OoT Link even appears in the game*. With appearances from the Skull Kid from Majora's Mask, and the flashback showing that Ganondorf was captured before he could take over Hyrule, it's clearly the world of child Link in OoT, after he was sent back at the end of that game to warn Zelda.
I could keep fucking going with almost every single Zelda game. How is anyone too stupid to understand this?
>>341437074
That would be a depressing ass ending. All your work in the game just to kill everything.
>>341444025
Wolf Link is kinda hot
>>341445989
It would be bittersweet - sure this land is lost but at least humans get to live on. Would be a great ending.
It's the WW timeline for sure. Like, there's no question about it now.
>old man is either WW Ganon or the King of Red Lions
>Koroks
>Sea salt from the ancient sea
>Chu Chu jellies
>Ruto depicted on wall scripture
>Master Sword is rusted from its time spent submerged under the sea
>enemies explode into smoke when killed
>>341445779
all false
>*OoT Link even appears in the game*
that's just fanfic
you're just adding your own fanfic to make the connections that don't exist
The old man is definitely old man Ganon.
>>341434247
All these discusions make no sense since they found a salt gem from "the ancient ocean" in the demo.
Takes place after WW, end of the debate.
>>341443607
>Link is also a sexualized male in BotW
Its not the sexy bara I wanted in Venom, but I can take a bubble butt twink
>>341446235
I agree with this, I think it's likely after a WW timeline where Ganon wins and brings Hyrule back. So it's an alt timeline to Phantom Hourglass.
>>341438802
it's not a lantern, it's a canteen
Why is King Hyrule a nigger, and why's his daughter white?
Did he get double cucked?
>defeat Mecha Final Boss
>Old Man/Ganon is the secret Boss
Is Nintendo even trying?
>>341446179
Would be a great ending for an edgy and grimdark game with lots of violence and gore
>>341446235
>Ruto depicted on wall scripture
Do you have a screenshot?
Also calling in the "cave of resurrection" for whatever is a ruse. Link did not get reincarnated, he was artificially produced produced like a clone, to save this world. But because he's not the real hero he will fail.
>>341445779
>I could keep fucking going with almost every single Zelda game. How is anyone too stupid to understand this?
Zelda games make references to one another, sure. Some games are heavily implied to take place after or before one other game in the series. Heck, you can even link three or four games together.
However, the Zelda games aren't supposed to have a long, comprehensive timeline. Even the games that reference others don't belay any meaningful implications. The Japs at Nintendo are more focused on making good games that are accessible to children opposed to making their own Silmarillion.
Don't be an autistic spaz, anon.
>>341439225
>...The Calamity Ganon
>>341445779
Maybe you could put such effort into simulations that actually require such meticulousness...such as the world.
What you are trying to do is what intelligent people in turn apply to the world. When intelligent people play games, it's a relief from the facts and laws of the world.
Nobody really gives a shit about your zelda timeline. Your children won't give a shit. The thousand and one heavens and hells on earth don't give a shit!
>>341445779
>yfw you realize all the sages in OoT are names of the towns in Zelda II
>>341446501
This is possible, your theory is supported by the fact that the Master Sword is in a pedestal rather than Ganon's head
>>341446620
No?
>>341446578
Ganon is a good guy looking for redemption after he saw his wrongs during Wind Waker, Zelda is a selfish semen demon looking to fuck Link's boipussi no matter what happens to Hyrule.
Zelda is the secret boss.
>>341446651
>Do you have a screenshot?
I sadly do not, I saw it in the other thread when I was browsing on my phone at work
>>341446809
>those moans when she takes damage
If it takes place after the great ocean dried up, where did these fucking guardians and shrines come from? The Sheikas were extinct at the time of windwaker.
>>341445578
Hilda was cool in that respect, in that she did dirty shit for her country
>>341436757That was the original plan for the game
>>341446327
>>341446669
Every single time a new Zelda is made, Miyamoto and/or Aonuma, the directors of the games, explains how it fits in the timeline. They have done this since the very beginning, and if you weren't retarded you would know this.
The skeleton being Link was confirmed by the devs as well, and fans that paid attention expected it to be true since TP first came out.
You are literally making shit up to suit your "simple" narrative, against the direct word of the developers.
>>341440071
I don't think the sheikah are so much the Illuminati so much as they are an equivalent to the Thief series' Keepers.
>>341446728
Yeah. But if you watch the into to WW and say it was just a small reference you are just being an obtuse cunt.
>>341447047
Does it matter? You are diseased by the obsessive need to identify "references". In the pit of despair, do you "identify references" or do you take the closest rope and climb?
>>341446728
>t.fedora
Thousands of people give a shit about the Zelda timeline, otherwise there wouldn't be constant discussions of it, retard. This alone gives it more worth than whatever "meaningful activity for meaningful people such as myself" you think is worth your time.
And here's the secret: Whatever you're thinking of doesn't actually matter or have any meaning either.
>>341434247
Did anybody else catch them saying that the smoke around the castle is actually Ganon himself and not just his magic? They called him Calamity Ganon.
I can't wait to see the fucking story for this game, mainly because we'll finally get voice acted Ganon.
>>341444367
What the fuck is Gwent?
>open world re-imagining of a classic franchise
>lots of discussion about lore
It's MGS5 all over again. Hopefully Zelda will actually deliver.
>>341436013
>BotW
How will Mike and Jay fix things?
>>341447258
It's Ganon
>>341447258
Sadondorf
It takes place before WW
this is the game where the great flood happens
>>341442014
>>341447518
>>341447612
doesn't look Gerudo to me
>>341443172
Who cares. Going on an adventure with yourself sounds awesome.
>>341447642
Read the thread.
>>341447484
Probably not.
>>341447258
Ganondorf became the king of hyrule.
