Hyrule was a land that no longer had a connection to the world, and in its long history only produced ultra-bloody wars for the Triforce. Also, restoring it as Ganon wanted would have completely ruined the way of life on the Great Sea.

As far as I can tell it's basically Anouma trying to retcon all the shit in the series he doesn't want to deal with by erasing it and then trying to come up with an excuse as to why this is somehow noble even though it makes no sense. WW is the source of all the bullshit timeline faggotry that everyone hates in how it tries to make the games connect up in it's specific bullshit way that nobody wanted.

Restoring Hyrule would change the way of life for the people on the Great Sea, and it was because of the failings of the old Hyrule Kingdom ways that led to it's destruction.

It's better for that timeline to exist without Ganon fucking everything up for the people currently alive than to restore a lost kingdom. That's why Tetra never becomes Zelda again.

>>
>>333481189
Yeah and since the Goddesses/Triforce aren't a total bitch they let ALttP's timeline not get wiped out of existence too and just go on being redeemed.

Why else would aging Link 7 years matter in OoT but no other Zelda game ever? Because in the original timeline he used the Master Sword as a kid and got BTFO. Other Links are usually younger than Adult Link in OoT when they wield the Master Sword and defeat Ganon. Only reason to freeze Link is if it's known that he'll fail.

This was figured out day one of the timeline reveal, pretty obvious once you stop being so dead set on a failed Link timeline being gameplay or lore breaking. The Downfall timeline is the original timeline that gets split because of ALttP's wish. In Ocarina of Time, the game ends with Ganondorf having never acquired the full Triforce in either Adult or Child timelines.

There is literally no reason for this. SS had time travel, so why isn't there a split when Link literally subverted history by bringing that Dragon back to life?

Time stones don't change history in the past, they duplicate the past over the present.
>>
>>333484432
Because the Triple Split is a horrible idea in general. However, for SS and OoA you could argue that those cases involve altering the timeline, whereas Zelda actively split it in OoT. However, there's no situation where the creation of the Decline Timeline makes sense.

The third timeline is pretty obvious, the only thing bad about it is how they went about it splitting it off from the other two. I hate the idea of two timelines being real splits and the third being a 'what if' situation.

The non-linear timeline existed since LTTP

>>
>>333487679
>The non-linear timeline existed since LTTP
LttP is a prequel to LoZ.

>Fuck, it's NAME is it's timeline placement
NoA

LttP being set in the past doesn't actively fuck over other stuff in the way WW does.
>>
>>333486375
Except it's not obvious. Historia says that all of OoT up until the battle atop Ganon's Tower occurs even on the Decline Timeline. The Hylian military is already gone, and if Ganon gets both Triforce pieces, that means he's killed both Link and Zelda. The world would be boned forever.

>>333487679
ALttP was a mere prequel; the series' timeline was basic and linear back then. Also, in Japan it was called "Triforce of the Gods." The NA title was made because Nintendo worried that soccer moms would freak out over the "gods" part.

Yes you do, the boomerang. it's even idiotproof since it will always hit whatever it locks onto.

There's no penalty for "losing" against a Big Octo either. I'd say Wind Waker is piss easy, but that'd be insulting to the piss.

Pretty sure you can run into a Big Octo on the way to Forest Haven (Before the Boomerang). But since they shoot you to a random spot on the map you might not be able to fight one until after you visit Greatfish.

No.

I'm too lazy to combine these into a side by side.
>>
>>333490447
Hearing about WW is one thing, but after playing it I actually got where Daphnes was coming from. Hyrule's history on the AT was basically being a war-torn shithole, and the Great Sea was free of those problems and perfectly functional. Ganon would have basically destroyed an entire world to bring back a worse one left behind by everyone for good reason. Also, with Hyrule basically being his at that point and sunlight still reaching the sunken Hyrule, Ganon would essentially be wishing away the Great Sea out of spite more than anything. He'd force Hyrule to prominence rather than simply claiming it as his land to rule.
>>
>>333490937
But, you could just wish Ganon away regardless and it would have the same effect. The king's whole argument is retarded and only makes sense of base emotional appeal.
>>
I thought he was sinking hyrule so that it and the triforce would be out of the equation and no one like ganon would try to destroy the world
>>
>>333491156
It fully prevents anyone from ever trying to access the Triforce or otherwise bring back the horrors of Hyrule again. Also, Daphnes did wish away Ganon as well.
>>
>>333491156
Probably because wishing Ganon away would be pointless, because he knows his evil will just keep coming back in a different form, especially if the Triforce is still around. So the best thing he could wish for is a better future, free from Hyrule and the Triforce.

The real question is who's Dukonkled, and why were the evil forces of Ganon attacking him?
>>
>>333491156
The idea was to erase the knowlegde of the Triforce with it. The Great Sea was without war because there was no King, no war and no Triforce to fight over since only like three demi gods on the Great sea even remembered old Hyrule.
>>
>>333491851
*without fighting
>>
The King is actually the most interesting character in the game.

He wants his kingdom back. That's why he gives the Triforce of wisdom to Zelda and makes Link acquire the Triforce of courage pieces and slay Gannon, though unsuccessfully.

But since he sees how much the surface world means to everyone by traveling around as a boat he realises that it's just his own vanity and the kingdom of hyrule is just a dead husk now. Rather than let people wage war over it for centuries, he destroys it and lets the surface dwellers live in peace.

Gannon basically sealed his own fate by having the king touch it. Without the Triforce of Power he isn't immortal anymore and doesn't need to be "sealed away" every century or whatever.
>>
>>333492118
He doesn't see shit since he's unable to go ashore.

>>333479481
Why didn't you wish to not be a faggot?

>>333492243
the islands aren't particularly big you know.

Plus he can probably astral project or whatever and was probably instrumental in seeing off the tribes that went to higher lands when Hyrule was flooded.

He was probably listening through that blue stone thing Tetra gave you.
>>
>>333492406
That whole scene made the entire game worth it, I hated it's artstyle originally, but got into it when actually playing, and then to give the OoT world a final farewell with the Kings wish just when it looked like Ganon had fucked you hard was so sweet.
>>
>>333492410
Better yet, he changed his mind because of Link's determination. I don't know if the King ruled during the time a Link existed, but it'd be nice if he changed based on how determined Link was from reaching his sister to being willing to sacrifice a normal life again to save the ocean. He saw the hero and that made him doubt this.
>>
>>333492724
>I don't know if the King ruled during the time a Link existed
I don't think so, since Hyrule was flooded specifically because there was no Link
>>
>>333481217
Then you should play soma and die
>>
>>333492830
The King of OoT's time would have definitely been dead when he took over the first time, which makes me wonder what the fuck happened between Ganon's sealing and his escape that Hyrule has a monarchy again.

It couldn't have been long otherwise there'd be another Link.

>>333493208
Zelda had a son?
Dunno.
>>
>>333493208
Zelda removed the hero's bloodline/Hero's Spirit from that timeline entirely, which is why there was no Link when Ganon broke out of the Sacred Realm.

>>333493434
wow, zelda fucked up hard

so much for having the triforce of wisdom hurt hurt
