Why does Ganondorf have organ magic? Seriously where does the organ in OoT disappear to?

>>149705126
Saria will.

>>149705886
Ganondorf stores it away the same way that Link stores away his dozens of heavy devices.

So I guess we know now where Breath of the Wild's huge budget must come from, and why Nintendo dropped the whole "dual-screen" mechanic, as well as why the game was delayed. It's not because they made new discoveries, this game was repurposed into the NX's flagship title.

The system is literally a Sheikah Slate incarnate. Right down to the way you have to dock it to display on a TV, like Link has to dock it to gather information.

Still don't know if this is a good or bad thing.

Ganondorf would have still attacked Hyrule Castle regardless and taken over.

But her design though anon, I just find it, not ugly really, but not great. But personal opinions and all that.

>>149706137

>Can we just drop all pretense of this being any kind of official measure of popularity?
That was never the purpose of the bracket.
I did it to spicy up this general a bitand nothing else.
The "official" tone I gave it is highly ironic.
It was never meant to be something official nor an objectively accurate measure of popularity.

I find it really sad some specific waifu fans took it so personally, enough to cheat, get mad, ruin the fun for others and trying to hijack the whole bracket out of spite.
But that was expected, we are on 4chan.
That being said, the bracket will go on till the end, no matter what, cheats or not. Nothing stops this train.

And this is the last time I'll write a post about this argument. I really feel dirty trying to justify myself and it reeks of attention whoring, so this is the last time I'll do it.

You're now aware this was the last time the Master Sword did this, meaning this act right here consumed the last of her essence.

Meanwhile Ghirahim was transferred to the Trident of Power to be a new counter to the Master Sword, so he still 'lives'.

>>149711296
You're aware now that the Master Sword does that in every game including Wind Waker and Twilight Princess when near Ganon.

We're in a 3D Zelda, but you'll only ever see us from the point of 2D.
You cannot avoid us, or stop us, but your movement controls us.
You cannot talk to us, capture us, or so much as name us.

What are we?

It was so I could do the extra stuff within it to to get more screenshots. Besides I have no problem with the GBA version, while I understand why some people would get annoyed, especially when it comes to the Young Link voice, it doesn't personally bother me, I do however prefer the SNES voice.

>>149706097
I fucking hope not and I'm admitting this even though the Hero of Time is my all-time favorite Link.

It would feel too much like forced nostalgia and fanservice. Nintendo had their chance to create that third finale Hero of Time game, but now it's a case of too little; too late.

They would be better off making a direct sequel to TP in this regard.

Which sage died in TP?

>>149720197
Water Sage. It's not Ruto though. I always took that the Sages in TP are the original ancient Sages, and those spirits/beings enter into the ones we know from OoT to awaken them.

Rauru is a weird exception since he says he's an Ancient Sage as well, so maybe they can switch between the two?

>>149720343
I think you're right with the first assumption, they basically power the sages in OoT, Rauru is just bridging the gap.

Maybe Ganondorf was afraid of the job getting re-staffed. A full set could have sealed him away.

They all manage to kill Ganon when he could only seal him. (WW can be argued). Hell one of them manages to kill him twice.

I'm assuming yes, it's by the Nintendo Dream staff.

>>149720416
Yeah, it would make sense considering the differences. The OoT Sages weren't awakened in the Child Timeline either.
>>149720740
I don't know if they are actual descendants though. Like the Kokiri/Koroks for instance, I don't think they can actually breed, but maybe their descendants come from the same tree or seedlings or something.

Then you have the problem with the FSA Sages and Downfall Sages, where the majority of them are Hylian outside of Queen Oren and Rosso (who appears to be half Goron).

I think just certain people awaken to be Sages and that's that. Like Irene's grandmother (who I assume is Maple, the little assistant from ALttP) isn't a Sage, but Irene is.

I think it's just people who happen to awaken as Sages, and they're 'descendants' in the same way TP Link is the 'son/heir' of the Hero's Shade.

I highly doubt it'll be weaker than a PS3. While I know Nintendo does do things quite often, I don't think they're that stupid. The Wii U is already on par with the PS3/360 as far as some games go, I can't imagine they'd go that far backwards, especially when one of the selling points is BotW, it'd likely look and run worse than the Wii U version. That's not a good PR move, let alone a good move period.

I wish I could find some art of Zelda standing over Link's resurrection chamber, in tears, begging him to open his eyes.

I just want to see it when I listen to her sad voice during the intro for the feels it will give me.

Why would it take so long for Link to wake up then?

>>149729963
Ganon stays sealed until LTTP. No room for a midquel in the story.

>>149730204
I dunno I've never been resurrected before, but judging on how fucked up hyrule is because of Ganon and knowing Link was involved in it I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say he got his ass handed to him and it took a while for that trauma to heal, you gotta remember Link had amnesia in this game.

>>149730484

Ganondorf has been sealed in a bunch of games oot, ww, tp, etc. Your point doesn't mean much, he always gets out. It just means he gets placed back into another seal.

>>149730484
This is set hundreds of year after AoL

>>149731102
Ganondorf was sealed on OOT. He was killed in WW, TP, and LTTP. 1

>>149730484
The master sword also sleeps again forever in LttP. Doesn't stop them from using it again in LBW

>>149731712
LTTP uses OOT as its backstory. It does not leave room for Ganon in the middle.

>>149731707
The point was he was sealed in those games but got out.

WW escaped the flood

TP escaped the twilight realm

>>149732414
Those games do not float around generically. Ganon is in the condition he was in for specific reasons that the games included.

>>149732752
Botw is no different, if this is the precursor to alttp it will still fit. Right now hyrule is in a bad state, we don't know how the citys/towns are doing in botw, but judging by hyrule castle they aren't going to fair much better.

In a alttp the castle was in a much better shape so were the towns even though ganon influence was felt across the land.

Botw is different though ever since the calamity took place hyrule has been going downhill and ganon is even more of a threat this time because he wasn't sealed in another realm, but in hyrule castle itself, making his influence that much detrimental to the land.

If this game is the one that explains how he ended up in the dark world and made it his own it would still fit alttp story.

I'm betting Breath of the Wild takes place in the Adult timeline a ways after Spirit Tracks.

>>149734992
Hyrule was buried under the sea forever due to the king's wish at the end of ww, they found a new land and called it new hyrule in ST.

Even if the water receded in that timeline after ST the temple of time wouldn't be where it is in botw due to them building the castle over the temple of time in WW. If it was the adult timeline we are seeing in botw the castle would be where the temple of time is right now.

I would also mentioned they killed Ganondorf in WW, but they find ways to bring him back from the dead like in Ooa/Oos

>>149734882
I don't know why you want to try cram an extra game between OOT and LttP, when LttP clearly leaves no room in the Imprisoning War for there to be an intermediate escape. OOT already covers everything that LttP includes, especially the Dark World.

>>149735721
i'm sure ganon wasn't killed in WW, he got sealed away(turned to stone)

>>149736173
Look at the timeline chart in the HH, on the defeated timeline side after link is defeated there's a annotation that says "sealing war" before it gets to alttp

I would like to believe Nintendo might want to show how link lost his battle during the 3rd split which is why they mentioned that you will be recovering his memories in botw.

The sealing war describes the hero rising from the ranks of the hyule knights to defeat ganon, this could very well be the sealing war.

From the information presented to us this is the most likely scenario

>>149736871
He's dead. It's just a bloodless cartoon death. Dead with no triforce pieces. One the bottom of the sea. Half a world away from New Hyrule.

>>149736871
Ganon was defeated in a similar fashion as he was in a TP in which case he died, I'm not saying he wasn't sealed, it could be possible, just that since he was impaled in TP and died I think a headshot would do the same in WW.

>>149737119
>>149737223
well i'm not really sure why i got to the conclusion that he never died, i think i read it somewhere but maybe it was because he kept talking even after he was impaled

>>149735721
Wishes aren't forever with the Triforce, only to that person dies. The Triforce itself says this at the end of ALttP and it's mentioned a few times within it.

I don't think it's the adult timeline by any means, I think it's either in between OoT/ALttP with some slight retcons or MM and TP with some slight retcons.

But Triforce wishes don't last forever. It's only a problem with Ganondorf due to his immortality or seemingly having immortality. Though Daphnes could also be immortal considering the length he's been around, or he's just a weird ghost, considering how he moves around and possesses a boat. But then you wonder if sealing Hyrule and giving the generation to the Hero of Winds and Tetra/Zelda wasn't his Song of Healing too.

>>149737565
They do that in movies too anon, it's for dramatic effect

>>149737537
>it could mean him being sealed in hyrule castle like he is in botw or the events that are about to take place in botw
No, it means that after Link was defeated, there was a war against Ganon that ended with him IMPRISONED in the Dark World.

Then people wanted the Triforce power and went into the Dark World to never return, because they got turned into animals and shit, then the King ordered to seal the Dark Realm and Aganhim shows up, fucks up shit and ALTTP happens.

I wonder what a Hyrule Warriors timeline would look like. Because while it's in it's own timeline, it still has to connect with all the games, I don't believe she's ripping all these characters from the main timelines, because that'd still create problems. All the Links and stuff would have to come from the spin-off timeline and their timeline splits.
>>149737281
That was the case at one point, but now due to TP and WW causing ALttP to be forced into a third timeline and for that to make sense, then OoT=IW had to be retconned with the Historia.

They should have put ALttP into a branching timeline from the SS Demise/Imprisoned Paradox, that way you can shove as many games as you want in between those two with no real problem.

>>149737872
Bro, fucking look at the picture.

The IW happens AFTER Link loses against Ganon. It's right there in the CANON book for Zelda lore.

>>149737673
but...a sword to the head, also why is WW the only time where he is turned to stone

>>149738084
Because it was Ganondorf taking a sword to the head, killing him.

In OoT it's Ganon still with the Triforce that takes the hit, and in TP he takes the sword in the chest.

>>149738017
The only event remaining, is the actual literally sealing by the sages that Link collected in game. Literally the same sealing you saw with your own eyes while playing, with the one exception of Link being dead. You are trying to invint a set of events in the middle that are a clone of OOT's events.

>The team didn't want Saria to eclipse Zelda...too bad for all the Saria romantic fanfic writers out there! Here's the quote: Now we also have the appearance of Saria, the forest girl. Though someone else was in charge of creating her, I’ve taken a liking to her. I was, however, conscious of the fact that I had to make it so that Saria’s character didn’t eclipse Zelda’s in the series.

I think you fucked up hard on that point Miyamoto. Saria is fucking beloved by tons of people. Didn't help that she clearly had feelings for the Hero of Time either and that Zelda was a colossal fuck up and her only claim to fame is Sheik in Smash Brothers, considering Sheik doesn't do fuck all half the time either outside of teaching you some songs and running away.

>>149738328
>You are trying to invint a set of events in the middle that are a clone of OOT's events.
I'm not trying to "invint" anything here.

If link is dead, he doesn't deal the final blow, because he's absolutely, irreversibly dead and lost the final fight. So no, OoT is not the IW. After Link loses, there are events of which have almost no information other than "it happens".
They are not in any way similar to OoT. OoT ending as it is gives you insight into the Ault Timeline, where Ganon is dead, later revived and thanks to Zelda, there's no Hero, so Hyrule is flooded as per WW intro.
The other side of the coin you see if Link back in time meeting zelda for the first time, with all the knowledge of the Adult Timeline, as a trigger for the Child Timeline.

The Downfall timeline is not shown in the game at all, it's only introduced in HH as a means to enable a logical split for the Downfall games to coexist with the others.

If you don't understand what I'm saying, I can try explaining myself clearer, I know I can write up messy stuff. Just reply and I'll try to help you out with any doubts you might have.

GUYS STOP ARGUING REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

We already went over this in the last thread and decided it was too far-fetched that OoT is the IW, and there's only two timelines which diverge because Nintendo added the Oracle games in as a contingency measure!

That quote in the interview was said by the character designer and while none of the storyboard writers were present. He doesn't know what he's talking about!

>>149738873
it's canon because nintendo says so, your argument is invalid.

>>149738328
Things have been retconned anon.

OoT as the IW never made sense anyways.

>Ganon has the entire Triforce in ALttP (not just the Triforce of Power)
>Ganon brought an army to attack the Sacred Realm (this contradicts OoT where he just casually strolled behind Link and got a piece of the Triforce, not the whole)
>The King is fucking dead in OoT 7 years prior to that, the King is the one who ordered the Wise Men to seal Ganon up when he attacked

There is clearly a period in between the two that doesn't make sense. What makes sense now based on the Historia is that Ganondorf was sealed by the Seven Sages, he breaks out and takes an army to attack Hyrule Castle. Zelda's kid (likely also Daphnes in this timeline too) instead of relying on the Triforce to flood the world, fights back with the Seven Wise Men and Knights of Hyrule and seals him in the Sacred Realm.

This could be the events of BotW just fine.

>>149739019

This is why she'll never appear in a game again, same with Midna. They don't want them to eclipse their precious Zelda.

The IW doesn't include Link giving the final blow. It doesn't invoke Links deeds at all. He is a forgotten knight.

Last fight against Ganon > Link loses > Ganon still there > cue IW > Cue ALTTP

IW has not been expanded on at all. As it is right now, it only exists with no details other than there was no Hero, no flood, and Ganon ending up sealed in the Sacred Realm in order for ALTTP to happen.

>>149739528
The IW can't cue, there is no King, there are no Knights anymore. They're all fucking dead. Time needs to pass so there are more Knights, another King.

>>149739463
>It doesn't invoke Links deeds at all
Because he's fucking dead, not because he's a forgotten hero, where the fuck did you get the idea that a dead Link in the final fight becomes a forgotten Hero? He didn't kill the villain, he didn't become a Hero of anything, he died. Other people had to seal Ganon, that's the IW

>>149739221
Ganondorf attacks Hyrule in OOT. You are writing a fanfic escape, just so you can turn around and repeat the OOT attack and sealing.

The *LEGEND* of Zelda

>>149739653
Ganondorf attacks Hyrule Castle, yes. He does not attack the Sacred Realm, he does not attack Castle Town. He attacks nothing but the Castle. This contradicts what is known from ALttP. Where he attacked the Sacred Realm, he attacked everything, with an army. An army of minions he kills immediately afterwards, and it to this day is still contradicted as he has the entire Triforce the moment he stepped into the Sacred Realm, not just a piece, the entire thing.

It's not fanfic, it's not headcanon, it's facts from both ALttP and OoT.

>>149739702

>>149739635
>The IW can't cue, there is no King, there are no Knights anymore. They're all fucking dead. Time needs to pass so there are more Knights, another King.
We have no information as to what or how the IW happened, other than it did after Link dies in the final fight.

After Ganon is sealed, in whatever way Nintendo comes up with in the future, shit starts coming out of the Sacred Realm, the King orders to seal the sacred realm, which they do, but then a wizard appears and fucks shit up.

Again, IW only happens, we don't know how, we don't know who, all we know is it's an alternate Adult Timeline where Link lost.

That's it, Link loses and then some how Ganon ends in the Sacred Realm

>>149739860
The first think Link is told when he pulls the Master Sword, is how Ganondorf got into the Sacred Realm and killed the sages. It was OOT retelling the IW. Did you not play the games?

>>149739702
While Legends change over time, there are some events that are highly unlikely to change. Such as whether or not a King dies or lives. While how he lives or dies may change, whether he does is almost guaranteed not to, especially given the rather couple/few centuries in between there. History would still be written down for the ruling family of the entire country.

Even then you have a problem with the timeline when you realize that Nintendo has the Child Timeline as the Main Timeline and Natural Progression, when it shouldn't even exist in the first place and only does due to the events of Zelda. The Hero of Time's natural progression was being sealed and aging, that's natural, that doesn't split from the Child Timeline, the Child Timeline splits from it. Downfall or Adult should be the natural progression, which likely Adult being the Main Timeline.

>>149740379
HH confirmed that it is. Read the text instead of just trying to bend the chart to your fan fiction.

>>149740084
No, the first thing the Hero of Time is told when awakening is that Ganondorf followed in after him into the Sacred Realm. While sure that can be assumed to be an invasion, it's completely different from the events of ALttP in how it transpired, and still contradicts him having the entire Triforce and how he managed to get it.

Sure you can say he took Courage and Wisdom from Zelda in the OoT failure state, but that isn't how he got it in the IW, he got the entire thing from the Sacred Realm, all in one piece, it never broke.

ALttP makes no sense being where it's at in the timeline due to the Triforce, just as it makes no sense for it to be connected to OoT, and it never has beyond the Sages and the Sacred Realm exist.

Hell ALBW Link having the Triforce of Courage makes no sense as the Triforce wasn't passed down in the Downfall Timeline through the Hero's like it's not in the Adult Timeline. Yet he still has it, despite ALttP Link never causing the thing to split at all, or Ganon himself.

They don't understand time travel or their own material half the time, so they need to stop fucking with it. They're causing way too many problems.

Hell you can fix every single one of these problems with ease.

ALttP's timeline and it's following games comes from SS's paradox. That way you can introduce a different IW, no Triforce split, etc. The only issue is the split Triforce showing up in ALBW, and that can be easily dealt with by just calling it the Mark of the Triforce, just like TP Link has, and that it's nothing more a sign of being a Hero, not the Triforce itself, and just say the glowing effect when they're within vicinity of each other in ALBW was a mistake.

Simple.

>>149741119
Also derp, I forgot to say that Nintendo treats Childhood as main because they do this from Link's perspective.

>>149740707
Ganon was imprisoned by the sages. Link's work was to awaken those sages. When Link lost to Ganon, Ganon completed the triforce. As they told you in LttP, Ganon had to be kept in the Sacred Realm because he would be too strong if allowed to exist in the outside world. This means the sages had no choice but to seal Ganon immediately as Link perished.

>>149741119
Sure that line was unneeded. However that is not the same thing in HH. Historia has the straight timeline go through and into the Child Timeline, making it the Main Timeline, which Historia also states. That means it's the natural progression of things, which is a straight lie.

If anything, the natural progression of things without any single intervention of time-travel, would actually be the Downfall Timeline, as Link never would have gotten involved, Ganon would have attacked the Sacred Realm gaining the entire Triforce, leading to the IW, and then ALttP.

The natural progression is that Link ages. Child Timeline only and only exists due to Zelda. Downfall and Adult would continue to exist regardless, that makes one of those two the Main Timeline and should be the straight line from SS, the natural progression. Which means that with Link invention the Adult Timeline is the main one, without Link intervention then the Downfall Timeline is the natural one, and Downfall could easily be fixed by saying "Link never got involved" as opposed to "Link failed at the end of OoT".

Now I remember you. I don't know if I like this idea t-b-h knowledge anon.

It is more appealing than what we have, but it doesn't connect with FSA which is definitely after TP because the Deku Scrubs have recently awoken and the Twili are mentioned.

>>149741614
>than what we have.

Er, I mean what HH claims. -_-

>>149741250
Which is stupid, that isn't how that works. As much as I love Zelda, I really do, I love every single game barring the CD-i ones, they need to stop using time travel, they have no idea how to properly utilize it at fucking all. This is all a mess solely because there are timelines, and because of WW and TP, and I fucking love WW it's in my Top 3 games of all time, but because WW and TP are direct sequels to OoT as well, it massively fucks up ALttP and with a series that has already been stated to cause timeline splits with OoT, you're just getting into stupid territory. They could have spent all of 5-10 minutes more on a backstory for WW and TP that didn't involve those events and had them fit anywhere perfectly fine without screwing up a damn thing.

>>149741614
>It is more appealing than what we have, but it doesn't connect with FSA which is definitely after TP because the Deku Scrubs have recently awoken and the Twili are mentioned.

FSA would be fine fitting in after TP in the Child Timeline still. Only Downfall would stem from SS.

>>149741529
I see what you mean, and it actually makes a lot of sense. I'm honestly not sure on the "seal Ganon as Link perished" part but we are basically just disagreeing to some extent in how long it took the sages to seal Ganon. Thanks for posting that.

It's a concept, there no such thing as MAIN anything when it comes to timelines. In any case Adult timeline has more games than Child.

While yes, from your perspective, 2016-B is now your main timeline, but it's not THE main timeline, 2023-A is.

There is no such thing as a "main" timeline.

>>149742164
>>149742287
You guys do realize they call it a timeline, because it's a straight line right? When you start getting into separated branches, it causes Timeline Bs, Cs, Ds, Gs, Qs, Vs, whatever. Timeline A would be a main timeline, it's the one that naturally exists, and in Zelda's case that's either Downfall or Adult, their only differences being the ending, which you can not accurately judge which ending should have happened had there been no timeline splits.

If there were no timeline splits, Child Timeline never would have existed, that's not the main anything. However Downfall or Adult would, depending on whether Link should have naturally won or lost, which cancels out the other one as in this scenario timelines don't exist.

That makes one of them the main timelines. It's seriously a stupidly easy concept to understand that it's child levels of logic. Certain events happen naturally without invention or splits. Splits only occur due to event triggers caused by the natural progression existing in the first place.

I know that's probably what you meant. Sorry anon but you've grown too powerful in this thread. I'm going to have to put you in your place.

ALttP has to come post-FSA because the world is flooded in FSA and the cause behind ALttP's backdrop is that Hyrule is amidst a drought. Furthermore, FSA leads into ALttP Four Swords, the very first game in that series, and the only game that shows how it ends.

Granted, this does contradict AST because the Dark World is destroyed at the end of the game, but alas, the Four Four Swords games overrule one Zelda spin-off.

>implying BotW won't take place in the timeline where Ganondorf actually touched the triforce

>>149742809
While that is a possibility, if ALttP came post-FSA then that just makes FSA the IW, and it would mean SS->MC->FSA->ALttP. It wouldn't change much honestly.

ALttP being after OoT is what causes problems due to their differences, it causes certain other games to only be placed within a specific spot when they could logically be placed anywhere.

Look at LoZ/AoL for instance, they could go in any timeline honestly. But they chose to toss it in Downfall, solely because of the name of that timeline corresponds to LoZ/AoL's Hyrule being in a Downfall. It's silly and asinine reasoning, when it actually makes more sense to be after ST honestly due to the water and the eastern ocean.

Honestly, Nintendo didn't think too much on the timeline and just threw it out to shut people up. When all it's done is cause more arguing.

Or he's one of Ganon's attempts to escape the Sacred Realm or Twilight Realm which is why he's all weird and shadowy.

>>149745703
Those two imprisonments have already been resolved by killing him.

>>149745847
I mean like, maybe there is a time where he attempts to escape but it doesn't work out. Like say, he tries to escape the Twilight Realm, he doesn't have a physical body at this point, so he just appears as some type of weird Calamity Shadow Beast, before being defeated, yet still trapped in the Twilight Realm, where he seeks out Zant eventually.

I mean it could work, it'd take some working around, but possible, doubtful, but possible.

the true power is actually getting his body back, when he became super powerful, ganon got separated from ganondorf and now both individuals are seeking to get themselves to be 1 again

>>149746974
Doesn't make sense. How is Ganon a different entity?

This is most likely case for botw story

> Link is defeated by Ganon, master sword either lost it's power because of this or for some other reason, which is why it's battled damaged in the botw e3 trailer

> Ganon loses his abilty to return to his human form due to his power growing immensely because Link wasn't there to put him in check. Link could had push ganon too far as seen in oot and he exerted so much power to defeat Link that people considered it a calamity.

> In botw zelda calls him the beast which goes along with how he described in the defeated timeline, alttp even decribed him as once being human, but because of the power of the triforce he became a beast

> since Link was beaten and nearly or was dead, zelda and the shiekah moved him and the master sword to a different location for ganon and his minions wouldn't destroy the only hope for hyrule.

> the master sword was stated to have been moved to the lost woods to keep evil from causing it any harm, how it got there is another matter, probably zelda moved it herself after link was secured

> due to Link's condition they placed him in a chamber to recover, he most likely was at death's door and the process for his recovery reflected that forcing him into a 100 sleep

> botw explaines how the calamity and link going into his slumber happen at the same time

> it's been known that people who suffered great traumatic experiences such as dying and coming back out even going comatose will suffer from amnesia, just as Link is right now

The thing is Nintendo Zelda timeline follows a very simple way of thinking, before the introduction of the 3rd split people were mostly right on the timeline order of the games, even going as far as splitting them which made sense.

The same train of thought follows botw, we have all the information from previous games including a book, nintendo doesn't go crazy with the timeline, the biggest wrench was the fallen timeline.

>>149746974
The whole ganon is split theory always sounds like something a kid age 13 and below would say. It's something out of fanfic, which is why it shouldn't be consider anything but headcanon.

How JRPGish will BotW plot be?

Something I've never seen discussed its the differences from what they showed us at e3 and the videos we have of botw before e3, there had been changes to the game interface that's never mentioned in the boards.

>>149755365
Well, that's the kind of changes that happen during development. Webm related was still a beta.
I suspect the final game might be different again from the E3 demo.

>>149755365
Just development changes. Probably some things that needed to be a little more streamlined I imagine.

>>149755519
>>149756091
This is true, but still worthy of discussion. For example, before twilight princess was delayed the twilight realm was originally grey scale, but after it's delay they implemented that beautiful twilight filter we have today.

So in light of that what could they have removed, in the old video they shown there was a green bar under link's health which usually indicated his magic bar. Is it still in the game? Did they opt out of it for the shiekah slate timer? Was it his stamina bar?

Things like that could help see what the gameplay could've been like if they have released it sooner.

>>149757342
It probably was a magic bar, and probably removed because having to get jars and stuff might take away from just mindlessly using your abilities as we've seen in the recent demo.

Could still be in the game though and the items we've seen just don't use Magic, despite one of them being the Fire Rod (granted there are multiples of these within the game we've seen). The old Demo did take place in a completely different section of Hyrule on the Far East. As much as Magic has been a staple in Zelda, it is awfully restrictive and can sometimes be a huge pain in the ass with no way around it. Such as getting to the end of Stone Tower and not having the Magic to use Light Arrows against the Cyclops before Twinmold, which is certainly possible and requires either having potions or milk on hand, or backtracking to find some magic.

I mean going to find some simple jars isn't that big of a deal, but I imagine with the crafting system they'd prefer if you just crafted green potion and opted out the jars completely, which would make sense and make magic items a real chore at times.

Whoever denies BotW Link is a Link we already met in another game is nuts.

>>149761929
Well it could be taken that he's just a new Hero. Like how they mention at times "You're the chosen hero come again." I mean that could be taken to be a former Link, but could also be taken to be a new Link. Same case here.

>>149761929

Reminder that Link is very very cute.

>>149750247

I think it's more like this:

>Link is defeated by a Ganon who draws on so much power he becomes Calamity Ganon

>Zelda uses the Ocarina and creates a split which becomes the downfall timeline whilst she continues into the child or adult, a later split

>The Sages seal Ganon unsatisfactorily and Link is placed in the resurrection chamber

>Impa summons the Sheikah tribe as a whole and they use their magic and technology to battle Ganon

>Ganon's power corrupts some of the guardians and a war rages destroying Castle Town and the Temple of Time

>Ganon's seal is improved but his corrupted Guardians run amok on the land without his guidance

>Now his seal is weakening and Link is ready to face him again with some guidance

>>149765096

>Zelda uses the Ocarina and creates a split which becomes the downfall timeline whilst she continues into the child or adult, a later split

If that was the case she wouldn't be talking to Link through the shiekah slate

BotW can only logically take place within 4 spots, knowing what we know.

Between OoT/ALttP sometime during or before Ganon is sealed.

Between MM and TP.

After AoL, FSA, and ST with the timelines converging back into one.

A separate 4th timeline that stems from whatever.

The way his Shade looks he clearly did stuff but him not being remembered for it can only come down to him actively fighting against receiving recognition for his deeds

Not him, but he does come back to Hyrule. I mean unless Zelda went to Termina. I imagine he did come back to Hyrule at some point, his armor is pretty similar to the Magic Armor in a lot of ways.

I think it's more he's remembering the past fondly, at least that's what I got from that anon's drawing.

I thought the shade only regretted not being able to teach his sword skills to someone

>>149768312

Isn't he all weepy in Twilight Princess about not having his deeds recognised due to timetravel mallarkey

>>149768424
Nah, he's just upset he never had anyone worthy enough to pass his sword skills to. Historia goes into a bit as well, but it never straight up says he has any regret for not being remembered, at least to my immediate memory, just that he had nobody worthy enough or good enough to use those skills.

Someone can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though.

Is ALttP's Link the first to have a chainmail?

>>149752901
You see, that would be a problem.

It's supposed to be the next home console, not the next fucking DS

>>149769417
Well he doesn't actually have any chainmail in any of the art. I don't know if you'd consider the red/blue mail chainmail though, since it changes the cloth colors.

I mean if you do, then yeah, he's the first. If not, then TP Link is the first.

>>149769470
>It's supposed to be the next home console
No, it's not. Nintendo never said that, EVER. Supposed? Suppesed by who? The NX being a home console has always been a deluded fantasy of most fans. No wait, "fans:. People that pretend to like Nintendo but it's too stupid to buy a Wii U. Hence they hoped the NX to be a home console with Backwards Compatibility, so they wouldn't be forced to buy a Wii U.
Well, too fucking bad. The NX will be a handheld. And no, it won't be a DS successor, as it will have no backwards compatibility whatsoever and only one screen.

>>149769642
Man are you fucking stupid. One of the most important things, that Nintendo has said over and over, is that they are trying to bring together both game libraries to their next console, portable and home games, in order to create a more appealing game library for all gamers.
They've also repeatedly say that this is their next home console.

Yeah I didn't buy a Wii U, and no I won't buy the NX if it's some gimmicky shit again, deal with it.

>>149769931
>They've also repeatedly say that this is their next home console.
No, they NEVER said it.
And before you go the smartass route and post the Reggie quote, he never mentions the NX in that quote and fucking never says these words: "NX is a home console". Never.

And the handheld NX can be plugged on the TV and that's exactly what they meant with bringing the libraries together.

>>149769642
Being a fan of Nintendo doesn't mean I have to like everything they do, like how I can be a fan of Queen and not like every song they made.

>>149770242
Well, too bad. That's ok as long as those people doesn't beg for ports of Wii U games. If you want to play them so much, buy a Wii U. Or build an expensive rig to emulate those games.
No BC makes me very happy.

>>149770348

I'm alright with no BC if it means they actively work to have a good game library and don't use it as an excuse for lots of virtual console releases and remasters

What's the best Twilight Princess texture pack? I want something that's reasonably faithful to the original art style.

BotW Link. This seems to be set up to be the Hero of Pathos. The disembodied Zelda voice has given him an amnesia subplot. This will be a Link that had a life and a community, which he has now lost. His life will come back to us in flashbacks, probably a piece at a time. His reason for hibernating will come back a piece at a time. A guess for his slumber would be an injury, but 100 years seems excessive if that is the case. It might be possible that the 100 year span was unintentional. Could be an old Link being brought out of retirement, except that could remove much of the drama from the whole amnesia plot. Whatever he was doing before he went to sleep, Zelda knows he was the chosen hero.

Calamity Ganon. Whatever he is doing, he has probably been doing it for the 100 years that Link has been sleeping. That's a very long time to run cloudy laps around the castle. He appears in no shape to deliver villainous monologues, so it seems likely that there is a secondary villain working as his disciple. If that secondary villain has been in charge for 100 years, they have probably redecorated and generally enjoyed their leadership status so far. On the other hand, if there is a secondary villain, then why are the guardians not more dominant? 100 years seems to be plenty of time to do whatever they wanted to do to the world, so why is the land still lush? Another option is that there is no secondary villain and while Link was asleep, there was a partial win against Ganon, so all his evil monologues will be delivered via Link's flashbacks.

I somewhat personally hope the Gerudo are involved in the game, both a friendly tribe living in the world and a corrupted group working for Ganon. The Bokoblins roaming the lands seems to prevent any large number of Gerudo from working for Ganon however.

If the game takes place after OoT, you can kiss your Gerudo goodbye.

>>149774013
You can't really have Ganon if it isn't after OOT.

>>149774013

Not if it's in the downfall timeline as Ganondorf would've have reined so long that they have become too powerful/heavily fortified to genocide.

>>149774013
The TP Gerudo genocide is still an unconfirmed theory. TP said the thieves were killed. Even in the other lines, the thieves had been killed by Ganondorf himself, but the tribe lived on.

>>149774151
Too bad that it is the absolute least likely placement for the game.

If it were in the downfall line, it could only fit at the tail end. Nintendo doesn't seem likely to put anything console on that line anymore. The handhelds contribute to chaos, but the consols mainly reference other console releases.
