Lancun's Reaction to Nintendo's "Official" Legend of Zelda Timeline

*Of Course there are spoilers for games in this timeline. If you care about spoilers, watch at your own risk!*
There's been a massive uproar over the new timeline, and while I was gone, I received a number of messages on the subject from folks who had seen my group of videos in the past. So what do I think of the newly released Zelda Timeline that was included in a Japanese art book? Well...

i love this timeline! its makes sense, and it leaves room for plenty more games... isnt that wat we all want anyway?

[RedDragonForce2]

Basically, After OoT successful ending, Link is no longer there to have a descendent/reincarnation that can battle Ganondorf for Hyrule, and a wish was made to the gods to prevent Ganondorf from getting the triforce (again), and thus the flood happened.

In LttP, Link most likely still lived, or at least long enough for a reincarnation to happen so there was no need for the wish/flood to happen. That's probably the most significant difference between the two 'Adult Timelines' as you put it.

Hero is defeated: the possibility of a NEW zelda game to link OoT? I HOPE

[geauxlegendofzelda]

@Kenziex123 oh wow.... hahahaha maybe that was u on the other video :) wat are the odds of that? lol

[Kenziex123]

@geauxlegendofzelda In english at least.

[Kenziex123]

@geauxlegendofzelda Yeah, I think that was me who told you in the other video actually. =P. But who knows, there could always be translation errors. It's not Nintendo released yet.

[geauxlegendofzelda]

@Kenziex123 actually, yea. i just had someone else comment the same thing to me on a different timeline video... so i cant argue there. but maybe there was still a link in that timeline, who didnt pull out the master sword. so it would still be a timeline split since one link does, but the other gets defeated since he doesnt have the master sword to kill ganon. just throwin it out there

[Kenziex123]

@geauxlegendofzelda Yeah, that was actually the explanation that made the most sense. However it is actually proved wrong by the Hyrule Historia. Google search: Glitterberri Hyrule Historia. Then check out page 92. It states that the timeline is based on the event of Link being defeated/failing on top of Ganon's Tower.

[geauxlegendofzelda]

@Kenziex123 its not that he dies. it is a mistranslation. really its just that he was absent, when ganondorf gained power, all of hyrule was in trouble, but because link pulled the master sword, he changed the future and helped sace the world. however, that world without a hero still exists, and and that is the hero is absent timeline

[Kenziex123]

@geauxlegendofzelda the 3rd timeline primarily. How can a destined Hero die? This confuses me.

[geauxlegendofzelda]

@Kenziex123 what doesnt make sense about it?

[Kenziex123]

@BeyBlade1999 The Picori Blade turned out to be the Four Sword in the end, during the events of Minish Cap the Master Sword was simply untouched. The Skyward Sword cannot be the Master Sword and the Picori Blade at the same time. Plus the Minish Cap was proven to take place many many years after Skyward Sword. All theories individual timelines at this point are terminated, you can't correct Nintendo.
