The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Discussion

Lol, if you watched the Game Theory video, you'd know that it wasn't saying that the timeline didn't have the games in the right order. It was getting technical and saying that the downfall timeline isn't a timeline at all; it's an alternate universe. The order of the games still stands.

all the timelines are alternate universes I would assume

the 4 places where BotW makes the most sense is after TP/before LOZ/after AOL.  Like, it's clear this is "Hyrule" from OOT, Skyward Sword, ALttP, et c..  The main reason I'm thinking it's on the Dead timeline is because of the easter egg in the early gameplay video where Aonuma mirrored the LOZ art

[Nebbles]

Oof. Best of luck with that.

[mikey]

After watching the trailer again, it seems likely this is just a Skyward Sword sequel QQ

[BlackDragonSlayer]

Is it possible that this game takes place a long, long time in the future (there seems to be some forms of advanced technology, along with Koroks from Wind Waker), presumably after Hyrule has somehow become un-flooded (and then ruined again)?

[Nebbles]

That's what I'm thinking...

[mikey]

where did they have koroks

[BlackDragonSlayer]

Here.

Maybe this game is set between bad ending OOT and Wind waker, but this one splits it even more? Like this game could have a good ending (defeating Ganon) which would split it into a whole new branch we haven't seen yet, or the bad ending would continue on into wind waker. Maybe the bad ending would start if link never woke up from the shrine, which is why the Wind Waker legend references OOT instead

Regardless I LOVE THIS SO MUCH I've been yelling about it all day I'm sf excited :-)))

[mikey]

...wow.  I guess they're just using the "add a century and call it good" philosophy.  All the same, having this be in the flooded timeline is really out of place no matter where you put it imo

On a different note, I'm trying to transcribe the E3 trailer music for BotW for solo piano, perform/record it, and post it on YouTube for tomorrow. All within the span of about two hours 0_o wish me luck

Oh yes! I absolutely love the music I'm hearing so far!

This is my favorite video so far, it makes me appreciate the game a lot more for what it's trying to accomplish.

I was thinking "add a couple thousand years," actually!

[mikey]

maybe koroks actually evolved from kikwis and kokiri are totally separate?

[DS]

Can one of you do me huge favor and crop out the LoZ BotW logo? I can't find it by itself anywhere and I thought it would catch more people's attention if I had the new logo in my video thumbnail for the E3 trailer piano cover thing rather than just the generic LoZ logo. If anyone could do that within the next 18 hours, I would be SOOO grateful

[mikey]

consider it done

EDIT: tomorrow morning :x

WTF how am I supposed to learn this in 2 hours https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1RmRwKRXmElWTlhSkltcWg3eVE/view?usp=sharing The last measure in the actual thing is literally an impossible piano arpeggio thing, and that sounds like the simplest part of the piece. Well, time for a lot of takes and some video editing...

EDIT:

Yeaaaaaaah thnx

Oh man, I just found out you can use Wolf Link in BotW if you have the amiibo... that is honestly one of the best amiibo functions I've ever seen next to the retro Arwing in SFZ
