it was his last, desperate attempt to win. he wanted to kill Link and was even prepared to sacrifice himself to do it. subconsciously, as vain a creature as he is, i'm sure he didn't want to lose himself forever. he wanted to be King, not a God. he wanted to be present for the ruling of his new kingdom. but in that moment, he made his choice. and by shoving the stone down as far as he could go, he was making sure that even though his mind was unwilling, his body wouldn't fail him
Friendly reminder that purah’s camp is basically right under where this is so imagine watching this from the ground and purahs probably viewing this through her telescope
But remember in BOTW they say usually only kids can see the dragons. So average Hylians are probably just like "Ffs, what now" lol they've been through a lot.
@@ketchup016actually its not just kids! Its just specific ppl, kids just often fall in the category of being more perceptive or spiritually inclined in many cultures. If i remember correctly in the botw dlc u actually have to shoot an arrow at dinrall’s horns and theres an adult rito whos there watching to make sure the dragon does not come too close to the village and sent as a scout. Implying that at least it might just have to do with spirituality? Makes sense seeing as the rito share the skies with the dragons so🤷
@@birb.9684It's a glamour that children are naturally more adept at seeing through. Dinraal was only seen because it wanted to be seen there. After you finish that trial, the scout is still there looking for Dinraal, but can't see it anymore.
When Light Dragon comes to aid Link in the final battle, I’d asked myself a question during the 3rd phase: “Did she come back and maybe Draconification hasn’t removed everything that is Zelda?” I would strongly believed it is her love for her knight that drove her dragon instinct/consciousness in saving Link from falling and aiding him against the Demon Dragoon. And we all seen that when her powers is activated when the one she loves is threaten in Breath of the Wild’s final memory.
I like to think of it is like turning into an animal, she may have lost the things that make her human, but she'll still have instinct, think about how a dog is loyal to it's owner.
Point Crow does have a point. When I first saw the cutscene making the draconified demon king, it looked like the calamity that surrounded Hyrule Castle. Also, while not shown, if you arrive here without the master sword, Zelda gives it to you right here, and the demon dragon is immune to all attacks except for the power of the sword.
My theory is that Zelda and Ganondorf retain their nature if not their consciousness. So as much as Ganondorf wants to kill Link, Zelda wants to help him save Hyrule. They might not remember why, but they know that much.
The Light Dragon is the only dragon without a hazard. Also she stops moving her head if Link is on her back. She absolutely knows he's there and is chill with him, even though she probably doesn't know why.
@@thephoenixdevil4817wait what do you get from zelda? I only watched the gamegrumps playthrough and the only time they interacted with her was to get the master sword
See this is why it's a good thing I'm not a streamer, because I'm a giant weenie and started sobbing at Zelda's appearance and didn't stop until the end. I may or may not be crying while watching this. She came back! She hadn't known who she even WAS for thousands of years, but there was enough of her left to know that she had to help and protect Link at all costs! She came BACK! (We don't even talk about how much I sobbed through the Final Catch!)
Vinesauce talking about what the people of Hyrule think looking at the dragons made me realize- They wouldnt see this fight actually. Lore we learned in Botw was that Dragons are invisible to everyone, except Children and Pure of Heart (like Link). So from the perspective of everyone in Hyrule, Links just flying around in the air and then suddenly a giant explosion happens. The children would certainly need therapy when they get older though lmao.
@@JacksonVoet Ooooh that's an interesting point! I like that thought. The people of Hyrule seeing the Demon Dragon come from underneath the Castle and thinking the Calamity is back and then it fucking going nuclear after Link kicks its ass lol
Well we actually got an answer as to how Zelda returned with the Master Works book. Rauru and Sonia combined their powers to perform an extremely powerful Recall on Zelda, turning her back to her normal form
...why is this Roamer dude so hellbent on "The Skyward Sword is the thing that beats him"? The Skyward Sword WILL BREAK against Ganon. The Master Sword WILL NOT. It's the one time in the game where you can swing the Master Sword willy nilly without a care!
Idk maybe he just likes the prototype better, worst case scenario he doesn’t understand they’re both literally the same item but different capabilities.
Cinematically, it is the best Ganon fight, and has the most phases. But as of recently, since I played Skyward Sword, Demise is my favorite bc of the story.
One of these days the game/show/book's hero is going to realize talking and transformation sequences aren't free actions, and will run up and stab the BBEG while he's trying to do it.
Man the only thing I wish they did slightly different was the other 3 dragons should have shown up at some point during the fight just to fight against this abomination that would have felt so wrong to them.
In my experience watching them, the GameGrumps mostly just chill and talk about other stuff or make comedic remarks about things rather than take the plot seriously. That's not a bad thing, it's just a different way to enjoy a game
@@frankjohnson123 Imagine expecting a spoiler-free thumbnail from a video literally called "Gamers React to DEMON DRAGON". You're almost on the level of the people who bitched about "spoilers" when one of Vinny's TotK videos showed Zelda with the Master Sword in the thumbnail.
@@ElFreakinCid hey genius, you see the thumbnail before you decide to watch or not watch the fucking video. What if a movie poster showed the main character dead at the end?

Ganon is really passionate about what he believes he shoved half his forearm down his throat with that stone
Ganondorf's the throat goat
it was his last, desperate attempt to win. he wanted to kill Link and was even prepared to sacrifice himself to do it. subconsciously, as vain a creature as he is, i'm sure he didn't want to lose himself forever. he wanted to be King, not a God. he wanted to be present for the ruling of his new kingdom. but in that moment, he made his choice. and by shoving the stone down as far as he could go, he was making sure that even though his mind was unwilling, his body wouldn't fail him

Considering the origin of this dragon, most people would probably see him, due to actually being hostile. Ganondorf hides from no one.

I like that you always put PointCrow first because he actually explains what's going on
It was insane to me how HUGE dragon Ganon was when I did this fight myself
The battle of two dancing dragons is so damn cool! 🐉
With one singular tiny human who's just there for morale support for the dance
A perfect set piece of a finale
Ganondorf did it for power. And it destroyed him. Zelda did it for love. And she came back.
Amen, brother
Well we actually got an answer as to how Zelda returned with the Master Works book. Rauru and Sonia combined their powers to perform an extremely powerful Recall on Zelda, turning her back to her normal form
The battle takes place above Lookout Landing, but below the central Star Island. You also can't reach the Star Island during the battle.

Well I mean... if you've played skyward sword you'll know a funny little secret.
@@emm._. Yes yes, but in BotW/TotK, the Skyward Sword is treated as a different sword.
Idk maybe he just likes the prototype better, worst case scenario he doesn’t understand they’re both literally the same item but different capabilities.
This Fight was so much Fun!
vinny referencing the "tennis moment" from OoT ganondorf battle is so choice
roamer we get it, you like the skyward sword
Cinematically, it is the best Ganon fight, and has the most phases.
But as of recently, since I played Skyward Sword, Demise is my favorite bc of the story.
Now all you got left(?) is the final dive.
If I recorded my reaction to this I would’ve been made fun of for how crazy I went lmao. The tears I shed, the sobbing, the yelling lol
Anyone else expected Ganondorf to turn into an oversized hog or towering bipedal like in oot or was it just me
He basically just RIPPED out the Tear he had IN his forehead and swallowed it whole then turned into a dragon. 😁
Ah yes, The Legend of Zelda: Dance of Dragons 😂
Now all the reactions to Ganondragon getting nuked
One of these days the game/show/book's hero is going to realize talking and transformation sequences aren't free actions, and will run up and stab the BBEG while he's trying to do it.
Man the only thing I wish they did slightly different was the other 3 dragons should have shown up at some point during the fight just to fight against this abomination that would have felt so wrong to them.
But Vinny, surely we could fix him 🤔
Good thing I never watched the GameGrumps, they sound like they're not taking the final battle very seriously.
i mean nobody watches the game grumps for a serious reaction to a play through to do so will only end in disappointment
In my experience watching them, the GameGrumps mostly just chill and talk about other stuff or make comedic remarks about things rather than take the plot seriously. That's not a bad thing, it's just a different way to enjoy a game
The GameGrumps' reaction to the gloom hands was so funny it had me in tears. They're great if you want a laugh.
