      1. It was probably the Temple itself that made Link fight his own evil to prove himself, like the King did in AoL.
      2. Imagine having to fight both Dark Link & Shadow Link at once. 1 Dark Link, but mass produced Shadow Links that're weaker.

      What would be interesting is if Link loses a lot of his strength at the beginning of the game, but just before that Dark Link forms...meaning that he hasn't lost his. So he's basically impossible to beat until you get stronger, kinda like the SA-X from Metroid Fusion

    You lose Zelda and the Master sword supposedly in the beginning of the game, along with everything else you worked so hard for. Hyrule is put back into tragedy after just starting to regain what it once was. All the good you've done has been wiped clean in a matter of minutes.

  • @sunflow57
    @sunflow57 2 роки тому +95

    Wanna know what I think? I think they should develop Dark Link into an actual character with his own motivation. He has so much potential but he's regulated to a dumb mini boss fight. He's Links dark side, his inner emotions of anger, hate etc. He can be a fantastic antagonist if you write him properly.
    Personally I'd have him mess with Link, mentally. Try to convince Link that people are just using him and he's nothing but a "pawn" to everyone around him. Make him question his beliefs and say the things Link himself wouldn't say (Link is a blank slate in the games that's why I say this).
    We know Dark Link shows up in various timelines so he probably is very knowledgeable. Have him tell Link the truth like. "No matter how many times you save your precious little home, it will NEVER be free." Or something along those lines. Feed doubts to Link by telling him about the whole reincarnation thing. Like, it's always constant war and suffering the Goddesses you blindly worship just sit by and watch you all suffer like it's some sick game.
    I could honestly go on but y'all get the point. Dark Link could be soooooo much more.

      I've had this idea for a fan-story in my head for a long time where Dark Link is not only pissed at Link, but more specifically...the Goddesses, as he was originally a creation of the Triforce of Courage to test Link, right? So he's basically pissed that he never gets to be his own person, merely a mirror for the chosen hero.
      Then he seemingly gets used by Ganondorf later on and suffers another humiliating defeat.

    shadow characters are honestly fascinating, but, in my experience, underutilized. think about it, this is your literal shadow come to life. not the shadow as we usually know it, but often the phycological shadow. all the darkness, all the impulses, everything that we've held in for our entire lives, every thing about ourselves that we reject, all rushing out into a dangerous antagonist, that forces us to face it. an opponent that arguably, knows us better than we know ourselves.
    im actually toying with the idea of a more complex shadow in my own writings, one that becomes a character in its own right, partially, just because i want to see this idea pushed to its limits. x3 not sure if i can or not, but hey, got to try right? lol

    Mido also seemed to blame Link for the death of the Deku Tree as Link is leaving after defeating Ghoma. Being the quasi-“leader” of the Kokiri after the Deku Tree’s death (also the only one left guarding the Sacred Grove in the future that we see initially), he may have also influenced those Link grew up with into believing he was responsible for his death. I always thought that was part of why Link fled from his home in the way he did, since it seemed weird to me that he sort of abruptly runs from Saria after receiving the fairy ocarina. I dunno, could just be because he couldn’t handle his feelings in that moment either, losing his “father” and needing to leave home for good. Great video, happy Halloween! 🎃

    I mean when you pile up all that stress which resulted in darkness its no surprise of what happens to the hero of time based on peoples theories. And it's no surprise that Link went in search for Navi who's probably the only one who could comfort him, she shares their memories after returning to the past too . She was Link's last friend despite Link being able to meet Zelda again and I'm pretty sure it wasn't the same emotional connection but it had some relief none the less because he made a familiar friend. Unlike botw, there's no real feel of romance between Link and Zelda in Ocarina, it's more like Link is just trying to save Hyrule aka being noble and doing is duty as everyone asked of him, he really was alone he just never trained for it. He only picked up a sword. Again, when you think about it he was no trained warrior, that doesn't mean he didn't want to save his friend zelda or lacked the strength or courage to do it, its just that Link forever wondered about his purpose before leaving the village and finally found it helping those in need, it was lonely at the start of Ocarina and at the end of Majora's Mask for him idk if Nintendo noticed that when making these games but thats quite the dark plot. Nintendo can make another title after Majora if they wanted

      Dude, did you really write that sentence without even noticing that you needed the word SHADOW to write that nonsense?!
      Here lies hyrules bloody history of greed and hatred
      Given that all the dead in the temple is the result of the hyrulian civil war that was not only still going when link was born. It was also most likely the reason for the genocide of the sheikah.
      So the reason for all the dead is the dark past and the mistakes that were made.
      The death even a so seemingly kind and pure nation like Hyrule can cause when things like greed and hatred (or in other words the darkness within people with power) are not kept in check.
      Link also is a person with power and if he gives into greed hatred and darkness without facing all the demons of his past this video pointed out so greatly, how much death, pain and suffering do you think he could cause?!
      So yes, dark link would have been perfect in the shadow temple and its theme even if you really want to boil it down to a small minded and short sighted word like death.

      @@btothekfromg5973 Yes I did and it was pretty unnecessary to write a whole essay towards a single short statement
      I said that because that's literally what it is. Sheik even describes it as "a house of the dead". It's located in the *Graveyard* in Kakariko Village. The inside of the temple is filled with torture and execution constructs and devices and there are even splatters of blood on the wall in some rooms, not to mention chambers filled with bones of the deceased and Stalfos litter the place. Moreso than any other temple in the game
      Yes, Link is a person with power, but he's also Hylian's chosen hero. He earned that power through his _courage_ . Even in his youth he's showed nothing but unflinching courage, even going so far as to brandish his arms against Ganondorf in their first encounter, something even he considered admirable. Link has shown time and time again he's incorruptible in spite of wielding that power and that's why he's the hero people depend on.
      Dark Link as he appears in Ocarina of Time does not represent some sort of hidden aspect of his psyche. He's just yet another monster infesting the Water Temple and uses Link's reflection to assume a physical form. That's it. And while yes he does appear in Kakariko Village in the manga, he's just treated as a physical challenge Link has to overcome and it's entirely about his skill. That's it. He doesn't make him question his motives or his mission, he's just a shadow monster who kicks him around for a bit until Impa tells him to get his head together.

      You are not okay with the thought or theory that dark link represents more than just another enemy.
      In this case I apologise for my harsch wording.
      But as you see, a longer statement is much more clear.
      Everything what you wrote about the temple is true and I don't deny a Single point of that. However, it doesn't contridict what I wrote about it. Both of our statements are correct.
      That's why I still don't get why my opinion that dark link (even without the symbolism surrounding this mini boss) fits better into the shadow temple feels so wrong to you.
      I never read the manga so I didn't even know dark link was put there.
      Quite honest, I after hearing how the manga to Majoras Mask butchered the origin of Majora and the fierce deity I would never suggest something because a manga said so... So this is not why I think he should have been put there.
      To your point of Link being the chosen one and therefor flawless (I know, that was not how you wrote it)
      Being couragous and skilled doesn't mean someone has to be good.
      If you want to see Link as that shining beacon that's cool really.
      For many other people (me included) is that a little too simple and even Twilight Princess proved our Link here can be sad and remorsefull, that's why his soul couldn't rest and even as a hero chosen by the godesses he was just mortal who did things he regret and that's why the hero's shade was still around centuries later.
      I don't want to convince you that you might have a wrong picture of link.
      I just want to show you that this and other games in the series also make room for a more vulberable and flawed Link to see for others.
      Neither of us is right or wrong. That's the beauty of this franchise. It can be interpreted from so many different angles.
      Sorry again for being rude before. Short statements just tend to feel as not much thought was put into them.
      Especially when the statement seemed to prove a mistake without proving a mistake.

      The Hero's Shade's regret has nothing to do with what he supposedly did but what he _couldn't_ do; pass on his sword arts to someone else. With Ganondorf out of the way up until TP, there just wasn't anything left for Link to do in an era of peace

    I really hope Nintendo listens to fans about this 1 thing, because it would be a great fanservice to have a real dark link fight again in a main zelda game, and for it to be programmed well and challenging. Just like the OOT fight.. make it match everything your character has, make it force you to improve at the game and beat yourself. Great video.

  • @seancole2727
    @seancole2727 Рік тому

    I have a theory on this aswell. If you look back all the way to the first game, you know that there are always 3 "Tri" forces. When all three are together there is a fourth. The upside down hollow in the center.
    Non of the Goddesses have a notable responsibility for the dead or afterlife. Maybe a Dark Force, or a contingency plan for a "Perfect Wish" gone wrong.
    I think that Dark Link is a form of Link that gave up his life to save Hyrule and Ganon made him Dark Link, or taken over by Dark Force. Maybe even sent into the Twilight Realm after losing to Ganon in Twilight Princess.

    • @seancole2727
      @seancole2727 Рік тому

      Also notice that Dark Link is always seen in Ocarina of Time tunic, even in Twilight. And they show 3 of them together in a cut scene. Also he would have some time travel function due to the master sword.

    • @seancole2727
      @seancole2727 Рік тому +1

      Not to ramble more... but another TP reference is that Shade could be Dark Link being punished for what he did across time. Dark Link is a far more trained swordsman than our Hero.
