      How can they rectify that statement with the fact that the Hero of Time was not around in the Adult Timeline to create any descendants?

    Ganondorf in the adult timeline (wind waker timeline) had the hundreds of years between Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker to reflect on his past actions and probably realized that his actions caused the opposite of what he intended to cause. He wanted to give the Gerudo a chance to prosper but instead he gave them ruin and he probably realized that so he became determined to make up for his past actions but both Demise’s Curse and his inability to let go of the past made him take actions that turned those he wanted help against him.

    • @alexkuhn5188
      @alexkuhn5188 6 років тому +9

      Also something I thought of regarding Majora, is it possible that initially the spirit of Majora was neutral as it had seen what his death had created but the use of the mask for hexing rituals corrupted Majora? This is assuming you consider the Majora’s Mask Manga as the canon origin of the mask.

      Realize that the gerudo tribe are the most prosperous, during the events of Breath of the wild, the only time we get the gerudo while having beast ganon, meaning that as ganon he had no political power over the gerudo. With their own political leader in power they were able to focus on their own will and became prosperous.

      the timeline was released alongside Skyward sword (the first Zelda game chrinologically) and the creators have made múltiple references to it (for example they say that breath of the wild place in the timeline is a secret that gamers will have to discover)

  • @omicron3012

    Ever noticed how the Triforce on Demise's sword is upside down? What if Demise was in fact Lorule's fallen god? What if he once was Lorule's counterpart of Goddess Hylia, and took this demon form and became evil after Lorule's ruler destroyed their Triforce? Lorule's ancient hero may have then proceeded to banish Demise to another realm in order to save Lorule from destruction... thus, opening a rift between the two parallel worlds, allowing for Demise and his army of demons to enter Hyrule.
    What if, by seeking to obtain Hyrule's Triforce... Demise was (secretly and unconsciously) wishing to return to his former self, to transform back into the god he once was?

  • @akudaemon1478
    @akudaemon1478 6 років тому +31

    I think this Calamity Ganon creature is the 'real' Ganon behind the prior games, and that we are seeing 'it' for the first time. This Ganon may be more an a recurring entity or a force of nature, and I suspect there is much more to this Calamity Ganon and it's history then what we have with the games. I think with the Skyward Sword elements like Hylia , this creature might be tied more to it's demonic origins then to the Gerudo one in future games.

      @@Obozo_Gaming Actually no. Thats a mistranslation from the Japanese version.
      The English version says: "He has given up on reincarnation and assumed his pure, enraged form." and yet the Japanese original says: "This form was born from his obsessive refusal to give up on revival…"
      I'm not sure why the meanings are opposed here but I interpreted it as Ganon not giving up and assuming another form, one that is less useful than the one he was creating inside the Hyrule Castle sanctuary.
      The form that was seen in Hyrule castle was clearly incomplete and might have eventually looked more humanoid again. A Gerudo even comments that an earlier reincarnation of Ganon took the form of a Gerudo (Ganondorf) so I imagine Calamity Ganon's goal was to create a humanoid, droid like body made with Sheikah technology that resembled Ganondorf yet was able to use the Guardian weapons and stuff.
      The fact he cut himself loose from the cocoon he was making the body in rather that emerging from it normally says to me that Link battled him before it was ready and after we destroyed it he didn't give up and assumed a spirit like form made entirely of malice which was more vulnerable to light magic than that of the half Sheikah half malice one he was making.

    There is some fanon in this video. The legend of the Interlopers is connected to the creation myth, meaning it likely happened before the Great Cataclysm. For all we know, Demise could have even been one of the Interlopers.
    As for the war before Ocarina of Time, all canonical information we have about it is the Deku Tree Sprout's words, "...before the King unified this country...". That indicates that it was a unification war, not a civil war. If anything that makes Zelda's father the aggressor. Of course he likely did it to end an era of continuing warfare.

    I have an argument here. In the Adult timeline, the Hero of Time vanished after the defeat of Ganon, sent back into the past by Zelda's magic. This is why when Ganon broke free, no incarnation of the Hero appeared to face him. The Spirit of the Hero no longer existed in that timeline. The Hero of the Wind was not related to the other heroes at all. He was just a boy trying to do what he could.
    Also, In the Child Timeline, Link Returned to the past, shutting the Gate of Time before Ganondorf could pass it. As a result, Ganondorf never touched the Triforce. Because of this, I suspect that the symbol on his hand in Twilight Princess was more a showing of Demise's influence rather than the actual Triforce of Power.

      @@snbeast9545 I am pretty sure you have misinterpreted that scene. Ganondorf was not given the Triforce of Power by the Sages. That would be idiotic on a Catastrophic level. The statement the sages make is that, in a cruel twist of fate, as they were about to execute him, Ganondorf became one of those chosen by the Goddesses, a state that is commonly taken to be that he had somehow drawn the Triforce of Power to himself. The issue with that is that we know that Ganondorf never broke the Triforce in that Timeline, because the door was shut. He could not reach it (if he could, he would not have needed Link to get the stones and open the door for him in the first place), so he could not break it, and there was no way the sages would ever be dumb enough to hand an inmate such a powerful weapon. Foolish enough to Underestimate his power with Demise's curse backing him up, yes, but handing him even a part of the Triforce? Not a chance.

      @@snbeast9545 I maintain that being "Chosen by the Gods" does not need to be synonymous with "Having part of the Triforce". Yes, it bears the same symbology, but in each of the games where the Triforce was involved, it was called the Triforce, and one of the goals of the villain was to use it to make a wish. There is no indication of that in Twilight Princess, which is why I say it can easily be something else related to the Goddesses, since the Triforce is never shown to be active in that timeline.
      Honestly, it could just as easily be the influence of the Spirit of the Hero, and the Power of Demise's Curse, or something else, unique to Twilight Princess.

Refute that. Also, Demise never had the Triforce of Power (that we know of), so it's not symbolic of Demise.

      It certainly says no such thing. You clearly saw a theory somewhere and rolled with it. Regardless, it's a bad source for "canon," as many moments on the official timeline have been brought into question since the book came out. You can kinda be left to interpret it any way you want, in almost any order as long as you keep skyward sword at the beginning and wind waker closer to the end. But the whole Termina being created by Majora is utterly incorrect. The only theory that even mentions Termina being a fabrication is from the "link is dead" theories, all proven wrong by Nintendo.

    Very intricate storyline. I've played every Zelda game except the NES and Game Boy versions. I swear I thought each game was somehow connected but not to this degree. Amazing.
    I was always left reflecting on what Link (or the hero) had to go through to restore peace and all the characters involved. I marvel at the similarities to real life,like how we all have problems and how we can do good for others that they themselves aren't aware of.
    The fact that Link or Zelda sometimes are played by characters that have little connection to Link and Zelda bothers me a bit.

    You know what I want? I want some villain other than Ganon to make a comeback. Because seriously, so far there's mostly been either Ganon or a one-shot villain, and there are a lot of problems with constantly using both. Face it, Ganon is becoming really over-saturated by now, and it would be nice to get a breath of fresh air over him. On the other hand, bringing in brand new villains is fine, but they don't really get to reach their full potential if they're only ever used in one game.
    Someone like Vaati, Ghirahim, Zant, Majora, Bellum or even Yuga would be awesome to see make a return in a future Zelda game. And don't say that it's impossible for them to return. If Ganon can come back after being killed a couple dozen times then so can the others.

    I kinda want them to really mix the formula up for the next big Zelda. Maybe, just maybe - entertain the thought - actually make a reincarnation of Demise the protagonist and player character. The story is then about how everyone stands against you because you are fated to be evil and Zelda and Link are your enemies even though you don't really plan on getting your hands on the triforce or taking over the kingdom. The whole game could be a beautiful and tragic tale of an incarnation of evil born into a good intentioned character who everyone persecutes then for the past atrocities his previous incarnations comitted. Hell, the game could even end with the player character dying as usual and just weeping and accepting his fate even though he never had any bad intentions. This would also give us a whole new perspective on the world of the Zelda franchise since we could ally with usually bad intentioned creatures and races as the new incarnation of Demise. We could find out that maybe Bokoblins, Moblins and the Lizalfos aren't as primitive as we thought they were as the player befriends them and wins them over for his cause and they swear allegience to him etc.

    How do you know Vaati wasn't a previous incarnation of Demise's Hatred before Ganondorf?

      @nonoctoro4933 6 років тому +27

      Demise's Hatred is spread over the whole Demon Tribe(in the Original JP speech of Demise), and Vaati turned into a Demon after being corrupted by the darkness in men's hearts, so Vaati is also an incarnation of Demise's Hatred.
      Even a simple Bokoblin bears some of Demise Hatred, since Demise is the father of all Demons.

      Aidan Or Vaati is a particularly dangerous incarnation. Having Stolen 3/4 of Hylia's power which was never returned. No wonder Zelda keeps getting sealed and has to rely on the triforce of wisdom.

      Andres Marrero Hylia's power ? No, it's not, Vaati wanted the Light Force, a minish-made artefact.

    • @andresmarrero8666
      @andresmarrero8666 6 років тому +4

      Nonoctoro that is incorrect actually. With how the light force manifests, who it manifests in, and how it operates, points to it being Hylia's power. Not a simple artifact.

      In the end of the Minish Cap, all of Vaati's doing were undone because of Zelda's wish.

      Demise is just as strong as the goddesses. He was around with them. The Triforce controls the things they made nothing else. So nah probably not.

    Calamity Ganon is essentially Beast Ganon controlled through the Malice Virus.
    So Essentially in a way you’re not fighting Ganon himself in BOTW, but the very Malice corrupting Ganon, the Devine creations, and most of the worlds essence into the insanity that we see in the game.
    After-all Malice is displayed everywhere in the game acting as a fungus, killing anyone who dare go near it, and even going as far as creating floating skull enemies to defend itself from the ground, and the globs of Malice that forms Mouths which are mainly found around Hyrule Castle a prison of Malice Ganon, so it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to see it be the silent master puppeteer of BOTW pulling the strings of Hyrules destruction without a single word.

      Malice comes from ganon. Its not controlling him. He controls it.

      cruxbucket
      If that’s true, then why out of all the Gannon forms does this Gannon not speak once! Also why is it that the Malice is known to have mind altering abilities.
      Perhaps Malice is a greater threat then Gannon himself, corrupting the minds of whoever it comes into contact with like a parasite.
