Like how Link canonically almost married a fish in every timeline
PLEASE THAT IS SO TRUE
Technically, not the child timeline, unless I’m missing something
What about Adult timeline? Does Medli count? I guess she evolved from Zoras.
well there should be infinite timelines so anything is possible in any order even if it doesn't make sense

THAT ASS THO
If anyone's confused about breath of the wild merging the timelines, think of it as a fixed point in time. No matter what happens in the 3 timelines, after an extremely long time they all end up converging on that exact version of hyrule. EG. Sea salt in the middle of the map? At some point all 3 versions of hyrule must have flooded, we just only saw one. Same goes for any other discrepancy.
Yeah, the placement makes perfect sense. Breath of the Wild is one of the least confusing parts of the timeline. For me, the most confusing part is, the entirety of the Downfall Timeline's existence. Its existence makes no sense, and the placement of the games in that particular timeline also make no sense. That entire timeline is just a giant, inexplicable fever dream. The placement of Four Sword Adventures is also very unfitting and nonsensical, but at least with that, it is only one game that is out of place, not the entirety of the Child Timeline. That placement could also be fixed more easily.
calculus in a nutshell.... lol
It doesn’t have to make sense, because the whole idea of the timeline was invented after the fact.
So, there are three BotW at the same time?
@@WiggyWamWam Also true, but we may as well try to make it fit with the official chronology.
I like when franchises that clearly didn't have a deep story in mind put in genuine effort to *link* everything together after decades of games
pun intended
The problem is that such attempts often result in messes with a bunch of major plot holes and inconsistencies. Exhibit A: the Legend of Zelda lol.
@@angelmendez-rivera351 Yeah. Sooooooo much information in the old games requires outright retconning to fit with the timeline
@@Isuream6331 As far as I can tell, there is a minimum of 3 distinct, incompatible chronologies in the franchise, and a maximum of 10, though if I had to give an argument for a specific number, it would be 4.
At the very minimum, we can see that none of the 3D games are compatible with the 2D games, although the 2D games are all "compatible enough" with one another to form a coherent chronology. Among the 3D games, there is also a clear discrepancy between the pre-Skyward Sword 3D games, and the 3D games including Skyward Sword and published afterwards. To put it more simply: Ocarina of Time was basically a reboot of the franchise, and Skyward Sword was basically a re-reboot of the franchise.
Fun fact. Wind Waker link was the only link to not literally be a reincarnated link. Instead, in order to save his sister, he went to the gods and forced them to choose him and dug up the prices of the triforce of courage from the depths of the sea.
Fucking badass
WW Link is best Link confirmed
How much did the triforce of courage cost?
@@Saiga79 "Time...it cost me time. I lost nothing else at the end of all this."
-Windwaker Link
Why not a reincarnated link? I mean he is still link isn't?
@@anthonyparker8991 he comes from an island where every boy aspires to be like the hero. So he grew up knowing of the hero but he was not a literal reincarnated
This dude Ganon is literally the epitome of "Ah shit here we go again"
XD so true
Yep, like the Covid-19 !
What about Sigma from the Mega Man X series? I'm pretty he's far worse of a deja vu than Ganon ever will be.
How about "how many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?"
@@ClayMachine21xx whats sigma
Feels weird that in the timeline where you seal ganon away, he immedeatly breaks out, where in the timeline where you fail, he gets sealed away anyway. feels like they could switch those timelines and it would be a lot smoother
Wind Waker intro? Have you seen it?
The reason it feels weird is that the entire chronology is an inconsistent mess that was haphazardly spliced together, without much regard for the content that is actually displayed in the games, and completely ignoring the fact that these games were not designed with the priority of having them fit in a chronology, since this has never been a primary concern for Nintendo. This franchise is ultimately no different from the Super Mario Bros. franchise in this regard. We are not looking at a Triple A game franchise from the Western continents.
This was so much more coherent and understandable than any of the hour long explanation videos I've seen.
“There’s still one game we haven’t discussed yet, Links crossbow trainin- I mean botw” that literally put a smile on my face
link's crossbow training is actually one of the two zelda games I played other than phantom hour glass
And then he adds where does BotW2 take place, LOL, okay I'm done! 🤣🤣 where does Age of Calamity go, never mind, don't get me started, LOL! 🤣🤣

LMAO
The legend of zelda the confusing timeline
I always liked the idea that it was various retelling of a legend. Allows for infinite versions with out having to tie to any time line or continuity. Nothing needs to git together or can sort of fit if they want it too. A story told, retold, and embellished throughbthe ages
I honestly prefer to view it that way, even though finding continuity references is cool
@@DoctorXander it's a story being told again and again the references reinforce that. From a developer stand point you don't have worry about continuity lol
@@Aplex21 Then how do you explain sequels? Or the entire adult timeline, which has all of it’s games clearly connected?
@@Isuream6331for the sequels, because developer want to make sequels. About the game clearly connected. Because the existing ip (master sword, hylian shield, concept of triforce, etc) that developer had after previous games.

@@actiiniawhat
Me: (only have played botw) Yes, yes I understand.

Underrated
And one time I played for an hour on my friends wii for skyward sword. That's all I know of this franchise
Well good for you.. I played most of them and I'm still confused xD
You’re missing out! It’s my favorite series, you’ve gotta at least try ocarina, majora, twilight, wind waker, or skyward sword
I like how the community just came up with a comprehensive timeline, and the head designer who just made it off of his joy from spelunking as a kid just said, "Sure. That story sounds good. It's canon now."
Actually, this timeline here is official canon material from the Nintendo-released Hyrule Historia plus some later add-ons.
@@red5t653 nah original comment is right. the devs even said it. the community tried to connect them all after OoT, and the devs said they never thought of it that way, it was just random to them. even said the timeline wasn't canon for a while. and later when the community pretty much said "we don't care what u think, it's canon in our eyes" they changed their minds and went with it. causing them to make games to go along with the timeline the community created.
u have to remember that this timeline wasn't created in order. they really were completely random in the beginning. skyward sword is the first game in the timeline but was the 50 year anniversary game of LoZ. proof is in the pudding
@@thunderclancat123 Zelda franchise is 35 years old. Not 50
@@thunderclancat123 skyward sword was the 25th anniversary game
@@thunderclancat123 It would be real nice if the developers made more unique Zelda games instead of rehashing the plot of some of the games, only changing some of the characters and setting to make it seem different but otherwise, the formula feels largely the same with some games being the exception like Majora's Mask.
Honestly, why should they bother making a timeline if each game feels largely the same in how it's structured?
Even Skyward Sword's story feels unnecessary because you could easily swap out the setting of it taking place in the sky to it taking place on oceanic islands like Wind Waker and it would make more sense.
Why are there people living on floating rocks in the sky where they could easily fall off in the first place?
It makes no sense because of how dumb it sounds.
In the Zelda lore it mentions a sacred realm in the sky where the goddesses left the triforce after they went after creating hyrule and that's allegedly what the setting is for Skyward Sword, though if it is then it feels less mystifying because common hylians inhabit the sky where the triforce is kept, so the implied Sacred Realm doesn't feel too "sacred".
Another thing that feels redundant is the need to tell the story of the first Link and how he got his tunic uniform, there's not much grandiose about how he got it, it feels just the same like in any other Zelda game.
I have to also mention Demise. Ganondorf was already supposed to be a reincarnation of evil like with pig Ganon, so why bother making another version of him where he looks no different than his Gerudo appearance?
Like I said before, it feels largely redundant and this was the last game that they were using the Ocarina of Time Zelda formula because they were running dry of ideas and had to have a moment of realization that they can't making the same game structurally every time with different gameplay gimmicks, so they looked to inspiration from other games and made Breath of Wild.
And Breath of the Wild did shake things up in a positive way. Though like with previous Zelda games the story feels somewhat similar in that it felt like an after thought.
If Nintendo wants to create a Zelda timeline to explain events that took place, they need to start making Zelda games with more in-depth and unique stories instead the same old. "reincarnated-hero-needs-to-defeat-reincarnation-of-evil-to-save-the-world-in-an-endless-battle-that-happens-forever."
People will get eventually bored of this type of same old story structure that they've been doing for 30+ years now.
I absolutely love you, simple explanations and jokes of these CRAZY convoluted stories. I have legit watched your videos on repeat. I'm hoping you tackle the Metal Gear Solid series! Please post more videos. I hope all is well in your life!
This is the most comprehensive explanation of the timeline I've ever com across.
Thank You

Hyrule Warriors is not canon, luckily those bizarre Japanese necklines of the first hyrule warriors will never be seen again
Developers: _Want to make a clear timeline at first_
Ocarina of Time: _How about no??_
Actually it’s backwards, Ocarina of Time gave a precise lore to the then games and it was only when Aonuma took control and made Skyward Sword that caused the timeline as it is( as he didn’t like what Ocarina did and loves the idea of Link and Zelda being an important part to the lore)
"How about fu c k y o u?"
Ocarina of time my favourite
Nah Miyamoto didn't care about continuity at all between games, which is why most of the inconsistencies in the timeline come from the fallen timeline.
I prefer blaming wind waker.
Ocarina of time was obviously meant to be a prequel to Link to the past, but then wind waker came out and retconed the hell out of that
I found this video randomly and instantly enjoyed it. All the videos are great. Keep it up :)

@@meep7895 why do u think he is so good with the bow lol
Meep aw thanks dude, that’s been bugging me
it goes after link's crossbow trainning i think, because it uses tp link as its protagonist
Somewhere at the same time as Twilight Princess if this isn't a joke question. Which it probably is. It's like a different reality since he beats all the big monsters again.
Love how you used my favourite iteration of the theme song. Windwaker is so underrated
this is literally the only comprehensible explanation of the timelines, thank you
In all seriousness, Link’s crossbow training would take place immediately before or after twilight princess
Given his garb and general armament, it would have to be after imho.
Definietly after. It was supposed to be a sequel to TP, but then Miyamoto went full boomer and kinda killed it for the sake to turn it into a glorified ad to the wii-zapper or what the hell it was called.

OK so I wanted to play the series chronologically.
Nevermind.
Wich timeline you choosed first?
@@madoufo Even though you didn't ask me, I would pick child timeline because I played twilight princess hd
I feel like BotW connects to the child timeline and items in the dlc comes from alternate timelines when the dragons travel in the hole in the sky (you know what I mean) and they brought back things like the lobster shirt from wind waker
@@guyz1204 I thought everyone mutually agreed that BotW connects all 3 of the timelines
So play BotW first, but immediately after getting the final memory watch the Age of Calamity opening. Then, finish BotW. After that, rewatch the AoC opening and play it through, including the postgame and secret ending.

@@jakethefake527 Hitler
Meeb How have you seen it before? It’s brand new.
@@TheRedInkling I saw it on a re-run
I want to point out something:
In Skyward Sword, you travel forward and backward in time.
In the future timeline, you kill Demise with the Triforce.
In the past, you seal him within the Master Sword. Then take him to the Future Timeline.
Thus, Demise's curse no longer exists in the Past TL, only the Future TL. Demise can't exist in the Past TL's future because he was no longer sealed and got sent to another TL. Therefore, none of the events after Skyward Sword can happen within the Past TL, only the Future TL.
Just an observation I made while replying Skyward Sword.
Skyward sword link is the second link. There’s a canon comic of the original link that happened before skyward
@@CalebCheek That's not canon as far as I am aware, just a fun little side comic for Hyrule Historia.
@@MysteriousTomJenkinsdemise in japanese says that the curse of the demon tribe never ends
I dunno sounds legit to me
@@isauldron4337 That is in the game. The comic is still not canonical. The only content that is not in the games that is arguably canon is the content from Nintendo-approved Dark Horse books, and even that is just secondary canon at best. The games still reign in canonicity, and the books have many mistakes.
@@CalebCheek It is fairly clear from the contents of the game itself that Hylia's chosen hero is the same person as the player avatar (Link), not a different, previous hero. There are no comics that are canonical.
WOO, Link's Crossbow Training, let's GO

Sounds like Breath of the wild is just a reboot of the lore. It’s so far in the future that it doesn’t really matter and so it’s Nintendo’s get out of jail free card.
And a good one
Well, the developers said as much... without saying as much...
@@presion5628 Then Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity happened
now we got another time split lol
@@calebchan9411 nope. They haven’t said it’s canon and it directly conflicts with BotWs canon so until a confirmation it shouldn’t be considered as such.
@@peanutbutter6720 No it doesn't. AoC and BotW can both still happen, it's just in different timeline's thanks to Terrako traveling back in time to prevent the calamity. We've seen this before in OoT when Zelda sends Link back to the past so he can live his childhood and he prevents Ganondorf from doing anything, while the adult timeline still continues even without Link there.
This isn't like the OG Hyrule Warriors, this can very much be canon. We just have to wait to see what Nintendo does with BotW2 and future games. To say it, "shouldn’t be considered as such" is kind of pushing it. It is very much debatable.
I love the art style on this Channel!
Huge thanks. Short and explainful
*"Speaking of depression, next up is twilight princess-"*
Majoras mask is an emotionally heavy game that really plays on the threads of time, a theme more painful as you get older and realize just what exactly it was conveying.
I remember playing it on the 3ds when I was younger but I never actually got past the part where u get a horse because I didn't know what to do.
Very true like I get so much nostalgia just thinking about Oot 3d and majoras mask 3d. Idk just thinking back to that time just makes me sad bc I can’t go back. But man I loved those times
Ya. Now I know how to get a kid to leave his house.
It's okay though. Because he's not really a kid. 😆😆😆
it is very scary to think about the fact that time is limited. and at first, when you are very young, you never think about it. but over time, you realize every second matters. and eventually, your time will be up. death is a mystery. maybe there is heaven where you meet your family members who have passed. maybe you will be reborn as someone or something. nothing you do will matter. because once you die, you will forget everything. your family, friends, and memories, all gone. or maybe you are stuck in a dark void, where there is nothing left. no matter what, I am not sure what I would prefer.
@@Lolyeet that’s fucking deep man :/
Surprisingly accurate AND concise!

Good video. A solid explanation IMO
They probably never made these games with a timeline in mind... just a re-imagining of the story each time. Then people started asking for a timeline and they threw this one together.
Yes. People were asking for a timeline after TP. So we had SS, it explains that every Zelda game is a reboot of itself. Nothing less or more.
idk i feel like the first zelda game just doesnt make sense if it wasnt a thought out plan for it. just imagine if there wasnt a game after it. 😭😭 like theres no substance
Ocarina of Time was made with the split timeline in mind and was always going to be a prequel to A Link to the Past. Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are clearly sequels to Ocarina of Time in different timelines. The Fallen Hero timeline was created because there was no way for A Link to the Past or any sequel to take place in any other timeline.
Yeah, there’s no timeline. Agreed.
I feel like Miyamotto never cared for a timeline but Aonuma does. All the games that came after Ocarina of Time clearly have a place in a bigger continuity.

“Link saved the world from a sad homeless kid”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What is the creepy pasta and why is there a face on the moon. Sorry, I started learning about Zelda last year
XLDinoSaver30 /\ so Majoras Mask is a real game that is available to play, and you do, in fact, save the world from a sad homeless kid, but there is a very popular creepy pasta called Ben Drowned that is about Majoras Mask but is, in fact, fake. (I do not know much about this creepypasta but I’d assume Ben drowned) and a face is on the moon because it was summoned by Skull Kid, (who should be referred to as a skull kid as there are many skull kids, but he’s the only one who ever possessed Majoras Mask so he’s just Skull Kid) and so the magic from the mask / Majora itself makes the moon have a face. Plus I think Nintendo tried to give every 90’s kid ever nightmares for the rest of their lives.
Tenelum ok thank you 😂😂😂
XLDinoSaver30 /\ you are welcome sir
@@hummingbirdwithanar8281 so majoras mask is a mask that has evil powers, skull kid used the mask and became evil, the moon with the face was summoned by skull kid to destroy hyrule.

ThirtyfourEC you should watch the unwraveled video on polygons channel
Kingdom Hearts isn't as confusing as Metal Gear Solid.
@@Magicpaper1337 id say its about the same kind of confuzing. Im a fan of both
Fuck Nomura
BDG's unraveled on the zelda timeline is also worth your time
Thank you for this.
I’ve only ever played botw and plan to play totk so this was actually super helpful thanks mr youtube guy
I like the theory that the triforce of courage gives you the power of rebirth(saving and loading the game) for those that are courageous enough to continue links adventure. Link therefore becomes the "link" between Hyrule and our Earth.
Ohhhh that's a really clever way of looking at it! I like that!
So like DETERMINATION
Reminds me of dark souls where people go hollow when not playing the game XD
Yesssss
this theory were similar to PSO2 Episode 4 lol
and yeah i do agree with how that MC named "Link" and it always "Link" in every timeline,universe,world
"Fallen Hero timeline"? you mean BASKETBALL timeline right?
Great video as always! My suggestion would be Earthbound/The MOTHER series! It's a little complicated but you managed with FE3H lore so I have faith
I was actually thinking of either doing that or FF7 next so yeah i'll def get to it!
Oh it a polygon reverses is it
@@aaronsipcps.1073 yeah it's a BDG Unraveled reference lol
Where is Zelda Monopoly?
@@erickinamoto4122 but the most important thing is whare the TiMe BReaK
Wait until this guy realizes about totk
Y'know I feel like Hyrule warriors brought the entire time line together thus leading to breath of the wild
hyrule warriors isn't part of the timeline
@@ness6546 lol ik I meant hypothetically
@@ness6546 Matt Pat from The Game Theorists theorized that it could. Ik it's not a cannon game, but if it was, it could work out.
would actually pretty nice if they would have done that. would explain how the timelines come together and it would make Lana canon
Is skyward cannon?
“And is only chronologically 10 minutes long, so there’s not much to say”
*The Ocean King would like to have a chat*
Him: What about... No?
learned everything. thank you
You explained it so well
“Misunderstood artist” no way that could go wrong
Absolutely no way
Ha ha, it's a Hitler joke
@@cortezmartinez8659 No shit sherlock
@@Angel_alanis just explaining the joke as a joke
@@cortezmartinez8659 thanks as I didnt understand the joke
awesome resume!!! thanx a lot dude
him: "but we forgot to adress 1 more game...[...]... breath of the wild. but where does it take place? after the ruined time line? the child time line? the adult timeline?"
me: yes
him: yes
both: ?????
Breath of the Wild is the Garbage Plate of the Zelda Timeline
@@HarleyAMV its more like all the timelines had the same events take place in different orders and eventually none of that really matters because it all came to the same iteration after enough time passed. that or the sheika fucked with it. or both.
@@Paradox1012 My theory is that the sequel to breath of the wild is going to involve time travel which somehow led to the timelines merging at some point in the past
GunRunner game theory actually did a theory on this. It comes after hyrule warriors Bc if you look at the maps they’re very similar.
Yet the only way this would be able to happen is if there was a game where someone used the Triforce to attempt, let’s say, time travel, but as a result they accidentally united the three branches into one timeline again, where a new Link travels across Hyrule completing tasks with characters, locations, and items from all three branches. Too bad that game doesn’t exist yet...
*o wait*
This was informative and funny lol
best video about the zelda timeline
"the *humans* descended from the sky"
somewhere out there, the cries of hundreds of angry zelda fans, enraged by the fact he said humans instead of hylians, can be heard.
they weren’t hylians, they were humans because Hyrule wasn’t founded yet
@@soso1634 hyrule was named after the hylians, they've been known as hylians since skyward sword, which was the very beginning
framerate 300 no they were named after hylia
Also they live in Skyloft, not Hyrule, Hyrule was founded after skyward sword
@@soso1634 who do you think created skyloft, and the skyloftians, and the hylians.
I'll give you a hint, her name rhymes with Pielia
"Speaking of depression, next is Twilight Princess."
In fact, depression fits in the game mood. Just that nighttime soundtrack... It's like... Emptiness...
@@VascoCC95 depression is what the game gave me everytime i didnt know what, when and where I was supossed to be
@@Njx063 For me the hell was taking the dominion rod to that old woman... I accidentally skipped a key dialogue so I ended up looking for what to do on the WHOLE MAP until I figured it out...
the first zelda game I got really far in just because I got high.
I can’t believe you forgot BS The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets, the most important game in the entire timeline.
Nice work. 🥇
7:18 To be fair, why would you make anything practical when you could build giant robots?
As our Lord and Master, the great Coop of Megas XLR once declared:
“I dig giant robots.
You dig giant robots.
Chicks dig giant robots.”
Giant robots with a morse system that can only be heard by an artifact that most probably is unique since we see one which is link's one/zelda's one before (I mean the sheikah slate)
"I don't want to cure cancer. I want to turn people into dinosaurs."
Builds robots with laser weapons. Does not build actual laser weapons for people.
