''Those like you... Those who share the blood of the Goddess and the spirit of the hero... They are eternally bound by this curse.'' One of the most important lines in the entire series to tie the games together.
basically they get reincarnated every 100years so in 100 years its minish cap then 100years four swords and notice that there are no gerudo or zoras until ocarina of time which is next in the timeline when it splits into 3 timelines one link fails and ganondorf rules all two link wins and go's back to his childhood and three he stays as adult link
It isn't that he stays as adult Link in the adult timeline. The adult timeline is just the world after Zelda sent Link back in time (when the hero disappeared.) By sending him back, she created the child timeline, a timeline where Ganondorf was defeated by the actual kingdom of Hyrule and the Hero of Time was never needed. Her timeline however no longer had a hero because of this action, and thus when Ganondorf returned he nearly defeated the kingdom of Hyrule. So basically the timelines are like this. Downfall Timeline: Link dies against Ganondorf Child Timeline: Link as a child warns the kingdom of Hyrule of Ganondorf's future. Ganondorf is sent to the Twilight Realm. Adult Timeline: Link defeats Ganondorf by sealing him into the Sacred Realm using the Master Sword. Link then disappears into the child timeline, never to be seen again. This is why the Hero's Shade has regret. Upon becoming a child, all of his actions in the adult timeline are undone and he no longer remembered as a Hero. Thus why he is in the child timeline and never appears in the Adult Timeline to help Toon Link.
It also technically debunks the whole "Hero Shade is OoT Link" theory cause Demise is cursing the Hero's soul to be reborn. This means the Hero's Shade cannot be OoT Link cause Link has only one soul. So there can not be a TP Link and the spirit of OoT Link at the same time as the spirit would reside in TP Link.
LOVED that we got to see everything from Zelda's perspective in the credits. That was a great idea. She had her very own journey that just happened to cross paths with Links sometimes.
CaptainRed1000 reminds me a little too much of the final battle of Wind Waker, Ganondorf does the same thing when Link and Zelda talk strategy. He's just an honorable villain who doesn't attack his enemies until they're ready. Lol.
It's just playing as Groose doing normal shit up until the point he leaves Skyloft. Then it's just Groose chatting it up with old Impa, except for all the events he takes part in
Power, Wisdom, and Courage are the three recurring virtues that the Zelda franchise has used to define the "Hero's Journey." While courage is ascribed to Link (Wisdom to Zelda and Power to Ganondorf), Link arguably must demonstrate all three in order to complete his journey. Here we see at the end the fruits of Link's progress throughout the adventure. The hordes battle is a demonstration of Link's growth in power. Link is very weak at the start of his journey, and must spend time and effort to vanquish common enemies. Here, at the end of his journey, he makes little work of cutting down an entire army with plenty of health to spare, much to the surprise and chagrin of Ghirahim. The Ghirahim battle is a demonstration of Link's wisdom. This is arguably the most complex of the boss fights, with three distinct phases and varied combat throughout that Link must quickly understand. And while Ghirahim finally loses his composure and becomes blinded with rage, Link remains stoic and focused on defeating this pompous, arrogant villain. Finally, the fight with Demise demonstrates Link's courage. Link, despite his power, is physically outmatched by this enormous demon. It seems hopelessly brash to try and challenge this terrifying menace, and indeed no human ever has. However, from the moment of his abandonment of the comfortable, peaceful town of Skyloft to explore the treacherous world of The Surface until now, Link has been motivated by rescuing Zelda and protecting her from harm. Now that she has been so dreadfully harmed by this abomination that has taken possession of her soul, he will stop at nothing to avenge and restore her. He even is given the choice to flee for his life, but chooses instead to go into a fight for which there is no running from, no hiding, and no escape. He must not cower or be intimidated by Demise's threats, but rather he must unleash that indomitable spirit that made him the hero he was fated to be.
@@BKBK-yo1zz imagine if Nintendo repeated the same buffs to the Master Sword in TotK when [spoilers] Dragon Zelda held it for 10 THOUSAND years. That thing would decimate rehydrated Ganondorf in mere seconds.
Ganon: *We are cursed to continue fighting like this at an endless cycle for all eternity! And no one will ever see the end of it...* Link: *So I get to go on legendary adventures and defeat you and save literally everything like this an infinite amount of times? That’s awesome! I couldn’t feel more blessed!*
"May we meet again in another life." Wow, that makes Wind Waker's ending even MORE depressing, since Fi will now be forever entombed at the bottom of the ocean...
Not forever, even if Hyrule and Ganondorf did get fully flooded at the end, the Koroks were working to plant trees that would suck up all the water and thus eventually unflood Hyrule (helping them out is a side quest in WW). Sure, might be a long long time before that happens but eventually the master sword would see the light of day again. Also, supposedly BOTW is at the end of all the timelines and you can see the master sword is still around thousands and thousands of years later.
Skyward sword wasn't my favorite Zelda game, the world seemed kinda empty and loaded with enemies. It didn't have the allure of hyrule or the great sea, or even termina. But it had one of the best story's I've seen in a Zelda game, no doubt in my mind.
For me the world felt too "gamey" like not at all organic. I think that's because they made the overworld like a dungeon and although it was fun it also felt like you had to solve puzzles to walk everywhere. I don't mind dungeons doing that because they are mostly man made so you'd expect trials and puzzles, but it felt a bit hokey in the Overworld (I like there being pockets of it ala Wind Waker or Twilight Princess). It is still one of my favourites though, due to the Story, Skyloft and the fact that despite not feeling epic in the overworld exploration it was still fun.
Bruh it's a 5 y/o comment, and yeah, it wasn't exactly the best, especially when they made you use the wii remote for combat. But it did explored what could be done with motion controls, and the birds was kinda fun ngl.
42:39 I can't believe I never noticed this while playing the game myself but the Master Sword in Skyward Sword has one major difference from all the other Master Sword's. Just above the hilt at the base of the blade, the picture of the Triforce is very different on this version of the sword. The pieces of Courage and Wisdom are separated from the piece of Power by the design around the Triforce. On the other Master Swords that had this same design, the pieces are all touching and the design goes around the Triforce. It doesn't cut the Power piece away from the other two. It's like this version of the sword was trying to warn, or was representing the symbol of the tool that would be used to strike down the holder of the piece of Power.
They should have never given the option to name Link. The worst part is that they never tell you that that is not the savegame but the character's name. When played the Wind Waker, I named Link "Wind". It felt so weird throught the whole gameplay.
Overall, I'd say that this was the best Legend of Zelda game in a long time, because the whole story line had a Special Connection with Link & Zelda, something that a lot of us fans have been asking for for a long time, but I think a lot of the fans wish that they could at least show both of them kissing each other at least once in one of these games. Of course, beyond that part, that's for another time.
+axelrayne69 I'm not sure. Not that this game isn't good (I possibly can't say it isn't as I never played it) but to me Link and Zelda aren't bound to be together in a love-relationship only because they both have the triforce. Just like how Hermoine ended up with Ron instead of Harry.
Nexils I don't compare Harry Potter to Legend of Zelda, because there have been many story lines of this franchise that have mostly not been consistent.
axelrayne69 That was just one comparison. It's not that the two main characters of a game have to end up together. In this case it's fine, Link and Zelda grew up together. But that doesn't mean that Link, some random guy on an island or a sheepherder or a boy in the forest, start a relationship with a princess.
Nexils But just like me, you don't know about anything like this, because the thing is that unlike most stories, the story between Link & Zelda have so many paths it can take, and all because of the one element, Time. FYI, Link has been much more than some boy from the forest, and Zelda has been many things other than a princess. So many different paths & directions that this story can take, like a River of Time.
Well since Nintendo was surprised about how well the romance elements were received they are looking to bring romance between Link and Zelda in some way on the Wii U Zelda game (not Hyrule Warriors)
I just finished this game today and have to say I think its the best Zelda yet. And the ending cutscenes are amazing! and so emotional. I honestly think nintendo have outdone themselves. And skyward sword 2, am hoping for that already..
Definitely not the strongest of the 3D Zeldas, not by a long shot. But dear god, the music is just fucking incredible. Very hard for me not to like it just on account of that fact alone, considering music has been such an important element in the franchise since Ocarina of Time.
"How extraordinary, I've never seen a Man or Demon block my slow attack and then follow it up with an attack that I don't block before!" How utterly disappointing for a final boss fight.
+4tahlulz4 To be fair, he had just reemerged after his minion sword preformed a summoning ritual in hasty circumstances... so maybe, I mean, story wise it makes sense...
Are there any final boss fights from the Legend of Zelda series that you considered very good? In my opinion, there are ways to make each of the final fights very easy, so Demise wasn't very different in that regard. The first time I fought him I didn't use a shield.
16:18 Finally. You were very hasty and not trying to match his sword position until you got very low on hearts. You decided to slow down and finally got the pattern to break through his sword. Patience is necessary.
Eduardo Romero If you're just talking about the ending, you're probably biased, but the overall game may be different. A lot of people, not me, prefer Twilight Princess over Skyward Sword.
@@somany5 Twilight Princess is a game that I also loved thoroughly but I was severely underwhelmed by the ending. The final battle with Ganondorf was decent, but it kind od just felt like nothing after that moment. Skyward Sword has the luxury of being a prequel story, so there's a lot of things to geek out about. And it really feels like an epic conclusion/beginning by the credits.
Be honest, how many of you freaked out when Girahim revealed he was basically Evil Fi? Like what the actual fuck. Demise gets someone with as much personality and flamboyance as Girahim and we get stuck with sword-bot for idiots Fi? Thanks Goddess Hylia
Skyward Sword Sequel? No. Every game is either a sequel or prequel. Ganondorf is the same Ganondorf in every game, he is a reincarnation of Demise, and possesses the Triforce of Power so hes unable to die. In OoT, this is where he first comes to power, this is where the timelines for all the games split off. The Link to the Past timeline is if Link failed to defeat Ganondorf and died, and he succeeded in obtaining the full Triforce, and corrupted the world of light and turned it into the Dark World. He is forever Ganon in this timeline. The Majoras Mask and Twilight Princess Timeline is if Link beat Ganondorf, was sent back in time to be a child, and as a child he warned the Princess about Ganondorf when he came to meet the king in the castle. He was therefore put on trial. Since he held the Triforce of Power, he wasnt able to be killed, so they sent him to the Twilight Realm. The Heroes Spirit (the armored guy) is actually the OoT link passing his abilities down to the Twilight Link. The Wind Walker timeline is if Link succeeded, was sent back to be a child again, but the future Adult Link timeline was left without a hero, and Ganondorf, being immortal, came back to find there was no hero to fight. He destroyed the world and the Gods were forced to flood it to stop him. There cant be a sequel, Ganondorf hasnt done anything yet until OoT. He doesnt steal the Triforce of Power until OoT, he doesnt face Link until OoT, hes never even met the boy or the princess yet and doesn't even know the two possess the other triforces. When defeated in OoT, he vows revenge on Links ancestors. If we go and make a Skyward Sword Sequel, it cannot feature Ganondorf and Link in the same game, without totally destroying the timelines.
Tao Liu from the Storyline, Minish Cap Comes BEFORE OoT... so Ganondorf didnt existed then... and Majora was just the direct Sequel what the Young link did after he beated ganondorf in OoT in then he wasnt in his power again cause Link and Zelda crossed his plans before he became king over hyrule, and in TP he gets punished for all he did
Tao Liu well... i got the Hyrule Historia and there it says, one timeline stays for the old link who banished Ganondorf and what he will do next, one stays for the Young link (cause it makes sense for me that they will be seperated links) and another one is in my opinion really a side Sequel, where link gets defeated and thats going to wind waker, then Phantom hourglass, then this track Train crap one and then to the second Zelda ever and then to the very first zelda ever existed
Thank you for making the final and second to last boss fights cinematic. People just make it look too easy when really, it is not. For motion controls, it is hard.
27:16 Sure, Demise. You could just stand there and watch how Fi is going to rat out any weaknesses you might have, time that could've been spent on impaling Link.
Not my all time favorite zelda game but I have to say the ending was the most tear jerking, well written ending out of all the zelda games. This game is an absolute masterpiece, the opus of eiji aonuma. When they stepped through the gate to the other time, and you found that the old lady the entire time was actually Impa, and she said "See? I told you we'd meet again" I literally got chills and teared up uncontrollably. They made this game with nothing but art and fun in mind, excellent game
Demise: ''Those like you... Those who share the blood of the Goddess and the spirit of the hero... They are eternally bound by this curse.'' Me: "Not my problem, this Hero has done his role. We all know the bloodline of Heroes are champions and will always follow through no matter what."
Did Ghirahim ever get a 'Thank you' from Demise for go though so many fights with Link and all the shit? No? Nothing?... Then I wish ghirahim would in the fight between Demise and link, reminding his master, that the batteries are low.. Thats true evil. Because he gave him no thank you. (Sorry for Bad englisch 😂)🇩🇪
such a sad heartfelt ending.. only flaw I don't understand the purpose of demise sucking ghirahim into the sword he pulled out of him.. sure link kicked his ass multiple times but its not like he was dead and demise would've had a Little extra help that could've made all the difference in the final battled.. that final battle was horrible too..
Ghirahim IS Demise's sword, just like Fi is the Goddess/Master Sword. With the sword pulled out, what was left of Ghirahim was a lifeless corpse. Besides, I think Demise would rather have his weapon than a minion who's been defeated multiple times.
Demise' charge attack was a pain for me to. You stand at the distance where you expecting to get the lightning to hit your sword and BAM, he rushes you and you take damage. I was so focused on the lightning I never reacted quick enough to block.
I know this was over a year ago, but I’m gonna say it anyway, I didn’t mind the gameplay, what bugged me was the fact that this game drained a wii remotes battery in heartbeat, so you would have to replace the batteries every two hours or so, which was beyond tedious. And the numerous recalibrations, but the actual gameplay mechanics weren’t terrible. Save beetle and lift wing controls, those could have been better.
Just completed this game tonight, ahhh I loved it! Although it's my 5th favourite Zelda game. (The ones I've played) My list, my favourite to least favourite: 1) Link To The Past 2) Ocarina Of Time. 3) Twilight Princess 4) Link Between Worlds 5) Skyward Sword 6) The Phantom Hourglass Still need to play Majoras Mask (Hope they do a remake!) But that's my list. (: Now have to start hero mode, although quite a few things annoyed me about this game. Silent Realm was quite a bitch xD And some bosses were annoying and long (Long cut scenes, The Imprisoned for example) Still, as always, I enjoy any Zelda game loads and look forward to playing a new one. :)
ALSO I don't know if anyone noticed, but Ghirahim sort of waits when he is holding up the huge sword to block you from hitting his diamond chest, he waits for you to do hit him until you mess up
Honestly, I'm going to go ahead and be that guy, but this game failed to provide a satisfactory ending. Obviously it couldn't stray from a cliche conclusion, but Demise was such a simple boss to defeat, once you figured out that you could use your sword similarly to the skyward sword after blocking his strikes a million times. It was still an incredible game, but I'll be damned if I can't say that for Demise's threats and formidable character design he was a bit of a two part pussy, my favorite kind? No, no that's all wrong...9.4
Notice that when the Boblikins blow the horn, it's the same notes used for the flute you get in Link To The Past. I nearly shat bricks when I first heard it.
Horrible, eh? I can think of some horrible games. Daikatana, Charlie's Angels, Sonic 06, Postal III, Survivor, Bubsy 3D... there are a few horrible games. And you're calling Skyward Sword "horrible," hmm? Exaggerating much? It's not the best Zelda game. But not being the best Zelda game is like not being the fastest Olympic runner.
When Demis said "Reancarnation" he's talking about Ganon. and Demise also talks about a curse for the whole entire "Link Time Line" about always fighting evil
22:47 "I've waited eons to return" Wait but the demise who waited eons is dead now, they killed him with the triforce, isn't this after they go back in time to just after the war ends? This one hasn't been sealed for very long, he doesn't even have a concept of what's been happening in the millennia since
@thefray123 This game is pre and post navi by a good many years. It's been stated to be the starting point and end of the timeline. all games that come after are set after the start, and before the end. That makes sense if you finish the game lol.
Oh, and also being very flamboyant, narcissistic, awesome, quite a rager, and summoning an entire army of enemies to stop you also make him even more BADASS!
This game is awesome. Some people say otherwise, and there are some good reasons to agree with them, but this is still one of the greatest Legend of Zelda games ever.
@BlademasterJale No, the scar is from the sword that was sealing The Imprisoned. Since Demise IS the Impresoned in pure form. The fact that Wind Waker's Ganon was stabbed in the head has no real relation, but perhaps it is just a symbolic means of "So you're going to send an incarnation of your hatred after me all the time? Well fine, I'll just stab them all in the head and seal them away until the next one traipses along." Like Ocarina (Ganon), or Wind Waker, even Malladus from Spirit Tracks.
False considering other games like ALTTP have him use the Pegasus boot to move faster,so in reality while he can Sprint in this game,He can technically Sprint with the help of the Pegasus boots
It's funny how the final boss battle with Demise happened before the events of this game even started, meaning that Demise tries to escape again after degrading in his seal, only to be crushed to death.
''Those like you... Those who share the blood of the Goddess and the spirit of the hero... They are eternally bound by this curse.'' One of the most important lines in the entire series to tie the games together.
Link the Hero What?
basically they get reincarnated every 100years so in 100 years its minish cap then 100years four swords and notice that there are no gerudo or zoras until ocarina of time which is next in the timeline when it splits into 3 timelines one link fails and ganondorf rules all two link wins and go's back to his childhood and three he stays as adult link
It isn't that he stays as adult Link in the adult timeline. The adult timeline is just the world after Zelda sent Link back in time (when the hero disappeared.) By sending him back, she created the child timeline, a timeline where Ganondorf was defeated by the actual kingdom of Hyrule and the Hero of Time was never needed. Her timeline however no longer had a hero because of this action, and thus when Ganondorf returned he nearly defeated the kingdom of Hyrule.
So basically the timelines are like this.
Downfall Timeline: Link dies against Ganondorf
Child Timeline: Link as a child warns the kingdom of Hyrule of Ganondorf's future. Ganondorf is sent to the Twilight Realm.
Adult Timeline: Link defeats Ganondorf by sealing him into the Sacred Realm using the Master Sword. Link then disappears into the child timeline, never to be seen again.
This is why the Hero's Shade has regret. Upon becoming a child, all of his actions in the adult timeline are undone and he no longer remembered as a Hero. Thus why he is in the child timeline and never appears in the Adult Timeline to help Toon Link.
Solid Snake no three is when he avoids the fight completely.
It also technically debunks the whole "Hero Shade is OoT Link" theory cause Demise is cursing the Hero's soul to be reborn. This means the Hero's Shade cannot be OoT Link cause Link has only one soul. So there can not be a TP Link and the spirit of OoT Link at the same time as the spirit would reside in TP Link.
And then Link admitted to Zelda that he actually loved the Item Check girl
+GorrilaJohnson And thus the great Hylian Wars commenced
+GorrilaJohnson No one said he couldn't have both.

27:15 "Hey Demise, could you please hold on a sec? I gotta talk to Fi in the middle of the fight. Kthnx!"
Would you and Girahiem kindly give us a minute to talk strategy hahahaha

OH SNAP HE'S GOING SUPER SAIYAN!
through the entire emotion ending Groose just kinda derped around in the background
This game is amazing.
when people dont use the charecters real name and change it for their own
They should have never given the option to name Link.
The worst part is that they never tell you that that is not the savegame but the character's name.
When played the Wind Waker, I named Link "Wind".
It felt so weird throught the whole gameplay.
@@la-zrider2749 the game be named after Aryll. The Wind Waker am I right?
i named the horse in twilight princess "my ass" for obvious reasons

I don't remember putting these fucking tears in my eyes!
Overall, I'd say that this was the best Legend of Zelda game in a long time, because the whole story line had a Special Connection with Link & Zelda, something that a lot of us fans have been asking for for a long time, but I think a lot of the fans wish that they could at least show both of them kissing each other at least once in one of these games.
Of course, beyond that part, that's for another time.
+axelrayne69 I'm not sure. Not that this game isn't good (I possibly can't say it isn't as I never played it) but to me Link and Zelda aren't bound to be together in a love-relationship only because they both have the triforce.
Just like how Hermoine ended up with Ron instead of Harry.
Nexils I don't compare Harry Potter to Legend of Zelda, because there have been many story lines of this franchise that have mostly not been consistent.
axelrayne69 That was just one comparison. It's not that the two main characters of a game have to end up together. In this case it's fine, Link and Zelda grew up together. But that doesn't mean that Link, some random guy on an island or a sheepherder or a boy in the forest, start a relationship with a princess.
Nexils But just like me, you don't know about anything like this, because the thing is that unlike most stories, the story between Link & Zelda have so many paths it can take, and all because of the one element, Time.
FYI, Link has been much more than some boy from the forest, and Zelda has been many things other than a princess.
So many different paths & directions that this story can take, like a River of Time.
+Nexils When you say that you imply Zelda ends up with Groose, shame on you
0:57 Ghirahim, why are you magically teleporting?
20:08 "So... you know what you did to my toes..."
😂😂omg.
Wow....after 2 years of playing this game...now i realize the short lady with the red robe over her head was Impa -_-
+Stalker Xenomorph I was shocked.
+Stalker Xenomorph i realized when i first saw past impa.
i didnt shock me though...
Hahaha, Zelda games always mess with your mind.
+Black Arrow really looool
mmmmm
For me it wasn't demise or girahim that was the hard part
It was that fucking goblin battle that never fucking ended.
pure epic-ness. best series ever and a beautiful game. actually brought tears to my eyes when my screen read "The End".
really tugs on the heart strings don't ya think?
MegaIshimura ha ha! i get it. the harp.
Well since Nintendo was surprised about how well the romance elements were received they are looking to bring romance between Link and Zelda in some way on the Wii U Zelda game (not Hyrule Warriors)
Sadly not true after all :(
@@jimenaweraNot true at all? I'm guessing you never played BOTW because if you did you'd know that the two are in love.
John Smith Even then, it wasn’t really like that. It was obvious Zelda loved Link, but it was never really established that he was in love with her.
@@konjiki8203 Because he's been busy being asleep for the 100 years since he and Mipha stopped being an item.
*cough* botw
The battleground for the fight with the Demon King is amazing! Way more badass than being surrounded by a barrier!
I just finished this game today and have to say I think its the best Zelda yet. And the ending cutscenes are amazing! and so emotional. I honestly think nintendo have outdone themselves. And skyward sword 2, am hoping for that already..
Definitely not the strongest of the 3D Zeldas, not by a long shot. But dear god, the music is just fucking incredible. Very hard for me not to like it just on account of that fact alone, considering music has been such an important element in the franchise since Ocarina of Time.
I think the story is 100× better than than any other 3D Zelda game. But I've never played a Link between worlds and I hear its great
Fi's Farewell Makes Meh Cri
"How extraordinary, I've never seen a Man or Demon block my slow attack and then follow it up with an attack that I don't block before!"
How utterly disappointing for a final boss fight.
+4tahlulz4 To be fair, he had just reemerged after his minion sword preformed a summoning ritual in hasty circumstances... so maybe, I mean, story wise it makes sense...
No, he was just dumb. Story wise it would've made more sense to put him in a special needs class instead of killing him.
Are there any final boss fights from the Legend of Zelda series that you considered very good? In my opinion, there are ways to make each of the final fights very easy, so Demise wasn't very different in that regard. The first time I fought him I didn't use a shield.
Clearly Majoras Final boss and OOT final Boss; and maybe Twilight.
Not Twilight, Ganondorf is cool and all but the actual fight is boring, even more than demise.
16:18
Finally. You were very hasty and not trying to match his sword position until you got very low on hearts. You decided to slow down and finally got the pattern to break through his sword. Patience is necessary.
I don't know if i liked more Twilight Princess's ending and the game overall or if it's just nostalgia.
Eduardo Romero If you're just talking about the ending, you're probably biased, but the overall game may be different. A lot of people, not me, prefer Twilight Princess over Skyward Sword.
TP and SS are both my favourite games because they're so different, yet so similar and I have different memories with them
@@somany5 Twilight Princess is a game that I also loved thoroughly but I was severely underwhelmed by the ending. The final battle with Ganondorf was decent, but it kind od just felt like nothing after that moment.
Skyward Sword has the luxury of being a prequel story, so there's a lot of things to geek out about. And it really feels like an epic conclusion/beginning by the credits.
Be honest, how many of you freaked out when Girahim revealed he was basically Evil Fi? Like what the actual fuck. Demise gets someone with as much personality and flamboyance as Girahim and we get stuck with sword-bot for idiots Fi? Thanks Goddess Hylia
When the original Zelda theme started to play when they last showed the master sword
Perfect
Signifying the start of something grander
...The Legend of Groose!
20:37
Best part of the whole game
Skyward Sword Sequel? No. Every game is either a sequel or prequel.
Ganondorf is the same Ganondorf in every game, he is a reincarnation of Demise, and possesses the Triforce of Power so hes unable to die. In OoT, this is where he first comes to power, this is where the timelines for all the games split off.
The Link to the Past timeline is if Link failed to defeat Ganondorf and died, and he succeeded in obtaining the full Triforce, and corrupted the world of light and turned it into the Dark World. He is forever Ganon in this timeline.
The Majoras Mask and Twilight Princess Timeline is if Link beat Ganondorf, was sent back in time to be a child, and as a child he warned the Princess about Ganondorf when he came to meet the king in the castle. He was therefore put on trial. Since he held the Triforce of Power, he wasnt able to be killed, so they sent him to the Twilight Realm. The Heroes Spirit (the armored guy) is actually the OoT link passing his abilities down to the Twilight Link.
The Wind Walker timeline is if Link succeeded, was sent back to be a child again, but the future Adult Link timeline was left without a hero, and Ganondorf, being immortal, came back to find there was no hero to fight. He destroyed the world and the Gods were forced to flood it to stop him.
There cant be a sequel, Ganondorf hasnt done anything yet until OoT. He doesnt steal the Triforce of Power until OoT, he doesnt face Link until OoT, hes never even met the boy or the princess yet and doesn't even know the two possess the other triforces. When defeated in OoT, he vows revenge on Links ancestors. If we go and make a Skyward Sword Sequel, it cannot feature Ganondorf and Link in the same game, without totally destroying the timelines.
KewlCrayon Not necessary, not all Zelda games had Ganon as the antagonist. Majora and Vaati are examples.
Tao Liu from the Storyline, Minish Cap Comes BEFORE OoT... so Ganondorf didnt existed then... and Majora was just the direct Sequel what the Young link did after he beated ganondorf in OoT in then he wasnt in his power again cause Link and Zelda crossed his plans before he became king over hyrule, and in TP he gets punished for all he did
What I mean is, you can have side-sequels without screwing up the timeline.
Tao Liu well... i got the Hyrule Historia and there it says, one timeline stays for the old link who banished Ganondorf and what he will do next, one stays for the Young link (cause it makes sense for me that they will be seperated links) and another one is in my opinion really a side Sequel, where link gets defeated and thats going to wind waker, then Phantom hourglass, then this track Train crap one and then to the second Zelda ever and then to the very first zelda ever existed
Ganondorf eventually comes back in all three timelines, thus is the nature of their curse.
Thank you for making the final and second to last boss fights cinematic. People just make it look too easy when really, it is not. For motion controls, it is hard.
So... Many... feels. Fiiiiii, come back... :'(
27:16 Sure, Demise. You could just stand there and watch how Fi is going to rat out any weaknesses you might have, time that could've been spent on impaling Link.
0:52 link: (Da fuck is going on)
Then sees ghirahim down below dancing
Zelda: end me
Not my all time favorite zelda game but I have to say the ending was the most tear jerking, well written ending out of all the zelda games. This game is an absolute masterpiece, the opus of eiji aonuma. When they stepped through the gate to the other time, and you found that the old lady the entire time was actually Impa, and she said "See? I told you we'd meet again" I literally got chills and teared up uncontrollably. They made this game with nothing but art and fun in mind, excellent game
40:50 Zelda's Lullaby
Look at Ghirahim's funky dance moves!
epic game the best game in 2011!!!!
Man, these are credits I could watch all day :,) ..beautiful
Demise: ''Those like you... Those who share the blood of the Goddess and the spirit of the hero... They are eternally bound by this curse.''
Me: "Not my problem, this Hero has done his role. We all know the bloodline of Heroes are champions and will always follow through no matter what."
Good lad :)
At the end I thought I was gunna cry I was so sad it was over
Such a beautiful game...
41:01 gave me chill bumps to find out that was impa :)
'Past at Peace' has such a lovely melody.
Did Ghirahim ever get a 'Thank you' from Demise for go though so many fights with Link and all the shit? No? Nothing?... Then I wish ghirahim would in the fight between Demise and link, reminding his master, that the batteries are low.. Thats true evil. Because he gave him no thank you.
(Sorry for Bad englisch 😂)🇩🇪
I beat this game almost a month ago, and i'm still crying about it....
When you it said, "What about you, Light?" I freaked out cause I thought I was watching Final Fantasy XIII or something.
haha
you know i love the music and the cutscene the most
I can't help wondering what Groose did when he was alone with the unconcious Zelda...
Develepment of the companion:
Navi, Midna, Fi, and finally a speaking stone...
Anyone else cry?
So much answers my brain can't process!!!!
Thanks for posting this!
such a sad heartfelt ending.. only flaw I don't understand the purpose of demise sucking ghirahim into the sword he pulled out of him.. sure link kicked his ass multiple times but its not like he was dead and demise would've had a Little extra help that could've made all the difference in the final battled.. that final battle was horrible too..
Ghirahim IS Demise's sword, just like Fi is the Goddess/Master Sword. With the sword pulled out, what was left of Ghirahim was a lifeless corpse. Besides, I think Demise would rather have his weapon than a minion who's been defeated multiple times.
Demise' charge attack was a pain for me to. You stand at the distance where you expecting to get the lightning to hit your sword and BAM, he rushes you and you take damage. I was so focused on the lightning I never reacted quick enough to block.
Everyone's saying how sad the ending is, but the only thing that was making me cry was the gameplay.
this is why i can't sleep on the nigh
+Carcasa jajajajajajjajajajajajajajjajaja me too
amen...amen...
I know this was over a year ago, but I’m gonna say it anyway, I didn’t mind the gameplay, what bugged me was the fact that this game drained a wii remotes battery in heartbeat, so you would have to replace the batteries every two hours or so, which was beyond tedious. And the numerous recalibrations, but the actual gameplay mechanics weren’t terrible. Save beetle and lift wing controls, those could have been better.
Henry Knippling wtf kinda batteries are you using?
I love Link's "FUCK YOU BITCH" face as he stares down Demise
They should totally rename it The Legend Of Groose
Best Zelda final boss fight ever!!! Hands down
Considering Demise is an all powerful demonic entity who looks and acts utterly badass, it's disappointing to just see him swordfighting ............
He wasn't at his full power yet. He only JUST revived
Exactly.. This game was shit :/
+Ariana Yeah. Not to mention that his fight was disappointing. Final Ghirahim was honestly a better fight than his master.
***** agreed 100%
+Jorge Luis Barrios The game was awesome
And thus...Ganondorf was born!
Just completed this game tonight, ahhh I loved it! Although it's my 5th favourite Zelda game. (The ones I've played)
My list, my favourite to least favourite:
1) Link To The Past
2) Ocarina Of Time.
3) Twilight Princess
4) Link Between Worlds
5) Skyward Sword
6) The Phantom Hourglass
Still need to play Majoras Mask (Hope they do a remake!) But that's my list. (: Now have to start hero mode, although quite a few things annoyed me about this game. Silent Realm was quite a bitch xD And some bosses were annoying and long (Long cut scenes, The Imprisoned for example)
Still, as always, I enjoy any Zelda game loads and look forward to playing a new one. :)
***** I've completed it now xD
Did you know, in Majora's Mask, Link is actually passing into death? It's like the waiting room of life, the game's story line.
Venus Sattchi Not sure I follow.
Hadyn Clark If you havem't played Majoras Mask yet, it will definitely be in your top 5 :)
***** Played it, and it's in my top 3 xD
ALSO I don't know if anyone noticed, but Ghirahim sort of waits when he is holding up the huge sword to block you from hitting his diamond chest, he waits for you to do hit him until you mess up
Honestly, I'm going to go ahead and be that guy, but this game failed to provide a satisfactory ending. Obviously it couldn't stray from a cliche conclusion, but Demise was such a simple boss to defeat, once you figured out that you could use your sword similarly to the skyward sword after blocking his strikes a million times. It was still an incredible game, but I'll be damned if I can't say that for Demise's threats and formidable character design he was a bit of a two part pussy, my favorite kind? No, no that's all wrong...9.4
PS the hylian shield is a huge game changer now that I think of it
Notice that when the Boblikins blow the horn, it's the same notes used for the flute you get in Link To The Past. I nearly shat bricks when I first heard it.
this game was s horrible.
I love this game!
It was really, really bad :(
Horrible, eh? I can think of some horrible games. Daikatana, Charlie's Angels, Sonic 06, Postal III, Survivor, Bubsy 3D... there are a few horrible games.
And you're calling Skyward Sword "horrible," hmm? Exaggerating much?
It's not the best Zelda game. But not being the best Zelda game is like not being the fastest Olympic runner.
this game should kill itself.
dfffa but GROOSELAND
May we meet again in another life... Hearing Fi in botw just makes this scene even better then it is
When Demis said "Reancarnation" he's talking about Ganon. and Demise also talks about a curse for the whole entire "Link Time Line" about always fighting evil
but wind wakers link finishes it
22:47 "I've waited eons to return"
Wait but the demise who waited eons is dead now, they killed him with the triforce, isn't this after they go back in time to just after the war ends? This one hasn't been sealed for very long, he doesn't even have a concept of what's been happening in the millennia since
7:54
OH SHIT HE'S GOING SUPER SAYAN
Got to Final boss then my wii broke its times like this I really feel like shutting down
May we meet again in another life... Fi, she is in EVERY FUCKING MASTER SWORD! IT'S THE SAME FUCKING SWORD!
@thefray123 This game is pre and post navi by a good many years. It's been stated to be the starting point and end of the timeline. all games that come after are set after the start, and before the end. That makes sense if you finish the game lol.
42:08 It's hard to take Impa's death seriously when all I can hear is Groose crying in the background.
I grew up on this. Idk why i don't find it good anymore. But the game looks great. Played it as well early. 9/10
Fi, Navi, Midna, they all made me cry in the end. midna, cute chubby baby, is still yet my favorite.
Oh, and also being very flamboyant, narcissistic, awesome, quite a rager, and summoning an entire army of enemies to stop you also make him even more BADASS!
No lie one of the best games I have ever played
This game is awesome.
Some people say otherwise, and there are some good reasons to agree with them, but this is still one of the greatest Legend of Zelda games ever.
i'm seriously never going to look at zelda the same way again. never.
@BlademasterJale No, the scar is from the sword that was sealing The Imprisoned. Since Demise IS the Impresoned in pure form. The fact that Wind Waker's Ganon was stabbed in the head has no real relation, but perhaps it is just a symbolic means of "So you're going to send an incarnation of your hatred after me all the time? Well fine, I'll just stab them all in the head and seal them away until the next one traipses along." Like Ocarina (Ganon), or Wind Waker, even Malladus from Spirit Tracks.
Ghiragim: You’re far too quick boy
Link: Yeah this is the only Zelda game I can sprint in
He can sprint in Breath of the Wild too
Jacob Reynolds yeah but this was the first game he sprinted in and BOTW wasn’t a thing back then
TubeCaster Yeah I know that but at this point the joke doesn’t work as well because BOTW has been out for nearly two years
False considering other games like ALTTP have him use the Pegasus boot to move faster,so in reality while he can Sprint in this game,He can technically Sprint with the help of the Pegasus boots
Link: *Does his final battle with Ghirahim*
Choir: *SCREAMMMMM*
That fight was epic
It's funny how the final boss battle with Demise happened before the events of this game even started, meaning that Demise tries to escape again after degrading in his seal, only to be crushed to death.
