Exactly, it's just a bunch of crap. And it's such a bunch of crap, I'm not sure they should bother investing any thought into it at all.
Then why did they make this?

Sorry, but I'm a huge zelda fan and even I agree with him. The timeline they made is complete bullshit.
Of course, for the games that came out way before it, but that doesn't mean they can't/didn't put thought into it for this game. If they spent all that time on the TL, then actually why wouldn't they going fwd?

I wish I knew the answer to that, but they did NOT take the timeline into consideration when making botw. No way. If you disagree, feel free to tell me where and how it fits.

Congrats, you just proved that the timeline is bullshit and they didn't take it into consideration. Linebeck and Mabe Village are from the two separate timelines.

Any time line could share similarities as well as differences.
Well duh.... Zelda is fiction. They can write whatever they want. Doesn't change the point, however, that it doesn't fit in the timeline anywhere. Naming lakes and towns from other games from completely seperate timelines doesn't exactly help your case.

They might not have taken it into account, or maybe they did. Its just annoying when people act like they know something for certain that is clearly speculation. Unless Nintendo comes out and says, hey we did/did not consider the TL at all when making the game, then we know nothing for certain one way or the other.

They did make an official statement, see my link a few posts back. They said this game takes place after ocarina of time. I'm saying based on what I saw in game, that's bullshit.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Are you being for real, cause that's hard to believe, DK is Nintendo and made in japan, Sea of thieves was from Microsoft, in America. I'm not calling you a liar, just didn't know.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Ok yes they were both made by Rare, but DK was from Rare back then, Rare now is owned by MS. So makes since.
