By that logic, if YOU were sucked into the game world, you would be able to do the same thing as Link. Once you know that Ganondorf is evil, you can tell everybody and prevent him from taking over.

Kakariko may SEEM comfy at a glance, but remember it's flanked by an active volcano on one side, a graveyard with actual ghosts on another side, is home to not one but two buried torture sites housing the vengeful undead, and also features a house full of cursed spider people. Plus the neighbors play their music really loud all night and you'd never get any sleep. The real chad move is to live at Lon Lon Ranch and work as a ranch hand. Comfy horseback riding, an endless supply of milk and dairy products, a jolly old man who entertains you with chicken hide-and-seek and is more than happy to marry off his incredibly beautiful songstress daughter to you, and the worst thing that happens there throughout the course of the game is a hostile buyout by the local Ganondorf fan.

Hell, even the hostile buyout is only a temporary issue. Even in a worst case where it gets so bad you have to leave, once Link changes things there you'll soon be seeing Malon selling Lon Lon Milk again where you learn the ranch is better. And given Malon and talon are nice people they'd no doubt happily accept you back.

It's important to note that when the Triforce splits, the pieces don't go toward whoever already possesses their qualities, but whoever desires each quality the most. Link being absent from the world and no longer seeking to prove his courage since he's watching KZread on your couch means he's disqualified now. Since you want to survive in Hyrule above all else, it's only fair that you get the Triforce of Courage.

Maybe you can do what Link does in the child timeline and snitch on Ganondorf by letting the King know that he killed the Deku Tree, put a parasite into Jabu Jabu, and is starving the Gorons. The only problem would be getting the King's attention and willingness to hear you out. If he listens, then Ganondorf is caught, executed, and Hyrule is safe far longer than a long human lifespan. This would probably lead to a similar world to the Child Timeline, except the Hero of Twilight wouldn't exist, which kind of screws over the events of Twilight Princess. Also, Termina would be destroyed unfortunately.

I think it's the "in-game" thing. Like, the crops exist in lore, but they are not present as something visible in the game. So if we treat this thought exercise as literally being sucked into the game as is, we can't obtain any, because they are not there.

Some things I found noteworthy: * Unless they saw you emerge from Link's House, the Kokiri probably wouldn't care about an adult being there, people visit Kokiri all the time, that's why there's a shop. They would, however, expect you to be only visiting. * The Deku Tree would absolutely hear you out, but he would absolutely not allow you to stay. Without the protection of a Fairy, you'd get lost in the mist and become a Stalfos. He'd probably give you some advice on where you could go at least. * The cows eat hay, so we can assume that NPCs need to eat, we just never see it on screen. * Do not eat Deku Nuts, those are not vegetables, they explode with a blinding light when hit hard enough. * How to get a place? Simple: Impa's house in Kakariko is open to the public, so people are just allowed to stay there if they don't have a home anywhere else. Alternatively, if you're okay with listening to people scream about how bad being cursed sucks, you could always crash in the House of Skulltula. * Possibly a continuation of the Cows eating Hay thing; In order for the hypothetical to make sense, we have to assume that the world becomes real (IE NPCs become people) or else no events happen and no one but us ages. In games like this, Time moves with the protagonists footsteps, so if we treat the NPCs as NPCs during the Hypothetical, Ganon becomes a non-threat, as does the pressure he's put on the various leaders of the land, as no future events will happen unless we walk into the exact correct place.

And how would mining blocks affect your own stamina? Even creating a hole in the ground that's the size of a Minecraft block can take about 30 minutes to an hour.

Step 1: Take triforce piece Step 2: Leave Hyrule Step 3: Profit?

Don't think you'd have to worry about the Triforce, actually. Ganondorf only got his hands on it because Link opened the Temple of Time and drew the Master Sword from its pedestal, thus giving Ganondorf access to the Sacred Realm. So unless someone else is able to find and gather the three sacred stones, get the Ocarina of Time, and learn the Song of Time, AND draw the Master Sword, Ganondorf isn't getting the Triforce. He's still a threat, sure, but not nearly on the level he is in the game.

@CaptDestro

Ай бұрын

They have potions, maybe they also contain vitamin c?

From a nutrition perspective: Yes you can survive without vegetables if you have access to meat and fish, ideally red meat and especially organ meats (Vitamin C is a bit dicey but you can get enough to *survive* from red meats), depending on quality and quantity you may suffer some minor nutritional deficiencies but it will not kill you. But it's worth noting that there probably are foods available in-universe, we don't see wheat farms and the like because they're likely boring and off-screen, but they likely exist. The food stalls can be assumed to be the stalls with large npc crowds in castle town (bread or fish perhaps?) and fish are plentiful. The large grass plants may also be edible, deku nuts are probably edible, as are deku seeds and magic beans. Potions may have excellent nutritional value as well since they restore your health, and I can't speak for recovery hearts but they may also grant nutrition. Skulltulas and other monsters may also be edible but that's purely speculative (but if them burning up into nothing on death is taken as a fact of the universe instead of a gameplay optimisation... well they're definitely not edible). I'd say that you can actually manage pretty well with just *confirmed* food sources (fish, cows, cuccos, nuts, and seeds, apparently the eyeball frog is a delicacy so we'll add frog meat to the equation as well) let alone the large clam enemies, deku skrubs, various potentially edible plants, potions, etc.

Listening to you talk through these questions makes me feel like a kid again.... which is pretty damn magical. It's nice to remember when the most important questions and priorities were those you made yourself.

If you know the plot of the game before entering, Ganondorf becomes a non issue. When Link goes back in time at the end of the game, he just snitches on Ganon to Zelda and tells her what he's gonna do. According to lore, he's then caught and executed as seen in twilight princess. Yeah he comes back but you'd be dead by then.

@@IrvineTheHunter but after link returns from the future, zelda and link presumably have triforce markings on their hand, which would give them more credibility (i think). At least that seems to be the reason why ganondorf has the triforce of power in TP, despite being caught before he follows link into the temple of time. Maybe a isekai protagonist could convince the king using lore knowledge or something. Like, most hylians dont know, that hylians came from skyloft originally, or that ganondorf is the reincarnation of demise, or that zelda is a reincarnation of the goddess hylia.

I feel like in fighting Ganon, you have a massive advantage, and that is foresight. Presumably for most people who watched this video, you're an adult, or at least not 12. Thus, it'll be easier for you to have influence in the world. Thus here is my game plan - Realize I've been transported into Ocarina of Time. Ask the kokiri to let me visit the great deku tree, and explain the situation. Try my best to convince them to let me have some supplies, then set out for the rest of Hyrule. At this point, I'm probably dressed like a kokiri, but to some extent, I look a bit more "normal." I travel to castle town, and simply tell everyone that I'm a traveler from a far off land. At that point, I begin to work to support myself, and while I do so, build relationships in the community, and keep tabs on Ganon. Because I know who Ganon is and what he's doing, I can build trust until I can warn the king and other groups in Hyrule. Heck, you could go as far as gathering other concerned citizens, and running espionage in Gerudo Valley, trying to thwart their plans. The difficulty without Link is that the way I see it, there's a strong likelihood that you are going to get involved in a much more traditional and brutal war. Fun! But seriously, Ganondorf is going to take this world by force, it's not as easy for him, you know what he wants to do, and he knows you can somehow anticipate his choices. War I'd say, is inevitable. There is, like you mentioned, the prospect of being deemed the new hero of time. If you take Link's place at the start, you might get pulled into helping the great deku tree, and thus getting the kokiri emerald - not a great start to make yourself less conspicuous to the whims of fate. Further, if you take an active role in stopping Ganondorf, which you should, because you have knowledge others don't, that will further spotlight you as someone uniquely suited to have the triforce of courage. It would be quite dangerous, but with potions, fairies, possibly even the master sword, and your unique ability to problem solve outside the original bounds of the game, I think defeating Ganondorf is very doable, especially if you are an experienced player of the game, and know a bunch of tricks to use.

@Genra

Ай бұрын

It's a good idea, though in the event you are the new Hero of Time you have to consider you are considerably less durable than any other inhabitant of Hyrule. Unlike Link, your body is more prone to bruises, cuts, maybe fractures, is likely less acrobatic, and has stamina issues like BOTW Link. This will go into wondering how do the magical items in the game affect you, like do Heart Containers make you more durable to stabs, or is it you can just like "bleed out" longer but still experience the pain of a sword stabbing you and staying there 😅. If it's the latter, you're basically just a OHKO to most enemies, not even talking Ganondorf. The best bet likely is to try and become the royal tactician like older Fire Emblem games, honing your intelligence on how to position troops so that you can still contribute to Ganondorf's defeat.

The old man at the laboratory mentions how eyeball frog eyes are a delicacy he enjoys and how if it wasnt needed for medicine, that night’s dinner would be special because of it. The gorons also are in a predicament due to their food source being closed off, granted they eat rocks but I think the idea remains that NPCs do eat even if we dont see them do so. Theres also fish that are widely available in many bodies of water so it wouldnt strictly be red meat, and Id imagine cucco eggs and milk/other dairy products would be available since we get both eggs (to be hatched, not eaten) and milk in the game.

I really enjoy the strange yet logical rabbit hole of questions that you ponder from this series. Like on one side of the coin you're worried about nutrition, but on the other you're questioning if Ganondorf would get to the sacred realm on his own, who the triforce of courage would go to without Link around, and if that person could even succeed at defeating him. Idk there's just something very satisfying exploring the question of "could you survive here?" where you really consider so many different angles.

Combination of survival and impossible wacky situations. Really makes me sad that I can't go and try to experience and test myself in it. But the genre is my new favorite.

"There are so many people in this world, it would be easy to find a little group you fit into" Me: Um... *looks around nervously*

I'd think the Kokiri would most likely assume that a random human showing up is probably fine because what are they gonna do- leave? Clearly they were supposed to end up here, that's why they're not a Stalfos, silly! It's the Deku Tree you'd need to worry about, but tbh, he'd probably meet you with curiosity more than anything else as long as you're honest and peaceful. Might still make you leave but if he does, you'll probably just be led out to the forest entrance and set free. At worst, they just force you out into the woods. As for Ganondorf, you could speak with the Deku Tree and tell him you have knowledge of events that he too is privy to (such as his curse). With that, you might have some realistic chance of warning the king of Ganondorf's betrayal. A human that entered the Kokiri village unharmed without a fairy AND came back out unharmed? That sounds pretty serious, he might actually give you consideration Effectively this is what Zelda does after sending Link away anyway, she just warns the king successfully in her childhood. Then you'd be set until he breaks free like a century later. Could argue it's too meta but I think simply warning others should count as a realistic and therefore viable option since we're assuming NPCs still have jobs and renewable resources and the like.

@WasatchWind

Warning others is a lot easier cause most viewers here are older than 12 I'd wager, and that is a big point in your favor. Knowing what Ganondorf is planning beforehand, even if the king doesn't listen, is going to help you a lot. Something like wait for Ganondorf to ride out of castle town after Zelda, and have a magical trap laid for him. Incapacitate him, and bring him to the castle as prisoner while trying to negotiate with the Gerudo for an end to hostility. The difficult thing I keep running into is that while you have a good chance of stopping Ganondorf from successfully getting the three stones, you opposing him, lengthening his timeline to victory, and generally making his life more difficult has a good chance of starting a real traditional war.

Interesting Video! Honestly I really would ask if I could stay in the Kokiri forest/village and would try to socialize to the other kokiri and would everything learn from them (also how to find a way through the forest, and with an ocarina or just sining, I could maybe find a way to play with the horror kids also, even as an adult - 'cause maybe they would stop attack you when u play/sining something. And since everybody of us would know Saria's Song, that wouldn't be a problem). The only thing I think u forgot to mention about the food is: Milk. You will get so much milk from the cows/lon-lon-plp everytime. And when there's milk, there should also be a way to make cheese, quark and other things with it. And maybe the chickens also give eggs, so another protein giver. And with all that, maybe there is a way to bake something too! So there are more options to food than just meat everytime.

15:10 So basically, a ranch? Everyones mentioning the magic beans, but theres also the medicinal shroom from one of the side quests that you get to give to the guy in order to cure him(he turns into a stalfos though)

Even taking that motivation out of the equation, the world doesn't actually get THAT much worse with Ganondorf in charge. Well it gets worse for the Kokiri, Zora, and Gorons. But for Hylians it doesn't change that much. Everyone moves from Castle Town to Kakriko, which would be at most a day of travel. AND!

Counterpoint: WW Ganondorf is A LOT more mature than OoT Ganondorf. He lost, he learns from his loss, and he's had THOUSANDS of years of being sealed to contemplate his defeat orchestrated by the goddesses, and his motivations. And having been sealed a second time between OoT and WW. OoT Ganondorf hasn't any of that. He's a king riding high on power and conquest. That's the same reason why TP Ganondorf isn't as wise as WW Ganondorf. He NEVER lost to Link, He never faced real defeat, therefore he can't learn from it, and instead of thousands of years contemplating his loss and motivations, he instead has thousands of years of rage. He wasn't beaten by a hero sent by the goddesses, he was beaten by a king who didn't fall for his false allegiance. He wasn't sealed by the sages awakened by the goddesses, he was executed by the old sages, and awakened to power, resulting in him being sealed in the twilight realm. That's why TP Ganondorf makes the exact same mistakes as OoT Ganondorf. He's learned nothing, and is the same man from OoT MO wise.

The issue with replacing Link as a human is, unless you're actually a child, there is a good chance you're already screwed. Even by taking the "Ocarina of Time as-is" aspect and thus ignore outside media about what happens to adults getting too deep into the woods, it will nonetheless make the Deku Tree go "How did you slip past my magic radar?" and depending on how things goes, that can go badly. The best hope is the Deku Tree noticing that there is something unique about "human-replacing-Link(tm)", but that has a good chance that person would be loaded with big responsibility. Nevermind that the Deku Tree is bound to die within the first day of arriving in the world, which will negatively affect the safety of the world (and give Ganondorf a free jewel).

The answer to who gets the Triforce of Courage is actually solved in Cadence of Hyrule. Link still would. And he'd be taken back to Hyrule by it. The Triforce was needed while Ganon was still a child, so Link got the Triforce of Courage, Zelda got the Triforce of Wisdom... and Cadence from Crypt of the NecroDancer got the Triforce of Power, and she was pulled into the Legend of Zelda world to help the other 2.

In WW they have to make a completely new hero due to a lack of the spirit of the hero, and usually Ganon doesn't wait around for that to come in many games. Yet in Cadence of Hyrule they straight up go- "yeah, uh here's your temporary teiforce of power for this threat💀". The only irreversible one would probably be if Zelda's bloodline were to end, since from what I recall the triforce of wisdom is tied particularly to that.

This series is FANTASTIC I can’t wait for the next one

This is a top tier series, I can *definitely* see this continue to get bigger as you continue to get better at making it.

To spin the speculative yarn of food availability in a real-time and scale Hyrule, I'm literally diving into a HUD element so bear with me. If you were to have a pack of all the typical adventuring equipment, bottles and junk, being entrusted with Epona in the adult timeline seems to indicate that she eats from a supply of carrots you keep on hand. This is just the symbol used for sprinting (unlike spurs in Twilight Princess), if we translate the fricken _sprint distance_ from in game time and space to real world proportions it's logical that these carrots do grant Epona the energy to gallop faster over longer periods. And if we fully hinge on this idea of carrots being a tangible resource then the amount of time to regain sprints is the amount of time it would take to forage for carrots, which seem readily available anywhere in the overworld Epona has access to (which are just travel regions with fast forwarding time). Combine the assumption of wild carrots growing in abundance across Hyrule with milk, eggs, and steaks, we've almost got a food pyramid to choose from. Unless, of course, we are just sitting in a kilometer long stretch of flat polygons watching the sun pass every four minutes, but that lacks fantasy.

Don't forget that Ganondorf also needs the Ocarina of Time, and the Song of Time, to open the door; even if he gets all 3 stones, that's not enough. That was why, after returning to his time, child Link warned Zelda of Ganon's plan, took the Ocarina with him, and left Hyrule. HOWEVER, we know that in the timeline where Link never opens the door, Ganondorf and the Gerudo end up going to war with the Kingdom of Hyrule. So the world wouldn't face a borderline apocalyptic event, and we do know that Hyrule ended up winning the war. But you do also risk getting caught in a war if you're a citizen of Hyrule, and odds are you'd probably die--the Gerudo are powerful warriors. Therefore, if you try to live with the boundaries of Hyrule Kingdom, death would be on the horizon. Hiding in Kokiri Forest would probably be your best shot at survival.

This is a great series and I'm looking forward to it continuing!

Ganondorf also is a lot more low key in this game, so you could perhaps ignore him. If you wanted to, you could even go so far as to lead the canonical expedition to New Hyrule, and leading the founding of a new nation. Hard to find many long term projects in a game that would be as fulfilling as that. I think the hardest thing though with Wind Waker would be the sudden disappearance of Link. Suddenly he's gone, everyone is sad, and then his sister is kidnapped. Pretty crappy situation. I prefer the Isekai premise then of you just dropping in, and nothing else has changed.

For example, in this video, we've assumed that 1: NPCs wouldn't need food, and 2: NPC creatures such as cows, horses, and chickens would have nutritional value I'm okay with the conclusions drawn from that, but looking at this scenario from another perspective involves incongruities. Do the horses, cows, chickens, etc need to eat? If not, what are they made of that makes them provide nutritional value? If we flipped this and claimed that all NPCs would need to eat as soon as we arrived, would our arrival bring turmoil to the world? If correlation was discovered between this dynamic change and our presence, would we be hated? If we go back to us being the only being that needs to eat, and we examine the farm animals again, we also have to contend with the fact that the game doesn't normally have any need to re-spawn them (aside from cuccos--more on that next), because they're never supposed to be defeated. Would the game make another script call to spawn all the horses and cows back in when you return after slaughtering any of them? Cuccos can never be defeated either. They're invincible, and trying to eat them puts your life in serious jeopardy. You might even be able to temporarily neutralize Ganon with them if you can safely trick him into attacking one. All of this is just food for thought though. You obviously can't even begin to consider the logistics of living in a game world unless the game's assets and environments are translated into realistic analogues to some degree, but going for complete realism makes most of these worlds fall apart. If we go for no concessions, we have a world so incongruent from our own that our very existence there is quite impossible. If we go for "complete" realism, then all of the water would eventually find itself over the side of the limited map, and we'd have no guarantee a flat, segmented world could even maintain an atmosphere. I think you've drawn a decent line on where to balance everything.

Yeah I've definitely thought about this. At the end of the day, I kinda just don't think about it too hard hahaha. I could spend a couple minutes talking about the food chain and how everything is supplied, but I don't think anyone wants to hear that. It's like answering a kid's question, and then they say "Why?", so you answer that and they ask "Why?" again. You could go down a never ending spiral like that. I just gotta call it at some point and make some core assumptions.

​@@PretzelYTI feel like the best strategy for the future is considering what exists in canon. Carrots appear on Epona's stamina meter, so I think it's reasonable that you could obtain carrots. I perhaps favor a too liberal interpretation of this however, as I'd say you can visit other kingdoms like Labrynna, because they exist in the canon.
