This is my first long video so bear with me and my amateur video skills🤣🤣🤣If you agree with the video, drop a comment. If you think everything in the video is some BS, drop a comment for that to. HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!!

A fun lil video in the spirit of Zelda team's, "we have a timeline, but honestly we encourage you to make your own if it makes more sense to you"

Interesting that the AI depicts Hylia as the goddess above the other three. I always assumed it was opposite with the three golden goddesses creating Hylia to defend the Triforce and watch over the world.

Excellent job!!! I gotta say I hold every Zelda in pretty high regard except Triforce Heroes. Its the only Zelda game I sold within three days of buying it.

Yeah that game is pretty whack. I still have it just to say i have it lol

I love how you pronouce ZeldaR and OcarinaR with that strong "R" at the end xD

I really like the idea of there being multiple hero's between oot and ww which they all think is the Hero of Time which is why they want his aid and not the aid of some recent hero.

This is really well done. I wouldn't apologize for anything. Let people that like it, like it for what it is. Sure, get better over time but, this is good for the time that it was made in.

Thanks! I really tried with the visuals as best as possible lol. I was trying to make a video before Master Works comes out to see if I'm either on to something or if I'm totally way off lol. I'm glad you enjoyed

I have some issues with the timeline itself, namely how TotK follows OoT/MM somehow, but my gripes aside, this was a good video. Keep it up!

Technically everything follows those games as their pretty early in the actual Nintendo timeline. My gripe was really the retconning of OoT with the events in TotK. But hey what can you do lol

The timeline split. No if ands or buts about it.

@HyruleHystorian

Well, BotW and TotK actually refute those facts as many things are found in those games that contradict a timeline split. I'm not saying I'm right or wrong, but a unified timeline from the beginning makes a tad more sense than a "reconvergence" of all 3 timelines as there are no events or evidence to support that. Also, there's a "popular opinion" on the reasoning for the Downfall timeline making no sense since it's brought about through Link dying in the battle with Ganon in OoT, which would mean there should be a new timeline every time a player has a game over, or at the very least, at the end of every final fight since technically Link has a possibility to lose every one of those fights as well. Either way, it's just a fun video! Hope you enjoyed!

Perfect: no notes

So does this mean originally Ganondorf wanted the Triforce but went for the secret stones instead only after seeing Zelda use it? That sorta would make sense.... This video is pretty interesting man

That's actually a cool observation! I didn't even notice that myself lol. That actually brings more perspective to a certain scene in TotK where Ganondorf stares down the stones after his attack fails bcuz he never stated what he was after before the attack. Nice!

underated affff

I really don’t understand the jump from Majora’s Mask to the Imprisioning War. It feels throw there without any connection or thought. I mean, after Link warns Zelda about Ganondorf, the plan from the demon king fall apart, right? So, what happened then? Did the Hyrule king arrest him? Did he die? Where the Zonai enters the story? How many years separate Ocarina of Time from the Imprisioning War? Is it even the same Ganondorf? Can someone try to clarify all of this?

@HyruleHystorian

The video definitely explains it lol. After Link warns Zelda, the kingdom prepares for Ganondorf's coming attack. Majora's Mask happens a few months after OoT. A couple of years after Majora's Mask, Ganondorf actually attacks and almost succeeds but gets sealed in the process. This is the cannon event, that's not even AI. I'm assuming you haven't beaten A Link to the Past or Tears of the Kingdom as both games explain that event (though slightly different). Even in Twilight Princess' cannon, Ganondorf was not arrested/dealt with immediately. So, to answer your questions, The King has his army fight Ganondorf and his army. Ganondorf does not die nor gets arrested, he is sealed by Rauru. The Zonai was always there as Rauru, The Light Sage, was a Zonai. The Imprisoning War possibly takes place 1-2 years after Ocarina of Time. I hope that helps.

@@HyruleHystorian thank you so much, and im sorry for my confusion, i still have some more questions, like how Rauru the Zonai (not the sage in the sacred realm) is the king while he is nowhere to be seen in Ocarina of Time? As my understanding Zelda’s king in OOT is a hylian, right? And where is the OOT Zelda in the events of the imprisioning war? We have the Zelda of Tears of the Kingdom warped to the past for the events for the imprisioning war, but if this event is just a few years after OOT then where is the OOT Zelda? Where is the hylian king of Hyrule?

@@leodefine86 No worries!!! I appreciate the engagement. Apparently (in regard to the real lore, not my video), the Light Sage Rauru was always a Zonai, but the legends and stories passed down about the Zonai were lost to time and the stories told assumed everyone was Hylian. Now as for why Rauru is the king and the events of OoT are weird in TotK, here's a quote from Nintendo themselves: "...but of course, it could be that we're wrong as well!" (Yes, they actually said this about TotK lol that the story shown could be incorrect). So, with Ninty saying what we see is possibly wrong, the OoT king is still most likely Hylian. OoT Zelda would've still been a child and wouldn't be involved in any events of the Imprisoning War. OoT Zelda was more than likely in the castle being a kid as she would have been 12-13yrs old with no need to train with Impa since this is a timeline where she warns them, which would explain how BotW Zelda and Queen Sonia were on to Ganondorf's plan and weren't deceived at all. Hope this helps!

Personally, i agree that the Four Sword era should be its own thing instead of where Nintendo placed it on the Timeline. But everything else throws specific facts that can easily be matched to other games just from the world itself. For example, the Timeline split, we can all agree that the Downfall Timeline needs to be reworked to better fit. But one thing we can all agree is that the Child and Adult Timeline are just fact. One Timeline doesn't disappear bc Link went back in time. If anything, we know "adult" Link went back maybe an hour or so before that Timeline's Link was sealed. As we know Link finds Zelda still in the castle and not running away on horseback with Impa. Yes, i am saying that at that moment in time there were 2 Links, one just starting his journey and the other exiting the Temple of Time.

I get where you're coming from, but the official timeline uses String Theory to explain time travel, where any changes in the past branch off a form a "new" reality. In this video, I'm using the Grandfather Paradox to explain time travel, which is where any changes made in the past would erase the future and "overwrite" it in a sense. This theory is to clean up most of the anomalies presented in BotW and TotK. As for the multiple Links reasoning you've given, I'm a bit confused. There couldn't have been 2 Links since Princess Zelda uses the same power that the Pedestal of Time uses to time travel. The pedestal sends a persons spirit through time to inhabit a body, not ones physical being. Links spirit is sent into a past or future version of his body. Zelda sends Link spirit back to inhabit the body that existed an hour or so before encountering a young Zelda. With your theory (a cool one none the less), what happens to the second Link? I'm genuinely intrigued lol

This is absolutely brilliant ! The only gap I feel still exists is the Rito sage who was with Rauru during the imprisonment war as the Ritos are said to appear later or did I miss the explanation?

Hmmm.... Now that you mention it, yeah, there was no mention by the A.I. about that... Let's chalk it up to Nintendo's reasoning of "but of course, it could be that we're wrong as well! " (Yes, they did actually say that about TotK lol that the story shown could be incorrect) But that's a great question none the less!

Canonically, Zelda 1 & 2 happen only a few years apart from each other. In the backstory of those two games, a Zelda was put into a deep sleep (which is in the game manual for Zelda 2), so when you wake up the princess at the end of Zelda 2, the princess in Zelda 1 is still alive as well. Canonically there was always two Zeldas at the end of Zelda 2.

​@@juanmanuelcardona19 I think you may have missed the point of the video. I asked the AI to unify the timeline by taking all of the cannon Zelda information and use it to put it in an order where there's no timeline split without changing any lore yet still explains everything without error. I'm aware of the actual timeline lol. And it's actually Twilight Princess and A Link to the Past that happen at the same time, that's why their events are similar. In this certain aspect of why Twilight Princess happens after Spirit Tracks, this unified timeline made it so that in Breath of the Wild, the presence of rock salt from an ancient sea makes sense if a timeline were to have been a straight line without branches

@HyruleHystorian generative AI, even the written form can be harmful for the environment. It also is often trained on the writing/messages of those who didn't consent! I always recommend people don't even use it for ideas when writing. Just because something is fun, doesn't mean its good. Maybe you could try interviewing other Zelda fans or running polls for videos instead.
