best waifu

I WANT TO FUCK FI

Have a wonderful day.

Her skirt almost hit the right spot.

It's called mentalism, you dip. And I wanted HW Zelda to win.

>/lozg/ #21 - All hail /lozg/'s queen Edition
>implying she stands a chance against Midna

Of course you wanted.

Against an ugly gremlin? No way.

Midna is best

>My waifu lost the poll!
>this poll is rigged!
Every. Time.

Don't be indecent with Fi.

SHALOM GOYIM, WHAT BRINGS YOU TO ME?

My only true Zelda waifu is Link.

Well said.

Does anyone here use a name other than Link when making their save file?
I can stand using anything else.

Truly the best waifu.

I use my name.

I usually use my shortened name. But I don't mind if in BotW I can't.

What are you up to today, /lozg/?

All the time. I remember doing an Oracles linked game as Ganon, and lately I've been using Sheik instead. Neither are as good as the idea of using "I say" so that everyone sounds like Foghorn Leghorn, but you can't win them all.

Catching up on anime, eventually I will continue with level 4 on TloZ and hope I don't miss shit in a dungeon that makes me spend 3 hours or so just fucking around

Trying to get back into drawfaggotry but I don't know if I should.

Looking for a job.

Playing eroge

Only in my second playthrough, and even then it's a rare chance.

I only use Link in my second one too. But i do this always.

Reminder that Sheik is MALE

Make a bigger Sheik and i'll agree with you

It's a retard, what could you expect?

????

I could save that picture and give it a Veeky Forums filename. You know that most pictures with Veeky Forums filenames you see around are from tumblr, pixiv or deviantart?
>Filename autism

I don't see any animals being fucked there.
Unless you're accusing half of every pet owner of bestiality.

Aren't they?

It's not autism. It's complainfag being an idiot.

>comparing deviantart and pixiv to tumblr

a lot of tumblr artists upload their shit to DA and Pixiv, and vice versa

>complainfag

Are you that guy that thinks that everyone who disagrees with you is just one person?

I don't care about the filename, but don't save a shitty thumbnail next time.

Not, he's boogeyman

>original zelda didn't win
Bullshit.

what do you expect? this general is at least 50% skywardsword-playing manchildren.

We should start a poll on who believes this shit was rigged.

Autism about quality is as bad as autism about filenames.

Sure, so I can complain the new poll is rigged too.

...

So, you are just as cancerous as the guy that bitches and moans about the resolution of emulated games.

You are free to do what you want senpai

t. guy who plays classic games stretched to fit his monitor

No black bars allowed.

Does he understand that this is racism?

...

i wish there was one where he used the glider after that

As far as we know, you unlock the glider after you completed all the shrines around the Plateau. The old man gives it to you.
I doubt someone managed to complete them all during the short E3 demo.

Sorry for the late reply I've been busy.
Master, yes sometimes.
Link, never. Rather, I have her use my own name.

I'm not sure the demo players had time to get to that point.

Dealing with a level of depression where I've hit the point where I'm not socializing with anyone or working on my projects

Contemplating running through the minish cap though

What a coincidence, I'm doing the same thing as you.

Getting interested in something physical.
It's been a long time since that's happened.

>Autism about quality is as bad as autism about filenames
>Disliking quality
kill yourself f a m

>Wolf link fanboys are elitists
Woah. Now I know I won't answer to those posts anymore.

Would it be better to play Orcarina of Time and Majora's Mask on a console or the 3DS? Is there any difference on how they play?

Framerate is the biggest difference. And it's better on 3DS.

Your reaction when the Sheikah Slate doesn't function when you wander outside of the towers range?

OoT has that stone things that turned me off. I didn't play it enough to say if it is better or not. But by looks alone i'd say that 3DS is better.

>Can you hear me now?

Towers are activated in a second moment. So the slate shouldn't work since the beginning.

Hyrule running on Sprint?

Those stones are completely optional, why is that even a problem?

They look awfully out of place. I didn't say that they forced me to use them.

Stones? I feel like I'm personally lost her beyond the rumble pack stone.

Oh yeah, they did looked out of place, I'll give you that.

It was just a thing that bothered me when i had like 10min playing it.

So, which one is your favourite timeline?
>Pre-split timeline
>Downfall timeline
>Child timeline
>Adult timeline
Bonus points if you say where BotW fits into.

Inb4
>Hurr there are no timelines xD
Yeah, we know, sure, shut up.

there are no timelines xD

Adult is probably my favorite, I like all of the games in that timeline quite a lot. Yes even PH and ST. PH has it's flaws with the Ocean King Temple and ST with it's final boss and such, but I still enjoyed them quite a lot.

I'd say Downfall timeline because it got most of my favourite games.
I hope BotW is in the Adult one though.

Sneakily trying to start a discussion on why BotW belongs in the Downfall. We already read everything you had to say and what there is to be said about that. Please don't.

Yeah, we know, sure, shut up.

Uh no. I genuinely want to know your guys' opinions. In fact, BotW is a bonus answer and totally not needed. Every theory is equally good or bad until we see more details.

Downfall timeline, BotW is either before WW or somewhere before or after the ALttP/OoX/LA/ALBW serie.

Stop stirring up shit, cunt. Be quiet once in a while.

Adult line has probably had the best world come from it.
Child line is where it seems BotW is most likely to happen.

I don't really have a favorite timeline now. Before it was the Adult one, i like sailing and the art style of it is to my liking and fits Zelda perfectly imo.

I believe BotW is set in the Child timeline, after TP.

...

i believe that BotW takes place in a convergent timeline, due to the hints and references in many recent zelda titles.
long fanfic post ahead, read at your own discretion.
the timeline where link and ganondorf are childhood bros, but cant be friends forever due to demise's curse.
they share a heartfelt moment and does a 1v1 swordsman duel, Link doesnt want to kill him but ganondorf grabs Links master sword and runs it through himself, hugging Link as he gets to the end of his blade. Link is extremely conflicted and somewhat questioning the gods as ganondorf dies with a smile on his face knowing that he died as himself before demise's curse morphs his body into a mindless Ganon. Link then finds out that there is a conspiracy.
there is no good and evil and Hylia was acting on her own benefit just as Demise has, and Link is the winning piece. Like who Link choses what side to be on, then either Demise or Hylia wins, like a game of who conquers the world for a generation.
but before Link does something about it, he is killed by Zelda, Sheikah or Demise's cronies starting the cycle anew

I've been saying it's converging timelines since day dot, but nobody believes me.

There is a part of me that believe that it is a convergence too. But to not dive into timefuckery i chose to stick to one of the traditional ones.

Because people are looking for theories with backing more than they are looking for interesting story ideas.

i believe its convergent and BotW takes place before Zelda 2 and is a reboot or after Classic Zelda, as the master sword is rusted and may break like Aonuma broke Zelda conventions.
Impa might be in BotW too as she and HoT were doing time shenangians as well.

Downfall, it has the biggest collection of great games bar none.

BotW I'm guessing is either a merger or is in its own unique timeline. I don't see Nintendo shoving a Zelda of this magnitude into a random timeline, not even Downfall.

Yeah, ok, but what is your favourite timeline

>the master sword is rusted and may break like Aonuma broke Zelda conventions
I can see what you're going for, but please leave.

Converging and taking place before Zelda 2? So you're saying that it will destroy the current timelie setup completely.

Convergence is not interesting. It's the most boring idea that popped out around. It's like an idea coming straight from a person that zero immagination or too scared to pick up a position.
