This is a general about all Zelda games, mainline and spin-offs like Hyrule Warriors, and all discussions related to the LoZ series. All Breath of the Wild discussions are welcome.
Also, if I recall correctly Nintendo uploads a new screenshot of the game each day.

Reminder that Sheik is MALE

Introducing: Best Girl.
Kevin Reed
I see gerudos improved with the time. So, Child timeline confirmed?
Jacob Nelson
>paid online >But best Zelda Despair but also an erection
Anthony Smith
She is fuck ugly wow
Isaiah White
It's a pain, I agree. But whatever console I buy, I am forced to pay so I better get used to it.
Elijah Davis
So it is confirmed by the deku tree that this is actually a link we've already played.
The only three links that have met the deku tree before are the Hero of Time (OoT), the Hero of Winds (WW) and the Hero of the Skies (SS).
Which link would you say is it? My guess is either WW, due to his outfit, or the Hero of the Skies, due to the Sheikah stones that already appeared in SS.
Jason Brown
B U S H Y R O W S
it grows on me
Caleb Gray
Kill yerself my man
William Diaz
>it is confirmed What the fuck, no, it isn't
Juan Thompson
It is. The Deku Tree recognizes link.
Jackson Smith
Anyway, yes, it's definitely WW link in my opinion too.
Bentley Parker
Just post all the press pics already pls
William Butler
The fact the Deku Tree recognizes Link doesn't mean he is a Link himself. Both Deku trees in OoT and WW both saw Link. BotW Deku is the WW Deku.
James Morris
Are there other pics?
Lincoln Smith
uhm. you know that theres only one Deku Tree, right? The OoT one IS the WW one.
Jaxon Davis
I saw the red zora girl (male) on the other thread
Hudson Reed
>The OoT one IS the WW and BotW one Fixed.
Ethan Parker
Forgot to mention, it was on /v/
Samuel White
and its also the same one that was planted in SS by the Hero of the Skies.
Evan Taylor
Let's see if I can group them all.
Jeremiah Fisher
I was on the fence about preordering the switch but the artificial scarcity and how quickly it's selling out has convinced me.
Pre orders were supposed to go up on Canadian Amazon 50 minutes ago. Anybody in rake land know if they already sold out?
Kayden Price
Oh yeah the Treehouse stream started. Maybe they'll show more BotW?
It is a well known fact italian dubbers are the best.
Anthony Gray
I only like the Russian and German ones.
Charles Lee
Convergence in what point though? They said once again 100 years passed since Link's defeat. But which Link's defeat? The current Link can't be multiple Links at the same time. I don't know, the convergence theory still isn't very reliable to me.
David Diaz
>Nintendo's favorite apparently) How can you tell?
Dylan Miller
German doesn't really sweep me off my feet but maybe I just need to hear more. Zelda sounds alright, though.
Mason Scott
>the german one Are you high? Zelda sounds so fucking cringey
Jackson Fisher
Hold on, is that fish a male or a female?
Hudson Ortiz
I weighed all the characters and liked German the best desu. Zelda sounds the way she looks to me, kind of subdued and womanly but still young.
Does it matter?
Henry Jackson
Do fishfuckers count as furries
Jason Flores
Did I hear that right? They'll be rereleasing the wolf amiibo that came with TP collector's edition?
Jack Ortiz
Do fishes have fur?
Colton Brown
>Zelda sounds the way she looks to me, kind of subdued and womanly but still young. Also the cry sounded more stressed than forced in my opinion and it seems like this Zelda arc has her more stressed out than the other games judging by the dialogue. The Japanese cry was just terrible in comparison, totally unrelatable.
Yes.
Xavier Campbell
Nah, those are Scalies
Evan Carter
Yep. In America at least. The Wolf amiibo was already released as a standalone in EU.
Isaac Reyes
press kit download where?
James Wright
Is there some kind of black taint involved or is that just dirt?
Cameron Bennett
If anyone is watching the treehouse stream, well, the Switch is very sleek I must admit. Them small cartridges too.
Dylan Smith
Where are you guys getting those character arts from?
On a similar note, anyone picking up pic related? Historia was green, this is red, so I wonder what the last will be.
Christopher Kelly
I'm one of the few Anons who thinks this new Zelda is a new/different timline all together or some sort of merging/reset of the timelines
To many races, places, objects, that contradict it being from one single timeline
Aaron Barnes
Russkiebro here. The Russian dub is bad, overacted and stiffly translated, but the effort is commendable. Never did I think that in my lifetime there'd be a Zelda not only with voice acting, but also in Russian. What a time to be alive.
Aaron Murphy
I found them in a /v/ thread.
The last one will be blue, like Link's new tunic.
Logan Baker
The Zoras canonically evolved into bird people. Unlike the Gorons, they were gone. This trailer has both bird people and Zora. The world map has landmarks, statues and buildings of the child timeline.
100 years ago something happened. I say that's where the timelines were merged.
The dozens of references and unique elements of the adult timeline make it unquestionable that it's part of the game. The least likely line to be included is downfall. They either left downfall alone or considered the 'ruin' in the plot to be the unique mark of that line.
Anyway, pictures like yours are what tell me that we get a full merge.
The game is about Zelda's mistakes. It was her soul who did all the timefuckery. She tried to fix it, and surprise, everything went down again.
Jackson Gonzalez
Not giving a fuck about timelines master race reporting in.
Ayden Adams
I feel exactly the same about the italian dub. I lived long enough to hear Zelda dubbed and in my own language on top of that.
Ethan Jackson
If we assume this game takes places between OoT's adult ending and WW before the flood, all those races being together makes sense. Inb4 "Koroks born after the flood", no, nobody ever implied that.
Andrew Anderson
I hope Link never ever utters a word
Gabriel Powell
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEARGH
Eli Price
What if Zoras became birds because they started fucking with those bird people we saw? >timefuckery Oh yes, I missed that meme, bring it back.
Samuel Evans
So will there be an option in-game to switch dubs?
How was this gif made?
Nolan Campbell
Evolution of species to change from one to another due to a drastic change in their environment happens over thousands of years and for video game sake 100s of years. It just wouldn't work if this was set in that barracket.
Also one key thing to remember is that one of the resources you can collect that is EVERYWHERE in this game is Red Sea Salt. Which would imply that a large body of water has disappeared and created Red Sea Rock Salt.
Cameron Carter
Pancakes!
Grayson Stewart
>How was this gif made? Pretty sure it comes from the son of a Glitch video of WW. Or a similar kind of video. And then, they looped it.
Jonathan Wood
Soooo, we are after the flood? After all the events of spirit tracks even?
James Miller
I hope they aren't pushing another Link/Zelda romance here. That was already annoying in Skyward Sword and Hyrule Warriors.
Luke Edwards
I hope they do push it instead, I want to protect those eyebrows. Besides, I don't think there was real romance in HW. It was all Cia's jealousy towards Zelda.
Andrew Harris
I couldn't tell you. There are just far to many things that contradict it being before and after OoT. We also have a extremely Rusted Master Sword that's broken into pieces, we've had Master Swords before that were left in the stone for hundreds of years to be pulled and still be in ok condition.
If you notice in the newest Trailer, Zelda is placing a fairly fresh looking Master Sword in the cutscene but we ourselves seem to be using a fucking broken/rusty one. You'd only see that kinda bullshit in the Declining Era
This looks more and more like a merging or an alternate universe timeline a "What if" as it were
Andrew Adams
They were implying that Link and Zelda always meet and fall in love. Which is horseshit since he clearly abandoned Zelda in the child timeline to find Navi and in Twilight Princess he clearly was closer to Midna and Ilia.
I think it's more interesting if Link and Zelda are kept platonic. They can be close without wanting to fuck each other.
Ryder Reyes
I still have my doubt. Just think that, from a fan appeal standpoint, having split timelines gave Zelda half of its appeal in the recent years. Making the split timeline unified into one could be a very strange kind of asspull. I mean, Hyrule Warrirors did that, of course, but that's a spin off, not a mainline game.
Or, maybe, the Nayru part of tyhe Triforce, blue? But we had lore, now art, what could come next?
Joshua Harris
Well it could take place after Twilight Princess. Link kinda fucked off at the end and left the Master Sword behind. We don't know what happened after that. Probably searched for a way to plow some Twili pussy
Jayden Thompson
Maybe something concerning gameplay or secrets in the game. Or simply trivia about the development of the games.
Jack Phillips
Oh I know, and I agree with you. But for this game to be, between OoT and before WW seems a little far-fetched with all those different races there at once. Ganondorf's Great Flood seemed to have happened almost instantly with "magic" and what have you, or at least in a very fast event maybe over a few years. Drastic changes in race makeup and abilities don't happen over night and they only occur after something happens to help them adapt and that can take thousands of years (looking at it from a real life perspective here). For video games you can shorten that exponentially but if you say it was all done in a 100 years that would be silly as fuck.
So to me it looks like it might be yet another timeline, an alternate universe, or set far after Spirit Tracks. And I want to make something clear, right now, my only proof holding me back from the idea it being before WW is for the comments at the one Nintendo Tree House conference when they were demoing it, talking about resources and stating that "Red Sea Salt Rocks" appear everywhere in the game, or a large portion of the game. If this is the case, then that would imply this is sometime after Spirit Tracks and Wind Waker, after the flood receded
Cooper Baker
Well that they wear similar colored outfits that might be some weird sibling symbolism, and it's not like Link didn't have a sibling in the past. Would actually be pretty cool.
Kayden Richardson
No need for that, Link scored a far way better pussy.
Oliver Butler
I think after ST makes more sense. Except for the gerudo girl we saw. Unless she is sleeping in a stasis chamber too.
Sebastian Nguyen
I like Ilia and all but I still prefer him with Midna. The thought that he'd have to find another way into the Twilight Realm and all makes for a nice story that definitely give you an "earned" feeling at the end.
Evan Reyes
>inb4 Link dies at the end and that last scene where Zelda look at the castle is after everything is over.
Landon Rodriguez
This.
Jeremiah Wilson
Seems like there won't be a big difference between the two versions, except for the performance.
Eli Garcia
>Then the next installment is after this and you play as a female Link and you need to romance Zelda, Midna, Zora Princesses, and all the other girls Ill never get my yuri harem game
Sebastian Mitchell
>Link dies >BotW is the last game in the LoZ series
Jacob Ortiz
I just noticed there isn't the Amiibo icon on the Switch version.
Robert Young
Zelda's outfit makes me think she'll be playable at some point in the game. Like Ciri in Witcher 3, at least.
William Roberts
Zelda will be like SS Zelda, doing her own side quest while Link roams the land scorching everything. She's playable, on her own main quest line, in the New Game + mode after you finish the game as Link
