the LEGEND of zelda

[Nyerp]

IT MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING SENSE

NOW WE HAVE TO CONSIDER THAT EVERY GAME HAS A TIMELINE SPLIT WHERE LINK DOESN'T DEFEAT THE ENEMY HUUURRRR WHAT THE FUCK

FUCK YOU ZELDA FANTARDS AND NINTENDO

[Daddy]

What is the point of a third timeline?

well no it doesn't really make sense because the games have literally nothing to indicate any sort of "link failed" timeline

alright but where are you getting this "link failed" nonsense from

The first, which we'll call Timeline A, assumes Link actually fails to stop Ganon.

oh yeah i didn't read the article at all but i saw this timeline on a different page

anyway, the way i understand it is that one timeline is the child link timeline after he's sent back to his childhood, another is the adult link timeline, and the last one is the timeline where ganon takes control of everything while link is asleep for 7 years or something lol

No it's not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

could somebody please explain to me what, assuming the split timeline theory is canon, would stop link from simply defeating ganon again and having the exact cycle repeat infinitely after zelda sent link back to the past after defeating him the first time*

[spoiler=*]not that there could be a real "first time" in such a paradox[/spoiler]

Nintendo's timeline is worse than any "fan" timeline I've ever seen.

For fuck's sake.

uh nothing but why would he do that??????!?!??!

and how wouldn't there be a first time??!?!?!??

[Kalahari Inkantation]

if ganon is still a threat as a result of zelda reversing time, why wouldn't link just defeat him again

unless the reason he is no longer a threat is that he's sealed in that realm or whatever which i suppose might not be affected by time or something

in either case, why would the timeline split at all

it doesn't make any sense whatsoever for link to just wander off to termina if ganon is still a threat

[don't let's]

And this is how Ocarina of Time ruined the Zelda series beyond repair.

...what

the entire reason zelda sends link back in time is so that he and li'l zelda can prevent ganon from usurping the throne and fucking shit up

then it's seen in twilight princess that he's sealed in the twilight realm as a result of this and blah blah blah

the timeline splits because they create a new series of events that is completely different from what leads up to the final battle of oot...?
