    Right, that too.

    You do realize that the United States and all of its infrastructure was made in ~250 years, right? BotW directly states that it takes place 10,000 years after the last game.

    Ashley's Thoughts on Zelda

    I wouldn’t say they were “from” Windwaker or Skyward Sword as much as they just sorta happened to be in those games. All three of the tropes in question are pretty standard open world fare, so I’d say that it’s more likely that BotW’s direction was more inspired by other open world games than...

    Ashley's Thoughts on Zelda

    There are definitely some shared elements, though they aren’t really implemented in the same way. The method of traversing the overworld, for instance, is vastly different by design. For the most part, the Great Sea is designed merely as a buffer between the game’s challenges. It’s pretty...

    Ashley's Thoughts on Zelda

    That’s the thing though. All games inherently “focus” on exploration. Zelda 1, BotW, OoT, SS, even the multiplayer games. It’s the methods they use to give that sense of exploration that sets games apart, and BotW goes out of its way to change the main method the series had used since Zelda 1...

    Now you mention in your next comment that you realize you might be wrong about some of the things you said, but I don’t know which is which so I’m just going to respond to all of them. Nope. Everything I said is true without glitches of any kind. The only caveat is that you can’t get the map...

    Yeah, but it also has peahats and stalfos, which were in OoT but not BotW. It’s a very surface level quality.

    Objectively untrue. Throughout the entirety of the adult portion of the game the only restrictions on dungeon order are that spirit goes after water and shadow goes after water and fire. Apart from that there’s no restriction. Meanwhile the majority of dungeons in Zelda 1 are locked behind...

    If you’re talking about the very first game titled “The Legend of Zelda” released on the NES, then yes.

    Yup, just like in Zelda 1

    BotW literally could not be any less similar to Zelda 1. OoT is far closer to being a “3D remake” of it than BotW is.

    Which Is Worse?

    I feel like you could at least fix the issues with the Downfall timeline by making a new game to explain just how it actually connects. With FSA it makes no sense in general.
