Love your videos keep up the good work
Finally someone pointed out the spiritual stones
@@keithirv Thanks!
That the first few notes in the Age of Calamity theme is the same notes that the Egg played in order to time travel! 🥚🎶
It's Hin-nox, not Hine-nox. That's how the Japanese pronounce words with more than one N
No wonder why Revali HATES Link just LOOK AT HOW HE'S HOLDING THE BOW!
Points the bow like a street gangsta. "I ain't playing around cu."
Something i've never heard anyone talk about: Mipha's theme main motif goes E and F (Mi and Fa in spanish (solfege)) while Sidon's is B and C (Si and Do). Just a cool little detail that passes above the heads of most english native speakers.
Oh I see, interesting!
And King Dorephan (Do Re Fa). Also, one of the merchants in Zora's Domain is named Cleff 😉
I knew that!
I’m actually Spanish and I knew that, I joked it with my friends lmao
What's with the Zora and music? They're almost intertwined at this point.
I don’t know if anyone’s mentioned this, but the way he draws the bow is a technique for fast shooting, you can find videos of it on the TH-cam. Archery - fast shooting Lza Privezenceva.
Oh interesting
So link is like fantasy anderson and Lza?
It also has a longer draw distance when aiming the bow horizontally. If your knuckles face downward on the draw hand during horizontal aiming, your range of motion is much more limited.
The reason he draws the bow like that is because he's holding it perpendicular to his body, whereas in other games he holds it parallel. If you try and make the drawing motion yourself, you'll realize it's much easier to draw palm facing "out" from this position.
6:37 "...And create the skeletal structure of a Heenox." _Background_ "Hinox?"
LOL
It also happens at 6:08 😂😂
Super well known secret: The Spiral peninsula in North-Eastern Hyrule is a real place in Utah: the spiral jetty
I've actually talked about that before!
Didn’t know that! Thanks!
Wait that's in Utah? So close to home and I didn't know. Huh
@@mckaygoodman6514 Same! I live in Utah and gave never heard of the spiral jetty
Had to do a project on that in art class during college. it was such a nice surprise to see it when playing the game
I think I’ve seen it suggested that he draws his bow like a Zora would, to avoid find getting in the way? Which makes some sort of sense if he grew up frequently visiting the domain.
Interesting. I'll need to look more into that myself!
Hannah Ward came here to say that! I read it in a fanfiction.
Do you mean fins? It hardly makes a difference. The fins are just barely below the elbow. With either rotation of the wrist it's not in the way.
Not at all. This is the field archery technique. It's very common during field/combat archery because of the faster release. Nothing to do with Zora.
The pattern of the Kokiri's Emerald is referenced on the forest dwellers shield
Makes sense, but it is more clearly represented on Revalis breast plate, and along with his emerald beads, it is a more precise match
That and pretty much any zonai architecture
Even after 3 or 4 years it still has secrets
Y U P
Not really for me anyway
Well everything listed here was found out in the first couple months into the games release
Yeahhh 🤔
For bow mechanics, and history, it's helpful to check out Shadiversity. The reverse hand drawing is a real thing.
That guy is fabulous
It's the Mongolian draw. Or thumb draw.
@@jonathana1572 I forgot the names of the technique. Thank you. I do know that some speed shooters use it today.
@@RyuuKageDesu its a smoother release needing only the thumb to loose the arrow however it requires a special thumb ring as to not break the thumb because all the stresses it puts on the joint.
How it applies to speed shooting I do not know.
@@RyuuKageDesu here a video from Skallagrim from 5 years ago trying the thumb draw
th-cam.com/video/rzVe0cJRZ68/w-d-xo.html
ITS THE QUIET BACKGROUND CORRECTION OF HINOX FOR ME.
"HE-NOX"
Whispers:
"high-nox?"
LOL
The way you spelt it makes it seem like a high hinox (heenox?)
@@-Hamza Yes exactly like that! lol
i say heenix for some reason
@@NagantHunt haha the way we associate things.
In the secret ending of breath of the wild how does Zelda and Link have their same horses from 100 years ago
That is a good question...
Link caught the Royal descendant and Zelda summoned the descendent of Link’s horse to fight Ganon, and gave them each other as wedding presents.
@@SchneeflockeMonsoon If only the wedding part was canon lol
You can catch both of them ingame.
how is anyone alive 100 years later? too many characters are alive for a century in a lifestyle that would dictate a life expectancy of 50-60 at most. plus you can catch the "descendant" of zelda's horse.
I’m not sure if this has been mentioned yet but there is a swamp called the bottomless swamp which has what looks like dragon skull which may reference volvagia
Oh interesting 👀
That sounds a bit odd taking into account Volvagia is synonymous with Death Mountain.
Zeltik and Nintendo black crisis already pointed this in a collaboration video of them. This swamp is near to hila rao shrine where that flower quest is present where you had to reach that shrine without trampling any flower.
There's more than one.
@@quinnsinclair7028 where?
3:57 I’m not a doctor but, the way link pulls the bow looks like it would hurt alot
Yea
yup
So the reason you may draw the bow like that is because its simply faster. In real life the bows strength would be significantly less so it doesnt cause great strain on the archer but seeing how strong link is, it really shouldnt be a problem for him. Drawing the bow that way helps him fight faster.
I use bows this way IRL, it really isn't that different tbh, it works just fine
Yea
About the bow, I always thought it was a thing that had to do with the Shrine of Resurrection. I feel as if not only he lost his memory, but feel as if it reverted his fighting instincts back to their primitive state. That could very well be why he holds the bow that way. Not only that but with the his other weapons, I feel as if they have a bit more of a primitive nature behind each of his movements. Just a thought :^)
I wouldn't consider the one about Mipha and Daruk an Easter egg since those are just the icons for the Zora and Gorons.
Perhaps yeah
Yeah they aren’t symbols for the gemstones, rather the gemstones are references to the symbols of each race.
@@HyruleGamer compare zonai swirl with Kokiri/Faron symbol.
@@Nerukenshi1233, Or the Stamina Vessel.
@@spiderdude2099 I'd say it's a bit of both. The symbols started out as simply being the spiritual stones, but after enough time, they came to be tied to the races that held them.
About the bow thing : is it possible it's a way to show Link has lost his experience ? He probably forgot everything about holding a bow, I assume
Yes!
No....just, no. This is a common technique used by field archers. /facepalm
@@jenniferchough Ah yeah, sorry, that's obvious knowledge I definitely knew, silly me
I commented this on the community post like last week or something, but it was a really long theory, so if you want the entire thing go to that community post. So the theory is about the material used in ancient sheikah structures, and how they might have gotten the material from the canyon sorrounding hyrule to the north/west. As I said, I posted a really long comment about this at the community post, so go there to see the entire theory.
Oh interesting. I will have to go look for that :D
As someone with experience with a bow, I winced when I saw Link drawing his bow like that
Lol
You really shouldn't. It's the way we draw in field archery. I've been doing this for 14 years and it's the way we pull from the quiver, knock, and release in one smooth movement with no hand adjustment. In field/combat archery, speed is key.
@@jenniferchough Ah, it's just that it's not how I have ever drawn a bow and would cause a lot of discomfort for me personally.
@@cody8510 - understandable, but it really doesn't once you start doing it, just like any movement adaptation and muscle memory. it's not much different than the regular mediterranean draw technique, just a few changes in muscles used.
@@jenniferchough Thats fair
3:13 The only explanation I can think of is that this is how you draw a compound bow (some people do palm down, but palm out is very common for this type of bow). The problem is that Link is clearly not using a compound bow.
Oh interesting
Every time he says “hinox” as “hee-nox” you can also hear a very quiet “high-nox” in the background - check out 6:39 for an example
Great now I won't see Link drawing the bow ever again
h a
Gee... where in breath of the wild could we *possibly* find a *spiral?!*
H A
What about the Zonai spiral? I know it's not the same but Zonai magic or spirit energy is..well greenish
@@xiao9736 that’s the joke
@@JamesonMcLeod I'm aware
@@xiao9736 good
I love these types of videos
Glad to hear that :)
The Melody that would become Zelda's Lullaby first apperared in A Link to the past.
Pretty well known but my favorite detail is that the Lon Lon Ranch theme is played under the stables theme. I think the cute little music references they make in the Zelda games are so awesome and a great attention to detail.
A look at all the ancient Gerudo ruins would be really interesting! Especially since the ancient Zonai and Hylian ruins get more of the spotlight
*screaming* NUMBER FOUR?! FIVE?! I LIVE UNDER A ROCK AND EVEN I CANT KEEP UP ON THE UNDER A ROCK EVENTS THAT CONSUME MY LIFE
😮
I too live under a rock. You could almost say.... I live under a mountain....
The notes on the Sanctum are positioned in a way that we can’t really tell if it’s Zelda's Lullaby or the Ballad of the Goddess. Both songs are basically the same, but backwards versions of each other. Both the first and second notes seem to be on the same line so it could be either one. I guess that’s intentional, but the whole design is actually the same one seen in the Gate of Time from Skyward Sword so it would make more sense for it to reference the song in that game.
For one, I know that Zeltik has made a few videos on the same subject, with the theme of the Old Man being a remixed version of King Daphnes Nohanssen of Hyrule.
Holding R while sheild surfing allows you to make a sharp turn
Damn nice
@@HyruleGamer woah
I didn’t know that
This needs to be talked about more! Thx for reminding me ab it.
Really? Did not know that
HG: says “interweb“
Me: did he just reference the discord?
🤣
Same tho
LOL
At one point he is just gonna be like "sending love to the family" or something LOL
@@mxhyrule lol yeah I don't doubt it XD
As a bow hunter for many years I actually draw with my hand the way link does. it's actually pretty common
Im not gonna lie I am addicted to these videos
Thanks haha
Yeah same lol
Speaking of the monster cake, there's a reference to spirit tracks. in the description the recipe book gives, it says that monster cake is "the chancellor's favorite!" Referencing chancellor Cole from spirit tracks.
Weird that nintendo is actually acknowledging that the DS zelda games exist
A secret of Botw you might have missed!
Did you know that the title could be a subtle reference to one of the oldest games made by nintendo, named The Legend Of Zelda?
Pffff no way!
Nuh-uh. Obviously it’s referencing their older title, The Adventure of Link.
I don't remember where it was, but I remember watching a video that talked about different ways to draw a bow. The one Link is using has several disadvantages, but it was used at times because you can fire faster using that method. The normal method has you nocking the arrow on the left side of the boys and then shifting your hand around to the right. This method skips that step in exchange for being a bit more awkward.
Oh really? Interesting
I love it that whenever you say hinox, (hee-nox) I can quietly hear you saying in the background "hinox?" (high-nox)
I love Zelda!
So do I!
woah me too
@@HyruleGamer we’re like a whole family of [Zelda] nerds!
Thx for that!!!
Wait my princess, the game or me
The absence of emeralds in Breath of the Wild intrigued me from the get-go. When I came across sapphires and rubys I was sure I would find some emeralds too because, you know, that’s the holy trinity of precious stones in Zelda lore. My point is: WHAT HAVE THE ZONAI DONE WITH ALL THE EMERALDS?
ZONAI 🤣
What if Zonai were made of emeralds?
This is actually a very good question, the distinct lack of emeralds is surprising, we have
Ruby - Goron
Zora - Sapphire
Topaz - Gerudo?
Luminous - Zonai
Opal - Rito
Amber - that one blade of grass near death mountain.
Diamond - Hylian
Emerald would fit koroks of course but where does Amber actually go? Shiekah?
@@acamera367 never thought about the stones being connect to each race, besides the obvious ones (ruby, sapphire and emerald). I always imagined the Zonai are connected to the Deku Tree and the koroks in some way. The swirl of the Zonai reminds me of the Koriki emblem, something that weirdly I have heard a lot of people talk about. Plus the region they’ve supposedly lived is in the Faron province where the Kokiri Forest could’ve been based on the geography of Hyrule during Ocarina of Time.
@@mrlborges huh, that's absolutely true actually, admittedly I think amethyst could be a safe inclusion for a sheikah gem but.. we never really saw any super important Amethyst.
Now Luminous is a very strong possibility for Sheikah if it isn't More connected to Zonai. Since I believe each race has a gemstone they value much more than what one can sell it for.
This isn’t something really lore wise but something I found funny and interesting. I just noticed it today by playing and everybody probably knows.
But I was messing around with some bokoblins and a moblin with a meteor rod around some dry grassy area in Tabantha. Obviously I was setting the grass on fire trying to kill the enemies. But I noticed when the moblin was right in the middle of the fire and burning, it would literally jump into the air from both feet and try to land on some area that wasn’t on fire!
Maybe it was just me who didn’t notice that till now.
Something I've been noticing more and more, that always gives me a chuckle, is how you put audio of you saying an alternate pronunciation with a questioning tone in the background whenever you are unsure of whether something should be a long or short "i" sound lol.
Tuis reminds me of ten tiny details you may have missed in skyrim.
Oh cool!
Epicnate is finally back, too!
The kokiri emerald's swirl design is on Revali's chest armor. You can see it fairly clearly at 8:00.
Don't quote me on this but it seems like the way link is firing the bow in this game may be based on the "Mongolian draw" technique of bow shooting. IDK lol. It's probably just artistic liberty tho since it looks cool. 🤷
Could be but I can't say I found that when looking
@@HyruleGamer lol I just searched "why does link shoot with his hand backwards in botw" and some stuff came up about Mongolian draw and I was like hmmmmmmm lol. Seriously tho IDK I'm just guessing at possible reasons. I assume it was ultimately just an artistic liberty type thing or a mistake tho. IDK lol
@@HyruleGamer don't mind me I'm just talking out my ass over here lol
@@HyruleGamer The James Cameron Avatar film used the same reversed hand draw, supposedly to look more alien. Maybe they added it just for Link to be cool/different? There doesn't seem to be much historical basis for it, but seems various archers have experiemented with it, feasible, but not really ideal technique overall
I use bows this way IRL, it is no less effective than normal draw and in my case is far more accurate, but that may be just me
The Forest Dweller's weapons and shield feature a pretty swirly design. I thought it was meant to be a reference to the Kokiri Emerald.
You should make a video speculating new areas in the breath of the wild sequel! Wether that be rebuilt towns, castle town, hyrule underground, or even a new province to the west! I would love that video 💖
I think i have but I'd be happy to do another :D
Interesting bit of info on the bow draw. It is a style of drawing a bow called the palm-out draw. Alot of competitive compound bow shooters draw this way. Another reason to use this draw style is if your using a left handed bow in your right hand, and as we all know link is left handed in most of the games. This might be a little reference to that. So maybe all the bows you find in game are left handed bows and he is having to compensate for that.
Revali's chest plate/armor thingy has swirly designs that seem reminiscent of Medli's harp
6:47 it may be just me theorising too much, but maybe the stal enemies were supposed to be seen at both the night and the day, but only hostile at night, and maybe you could just find a stal enemy just walking around, maybe during the day they would be seen crafting the dragonbone weapons they use or something like that, but that's a long shot
Maybe yeah! That would make a lot of sense actually :)
It's quite common for some Archers to shoot with the palm facing outwards; it's supposed to help slightly with AIM when you draw back the bow. So it's pretty cool to see that.
Not all Archers shoot like this though, just personal preference. :)
As someone who did archery competitively for a few years and may or may not get back into it: the way Link draws that bow brings me physical pain. Like why. Just why. My shoulder and mind are in pain. Sweet Hylia LINK WHERE DID YOU LEARN TO SHOOT?!
Link's hand position while drawing the bow is actually very common in a lot of Asian and Middle Eastern archery.
In 7:59 you can also see that Revali has the swirl symbol of Link's belt from the Wind Waker
Zelda’s lullabye is also integrated into a portion of the music in the castle! Personally, that really made me smile when I first heard those few notes. Also the closest to the Kokiri symbol I’ve seen is on the 7 heroines! One of their symbols looks like a comma. I don’t think it’s connected tho as their symbols mostly look like math symbols or punctuation marks.
YES! I noticed that :)
I tend to see that sword on the great plateau to be a reference to Excalibur. Its found pretty much in a lake wish could symbolize the lady of the lake.
Small secret: he did the masked nintendo bandit double pronunciation of hinox, which is awesome and hilarious, such a great community.
loved the "hee-nox"/"high-nox"? joke. :-)
Thanks haha
Why is Zelda lore surfacing this quarantine lmaoo. I love your vids HG keep it up!
Great, now I'll always be triggered as soon as Link draws a bow XD
Really appreciated that the thumbnail was the first thing you covered!
Yup
These were more along the lines of just very obvious details in Breath of the Wild, except for Zelda's Lullaby hidden in Hyrule Castle, which was a pretty cool find
The spiritual stone of water is also hanging on the back of the zora helm equipped by link
Regarding the Kokiri Emerald. It is On Revali
... the beads in his braids are the green color, and the swirl pattern with the branch coming off are on his breast plate, front and back.... hard to notice as his scarf obscures them, but can be seen in a few scenes
As someone who has been doing archery for 6 years now it pains me every time to see Link draw a bow. I'm more familiar with the western archery style but as much as I know the way Link draws is nothing that is a particular style, I could be wrong though.
Understandable
Why does it pain you? The way Link is using his bow is common in field archery draw, where the arrow is seamlessly pulled from the quiver, knocked, and released with no hand position adjustment. This is my hobby and it's what I've been taught to do for the past 14 years. In field archery, speed is key.
@@jenniferchough I've never been taught to shoot that way, thats all I can say. I've both been shooting with a thumb ring and without, without adjusting as well. Maybe it's a preference of my teachers and to be fair, I have ever only been taught with natural material bows (I have no idea if that's the right term in english) and not compound bows or sport bows.
0:21 that blue bokoblin charging a the camera, lol.
@1:48
I believe that the throne room also mentions or references the Prince in blue (from you're first video), I am not 100% sure about it but I remember a video that was solely about the prince in blue.
I think the Kokiri Emerald somewhat resembles the Stamina Vessels that you trade for spirit orbs
I draw palm out sometimes depending on the weight of the bow
Link from Botw is just flexin’ his strength when using the bow
Someone posts a pic of a fancy plate of sushi.
Me here with my microwaved hot pocket...
Lol
The bow thing is an actual bow drawing technique. It's supposed to allow for a faster release. Though typically the bow is held level rather than angled. Then again, bows are usually held upright but Zelda has a weird obsession with holding them at angles.
I have a mini theory! tingle was found again for doing something and was put into jail, hence why we can find some of his outfit in the expansion pack.
stalnox: I'm alive but I'm dead
I loved the "Hinox?" whispers 😂
Haha
That hinox with hinox whisper kills me lol.
I had to check after you mentioned it, but Link's archer amiibo also has his palm outward. Don't know how I never noticed, guessed I was too distracted that there was no bow string.
Hmmmm
Link is an over-achiever. No pain, no gain! Twist that wrist! Pull that muscle, SAVE HYRULE
I know your favourite TLoZ is TP, but isn't it beautiful that TP's soundtrack is soooo fitting in Zelda videos. Nostalgia hits me every time. Thank you for your videos man. Have a nice day :)
Ikr!
I felt personally called out at 0:05
XD
Omg Joe 😂😂
It happens 😅
I think the spiral symbol seen in the Zonai ruins around Hyrule in BOTW might be a reference to the Kokiri emerald. Since the Zonai symbol even has the little tick at the end of the spiral.
I never noticed until now but King Dorephan makes a reference to The Faces of Evil by calling his son “My boy”, he even laughs at it.
The zelda’s lullaby shrine design, is also the pattern on the skyward sword gate of time before it’s opened.
The Metal frame with Zelda's lullabye on it is actually the symbol of the door of time from Skyward Sword! Never knew about the song on it tho
I thought this was an old video till I saw 32 comments, well guess I'm early.
Welcome in!
The kokiri emerald is referenced. It's the spiral symbol of the zonai. You can also see the symbol in wind waker.
The kokiri symbol can be founded on Lurelian Village, just in the shield hanging on the ship shaped houses.
That is ACTUALLY the symbol of the Zonai! If you look closely the kokoriki symbol does NOT have a tick at the end of the swirl BUT the Zonai symbol does SO does that mean the people at lurelilan village are decedents of the Zonai?
Finally someone else has noticed that Link drew the bow with his hand backwards! That was one of the first things I noticed!!!
About the kokiri emerald, the zonai swirl kind of looks like it, or could be a reference to it, but that’s my best guess.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
That bow draw is *uncommon* but it *is not a mistake*.
It's usually used to draw the arrow closer to the eye.
Pointing out how Link uses his bow has brought eternal pain onto me
H a
@@HyruleGamer - okay, i think you need to go on record as to blowing this whole "Link is drawing his bow wrong!!!" thing because look at all the people you have misinformed and are nowmaking comments about how they never noticed how bad it is. Please retract. I don't think I can go down the entire comment section and correct everyone on their now warped view on the field archery draw.
3:30 the 100 year sleep made him forget how to hold a bow
I've noticed Link drawing with his palm facing outward, but I've also seen characters in movies do that too (Legolas, for example). I assumed it was a cultural/military thing. What's weirder to me (and I'm surprised there wasn't a mention of this in the video) is that he appears to hook all 4 of his fingers around the string instead of only 3.
You have an amazing eye for detail! Thanks for sharing all of these neat points, especially regarding archery.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
i think link draws the bow weird is because he holds the bow weird. generally youd hold a bow mostly vertical with a slight tilt inwards and draw across your chest from there, but link holds the bow down lifting it up mostly horizontal while drawing the string meaning that having the hand on the other side of the string would actually have the palm facing upwards as apposed to how he does it here with the palm down which feels more natural like how you would pull the string to start a push mower
Guys, I'm not sure, but I think this guy loves us... (we love you too)
:)
The forest gem belonged to the Great Deku tree and his forest spirit. So if the insignia exist in BotW it would be in the lost woods and korok forest.
There is a small manga where the artist drew Link shooting exactly like that, when criticized about it. He explain that it was a the way some ancient Asian tribes used to do it.
I've never noticed the way he draws the bow before... But now I will never be able to unsee it. You included that just so you wouldn't have to suffer alone with that, didn't you? :p
Joking aside, I really like these videos. As much time as I have put into BOTW, it's cool to see that things that I have missed. Thank you for your hard work in making these!
