Cool 3D map
Cathal Darcy
It would be awesome to integrate the 3D map to look for different approaches to the mountainous areas
@@jlw35cudvm yea that would be awesome
@@jlw35cudvm The topographical lines help with that in the original game
Tarrey town's theme is so freaking good.
Which is why I now fear for Hudson's life and legacy
it was worth it finishing the quest honestly
so is the lost woods theme.
"I'm tired of BotW2 speculation"
*Watches BotW2 speculation videos less than 15 minutes after they are uploaded*
*Happens again on a different day*
I don't think I'm hyped you guys
I dont feel hyped either
@@frosty_bear2349 You probably have at least 5 years to get hyped, because that's probably how long it's going to take for Nintendo to release it.
[Oooooo ok then
@@elizabethsullivan7176 I’ll laugh if it releases next year
The 3D map, did you make it? It looks AWSOME 😮🤯
Yep, our editor Donnie made it after finding data on the topography of Hyrule and then made the necessary adjustments in Blender.
@@commonwealthrealm Cool!!
@EBI Games Nope It's Gerudo, also the green light is supposed to be the light of the spirits according to many theorists and based on the glowing lights around the champions and the kind in BotW.
*king not kind
@@cashwin45 i think it is the zonai, but the energy takes the language of whoever it is sealing (or the zonai adapted the gerudo language)
I looked forward to every journey to Tarry Town, I love the peaceful vibes and music.
Makes me smile everytime :)
Tarrey town and hateno village music is amazing! I just stand there listening to music ignoring the task at hand.
Great video! I have a theory for you guys that might explain the hand. In twilight princess the master sword is stabbed into gandodorfs chest. In breath of the wild the master sword seems to have been weakened. Could it be that the zonai took power from the master sword to seal Gannon? It would explain why link wasn’t trapped in time for grabbing the master sword at a young age like in ocarina of time.
That’s actually a really good theory.
Notice how the malice coming out of Gannondorf is coming out of his chest where the wound from TP would be.
In two of the timelines, the master sword is stabbed into ganondorf to permanently seal him (WW, TP)
Nice theory
Holy crap I never even thought about that before! Why was OOT Link treated so differently to BOTW Link? Wind was young but not as young when he found the Master Sword, and he was the one to actively bring it to life out of necessity so it makes sense. But OOT had the decision made that even with everything going to hell in a hand basket the world could wait a few years so that the hero could physically grow, while in BOTW the master sword apparently decided it was fine for the kid to be trained as a knight from that moment on until the Calamity erupted?? I have many questions!
I vote lanayru.
Cool video, interesting speculation, and the thought of the town we worked so hard to build crumbling before a new ancient threat is motivation enough to eliminate Gannondorf as quick as possible.
This is one my favorite games ever. Every time I play it, I find something new I never found before in my previous play throughs. That to me is what makes this game truly special. Especially finding little things that are so clever. I can’t wait for the second game..
Ooo! I really love Lanayru! All those ruins along the promenade are simply beautiful.
THANK YOU FOR RECOMMENDING ZELTIK'S AKKALA VIDEO
I want so badly for the Citadel to be a dungeon!
Joshua Hernandez that would be awesome!
It could be maybe that’s where the corps is
Me too. I when I'm in the Akkala Tower, I feel I'm in a dungeon.
Ahhhh, Akkala, my favorite region.
Yeah, that 3d map was awesome!
my favorite region is the hebra region because of the weather challenges.
My favorite is the Kakariko area and the Hateno area.
The Zonai Symbol is the same as the Sealed Grounds spiral...which actually could easily become the Akkala Peninsula.
If you rotate the Surface Map from SS, it roughly matches Akkala Region (with the Lanayru Sand Sea instead becoming the Akkala Sea). Which...for “Zelda Geography”? That’s almost 1:1 (since reoccurring landmarks literally float all over the place in ways that can’t be explained away by centuries and millennia. The Temple of Time/Master Sword pedestal/Lost Woods are repeat offenders.)
Which...considering BotW borrows perhaps the heaviest from SS...
Perhaps the “hand seal” is actually Ghirahim manipulating a reversed engineered seal to seal away Ganondorf’s soul, but revive Demise via condensing the Malice? Ghirahim already has the knowledge of Demise’s original seal, especially since his sole purpose was...reviving his master. (And heck. We already have Fi more or less returned via the “sword spirit” including using Fi’s sfx to prove that Link was still alive...and the Malice did WAY more damage than a Ganon(dorf) EVER has. Which, considering the optional One Hit Obliterator looks roughly like Someone’s Tridant...
It’s highly possible that 10k years ago Ghirahim first murdered that era’s Hero, then ripped away some of that Ganondorf’s Malice into creating Calamity. With Link dead, the Sheikah developed the OHO for Ganondorf to wield, specifically tailoring it to him since no one could wield the Master Sword. Together with that era’s Zelda, the Divine Beasts, and Guardians, Ganondorf destroys the Calamity...only they discover that it was only Malice, and the threat could come again.
Ghirahim then frames Ganondorf as the cause of Hyrule’s recent misfortune. Ganondorf’s former allies then betray him, sealing his body and soul underneath what’s probably Hyrule Castle, despite his heroism for both his people and the other hyrulians. Ghirahim then manipulates the Sheikah into developing technology that would stripmine Ganondorf’s Soul as a “clean, sustainable energy source”. (The true purpose being to destroy Ganondorf’s/Groose’s soul, leaving only Demise and his Malice.) However, Ghirahim then reinacts his revenge against the Sheikah for their part in Demise’s defeats by spreading rumors that once Ganondorf’s Soul is gone, they’ll turn on the citizens to fuel their technology next. The Sheikah are forced to abandon their technology, but by then it’s too late-the damage has been done (although they’re a-ok with continuing to use Ganon-Fuel until they ultimately forget that he’s the fuel source.)
For the next 10k years, Ganondorf’s soul is consumed. During that time Ghirahim continues to prepare a ritual that will use the harvested Malice to ressurect Demise while the mortal Ganondorf’s body&soul remains pinned down by the reworked seal. Right around the birth of Zelda, Ghirahim’s plans are finally nearly ready. However, the birth of a new Spirit Maiden threatens to ruin everything.
Ghirahim then poses as the fortune teller, prophesising Calamity Ganon’s near return...but then advises the King dig up the old Sheikah weaponry and put the Spirit Maiden under intense and unprecedented training the second she can walk. However, this was no kindness-the real reason was to destroy Zelda’s soul and confidence by having her begin too early and thus unable to ever access her powers (and keep Hylia’s descendent from discovering the fatal flaw in the Beasts and Guardians that Ghirahim himself planned to exploit.)
...which...it *almost* worked: Zelda’s confidence is shattered, believing she’s powerless to access her Diving Gift and it’s the only worth she has...when in reality she was set up to fail by being placed on the path much too early and in a way that was inorganic. (Remember the Silent Princess.) The Hero is defeated and all-but dead, his sealing sword badly damaged and forces to retire while it awaits its master’s return. (Much like Ghirahim waits for Demise.) The Guardians and Beasts are overwealmed by the Malice Ghirahim releases on them, further tarnishing the Sheikah’s legacy and allowing hoards of monsters to “reclaim” the ruined lands of Hyrule.
And despite Zelda’s Powers surfacing at the 11th Hour and containing *most* of the Malice to the ruins of Hyrule Castle...enough Malice still infects the machines and plagues the land.
Oh...and Demise is *almost* revived. Only that pesky Hero causes Demise to emerge from his cocoon too early the second the Spirit Maiden’s powers begin to fatigue. Then the Spirit Maiden obliterated the Calamity after the Hero bought her a moment’s recovery.
But Ghirahim still has the Source.
When Zelda and Link investigate for the Source and discover the Hand Seal syphoning away Ganondorf’s Soul and bleeding Pure Malice from the wound, Ghirahim strikes again. Only this time he releases ALL of the Malice at once, and both the Hand and Malice in tandem attempt to strike Link.
Ganondorf’s Corpse awakening as a result is the least of Ghirahim’s concerns. What can one, mummified mortal do? And if the Three infight like they had for Millenia? All the better for Ghirahim while he finishes restoring Demise to his former self.
Ghirahim is back, after quite possibly one million years.
He actually teams up with Ganondorf, as it's all that's really left of demise, and they have the same goal "take over hyrule." Ghirahim could have weakened or changed the zonai seal so that ganon could create the calamity. They could have been working together for quite some time, and the calamity could have been the result of Ghirahim possibly causing master khoga to create the yiga clan (look at their colors, it almost perfectly matches Ghirahim's cloak) impersonating a fortune teller to get the sheikah tech where ganon could corrupt it, quite probably killing zelda's mom for the reasons you discussed. If you look at my earlier evidence, either nintendo was taking some inspiration from their earlier character, or else he is almost certainly behind the yiga. I mean a scythe is a lot like a cutlass, and a "Demon Carver" Ghirahim is a demon lord, so... plus it's also just a disc with pointy stuff on it and what was Ghirahim's main attack in the first battle against him at skyview temple? throwing pointy stuff (throwing knives) at you. I admit this last one is kind of a stretch, but the yiga blademasters' swords have some pretty magical attacks behind them. What if they were all made by ghirahim? plus the red and white color scheme still checks out here.
What if each of the three lomei labyrinths represented a part of the triforce, like the springs of courage, power, and wisdom?
Because there are three of them ?
Lolin Taylor Pretty sure there's only 3 to give the entire barbarian set lol, but 3 is a reoccuring number in zelda it isn't always that special or represent the triforce
I would agree if one of the labriths had dragons theme, another with an owl then a boar. But thats not the case so Im just sticking with the idea that it's only to get each barbarian armor
the opening animation of the map is very cool. Keep up the good work!
The swirl. I always thought it was a reference to the deku swirl lol like the one on links shield in oot?
Out of everything in this whole video,im commenting about the 3D map cuz it just looks so amazing and flawless lol
That intro at the beginning of the video almost scared the crap out of me, it looks so good. I also love the 3D map of the region at the beginning of the video too, I'm actually really impressed.
This theory has got me goin'. MY BODY IS READY.
my body is Regi.
Clicked as fast as I could
Terry Being destroyed after all the work that we put into it... damn that is so likely to happen
it be cool if botw2 had a 3d map that was more smooth
nah, i like the 2D Map.
@max_rn imagine if you could TURN it 3D or 2D :D
They’ll definitely improve it somehow, I’m thrilled 🤩
They made some 3d maps, but just for the divine beasts and Hyrule Castle. Probably the team thought it would be enough
like skyrim
How did you do that 3D map?
Plus it would be really cool if they made a dlc where you could fight in battles from botw’s history.
Donnie, our editor did it in Blender.
Commonwealth Realm that’s pretty cool!
You're good at making lore and theories vids! Congrats!
Over what period of time do the pre-BotW games take place? I mean could the Zonai be the race from before the goddess raised Skyloft?
We have no idea as botw's only official timeline placement is that its at the end of all the timelines but we have no idea it has been since any previous games
I always thought that the Zonai were Lizalfos.
2 years later, I just found out 1) the shape of rist peninsula resembles a Zonai swirl and 2) the Hebra peak has a circular hole.
Man, I got to re-play Botw again.....
I've played it 5 times now. I'm completely addicted.
The zonai=the maya
The legend of Zelda breath of Mexico
We need a Mexican themed town in Zelda.
Anibal Osbaldo a fkn Tepito town?
@@joeysludge4041 Maybe a town, a pueblo,and Hospicio Cabañas. 🇲🇽
@@joeysludge4041 Sure.
I'd love to see a Lanayru video since I've heard a lot about the Gerudo.
I feel like both regions have tons of hidden secrets, but I would love to hear more about the gerudo region first!
Lanayru!!!
Obviously gerudo will be really important with Ganondorf, so let's hold off and let you develop that more
I would like to learn more about the fish people of wisdom.
Hudson and Rhonson give birth to the next ganon. Think about it. It’s been a hundred years since the last calamity and a Gerudo voe is born every one hundred years. The ganon in the trailer is old and mummified and will soon be reincarnated.
@@jacobclark2409 nah dude. The voe birth cycle is currently broken. The calamity of 100 years ago couldn't have been caused by that generation's male birth. Urbosa says "legends say you were once a gerudo." If that happened in her life time, she would remember it.
Nah, I think when they mummified Ganondorf, they broke the male cycle since the last born male never died. Can't reincarnate if you're still kicking.
The spiral peninsula is an Easter egg. It is the tail of a hidden Lizalfos on the map. The spiral is its tail, its head is near Skull Lake
I wish we could aid a new hyrulian army in the next final battle
Please!!!!
"Don't ever stop making ZELDA content
I think the Zonai did not disappear, they took Ganondorf’s body and maybe fled underground and keep him sealed. It could be that there are not many left similar to the Sheikah.
I am really hoping that they'll make restoration one of the themes in botw2. Not only will it be a nice contrast to the darker themes, it would also be interesting to see civilisation expand again (like in zeltik's video on botw2 settlements) with perhaps a new great plateau capital (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE) and other towns, like perhaps tarrey town, expanding and being rebuilt. I'd love to see bigger, bustling settlements, with minigames to play and citizens to interact with, as well as a more urban landscape to explore.
If this was A show on Netflix, I'd watch it. I love your editing!
Fun Fact: Tarrey Town, in the Korean version, is '시자기 마을' [Sijagi maeul] which pronunciation is similar to '시작의 마을' [Sijagui Maeul], which means 'town of Beginnings'. Coincidence?
Do you think, that in Thyploo Ruins, the dark area near Korok Forest, could hide more secrets and hints?
Maybe the lost woods themselves hide a secret. we can never really explore it all.
This made me so hyped for BotW 2!!
(I‘m voting for the Gerudo region btw)
That would be crazy if the next game is similar to zelda a link between two worlds. Having to go to another world to kill Gannon to stop the calamity
Yes!
More BotW2 theories!
MOAR!!!
I also loved Akkala and Hebra the most.
Can I just say I love your intro for these videos. Scary as Fu $k
i love how we could watch the akkala citadel in action in age of calamity
Could the labyrinth island be the maze island of Zelda II?
im not the only one that bother by how thousands of years pass between each zelda and no technological advances occur right?
Well, it's explained that the Hylians were fine being farmers and those huge machines created by the Sheikah freaked the out of them.
Link's mater cycle is quite advanced for Hyrule, and the sheika slate and guardians are advanced tech.
@@Darkstar2630 His bike rune on nuclear fusion ...
He can fuel it with anything that is made of matter.
That's more advanced than modern times with our pity and dirty nuclear fission.
Under the swirl on the ground is one of 4 Hyrule Castles.
Oh I am so hyped for BoTW2
crazy in depth video, it was fun.
Link looks like a bad mofo in the thumbnail.
Thats why I love this channel
ooh ive already vote/commented for the two you specified but after youve done them id loo oo o o ove to hear some exposé magic on the hyrule ridge / tabantha area especially around thundra plateau !! thats some zonai lightning hokey if ever i saw it
You mentioned that all the races were present in Terry town, but they are not. Those Zonai descendants in the tropical town were never brought into the towns construction. I’m not sure if there is any reason for that, but what could it be?
What if the labrinth were defense bases that defended hyrule. Zonai were guardians of hyrule since their ruins are mostly near the borders
Yes ive been waiting for this!
That 3D map actually added ten years to my lifespan.
9:25 free temples and the free Lomei labyrinths
8:38 "The Sheeker"
SHEI-KAH
Sheikah
Who else loves the intro?
Woah, that map was cool as hell!
There really should be a history program on tv that is solely about Zelda and the Commonweath Realm could be the hosts of said program
I need the entire for the Zonai. They are interesting.
Yooo who drew the Link in your thumbnail?
DrawKindling on Twitter:)
So, why does the Citadel have Malice (i.e. Calamity Ganon "spooge") all over it? Well, let's just say that the remaining Hyrulian Army perished in the WORST AND MOST HUMILIATING way possible! Eww...gross.
Akala looks like the netherlands fliped over
I wouldn’t mind a little darker content in a Zelda game
The zonai symbol looks a lot like the forest gem from oot
Has anyone taken a look at the Korok puzzles and their possible connections to the Zonai? There are strange spiral like shapes on the decorative face of the metal cubes scattered around Hyrule. I couldn’t find any reason the Koroks were connected to these odd puzzles, why would tiny tree people make metal cube puzzles when anything they’re connected to is organic such as rocks, leaves, water, flowers, and trees? Not to mention I couldn’t fine these cubes in Creating a champion. It just seems odd. But what if they were Zonai? I mean, the Great Deku Tree and Koroks have been watching over the master sword, the sword connected to the hero of Hyrule, who possibly has a connection to the ancient Zonai tribe. They could totally be Sheikah but I don’t see the connection as strongly. They’re metal and can be moved with magnesis, that’s about the connection I’ve found to the Sheikah.
P.S. later I remembered the small metal ball, ball and chain puzzles that the Koroks have as well, but they’re simplistic and aren’t decorated in anyway besides being a rough round shape so I still stand by my idea that the metal cube puzzles were created by someone else, possibly the Zonai.
Wow 3D map is really cool 😎 very submersible
You have a full vid of the 3D map that you guys made? it looks great
I subscribe to the theory that Akkala is the region of Hyrule traversed in Adventure of Link.
Akkala is my favorite region, no question.
Whoaaaah that budget!!
Tonight after work, I play BOTW again. Haven't played it a second time since I bought it and beat it 99%, -stupid seeds quest.
I still don't understand why you want the Zonai to had coexist with the Hylians, they are far more primitive and with what one of the developer said about them having an early view on the Triforce, it makes more sense that they existed long prior to Skyward Sword.
Also, what about the Zonai Ruins in a Shroud of Darkness. On that island surrounded by a Tar Bog?
I believe the sheikah and zonai are one in the same technology side of one race and none technical
What about the labyrinth in the Hebra region you said in an earlier video you would talk about the labyrinth in either the Gerudo or Akkala region and you mention the Gerudo labyrinth in a video about the Zonai's territory and this video obviously details the Akkala region labyrinth, so what's wrong with the Hebra region labyrinth is it taboo or something?
i think that the ancient furnaces pipes source is ganondarf himself, he has been mummified for 10K years or more! welll i aint a theorist lol but thats what i think
What about the land feature on akala beach that is a giant zonai swirl
The hylian and gerudo marriage was not the first interacial marriage in hyrule a instructor in the gerudo town confirmed that gerudo women used hylian men to procreate..... Even in oot
I honestly wouldn't be very happy if BotW 2 is just the same hyrule with a few new mechanics and locations (and NPCs).
Gerudo next
All the zelda youtubers post on the same day
Some botw clips got Saturation+1000000 lol
How long does a vid take?
My one gripe with Creating a Champion is that map - it misidentifies a handful of the ruins, attributing Hylian to Zonai and visa versa. But otherwise it's…mmph! 👌🏻
Well, it was written by Nintendo Dream Magazine, not the zelda staff.
The only thing to consider are the magnificient artworks and what's written on them.
The Developers boxes, exept maybe Manabu Takehara, this guy speaks nonsense, that the Deku Tree was a regular cherry tree ext .... ignord everything from him.
And the interview..
@@nonoctoro4933 it was published by Nintendo Dream staff, but includes direct development quotes, notes, and artifacts. There's no hogwash like Encyclopedia, so don't be dragging.
@@jacobm.zaccaria929 Everything that isn't what I just specified was written by Nintendo Dream Writters.
So, this is just like HE.
For HH, it was Shogakukan.
@@nonoctoro4933 I disagree. Encyclopedia's work gave them free reign to produce their own theories concerning lore from across the series. The master works for Breath of the Wild focuses solely on that singular game, and collects all pertinent information present from in game, as well as insights from the development team itself. The devs worked with them on this one.
@@jacobm.zaccaria929 They gave what's on the developer quotes and the artworks.
i can't wait for Zelda Restoring Breaths (that's what i'll call botw2 till an official title is released)
Please,use the Google translation. Acabo de ter um pensamento, que o único lugar do jogo onde não vemos nenhum cenário ? Seria aquela ilha na prova tenebrosa,aonde passamos todo tempo na escuridão, e dificilmente conseguimos lutar contra aquele Onix maldito que tem uma bola ancestral no pescoço. Neste lugar lembra muito o ambiente que vemos BOTW 2 , e o único lugar fora Lost Woods onde temos que seguir uma linha senão nós perdemos
I wonder what would happen if the calamity effected the shrine of resurrection while link was inside
How do we know that this will be the darkest Zelda ever? Just off speculation?
If there is going to be any reference to Sheikah in #BotWAct2 - I imagine we'll see the origin of the #BlueFlames.
How did I never make a connection between Rist Peninsula and the Lomei/Zonai/Lurelin symbol
the Zonai were the Interlopers they returned in the Destroyed Hyrule to destroy it more and thats why they are called the Barbaians.
The Interlopers became the Twili and the Twili are shadow beings that cannot physically exists within the Light world, that's why Midna made herself a shadow until she obtained powers from Zelda.
Theory: Tarrey Town was the location of the rebuilt Hyrule Castle in Wind Waker. As such, it has always meant to been a place that symbolizes unity and renewal. And if Hyrule is the same world as Mario World, it is possible that it is the future location of Peach's Castle in Mario and Hudson and Rhondson are the ancestors of the Toads/Mario World nobility.
Lanayru pls :>
Good video, but I’m tired of Zonai videos...
Yes to the first, no to the second part of your comment. For me anyway.
Agreed. Couldn't care less about the Zonai.
