Yako I mean, it'd be a cool twist at the start of a Zelda game; you start as a vaguely link looking kid, and wander into a cave where you can barely see an old man in the darkness, his blonde beard streaked with grey, a monster sneaks up behind you, and WHAM, he strikes it down so quickly you didn't even see him get up, and you switch to controlling him as he says "It's dangerous to go alone. Come with me."
Hamish Walker I'd find it interesting if you were the little kid the whole way through, perhaps have an older him narrating his adventures with the old man, with of course in some cases reality not matching up to what really went down
“So, Gannon has truly risen again?” Says the old hermit. “Yes” Responds the young boy who stands at the mouth of the cave. “Then it is dangerous to go alone, allow me to go with you” announces the hermit with a relit and ancient determination, rising and picking up his weapon and shield as he speaks.
Dude, that would be fucking cool. I can imagine a Zelda game with Soulsborne aesthetics, where link is an old man but a dangerous one at that, like Gehrman.
dudeee that would be an amazing God-Of-War like game where you have the Mentor be the playable char (Link) teaching the new adventurer or maybe even have something different where the new adventurer has to go on his own as the old man is fighting with corrupted hyrulean soldiers while leaving the monsters to the young boy?
It just occurred to me that old link would be fucking terrifying. He has a literal century worth of experience of fighting monsters and its quite clear based on his build that his body, if at all increased in overall strength, and link who already had a butt ton of techniques in botw with 80 years to hone his techniques and discover new ones? Just... Holy shit...
Song of Storms Lyrics First the wind, Then the rain, All becomes a hurricane. Twisters sweep the land, High tides hit the sand. Feel the rain, Feel the snow, Feel the wind its mighty blow. Let's all sing the song of the storms. Sing a wish, Have no fear, Have a will and make it clear. Bravery has no end, You must reascend. Feel the hail, Feel the cold, Live the hell that makes us bold, Let us sing the song of the storms. All the life All the pain All of death is darkened rain Grim fates from the seas Hear our song of pleas All of hope Is a lie Long ago all hope has died Please have mercy on our _souls_ _please have hope_ _please don’t die_ _save our land and all our lives_ _all times come to end_ _souls must reascend_ _hear our cries_ _hear our plea_ _the song of storms shall make them bleed_ *YOU ARE OUR FINAL HOPE* Truly live, Live the pain, Die while dancing in the rain. Terror in the sky, Hear our goddess cry. Deadly winds, Piercing sound, Cry as heaven crashes down, Singing our song of the storms. Blinded by, Heavy mist, Please, the sun has to exist. Sleep to thunder strikes, Wake to sleepless nights. Storm goes on, Sharp and stiff, Soon we forget how to live. Please stop the song of the storms. Hurricanes, Village flood, Rain, spilling the goddess blood. You must make it cease, Greet our sky with peace. Please our god, Stop the rain, Clouds are shackled by her chain. _YOU HAVE BROUGHT US TO DEMISE._ _All the rain,_ _It is gone,_ _Joy and wonder till the dawn._ _Calm and peaceful sky,_ _Under it we lie._ _It is done,_ _We have won,_ _Clouds defeated by the sun._ _Then turned a slave of the night._ Edit: Man, a whole ass YEAR later, and people still like this?! I havent checked on this in _so long_, this is the last thing that i expected, really! You guys are great, thank you for the lovely comments
I've been thinking recently about how much of a paradox this songs existence is in the game. You only know the song because you learned it from a guy in the future who apparently learned it from you in the past, and you were only able to teach him the song in the past because you learned it from him in the future. It just goes around and around like a windmill.
I mean, in the world of Hyrule the 3 goddesses are a thing, each one representing a piece of the triforce, each one empowering their respective champion, so it's not out of the logic of the universe that Farore created the song and put it in Link's way.

A cycle comes where the hero is born first, lives a full life, even retires. Then this young upstart "King of Thieves" gets too big for his britches and it's time to get him the fuck off my Hylian lawn.
We can even get a reversal of the scene from Ocarina. Instead of Ganon on a giant horse rearing up in front of kid link... We get Old Link on Epona rearing up in front of kid Ganon XD
Now I just want a very grim and dark Zelda game where Link lost but as he ages he finds his future reincarnation and that inspires this old grizzled link to finally do what he must, there is no more princes to save, no more kingdom to save, now its personal with Gannon, he must end the cycle finally by doing what’s right, not just trapping gannons spirit, but he must end the cycle, by ending gannons rebirth cycle he also ends his own, but as he lays down in victory he has truly gained nothing, except the knowledge that the future generations will finally live in peace, but they won’t know why, there was nobody to remember the battle, it was just a battle of nobodies fighting of what is now nothing.... the perfect way to end the legend of Zelda....
''The legend of the hero of time had been accomplished. Link lay victorious over Ganon's broken, battered and bleeding form, the triforce now in his possession. He would return it to the princess, and all would end well. He smiled, a final sigh leaving his lips -- his adventure was finished. He had accomplished his destiny.'' ''Years had passed -- and Link, now an older man, cared for his crops. Sowing, caring, reaping and harvesting, year after year. He lived his ages and then some -- he saw the kingdom grow, and he saw its depressions. He was there, when the princess lay on her bed, giving out her final breath. And he grieved, as did all the kingdom. However, he knew, deep within his heart and soul, that her passing only meant a new cycle could begin, and he could feel his own end approaching.'' ''Once again, years had passed -- Link's sword, shield and tunic gathering dust in his basement... And yet, he had not passed away. Still tending to his crops. Zelda had died, and the kingdom had begun descending. It soon became clear the new cycle would be one without a new hero, or a new princess. The realisation came to the old man Link now was, as he descended in his basement, determined to pick up his equipment once again, and do again what he once did -- defeat evil, in the name of peace.''
I had an idea like what if link was training someone to help him fight and in the end link ends up passing away but then the person who he help train became the new link
An Old Man Link game would be amazing and epic, an older experienced Link, scarred and disillusioned from his many adventures and the death of his Zelda years before, battling Ganon in a dystopian Hyrule, but not to improve and fix the land, but rather to just stop it from getting worse and opening the way for hope to be inspired in others as the new generation's Zelda is finally born, kind of like a swan song for the hero where you don't know if he truly will live or die at the end, even if he wins!
Aaron Limebeer Actually, in Legend of Zelda's story. The "New generation" is not really exits. İn story Our Link is the Reencarnation of old ones and when he dies he Reencarnate in future somehow. So "New Generation" is not real, Our Link is the same Link, different body but Same Soul. And by the moves of Zelda and Link, I think they probably do remember their past lives. İn some games it looks like answer is yes in some games answer looks like no. But I do believe they both do somehow. He dont need to be old to Being experiencenced because he already got his past lives experience. And even Zelda dies, Link will know when he die and a while later they will both born and find each other again. And this happens all the time. I think Thats why they never got kids, because When they both die, they will Reencarnate again but their kid will stay Dead. I personally think Thats why. Because they dont want to left the kid behind.
Aaron Limebeer OH and another thing, in one game, Link was defeated by Ganon and killed but even he lost, Zelda was faced Ganon and beat him. And she probably was know that they will meet again. Thats the thing of Zelda I guess. There is actually Just 3 really important characters: Link Zelda Ganon AND every time Ganon reborn again, Link and Zelda reborn too for stop him. Thats the story of all Zelda games.Link and Zelda love each other in this unfinishing cycle.We never see it but Clearly We can say they both love each other. And another thing is, I think the story is generally about Zelda and I think Thats why games name is "The Legend of Zelda" And in every game, at the Words after came this ones explain Our hero. Like in Legend of Zelda:Windwaker Our main character had a Windwaker and using that was a main thing of that game. İn Legend of Zelda:Breath of the Wild Our main character was making himself stronger in mostly wild World, thats why he is "Breath Of The Wild". Oh Man I want to play Zelda so much. Breath of the Wild will be my first I hope. İn my own country Switch is extremely expensive because of Nintendo Does not sell it in my country so they bring it from other countries it make it so expensive.And I am in another country right now I hope I can get one before turn back my country. Because, because of ita so New when its exits stocks died when it Just out. İt will probably repeat a few Times more. And I am a student so I can miss it. I hope People will not finish it too QUİCK so I can find one.
Imagine if one of Link's incarnations lived long enough to see two Ganon incarnations, and he spends his entire second adventure thinking, "I'm too old for this shit..." While absolutely annihilating Ganon.
@@PapaWerserian he only fought one calamity was the power leaking out from og Ganon...however he did fight the oldest Ganon (not counting skyward sword)
Ganon's been reincarnated early, and Link has yet to die. He takes up the Master Sword and Hylian Shield one last time to fight the king of evil. And he's fucking _pissed._
And rather than Epona link just charge dashes straight twords Gannon, in a fucking blue ball of fire, and right as he is about to run into him, leaps a leap so high, he almost touches the clouds and yells "DIE MOTHER FUCKERRRRRRR!" And proceeds to slam down on Gannon, master sword in hand, with the power of the 7 suns, thus finally ending the horror that was Gannon. (Feel free to write this into a fan fic)
Tazlikesbacon But if link was that much older than...well every link ever wouldn't Epona just be dead? Not even really a choice...or is it. *Digs up Epona's bones and sits on them*
As the old blacksmith hung his hammer on the peg at the edge of his forge, he breathed a deep sigh of relief for another uneventful day in his small town. As he hung his dusty leather apron on the peg beneath an old dusty sword and shield, he walked over to the town pub to grab an ale and some bread before he turned in for the night. The old but still youthful blacksmith entered the pub, grabbed an open spot at a large table near the bar, and signaled for his usual. As the barmaid delivered his order and he paid her, a small boy burst through the door, he yelled for his father, telling everyone that moblins were invading the edge of the village and that dark clouds were blowing in. Panic set about the room, no one noticed the blacksmith rise from his bench, he dusted off his white pants, cleaned his green tunic, and walked to the door of the tavern. The patrons yelled for him to stop, that it was dangerous to go out alone, but when the blacksmith turned back to face them, one hand clutching the door to the pub, the fire burning in his old eyes set them back on their heels, it was the look an old wolf wore, it spoke of a warrior who had yet to fight his last battle, he gave them a nod and ripped the door open. When he did, a fairy was waiting, they had seen fairies before, but this one seemed old, it glowed with a dim blue light. They all watched from the doorway and windows, as the smith walked across the street, he threw his leather apron to the ground and pulled the old sword and shield free of the peg they had adorned for nearly three decades. Wiping the dust free of the glimmering blue blade, and giving the shield a quick shine and test to make sure it was worthy of battle, the smith equipped his items and walked to the center of the wide dirt street, pulling out a blue ocarina the smith played a sweet soothing melody that seemed to echo off far into the distance. As if in response to his call, a low fog blew in from the east, and a horse with a glistening brown coat, and silver moonlit hair galloped out of the fog to stand before the smith, as the smith turned his back to the pub, exposing the bright blue and silver shield, with red and white markings on it to the viewers, he reached out and placed a hand on the horse’s nose, and only the boy who had announced the monsters, who had followed him outside heard what he said to the mare. “Thank you for holding it old friend”, as he pulled his hand away a shining yellow triangle was hovering over his hand. The mayor could be heard inside the pub answering questions, “no Martha, that shield bears the symbol of the last royal family”. Outside the grey-haired smith climbed upon the mare’s saddle and drew his marvelous shining blade with his right hand, he grasped the reins with his left hand, and spurred the steed, who reared back, flailing powerful feet defiantly, they charged off towards the dark clouds hovering over the town. All the townsfolk could see as he rode off through the streets to the west was the flashing of a shining blue sword, and the terrorized sound of howling moblins marking his path.
“While my body may be broken, and my clothes tattered, as long as my sword still screams and my shield still rings the cry of steel, and as long as there is breath in my body, THE COURAGE OF THIS WARRIOR OF HYRULE WILL NEVER FALTER!” -Old Link, fighting in the last battle of his life
Link's grandkids: hey someone go get mum, Grandpa's at it again out in the fields. Meanwhile in Hyrule field somewhere: "GET BACK HERE YOU DAMN POE!" *swears fade into distance.*
Ah, a truly beautiful ending. Link grew old, had a family, and spent the rest of his days doing what he loved most, mowing massive lawns full of hordes of monsters. 😊
"I've come to hate our roles, you know." he said with a sigh, a weariness in his voice many times beyond his years. "It's all gotten so...." he paused for a moment, as if seeking the answer to a great mystery. "Dull." he completed. "Trust me, I get that." his first guest replied, as his second nodded quietly. "No matter how many times we do this, nothing ever really changes" came the voice of his second guest, his first soon chimed up. "In the end, it all comes down to the three of us." he paused, anger in his eyes grew, and was cooled as his third guest put her hand on his shoulder. He watched silently, the three of them quietly drinking from their cups of tea. After a minute, he spoke. "Do... Do you think that, maybe sometime, somewhere down the line, we could be, if not friends, then at least allies?" He was met with a pregnant silence as his guests seem to consider his words. "I-" his first guest began, then stopped and sighed. "I honestly don't know. It may happen somewhere, sometime long after here and now, but I don't really care that much right now." His guests finished their tea and set down their cups. He stood, his own, forgotten, half full and now cold. "So then," he walked to the door, grabbing up a sheathed sword that leaned against the wall, before opening it "Shall we finish this?" he called back over his shoulder. With a quiet nod, his guests stood.
Some fan is eventually gonna make this but Nintendo, instead of supporting the game, making it cannon and employing the person that made it, they are gonna sue it and shut it down for no fucking reason.
I love your taste in music, your work with these remixes, and the little tidbits of yourself you've put out there in descriptions and comments so far. I've been here since the brachydios cover you did and I've loved almost every video you've uploaded. So before this channel inevitably explodes past the 100k subs mark and reading through this will no longer even be an option for you, I wanna thank you. Thanks for making my day again and again with your work. I've had certain tracks you've made on loop time and time again, and they've given me a range of feelings from being pumped up and motivated to do things, to wanting to go out and "seize the day". Keep doing what you're doing, you're awesome. Sincerely, a fan.
Not gonna lie, had most of his MH covers on a playlist on my way to a job interview (to a part-time job since I'm attending university, but it was important to me). Promptly got the job although I was dizzy and nervous as hell. Coincidence? I think not^^.
*Young whippersnapper bests him* Old link: I really have grown old. This kid is indeed worthy of the title as hero. *he hands his master sword to the newest generation of hero of Hyrule.*
@@nordicnostalgia8106 Yeah I'm sure I meant something else but for the life of me I can't figure out what I meant by that. I've known for years now that Link was Hylian and thus not an eternal child (Kokiri)
Would be awesome if link could time trsvel and work with his past and future self to save a corrupt timeline in which everything is overrun by gannon, or maybe something like that but that takes place in worlds from previous games depending on the timeline traveled to.
I had in mind a more complex one that took place in the setting of muliple previous games (ie like in majora's mask's clock town (and other locations), early hyrule, as well as possible new locations) along with enemies from past, present, and perhaps unforseen enemies from titled yet to come
Oh man, that would be so cool! Imagine if this link has already stopped ganon once in his life, but ganon was reincarnated early, and he had to fight him again, because he realizes that even if he dies, there won’t be enough time for another hero to be born and grown up before countless deaths mar the land of hyrule. He really doesn’t want to fight again, but he feels like he has no choice.
"I'm getting too old for this," he says before single-handedly toppling another ancient evil. Deed done, he plops down on a rock, and watches the sun set through the bottom of his dubious potion bottle.
Burak Akbay Yeah but older means Epona is dead ._. Therefore he can't spend hours on end trying to look cool on a horse THEREFORE MAKING HIM GIVE UP ON EVERYTHING AND VANISH INTO THE BLACKNESS OF AN UNUSED GAME
Loss of life Loss of love Fire raining from above Godess' sacred flame Rebuilds worlds again Nothing's left All is gone Reconstructing right and wrong Let's rebuild the world anew ...Nobody said the storm would be of rain.
Part one: The Legend Lives. This takes place after ocarina of time in the adult timeline. After the defeat of Ganondorf, Link and Zelda were married. Zelda, by some cruel trick of fate was unable to have children, and when she eventually perished. Link was alone. After leaving the castle, Link lived for 14 years in the wilderness, and the kingdom continued on. The panicked cries of a young woman ring out through the moonlit forest as a girl around 14 flees from stalfos. Link is having a nightmare about if he had failed to defeat Ganon, the screams of princess Zelda filling his dreams. Link wakes up in a cold sweat, yet the screams continue, he gets out of bed and takes up a sword and the hylian shield that are mounted on his wall, and takes out his tunic, folded neatly in his dresser, along with his items. The girl trips on a root and falls, the stalfos quickly gaining on her, suddenly, one falls to the ground in a splintered pile, the next getting an arrow through the back of its skull, the remaining two grab the girl and move into a moonlit clearing. A boulder that should be immovable is hurled into the clearing, nearly crushing the stalfos, Link steps into the clearing with his sword drawn, the courage and wisdom pieces of the triforce glowing on his hand, and the monsters charge, Link uses his free hand to shoot the long shot into the shield hand of one of the stalfos and rip it off, he ducks and flips as if he were still a young man, the monsters not getting a scratch on him, and link cleaves them both in 2. Link turns to the young lady, recognizing Zeldas eyes and says “it’s dangerous to go alone, come with me, princess.” End of part one. Part two: The Return of the Hero Zelda had been on her own for a month, they had never been so fast or coordinated, they were growing stronger, no, He was growing stronger. Link led the young girl through the woods without a word, his silent demeanor had changed little since his youth, he only said what was worth saying. “Hey, where are we going?” Zelda asked. While a fair question, Link didn’t have an answer worth saying, so he said nothing. “Who are you?” Zelda asked after a time. “Link.” While technically an answer, it wasn’t a particularly helpful one. “Why did you save me?” Zelda asked, becoming increasingly annoyed with the old man’s avoidance of conversation. Link had no answer to this that he could put a finger on, the night could play tricks and he usually ignored anything that wasn’t close. He said nothing. “Okay, what is your deal, you have said a total of ten words to me in the entire time I’ve known you, you somehow know I’m the princess, and is that a royal wedding ring? Where did you get that?” “From a wedding.” Link said. The memories of Zelda and him in their youth flooding back. They brought hyrule into a golden age with their leadership, and helped all live in peace. He remembered the day that he was married, the extravagant decor and beautiful music were surely nice, but Zelda was all he truly cared about. Snapping back into the present, they had arrived at their destination, links old house in kokiri forest, link said, “we’re here, take these.” He threw the kokiri sword, the boomerang, and the slingshot at her. He then added “we still have much to do, tell me, have you unlocked your potential as a safe yet?” “What does that even mean?” Zelda asked Link merely sighed and led them through the lost woods. The sound of an ocarina grew louder as they continued, until they reached a clearing with a girl who looked younger than zelda, playing a song. “Who is that?” Zelda asked “An old friend.” Link responded End of part two Note: I know I didn’t add all that much, but the chapter was already dragging on, so I thought it best to end it sooner rather than later. Expect a little bit of a wait for part three, school work is making it difficult to find the time to write this. Look forward to part three: Sage Of The Forest
I'd love to see a game with old link. I imagine he would be tired of fighting monsters and all, but at the same time, he just can't leave people to suffer.
BENJAMIN HOLLINGSED this could be a situation like in link to the past, but instead of your father dieing in the underground, its link, and you carry on the quest as his father
Holy balls man...that is an epic looking Link, he's ready to go. Master Sword, Hylian Shield, Bow and quiver full of arrows, and a belt of throwing daggers. That would be an epic version of Link to play as, just a grizzled old man who is forced into being the hero cause no one else is brave enough or skilled enough to do the job so this time he's not taking any chances and has a few more weapons than exploration based items.
Soldier captian: where did this storm come from!?! Soldier Private: Sir our scouts spotted an old man whistling a tune seconds before this storm formed
Just imagine- link had thought his fighting days were over now that he was old, but then the calamity starts once again and the mighty forgotten legend comes back with a sick ass beard and a kick butt attitude
Can we just make a fan comic where Link didn't use the shrine of resurrection, and instead wandered around regaining his strength over the 100 years of calamity? Or spent 30 years after the shrine of resurrection preparing to take out Ganon... or looking for a successor and finally saying "Well F*** it, if no one else is gonna fight Ganon I may as well come out of retirement..."
Go around Go around Man, I freaking love this town Who’s this fucking guy? What’s that thing and why? Watch him go This is wrong But he knows my favorite song Let’s all play the song Song of Storms First some wind Then some rain Then a fucking hurricane We’re all gonna die Time to say goodbye Holy crap What the shit I am 12 and what is this? We’re all gonna die tonight
Funny thing, Guru-Guru means "round and round" in Japanese, so basically the first two lines could loosely translate into his name - I wonder if BrandO knew that
I remember whistling to this while playing botw... regret it highly, I was climbing a cliff. This song is so good that it actually creates storm in other games!
Song of Storms has been my favorite song of all time for many years. It’s amazing in its complex simplicity, and why I have the song prompt from OOT tattooed on my arm (with some simple artistic flare). This version is great!
imagine, An old grizzled link, on the verge of becoming the heroes shadow, (from twilight princess) picks up his sword one last time, not for hyrule, not for the world or any other, but for the sake of a single village, his post retirement home, attacked by bandits, wild monsters and a corrupted kingdom no longer under zeldas control, heavy taxes, mafia methods of collection and constant abuse of authority. A game where human enemies are more dangerous than any moblin or stalfos, BotW styled gameplay with less magical elements but it could work, it'd be a bit like majoras mask but with a central base of operations, more power based fighting given the grizzled age and old bones, stalfos gear being obtainable just to fit it into canon, the heroes shadow from twilight princess, could end up a bit like a fantasy version of a completed MGV, I hear Kojimas not with konami anymore.
@@themonsterunderyourbed.7620 with both this reply and this comment I now imagine old link screaming "HYAAAA" while throwing bombs at someone who got onto his field
Imagine the "original" Link not being able to protect the Princess. With her giving him the Power of Wisdom with her dying breath, he fled from Hyrule. Years later, he gets found in a cave by a young boy reminding of himself. "What's your name?", the old man asked. "My name is -Atreus- -Loki- Link.", answered the young one. The old man stands up:"It's dangerous to go alone. Come with me!" Starting: *_"God _**_-father-_**_ of War: Link"_*
He could maybe be the God of Courage? Yes God of War sounds cool, but that could be Ganondorf in the Twilight Kingdom (I don't remember exactly what the place in Twilight Princess where Link finds that time hero is called or where Ganondorf is sealed). Then Zelda, wherever she is, could be Goddess of Wisdom?
@@zetasans495 No no, You are totally right about it not fitting, I was just talking about that God Of War reference, I thought you might've not noticed that lol, My bad
FalkKonE, what is this beautiful masterpiece????? First of all, you're giving leeway for any and every hurricane/tornado to WANT this playing while they go wild! Your covers are incredible, give their own personality within the musical phrases annnnnnnd they sound awesome to boot! Thanks for giving us (and me included 😄) these songs so that we may loop them for eternity! Keep it up, and those 50K subs will sneak up on you!
@@FalKKonE i picture this song as link's final stand against an army, civilians are dying, houses are burning, then from the ashes. link rises, looking *pissed* then proceeds to kill them all.
Imagine a game where Link is old, but not just old, doubtful. Doubtful if he should keep fighting evil. Does it really make a difference? Defeat Ganon once, and he comes right back. Is it worth Link's time? Has he wasted his younger years? In this game, Link learns that a true hero doesn't just have courage, he has hope, an unwavering hope. Hope that someday, things will get better, if he just keeps fighting, keeps battling against the forces of evil. Throughout most of the game, you play as a small group of ragtag young heroes, trying to take down Ganon (or maybe a new villain) and restore Hyrule. But, of course, this group is only able to delay the inevitable. Ganon becomes too powerful for them, and is threatening to plunge Hyrule into eternal darkness. Then, out of the shadows, the sound of a charging horse hits everyone's ears. Out of the shadows comes an old Link, armed with the Master Sword and a look of renewed determination. With the young group's help, they defeat Ganon!
You know what I love in this pic? It's the fact that we can see some of Link's stuff outside of his dimensional pockets and with that massive beard. OF COURSE THE BEARD Thanks FalKKonE for the great remix!
Old Man Link game for next Nintendo machine. And make it dark, so dark. Ganon's won, Zelda's dead, and Link, alive and questing so long after the Hero normally has won, is tired. Tired of the monsters, tired of the puzzles, tired of the misery and fear on the faces of the populace, he's just tired of it all. And at the end, Old Man Link stands victorious but wounded, a Hero to the masses, and he hands the Master Sword and his shield to a little boy we'd seen throughout the game in a gesture symbolic of a passing of the torch as we have no idea if Old Man Link will live much longer or if the boy will have need of the Hero's gear in days to come. Yeah, Old Man Link, with his epic beard and icy gaze, a grizzled veteran of too many battles, he's seen too many good, skilled soldiers and would-be heroes fall, lost too many friends and his true love who may or may not have been Zelda. Yeah, I'd play the hell out of that Zelda game. Oh, Nintendo would never do it, of course, but I can dream, damn it!
"His battle waged on for centuries. From a mere child to a young man. Link fought to protect Hyrule... he defeated Ganon, he defeated Ganandorf and many others who try to endanger the kingdom he loved. But he did not account for one enemy who knew his every move. A clone of him made entirely from the darkness of the evil he vanquished. Defeated, Link could only watch beaten and bloody as Hyrule was destroyed... Dark Link sparred his life only saying a few words before he left "when you are worthy of strength once more... then we shall settle this, brother." Time would pass. The former hero of hyrule got older, and trained from each new adventure to get stronger. Being worthy of strength once more. He picked up his faithful sword and shield. And journeyed towards his destiny. No longer a mere child with a dream to be a hero. Now a veteran out for revenge."
this is by far my favorite version of this song. the slightly different melody of the female singer and the contrast with the electric guitar really builds the feel of a storm. i love it man
Ganon is rising once again. A young man In a green tunic goes to the village Elder to ask what can be done. The old man looks at the boy and then rises from where he had sat and walks toward an old chest. As he walks he mentions that he is too old to fight the king of darkness, So he must stay here in the village and help how he can. As he opens the chest he mentions how the young man was very brave to come to him despite the dangers in the darkness. From chest he pulls out a sword, a family relic. As he turns around, young man notices faded green cloth hidden under the old man's robes The old man offers him the sword and says, "It's dangerous to go alone. Take this."
I love it. And in the best... The music and the picture are in perfect combination. Old Link is charisimatic. We can see an great evolution in his old years.... And he's left-handed.
In this timeline Link plays a mystical axe with strings that summons natural disasters. Zelda is a cannibal valkyrie. And Gannon speaks solely in explosions.
Connecting two very diffrent artstyles of music sounds insane at first but if you let it happen that is exactly what you could describe it with... absolutly insane
Song of Storms Lyrics First the wind, Then the rain, All becomes a hurricane. Twisters sweep the land, Rising tides hit the sand. Feel the rain, Feel the snow, Feel the wind its mighty blow. Let's all sing the song of the storms. Sing a wish, Have no fear, Have a will and make it clear. Bravery has no end, Always reascend.

Ah~! This was my favorite song in Ocarina of Time~! I was so excited to see you covered this! I'm not at all a morning person, but I feel I've gained a lot of energy from this. ~u~ The problem now is... Instead of being stuck here doing nothing because I'm tired, I'm stuck here doing nothing because I keep replaying the song. @_@ Nooooo...!
This gives me an idea. Make a game with old link, he has the ocarina, but there is only one song, the song of age. Basically it allowed link to become three different ages, kid link, adult link, and old link. It would be used to solve different puzzles, for instance kid link is much shorter, so you play the song and kid link is used to fit into smaller places, but kid link's attacks aren't as strong as adult or old links. See what I mean? Old link is also bigger and stronger, so he would be used to push boulders, step on larger buttons, and defeat stronger enemies, and then adult link is in the middle. He's smaller than old link, so he can fit into some smaller places, he's stronger than kid link, so he has a better attack, and can push/pull bigger objects. That would be fucking awesome
I believe you have to be kid link in Ocarina of time for the temple of time. But it's not through an ocarina song but through time travelling at the church you initially time travelled. No old link though.
I agree with everything you said but with an alteration for the Elder Link. Elder Link isn't as fast or as strong as the other two, BUT he has advanced knowledge of items that allow him to use them in unique ways (additional abilities and such). I would also implement a charisma/fame type system. For example, Link would have greater or lesser fame allowing him additional interactions or influences on NPCs; this can be good and bad depending on what has occurred.
Elder Link's time period is dark and twisted, caused by something his younger version missed or hadn't realized where he caused a series of events that resulted in corruption, now he lives every day trying to fix the wrongs of the past.
Link child: is a hero
Link young: is a hero
Link adult: a hero
Old link: still a hero
Hotel:trivago
Undead link is teaching the next hero.
Old Link: a Legend
shoulda been Old Link: Still a link.
im still waiting for them to make tingle create a link-bot in the newer games. i want link v mecha link battles. its like dark link with a fun twist.
It's dangerous to go alone. Stay here, kid.
The old man then proceeds to save Hyrule.
Yako I mean, it'd be a cool twist at the start of a Zelda game; you start as a vaguely link looking kid, and wander into a cave where you can barely see an old man in the darkness, his blonde beard streaked with grey, a monster sneaks up behind you, and WHAM, he strikes it down so quickly you didn't even see him get up, and you switch to controlling him as he says "It's dangerous to go alone. Come with me."
Hamish Walker I'd find it interesting if you were the little kid the whole way through, perhaps have an older him narrating his adventures with the old man, with of course in some cases reality not matching up to what really went down
This comment is pure genius xD
Lekki OMFG 😂😂😂
hmmmm it would be interesting if they were both incarnations of link one young one old or we could just have an op older link
“An old shield can still stop a blow
A worn blade can still slay a foe

Lmao some dude just liked the comment
“So, Gannon has truly risen again?”
Says the old hermit.
“Yes”
Responds the young boy who stands at the mouth of the cave.
“Then it is dangerous to go alone, allow me to go with you” announces the hermit with a relit and ancient determination, rising and picking up his weapon and shield as he speaks.
Dude, that would be fucking cool. I can imagine a Zelda game with Soulsborne aesthetics, where link is an old man but a dangerous one at that, like Gehrman.
dudeee that would be an amazing God-Of-War like game where you have the Mentor be the playable char (Link) teaching the new adventurer or maybe even have something different where the new adventurer has to go on his own as the old man is fighting with corrupted hyrulean soldiers while leaving the monsters to the young boy?
bro a 2 player game with an old and young link were they help eachother in things they lack in???
@@supersonic4863 Smash Bros
@@BranJohn98 Yeah, they probably meant a full Zelda game rather than just Smash Bros
It just occurred to me that old link would be fucking terrifying. He has a literal century worth of experience of fighting monsters and its quite clear based on his build that his body, if at all increased in overall strength, and link who already had a butt ton of techniques in botw with 80 years to hone his techniques and discover new ones?

Song of Storms
Lyrics
First the wind,
Then the rain,
All becomes a hurricane.
Twisters sweep the land,
High tides hit the sand.
Feel the rain,
Feel the snow,
Feel the wind its mighty blow.
Let's all sing the song of the storms.
Sing a wish,
Have no fear,
Have a will and make it clear.
Bravery has no end,
You must reascend.
Feel the hail,
Feel the cold,
Live the hell that makes us bold,
Let us sing the song of the storms.
All the life
All the pain
All of death is darkened rain
Grim fates from the seas
Hear our song of pleas
All of hope
Is a lie
Long ago all hope has died
Please have mercy on our _souls_
_please have hope_
_please don’t die_
_save our land and all our lives_
_all times come to end_
_souls must reascend_
_hear our cries_
_hear our plea_
_the song of storms shall make them bleed_
*YOU ARE OUR FINAL HOPE*
Truly live,
Live the pain,
Die while dancing in the rain.
Terror in the sky,
Hear our goddess cry.
Deadly winds,
Piercing sound,
Cry as heaven crashes down,
Singing our song of the storms.
Blinded by,
Heavy mist,
Please, the sun has to exist.
Sleep to thunder strikes,
Wake to sleepless nights.
Storm goes on,
Sharp and stiff,
Soon we forget how to live.
Please stop the song of the storms.
Hurricanes,
Village flood,
Rain, spilling the goddess blood.
You must make it cease,
Greet our sky with peace.
Please our god,
Stop the rain,
Clouds are shackled by her chain.
_YOU HAVE BROUGHT US TO DEMISE._
_All the rain,_
_It is gone,_
_Joy and wonder till the dawn._
_Calm and peaceful sky,_
_Under it we lie._
_It is done,_
_We have won,_
_Clouds defeated by the sun._
_Then turned a slave of the night._
Edit: Man, a whole ass YEAR later, and people still like this?! I havent checked on this in _so long_, this is the last thing that i expected, really! You guys are great, thank you for the lovely comments

Damn, that fits the song damn well, along with the pic
A goddamn truck absolutely perfect
I wish someone does a cover of the song and include these lyrics because this looks and sounds amazing with the music.
I've been thinking recently about how much of a paradox this songs existence is in the game. You only know the song because you learned it from a guy in the future who apparently learned it from you in the past, and you were only able to teach him the song in the past because you learned it from him in the future. It just goes around and around like a windmill.

@@SanilJadhav711 yes

I mean, in the world of Hyrule the 3 goddesses are a thing, each one representing a piece of the triforce, each one empowering their respective champion, so it's not out of the logic of the universe that Farore created the song and put it in Link's way.
Remember, one of Link's signature techniques is the Hurricane Spin.
Hurricanes are a type of storm!
Link: “I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING!”
Hyrule: Is in peril again
Link: "NOW I'M MOTIVATED!!!"

Shit, now I want a Zelda game where Link is old and tired of Ganon's shit. Beards make everything better.
A cycle comes where the hero is born first, lives a full life, even retires.
Then this young upstart "King of Thieves" gets too big for his britches and it's time to get him the fuck off my Hylian lawn.
We can even get a reversal of the scene from Ocarina. Instead of Ganon on a giant horse rearing up in front of kid link... We get Old Link on Epona rearing up in front of kid Ganon XD
eugostodedub
and all the music is metal as fuck.
I don't want to dash anyone's hopes, but that's kinda what Link's Uncle in Link to the Past was trying to do... Didn't work very well.
Link's Uncle didn't have the Triforce of Courage
The Only Reason Link Is Still Fighting Is Because Those Moblins Keep On Getting On His Lawn.
whuts that, a pvz reference?
Nah its a boomer reference
Now I want a Zelda game in PVZ style
Now I just want a very grim and dark Zelda game where Link lost but as he ages he finds his future reincarnation and that inspires this old grizzled link to finally do what he must, there is no more princes to save, no more kingdom to save, now its personal with Gannon, he must end the cycle finally by doing what’s right, not just trapping gannons spirit, but he must end the cycle, by ending gannons rebirth cycle he also ends his own, but as he lays down in victory he has truly gained nothing, except the knowledge that the future generations will finally live in peace, but they won’t know why, there was nobody to remember the battle, it was just a battle of nobodies fighting of what is now nothing.... the perfect way to end the legend of Zelda....
it would need a zelda tho cause there are 3 entities bound to the curse not just link and ganon a.k.a demise
That gave me chills ngl
Someone got that dark souls 3 inspiration

''The legend of the hero of time had been accomplished. Link lay victorious over Ganon's broken, battered and bleeding form, the triforce now in his possession. He would return it to the princess, and all would end well. He smiled, a final sigh leaving his lips -- his adventure was finished. He had accomplished his destiny.''
''Years had passed -- and Link, now an older man, cared for his crops. Sowing, caring, reaping and harvesting, year after year. He lived his ages and then some -- he saw the kingdom grow, and he saw its depressions. He was there, when the princess lay on her bed, giving out her final breath. And he grieved, as did all the kingdom. However, he knew, deep within his heart and soul, that her passing only meant a new cycle could begin, and he could feel his own end approaching.''
''Once again, years had passed -- Link's sword, shield and tunic gathering dust in his basement... And yet, he had not passed away. Still tending to his crops. Zelda had died, and the kingdom had begun descending. It soon became clear the new cycle would be one without a new hero, or a new princess. The realisation came to the old man Link now was, as he descended in his basement, determined to pick up his equipment once again, and do again what he once did -- defeat evil, in the name of peace.''
that was deep
I had an idea like what if link was training someone to help him fight and in the end link ends up passing away but then the person who he help train became the new link
The work is done. The work always gets done.
I can see it. Kind of like God of War 4, but instead of Link having a kid, it’s his apprentice. Unless we want him to have a kid...
Love it man
An Old Man Link game would be amazing and epic, an older experienced Link, scarred and disillusioned from his many adventures and the death of his Zelda years before, battling Ganon in a dystopian Hyrule, but not to improve and fix the land, but rather to just stop it from getting worse and opening the way for hope to be inspired in others as the new generation's Zelda is finally born, kind of like a swan song for the hero where you don't know if he truly will live or die at the end, even if he wins!
Maybe even there can be time travels like Ocarina, where you control Old Link, Young Link and adult Link as well.
Aaron Limebeer Actually, in Legend of Zelda's story. The "New generation" is not really exits. İn story Our Link is the Reencarnation of old ones and when he dies he Reencarnate in future somehow. So "New Generation" is not real, Our Link is the same Link, different body but Same Soul. And by the moves of Zelda and Link, I think they probably do remember their past lives. İn some games it looks like answer is yes in some games answer looks like no. But I do believe they both do somehow. He dont need to be old to Being experiencenced because he already got his past lives experience. And even Zelda dies, Link will know when he die and a while later they will both born and find each other again. And this happens all the time. I think Thats why they never got kids, because When they both die, they will Reencarnate again but their kid will stay Dead. I personally think Thats why. Because they dont want to left the kid behind.
Aaron Limebeer OH and another thing, in one game, Link was defeated by Ganon and killed but even he lost, Zelda was faced Ganon and beat him. And she probably was know that they will meet again. Thats the thing of Zelda I guess. There is actually Just 3 really important characters:
Link
Zelda
Ganon
AND every time Ganon reborn again, Link and Zelda reborn too for stop him. Thats the story of all Zelda games.Link and Zelda love each other in this unfinishing cycle.We never see it but Clearly We can say they both love each other. And another thing is, I think the story is generally about Zelda and I think Thats why games name is "The Legend of Zelda" And in every game, at the Words after came this ones explain Our hero. Like in Legend of Zelda:Windwaker Our main character had a Windwaker and using that was a main thing of that game. İn Legend of Zelda:Breath of the Wild Our main character was making himself stronger in mostly wild World, thats why he is "Breath Of The Wild". Oh Man I want to play Zelda so much. Breath of the Wild will be my first I hope. İn my own country Switch is extremely expensive because of Nintendo Does not sell it in my country so they bring it from other countries it make it so expensive.And I am in another country right now I hope I can get one before turn back my country. Because, because of ita so New when its exits stocks died when it Just out. İt will probably repeat a few Times more. And I am a student so I can miss it. I hope People will not finish it too QUİCK so I can find one.
Aaron Limebeer that would be.depressing and sad :(
This is kinda what Breath of the Wild is about.
Imagine if one of Link's incarnations lived long enough to see two Ganon incarnations, and he spends his entire second adventure thinking, "I'm too old for this shit..." While absolutely annihilating Ganon.
Tears of the kingdom link technically fought two incarnations of Ganon but that is new news.
@@PapaWerserian he only fought one calamity was the power leaking out from og Ganon...however he did fight the oldest Ganon (not counting skyward sword)
Well this aged well
Link to the Past Link fought Ganon 2 times : in ALttP and the Oracles games
"While you spent your time bein' dead, I done been spendin' my time studyin' the blade."
Ganon's been reincarnated early, and Link has yet to die. He takes up the Master Sword and Hylian Shield one last time to fight the king of evil.
And he's fucking _pissed._
Link: Dammit Ganon I'm gettin to old for your shit now get off my Hyrule.
And rather than Epona link just charge dashes straight twords Gannon, in a fucking blue ball of fire, and right as he is about to run into him, leaps a leap so high, he almost touches the clouds and yells
"DIE MOTHER FUCKERRRRRRR!" And proceeds to slam down on Gannon, master sword in hand, with the power of the 7 suns, thus finally ending the horror that was Gannon.
(Feel free to write this into a fan fic)
Tazlikesbacon But if link was that much older than...well every link ever wouldn't Epona just be dead? Not even really a choice...or is it.
*Digs up Epona's bones and sits on them*
If Nintendo does this, I would use all my money to buy it...

As the old blacksmith hung his hammer on the peg at the edge of his forge, he breathed a deep sigh of relief for another uneventful day in his small town. As he hung his dusty leather apron on the peg beneath an old dusty sword and shield, he walked over to the town pub to grab an ale and some bread before he turned in for the night. The old but still youthful blacksmith entered the pub, grabbed an open spot at a large table near the bar, and signaled for his usual. As the barmaid delivered his order and he paid her, a small boy burst through the door, he yelled for his father, telling everyone that moblins were invading the edge of the village and that dark clouds were blowing in.
Panic set about the room, no one noticed the blacksmith rise from his bench, he dusted off his white pants, cleaned his green tunic, and walked to the door of the tavern. The patrons yelled for him to stop, that it was dangerous to go out alone, but when the blacksmith turned back to face them, one hand clutching the door to the pub, the fire burning in his old eyes set them back on their heels, it was the look an old wolf wore, it spoke of a warrior who had yet to fight his last battle, he gave them a nod and ripped the door open. When he did, a fairy was waiting, they had seen fairies before, but this one seemed old, it glowed with a dim blue light.
They all watched from the doorway and windows, as the smith walked across the street, he threw his leather apron to the ground and pulled the old sword and shield free of the peg they had adorned for nearly three decades. Wiping the dust free of the glimmering blue blade, and giving the shield a quick shine and test to make sure it was worthy of battle, the smith equipped his items and walked to the center of the wide dirt street, pulling out a blue ocarina the smith played a sweet soothing melody that seemed to echo off far into the distance. As if in response to his call, a low fog blew in from the east, and a horse with a glistening brown coat, and silver moonlit hair galloped out of the fog to stand before the smith, as the smith turned his back to the pub, exposing the bright blue and silver shield, with red and white markings on it to the viewers, he reached out and placed a hand on the horse’s nose, and only the boy who had announced the monsters, who had followed him outside heard what he said to the mare.
“Thank you for holding it old friend”, as he pulled his hand away a shining yellow triangle was hovering over his hand. The mayor could be heard inside the pub answering questions, “no Martha, that shield bears the symbol of the last royal family”. Outside the grey-haired smith climbed upon the mare’s saddle and drew his marvelous shining blade with his right hand, he grasped the reins with his left hand, and spurred the steed, who reared back, flailing powerful feet defiantly, they charged off towards the dark clouds hovering over the town. All the townsfolk could see as he rode off through the streets to the west was the flashing of a shining blue sword, and the terrorized sound of howling moblins marking his path.

"Do... Do you think that, maybe sometime, somewhere down the line, we could be, if not friends, then at least allies?" He was met with a pregnant silence as his guests seem to consider his words.
"I-" his first guest began, then stopped and sighed. "I honestly don't know. It may happen somewhere, sometime long after here and now, but I don't really care that much right now." His guests finished their tea and set down their cups. He stood, his own, forgotten, half full and now cold.
"So then," he walked to the door, grabbing up a sheathed sword that leaned against the wall, before opening it "Shall we finish this?" he called back over his shoulder.

me
it would be a cool idea
Would be awesome if link could time trsvel and work with his past and future self to save a corrupt timeline in which everything is overrun by gannon, or maybe something like that but that takes place in worlds from previous games depending on the timeline traveled to.
so basically Ocarina of Time?
I had in mind a more complex one that took place in the setting of muliple previous games (ie like in majora's mask's clock town (and other locations), early hyrule, as well as possible new locations) along with enemies from past, present, and perhaps unforseen enemies from titled yet to come
Oh man, that would be so cool! Imagine if this link has already stopped ganon once in his life, but ganon was reincarnated early, and he had to fight him again, because he realizes that even if he dies, there won’t be enough time for another hero to be born and grown up before countless deaths mar the land of hyrule. He really doesn’t want to fight again, but he feels like he has no choice.

Older or younger,
İt Doesnt matter,
Once a hero, always a hero,
You are unstopple Link,Go
Burak Akbay Yeah but older means Epona is dead ._. Therefore he can't spend hours on end trying to look cool on a horse THEREFORE MAKING HIM GIVE UP ON EVERYTHING AND VANISH INTO THE BLACKNESS OF AN UNUSED GAME
HYA HE HYA HA HE HYA HYA HE HA HYEA HYA EHA HA HYA HYEA HA HYEA HA HYEA HA HYEA
was heard through the hyrule field
Just to put out my inner HTTYD book fan...
A hero is forever.
*dies by a chicken tribe*
nah done this done that give me a break
Loss of life
Loss of love
Fire raining from above
Godess' sacred flame
Rebuilds worlds again
Nothing's left
All is gone
Reconstructing right and wrong
Let's rebuild the world anew
...Nobody said the storm would be of rain.
Azrael The Angel great lyrics
@@Keith-wu1ow indeed!
I know this is a metal cover, but that piano section is just *chef's kiss* perfection.
Part one: The Legend Lives.
This takes place after ocarina of time in the adult timeline.
After the defeat of Ganondorf, Link and Zelda were married. Zelda, by some cruel trick of fate was unable to have children, and when she eventually perished. Link was alone. After leaving the castle, Link lived for 14 years in the wilderness, and the kingdom continued on.
The panicked cries of a young woman ring out through the moonlit forest as a girl around 14 flees from stalfos. Link is having a nightmare about if he had failed to defeat Ganon, the screams of princess Zelda filling his dreams. Link wakes up in a cold sweat, yet the screams continue, he gets out of bed and takes up a sword and the hylian shield that are mounted on his wall, and takes out his tunic, folded neatly in his dresser, along with his items. The girl trips on a root and falls, the stalfos quickly gaining on her, suddenly, one falls to the ground in a splintered pile, the next getting an arrow through the back of its skull, the remaining two grab the girl and move into a moonlit clearing. A boulder that should be immovable is hurled into the clearing, nearly crushing the stalfos, Link steps into the clearing with his sword drawn, the courage and wisdom pieces of the triforce glowing on his hand, and the monsters charge, Link uses his free hand to shoot the long shot into the shield hand of one of the stalfos and rip it off, he ducks and flips as if he were still a young man, the monsters not getting a scratch on him, and link cleaves them both in 2. Link turns to the young lady, recognizing Zeldas eyes and says “it’s dangerous to go alone, come with me, princess.”
End of part one.
Part two: The Return of the Hero
Zelda had been on her own for a month, they had never been so fast or coordinated, they were growing stronger, no, He was growing stronger.
Link led the young girl through the woods without a word, his silent demeanor had changed little since his youth, he only said what was worth saying.
“Hey, where are we going?” Zelda asked.
While a fair question, Link didn’t have an answer worth saying, so he said nothing.
“Who are you?” Zelda asked after a time.
“Link.” While technically an answer, it wasn’t a particularly helpful one.
“Why did you save me?” Zelda asked, becoming increasingly annoyed with the old man’s avoidance of conversation.
Link had no answer to this that he could put a finger on, the night could play tricks and he usually ignored anything that wasn’t close. He said nothing.
“Okay, what is your deal, you have said a total of ten words to me in the entire time I’ve known you, you somehow know I’m the princess, and is that a royal wedding ring? Where did you get that?”
“From a wedding.” Link said. The memories of Zelda and him in their youth flooding back. They brought hyrule into a golden age with their leadership, and helped all live in peace. He remembered the day that he was married, the extravagant decor and beautiful music were surely nice, but Zelda was all he truly cared about. Snapping back into the present, they had arrived at their destination, links old house in kokiri forest, link said,
“we’re here, take these.”
He threw the kokiri sword, the boomerang, and the slingshot at her.
He then added “we still have much to do, tell me, have you unlocked your potential as a safe yet?”
“What does that even mean?” Zelda asked
Link merely sighed and led them through the lost woods. The sound of an ocarina grew louder as they continued, until they reached a clearing with a girl who looked younger than zelda, playing a song.
“Who is that?” Zelda asked
“An old friend.” Link responded
End of part two
Note: I know I didn’t add all that much, but the chapter was already dragging on, so I thought it best to end it sooner rather than later. Expect a little bit of a wait for part three, school work is making it difficult to find the time to write this. Look forward to part three: Sage Of The Forest
Beautiful. Truly beautiful.
Nice story sans
make part 2!
Part 2?
Make a goddamn part two bro
I'd love to see a game with old link. I imagine he would be tired of fighting monsters and all, but at the same time, he just can't leave people to suffer.
Perfect music doesn't exi-
Ævdun Well its exist
Tokaku Seryuu Yeah, this, which is the point I was trying to get through
Ævdun You are totally rig-
I saw this comment as soon as 1:18 hit.
SilverAxis871 me too
Just brilliant! I dig the image of Link, and the sound is tasteful :)
This looks more like a mix of Reinhardt from Overwatch & Link because of the shield and obviously bis face
DerFürst shield and scar has to be reinhardt
BENJAMIN HOLLINGSED this could be a situation like in link to the past, but instead of your father dieing in the underground, its link, and you carry on the quest as his father
lol
That's Santa Claus in diguise??
Holy balls man...that is an epic looking Link, he's ready to go. Master Sword, Hylian Shield, Bow and quiver full of arrows, and a belt of throwing daggers. That would be an epic version of Link to play as, just a grizzled old man who is forced into being the hero cause no one else is brave enough or skilled enough to do the job so this time he's not taking any chances and has a few more weapons than exploration based items.
“Huh? Ganons back? Ugh, well I guess I gotta come out of retirement
Ah,divine testicle
Agreed, a warrior link with deep stories and puzzles that require fighting AND thinking. O wait im talking about botw...
Soldier captian: where did this storm come from!?!
Soldier Private: Sir our scouts spotted an old man whistling a tune seconds before this storm formed
Just imagine- link had thought his fighting days were over now that he was old, but then the calamity starts once again and the mighty forgotten legend comes back with a sick ass beard and a kick butt attitude
Tears of the kingdom 😂
Can we just make a fan comic where Link didn't use the shrine of resurrection, and instead wandered around regaining his strength over the 100 years of calamity? Or spent 30 years after the shrine of resurrection preparing to take out Ganon... or looking for a successor and finally saying "Well F*** it, if no one else is gonna fight Ganon I may as well come out of retirement..."
Tangent Well, he would have to survive the guardian attacks for him to not use the shrine of resurrection. But we can all dream now, can't we ;)
I fucking want that!
@@Erichverse you just gave me a theory... What if the old man in the first game was a old link
Dude, I love that idea you should pitch it to nintendo or something crazy like that! I would definately pay for it!
BRUH.
Go around
Go around
Man, I freaking love this town
Who’s this fucking guy?
What’s that thing and why?
Watch him go
This is wrong
But he knows my favorite song
Let’s all play the song
Song of Storms
First some wind
Then some rain
Then a fucking hurricane
We’re all gonna die
Time to say goodbye
Holy crap
What the shit
I am 12 and what is this?
We’re all gonna die tonight
MultiTsunayoshi sure
MultiTsunayoshi LOL i sing with your comment
Funny thing, Guru-Guru means "round and round" in Japanese, so basically the first two lines could loosely translate into his name - I wonder if BrandO knew that
FalKKonE Great music Though
MultiTsunayoshi I Actually like these lyrics
I remember whistling to this while playing botw... regret it highly, I was climbing a cliff. This song is so good that it actually creates storm in other games!
Song of Storms has been my favorite song of all time for many years. It’s amazing in its complex simplicity, and why I have the song prompt from OOT tattooed on my arm (with some simple artistic flare). This version is great!
I love how it gradually gets more complex until the metal came in. Super good!
imagine, An old grizzled link, on the verge of becoming the heroes shadow, (from twilight princess) picks up his sword one last time, not for hyrule, not for the world or any other, but for the sake of a single village, his post retirement home, attacked by bandits, wild monsters and a corrupted kingdom no longer under zeldas control, heavy taxes, mafia methods of collection and constant abuse of authority. A game where human enemies are more dangerous than any moblin or stalfos, BotW styled gameplay with less magical elements but it could work, it'd be a bit like majoras mask but with a central base of operations, more power based fighting given the grizzled age and old bones, stalfos gear being obtainable just to fit it into canon, the heroes shadow from twilight princess, could end up a bit like a fantasy version of a completed MGV, I hear Kojimas not with konami anymore.
It would be interesting to see what he could do with the franchise, but the overarching plot's already convoluted enough.
So in a way, Skyrim but Zelda
His bones are fine, I mean able to life way over 10000 tons is strong bones.
Linked Gears Legend: V
Soooo assassins creed but tloz?
I never knew I wanted Grandad link until now
I wonder if he would be the type to yell "GET OFF MY FIELD" or come at me with a sword
I would say lawn but.....
"I'm too old for this sh*t..."
both
More like "HYAAAAH!!!" Then carpet bombs his lawn for no reason.
@@themonsterunderyourbed.7620 with both this reply and this comment I now imagine old link screaming "HYAAAA" while throwing bombs at someone who got onto his field
Don't mind me, I came from a multiverse animation, which made me love this amazing cover.
Imagine the "original" Link not being able to protect the Princess.
With her giving him the Power of Wisdom with her dying breath,
he fled from Hyrule. Years later, he gets found in a cave by a young
boy reminding of himself. "What's your name?", the old man asked.
"My name is -Atreus- -Loki- Link.", answered the young one. The
old man stands up:"It's dangerous to go alone. Come with me!"
Starting: *_"God _**_-father-_**_ of War: Link"_*
He could maybe be the God of Courage? Yes God of War sounds cool, but that could be Ganondorf in the Twilight Kingdom (I don't remember exactly what the place in Twilight Princess where Link finds that time hero is called or where Ganondorf is sealed). Then Zelda, wherever she is, could be Goddess of Wisdom?
@@zetasans495 Oooh...Umm...Idk Bro..The reference might've went over you... Just sayin...
@@DenBed I get it, I think it's funny, I just think it doesn't totally fit in an actual case.
@@zetasans495 No no, You are totally right about it not fitting, I was just talking about that God Of War reference, I thought you might've not noticed that lol, My bad
Was listening to another song when this popped up. Immediately cancelled it and came here. No regrets. Even my birds are listening in awe^^
XD thank you!
You earned it, no need to thank me^^
Sand Katze i just did the exact same lol
birbs*
FalkKonE, what is this beautiful masterpiece????? First of all, you're giving leeway for any and every hurricane/tornado to WANT this playing while they go wild! Your covers are incredible, give their own personality within the musical phrases annnnnnnd they sound awesome to boot! Thanks for giving us (and me included 😄) these songs so that we may loop them for eternity! Keep it up, and those 50K subs will sneak up on you!
Haha, I imagine tornados listening to my arrangements XD
Thank you ^^
@@FalKKonE i picture this song as link's final stand against an army, civilians are dying, houses are burning, then from the ashes. link rises, looking *pissed* then proceeds to kill them all.
Coming here from the last Zelda Multiverse video, really glad he included that song.
This is... the most badass thing I've heard in a long time.
When it all kicked in, I was like... "YESSSSSSSSSSSSS SIRRRRRRRRR!"
Imagine a game where Link is old, but not just old, doubtful. Doubtful if he should keep fighting evil. Does it really make a difference? Defeat Ganon once, and he comes right back. Is it worth Link's time? Has he wasted his younger years? In this game, Link learns that a true hero doesn't just have courage, he has hope, an unwavering hope. Hope that someday, things will get better, if he just keeps fighting, keeps battling against the forces of evil.
Throughout most of the game, you play as a small group of ragtag young heroes, trying to take down Ganon (or maybe a new villain) and restore Hyrule. But, of course, this group is only able to delay the inevitable. Ganon becomes too powerful for them, and is threatening to plunge Hyrule into eternal darkness. Then, out of the shadows, the sound of a charging horse hits everyone's ears. Out of the shadows comes an old Link, armed with the Master Sword and a look of renewed determination. With the young group's help, they defeat Ganon!
You know what I love in this pic? It's the fact that we can see some of Link's stuff outside of his dimensional pockets and with that massive beard. OF COURSE THE BEARD
Thanks FalKKonE for the great remix!
If this pic proves anything even as an old man Link is still a badass.
Cheng Han the Squid brother doesnt get any more badass
Because of this picture, a want a game with link as an old man, not a child
_even_ ?
_especially_ !
You mean especially as an old man.
Bad ass
Everybody is talking about old link, but can't we all apreciate the beauty that is the beginning of this song
Old Man Link game for next Nintendo machine. And make it dark, so dark. Ganon's won, Zelda's dead, and Link, alive and questing so long after the Hero normally has won, is tired. Tired of the monsters, tired of the puzzles, tired of the misery and fear on the faces of the populace, he's just tired of it all. And at the end, Old Man Link stands victorious but wounded, a Hero to the masses, and he hands the Master Sword and his shield to a little boy we'd seen throughout the game in a gesture symbolic of a passing of the torch as we have no idea if Old Man Link will live much longer or if the boy will have need of the Hero's gear in days to come. Yeah, Old Man Link, with his epic beard and icy gaze, a grizzled veteran of too many battles, he's seen too many good, skilled soldiers and would-be heroes fall, lost too many friends and his true love who may or may not have been Zelda. Yeah, I'd play the hell out of that Zelda game. Oh, Nintendo would never do it, of course, but I can dream, damn it!
And make the gameplay like god of war
old or new god of war fight style?
@@jrex0522 yes
.... so old it is
Botw and twilight princess called (the two darkest weve ever gotten in the zwelda series
"His battle waged on for centuries. From a mere child to a young man. Link fought to protect Hyrule... he defeated Ganon, he defeated Ganandorf and many others who try to endanger the kingdom he loved. But he did not account for one enemy who knew his every move. A clone of him made entirely from the darkness of the evil he vanquished. Defeated, Link could only watch beaten and bloody as Hyrule was destroyed... Dark Link sparred his life only saying a few words before he left "when you are worthy of strength once more... then we shall settle this, brother." Time would pass. The former hero of hyrule got older, and trained from each new adventure to get stronger. Being worthy of strength once more. He picked up his faithful sword and shield. And journeyed towards his destiny. No longer a mere child with a dream to be a hero. Now a veteran out for revenge."
good story not the best fit tho
also why do i feel like you were expecting more likes
@@DapperCinema I wasn't, just figured why not have fun with the oldman Link idea.
Old link is so awsome look at him I saw kratos I saw Dante and I am now seeing old link now he is all grow up
@@dreadarashiwhitevoidblackh4647 he's part of the club now
@@symbiotegod2069 yeah
"Come the clouds,
Come the rain,
Now we form a Hurricane,
as we play the Song Of Storms"
Man on the internet
this is by far my favorite version of this song. the slightly different melody of the female singer and the contrast with the electric guitar really builds the feel of a storm. i love it man
Ganon is rising once again. A young man In a green tunic goes to the village Elder to ask what can be done.
The old man looks at the boy and then rises from where he had sat and walks toward an old chest. As he walks he mentions that he is too old to fight the king of darkness, So he must stay here in the village and help how he can.
As he opens the chest he mentions how the young man was very brave to come to him despite the dangers in the darkness.
From chest he pulls out a sword, a family relic. As he turns around, young man notices faded green cloth hidden under the old man's robes
The old man offers him the sword and says, "It's dangerous to go alone. Take this."
This is the reason they call him Hero Of TIme... He will fight even time to save the others... LOVE THIS!!! GREAT JOB!!!
I love how simple it starts and that with every new start a new sound is added to make it even more baeutiful than the original
I love it. And in the best... The music and the picture are in perfect combination. Old Link is charisimatic. We can see an great evolution in his old years.... And he's left-handed.
Hyunkel HURASHIMA link is always left handed.
Hyunkel HURASHIMA holy shit you're right he is left handed. I guess you have to be able to use both hands at a moment's notice, kinda makes sense
@@septicbile2901 except in smash bros, and i think BOTW, which makes me depressy wessy
*Happy left handed noises*
In this timeline Link plays a mystical axe with strings that summons natural disasters.
Zelda is a cannibal valkyrie.
And Gannon speaks solely in explosions.
@Connor France lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
YESSSSSSS!!!!!
id pay 15 bucks a ticket to see that!
NGL that sounds metal af
The last one cracks me. I've watched to many memes compilation bruh 💀
"I love the sound of evil in the morning" famous last words
Connecting two very diffrent artstyles of music sounds insane at first but if you let it happen that is exactly what you could describe it with... absolutly insane
Song of Storms
Lyrics
First the wind,
Then the rain,
All becomes a hurricane.
Twisters sweep the land,
Rising tides hit the sand.
Feel the rain,
Feel the snow,
Feel the wind its mighty blow.
Let's all sing the song of the storms.
Sing a wish,
Have no fear,
Have a will and make it clear.
Bravery has no end,
Always reascend.
Feel the pain,
Feel the cold,
Live the hell that makes us bold,
Let us sing the song of the storms.
All the life
All the pain
All of death is darkened rain
Grim fates from the seas
Hear the song of pleas
All of hope
Is a lie
Long ago all hope has died
Please have mercy on our souls
please have hope
please don’t die
save our land and all our lives
all times come to end
souls shall reascend
hear our cries
hear our plea
the song of storms shall make them bleed
YOU ARE OUR FINAL HOPE
Truly awesome.
This song is one of my favorite and your arrange is godlike.
This is the REAL link the one who fell asleep for 100 YEARS and woke up to save hyrule
"My courage never forgotten my sword may be old it can still slay a foe my shield is old it still can stop a blow"-Old link
Song of storms (my version)
Through the storm through the rain I can never love again raging from the sky Hyrule from on high in the dark of the night Link will win Ganon’s fight this is the song of storms fade to black Ganon’s back Link’s the hero of our past raging from the sky Hyrule from on High in the dark of the night Link will win Ganon’s fight this is the song of storms through the storm through the rain I can never love again raging from the sky Hyrule from on high in the dark of the night Link will win Ganon’s fight this is the song of storms …
These are my Lyrics to song of storms what do you think I tried to make up Lyrics for Song of storms
Dude that image is f'ing epic! I so want an old-man Link game now!
I guarantee you'll get the 100k Subs at the end of the year! You're just way to good!
With the current acceleration even I think that's possible.
Kinda scared, actually :o
Don't be scared! Be happy!!
With great power comes...
... great work over small time.
P = W / t
Ah fuck it I'm a physicist ok
You should do the Gerudo Valley theme, or the Hidden Village theme from Twilight Princess :)
Fuck do all the Zelda songs just because they're awesome.
Ah~! This was my favorite song in Ocarina of Time~!
I was so excited to see you covered this! I'm not at all a morning person, but I feel I've gained a lot of energy from this. ~u~
The problem now is... Instead of being stuck here doing nothing because I'm tired, I'm stuck here doing nothing because I keep replaying the song. @_@ Nooooo...!
right click -> loop, I guess? :)
Dam one of my favourite video game song, i used to sit in the windmill listening to this song for hours when i was younger
A hero not only of courage, but also of wisdom.
Really love the piano line at 1:56. wish I would of thought of something like that for my cover, props for that burst of genius man
When Santa becomes so badass he changes his red for Green, his sleigh for a sword and Shield and has to save Christmas from Ganon. Yeah i went there!!
Dude... Where have you been all my life?
Welcome to heavens my dear. =3
1:23 when your friend spawns super calamitas, the moon lord, and The Devourer of Gods at the same time
@Totally not the flash :3 with death mode as a norm thing
"In the light, we thrive and conquer our fears. In the dark, we face those fears yet again. But in the end, we all return to ourselves."
WOW, this needs to be added to a game. This is an awesome twist on an absolute classic song! Nice work!
This gives me an idea. Make a game with old link, he has the ocarina, but there is only one song, the song of age. Basically it allowed link to become three different ages, kid link, adult link, and old link. It would be used to solve different puzzles, for instance kid link is much shorter, so you play the song and kid link is used to fit into smaller places, but kid link's attacks aren't as strong as adult or old links. See what I mean? Old link is also bigger and stronger, so he would be used to push boulders, step on larger buttons, and defeat stronger enemies, and then adult link is in the middle. He's smaller than old link, so he can fit into some smaller places, he's stronger than kid link, so he has a better attack, and can push/pull bigger objects. That would be fucking awesome
so kinda like the team mechanic of sonic heroes interesting
what if it was only young and old one
I believe you have to be kid link in Ocarina of time for the temple of time. But it's not through an ocarina song but through time travelling at the church you initially time travelled. No old link though.
I agree with everything you said but with an alteration for the Elder Link. Elder Link isn't as fast or as strong as the other two, BUT he has advanced knowledge of items that allow him to use them in unique ways (additional abilities and such). I would also implement a charisma/fame type system. For example, Link would have greater or lesser fame allowing him additional interactions or influences on NPCs; this can be good and bad depending on what has occurred.
Elder Link's time period is dark and twisted, caused by something his younger version missed or hadn't realized where he caused a series of events that resulted in corruption, now he lives every day trying to fix the wrongs of the past.
As the princess sing across the land our hero awakens and learns the shred of time with his princess by his side nothing can beat their tasty jams
This is BEAUTIFUL
"OK. GANNON. IT'S TIME WE FINISH THIS" *Thunder clacks as this song starts the battle."
This is one of the the greatest things that I've listened to
