@@4wheal In Skyward Sword Impa indirectly refers to Zelda's soul as being the soul of the goddess around when Ghirahim steals it for Demise. It's heavily implied in multiple games that the powers of the goddess are attached to the essence or "soul/spirit" of the goddess. Zelda is both a descendant of the goddess, as well as houses her soul(making her a reincarnation like Link). There's also multiple games where Zelda still possesses the power/essence of Hylia where the royal bloodline has been cut off/she couldn't be a direct blood relative. The series uses so many different terms for souls and reincarnation that it's honeslty hard to keep track of, but in-game and in supplemental materials all signs point to her housing the goddess's soul. It's also likely why Hylia never reappears outside of/separate from Zelda. All this is also backed up by the presence of other directly reincarnated deities(Din, Nayru, Farore)

@@ThisCatIsBored Of crouse the Zelda from Skyward Sword has the spirit of the goddess within her she is the mortal incantation of Hylia something i have never denied and even said in the frist post. What i am saying is that none of the other Zelda are actually her reborn sinple her descendants who have carried on her bloodline thats it. None of the Zelda are rencarnations of each other hell in Zelda 1 and 2 you even find out they were 2 zelda alive at the same time whitch wouldn't make sense if they were rencarnations of each other. Hylia is outright said to be a serprate person in BotW and Totk as she has returned to being a full-on goddess dispute there being a Zelda alive and well. None of the games hints or claims that Zelda or the royal family have been cut off from the original or have been restarted in some way. Not every link is actually a rencarnation as the one in Wind waker has no connection to the past ones moatly because the spirit of the hero left the adult timline, and he basically creates a new one after proving hinself worthy. Where did you get the idea that the golden goddes are reborn from as nothing in the series even hints at that and hell Echoes of Wisdom if anything massive disproves that even more.

I find it very interesting that Link is actually mute in this game. He's not just intentially quiet. The game isn't just conveniently not showing us him talking. He's actually incapable of speaking because of his contact with the rifts as a child. It's a cool choice to take the make him straight up medically nonverbal after so many years of him not talking just being a quirk. They've been going out of their way to canonize Link's silence a lot lately. They had a reason in BOTW/TOTK as well. It shows me that his silence is something the devs actively care about being part of Link's character. Totally theory territory here but I do feel like they will have Link talk in this game at the end. They did say that his ability to speak might be restored when the rift situation gets fixed, so I could see them giving him a line to thank Zelda. It's as good an opportunity as ever given he's not the protagonist for once.

@javiervasquez625 2 ай бұрын

It irks me when people say Link shouldn't talk, because he does. Often. Even ignoring dialogue options and hand waves. We just don't hear it, in the same way we don't hear Zelda talk in THIS game. And even when he doesn't, he has a clear and consistent personality: brave and strong, but not too cool to wander into random caves or collect bugs. I do hope he gets at least ONE line of dialogue, but I can also see the B-team not wanting to take that risk.

I've really been impressed with Echos of Wisdom so far. I'm pretty far into the game and I've greatly enjoyed how many callbacks to previous games there are. Remixes (or a few notes) of previous songs imbedded in new songs, references to old characters or locations, it's really a game made for Zelda fans. I found particular delight in the choice of music for the horse racing minigame in this game's ranch. I really missed all these Zelda series touches in the Breath of the Wild games.

There are layers to "mutism" in the series, I guess that's confusing. Link traditionally speaks at least in all dialogue options we've had. In BOTW it's implied he said things to people, but he became less expressive as a way to carry his burden. In EOW though, he literally got his ability to speak taken away, while Zelda falls into the traditional case of technically speaking but we can't hear it.

@@richardgurney1844 I wouldn't think about it too hard if I were you. Regions change compass direction quite a bit in these games. Zora's Domain is all over the place usually. Death Mountain is pretty consistently in the east/northeast, with this game being a particular exception. Gerudo Desert is usually in the west. Lake Hylia is also all over the place. OoT and Twilight Princess, Lost Woods is in the south yet in most other games it's in the north or northwest. Regions like Hebra Mountain or Faron Swamp/Wetlands is game specific in the specific entries where they make an appearance. Hyrule Field is pretty consistently in the center of the map and features LonLon Ranch if that location is in that entry. Pretty damning evidence that the timeline thing is a bunch of bs and reaffirms that each Zelda game is truly a legend, in that it's a loose set of stories that get lost in translation as those stories get told over and over.

I’ve been very impressed with how Echoes of Wisdom is with all its references while still feeling completely new. For example, while the layout of several areas is very similar to Link to the Past (which is cool to see some continuity), it feels far different from a Link Between Worlds’ way of remixing that Hyrule (and by extension, another “Dark” World/Still World connected to it). Not only is the map expanded to give us new areas, they tie it in with prior things to give us a sense of not just map continuity but LORE continuity; such as a Gerudo saying that the flying spinning tiles of ALttP were actually invented by ancient Gerudo to keep out intruders. So even things that have existed in old games for years without much explanation are being given rehashed explanations and lore, which is super cool to see them honor their past games and legacies more directly this way.

There's no "main game graphics" in Zelda, the teams never are scared to do something new visually (and EoW is literally a main game).

I can't stop thinking about the insane lore implications made by the post-5th dungeon cutscene (spoilers below) Because the three Golden Goddesses created the world as a prison to seal Null within, that makes him an entity even more ancient than *Demise,* the series' main "primordial evil incarnate" figure I'm curious about Null's relation with Demise, considering the latter rose from "the depths of the earth". Could he have emerged from one of Null's rifts?

@Diogo_7237 2 ай бұрын

@@mjkhoi6961 It's ok I finished the game 1 week ago. We fans theorize about these things but the devs themselves probably just make random lore stuff, I don't think they care about these implications. The goddesses created the world to imprison the Null, but we killed it like it was nothing, one of the easiest final bosses I've seen.

Also, I don’t know if anyone else noticed, but when you’re running from the rifts in the beginning once you take control of Zelda, the sound effect/song is very reminiscent of the battle music in twilight princess when you’re fighting monsters of twilight. I found that fitting because the rifts are very twilight realm like.

Wright and Lefte are likely also a continuation of the recurring references to Will Wright in the handheld Zelda games. (He’s been referenced in Link’s Awakening as Dr. Write, and in Oracle of Seasons and Minish Cap as Dr. Left)

@bodacity 2 ай бұрын

My favorite "Easter egg" is when, just before the final boss battle, Tri says it looks really dangerous up ahead, "but I know I'll be okay with you, Zelda." That reminded me of the opening scenes in Tears of the Kingdom when Zelda said they should go farther down toward the source of the gloom, "but I know I'll be safe with you, Link."

FIRST DUNGEON SPOILER The fact that the might ore that link’s sword is made of is from the rifts is rly interesting. The constant swirls rly remind me of the zonai and Shiekah tech. Perhaps since Luburry seems to have no idea what it is and Impa and him seem to be the only Shiekah that look like and decorate like the ones in BOTW, that this takes place before BOTW? Or maybe the rifts transcend timelines or whatever. Idk bruh I just like theorizing.

I love that so many people around the small towns know Link and are worried about him. Some people say they never even saw Zelda, but Link is like a friend of all the common folk, while so far I've only seen people from Castle Town talk like they know the princess (granted, I'm still pretty early into the game). Just a neat detail.

Just finish the game yesterday. Had a lot of fun! For some reason, i can imagine a DLC/New game + where we can play Link. I mean, duh, everyone have the same thoughts, but hear me out. The way we play Zelda, i felt that we play Link at the end of his adventure. I mean, we start the game and the very first thing we do is to beat Ganon with 20 hearts. By watching this video and the fact that Link can sense every new rift, we can play the adventure of Link, like a prequel where we can beat all the dungeons in "normal world" We can find new items, since when we play Zelda, we didn't find anything, since Link had already got the items from the dungeon. I mean, there is potential for a bigger and long adventure for the game.

Something I noticed is that the map on Echoes is actually ALTTP’s map with just a few added things. If you look closely with a map side by side you can see the Desert Dungeon, Kakariko and the Lost woods, as well as the ancient ruins next to Hyrule castle. Also if you go through the right of the castle some bushes are in the same positions as the secret entrance in ALTTP
