Happy Zelda 35th anniversary everyone! I was a bit stressed because this video is a bit darker than what I'm used to do ^^'A big thank you to the voice actors and the composer! They did an outstanding job here! All the links are in the description :) You can also listen to all the music composed by Mosik on her channel as well. Thank you so much everyone! It was 6 months of intense work every day with the worst PC haha and I'm really happy with the result! If you guys want to support the channel and see the work in progress for Chapter 2 the link to join the Patreon community is in the description as well. By the way did you catch all the diferent references? 😉 I wish you all an amazing day! May the goddess of Hylia watch upon you!❤️

That happened in Ocarina of time as well where you had to run away from Ganon because the building was collapsing. So, it's more like a combination of the two.

[@Rollbrand370]

Seeing fan projects about Ocarina of time makes me miss that timeline so much. Wish they would make a third game.

[@elvampe13]

I miss the time when OoT was the origin story of the entire series. Example, I loved realizing that the tradition in which all future Links wear green tunics began due to OoT Link being raised by the Koriri. But then the mediocre Skyward Sword comes in and throws a wrench in things.

[@firionkaiser8291]

@@elvampe13 I mean the likes of Minish Cap kinda already put a wrench in that since they confirmed long before Skyward Sword that Minish Cap was before Four Swords and was the earliest game in the story of Zelda at the time. Hell that was the first game at the time where Link got his green cap on screen even though SS Link would get the cap right away and that's before MC. I guess that just means certain Links just stopped wearing the cap long after SS hence the Hero of Men and Minish Cap. All SS really did was confirm that Link and Zelda reincarnate/are tied to ever lasting struggle. Wind Waker and Spirit Tracks would be the games that actually make sense when it comes to later Link's wearing green.

[@elvampe13]

​@@firionkaiser8291 It's a shame Nintendo was reluctant on changing the overall design of their Links up until Breath of the Wild. They could have featured any outfit other than a green tunic for Minish Cap in order to not clash with OoT's established lore. I'm less willing to forgive SS in comparison to MC though. SS forced many elements into the lore that I'm not a fan of. The Master Sword was once an annoying robot girl. Ganon was created by a disappointing antagonist. There's apparently a very important goddess called Hylia alongside the iconic Triforce goddesses all along despite no mention of her in all prior Zelda games. It all comes off as poor writing.

[@firionkaiser8291]

@@elvampe13 Thats bound to happen. OoT staying as the very beginning of the series was practically impossible especially when you consider there was already things happening before its events mentioned in the game itself. Though considering how early in the series Zelda was when MC released, changing Link's tunic seemed extremely doubtful anyway. And yeah games taking place prior will do that. Some will like it and some won't. Just like the legends in most of the stories, information will either get lost to time or get altered which is why I'm not surprised from a historical point that Hylia isn't mentioned at all considering she was lesser goddess compared to Nayru, Farore, and Din. Which is why when people point out retcons, I tend point out that most of the backstories are mere legends that are most likely not accurate. Thanks to SS you can literally question some of the details in the Great Flood. BotW remembers her but hell BotW is also so far in the future that all the stories of the games are either seen as actual legends or straight up myths. Still it was pretty clear there was more stories to tell even before OoT Link. You most likely already know the info I'm about to say next but the one problem I've noticed in the fandom is that people seem to think that certain games were supposed to be the origins of Link's clothes or Link in general and this isn't exactly a bad thing mind you but it does create some confusion when later titles prove otherwise. For instance the main intent of OoT was to see the origins of the Ganon we see in ALttP when he was still known as Ganondorf which we do as well as the events of, Imprisoning War they messed this intent up with the creation of Wind Waker, Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess which is why they created the Downfall Timeline as part of the lore to keep the original intent since ALttP Ganon and OoT Ganondorf are the same guy. It was tather that than being the origin of Link's green tunic (even if it did set origin for Wind Waker specifically on Outset Island). Same with MC, people initially believed that was supposed to be the origins of his green cap, but that was more of mechanic for the game if anything. Though you can call it the origins of how MC Link specifically got his cap. Similar to OoT, the main intent of Minish Cap was to show the origins of Vaati and the origins of the Master Sword rather than Link SS is the only game that really was intended to explain a few lore points that explain why every in Zelda even happens. Despite that Aonuma has indicated that a game can happen before SS which leads me to believe that manga the zelda team commissioned for the Historia may hold some truth which is why I considered it canon. Since even Akira (one of the creators of some of the Akira Zelda mangas) said that theybwere tasked to create "the first zelda". I'd assume the details would be somewhat different from the manga if they made a game for it. At the end of the day. Zelda will be Zelda. I apologize, I didn't mean to make my reply so long. I'm just really passionate about this series.

[@elvampe13]

@@firionkaiser8291 No worries about the long reply. I'm just dead set on OoT being such a well done origin story. It's a tragic story with a bitter sweet ending that makes it so fitting as the very first in the timeline (as it initially was when the game first came out). Beneath the surface, Oot Link suffers so MUCH compared to all other Links and he sets the standard for all future heroes. Meanwhile, SS Link is flying through the skies, in a very colorful world and gets a super happy ending. His adventures brings nowhere near the same amount of emotions as OoT imho. I recommend watching a video called "OCARINA OF TIME - A Masterclass In Subtext". It's a fantastic video that explores all the layers beneath the game's surface story-telling.

[@abit359]

The models and the shading and nearly every aspect of the animation are absolutely perfect. This seriously looks like a studio project.

Oh... Link talks... But he just has so little to say, it's as if he's not there at times, and then there's those times when his actions speak louder than screaming it at someone like a banshee. For example; the time when Yiga Clan attacked Zelda on the road, Link stepped in and fought bravely, a blood frenzied look on his face. It screaming *this is MY girl, HELL OFF HER* wasn't enough to explain the expression at the time. Just the look on his face would be a dead giveaway about Link's feelings towards Zelda, even if he was slightly annoyed by his sweetheart at the time.

You have no clue how much I love that their ears move with their emotions 😭💕 It just has the most canon feeling for Hylians idk why.

[@Ilikebread879]

It's so cute 🥰

[@link-jx5qb]

this is absolutely 100% what hylians do

[@whitelock1258]

99.99% of the Zelda Movie's budget will be spent on animating the Hyleans' ear movements

[@RulerMichael]

Ganondorf's voice actor reminded me of Jamieson Price, just the right kind of dark tone for him. Excellent work!

What’s everyone’s hope if something get’s announced on the 21st?

[@definitelyacabbagefarmer5996]

Botw2, minish cap remake

Wind waker

Twillight Princess or a Remake of Ocarina of Time (using something like Unreal engine)

Really wanting to play Majora again with my little bro.

[@anonymousperson1706]

Welp, hope y’all enjoy Skyward Sword!

[@henjin4671]

At 2:24 I could see Zelda saying *AND THATS WHEN THE FIRE NATION ATTACKED* But ey keep up the good work You better make a part 2 I can't wait

[@romahawk3125]

I don't even know where to start but I can tell you that this was LEGENDARY! This is what comes out when you are passionate about something. You guys showed what it means to really care for this series and delivered an outstanding tribute for it's 35th anniversary. The amount of details, all those musical nuances that mimic the original soundtracks and last but not least: THE ANIMATIONS! How did you do that :)? I was hugely disappointed when I found out how Nintendo wasted this oppurtunity with some gimmicky content reveal(except BotW 2) and a cash grabbing port that nobody needs(just play the original goddamn and see through it). This is the kind of content that we fans deserve and you took care of it. I myself really liked the part at 13:56. This image of Link and Zelda facing their ultimate nemesis with the Temple of Time right next to them was absolutely exhilarating(I can see this as a desktop background already :)). Well, thank you for this... ...and may the journey continue...

[@hojaunisaunders610]

The part where link touch zelda on her shoulder the way how she turned around fast jumpscared me 😂

[@slexpyhead7550]

I can't wait for part 2 this is sooo gooood Congrats RwanLink!! Your work is really awesome!!!

[@Pisigastew]

Omigosh did rwanlink really make this all by himself?! That's so amazing.

[@webhostmastered8368]

Nintendo should have featured this for the 35 anniversary.

[@chadpeterson5698]

But nope, we have to celebrate the 35th Anniversary ourselves.

[@fishfish213]

Idk if this was done by one person or a team but oh my GOSH THIS WAS AMAZING. The time and dedication it takes to write the script, render the scenes, animate the characters, even the LIGHTING, takes so much work and talent!! I've only played in cinema 4d and illustrate a web comic, but I couldn't imagine taking on the task to create something so beautifully done. This deserves all the praise and recognition!!

[@Jo_Fischer.]

Just perfect! The story of OoT. Just finish it and that was EPIC!

[@dove4175]

Damn those re-deads! Amazing job with this though, even though I don't like the downfall timeline.... (RIP Time :( ) still excited to see your take on it.

[@djohnmustard2356]

I need a current gen Ocarina of Time now.

[@kik0le]

That was surprisingly good. Anyone can tell that this was made with pure passion for the Zelda series. Subbed for chapter 2

[@luiviltov]

Very impressive. I'm not feeling Zelda's voice acting, but I liked everything else. Nintendo should show some more love to their properties just like fans like you do.

[@ultraspinalki11]

I personally didn't feel Ganondorf's voice. But still an impressive effort overall.

[@rehydratedganondorf4244]

@@ultraspinalki11 12:09 watch what u say boii.

[@santiagomedrano8531]

agreed he sounds more like Ganondorf Quagmire

[@SilverHunterN]

In my opinion, Zelda's voice is good, and Ganan/Wizzro voice is quite good. If you think the VAs here isn't good, check Playstation 1 version Resident evil 1 voice acting. All the characters voices in original RE1 is so bad! Heck, Megaman X4's English voices is really bad as well.

[@matthewmuir8884]

Until the mention of demons, did anyone else think the one-eyed thing was the Poe Salesman?

Duuuuuuude this left me speechless and crying out of excitement, it is an epic masterpiece, very beautiful and amazing omg you are a total genius!!

[@sofigzz3163]

Amazing job RwanLink, you had me on edge for the entire video. The voices were spot on and the story almost drove me to tears. Keep up the awesome job and thank u for doing this. NINTENDO HIRE THIS MAN ASAP

[@TheRealSephiroth]

Love zelda, This just popped up in my recomended and i got one word to say... SUBSCRIBED!!!

[@Dug88]

I grew up playing the hell out of Legend of Zelda and Adventure of Link on the NES. Nintendo seemingly tossing the classic games aside in the downfall timeline made me sad. Your awesome video makes me happy and makes Nintendo's downfall timeline more acceptable to me.

[@aramisbetances572]

Honestly this looks great, I thought it was an official Zelda movie lol

[@GalacticStarForge42]

Can't wait to watch this, sure it'll look amazing

[@noahtheguy1828]

This the closest thing were gonna get to a zelda movie

[@Melonberr]

i am absolutely in awe,,, and just when i thought it couldnt get better the redeads came in ( not to mention the voice acting was phenomenal OMG )

[@sebastianperger1344]

The sickest video ive seen on YT. Never been so hyped and wished for more ♡ Please keep it up

[@therhino8302]

2:24 then, everything changed when the fire nation attacked...

[@sofigzz3163]

Hyped!!! This is gonna be so AMAZING 🤩

[@atenmusic1027]

Hey!! This was really good. Could use a bit more TLC but you are well on your way and I really liked the story. I've worked on sound design and sound effects for a few games/animations and to me, the vocals, ambience and music sound like they are clashing a bit. As well, the vocals sound like they have the high end boosted a tad too much. Honestly though, these sound issues are rather easy fixes by changing the EQ to match each other and separate them. Personally, I use the LUFS system for this. However, there are many ways to achieve the Cinematic quality you're looking for. The skinning weights are a bit off too, such as, Zelda's dress looks like it freaks out as she moves. That though, is well out of my expertise so I can't give an input on that at all. Like I said though, this is good and has me hooked!! Glad I gave this a chance. Stay safe and I wish you the best of luck on this project. I can't wait to see more :)

[@calculusfalconerd]

Wow this video was absolutely amazing! Animation, voice actors, music was awesome! Keep up the good work! 😃

[@Cara_san_Art]

My my my you are getting better and better at animating!!!! The light, the effects, all is very awesome! The movement are way more fluid, only some part of Zelda dress are sometimes bouncing wierdly at one or two secs but not counting that, it's great You did a wonderful work and good job to the voice actors and music composer!!! Thank you for your work, can't wait to see part 2!

[@femoflight2212]

That was brilliant! I’ve wished for something like this for years! Brilliant

[@TopGun6986]

Wow, that's a whole other level of amazing. So good!! Keep those coming they look wonderful and it's so awesome to see this period of the timeline come to life! Pretty sure Nintendo doesn't care about the timeline at all but we fans do and this is a love letter for all of us.
