That sounds like a great idea actually.
Zelda's on like it's 7th reboot or something.
Zelda doesn't get reboots. Each entry just doesn't have anything to do with previous entry 😀
Oh yeah, I meant in general, not counting the direct sequels.
I agree about the timeline, this is just to make fans happy. They make whatever game they want to make and then someone later decides where to put it in this chart.
But even if you do believe in the timeline, there are still no reboots, since it's all in a shared timeline (excluding BoTW and TotK, but we can call them a spin-off for now) 😀
They definitely do. The old skeleton in Twilight Princess who teaches you sword fighting is the previous Link. Most games are set in either the branch where you win or the branch where you lose in Ocarina of Time.
Interesting.
My comment was more of a lighthearted quip then a deeply though argument, but while we are going down that rabbit hole, if that skeleton was previous link, then it means it's a continuation, not a reboot.
Oh yeah. I was countering the part about them not being related.
