We really need a speculation thread!
You mean this?
It could be Skyloft, Sky City or some sort of airship.
Oh yeah! That's it!! Yeah I wonder what it is...
Considering both were in development around the sometime, I highly doubt that.

I saw you made pretty good screenshots with a lot of comparaison in other threads, I do think you've the content to make good OP.
Give it a shot, I wasn't sure either if my thread will be locked or not.
Or THAT! Wow!
I imagine there isn't any problem in making one speculation thread, then? I will prepare myself!

I mean architecturally it resembles Eldin way more, but everyone always seems to forget that Lake Hylia had its own big bridge too before this one in BotW.

I think you've your chance!
I look foward to read your thread
Done
ha, awesome, that was quick thanks.
Ganon eventually became so powerful that he began merging timelines. the shiekh developed advanced technology and have been fighting a war in the past by sending people and technology back in time. after a lot of research, they decide to send both Link and Zelda. at the start of the game, Link is waking from his stasis after going back thousands of years. he will later unite with Zelda, who was woken up somewhere else. together, they have to destroy Ganon before he destroys the future
this is our bridge to a futuristic or modern-esque Zelda game.

Has anyone discussed this?

I think there is some evidence to a connection to the NES Zeldas. Also in Zelda 2, Hyrule was divided into two large landmasses with an ocean submerging half of Hyrule.

Don't know why, but I wasn't expecting to see a reflection on the lake at this distance.
no prob I was actually in the process of making it right before your post
Might as well post the Tony Hawk one as well:

TP was released a year after SotC.
I'll be honest, I've never played Zelda II and my experience with the first is extremely limited, so I appreciate the insight there. I figured with them referencing the NES connection that it might be possible that it's in this timeline. Hell, I even tried to piece it together that the Link in this game is the one from Zelda I + II, but I've got nothing.
The pieces for a WW timeline seem to be more in place, though.

Imagine if this Zelda had multi-player.

I dig the idea of all three timelines collapsing on eachother.. Maybe we'll get to fight multiple Gannon's.. Maybe we'll meet up with multiple links.

Wow. They really are dissing the Gamepad here. Agreed, no screen on NX controller confirmed!
was just thinking that today, depending on how it was done, some co-op could be sick.
Wasnt it somewhat hinted at in the old reveal slides?

Oh there's warping right from the start. Expected something like that, sure it was mentioned before but I didn't see it yet

Other than references to an ancient sea that's been unflooded and the Koroks, I'd say there's very little indication that it's in the WW timeline. Especially when a major part of that story was leaving Hyrule behind and in ST they established a new Hyrule. As well as the fact that the Master Sword is in a much different location. I'd say of all time lines it kinda best seems to establish a connection to the NES Zeldas. There is some resemblance to Zelda 2's overworld and Breath of the Wild's. Zelda 2's Hyrule is also the largest version of Hyrule until BotW. Also the old man has made appearances in the majority of the titles in the "Fallen Link" timeline.

I'd imagine that if they did those lines voiced, then there will probably be some cutscenes with VA. But you never know, could be a super tease.

Thanks! Makes sense if it's all on ZR.
Interesting to see Jump is on the top of the diamond. Last game I played with that was Shadow of the Colossus.
I believe they said the important characters in the story will have VA, except Link.
So unfortunately most NPCs won't have it, unless they change their mind.

Reminds me of Dragon's Dogma, which is a very good thing. The more this game copies from the GOAT third person combat the better!
It would be awesome if you could attack while you climb.
