But that sounds more fanfiction than canon. And how would someone get the whole Triforce? Ganondorf, Vaati, Yuga, Malladus, etc, couldn’t. Wind Waker Ganondorf is underneath the sea, how would anyone fuse with him?
It's not the Mirror of Twilight. It's a fragmented stone monument.What seems to be the Mirror of Twilight and a lot of areas in other games appear in BotW. Koholint Island and Arbiter's Grounds being two of them.
In addition, the outfit descriptions are written as if referencing myths and legends, including the one that is not an amiibo outfit and is for BotW. The only way we can argue those amiibo outfits are breaking the fourth wall and noncanon is to include an outfit that is part of the base game and does not require an amiibo to access as part of that list, as well as to discount NPC reactions to an amiibo-added animal. And there is no indication, from Nintendo or otherwise, that they are noncanon.
In addition, as Pollux notes, BotW's Hyrule combines features from all three timelines into a singular whole.
A timeline merger is still the explanation that requires the least amount of unanswerable questions
so how does Hyrule get flooded only 1/3 of the time, and how does Link beat Ganondorf, but also loose, but also never have said battle? A merger would require a lot of explaining.
What I mean by the DLC outfits breaking the fourth wall is that if you look at the journal that Misko leaves behind, it has ''EX'' written at the end of it. Now, to us, the players, the ''EX'' denotes extra content included in the DLC, but it has no verifiable in world meaning, which brings the canoncity of those outfits into question. The set of the Wild, however, does not have any of those going against it; it is something you pbtain ingame without outside materials, and it doesn't break the fourth wall, so there's no reason to say it's non canon. The PotFS is non canon as well, and for the same reason.
It having features that other timelines haven't seen until now doesn't confirm anything. Remember Tingle was exclusive to the CT...until he wasn't. Especially since there's in universe explanations for most of the things such as Koroks(there's a picture of one in Link's house in ALBW) and Rito(their different features and culture imply that they are a different species, like River Zoras and Ocean Zoras)
Sorry, but no way.
1. How does Hyrule both exist and not exist at the same time?
2. How is Ganon Ganondorf I, Ganondorf II, and gone altogether at the same time, despite CaC confirming he's Ganondorf I?
3. How are we supposed to believe that the MS is both beneath the sea and still in an unsunken Old Hyrule in BotW, despite only seeing it in the latter condition?
4. How did the merge happen?
5. Wouldn't the game mention a huge cataclysmic merging event?
6. What exactly happened in the Era of the Hero of Time in the world of BotW? (We know that the sages were awakened, so that rules out the Child Timeline)
7. Why doesn't anyone in Hyrule know about the merge?
Just to start.
Not to get overanalytical but the Wild set says "crafted for" whereas the others mention already being worn.This is the same exact text style as all of the other sets. If those DLC sets break the fourth wall, so does the Wild set.
That is New Hyrule. Old Hyrule is still under the sea, but it's also not 2/3 or the time according to a merged timelineHyrule exists in all three timelines. It was refounded post-WW. And, yes, this is canon; check Phantom Sword and Spirit Tracks.
Back to my earlier. Old Hyrule is under the sea but is fine? the hero of time lost against ganondorf but also won?"which of these sequences happened" is going to simply be answered with "all of them."
Merging the timelines like what the elder scrolls did, while you could do it just feels like a cop out. "Everything is canon lol" Feels lazy.
