For starters, the way I make sense of the timeline split is not that the player gets a game over, but that Gannon(dorf) is unaposed. Either the downfall is created when Link is pulled from the flow of time; or what happens when Link doesn't have the ability to defeat him, without time travel. Either way, without time travel interference, he wins.
Then, there's the often disputed idea that Breath of the Wild is part of the Downfall timeline. Officially, all timeliness converge at the same point. Nevertheless, the world as far as I have found, most closely resembles the downfall timeline?
So, as the title suggests, is the natural course of the land, and the actions of Gannon(dorf), lead to a downfall world? If so, are the actions of the hero(s), and possibly the goddesses, mostly an effort to this inevitable outcome?
