Where does everyone think Breath Of the wild will be on the timeline?

There isn't any hostility, the reason i said it didn't answer jack is because i doubt anyone bar a few know about that little factoid. Hell i didn't. Kindly don't assume Hostility. Posting an image that explains literally nothing doesn't do anything for clarity.

Now Back on Topic, and i thank you for answering my query.

to be honest I didn't know that either, never heard of Hyrule fantasy before but it all makes sense now.

I'm currently hearing a lot of that.... could you please elaborate as to why if you don't mind..?

There's a ton of reasons actually. For one, I believe this Link resembles the classic Link a lot more than any of the modern interpretations with his insanely long mutton chops and slender physique. Ganondorf is also referred to as just Ganon which we know to be a big blue pig and a similar figure is seen swarming the castle in Breath of the Wild. Both classic Link and Ganon are prominently present all throughout the downfall timeline.

The resting place of the Master Sword as seen in the E3 trailer is also identical to where it was in A Link to the Past, from light shining to the placement of the flowers.

I also think this Link could be the Link who fell in Ocarina of Time which is why he wakes up in a resurrection chamber and Hyrule is in ruins. The Old Man even acknowledges that Link should remember Zelda's voice meaning these could possibly be the same Link and Zelda from a previous game. Link, we know has been in stasis for 100 years but Zelda still being alive is quite a mystery but not impossible. Perhaps she's been trapped in the castle with Ganon and put in a stasis similar to that diamond contraption she was stuck in, in Ocarina of Time.

I think the timing to do something like this makes a lot of sense considering they've finally established a timeline which gives them the opportunity to unify their games a lot better from here on out which I believe we've already caught glimpses of with the presence of the Hylia statue which was established in the last game. I also believe The Great Plateau is Skyloft as it's risen from the ground with cloudiness beneath it. Castle Town from Ocarina of Time is also present but in ruins as is the Temple of Time which establishes its connection to Ocarina of Time.

The downfall timeline was also criticized by the majority of the community as it came out of nowhere so what better way to legitimize its existence than by touching on the event that kickstarted it in a game?

It's going to take place in a convergence timeline that draws all thr current time lines together and be the latest game in the timeline. Or at least that's my bold guess for the day.

That sounds cool!!!

Child timeline or just after SS

I actually thought it would take place right after Skywayrd Sword until we found out about the Temple of Time.... it really made me change my mind...

What if the temple of time isn't exclusive to OOT-era Hyrule? Especially since there are (from what I hear) multiple temples of time.

Well it looks eerily like the one we see in OoT and it's destroyed and looks ruined. This is where many people start to think it's OoT Link and this takes place before ALTTP...

I thought I read in an interview that there would be Koroks in BOTW. For this reason I would put it on the adult timeline with Wind Waker right before the flood.
