      So I compared the release dates of botw and totk
      1 blood moon happens every 2 hours with no time paising action.
      12 blood moons happen a day.
      2261.5 days between game release dates.
      12 moons × 2261.5 days = 27,138 blood moons.
      And that's not accounting for hour, minute, and second they were officially released.

    It would be so sick if every blood moon spawned a Phantom Ganon on horseback that hunts you until the morning unless you’re strong enough to beat him.
    Edit - I know they probably won’t do anything like this but it’d be even cooler if when you defeated him, he came back stronger the next time, adapting to your tactics. Like, if you spam arrows he’ll gain the ability to deflect them back at you, and if you parry a lot he’ll start using grab attacks or something and forces you to change tactics every time you face him.

    Her whole life is depressing and she dreamed of being a scholar like her mother before the Calamity. Plus, hers and Link's relationship feel very special to me more than a simple Princess and Knight dynamic.

      I share your opinion. I love her relationship with Link. Yes he’s in charge of her safety, but they are everything to each other. Zelda lost everyone and everything and Link never really had much and he only has Zelda. It is dramatic but so sweet. I hope Nintendo makes good use of their relationship, just like in Skyword Sword.

      @@solmartel360 Zelda is very relatable is many ways as well. Mostly due to her complex relationship with her father King Rhoam. He could’ve been more supportive of her since being a father to nurture a child can help Zelda by allowing her to investigate with the guardians. Instead, he coldly pressures and lashes at his own daughter for being a scholar and failing to unlock her sealing powers. How would you feel if your own father disses you and yell straight out your face with the most hurtful words? I think the only one who is the real failure is the along himself.

    My blood moon theory is that the blood moon will last through a majority of the night, and swarms/scouting groups of enemies will appear and start attacking Link, similar to how Typhon's Rage works in Immortals Fenyx Rising. In the trailer, pretty much every time it showed the "boss bokoblins" the sky has been red. Instead of it being a quick event, I think blood moon nights will be stressful and slightly difficult, with obvious ways to avoid it, such as lighting a fire and sitting until morning. Just thought I'd share my theory.

    I think that the malice reflects ganondorf and his hatred. In botw he wanted to rule Hyrule and hated link and Zelda resulting in malice but a controlled form of malice. Now with his hatred pointed towards Hyrule itself and wanting to destroy it this results in a more raw powerful malice and this makes the blood moon a bit different than what it was. And also that's why malice looks a bit different in totk

    I had a crazy thought. What if it's a time loop. I wouldn't even consider it but it would hold with the backwards chanting and some other scenes we've seen. Ganondorf has to be defeated before the peak of his power at the blood moon or he takes over the kingdom. But we're stuck in time loop connected to a certain point perhaps by the mysterious arm. It's a long shot but also seems oddly right to me. Though how that would work is something I am certainly curious about. Improving on MM's systems.

    I’ve seen a lot of theories going around since trailer 1 saying that we’ll be going back in time in Totk 10,000 years ago to the time of the ancient mural in Sheikah village to witness or participate in the events seen first hand. But with trailer 3 being out I think it’s something much deeper, like the ouroboros seen on the cover for Tears of the kingdom something cyclical is happening. As we already know because of trailer 1 at some point in the past the rise of Ganondorfs monsters has already happened before, we can see that with the cave drawings of the long horned Bokoblins and with their return in Tears of the kingdom. But in the cave drawings the Moblins are the same as they were in botw unlike their new appearance in Totk have rounder kind of domes rather than horns and of course the rise of new monsters like the “Bosskoblin” and what I think are Kargaroks the flying frog things. This shows that not only is history repeating itself but it’s getting far worse than it was in the past, ever since Ganondorf was sealed underground and calamity Ganon rose to power Hyrules been in a kind of stasis eternally fighting the inevitable return of Ganondorf and his forces. Except this time one snake is getting more ravenous than the other, the eternal stasis that’s trapped Hyrule and Ganon in endless fighting for 10,000 years is going to be broken for good, one snake will finally devour the other. Ganondorf also burned his chances of reincarnation when he turned into Dark Beast Ganon at the end of botw, this is his last ditch effort to destroy Hyrule and he’s stronger than he ever has been before with even stronger forces to command. This really is endgame and I’m hyped to see where this all goes

    Damn. Just realized the full implications. All this time, Ganondorf has been sealed below Hyrule. He's the true source of Malice, obviously, as it slowly leaks out through the seal. Calamity Ganon has been a thing for a while now it sounded like from the lore of the last game. Now it seems Calamity Ganon was just a manifestation that would appear when enough Malice accumulated beneath the surface, spilling out into a powerful phantasmal beast and unleashing Ganon's influence through the Malice. So in a way, Calamity Ganon was just Phantom Ganon, a mere projection. But one that seemed plenty powerful enough to destroy Hyrule easily if Zelda hadn't become a secondary seal holding it back.
    All that with Ganondorf under a powerful seal. Now that the seal is broken, it seems he's able to unleash his full power. No wonder Zelda isn't sure Link can handle it this time.

    There is a scene in which you see one of those boss bokoblins commanding an army of regular bokoblins and from the color of the scene it looks as if that’s happening during a blood moon. This time I think the blood moons will be a whole extended event that occurs for a duration of time(the whole night) instead of just a small cutscene. During this event monsters will not only respawn but will be extra fierce and souped up because of the influence of the blood moon.

    Another thought I just had tying with my other comment about the possibility (probability?) of Zelda's death - but is so off-field it needs it's own comment. But first, *a refresher from Skyward Sword:*
    _"Extraordinary. You stand as a paragon of your kind, human. You fight like no human or demon I have ever known. Though this is not the end. _*_My hate... never perishes._*_ It is born anew in a cycle with no end! _*_I will rise again._*_ Those like you... _*_Those who share the blood of the goddess and the spirit of the hero..._*_ They are _*_eternally bound to this curse._*_ An _*_incarnation of my hatred shall ever follow your kind,_*_ dooming them to wander a blood-soaked sea of darkness for all time!"_
    Nice curse you have there, Demise. Really _dark._ Sooo...what happens when "Those who share the blood of the goddess" (meaning Hylia, also meaning the Hyrulean Royal Family) _dies out entirely?_ Will the curse, too, be finally broken? Would this extend if the "spirit of the hero" becomes the new King of Hyrule? And if Hylia reincarnates one day within the new Royal Family, with all daughters once again being named after the princess whom Link couldn't save, to create an entirely new "Legend of Zelda"? It would be, after all, no longer _her_ bloodline.

    Since it has been speculated that we might have the Goddess Hylia provide some sort of strength to Link is it possible that Demise helps Ganondorf? I know it's a stretch but if they decide to go as far back in the timeline as Skyward sword regarding the characters, it would make some type of sense that Ganondorf gets this much stronger with gaining some type of power from somewhere. Just a fun thought.

    My best guess is that majority of the people on Hyrule were wiped out by ganondorf. I do think Zelda will be playable at the very first part of the game and she either dies or gets caught by ganondorf. I'm guessing she may be playable if she survives after hence the shekiah slate. I also think link for decimated to the point the hand sent him to the sky to heal and collect the souls of the people of Hyrule. Eventually killing ganondorf would restore Hyrule but I think link has to collect a certain amount of souls to restore the places that were wiped by the malice. Just my guess

    Had a thought, what if the voice we heard isn't ganondorf, but it's actually Demise, because ganondorf has always wanted to rule Hyrule, but Demise always wanted to destroy it, and with the master sword broken he could return, either as himself or he could possess ganondorf's body until his is recreated, that's a cool thought.

    I love their approach with Ganondorf so far. Maybe there's more to it, but if he is just consumed with anger and rage it makes sense. I know it's just been theories that he is sealed while in pain but it would just feed into it. His rage bubbling and building for so long that it nearly destroyed Hyrule while he was sealed. Now that he's free? Of course he's focused on getting revenge on the land itself.
    What leave me curious is the connection to the Blood Moon. It make sense considering the last game for the Blood Moon to be more powerful. But I wonder why Ganondorf has that connection to it. Is it simply the malice that is powering him up to let him do this? And what role will the Triforce have in all this? Is it with Zelda? Was it sealed with Ganondorf to help remove both elements from the history of Hyrule? Heck, is the Triforce sealed on the moon? Is Ganondorf resonating with the power of the Triforce to make the moon react to his will?

    • @Jenna_Talia
      @Jenna_Talia Před rokem

      Really do wonder what their plans are with the triforce. It ain't a symbolic thing or anything it's an actual holy object. Only instance of seeing it is zelda's hand in BOTW. Though, she can't have all three pieces cause then she could just wish for the calamity to be over. She wouldn't be able to get all three pieces anyways given there's never any mention of even just one part.
      My theory is that the pieces are hidden somewhere underground and/or in the sky. Perhaps that could be the main quest for the game. That, or Ganondorf is chasing them.

    2261.5 days between game release dates.

  • @zabjex

    If the blood moon does make enemies stronger, the rewards for fighting them would presumably be correspondingly greater. I am thinking along the lines that there could be a few bosses where if you defeat the powered-up blood moon version, this somehow helps in your quest, saves the people of Hyrule, or makes Ganondorf weaker. Then the boss would only ever respawn as a slightly weaker non-blood-moon version.
