#my totk playthru

MASSIVE TOTK STORY SPOILERS

Made some quickly colored sketches based on my thoughts and playthrough of totk now that I've reached the end of the main story (in 65 hours over 10 days...)

Explaining in order of appearance and also delivering thoughts opinions and spoilers on most things:

So since Sonia gets got and Rauru self sacrifices, and also Zelda shares a blood connection with them, they had to have had kids by the time Zelda got there. And I imagine she spent alot of time with them, since so much happens in those memories, so I like to think the kids and her got along. And I also image that these kids gotta look wild based on being half Zonia half Hylian. Wild looking halfling children left orphaned by Ganondorf.

Zelda gets saved from dragon form at the end, hoorah, however I think she should have kept some of the more dragon like features. I swear I'm not a furry but I just really like funky character designs. Something something how its become part of her something something I need lore videos on it immediately. Also a little Link mashup outfit (my favorite so far, pairing a horn with normal clothing)

So the sage avatars are like physical beings, hence why enemies can shoot at them and why they vanish when in villages in order to not scare people ig. Which to me implies that when you complete a sage dungeon with other sage avatars out, that actual sage can see them. While this has plentiful comedic potential, I do think Riju would be the only one to actually question it though. Also, I call the avatars "my shadow clone goons" or just goons for short, since they do like all my fighting for me. I sit back and block and they do all the work. Extra shout out to Tulin, I think he's killed more dungeon bosses than I have. I didn't wanna spoil Mineru to people so I just collectively call them my Goon Squad.

I thought it was really sweet how Zelda seems to have gotten a chance at having caring parental figures in Sonia and Rauru. I also think it's funny that the closest equivalent that I think Link has is in Purah. Who, when I got all the memories (and thus knew of the imposter and the fate of Zelda) and got the master sword, Link just straight up didn't share any of this until AFTER he got Mineru. Like. Buddy. All these people are worried about Zelda but you SAW THE MEMORY of Ganondorf using a puppet Zelda, and the memory of Zelda becoming a dragon. Like. He just chooses to keep those to himself until someone else brings it up. Straight up iconic. You keep all your secrets to yourself, little man. But it's funny how Purah literally had a line like "You knew all of this?! When were you gonna tell me?!" Lol

I have a lot of thoughts on this game, both good and bad, about the story, lore, mechanics, ect that I may make a post about eventually. However I do know that I'll probably make art of like every single new character eventually bc I dearly love them all (I especially think Yona has a cute design)! Anyways slay fun game I love it I shall continue to play 9/10

[blu-wingz]

biggest tragedy of not looking at any tears of the kingdom content in case of spoilers is i can not watch RTgame’s playthrough because he apparently fights the final boss in his first video ?!?!! crazy

#totk #blu.totk #blu.txt #i miss his videos and hes been uploading his lets play of it #and sometimes other stuff but i REALLY wanna watch his longer totk vids #im not rushing my playthru just to see his reaction to things #AAAAAAAAAAAAA #i cant watch SHIT

[rrover]

love the way ww link just fuckin yells at the top of his lungs whenever he does something

#im sure the other games are like that too im just so used to botw/totk link being kind of quiet #i also love how expressive ww link is he's so silly #he might end up being my favorite after i finish watching playthrus for every game i wish i could play #scampers

[spaceistheplaceart]

totk is an experience

(based on my playthru so far)

Just beat TotK

Wanted to get it done before we left the country (tomorrow) so I could start putting thoughts down on the flight (since god knows I won't be sleeping)

Ended up with 118/120 light roots and 148/152 shrines so I feel pretty good about having seen the game.

Will I be started a fresh playthru when I get home? Yes.

Will I be datamining my current save while overseas? Also yes.

Do I need to go lay down for awhile and process everything I just saw? Yes, full stop.

#do not spoil totk #totk #me #loz

[arimarushunya]

not gonna go into it rn but thru my whole playthru so far I really feel like totk was nintendo's second attempt at skyward sword

#more that just the islands in the sky #theres bits a pieces that just kinda give me that vibe #give me your egg

PEOPLE PLAYING TEARS OF THE KINGDOM:

If ANY of you see even a HINT of this man in tears of the kingdom:

You have got to post a picture and maybe tag me in it. Like it is your legal and moral right to let the people (re: me) know he's alive. Where is he 😭 please why can't I find any evidence of him in this game online outside of musical cues 😭😭😭 I just finished the rito village section and I don't think his wife or kids mentioned him at all

**minor spoilers** but I've seen the screenshot of Penn saying his name used to be Kass. I don't buy that for even a single second. Not only is that a completely different bird species, but his temperament is completely different. Kass could do journalism but Penn could never play the accordion. That is not my bird man.

I've seen people online saying he was seen in the depths? But how come there literally are no screenshots?? Please someone help

#tears of the kingdom #legend of zelda #totk #loz #my totk playthru #botw kass #wheres my boy at. where is he. is he ACTUALLY a deadbeat father? did he leave hyrule? did he DIE???

[incandacence]

considering not streaming tears of the kingdom anymore because i really want to play old rpgs and weird shit on my pc with that time instead, and just keep my totk playthru to myself

#candace speaks #streaming

[strawberrycircuits]

So is totk another reincarnation or like next Wednesday of botw?? How did thr environment and tech change so much xddd? Oh wait there could be multiple islands or something.

What are the explanations for shrines? Like they're just there for link to rave in

The trifecta or something like those three triangles are what i most see associated with loz. What did they represent??

Which variation of loz game first introduced you to it? Which is your fave?

If link and Finn adventure time met would they be best friends yes or no. Answer THIS ONE now1 bye

GOD BLESS YUOUUUUUU

-totk is a direct sequel to botw! iirc, totk started as botw dlc, but things got so Big they ended up making another game! we dont actually know how much time has passed between the two games, but there are a couple of things that point to it having been a few years.

>Tulin, who was a very young child (think 4 - 7?) in BOTW, is considerably older (10 - 13) in TOTK, as is riju (she went from being 11 - 14 to being 16 - 18).

>purah's age-reversal technology, which first accidentally made her revert to 6 years old in BOTW, has had its kinks worked out and shes back to looking like a very young adult

>major developments in various characters lives and in the various towns ALSO imply times progressed (zeldas moved in with link and has facilitated the creation of a school in Hateno, Paya is now chief of Kakariko, Sidon is engaged, etc etc).

so its not really the next wednesday after BOTW, its more like. a couple of years down the road. i like to think its been 6 years, just bc thats the actual gap of time between botws release and totks release and nintendo has based their game timeframes off of release dates before (splatoon does this a lot)

-if theres an explanation for the shrines in TOTK i donot know it yet <3 for BOTW, the calamity that strikes Hyrule is actually the 2nd time its happened. 10,000 years before botw, calamity ganon struck, and a link and zelda we dont know anything about managed to seal him away. the ancient sheikah of the time had the foresight to be like "omg what if he comes back" and so they made the shrines to help train whatever hero was around when ganon decided to come back in the future. idk why theyre just Gone in botw tho that shit sucks :/

-uaaah the triforce is so fuckinf weird. ok so its a wish making thing made up of 3 parts-- the triforce of power, triforce of courage, and triforce of wisdom (Woaoo spladfest!!!). if u wanna use it, you have to embody those 3 things, and u also have to be a mortal. if u DONT possess those three qualities, the triforce breaks and embeds whatever quality you embody most in you and the other two parts find people to shove themselves into instead. in skyward sword, link goes through a number of trials that help him develop the power, wisdom, and courage he needs, and he's able to make a successful wish. meanwhile in ocarina of time, ganondorf tries to take it, and he gets stuck with the triforce of power while the wisdom and courage parts go attach to zelda and link respectively. the triforce is a little. dumb i think </3 sorry

-my first legend of zelda was skyward sword, but i never got past the first ghirahim battle, so id just... keep restarting, playing to that point, and starting again. i was kind of obsessed with the opening and i would replay just to see the cutscene where Fi leads Link away to the sword in the middle of the night. I got farther in when i replayed it when i was older but i watched Chuggaconroys playthru all the way bc he loves the game as much as I do and shows u all avenues and details :]. my 2nd game was OOT on the 3Ds and i got to the fire temple and did a similar thing of playing thru the first bit and resetting to play over and over again. then beyond that ive played minish cap, twilight princess, hyrule warriors (wii u), wind waker, botw, and now totk. ive been a fan since i was 4-6, so ig ss/oot got me into it? but BOTW reaaally kicked things into high gear for me lmao. honestly what got me REALLY back into it was michpat6's aftermath series on ao3 because it completely recontextualized how i saw the series and its characters. my favorites are, in order; Skyward Sword, Breath of the Wild, Ocarina of Time, and the Minish Cap!

-ok waiot which. Link. heres wht i think hahehahea;

>wind waker: BESTIES they go on adventurs and be so silly togwtherr!!!! finn talks ab his parents and link talks abt his gma and sister!! they talk abt their nonhuman friends!!!! link shows him how to use the hyoi pears to astral project into the seagulls! bestieeeees!!!!!!

>twilight princess: not sure? TP link gets along great with weird ass kids but idk if that means he genuinely would like 2 chill w a weird ass kid like Finn aushjsa

>BOTW/TOTK: YES but she'd be much more mellowed than Finn. same shenanigans different demeanor yakno. also blond bitches w fucked up ripped off arms and sentient sword gang!!!!!!

>AOC: euurhhhg.no. i think he was a good bit more no nonsense pre calamity but then again he did eat rocks bc someone dared him to and ran like 2 miles bc got his motorcycle hijacked by zelda in this one so idk

>Skyward Sword: he'd be so sooo sweet and like. humor Finn? but unless Finn needed help w anything hed just gently turn down any offers to chill 2gether bc hes sooo focused on other things and the way his swords buzzing tells him he needs 2 get on it

>OOT: ok if hes a kid he'd think Finn is SO COOL but if its adult link i think hed see him as very annoying and would get on his nerves . idk oot link seems very frustrated at all times and like i cant blame him but i think his patience would be very very thin

>Majoras Mask: somewhere in the middle of adult and child links opinions. god knows how long that boys been in a timeloop i think he wouldve learned to appreciate the people around him more than he did as an adult shaped kid back in Hyrule but thats getting into Strawb's Meta Analysis Of Ocarina Of Time/Majoras Mask territory and that would take 5 billion years to explain so i wont here </3

>Minish Cap: tehy have hat. yes. also i read the manga for this one and he acts like sum sort of middle ground between finn and gumball watterson so uauhhhhh ya (nvn)b

>A Link Between Worlds: ok look. i havent played this game. i cannot tell u the plot. what i DO know is that theres this little freak dressed like a rabbit named Ravio who is bizarro Link from a reversed Hyrule called Lorule and im obsessed with him. anuways Ravio and Finn would also be alright buds and Ravio would like. totally cheer Finn on from the background but also he's stealin shit outta Finn's house sowwyyy

get to know people game 🌠

tagged by @wizardmarriage TY TY THIS IS CUTE!! i'm always down for a tag on stuff like this

current time: 8:59 am i'm eating breakfast

anything you intend to do later: i gotta head out to go help with inventory for work in like 5 BUT if we're talking things this month a friend is renting out a theater so we can watch the matrix for his birthday i think this weekend? and my dad's coming to visit a few weeks after that. both of those are fun! i'm gonna finish skyrider either today or tomorrow i think. i also need to draw some things for Zine Keisuke... and multiple things i was writing that's just normal tho I HAVE SOOO MUCH TO DO ALWAYS i am cursed to create here

anything you recently played or watched: HMM other than the toku you know about i've been playing totk recently (i get on like a couple days on couple weeks off cycle with that game) and that's been fun. i've been catching up with rude tales of magic (my favorite podcast) and that's slapped i need to find a way to actually share bits of that one with people so that i can at least get people familiar with it. it's very funny i like it. i'm reading kimi ni todoke too just because it's on the viz app and i got a subscription to that but it's also really fun i'm having a blast of a time there!

anything you want to play or watch: HMM hmm i mean i wish there was unlimited time and i could actually get through some of the video game backlog i have. i started a p5r playthru a couple months back and only just got through madarame (but i haven't picked it up in a bit). i would loveeee to watch the honey and clover drama when i have time since a friend's reading the manga and i would kill to see hanamoto in live action. i also wanna watch a horror flick again (and got a recommendation for that) but picking a night to watch a movie is always hard...

ANYWAY to tag other people. @sunshinemoonrx you mentioned you were curious about ask memes; this is not that but this is some good old fashioned journal style #blogging. @mywinona you are always my fodder in these situations. @starpuncher david i am taking your hand it's 2014 again and we are following each other on tumblr for the first time. none of you have to do this if you don't want to you're just who i thought of for the jokes there
