My revised timeline

....Right....

-----/TWW/PH - LoZ/AoL - OoX - TRR - TMC - FS/FSA - ALttP/LA - AST
OoT
-----\MM - TP/LA

Yes, I have came to terms that AST is...... canon, and that, much to my dismay, LA has to go after ALttP in the adult timeline because of it. Although as you can see, I also put LA in the child timeline.

Honestly I don't feel like typing much about this. So go ahead and point out/ask anything.

The notαtion for α gαme being in two possible plαces is α pαir of pαrenthesis αround it. So it would be:

-----/TWW/PH - LoZ/AoL - OoX - TRR - TMC - FS/FSA - ALttP/(LA)- AST
OoT
-----\MM - TP/(LA )


It is α timeline very similαr to others thαt I've seen. But it is not the sαme.

Pretty good... just a few things.

+AST isn't canon and isn't a Timeline thing. It's kind of like a funky Master Quest of aLttP, so shouldn't be included.

+Secondly with LA, do you believe that LA takes place in both timelines, or that it could be placed in either of those positions. I think people will want you to justify it more seen as you claim TP Link = LA Link, and because of the relationship between LA and aLttP.

So I'd be happy to make it...

-----/TWW/PH - LoZ/AoL - OoX - TRR - TMC - FS/FSA - ALttP/LA
OoT
-----\MM - TP

I can't yet dispute that too much, but some people might. That exact timeline above is actually Erimgard's "Freshly-Picked Oracles" Timeline, the same as Lord Insizors (Excluding TRR), Lexxi's and quite a few people, so you timeline definately is improving and coming al0ng better now!

Wow Matt, massive Alpha use now!

AST is not a remake. The only things the game shares are similar locations and the same world map. The story is said to take place 6 years after Alltp while Link is in the dream of LA.

This.

Okay, I'll bite, why is LA after TP?
Other than that, I agree with your timeline [though I'm undecided on the canonicty of AST]

Alright. Allow me to explain.

Does the world need to be flooded just to have oceans? No. Okay that part is 'fanfic', but then again, so is every single LoZ/AoL debate I see.

LA is a dream, meaning unlike other games, it has a little more placement possibilities. Except I tend to view ALttP Link and OoX Link to be young, while LA Link clearly looks older then them, like around TP's Link. Sailing can take a long time. But as evident by TWW and PH, sailing from one side of a sea chart to the other only takes a mere few days.

I also believe that the dream in LA is not a product of Link alone, but rather shared with the Wind Fish as if the two had a strong bond, dream-wise. There are also monsters and bosses who have only appeared in LA and not in other games to date. This I will be explaining later when I make a thread about the 'shared dream'.

Finally, you also have TP Link in the ending credits leaving Ordon, still wearing his tunic. The LA manual says that Link left for training and/or enlightment. TP Link had went through quite a bit.

^However, Ganon must be dead. In TP, he went by Ganondorf.

TP Ganondorf supposedly died, what happened to Ganon then?

Well? I'm waiting.

Also the LA English manual says that Ganon was dead. It never said anything about him in the Japanese LA manual, which is more canon.

Can anyone confirm that the Japanese doesn't say it? i'll leave that alone for now.

Can I ask why you have it in two places?

I unfortunately don't have it with me. Hold on, let me PM SoM for it. >_>

1. Because I basically just want to be different than everyone else.

2. Because if AST is in my timeline, LA has to go after ALttP in the AT.

3. LA is able to work in several placements. Not just after ALttP or OoX.

LA has to come after a game that has Aganim in it.

TP does not have Aganim.

In the words of my dear SVB...GAME OVER

I was skeptical when writing that, because I haven't played it, yet the sources I read said what I posted.... so they must be wrong. Nevertheless, I don't consider it 100% canon, and probably not worth timeline placing.

Could not the LA link have aged between aLttP and LA! As Skylark says above it's about 6 Years after aLttP, so if that Link was 10, he'd be 16 by LA, which is approximately TP Link's age. And generally going with developers quotes, LA fits in with LOZ/AoL/aLttP, yet they say it could fit anywhere amongst them!

Explain to me why there was a Marin and Tarin in LA but not in ALttP. Tell me why the Great Moblin was not in ALttP. Why is Rolling Bones mini boss not in ALttP, etc?

At least wait until I post my goddang thread about this.

About the age thing. AST didn'r say exactly when it happened. It could have just mentioned that Link was trapped in a dream in the past, but was now free from it a long while ago.

Goron moron.

Could you tell me what the evidance for TP/LA is?

I will admit that there is no evidence, meaning that LA is hard to place in the CT. However, I still go with my Link's age theory. The only other games that really have an adult Link is OoT and TP, although LA really can't go after OoT.

You can say that my reasoning is because I want to be different than anyone else. And although it is hard, I still try and still will. A theorist not only intrigues the mind, but also knows when he or she is wrong. And in this case, I know that I'm probably am wrong.

By the way Pinecone. When debating, maybe you should just learn to calm down.

The age?

LA Link is like 14 whereas TP Link is like 16. ALttP Link is 14 aswell though.

And just for the record I am VERY calm while theorizing.

EDIT:

O-M-F-G!

3000 ****ING POSTS! OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*****!

.....>_>

Where does it say that Link is 14 in LA? He clearly looks older than that to me.

AST says that it happens 6 years after Alltp. it also says you (the hero) was summoned because the hero is in the dream. Which means the two games are happening at the same time. This means that Alltp Link has aged.

Also, you listed off all those things that LA has, but Alltp does not. Tell me where they are in TP.

Good point. So by that logic, LA doesn't belong... well... anywhere, if you use that logic.

However I do plan to explain why these things happen, in another thread. Unfortunately I'm too busy to prepare it for now. You'll just have to wait after the holidays.

Not really.

It works AMAZING after ALttP.

Tell me one contradiction about that.
