Zelda: Age of Calamity Full Story Explained (SPOILERS)

"Only Sidon, Riju, Teba and Yunobo will remember." You're forgetting the most important character in all of Zelda history: Patricia the Sand Seal

*Slaps roof of Zelda series* This bad boy can fit so many timelines in it

How I think the 4 time travelers reacted after being sent back to their original timeline: Sidon: Melancholy. Happy to get to see his sister one last time, but sad that he couldn’t save his Mipha. Riju and Yunobo: Star struck that they got to meet their heroes. Teba: Never meet your heroes.

Astor: shocked to realize he is being a pawn to ganon before he dies Ghirahim, Yuga, Vaati, and Zant: first time?

Everyone: "Age of Calamity will be so dark!" Egg: It's rewind time

We talk about how strong this Link is but Zelda made a time machine when she was a child

I want to emphasize again that the full game released two days before this video was published. Within about 48 hours, he played through the entire story, wrote a script, recorded footage and voiceover, and edited this video. This is passion to the point it seems like madness.

This is one of the few Zelda games that made justice to Zelda herself. Seeing her going from insecure and powerless, to commanding the army of the united people of Hyrule, and fighting Ganon head-on is one of the most uplifting things I've seen in fictional media.

Game: came out Friday Zeltik: I dOnT nEeD sLeEp I nEeD aNsWeRS

Sidon probably returned to his timeline thinking his sister was alive just to just be completely disappointed. Now that’s the real tragedy.

The best part of Age of Calamity was Link eating the rocks Absolute legend

18:57 "making the harbinger the 5th blight ganon" You forgot about the actual 5th blight, the most powerful blight of all: Flowerblight ganon

“We did it guys we stopped the great calamity and saved everyone!!” Sooga: remains dead in both timelines

If you think about it, it's kinda tragic. This Mipha gets to live and be with her brother as he grows up. Meanwhile, BotW Sidon gets to go back to his timeline where she's dead.

Beautiful storytelling, the line “His skills were inhuman, moving with incredible speed and swinging the master sword with perfect accuracy” was almost poetic in a way

Moral of the Story: Don't worry about dying because a robot egg will send your descendants to the past creating a world where you never died

"This creates a separate time-line." Legend of Zelda fans: As if we needed MORE!

It’s kinda sad to know that Sidon knowing he saved his sister only to come back to back to a world where his sister is still gone

In terms of cinematic parallels, I think my favourite part of aoc was the evolution of people deflecting stuff from Zelda. Each time she's helpless and lost as people throw themselves in front of her to keep her safe, the camera pan is almost the exact same each time, even as she pressures Ganon for the first time she's pushed back and terrako throws itself in the way to protect her once more. Then, the final sealing cutscene, when Ganon puts all his energy into one final attack. The camera zooms in, but her eyes don't widen, they narrow. The world doesn't slow. She doesn't flinch. And Ganon shatters like glass against her. Top Zelda moment of EVERY game.

Dude my final battle against Ganon was crazy it came down to the last 1/4 of a heart on all characters, I couldn’t have asked for a more epic ending than that.
