Episode 533: The Zelda Timeline
Added 2023-05-08 11:00:03 +0000 UTCThis week, we grab a big ol' can opener and open a big ol' can of worms—namely, the chronology that underlies the Legend of Zelda series. Does the timeline matter? Does it make sense? Was it a huge mistake for Nintendo to attempt to lock down the way each Zelda game relates to the others? Why is Zelda so horny? We answer all of these questions! Probably!

Comments
Am I the only one who finds Ganondorf a really pitiable character? A Bad Dude warlock in one lifetime and now inseperably shackled to a natural force of evil that cannot change its nature. It'd be like getting turned into a storm god and forced to endure destroying lives etc repeatedly forever. I like the idea of Ganondorf and Zelda being incarnations of magical opposites (evil and good) whereas Link and courage isn't a divine force but something that common mortals must be/produce themselves.
