Talk:The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

timeline
It is implied by Zelda's dialogue when appointing Link as her knight that Breath of the Wild takes place in the "Child Link" Timeline, as in addition to referencing Ocarina of Time and Skyward Sword, she references Twilight Princess. Apparently Zelda's dialogue in the French and German voiceovers continue on and can be heard in the background she makes two more references to the hero of Wind/Great Sea (reference to Wind Waker) and another corresponding to LTTP.
 * The French dialogue is "Par delà les mers... Dans sa quête du pouvoir d'or forgé par les dieux..." Which apparently means: "Beyond the seas... In his quest for the golden power forged by the gods..."
 * The German dialogue is apparently: "Ob der Held die Meere überquert oder eine Verbindung mit der Vergangenheit eingeht, du mögest stets an seiner Seite sein." Which apparently means: "Whether the hero crosses the sea, or creates a link to the past, may you always be at his side."
 * The original Japanese it is: umi o koe / kami no tsukureshi ogon no o motomen toki "You cross the seas when you seek the gold made by the gods"
 * Though English localizations drastically alter the line; "Forged in the long-distant past, the sword that seals the darkness…Guardian of Hyrule, ancient steel, forever bound to the hero. In the name of Goddess Hylia, I bless you and your chosen hero. Over the seas of time and distance, when we need the golden power of the Goddess… Our hope rests in you, to be forever by the hero's side. Again we pray…that the two of you will grow stronger…and be together as one."

Many locations from the span of Skyward Sword to Twilight Princess in the Timeline also appear in the game as ruins.Baggins (talk) 15:32, May 26, 2017 (UTC)
