Boy, Link sure has it rough. Welcome to MojoPlays and today we’re looking at moments from “The Legend of Zelda” that prove being the Hero of Hyrule isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Honestly, Majora's Mask is just one ginormous nightmare for Link. Not only is he forced into a time loop, but everything he puts on one of the transformation masks, he's subjected to the anguish that the spirit of the mask experienced before they died, which is why Link screams whenever he puts the masks on. And he has to put on those masks a lot. Not to mention that the fierce deity's mask, whilst also containing the potential to corrupt him, contains the memories of everyone in termina, so that probably doesn't go over well for him.

I would personally put losing a limb higher in the list than number 10, especially since it was basically eaten away by gloom first before being amputated. If you think about it, that actually means the remains of his arm are probably up there somewhere on the Great Sky Island, which is objectively horrifying. 😬 That's not even touching on the psychological toll it would take on ANYBODY having a dominant limb amputated, and then add to it the dissonance that would happen every time he'd look down and see someone else's very alien looking appendage on him instead of his own? It would be incredibly painful both physically and mentally/emotionally.

How about what became of the Link from Ocarina Of Time and Majora's Mask? Because he was never recognized as a hero in the Child Timeline, he never got to pass on what he knew to any successors, so he became a restless spirit (the Hero's Shade) who wondered Hyrule waiting for someone he could train to be the next hero, which he was finally able to do with the Link from Twilight Princess, who is his descendant, before he was finally able to find peace.

Your part about Link's "childhood" in OoT is only partly right. He got to become a child again at the end, but not before the experience of suddenly becoming an adult without his consent meant he was forced to quickly mature if he was to be able to interact with npcs etc. Also some of 'em acted a bit.. suggestive when talking with him. Must've been hard for him to find out what they meant... You're also forgetting that time Link was extorted into a marriage with Ruto. He was a KID.

You can tell that it was incredibly painful, and Rauru saying he "had to replace it" is just a nicer way of saying it had to be amputated because it had been eaten away by gloom to the point of not being salvageable. If you think about it, the remains of his arm are probably up there somewhere on the Great Sky Island, which is objectively horrifying. The fact that it's number 10 is ridiculous, imo.

Seeing this reminds me of 1 idea I had for the next zelda game: Link is sent into a future where Ganondorf has already won, so he has to live as an outlaw & find a way back to the past. Ergo it'd be similar to GTA & samurai jack. But the problem is that was kind of already done in Oot & Botw. I did have another idea that the next game could take place in space though, which I feel they strongly hinted at in totk. Another option I can see them doing is having the next game be the story of the 8th heroine. There's a lot more going on there, as we saw in that side quest

Losing his companions (Navi, Daphnes, Midna, Ezlo, Linebeck/Ciela, Fi and the champions) Dying with regret, (His Ocarina of Time adventure being erased leading to not being honored in that timeline, and becoming the hero shade not passing his sword skills until his descendant).

Short Correction: Demise didnt force him into rebirth, rebirth is a common thing in Zelda Because modern Zelda Lore is a lot inspired by Buddhism. Meaning Link and Zelda would have still been reborn still, but what Demise did is basically sending (his) Demons which are taking his place to haunt them forever. And besides it wouldnt make much sense that Demise would make the one that killed him reappear so that his Successors could be killed by that one as well.

Neither Link nor Zelda were ever forced into rebirth. So many people get this wrong, but Zelda and Link are NOT reincarnations of previous Links and Zeldas. All the Links and Zeldas in other games are the descendants of the OG Link and Zelda, not their reincarnations; this was confirmed by the game makers. Demise cursed Link and Zelda's bloodline, he even says "Those LIKE you, with the blood of the goddess and the spirit of the hero" (spirit does not necessarily mean soul).The only one who keeps reincarnating is Ganondorf because he is Demise's curse, the manifestation of Demise's hatred, who arises whenever to plague OG Link and Zelda's descendants (it’s become tradition to name the female descendants of Zelda to be named Zelda and the male descendants of Link to be named Link so there will always be an “age of Zelda” and a Link to support her). Heck, the Link in Twilight Princess even meets the spirit of the Link from OOT/MM (the Hero's Shade), who is his confirmed ancestor, something he couldn't do if he was that Link's reincarnation.

There’s a theory out there saying Zelda’s massive energy blast actually killed Link. And the Shrine of Resurrection didn’t heal him, but brought him back from death.

Minish Cap/Four Sword games. Poor dude gets himself ripped apart, and his other parts tend to be utter a-holes. That or Tri-Force Heroes, where his other halves(?) are deaf morons.

What's the worst thing that happened to link is that none of the responsibility, be the hero is something he never asked for

@ZonaiHero-ul5nm 3 ай бұрын

Yeah, could you imagine one game where Link refuses to step up to be a hero and someone else has to do it?

Pov you are Link: I lost all my friends and I lost my arm and I can travel time and I almost died 100,000,000,000 times

The thing is kinda misleading Instead of the worst should be the most disturbing or something like that Also, losing an arm should make the top 3 or 2

The worst thing was to generation after generation being friendzoned by Zelda! (Thankfully Tears of the Kingdom corrects it!)

I’ll never understand how the timeline splits in OOT. The ending shows what happens so how and why can it split?

@jammiedonut6934 3 ай бұрын

There’s three timelines, one is the one that link gets sent back to by Zelda, the second being the timeline Zelda was currently in, and the third being a what if ganondorf killed link

@@jammiedonut6934They need to make a proper ending for his failure in OOT. Like you get a game over in AOL. They should show an ending every time you get a game over in OOT.

I can understand the timeline splitting into 2 but not 3. The third was just bs Nintendo made up years after the fact due to fan pressure but the first two splits make sense as they show both timelines at the end of OOT.
