YIPEEE!!!
nice
I decided to listen to this because I hadn't heard it in so long, and I chose the right time! Finally!
I have been waiting for this song to go on Apple Music for years now. I have already downloaded the song and listening to it feels nostalgic. Thank you for not giving up after 4 years ❤
Been waiting for this 4 so long! Added it to my playlist right away lmao
Link needs a hug. Someone give him a hug.
Kyle Gribble Then give him another one. It’s not as though hugs are some scarce commodity. More hugs. Hugs for everyone
*Hugs link* My child must be loved!!
Gamer_Seal from the flashbacks, Urbosa feels kind of like an older sister to both Link and Zelda, kindly watching over them. She was a great character as well...
No one cares what Urbosa is she still giant woman big sister to almost everyone (except revali cause fuck that pretentious prick) *HUGS LINK* This boy deserves love he’s been alone for so long
**Hugs Link** Heros need love too😢❤
Everyone always makes jokes and memes about BotW Link just screwing around rather than doing the main quest. But I haven't seen anyone stop and consider the fact Link has these fleeting memories and whispers following him everywhere he goes. He doesn't know who he is, or who these people in his head are. Link is thrown into this quest alone and confused. He knows he cares, but not the reason for it. He knows this world, but without context. He barely begins to remember his friends before realizing they're all dead. The entirety of Hyrule must be a lonesome land of déjà vu for Link! So, he distracts himself with simple tasks to keep his memory from wandering to places distorted by time. The amount of hidden angst below the surface of the game is astonishing, and I am loving it.

I respect and salute for you

This comment hit my heart, this is one of the first people who knows what Link is going through.
Everyone always asks “where’s the hero that seals the darkness?!” But not “how’s the hero that seals the darkness?”
Shoooo "whys the hero that seals darkness?"
But “is the hero that seals the darkness?”
"Why is the hero that seals the darkness"
Question hero that seals the darkness
When is the hero of that seals the darkness
I find it incredibly tragic how Link starts off pretty happy and expressive but the more he regains his memories the more he becomes that stoic knight from before the calamity and even at the end where he smiles it’s so much more subdued
The smile now hides a lot of pain. It kind of mirrors the UK boxart and the US boxart for botw. UK's is bright and colorful, and link looks at the camera, expressing a bit of a smile (if he's not, my bad). Its pretty clear its about the adventure and exploration. But the US box art is much more solemn; the colors are subdued and the lands but most of all link, is heavily shadowed. Link does not face the camera, he stares off at the castle with his sword and shield out. One portrays how link saw the world before he got his memories back...and the other one is how he saw it after.
His responses to the stranger who turned out to be the king were so great and innocent. He just wanted to check the paraglider out.
@@ShadowSkyX Link doesn't really smile but it's more blank like curiosity.
Late comment, but because the game is pretty open about quests and all that, I would say Link just has his moments like that, but is actually far more expressive when it's not a serious moment. Like, his "diary" (that the English localization butchered into the generic 2nd-person Adventure Log addressing the player and erasing all of Link's own thoughts) makes it very clear he likes to make people smile and happy (especially children), that he *loves* seal surfing, how he's an absolute foodie... and thinks Zelda's voice is beautiful lol. But he also has moments of insecurity, unsure if he's worthy of the Wild outfit set, if he has the strength to save Zelda and Hyrule. I believe the DLC content is where he finally writes that Zelda must be proud of him now, that he truly feels like THE hero.
Everyone asks where is link, no one asks how is link.
Everyone asks "Where's Link?" Maybe they should have said "How's Link?"
voids11 Why is link
Honestly they really should have
I’ve got a better question. Why is Link?
Know what ya people should have asked nintendo "hey how is link are you sure he isnt traumatized?"
Link probably give a blank stare.
Something I’ve realized over the past few years: You can still have friends yet feel like the loneliest person in the world
True
It comes from not being able to talk to them about the things that matter most to you. If you don't have someone you can pour your heart out to, then it doesn't matter how many friends you have...
Tell me about it...
Especially when all the real friends you did have beforehand have been dead for a century while you took a nap
Even tho i Have Friends And my parents still Around Even tho i know who i am And yet i'm still Lonely and Still Searching
I played Breath of the Wild with my younger siblings watching me, and they always had something to say or point out and even helped me find mushrooms to make food when I was stuck on the Plateau. Their interactions and quips added so much to the game that I never realized until I tried playing it by myself, and I realized how truly lonely it is.
At least you had someone at first...
@@Wolffman109 Just like Link...
Yeah I get that feeling I usually play games alone sometimes online wich can be interesting sometimes Utho at times I'll be randomly playing games like botw acc pokemon with all the virtual pets and I'd just get this huge feeling of Emptyniss there's still things going on in the game Shure but in the world I'm alone in that moment fed up bored lonely un able to get immersed I'm the game I'd just walk around do minor things before shutting the game off for later back to square 1 what to do with myself? Note I'm one of the only gamers in my frend group and my sister is 6 years apart I'm introverted so I enjoy my own company but not forever
@@CoCofi8103 too bad we can't play together.
I was the younger sibling I remember watching my older sister and brother play twilight princess when I was little
Twist: The real reason Link lost his memories is because waking up with all his memories and realizing everything he loved and knew was gone would be too much, so the shrine was designed to take away those memories so that they could be regained slowly at a manageable pace, after the resurrected person had already started their "new life."
I really like the idea of that. I like to think that the Sheikah thought ahead, in case anyone did end up in Link's situation.
Yess! and somehow Zelda new that Link lost his memories
@@mira3498 Maybe she had gotten far enough in studying the shrine to learn that such would happen?
its so traumatic :(
shrine of resurrection: erases links memories so he can restart at a reasonable pace impa + memories and such: *im about to end this mans whole career*
Yeah everyone talks about how all his friends are dead but they never talk about how Link said, (according to Zelda's diary) that he didn't want to be the hero, imagine going through all this pain and loneliness for a life you didn't want in the first place
Honestly, put yourself in his shoes. What if you were chosen to protect the fate of the world from an ancient evil, only to fail, almost die and be sealed away while the one you loved kept the evil at bay for a hundred years. Everyone you’ve ever known will have been long dead, all your friends, family… Truly, his pain is unimaginable…
Yah even know according to the internet he is ....😲 17
@@danmcginley6253 Jesus...
@@skelee1401 yahhhh I looked it up
Link just wanted to be a person not someone who has to save hyrule for the 100th time
I imagine that BOTW Link cries a lot. He's failed his duties as the Hero to protect Hyrule, and now everything's in ruins, and there's nothing he can do about it.
yup, give him a hug people, give him a hug.
He was overpowered so it wasn't completely his fault
@@oneswimmingboy damn that's not healthy he could get a heart attack later if he didn't open up to someone
Well dang
@@oneswimmingboy what's even sadder is he talked all the Guardians (except maybe Rivali) they were his closest friends and wheh ge wakes up they have all been dead a century and Zelda is trapped fighting Gannon
“With so much at stake, and so many eyes upon him, he feels it necessary to stay strong and silently bear the burden.”
Hey that's from Zelda's diary 😂😂😂
How is that funny
I feel like this line kinda explains why he has so much more personality during the events of the gameplay. Almost nobody remembers him, so although the stakes are just as high, not nearly as many "eyes" are watching him, judging every action he makes.
ayo, is this why (all incarnations of Link not just BoTW) never speak? just the Hyahs and random spurts of exclamation?
@@jasp3r_n1ghtth0rn4 not really, this is specifically for BOTW link. In the previous games, the excuse was that link just never had a voice so the player could project himself/herself to the character. now they gave him an actual reason.
Tears of The Kingdom just released today, and I can’t wait to see the community create more masterpieces like this video.
I was thinking the same thing
Fuck you, think fast there's already a tears of the kingdom esque thing out that I don't have the link for SHIT
I AM BACK THE NEW VIDEO WAS MADE BY THIS VERY CREATOR JESUS IM STUPID
Fr
I played BoTW all the way through, and yet this video is what made me realize that the Hero of the Wild, probably is the Link who has it the worst.
I dunno at least he got his happy ending, Time on the other hand though.
@@bursky09 huh, I guess it's not a bad ending for him but i wouldn't call it "happy"
@@bursky09 Wild lost all his friends except Zelda (sure he made awesome new ones, but still), probably his family (considering he had one, what we don't know though), all of Hyrule and 100 years of his "life". Time on the other hand got even send back to make up for the 7 year lost. Sure he lost Navi, but we know for a fact that he at least had a wife and then died sometime in the woods. But that's all, we can assume he had a pretty neat life until he died of who knows what. Wild, who knows what he'll do in the future, but going by those facts and considering that Wild had to do his journey alone and Time had Navi, as well as Tatl, I'd say Wild had it worse.
Curse of the lost woods those that enter gets lost and become stalfoes so that is how he died
@@JohnnyYeTaecanUktena Well not quite. Getting lost is one part of it. However the actual curse is something else. If an adult were to die inside the Lost Woods, they'll turn into a Stalfoss. If a child dies in them, they become a Skull Kid. So the question of how Time died still remains the same and the answer unknown, but we at least know he died as an adult and not a virgin as well.
He protecc, he attacc, most of all he wants his friends bacc.
omg 😭
That’s sentence stabbed my hard
An when he want his friends bacc he protecc and attacc harder than ever, especially towards the whole calamity because that who he meant to attacc and protecc everyone from but failed and "died"
@@zandernorton5761 and was revived a century later with no previous memorys and was sent by Impa to collect them and yet there's not even an hour's worth of them
Zak Kerr Imagine going on miles of distance across lands and fight horrific beings only to get an hour worth of memory.
The fact that in BOTW, Link doesn't talk in order to cope with the stress of his job as Royal Knight, that is insanely depressing. I once saw an article about this, which almost glorified Link's behaviour, praising it as a great example of mental health, when... it isn't. Link actively not speaking, not communicating his own stress and anxiety to the point that he almost comes across as a silent robot, is not great mental health, it's an extreme and unhealthy way of bottling up stress and emotion. Even though it probably won't ever happen, I hope that in BOTW 2, Link's bottling up of emotions is addressed somewhat
It was brought up in Zelda's diary. If to no one else, she does get him to talk and to open up a bit, and hopes one day he'll get to express himself freely and openly again (to her credit, she never saw him any other way than unreadable and silent. She never saw the kid he used to be before all the pressure was placed on him).
To be fair, it seems like post-Resurrection Link talks a lot more(and has a lot more of a personality) than he does before the events of the gameplay. I've seen people bring up 2 reasons for this, and I kinda agree with both. Firstly, since at the start of the game he doesn't remember just how important his task is, and how much pressure it put on him, he isn't nearly as silent and serious as he was 100 years prior. Secondly, 100 years ago, everyone knew who he was, and everyone expected him and Zelda to save them all. In contrast to later on, even after he regains all his memories, very few people still know him as the hero. Thus, he no longer has to go around worrying about what people expect of him.
Be does speak he isn't just bottling up his emotions read my take in this he is far more complex. I have really long comment some one this video I just posted.
@@ShadowSkyX In a way, this is brought up the opposing way, in the DLC, in Mipha's diary. She compared the little kid she met with the adult she became, and while she is happy to see deep down, he still is the same, I think she was sadden to see the child he used to be closing himself like that. Maybe one of the reason why she glared at Revali, when he talked shit about Link in fron of her. She knows link the best out of all the champion. Revali stops to Link surface behavior and spit out his jealousy (like most rival characters with big ego do). Because Revali only knows Link as the guy chosen to be Zelda bodyguard and the chosen one. Daruk and Urbosa are interested into knowing him as a person, and see the work he quite obviously put. I would not be surprised they had training together (like depicted in Age of Calamity). Link was maybe gifted (like Revali seems to think) but he also worked with everything he had.
It can be dangerous to not talk. Like what if he gets a heart attack, and he’s just not gonna say anything?
I’ve never really thought about just how isolated Link must have felt in Breath if the Wild. It really makes me appreciate how many people he has in Tears of the Kingdom to watch his back. Amazing animation (and song!)
When you realise link doesnt even have a full day of his memories
Surprised pichachu face
Not even an hour
hardly a minute..
Link: What happened to my memories!? Ganon: .....Gone. Reduced to atoms.
I imagine he has the entire days worth of the clips of memories we just see what's important, and he most likely got his entire lifes worth of memories back after getting all of the in game memories
BOTW is actually so harsh on Link, he wakes up not knowing anything to suddenly learn everyone expects everything from him
If it wasn't for his story having a somewhat happy ending (at least until the sequel) I'd be inclined to say he has it even worse than the hero of time. Then again Aonuma said the sequel to BOTW will be even darker than Majora's Mask so that definitely doesn't bode well for the guy.
@@Jotunn96 the sequel won’t be darker, or at least he only said that the trailer was darker.
@@Pikrioling Aonuma never said the trailer was darker. That wouldn't make sense to say after revealing the trailer to everyone in the first place.
@@CDRW24 He said exactly that. And why wouldn't it make sense? He said that in a interview, not in the direct, just to clarify.
@@Pikrioling I know it was in an interview but that's not what I recall him talking about, nor would it make sense for him to say. "That trailer that you saw, that was as dark as Majora's Mask" would be a weird thing to clarify.
hi guys, thank you so much for the continued love on this video, and I'm so excited to finally announce that - y'all asked for it! - this song is coming to Spotify and other streaming services SOON!! Please see my recent community posts for more info, but the gist is that I'm targeting a release date of MAY 6TH so if all goes smoothly we'll be streaming in just a couple of weeks!❤ hope you'll look forward to it!

That's any good fandom, my dude!

Nothing can save gacha
There is no in between
I’m both but mostly deathly loneliness
This explains BoTW Link extremely well and it makes me depressed when I really think about it. Poor guy. Wakes up after 100 years with no memories only to find out that all those close to him are pretty much dead and he must carry on alone. Despite all this the art is actually really nice in this video
@@monkeydoespride That is true, but, I bet there's still a low-key sadness there xD.
Don’t forget getting murdered by a crazy flower lady /s
Maybe that's his main reason to rescue Zelda. She's the only one left from his old life.
@@annieandelsieofarendelle3294 True, true. At least the person he was closest to is still there.
@@heatherrichason82 True.
God, imagine if we saw Link have a panic attack or a breakdown because of all the stress in the sequel
Honestly, would like to see that. Main reason, it might lead to him getting better, and opening up. He also might start to talk. But, as its link, he would probably just move on, instead of haven’t a panic attack.
@@moduIusHe has been talking since he awoke.
The closest we have is after the “Dragon” Memory (avoiding spoilers for people). According to someone I know, if you watch his breathing and darting eyes, he is going through an internal “mental breakdown”. But then the dragon arrives and cuts this off.
This song hits so hard when you read Zeldas diary in the castle, learning why he doesn't speak: "With so much at stake, and so many eyes upon me, I felt it necessary to stay strong, and silently bear any burden." It ties in so tightly to this video and Link as a whole. A courageous warrior who is completely alone, he stuck to his word told to Zelda that day, and that drives his grim determination as he slowly recollects the memories. He isn't afraid to die, he isn't afraid to fail. We see in the memories time and time again him throwing himself in the face of danger to protect those he loves. I love this Link, and I feel so sorry for him, the kid has gone through so much and yet through sheer will, lives on to fight another day.
and also the fact that he never wanted to be the hero also stated in zeldas diary yet he still does all that shit

I was thinking anime ending, but definitely.
What's so upsetting is that Link wakes up and finds that his 'first' friend is just a spirit in a temporary form, an he is immediately told to go visit an elder that (probably) doesn't have much time left. After speaking with her, he is immediately forced to free robots taken control, expecting to meet the champions only to find out they're dead. His only friend is Zelda, who didn't even like Link much from the start. The pressure must be very emotional for Link, especially when he hears their voices after they use their power or recharge. If anything, I'd love to talk to Link and become his therapist-
My link definitely needs some therapy poor guy has fallen of cliffs, froze in a lake, burned to death, got crushed by a treasure chest, got destroyed by five guardians because his horse kicked him in the face, his shield broke when he was shield surfing, drowned after falling of a cliff because no stamina, sniped by a lynal he ran away from, and he worst of all got killed by a chuchu jelly which was embarrassing to say the least
I wanna give link a hug :(
Zelda ended up really liking link before the calamity though
Blizzard1-1 Before. Zelda may still like him, but she didn't in the first place. We don't even know if Link likes her back.
Well, Zelda didn't like him at first, but I think they got closer or something like that, and she started to understand him and she grew closer to him
“Sometimes the people that you make memories with become the memory”
Personally… I feel that out of all the iterations of Link, Wild is up there with enduring the worst torment through the course of his game. Time: Time travel, forcing a child to grow up then shunting him back to the past to let him grow up. Twilight: Honestly… the entire kingdom was attacked by creatures of twilight, he was turned into a wolf and taken captive for a brief moment and used by Midna Windwaker: A flooded hyrule… can’t really think of much worse. Wild: Failed in preventing the end of hyrule, almost dies, forced into stasis to be healed… Lost his friends, family, everyone he’s ever known. The only person he truly knows locked herself in the castle to prevent the evil from spreading… Wild has it rough…
Winds' world was normal to him, the only reason he stepped up for action was because his sister was taken because she could have been Zelda. Out of all the Links, Winds has the most lighthearted story. Wild definatly has the most soul-crushing one though
What about majoras mask
@@TheDracolordian Technically speaking, majora’s mask beat ocarina of time, so he succeeded in that, but when he was sent back in time to relive his childhood, skull kid interfered. Or you know, there’s that theory that Majora’s mask happens because link dies. Thats a theory though
@@TheDracolordian You remember that Wild will also have to deal with a sequel, like Time ? (So, guess he will still beat Time to it)
The thing is, by definition, if link was put in the shrine of *resurrection*, then he was genuinely killed that night

((honestly same)) but-- I HOPE I WAS?? ABLE TO KEEP THE EMOTIONS INTACT INTO ENGLISH?? :D
@@SirHamnet oh heck yeah i'm in tears
SAME
Goddamnit...I've cried an entire dam already
@@SirHamnet Kiddo, I'm not gonna lie. Link woke up with no memories of himself and was suddenly thrust into a quest to save Hyrule. And then he remembers that all hes best friends are dead and Zelda is in mortal peril. And us, as the player, just went on as if it were nothing but a game. Thanks for reminding me of the feels I felt while playing Undetale and making me question my morals. (;^;)
The reason why I love this song is probably because of the way it sorta humanises Link.
No matter how you live your life, you're breathing every day Depending on somebody else to lead you on your way But even if they disappear you're breathing all the same ‘cuz all you’ll do is drag along whomever keeps you safe The people who I cherished and the people I forgot Relationships that came and went without another thought Although I felt an inkling “this is not how things should be” I guess I really didn't know a single thing Whatever anyone may say I know I've always been this way… As I avert my gaze away from bonds I’ve severed to this day Even I cry when I’m alone Even if nobody will know ‘Cause deathly loneliness strikes on its own For all the people’s feelings that I threw off to the side Although I know I needed them to keep myself in line The punishment for running from my duty all those times Has tightened all around my chest and now begins to bite Before I know it, something in my heart begins to change I wish I had somebody else to share my everyday My body feels so numb as I succumb to prickling pain I realize now that solitude is not a strength Whatever words I said out loud I know there's no returning now And yet again I tell myself “it’s fine because it can’t be helped” No matter just how much I cry No one will be there by my side The cracks within my heart run deep with time So that it wouldn’t break- So that I wouldn’t break- Although my hands were shaking I still tried to keep it safe Oh what a simple feeling and I fail still to comprehend-! I held too tight and it broke to pieces in the end Hugging my knees, I cry in vain Knowing that not a thing will change No one will answer to my useless cries that echo in this room Even the silence of the night Even the veil of the moon light Won’t erase, won’t erase What I try to escape, and that’s the truth... There’s no way I can say All the words hid away So deathly loneliness has followed me to this day

When I hear the line: "Depending on somebody else to lead you on your way" I personally feel like that somebody is the player. Has anyone the same feeling?
YES ME!
@@StarPlatinum-ch3gi Yeah, because Link has to do what the player wants him to do. And when the player left Link "still breaths the same".

The only blessing Hylia gave Link is his inability to remember his past lives, but even then... We don't even know if that's true.
Hylia didn't give him the whole reincarnation thing, it was a curse from Demon King Demise.
@@averynunez6569 Well, it was a result of the curse, if I recall correctly. As Link reincarnates every time Hyrule is in peril.
I headcanon that when Link wields the Master Sword for the first time in his current life, he remembers his past lives.
@@SoulOfJustice1994 Somebody needs to write that so I can SOB over it.
@@averynunez6569 Reincarnation is not exclusives to Link, Zelda and Ganon. We see other characters reincarnate too like Impa, Beedle, Tingle, Malon and Talon. What Demise did is create a curse to follow his reincarnations he did not created it.
Damn, this really puts into perspective how much Link had to sacrifice to do his duty and save Hyrule
The Cost of the Freedom to do what you want is everything you had.
I actually like the lyrics from this dub better than the original lyrics, "it's fine because it can't be helped" really hit hard. Great job!
and u dont know japanese
@@Murolas lol
I feel bad for Link. He’s not just a self insert. The character has real thoughts and feelings
I do! And I don’t “goof off” I’m busy helping hyrule also I’m getting skills and other things back then once I’m ready I go to fight ganon so I’m not “goofing off”

I wish I could show this song to a non-BotW player and they could understand how sad it was. Link is a 17 year old kid that woke up with no memory of who he was or who anybody else is, and immediately has to complete a bunch of hard quests to save a princess he doesn’t fully remember. On the Great Plateau, he gets told after only a bit that all his friends are dead. He is subjected to “Deathly Loneliness” as a kid (only 17) and has no one to comfort him or help him all the time throughout his journey. As he says, there’s no way he can say everything he wanted to say to the people he wanted to say them too, because there’s no time. Everyone just expects him to stay silent and do his job, but that’s impossible for even the most courageous person to do. AND HE’S STILL A KID. Edit: This song makes me want to be transported inside of BotW, mosey on over to Calamity Ganon, and pull out a gun and shoot the everliving crap out of him until he can’t breathe or move.
I know what you mean! I don't want to face Calamity Ganon on my own, but I would definitely stay with Link throughout his journey. That way, he wouldn't be so lonely.
@@cassinoelle4289 yeah, you can tell from the memories how depressed he is on the inside having no one who cares about him
@@LoudTurtle Exactly! I wish there was a way for us to tell him how much we care about him!
@@cassinoelle4289 If you want, there’s another song about Link being lonely that I found (that’s also really good!) that I can share with you
@@LoudTurtle Sure! I'd like that! Thanks!
"we rely on your knight, our last line of defense will be link" *Link crying in the shower*
If he doesn't have a companion in the sequel I'll feel so bad. The poor guy wakes up after 100 years to all his friends being dead except Zelda who he has to save all on his own. He carries the weight of the world on his shoulders and keeps it all to himself, a silent hero.
Same
Well, that weight is sure not so bad to carry if he's got the time to do the 120 Shrines and fight Hinoxes with fkn Cuccos.
El Mew i mean, we the player are doing that, if it was actually just link he would probably free the divine beasts after getting the paraglider then get the master sword to face Ganon (Idk how to get the master sword so maybe I’m wrong)
El Mew Players Omniscience sure is good where we can lord over everything. But we’re talking about the character here not us.
@@Nope-en9bo r/woooosh
Anyone else feel a massive gut punch when the Champions pass by Link as he breaks down? It's so beautiful yet heartbreakingly sad at the same time
That was the point I went to a few tears to a downpour. To simply, yes I had a MAJOR gut punch
That almost made me cry. Several times. So yes
Yep! I was expecting the Champions to be in some sort of stasis (like, sealed within the Blights and actually fine), not fucking dead. Especially Urbosa was a gut punch for just... how STRONG she seemed... y'know?
@@elmerg7053 no wonder she died when she fought thunder blight
I love this video. It absolutely embodies the tragic side of BotW Link’s character. The guy lost everything: his memories, his friends, his family, and so much more.
He may not have died but he died
I like the thought of Link wakes up, amnesia and all that. He gets told that he needs to save Hyrule quickly and to hurry. However, he’s immediately depressed and stressing out about being the only one who can. He has no friends, no memories, nothing. Therefore, he just chills and relaxes. He purposely takes his time and explores Hyrule. Not just for his memories, but because he wants to know how it feels to not be bounded by chains. He wants to live a life where he isn’t forced to do anything for anyone. He gets the divine beasts, sure, but then he continues exploring. Link wants to be free, and he is at the moment He takes his time, wanders Has fun with travelers and helping people out A small town hero is what he wants
Here’s a bunch of random details: 0:14 There are four empty slots, representing the divine beasts and how they are not yet reclaimed 0:52 Link is traveling while smiling, in direct contrast to the final few moments of the song 1:19 this isn’t really an important detail, but you can see that Sidon is out of frame (because he’s so tall) and that the people surrounding him are from the time of the game, not the hundred years before, like the others (the champions and Zelda) later on 1:36 The moon is larger than it is normally, just how it is in-game during a blood moon 2:16 As Link’s head turns, his eyes become barely visible, again, not an important detail, but an interesting one 2:28 As the Champions begin to fade, the Memories in the background become more noticeable and prominent 2:46 yet again a small detail, this time the sheikah slate pulsing 3:13 those surrounding him are all those he remembers now, including those from the time of the game and the champions, and Zelda, her face hidden 3:43 The divine beasts are now aiming at Hyrule Castle, all is ready for the final battle Around 3:47 There’s a flash of the symbols of the divine beasts and the full triforce, now grander than it ever was 4:00 Link is now much grimmer and serious about his duty, he is no longer smiling, why would he be? He has just realized that all his friends except one are dead or dying, his memory is so far gone he doesn’t even have a full day of his regular life to recall. And he is about to duel his greatest fears taken form. He has little understanding of who he is and why he must face this calamity... He just wants a friend.
@HAMOTTOS , as far as I understand, it’s just symbolic of his new relationships passing by so quickly
But at the end, he smiles again. He has Zelda back, even if the others are gone. He has a friend. Even if his old life is missing, he has someone to help fill in the gaps. He's not alone, anymore. So when all is said and done, he smiles.
This made me cry omg
Nice
I would like to make a joke about the last time stamp is him going into complete genocide mode but I can’t or it would hurt me too much I feel like I am about to cry.
ham this is so good!!!! literally everything about this cover is on point??? I stan a legend!!!!!!
omg RACHIE FJKRLR WOW THANK U!! YOUR KIND WORDS!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
ITS SO HARD TO FIND OR MAKE A PERFECT COVER FOR A JAPANESE SONG BC SO MUCH IS SAID AND THE LANGUAGE DIFFERENCES GET IN THE WAY OF THE LYRICS AND THEN THIS EXISTS AND IT'S JUST INCREDIBLE JEVSHKSGSKSGDKSGDKDDDJDK
This Is so Good Until I Use DU Recorder To Listen This Song By Just opening The Galery but im too Lazy To Download This To the Offline
You mean a legend OF ZELDA? ....I don't have many friends.
there's a Japanese version of this!? where!?
Heroes never give up. I always believed Link had some mental issues and other hardships but we never really saw the details. Link is silent because so many people are relying on him, and he doesn’t want anyone to worry about any problems the only person keeping Hyrule standing has. So he keeps quiet. I feel so bad for Link. But he pulled through in the end and saved Hyrule. Can’t wait for the sequel!
and the fact that he never wanted to be a hero makes this worse as stated in zeldas diary
I would pay good money to see this anime
I will pay for the Purducion of it if I could
Same
I would love to see that anime then
Ikr
Ok thus needs to happen now like actually
You know the entire franchise is like life, when you were young you were happy to save the land and its people but never put much thought to link or his happyness ,but when you growup you and learn how dark the entire franchise is and that link was actually suffering without saying a single word it just makes me cry
That is a legit reason for his silence. Maybe it's a conscious choice.
I'm no crying your crying
The only recorded evidence of link speaking is in the personal diary of Zelda and it’s just so sad all also there only like 7 scenes of link smiling in a timeline of over 10000 years it’s depressing
I come back to this song time and time again, and only now did I pick up on Link heaving at the end. Personally, I see it as taking place RIGHT as Zelda asks if he remembers her. Him breathing tells us that he's hardly stopped to even BREATHE through this entire ordeal. This poor 17 year old boy has been running around Hyrule, struggling to even breathe properly.
How I wish this was a series... I would watch the entire thing
I mean. It's a game.
@@chickencancanyt8804 Yes. And I wish there was a series as well
Honestly, it would work pretty well as a TV series. I think probably two seasons, with a special (maybe 2-4 episodes) covering the final fight. I've vaguely sketched out an idea for how the series would play out if anyone's interested.
3:25 - 3:31 "No one will answer to my useless cries that echo in this room" My heart broke into frigging pieces at that scene, and it shattered into a million splinters with the lyrics. Its the perfect scene to emphasis how botw link lost all of the people he cared about in one fell swoop, and all the ways it might affect him. Whoever drew that, kudos. And the way the words are emphasised, as if the singer really is crying out, and the mournful instrumentals - kudos. Just, it played a large part in that heartbreak and that is a seriously good job done
Alle Booklover that PTSD and survivors Guilt is going to hit hard
This happened to my dad?
Link And Zelda's Son oh yeah your dad was and still is going through the loss of his friends a loved ones. That and they tried to demolish his house
Whoa I didn't know
Link And Zelda's Son that silence was only harder for him
Pretty much an Anime opening for breath of the wild
Very true giant spoilers and all
...If we did get an anime, would it be a good anime? If it's a good anime going into Link's inner struggles, I might watch it. Then again the last time there was an animated series for Legend of Zelda...well, I've never seen it myself so I can't judge, but everyone kind of seems to hate it - that can't be a good sign as a Zelda fan, if it's anything similar to The Last Airbender movie...
I recently got this game, and for me, the moment where I cried was the cutscene after freeing Vah Rudania when Daruk was aiming it at Hyrule Castle. The moment where he notices Yunobo, his descendant, and give him a thumbs up, that fucking hit me hard.
Yo, his smile at the end, why did it feel relatable? Like he's still going through everything, but instead of the smile at the beginning, this one's trying to say "Hmm? Oh! I'm alright! Let's get going, there's still much to do!" it's that **I don't want anyone to think less of me or worry about me**
The fucking guitar riff hits a spot and makes me feel an emotion I can’t seem to describe... it’s just so well executed.
Me too, it gave me an eargasm.
EVERYONE GIVE LINK A HUG HE DISERVES IT.
We need a botw anime who agrees with me
Tis I legend of Zelda tv show. Boom
If we ever get one, Zeldas voice needs a new actor or the current one needs to improve.

Ari well excuse me princess
Rebel Friend it's acutely well eeeexxxxxxcccccuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuusssssssssssssssse me princess.
With the new totk trailer, we now know link is not alone anymore!
I always remember that despite the memes, Link is a broken hero. If only we get to see this more out of him.
That's probably the reason we don't see more of it
@@bravesttacos wdym?
@@PlumpProductions3545 I mean link feels as if he needa to be this strong silent warrior to deal with all the stress so by design of his character it makes sense we don't see that
@@bravesttacos Even, silent characters need to have moments where there thoughts shine through. Kratos from the PS4 games is a good example of a silent character done right.
I like how he starts out kinda cheerful - he doesn't remember anything but he's getting to have conversations with a jolly old fellow, he's getting cool things to mess with, and he isn't really encountering anything dangerous. Even when the dude turns out to be a ghost, one of the things he does is point you to an entire town of people to learn about stuff from. When he first encounters the statue of Mipha, though, he immediately loses the high as the weight of what's happening settles on his shoulders. He gradually becomes more withdrawn and solemn until the segment at 2:55 where he's emotionally empty barely even able to go through the motions. Finally, something spurs him to motion and he begins to properly grieve all that he lost as he's filled with a grim determination to finish the job and makes his way inexorably towards Calamity.
And the old zora people hate Link and blame him for mipha death before he saves the divine beast
This is surely why Mipha was picked. Outside of being one of the only two with a monument (with Daruk, but his wouldn't be held in the pic). Zora's domain is the closest destination (so would normally be the first place to go, if you were logical about it) She was his childhood friend, a really dear one at this. A beloved princess of the Zora, hence their resentment. All of the other, none of them realise Link is the actual hero from 100 years ago (except Riju). The goron and ritos do find similarities but do not realise this is because this is Link, not just some descendant of his. Riju puts two and two together, maybe because she is the one meant to help us. (because of such, no one in the other cities has a reason to resent Link. But, the Zoras live for a long time, and clearly knows this is Link. Hence why most blame him among the eldest. The youngest are more forgiving, even though, their childhood surely was ruined partly by the Calamity)
@@mira3498 no they don’t
@@tanjirokamado8845 have you talked to them?
The music inside Mipha's divine beast best symbolizes the true tone of the game, whether it's the first beast you free or the last. It's the only song that gets progressively darker and more ominous the more terminals you activate. Are you in denial that she'll be dead or afraid to admit the truth? Quietly enraged? Do you believe destroying the blight will bring her back? Or does knowing you failed her put you in a mental downward spiral, aka depression? The track instills anxiety and fear of what he knows, wants to know, doesn't know, and doesn't want to know.
This game saved me from committing suicide, I was in a depressed state when I first got it, when I bearly started the game and heard the opening music I realized how beautiful it was...I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t of that game, when I played it I realized that the game is a mix of realism and fantasy but the common sense is realistic, I’m still recovering from depression but this helped me a lot....online friends also helped me bc my irl “friends” were the ones bullying me and I felt lost everywhere....when Nintendo said that the player can relate to link, they nailed it.
I'm happy you didn't commit suicide :)
And like link you persevered! Keep it up man I’m glad you’re here :)
I'm so glad you didn't commit suicide! Remember that God loves you, and he has a plan for you. Things will get better in the end, I promise you. In the meantime, pray for Jesus to give you the strength to make it through those hard times. He will provide.
That's beautiful
Good job champ, you can do this suicide won't solve anything it'll just hurt the people around you start by doing what you love to do maybe replay botw again
Link may not have died but truly he died after he lost his memories he lost himself he lost his memories he lost his family its like he started a whole new life with no time to figure anything out
When you’re happy you enjoy the music When you’re sad you understand the lyrics
Baby shark do do do
@TheBestHylian Sorry
Imagine being the deku tree seeing countless incarnations of link come before him, knowing this child has been called upon once again to risk his life over and over. Wild link possibly being the saddest because he knows he used to have a family and friends but can’t remember any of it, which is arguably crueler than remembering nothing from his past lives. Imagine being the deku tree and when link stands in front of him he can’t tell the difference between the current one and the ones that stood before him before.
i mean the deku isnt immortal, he still dies yknow

Man I think people forget how tragic botw link is. First go ask anyone who’s been in a coma for a few *months* it’s like earth shattering. Now imagine 100 years. You have no idea who you are and a strange female voice is calling out to you to save the world. Your cold and alone. Having to fight non stop to just survive. And slowly you regain your memory’s… and everyone you ever cared for is dead. You find out the voice is the princess. And you have no idea if she’s even still alive.

Every once in a while, You Tube obliges and randomly decides to do it's fuckin' job when people need it for emotional support or just for them to have something to relate to. KZhead recommended to me songs that made me feel good or maybe cry when I was having a bad time. And the tears felt good. Emotions feel good.
This made me realize how emotionally invincible link is in botw and totk, link in this video has a realistic reaction to his world. But in the actual game he only ever seems to suffer when something hit him, or if hes to cold or hot. He never seems to suffer from being alone in game. But a normal person would.
That's because our reaction is is, I think. For the same reason he's so androgynous, for the same reason he's quiet and doesn't speak much, it's because he's an avatar.
Ahah, you remember "don't walk on the flowers"😂 Good AMV, it's beautiful❤️

It’s honestly kinda sad. Link wakes up, with no recollection of what happened 100 years ago and is put to the task of stopping Ganon from infecting hyrule. And the more memories he uncovers, the more he becomes the stoic and quiet knight he once was. He needs a hug

Link has always been my idol because he is a silent hero, he may have his own problems but he always keeps them to himself because he doesn't want to be a burden to anyone. So, instead he stays silent and helps anyone else with problems they might face.
That's why I relate to him a lot 😅
I've had a recent big Zelda phase lately, and going back and seeing all the videos I used to watch just feels so good. All the ones I've been rewatching, including this one, really just make me feel something, even if they're for more recent games, like BOTW. Though, BOTW's newness kinda flashed before my eyes-
When I first watched the original PV, I cried so hard because I felt so utterly heartbroken for Link, and now listening to your cover, the same tears are brought back. I love this so so much and will definitely be listening to it on repeat for god knows how long

Lyrics: No matter how you live your life you're breathing everyday Depending on somebody else to lead you on your way But even if they disappear, you're breathing all the same Cause all you'll do is drag along whomever keeps you safe (Brief instrumental) The people who I cherished and the people I forgot Relationships that came and went without another thought Although I felt an inkling this is not how things should be I guess I really didn't know a single thing (Chorus) Whatever anyone may say I know I've always been this way As I avert my gaze away from bonds I've severed to this day Even I cry when I'm alone Even if nobody will know Cause deathly loneliness strikes on it's own ( Brief instrumental) For all the people's feelings that I threw off to the side Although I know I needed them to keep my self in line The punishment from running from my duty all those times Has tightened all around my chest and now begins to bite Before I know it something in my heart begins to change I wish I had somebody else to share my everyday My body feels so numb as I succumb to prickling pain I realize now that solitude is not a strength (Chorus) What ever words I said out loud I know there's no returning now And yet again I tell myself "It's fine because it can't be helped" No matter just how much I cry No one will be there by my side The cracks within my heart run deep with time (Instrumental) (Bridge) So that it wouldn't break So that I wouldn't break Although my hands were shaking I still tried to keep it safe Oh what a simple feeling and I fail still to comprehend I held too tight and it broke in pieces in the end (Chorus) Hugging my knees I cry in vain Knowing that not a thing will change No one will answer to my useless cries that echo in this room Even the silence of the night Even the veil of the moonlight Won't erase won't erase what I try to escape and that's the truth There's no way I can say all the words hid away So deathly loneliness has followed me to this day (Instrumental)
Idk why but I began to read it loud when I was like in the 5. Sentence😂
The lyrics are literally in the video. What's the point of commenting them?
@@taintedmyth0s636 I do it so people can read at their own pace. Some people read slower than others. That's all
@@taintedmyth0s636 I needed them to sing along to the video as it played, I haven't memorized them and they come and go from the screen too quickly, so yeah 😅😅😅
Oh and btw, in the first paragraph, "you" should be "you'll" and "something in my head began to change" should be "heart began to change" Otherwise they're good I think, thanks! ~
too relatable
💀 all of your friends die and you trapped in a shrine to sleep for 100 then once you awaken to have to remember all of the pain and trauma and then you have to go through tests from monks to gain a sword to defeat the evil?
Link needs a hug... The person who made this music vid needs a hug... We all need a hug😢 Hahaha amazing animation, music, feels, perfect songamation. Well done. You got my daughter to see this and spread it to me! Well done! Keep it up! Looking forward to more!
Although I don't know if Wild had the worst, (Time might still hold that unwanted crown) he was definitely the loneliest. All other Links had a companion, someone who went with them literally everywhere. Wild had a slate, a cold block of stone that within remained chosen sections of memory. Even from the beginning, he was alone. Depending on how fast you do the shrines, Link has the companionship of the King, and even that is really only if we look for him. Only a spare few minutes spent with the King until he fades into eternal rest. For me, I imagine that the Wolf Link Amiibo helps Wild, even if just by a bit. He can't be with him everywhere, but he can try. Also, the Champions Gifts. From time to time, Link hears the voices of those he was supposed to know, and that's one sentence telling him that their powers have returned. Kass and the Champion Heirs as well. They help him as well, connecting him to the world of people, pulling him from the world of silence and loneliness. Yeah, he goofs off and is carefree, but he also is alone, guilt-ridden for a world he doesn't know, holding the gifts of people he doesn't know, and trying to answer the call of a princess he doesn't know. One Hylian is both free and chained.
No, I do believe Botw Link did have it the worst, OOT Link at least still rememberd what it was before he had to get the spiritual stones, but BOTW Link was thrown into Hyrule with no recollection of who he was, or what this place was, but he went forward, trying hard to figure out what happened when he learns almost all of his friends are dead and he failed as a hero 100 years ago.
However, all the links seem to have lost all their friends. WW has the red dragon guy, BOTW the champions,King Bosphoramus hyrule, etc. Twilight Princess had midna, I forgot which one but Fi, even though she’s still there, you can’t interact with her, and links uncle i think in links awakening. He’s lost a lot of friends.
@@KinokoKomedianCheese That may be true, but the only adventures in which Link lost this many friends are BotW and Awakening, in every other there are only one or two losses. Here, we have not only the four champions and the king, but nearly everyone Link knew (except Zelda and the Zora), combined with the fact that he had forgotten about all of them. So, I agree that this Link had the worst. Also, I think with Links Uncle you mean the one from A Link to the Past, who is alive in the ending.
I noticed you used the nicknames Time and Wild, many others use the names of the games. So I was wondering fellow Linked Universe fan? (If not then that's a bit awkward)
Confusion 600
This hits so much harder after Age of Calamity Playing Breath Of the Wild feels so... I don’t know, bare? Lonely? In AoC you always have allies by your side, but botw is so barren. It feels grim playing botw now
but i prefer botw thats why i bought aoc, their death was NOT in vain. a time travelling robot guardian can NEVER erase that fact, no matter how much it changes. timeline wise.
@@haruhisuzumiya6650 Don’t get me wrong here, Breath Of the Wild is 100% still my favourite game, not just out of the two of them, but my favourite game in general. If anything, AoC simply made me look at botw differently. Like it’s the bad outcome instead of the optimal one. And I’m really into it, it feels like playing botw for the first time again- just more...sad
@@whizzerbrown1349 wanna know what’s even sadder about my life, my game is in the fallen timeline q-q
AoC was just a nice “what if situation”
Fax
I need a TotK sequel to this.
Yes
The "no matter just how much I cry, No one will be there by my side" went through my would and heart
If they ever make a Breath of the Wild anime, this needs to be the OP. No exceptions.
THIS IS A BOTW ANIME (OR WHATEVER THE HEAK ANIME IS)
@@danmcginley6253 They prob mean a whole botw ANIME *SERIES*"
at first i was really enjoying it and then one of the lyrics hit really close and.... ouch
this has a lot of likes are you guys ok? :P
Um, if I said no?
Dude, same! I've been feeling quite a bit of this lately (except the part about having to save the world).
This song Makes me wanna Cry
This song makes me cry... . The Tears of the Wild ;-;
I am speechless with how amazing this is. The animation, the art style, the song, the story behind each frame. You can feel his emotions and it portrays so beautifully! Very well done; amazing job and fantastic song!
Raise your hand if you would be links friend 🤚
Me, watching this at 3:21 am : *Haha, my emotional stability is in danger."*
You deserve more likes
thats when i watched it XD
I’m watching it at 6:21am after waking up, not being able to go to sleep and seeing this in my recommended. It’s fate
SAME.
@@rua8288 I'm watching it again and it's 2:12 am now
Throughout the song and in the Zelda fandom I've often seen people say Link ran away from his responsibility, but like he didn't? It confuses me because he was always going to fight Ganon he didn't intentionally get half dead and wake up 100 years later
Iam confused by that too
@@firsiosarc1344 I think it's because most players do some/many the side quests and go exploring before actually fighting Ganon so it seems like Link is 'running away from his responsibilities' or 'procrastinating' when he (aka the player) does that.
Yeah, it doesn't make sense why people think that... especially since there is a memory you can find in-game where link throws himself in front of three guardians protecting Zelda and that is his death leading into where we start in Botw.
Ikr people can real stupid
@@kellycowley3535 true I hate it the player does something and then just blames the protagonist
Bro I just realized that the lights in the Shrine of Ressurection blink with the beat that's such a cool lil minor detail
I feel like people are not understand and the meaning of this song. Lots of people are saying that they image that link cries a lot saying about his responsibilities as a knight are difficult on him. This is not was this song is telling nor is that what link is about in that game. Link does not remember anything in this song. Whether if In your playthough link did in this song it seems quite apparent in this part of the song. The people who i cherished and the people I forgot. Relationships came and went without another thought. Although I felt an inkling this is not how things should be. I guess I really didn't know a single thing. This is a import part of the song especially considering the last lines. Link is a new person. Long are the days where he is just some silent royal knight. He doesn't remeber that. The new link is cheerful and expressive. But so many people around him expect him to be who he was before. Even if he feels that he has always been himself because he doesn't remeber himself before. This is shown in this part of the song. Whatever anyone may say I know I've always been this way. As I avert my gaze from bond I severed to this day. The people who knew before don't know him and think he is someone else. But they can't understand he is a new person who likes who he is. So he turns away from them because he has to. Later in the song the lyrics say that link longs for some sort of emotional connection. This part after might be hard to understand for some of you. Link feels that he must disconnect himself from everyone if no one cares about him or sees him as the person they say he is. But he still wants an emotional connection with someone. He realizes that his detachment is not a strength and that he is perfectly replicating what he did before a the old version of himself. He doesn't want to be like that. He wants to be someone else. Link has identity issues. The end of the song is indeed sad. Link wants someone to care about who his is now. Everyone tells him he was someone else but he know he is himself. But he knows his much how much he wants some to love the new him but he knows if he voices the way he feels it will just pass through people and they won't understand. Making his useless cries echo. Because people just don't get what he means. Even the veil of the moonlight won't erase what he tries to escape. What tries to escape is everythinking he is someone else and he is also trying the pain he feels because he feels no one will understand him. In short he is a wandering adventure with an identity issues is constantly told he is this great hero that he doesn't remember and he want one person to love him for who he is now but it all very still hard for him to get his thoughts together on all this. He believes no one will live him for who he is ever. This is the moral I got from this song. He isn't a knight who cries because of responsibility he is everything I mentioned above. He is lonely because he believes nobody will live him. So reply telling me if you agree with me or not. I really liked this song and thought I'd give my take on what it is about. Bye.
. ..god I love lyric anaylsis ;w;
@@ForenzaAudio Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.
@@phantomd8789 Yeah! Lyric anaylsis was something school got me sucked into but GOD it really does help when relaying and how things correlate with one another and I do it all the time now.lol This was a grade A analysis you did uvub
@@ForenzaAudio Thank you! For the past year an maybe a little more I've been quite frustrated with Zelda youtubers because they are feeding messages to Nintendo that we want all this traditional Zelda stuff. The reason I liked botw is because it got rid of all that old stuff and did something new.
Holy shit how long did it take write this?! I agree tho
