How did a motorcycle end up in Zelda? - The Story of the Master Cycle Zero 

The only thing it’s missing is to have his words be glowing blue, and the monk’s dialogue sound plays along with it.

I LOVE this theory lol

@@arsalanafroz I like to think it could be true since the Minish were supposed to be in BotW but they got cutout 🤣

That’s such an awesome idea

Zeltik forgot to mention the Master Cycle was huge before being shrunk down and turned into a rune.

The main four are bigger to the Zora, Goron, Rito and Gerudo than the cycle is to the minish

Exactly! It feels like the world was designed for the bike, not the other way around.

It's baffling how a completely optional bike item, that serves as nothing more than a congratulatory item is much more polished than another bike that's supposed to be a game's vital point. Really speak of the game's quality, huh?

True, it was so janky in Scarlet before you get the high jump there were so many cliffs you could almost climb but you never actually made it

Haha comparing a Pokémon game to Zelda is like comparing canned food to a 3-star restaurant.

@Bloo Berri I think the Xenoblade devs helped with optimization, possibly? Can't say that's 100% true, but they're amazing at switch dev as well.

There's been several modern things in several Zelda games

Funnily enough in the context of the game it's ancient.

I like to imagine this sounding like the style of Herve Villichaize.

I mean, several Zelda games have had sci-fi elements, with tech that surpasses even our own, even before BOTW. Look at Skyward Sword. The desert area (past) has intelligent machines, and even pirate androids.

And mine has massively shrunk. How can the guy in charge of Zelda have such a shit grasp of what Zelda is.

And put a tooth and nail into the bike.

so true

He learned from the best. Look up how Miyamoto convinced his coworkers to give Mario a flight power-up and a mount.

Are you serious? A motorcycle in a LoZ was an absolutely abhorrent design choice. It has no place in an LoZ game.

While that would be cool we saw a good amount of horse riding in the newest trailer

It better does, i want my Motorcycle Back

Starter gear?

@@Zacian2.0 what about Upgrading our Bike?

Considering that was a function of the Sheikah Slate I unfortunately have to doubt this unless it exists via the news switch looking one. Assuming that it is the upgrade to it.

I still want that game to happen

I mean, my boy most certainly is popular with the fairer sex in BotW: not one, but two princesses, a ninja, and plenty of townsfolk across the land all seem to agree

hey i recognize you from twitter!! i see you on my timeline all the time haha

@@ASouthernNerdget a life

@Southern Nerd????????

@Southern Nerd hey, you're the "most sane Zeltik viewer " 😂😂😂.

@Southern Nerd hey, you're the "most sane Zeltik viewer " 😂😂😂.

yeah, it's a very nice challenge for players who are already very familiar with the game mechanics.

I still keep hoping Zeltik will make a video centered on that some day.

Yeah, but I never used - I killed everyone with lynel bow x5 with ancient arrows lol

Oh, english name for that weapon is cool. What do you think about french name "tétralame mort-subite" ("tetra" for "four", "lame" for "blade" and "mort subite" for "instant death") ?

Yeah, I wish that was the reward instead of the bike, really 😅

plenty of country's do not require insurance at all

The master cycle zero has smart brakes and sensors that stop the bike just before hitting anyone.

Link is a noble in a feudal society, he doesn’t have to worry about such trivialities as the courts are on his side. 😜

_Don't need to worry about insurance when money literally spawns out of grass...._

If bokos had rights link would be sued into oblivion

The more I hear about Aonuma, the more wholesome he sounds! The fact that he not only wants to pour his passions into the Zelda series, but also the dreams of his children, is absolutely incredible!

Aonuma was interviewed by a Guardian?!? /s

@@broski7792 that definitely doesn't sound worrying :D

@@broski7792 Don't worry, that was before the calamity!

Do you hope that there will be some kind of information transferred from your BotW game file to TotK? For example: You get to keep your horses, your house (and all the weapons and pictures inside), Hetsu's poop that could be used to trade in something in TotK, Terry Town, and maybe your Motorcycle (let's say after you've completed the basic balloon, car, and hovercraft assembly).

@@BigGoronSword this comment has aged VERY well

@@yoyokid3735 thanks, but I still want my bike. Imagine what you could build attaching your bike. I've tried making a horse-powered machine, but no success. Not to sound like a brat but, I wish there were real rewards for completionists, not just a shiny metal.

@@BigGoronSword after all they removed every sheikah tech from the face of hyrule, but the slate still remains (damn you zelda), probably meaning the rune still exists

@@BigGoronSword we'll just have to wait and find out

The Divine Beast are support so Lonk can ride on in and finish him off. I wonder if the Master Cycle had weapons what those would look like.

For people who dont see the bike fitting the game, game literallly has giant animal magical tech machines instead of plain turrets, it doesnt have to make sense

The headlight being an unironically helpful & practical feature is my favourite thing about the bike ngl

I did that on my first playthrough and didn't get why some friends thought it was tricky or even a puzzle, the bike let's you see just fine! They reminded me that the bike takes a load of time and effort to actually unlock, which I did so long ago I'd totally forgotten you had to do the whole DLC lol

Same! lol.

There are still references to it, in a way. In the Age of Calamity DLC, where Zelda gets a weaponize recreation of the bike, there are alternate versions of it designed to work somewhat differently. There’s an attack-focused one designed like a bird & a defense-focused one designed like a donkey. Not quite the original wolf, but fairly close!

I didn't realize you couldn't take it into the desert. What happens if you try?

@@mbii7667it just doesn’t let you summon it. Then again, you can use cheats to bypass that restriction

@@mr.kenway4554 interesting. Thanks for the reply.

I’d love to take it out there too, but I wouldn’t be able to get much momentum in the sand

@@mbii7667 It just tells you that you can't and instantly despawns it.

A giant engine makes a bunch of sense. I always thought the last divine beast dungeon in the DLC was the master cycles engine and we had to go in and "fix" it. There's lava and ice areas inside, like an engine and cooling system. Plus (if my memory is correct) therea a sort of engine block shape to the central area, with piston like forms on the ceiling.

Should have waited till the end, Zeltik brought up the same thing haha

thank you so much!

@@Zeltik Hi zeltik, great fan !!! Pls upload more videos regarding tears of the kingdom , those are great and makes me impatient to play the game btw, great fan dude!!!!

Always have been!

Not to mention the delightful music that is makes its way into the your ears when you ride for long enough, with a version for the day and another for the night

Not to mention horses don't require fuel!

Very well said

The thing is, Zelda always had technology mixed with the medieval fantasy setting; The first game had robots and proximity traps; A Link to the Past had laser turrets and the hookshot; Ocarina of Time has a jukebox, bombchu and fans; The entirety of Majora's Mask, etc.

The original idea for the original game was to have Link travel between the distant past and distant future, so the idea of tech has always been in the series

Yes, while the master cycle model seems to not be that big before becoming a rune, I still think we were actually inside it's engines.

It's difficult to say how much bigger it is, if at all, but it's really not difficult to tell that it's much too small to be where the dungeon took place

It’s definitely the same size when it’s first revealed. It does look bigger, but that’s because of the forced perspective of it being propped up as it was.

it should have transferred to new saves imo

Game should’ve had a NG+ mode for this reason. I stopped playing BOTW simple because I’ve done everything 100%

Exactly I was like cool I got a motorcycle. What should I do next? Oh yea I've completed everything. So I messed around on the Bike for 30 minutes then went to go kill Calamity Ganon THE END!

@@songoku9348 Absolutely i would have loved a new game plus. I think it should include keeping all the hearts and stamina and inventory slots and by extension korok seeds you have collected. I would say it should also transfer any upgrades for armor you had in your og file so when in the NG+ file when you get that armor its maxed already or has the upgrade level from your og file. Also Sheikah Slate upgrades, compendium and runes. Thats just me though.

This is one of my biggest pet peeves within all of gaming. They give you the best stuff when there's literally nothing else to do in the game. Give me the OP stuff in the middle of the game so I have some time and reason to use it.

Imagine (this is if you played on switch) you keep all your items and shrines and stuff when you start in TOTK.. Or even wake up in your house in hateno village if you had it unlocked

@@purploid that would be incredible

Hope we get motorized sheilds that could both serve as propulsor to be used in combat and as a board when shield surfing xD

Exactly

Yeah, I hope they let us make prettier vehicles, the ones in the trailer are super ugly.

​@@Mari_Izu That's not what they were asking though.

i mean, they had trains and boats, so its not that much of a stretch.

boats are ancient bro. not the same as a bike lmfao.

@@Skillfullfilms89 boats are normal. Trains are a little goofy in Zelda but ST is goofy by design so it never felt weird. A motorbike in a mainline Zelda is on another level

I always wonder why people get weirded out by a bike in a game where the dungeons were four giant robots you can operate with a tablet xD

they had teleportation device, huge mechanical beasts, a camera, i think its not really immersion breaking to have motorcycles.

I don't think so.

@@tumultuousv i mean, right before that you fight a monk that can change size

@@mebisanimationsandotherstu8977 yeah but the bike is links divine beasts. Can the other divine beasts shrink?

Vehicles have been in Zelda games for a while

?

Y tho

@@DEATHDRAG0 I don't hate it. But, not a huge fan either because it pulls me out of the game. A bit in the same way Ed Sheeran did with his cameo in Game Of Thrones.

I mean that's fair. Once you get it you pretty much beat the whole game though so it's cool to get something to just mess around with

This is the same game where you travel inside a giant robot camel to get it to shoot Ganon with a laser beam

@@Zeltik which was also stupid af. The entire game was just bad and not at all a good direction for LoZ to move in.

@@CertifiedClapaholic that's fair, you're entitled to your opinion. I actually completely agree with you in that I prefer Zelda to be traditional swords and sorcery fantasy, but technology has been a part of the Zelda series for years- trains in ST, ancient robots in SS, great bay temple in MM, mazaal in TMC, tower of the gods in TWW, city in the sky and temple of time in TP, etc. so it's nothing new, BotW just stepped it up.

@@CertifiedClapaholiccan you elaborate? I’m a little confused on why it’s not a good direction

@@jefferblue8617 they turned it into a grind. The shrines were bland and there were waaaay too many of them. The 4 beast dungeons were unremarkable in any way and hard to distinguish from one another. The breaking weapons and the absolute GRIND that you have to go through just to get the Master Sword was straight up insulting. And to make matters worse, the shit STILL BREAKS. The towers and sense of freedom the game gives you is compromised by the fact that the discovery of new areas is a fruitless endeavor. The items you find feel like a general waste of time. The Blood Moons were beyond frustrating. None of these features were ever a part of past LoZ games and they should have never been introduced to the series. They literally made a Ubisoft/Skyrim clone with LoZ skins instead of just making a LoZ game.

If I run into tingle...I will blast him out of the air

So what I think is going to happen in the beginning, so don’t like adventure in the cave, drink some water and eventually try to cross the bridge with her animal, but it doesn’t wanna go over so Lincolns forced jump over the gap and Zelda and link continue eventually finding a temple. They enter the temple and explore Zelda taking pictures of all the ruins in ancient scripture Eventually, they would go down a staircase, and see Gannon Dorf Zelda would go up to him and take a look or we would say he twitches. She would eventually go back to link and hand him the torch so he can finish off Gannon Dorf before he can, Gannon, Dorf, anger makes his malice a lot stronger, his malice, eventually attacks a rat on the stairwell where Zelda and link see then they turn around to see the chest has a bunch of malice forcing the hand off Gannon Dorf now free looks at Zelda and link and causes the part that Zelda is standing on to collapse. It collapses a little bit, but not fully set a tries to climb up, and Link tries to reach his hand out for but before he can help her cannot work for Taksim he tries to use the master sword to repel the malice away, but get his arm burned and the master short destroyed. He’s eventually forced to jump to save Zelda and she falls, but the hand saves Link and uses the rewind ability to heal him which also fixes his outfit. Can I drop size unlit so he can try to move his body with a platform beneath them starts to move, can you do it looks up into it the air and his eyes burn bright with malice again now free he eventually talks to link a little bit and then tries to kill him but the hand in desperate need fuses with links, burned arm and teleports them to a sky island as Gannon Dorf lifts up his hands where malice would lift up the castle link eventually wakes up they destroyed sky building, and eventually has the choice to choose to put on ancient armor, or to keep his armor. He had back in the cave, or he would jump down, making it to the tutorial island wall Zelda, she would fall landing on mushrooms having to do first the cave with malice, infected monsters this is how I think the game will begin

@@blakelandry9313 sooo... the trailers, yeah?
