Johnny vs. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity 

A Link to the Past: “The blade of evil’s bane” Ocarina of Time: “The blade that gets s**t done” Wind Waker: “The blade that f**king matters!” Twilight Princess: “The blade that tips 20%” Skyward Sword: “The blade that WOW, TOOK A WHILE TO GET THIS TIME!” A Link Between Worlds: “The blade that once again, gets s**t done” Breath of the Wild: “The blade that OH MY GOD IS TRYING TO KILL ME!!!” Age of Calamity: “The blade that no longer requires a recharge period”

Nintendo: Step one reboot the original zelda series Step two immediately fuck with the timeline

Age of Calamity is literally just the Good Future Ending.

Breath of the Wild: EVERYONE DIES! The end! 🙂 Age of Calamity: EVERYONE LIVES! The end! 🙂

"Sit on this one" you know damn well that price ain't dropping

Rivali: GEE, I'VE BEEN SAVED BY LINK! How swell!

I feel like this game went the direction it did because Koei Tecmo loves having as many playable characters as possible and they wouldn’t be able to add those certain characters if they stuck solely to what we thought it was gonna be, and they’re too popular in the context of this era for them to ignore I feel. Or at least that’s the vibe I got considering the first game, their other Warriors games and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3.

I kinda like how it’s possible to immediately tell that it’s a different timeline because Link doesn’t already have the master sword. Botw1 link is said to have pulled out the sword at the age of 13. So that was a cool thing to realize after playing the game

Oh Johnny...you won’t be complaining about how much content is in Age of Calamity when you do your Round 2 for Hyrule Warriors 1. Oh boy, you’re going to THANK Age of Calamity for only having so much.

"You win this time you absolute taint" had me rolling on the floor lmfao

6:34 Haha, Johnny wants to be degraded by Urbosa! ...Same to be honest :|

The shirt you're wearing looks a little baggy... As in i think im noticing your progress for weight loss, keep up the good work Johnny!! (Work like content and weight loss)

"And a Giant F**k you Lazer to seal the deal" that's my favorite line in this video

In the background you can hear Ted groaning while having to grind another Hyrule Warriors release.

Nintendo: We made Breath of The Wild to do away the split timeline. Koei Tecmo: Hold my spear

Wait... An opening sponsor that isn't Honey, Raid, or AFK Arena and it's a VPN but not NORD?! this year's really ending with a bang, huh.

"You really don't need that mop" But how will I scrub all the floors in Hyrule?

Legends of Hyrule: time lines are complicated let's combine them Age of calamity: we could or...... Let's not do that

While I don’t mind the alternate timeline direction I kinda wish we had two routes for the game, one ”canon” to Breath of the Wild where yes, everything goes to hell and then this as an alternative.

15:09 - 15:36 My thoughts exactly when trying to do all of the adventure maps in Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

I think that they should have given us both possible endings, the one where everyone still dies, despite the efforts of Terrako, closer to what actually happened before Breath of the Wild, and the one where we change history. Personally, I would have been more disappointed if they removed the what-if scenario, because as I played Breath of the Wild that's what I wanted to do when I heard about all the advanced technology present in that world, but having both endings would have still been pretty nice. I'm having a lot of fun with this game, even though I'm still pretty early into the game, since I'm alternating playing this and another game (Bug Fables, if you're curious). If you like Musou games and the world of Breath of the Wild, this is a really, really good game, totally worth it, even though I agree that the first Hyrule Warriors is still the best one, thanks to its crossover nature and it being an actual definitive edition. Anyway, Happy New Year everyone!

Hard disagree with the music portion. This game’s OST is legendary. I had to stop what I was doing several times to just listen to the music while playing, and even though I have already put +100 hours into the game, I still listen to the OST while reading.

the one big perk of this game compared to the first one, though, is that you don't need a literal gazillion hours to complete it. Heck, barely even any grinding at all needed. You can actually manage a 100% in 60 hours tops if you don't get stuck looking for the damn koroks. Shame that completion rewards are so incredibly underwhelming.

thanks Johnny, hope you have a good new year's and (hopefully) 2021. you're an inspiration to me and many others out there, and I can't wait to see what you do next

Happy New Year, Johnny! Thank you for years of wonderful videos, and thank you in particular for helping make 2020 better for me with all the great content to look forward to.

In defense of their alternate timeline decision. The lore set up in botw would have given them minimal room to do a dynasty warriors style story and locked them off from a lot of iconic botw stuff without just deciding to screw canon anyway. The canon plot had a lot of wandering around hyrule trying and failing to unlock Zelda’s sealing power with some monsters mixed in until ganon shows up and most of the cast dies pretty quickly after. Sticking strictly to canon would have limited what they could have done. The roster would have been smaller for one (fan favorite Sidon in particular would have been limited to strictly non-story content), they couldn't use towers as they weren't found until 100 years later, and even the sheikah slate runes wouldn't have been available as they weren't figured out until after Link went asleep. Prequel stories are hard to do at the best of times and BotW, memories and all, just had a more laid back energy to it and working a canon prequel out of the high energy dynasty warriors structure wouldn't have been impossible just difficult. So personally I was a bit relieved they just went AU fanfic with it, though not to say they used their freedom to its fullest potential.

Johnny you are the man thanks for the great videos I look forward to your videos more than anyone else have a great 2021 my man

Breath of the Wild is getting a trilogy out before Bayonetta

Looking forward to watch Johnny's content in 2021!

Have a happy new year Johnny, hope it gets better for all of us

Going to be an odd trilogy but also looks like a fun one when Breath of the Wild 2 comes out...marathons would be fun with these games.

Mainly for the endslate/ramble, but I hope Johnny knows that these vids were always a treat to get the notification throughout the year and helped soften the blow of... you know. Thanks man. Much love, happy new year.

I have not seen game assets reused so hard since Chain of Memories.

One thing that people are forgetting about halo reach is that we never knew much about what happened on reach except what we were told. (unless you read the books, but the game retconed them anyways). So bungie had more creative freedom. In breath of the wild, the main story is about link recovering his lost identity by revisiting his past and avenging his dead friends by freeing the Divine beasts and destroying Ganon. We are told a great deal about hyrule before and during the calamity, through memory, hearsay, or what we are shown through the environment, we are even shown exactly how link is incapacitated before BoTW, realistically there isn’t a lot of room to make a game (a warriors style game no less) based solely off of those events. People are calling this story a cop out but I think Nintendo put more thought into this game than people realize.

A wonderful video to end this...abomination of a year. A happy and healthy New Year’s to you and yours, Johnny!

Hope you and your fam have a wonderful time ushering in the new year, Johnny!! SGB squad for life!

Happy New Year John! Just want to say thanks for the great content this year, definitely kept me from going insane. Really looking forward to your upcoming projects. Thanks again.

Happy New Year Mr.Somecallmejohnny. This year has been very bad (obviously), but your videos (and SGB's and Brainscratchcomms's) have helped me and probably many others during the tough times, and I am very greatful for that. Whenever I checked RU-vid and saw that you uploaded a new video, I immediately clicked on it, and you didn't disappoint. I hope you have a happy new year, and thank you for being there for us in this age of calamity.

A fantastic way to end this Calamity of a Year. Thank You Johnny!

Have a great New Year's Johnny! Looking forward to 2021!

2021 wont get better overnight, but heres to a hopefully much better year. It's always a pleasure watching your videos John as it always provides a brief escape from reality. Keep up the fantastic work

My last video of 2020 and first of 2021. Happy new year Johnny.

Happy New Year's Johnny. Let's hope 2021 doesn't share the same fate as 2020. Stay save and hope for the best.

"Don't marathon this" Me: *looking at my save file that I marathon'd to 100%* Hahaha yeah, that would be dumb Jokes aside, I... have to agree with Johnny in this. AoC was very nice with the story, but the rest of the game is a grind for glamour. Granted, so is Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition, but I found more enjoyment in having field battles and contending with the conditions for many of those stages. It honestly says something about the game that I was *happy* with the 100% Reward being Link's outfit from the first Hyrule Warriors. It felt so right to slap it on him, and yet doing so completely divorces him from the Breath of the Wild and Age of Calamity. I was happy that getting 100% made the game more like *the other game.* And that... that is not a good sign for the game.

Nintendo: "Hey, you wanna see me split the Zelda timeline? Wanna see me do it again?

Thanks for bringing me and many others a lot of happiness throughout this weird year with these rad videos, Johnny. Much respect!

Sometimes, I wonder how many times Revali has been threatened to be cooked extra crispy, if he didn't watch his mouth (or beak in this case), given his infamy personality-wise.

Nice final review of the year, Johnny. Hope your new year goes well, take care.

Its kinda funny how this is probably the first video I see where there isnt someone saying the framerate drop is abysmall or downright unacceptable.

Thanks for the birthday gift, John! Always know when to drop the great reviews!

9:22 King Rhoam: "Punk is nothing but death, and crime, and the rage of the beast!" (Linkara joke)

Happy new years Johnny!

The original new Johnny intro theme tho! Great video man, appreciate it

Johnny looking skinny. Thanks for the great year of content!🙌🏾

This game is the definition of a pool a mile wide and an inch deep bruh.

If I had to sum up 2020, I'd like to remind everyone that literally like 3 days after 2020 started World War III almost happened

It's good to see that someone besides me realizes just how hot Urbosa is. Johnny, you are truly a man of culture.👍

I like to wish Johnny and everybody else a Happy New Year!

Dang Johnny with the Dec 31st upload. Take a well deserved break man! Currently on chapter 6 of this game so will wait to watch this vid until after I finish it myself. Cant wait to hear your thoughts.

Happy new year, Johnny!

"is this [Lucky Ladle] my reward for preordering this game?" Hey, if you've seen the 12th doctor, you can do a lot with a spoon!

I haven’t had the will to live much of this year. I lost my job, almost had to live in my car, dealt with severe depression despite spending the past 4 years doing well in a dream industry and doing well in grad school. My whole life was crushed. So I wanna say thanks Johnny. You’re one of the few I always am excited to watch. And while the videos may only be 8-20 minutes long, they really help. Thanks for all the hard work

Happy New Year Johnny

What better way to end a Johnny VS video of 2020 is a prequel to Breath of the Wild.

Ending 2020 with a Johnny vs. video... Awesome.

Happy New Year Johnny!

I think this is the first time I even used the timestamp to skip spoilers in a video lol. Thank you, Johnny! ^^

I was just in the middle of watching your Kingdom Hearts marathon and this showed up!

Please keep that blade gag going john, I'm really loving those XD.

Its a good year when johnny posts

Happy New Year, Johnny!

New Johnny vs is a great way to end 2020. Happy New Year everyone and may 2021 be better than 2020.

I love how powerful Link feels in this game. Straight up Luke Skywalker from Mandalorian season 2 vibes

Great timing! I just beat this game today after getting it for Christmas! I thought it was great!

Hey Johnny! Second time watching and just wanted to let you know you’re looking really good man! I’ve been watching for a few years now and seeing you lose the weight and taking control of your health is awesome. Keep it up my guy!! Let’s make 2021 amazing.

4:03 you forget to mention his amnesia lol

Happy new year everyone

6:34 Johnny the most Honest Man I Know:)

That a hat in time shirt is dope happy New Years John and everybody

Am I the only one who won't watch a new Johnny video without a cup of coffee? Happy new year everyone

Me, who’s on a trip in Arkansas: Is Johnny tracking me?!

Happy New Year!

I thought this was a completionist ep for a second and got the painkillers ready

6:35 Forget covid-19 I think Johnny has come down with jungle fever.

i love this game and hoping more dlc comes along, would like to get back to it but 100%ed it

Starting off with a bang huh? Get the Chocobos saddled, and your Mega-Potions ready folks!

Happy new year!

Wow, I know many people are aware of Johnny’s weight loss endeavours and his current results on screen with how much better he looks but....DAMM! Johnny has really looks great with how his weight loss is going!

You and antdude are my favorite reviewers. Y’all are just some chill funny dudes who like playing games. Thank you for all your work

Happy New Year, Johnny! 🎆

It's ironic much more manageable to 100% than base game Hyrule Warriors and Breath of the Wild

Johnny, i am yet again asking for the original intro to come back.

at this point all i look forward to in a johnny zelda review is what his comment of the master sword is gonna be

Happy New Years everyone! :D

I mained Mipha, as she’s the ONLY character that can heal without using apples; even got her to Level 98 before I completed the game. She rips through Weakness Gauges like no one’s business with stacked Aerial Attack runes and her Geyser ability. (It also cheeses out Taluses.) ...but yeah, Impa is pretty busted. I would’ve used her more if I didn’t find Terrako so fun.

I'm still wondering when will Johnny do some Round 2s on both Hyrule Warrior games

Have a happy new year Juan!

Happy New Years!

I legit said "YAY" when I saw this Clicked faster than anything in my life

1:30 - Down with the bokoblins!
