It would go like: - Cutscene starts and camera faces Impa holding up her cane - Camera shows Link doing shocked animation - Camera goes black and sound of Link getting hurt plays - Fades back to gameplay and Link has the blinking hurt indicator
I love how people who last met link 7 years ago can either not recognise him at all or recognise him in full Yiga garb wearing a minecart and a halberd
@@kitsunekaze93 Yes I know, however people did not "last met Link 7 years ago" as the OP stated. These people have known Link first hand during these years between BOTW and TOTK. I asked this person to clarify to be sure, but I was already under the assumption that they wrongfully thought that between the first scene of TOTK (Ganondorf reviving) and Link waking up in the Great Sky Islands 7 years had passed (something that I have seen a disturbing amount of people believe for some reason). However this is 100% false since many NPCs in the game state that Zelda has only been missing for a few days. If OP was under that misunderstanding it would've explained their comment.
@@math9172 This is the first I've seen this theory. Most I see just think reference the years between the 2 games, not the time between Ganondorf folding Link and him waking up.
@@Teknanam You must've misunderstood my comment. This is not a theory, it's simply wrong. Only a few days have passed between the intro scene and the tutorial (or maybe even less, maybe the "few days" the NPCs keep referring to simply represent the time Link spent in the sky islands + the time you spend overall during the game.) I have seen a lot of people think that the timejump of a few years is located here, when in fact it is very obviously located between the end cutscene of BOTW and the very beginning of TOTK.
more specifically, you can look up the kakariko village heirloom quest and get the full context. but basically he used to be in the yiga, and once he left the yiga killed his wife and threatened the safety of his kids unless he uses his position in kakariko to spy on them his child can also be found grieving in the nearby graveyard, implying it happened pretty recently
If you go to the Kakariko Village Well in TOTK you can actually find a diary and a vegetable plot hidden underground written by Dorian's wife talking about how much she loves Dorian, Koko and Cottla and the food she likes to make for them, which is really sad :(
@@somerandomgamer8504 It kind of surprised me that the little tuft on top of Yiga uniforms are supposed to be hair rather than some ornamentation. Aren't the Yiga Clan ethnically Sheikah? Why don't they have white hair? Do they dye it?
@@futurehistoryarchaeologist4480 they're a branch of Ancient Sheikah that split off when their Ancient Technology was seen as a bad thing by the people of Hyrule. And since the Yiga spend more time Underground and doing Stealthy things, their hair turned black through natural selection, as black hair would be way better at helping them blend in at night than white hair.
You also get a reaction from Impa should you talk to her, she'll mention not liking the outfit at all, but also understands that the Yiga Clan won't attack you if you wear it
@@JoshuaArrike That’s the only way to get in there base and out posts. The problem was the monsters still attack you. So attacking A Yiga Member the rest of the clan should realize Ganondorf betrayed them. Like in Age Of Calamity
@@bradhedgehog12If you read the journals in the outposts in the depths several of them mention the Yiga Clan fighting monsters, whether in self defense or aggression. The monsters do not view them as allies. Whether this is because the monsters are incapable of doing so or simply because Ganondorf views the Yiga Clan as beneath his notice is up in the air but I highly doubt he is ignorant to their existence.
@@AscendedDemon Well I check the books at them outposts in the depths so far nothing to do with the monster minions and the Yiga Clan Fighting each other yet.
Also, if you try to take the bananas from yiga traps dressed up as a yiga member, the yiga soldiers disguised as trees will berate you You also dont get the banana
I mean TO BE FAIR you are dressing up as a literal terrorist organization in front of people who spent the last several centuries fighting them, can't really blame sheikah people there 😂😂😂
@@benbittinger9789 only to kill Link? They worship Ganondorf and try to make his rule easier. They try to kill or kidnap Zelda to throw Hyrule into chaos.
One of Dorian’s daughters has a unique reaction if you’re wearing the outfit inside Dorian’s house when she enters the house. She was like “oh, dad’s back home early.”
It's particularly funny to me that Purah is largely unfazed. It makes sense, she's probably one of the ones most exposed to Link and his fashion shenanigans, given her role in BotW.
Not sure if it's the same in English, but when I ask Purah to repeat herself she says something like "you've got such a bad memory... well, it's no big deal" which is hilarious considering that's Link's whole deal in BotW
I was a bit disapointed that only the gerudo think you are an actual yiga , when you talk to the gerudo guards at lookout landing and karakara bazar they all threaten to kill you if you dont leave , and the gerudo merchants refuse to sell you stuff . The other races dont care and even amongst the sheikah only some of them react to it and they dont believe you are a yiga they just say stuff like "we know you aren't one of them , you shouldn't wear that its not a joke" I was expecting to be hated by everyone in kakariko village . I want everyone to acknowledge me as a Yiga , I worked hard to join them and I want to be recognized .
@@Rashed1255 But I thought getting the outfit was enough . The guy at the door of the hideout said that as long as I can get it from the 3 branches I could become one of them . I even became a blademaster after offering 5 bananas to 5 altars .
Nothing to do with Link's outfit, but I find it interesting that we finally get to meet Malena's husband. That's some REAL love and devotion right there to nurse him through multiple illnesses. What a sweet couple.
@RJD I can't blame you. I have mixed feelings about them because they killed people, but in Age of Calamity you see them become good. To be fair, I understand why they left the Shiekah years ago, what the King 10000 years told them to do was horrible, forcing them to be farmers when they could help.
Tbf, Kouga from AoC is not the one from BotW. It's a leader title. It's why their VAs are different too. So in 100 years the Yiga became more blood thirsty. There is a lot going on with the Yiga - and even if King said "hey no tech" switching sides to Ganon is a bit suspect. Either they were already traitors and the divine beast were hidden because they knew Ganon might be able to control it later by doing same thing twice (which happens), or the story in game. I'm more prone to believe they were already traitors. We also know the monks saw the future - to point they knew a Gerudo would block a shrine because of thirst. They knew Link would fall. Meaning Yiga did too. Unless they were already a split faction. The king allowed the shrines to be built after the Calamity passed. But making up a story about how it was the King's fault they split...it allows the shrines to stay hidden until needed. There is a lot of either plot holes. Or intentional deception going on.
@@Stormrunner1981 The Yiga joined with Ganon because "enemy of my enemy is my friend". Though its less that they joined and more that they are just a faction friendly to Ganon's forces. Ganon himself doesn't recognize them far as I can tell which is why Kohga keeps trying to find ways for the Yiga to be recognized by him. Also it wasn't simply the no tech rule. The Sheikah were ostracized and exiled from Hyrule society over the Sheikah tech.
@@Stormrunner1981 About Kohga having different VAs, how can you be sure? I can't find anything about Kohga having a different VA between BotW/TotK and AoC. If anything, I can't find anything about his VA for Age of Calamity anyway; just his English and Spanish voices. But you are right about "Kohga" being a title, rather than a name.
SPOILER Also if you encounter kohga in the depths with the outfit on he says something along the lines of "don't hide behind that mask, I know who you are !"
I remember doing this by accident trying to get him in the Gerudo area. I wore the yiga outfit to bypass some of the guards and ended up running into Kogah before changing. I think the hand and batteries on my side gave it away. Maybe Kogah is smarter than he looks, unlike his underlings.
@@kostakonomimakes me wonder if the masks have like a specific mark or notch pattern in them that only actual yiga can see because they are trained too so they can recognize their own, or at least one the leader knows.
Is because ever since the Age of Calamity 100 years prior he sorta trained himself to know every. Last. Detail. Of Link's physique, posture, and characteristics because he has an unhealthy grudge, even if he serves for the favor of Ganon
don’t know if anyone has brought this up but there’s also 3 gerudo at outskirt village who react to link’s yiga outfit by all turning away from him at once and they have a few funny lines, the highlight for me is when they say “you’re so much shorter than the others… I… I guess I’ll just pretend I didn’t see you”
It also happen with the Gerudo at the volcano. She doesn't want to negociate with Yiga clan members, but if she doesn't do it, she can't continue her business
The animation for any NPC spinning away from Link looks super hilarious to me, I couldn't stop laughing when all three of them turn towards you then immediately give you the cold shoulder lmao
I like the Yiga Outfit letting you talk to the clan like usual people. Aside from their want for Link’s Death and Kohga’s Pride, they’re pretty average people.
Well, I think most of the normal people don't really understand what the Yiga are. They are enemies of the Royal family after all, so it's to be expected that their actions were mostly kept under wraps. Now because of what has happened they have gone more public, that's why there are people trying to join them because of how "cool" they are or their powers are, or simply because they blame the royal family for what happened.
*Spoiler warning* Fun fact: in your final encounter with Master Kogha, he mentions that he isn’t fooled by your disguise if you walk up to him in yiga armor. I’m not sure about the other encounters, though.
I mean its a miracle that she dosen't trow you out of the village right away a part of me even expected that you can't enter the village at all with the yiga armor on
Also the opposite, the guard told me to take off the Yiga outfit so I did just that. That's when I found out going around naked was just as illegal in the town...
She doesn’t really react to it, and simply mentions that anyone wanting to rescue her must be the hero. Other special scripted Yiga ambushes make sure to note the fact that they can recognize you by your blonde hair and/or noble intentions.
I HIGHLY recommend completing "The Stolen Heirloom" sidequest in BotW first, but if you REALLY want to know, spoilers below: . Dorian was an ex-Yiga who tried to defect from the clan after falling in love and marrying. The Yiga, in retaliation, later murdered his wife and extorted him into acting as an informant by threatening his children. He later told them of Link's return and meeting with Impa, which caused them to send out members disguised as travelers, and after a failed attempt to cut ties with them for good, told them of a Sheikah heirloom in Impa's possession. Seeing no further use for Dorian and already having considered him a traitor, a Blademaster that stole the heirloom prepared to kill Dorian on a later night. However, Link had followed Dorian that night, and the Blademaster chose to attack the hero first. After Link defeated the Blademaster, Dorian told his past to Link and asked that he keep the truth behind that night's events a secret because he "didn't want [his] children to suffer anymore", and though it "[didn't] make up for what [he had] done", pledged to protect Kakariko and his children "no matter the cost". Because of his defection from the clan, Dorian and his family will probably be targeted by Yiga assassins for the rest of their lives.
Seems like the people who didn't care had pre set dialogue options as they were giving you quest. So you may be stupid for not talking to people after completing all their quest.
