Where Could a REAL Person Work In Hyrule? - Zelda Theory 

If you can only pick one, which job should I do a deep dive on?

Hyrule has been missing a good mail system as of late. Gone are the days where you would see the postman running from town to town on foot to deliver mail on time. If you are passionate about running and exercise or you just want to make sure everyone can stay in touch, consider becoming Hyrule's new postman.

Idea: How would the average person EAT in Hyrule? It could discuss recipes, foods of the species of Hyrule, common foods, elixirs, ways to find/purchase ingredients, ways to add your own spin to cook, how to work the cooking pots, etc. I believe it has plenty potential!

I think there's a market for cartographers. The world of Hyrule is full of secrets, hazards, and travellers - a specialty store dedicated to making maps that cover different areas or display different information would surely see a lot of buisness. Most people don't have access to an ancient device that generates an interactive map on their behalf, you know!

I personally would LOVE to intern at one of those “tech labs.” People always talk about the scientists being weird, but they’ve gotta be hiding some serious brains behind those odd hairstyles!

I'm surprised there hasn't been an adventurer who decides to create a business where clients request items and the adventurer focuses on retrieving those items and sells them for a price that depends on how hard it was to retrieve them.

Video idea: What type of renewable source of resources is safest, and most dangerous, that can be harvested by your average traveler? Might be complicated though. Up to you!

There might be a job market for a dedicated elixir shop. There’s a couple people who sell elixirs, but usually only one kind. That said, one of the main ingredients of elixirs are monster parts, which is a bit of a double-edged sword as you’ll likely have to harvest them yourself, not easy as an average Hylian, but that also means the market won’t be very competitive since most people would have trouble getting their hands on the essential ingredient. Maybe that one blonde guy with the sword could be contracted as a supplier. He seems to have monster parts spilling out of his pockets, but he keeps selling them off at random shops to get the cash to buy arrows.

Idea : How does the average Hylian interact with other species or groups like the Gerudo? You could talk about places where you might find them hanging out outside of their domain and how to interact with them.

Video Idea: How could your average hylian defend themselves in hyrule. What weapons would give the most amount of safety while also being able to stop enemies. What weapons could your average hylian find and use effectively. Where could you learn about self defense. Who could you go to to get better training. What hobs could a trained average hylian get that an untrained one could not.

There is one profession that's noticeably missing from Hyrule: Medical care! Doctors, apothecaries, or anything like that is totally gone and would probably be very successful.

Everyone's talking about how working in the Tech Labs would be so cool, but nobody's questioning the suspicious blue flames and weird structures. For all we know, they could be related to the things that came out of the ground a while back, or the glowing structures that are everywhere now! Those scientists are up to something, and I'm going to find out exactly what it is!

I personally work as a surveyor! I explore Hyrule scoping out suitable locations for future towns and settlements. Now not every town was built in a location appraised by me of course, but I can proudly say that Tarrey town was directly constructed on a plot of land which I sold to the Bolson Construction Company!

I'd imagine injuries are a pretty common occurrence, so surgeons and apothecaries are probably in very high demand.

Video idea: What would be the wardrobe of an average hylian? Would there be multiple or each outfit? How often would washing cloths need to occur? Where and how would you wash the cloths? Bassicaly anything related to cloths.

Idea: How do you deal with those weird red moons? I heard from another traveller that Hyrule has these weird red moons, and I'm a bit worried about them... Can you tell us what they are, and what they mean?

Awesome video! I don't know about other people, but Hyrule could really use a mail service! The only way to send a letter or package is to either walk it there yourself or hope that a traveller could take it -- but in my experience the travellers only go partway or in the case of that Link guy, he disappears into the wilderness for several months and forgets all about it!

Idea: Which monster civilization should you join. It could be a bit like the one you did about which village to live in, but is just the monster civilizations. An example could be a skull camp, or a lizalfos water platform.

Idea: What kind of wildlife can be found in each region of Hyrule? Can focus on animals as well as monsters specific to a particular area and how best to deal with them. Essentially, a survival guide for each region of the map.

god this channel has so much potential, please keep it up ❤

New Speciality Shop Idea: A shop where you can rent somebody to help with your work. You pay people to be your employees to work, so you get paid. It could have fighters, farmers, miners, etc. Note that they have limits, and you can not give them tasks that are too difficult, like telling a warrior to go kill Ganon

how can your average Hylian know for a fact what food is safe to eat? I mean how does Link know those mushrooms are safe?

I love this video!!! After watching your first video, my boyfriend and I discussed where we would live and what we would do if we lived in Hyrule. We spent over two hours talking about it and decided to live in Hateno as a blacksmith and a shoemaker/cobbler, respectively. We also considered being leather smiths, cartographers, and mercenaries. We just wanted to cater to travelers who would visit or pass through Hateno and need new weapons, shoes, or general gear. We even picked out the lot where we would build our house and workshop! Video Idea: I'd love to see a video compilation of the different main towns and cities in a Tourism Commercial format. I know it would be similar to your first video, but I was thinking about how it would showcase some tourist destinations and cultural sites of each settlement in a vacation-y vibe.

I have an idea for a store. As we all know, Hyrule is full of dangerous enemies and animals alike that can easily get in your way. What if there was a place where we can hire mercenaries to take care of them? Judging from the number of travellers you can find knocked out on the floor, I'm not sure finding people who will become mercenaries will be easy though

Me and my fiancé were wondering where the best wedding and honeymoon destinations are in Hyrule. She hasn’t traveled much outside the desert, and I’ve spent most of my life in my home village, so we aren’t really in the know of the best places to go.

Video idea: what are the safest roads / paths to travel as an average person The last day I was travelling from gerudo desert to one of the stables while I was travelling, and I found a strange horse in the path when I approached more it turned out to be one of those strange giant monsters that have been wandering in some places of hyrule, I thought I wasn't gonna make it alive but I could escape from it

I just wanna say, your transitioning was on point. Nice script writing 👌

A new idea: what are the strangest travellers you've met in hyrule so far?

Video Idea: of all the animals in Hyrule, which ones would make the best or most useful pets

Hyrule needs bards and performers.

At first, when I discovered this channel I was like "Yeah cool, i'll entertain me until TOTK is out" But I just love those videos so much, I really hope this channel will grow up and keep up the fantastic content !

Here's an idea: which recipes should you try to make for each region.

I've been working as a transporter! I go town to town getting items and supplies around! So recently I've been dropping items off all around Hyrule! I will admit those guardian things are annoying, but being able to soar above them is useful

For an idea as a shop I think that an arms dealer that sells bows or swords could be cool

I really like the idea of being a traveling messenger, a life dedicated to traversing the vast land of Hyrule, carrying important letters and packages to be delivered. I would have mastered the fasted and safest routes between all of the towns and settlements, knew the map in all of its intricacies, hiding spots, safe areas, points of interest, and I know the exact time it takes to travel between towns on horseback vs on foot (something I've personally documented in my game because I find it fascinating). The idea of delivering mail has always interested me. The idea that you are entrusted with important packages, documents, and handwritten letters to loved ones, and it is your job to ensure that these letters reach their destination. It's such an important, yet underappreciated line of work. ❤

Maybe do a continuation of "How to get to x place in Hyrule". I feel like places lime Gerudo Town and Rito Village would be insanely hard to travel to without expert planing and maybe a horse. You'd probably also have to resort to building camps and foraging for food. I also imagine wilderness survival skills are also a necessity for any average Hylian, even if you only plan to stay in your hometown.

Video idea: Foods of Hyrule. Basically just go over delicious meals, elixers, deserts, etc. just for a video. Maybe even some guides on certian ingredients for a few meals, like monster extract. And if you really wanna go overboard, maybe even talk about some of the age of calamity specific meals like the champions feast or whatever its called, ir the nobel pursuit. Just a few ideas!

If I could work anywhere in hyrule I’d apply for a job at the ancient tech lab

Video Idea: what about a tour of Hyrule Castle & Castle Grounds with a history channel aspect of what it was like before the calamity?

Currently I'm preparing to go to my first location, Kakariko Village, as a traveling journalist! I feel that traversing throughout Hyrule, documenting the many different cultures of all the different races and towns of the land would be so amazing! I would love to write many books about my travels for those unable to travel throughout the land, as a way to show them that there's so much more outside of where they live! This is something I will truly love to do as time goes by!:)

A good job idea would be a travel guide as a lot of people travel around hyrule but not all roads are safe you would have a good business I believe also there wouldn't be anyone else doing it.

Video idea 💡: where is the best place for an average hylian to build a house outside civilization, like resources, water, food, a town you can easily travel to but too near by, view, etc.

I'd start out at Bolson's as an interior designer, they must have an opening for one - how else did Link's house get decorated overnight? Also, the houses they build are always so sparsely decorated.

Just found your channel. Love your style and the fact that you're covering an aspect of Hyrule I've always wondered about - subbed!

I would love to be a doctor/alchemist in hyrule. It might be difficult to forage for the supplies, but keeping people safe and healthy is what I'd like to do!

you should also do like a holiday location review because I highly doubt that you are in hateno all year, I think you also do little trips or even stay at another place for a while to relax and you should tell us about that

A shop that specializes in sell potions in hurdle for when you don’t want to make them your self

Wait a minute, how did you get into Gerudo Village as a voe?

I'm excited to see the post-calamity Hyrule :D... Hopefully nothing weird happens like floating islands appearing out of nowhere!

I was waiting for you to make another one! You deserve way more subscribers btw, you're posting some crazy high quality content on this game.

The amount of serotonin this channel gives me is unreal

Day 1 of asking for a hylian ‘roleplay’ server where we all act like we live in hyrule (If you want I can set up a discord server and a minecraft server with the botw map)

You might have to wait for Tears of the Kingdom, but what types of transportation would be best suited for traveling? Which are best suited for the environment? How many things would you be able to take with you?

I would most likely work at someone else’s store, perhaps some kind of errand boy. I could do manual labor, fetch items from other locations, and any other activities the main man is too busy for! Given how many side quests Link is given, there is clearly an employment vacuum in that area!

This is some of the most unique and interesting content on youtube right now. I can’t wait to see more and what you do with ToTK’s expanded world.

Idea what monsters would give your average hylian the most trouble I love your videos and keep up the good work

Video series idea: Hyrule Mythbusters: Investigate and debunk (or confirm) popular myths, legends, and theories about the Breath of the Wild universe

Video Idea: I’m a geologist who studies the different types of rocks and minerals around Hyrule, and I could use some help. I need to get some of the obsidian that was created by the rogue Devine beast laxer in the Hibra region. And some andesite from death Mountain (because after studying it, I found it to be a stratovcano…

I love how there's a secret "school" for the Gerudos to learn how to meet and talk to men outside the city, but no actual schools for all the kids in the different towns.

About what you said at 2:52 , so an idea for a completely new store, I have two ideas: 1: A blacksmith other than for the champions' weapons, for people who don't want to go after monsters to get swords or bows or shields or any kind of weapon. 2: A training center, where you actually have to fight an NPC ... Please take notes if you see this, Nintendo

Honestly love your content!! I'm obsessed with fantasy and placing myself in the worlds my favorite games take place in, so your videos are a dream come true!

Shop Idea: Travelers Emporium. I'd sell weapons and shields, recipes, tips for foraging, and arrows of course. I'd be a travelling salesman at some stables, but have a larger shop in Hateno

You could always be a seamstress. It seems like there’s a shop in the Gerudo village that could use a diverse hand in making fabulous garbs for other people (and possibly help the local hero to get into the city).

definitely a type of transportation service for the travelling people who are not too familiar with the sword, to ensure they reach their destinations safely

One con of joining the yiga clan is you only eat bananas for the rest of your life AND YOU WILL NEVER SEE OR EAT YOUR MOMS COOKING AGAIN

As an artist, I'd be glad to share the trade with Pikango! Although I'm not as experienced with paint in particular, and I don't see anywhere I can plug in a PC in Hyrule, I think I could make a decent living selling woodblock prints or something similar.

I'd wager there's rupees to be made as a treasure hunter. Combing the Necluda Sea for treasure and picking through ancient ruins could be a thrilling job. I heard a rumor at the Riverside Stable that Hyrule Castle has heaps of treasure, including extremely powerful weapons. Sounds like payday to me!

I loved the video! And actually, there are two more jobs that I would add to this list, and there are proof at least two Champions had those jobs in life: The first is a healer. A medic, a doctor. Mipha had healing power, and was the main healer on Zora's Domain. However, Zelda had also some training in it, Amali too (she takes care of her five kids and Kaneli's health, also took care of Harth's wing and Teba's leg), so, we can imagine there was an actual medicine education in Hyrule. I guess it was natural, with so many warriors around. The second job is in teaching. On Age of Calamity, there is a specific mission where Revali actually did teach the rito kids to fly, and another where he did teach the hylian soldiers how to use a bow. That and the easy way he dealt with a certain kid (no spoilers) made me positive he was actually the Rito who would teach the others in Rito Vilage. It's kind of fitting, everyone had a teacher on school who was a prick, at least once.

Idea: which hyrule village has the best food? Another idea: Hyrule beauty contest

I would start a pet shop where travelers could buy bets to hunt, fight, find treasures or just chill with

Video Idea: the average hylian making the journey to Lurelin Village, styled as “going on vacation”

You should make a Discord server where we pretend to be inhabitants of Hyrule! :D

Video Idea: What could an average person do in Hyrule? You could go over fun activities or places for vacations and determine what would be suitable for a normal person.

Video idea: How could a person raise a family in hyrule

Idea: video commercials for each of the reigions! I think that would be an amazing way to make monet for a horse, or anything else you need!

Maybe you could make an advertisement for various businesses around Hyrule? I'd love to see one for Kiltons, or Bolsons!

3:26 bombastic side eye

I've been learning from the nice lady who styles your horses hair, how to cut and style hylian hair as well! As far as I know, there aren't many barbers/ hair stylists in hyrule. I think business might be booming soon!

As the awesome travelling videographer you are, I hope you will tell those of us who are considering moving to hyrule about it's culture. It would be amazing to hear it's tales told by the locals, it's oral histories, and stories passed down through generations. I've heard there was some sort of war that took place in Hyrule, and that the castle is quite the foreboding spot which used to be quite heavily ransacked for it's goods. This is information I would love to learn prior to moving to hyrule myself ;)

Don't worry, i'm sure someone is gonna take care of the calamity in 34 days

My Rito friend and I are talking about establishing a proper postal system... but we need more hands (or wings) and Rupees in order to get that off the ground. For now, I'm still stuck on laundry duty at Rito Stable.

This is super helpful! I’m looking to quit my job as a potter, because the constant demand for new wears is incredibly stressful.

You somewhat talked about it in your first video but what about guides for living in various places in Hyrule. Like if you were determined to live on Death Mountain (for some reason), what would be the best way to go about that? Best places to find ingredients for Elixirs, where to find food around the mountain (probably mushrooms and hunting birds), and so on.

Video idea: I think it would be a great idea to do a ranking of your favorite regions Great Plateau, Faron, Lanaru etc.

I can probably find work as some sort of courier moving goods and supplies from one settlement to another meeting people all over the kingdom.

Personally I would probably choose to be an inn keeper, it's like the laziest job you could think of. Frickin the one in kakariko is a prime example of that, the dude there is literally asleep everytime you go to to sleep there

That's a lot of jobs! I think you covered at least most of them, depending on how you categorize some that weren't specified by name, like hunter and tailor. I think it's kind of reassuring that even in a largely destroyed state, Hyrule still has a fully functional society with a wide array of specializations.

I bet there are jobs for photographers, unless the only camera is on the sheikah slate.. Personally, I would want to be a traveling salesman who sells weapons.

If you are adept in combat, you could always teach self-defense classes.

I'm sure everyone noticed this, but there is no official potion shop in BotW. That was a series staple in the other games. Also, except for the occasional random salesperson, nobody actually sells elixirs. Typically people in Hyrule have to brew those themselves. But for those too lazy to that, a potion maker would probably see a lot of business! XD

Being a travel guide who works with the scientists and constructioneers to create flyers or billboards across Hyrule telling you how far certain key locations are (stables, settlements, wild horses, great fairies, etc) would be really fun I think if you like numbers and riding!

You should do a video on how to find good tourist spots in Hyrule that are worth it to see.

Unique Store Idea: a store that would sell special armor and equipment specific to that store. There would be tasks to complete such as find a person and take them to a place or kill whatever kind of monster they put in the task. To get the special gear you would have to gain reputation with the store.

Well, while its not mentioned in game... I can certainly tell that the towns have spinners and weavers from the amount of fabric lying around. I would probably attempt to find an apprenticeship doing that.

I'm definitely a researcher. The ruins fascinate me.

What would be the most profitable trade route? I don't want to spend to much time traveling but I still want to make a decent amount of money.

it might be harder, but i’d like to pursue my baking dream even in hyrule. theres no bakeries anywhere!

Personally I'd start a merchant caravan to ship exotic and standard goods efficiently from town to town across Hyrule

Oh sure getting a job in Hyrule sounds fun at first but when an almost naked Hylian that barely speaks comes into town while riding a guardian then its game over for everyone.

I’m gonna be a stable worker because I hear that some boy is going around riding on a legendary horse and I just have to see it.
