This was my game of the Direct, right here!

Given the setting, I wonder if Link won't even show up here?

I'm sure there'll be some timey wimey stuff involved.

He'll be post game if not.

So they're supposedly not chickening out this time and are giving us an actual story and not whenever idiocy they did in Age of Calamity.

Oh boy, if you think that was dumb, wait until you hear what they said about where Tears of the Kingdom fits into all this!

I'd love to get this but I just can't get into the Hyrule Warriors games. And this seems like it'll be a good one to tie the story up.

If I'm remembering right, we didn't know about said idiocy until Age of Calamity launched. 

So it's still very much on the table
