:The point isn't refuted; it states that from this game forward there should be no Gorons on Death Mountain - as you said, the mountain in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'' is unnamed, and it would be some unfounded speculation to say that it is in fact "Death Mountain" without any in-game support. Sure, the Goron's may have moved to another mountain because that's their way of life, but the fact remains that no Gorons, even in ''Spirit Tracks'', inhabit a "Death Mountain". It's picky, I know! This is only one con, though, and it's pretty clear that ''Spirit Tracks'' is a direct sequel to ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', even considering this. {{:User:Cipriano/sig}} 19:53, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

::I know the article is ignoring TMC for the sake of simplicity, but it ''is'' placed somewhere, and no matter where you place it, you have the Gorons moving from one mountain to another (TMC -> OoT = Mt. Crenel -> Death Mountain; TP -> TMC = Death Mountain -> Mt. Crenel; ST -> TMC = Unnamed mountain -> Mt. Crenel). That's why I think that it just doesn't really matter because Death Mountain consistency is impossible to have anywhere. Furthermore, the conclusion of that quote is sort of faulty anyhow, because nothing presented indicates that new Hyrule cannot ever have a Death Mountain; it even has its own Lost Woods anyhow.

Actually, there's a lot here that can be reworked. The 2D child order was being pretty objective until the point about TWW's ending putting the games in the child timeline by default. There are actually other options than this: FSA began development the same year TWW was released, and FSA can be seen as a game that was perhaps intended to bridge the 2D games with TWW.

The stuff about the sages' seal also seems irrelevant to both pros and cons sections since most theorists now believe that a new Imprisoning War that's not OoT would have to happen to lead into ALttP anyway. [[User:Jarsh|Jarsh]] 11:08, 24 May 2011 (EDT)

:You say "most"; I'd like to see some editors that share the same beliefs comment here before a change like this is made... without evidence, it's anyone's call. {{:User:Cipriano/sig}} 19:53, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

::I agree, that's why I wasn't hasty and deleted it, but I'm just going off my experiences over countless debates over this on Zelda Universe and Zelda Informer (which, I understand, is created by my subjective viewpoint on this matter). I think it usually ends in most agreeing that TWW implies OoT's sage seal was broken anyhow. [[User:Jarsh|Jarsh]] 14:50, 27 May 2011 (EDT)
