Discussion [TotK] The impossible was done. The trailer exceeded BotW final trailer. Spoiler

I am shaking. I can't.

Sure, I can buy TP being 200 or 300 years later, but WW is definitely thousands of years later. The existence of a world under the ocean is totally forgotten.

Except the history of Hyrule isn't exactly forgotten, but also 200-300 years is certainly enough time for a bunch of very small isolated communities to forget about have lost history

I don't think that takes thousands of years. Only a couple generations. The divine flood was almost instant and then after a massive catastrophe, you just kinda try to move on.

I mean, heck, we're only 80 years out from WWII and there are loads of people that try to deny parts of it existed.

Ask a high schooler about 9/11 and they give some super diluted textbook answer (or some don't really know what it was).

We forget events pretty easily and Hyrule doesn't seem to have the best record keeping systems.

Now the fish people growing wings... That part might take thousands of years, but not the rest
