Topic: Finally gonna give Order of Shadows its freaking dues

Well, I have never argued for it to be part of the canon. But actually to fit it in an alternate timeline where Haunted Castle happened (though this is more a Zangetsu's thing).

I have thought about what you said and I have some ideas, but I don't wish to derail the thread so I may start my own.

I have to admit, I'm both frustrated and legitimately impressed by the amount of mileage you guys have gotten out of arguing the canonicity of a game even *I* will freely admit was never really part of the canon to begin with.

You and me both. o_O

When I mentioned OoS in the "Remake" thread, I'll admit that I expected some "Yeah, maybe" or "Ugh, never mention that name again", but not "y'know, there are some very interesting theories..."

But that's on me for being gone so long, and forgetting how in-tune this community is.

Personally, while it is clearly not a part of the timeline, that doesn't mean that it wasn't created with the intention of being able to fit with what had already been established - it was created with thought given to the timeline and where it could fit/how it could fit, it just isn't actually meant to be considered an actual part of the timeline.  If that makes sense? Sorry, I'm writing this on my phone.
