The game references a lot of Zelda games, not just in easter-eggs, but it's still the most disconnected game in the franchise. The backstory kind of feels like a rewrite of the so-called downfall timeline starting from Ocarina of Time, but then there's inconsistencies with A Link to the Past. I guess BotW could also replace the original NES game in the timeline, but I'm not sure if one should just erase a whole game from existence. Or it's some time long after any of the otger games but I don't know...

Either way, it all doesn't really matter one bit though.
