Yeah, the question is still why it is gone in Majora's Mask.

You called Link a horrible person, but I love Majora's Mask Link, the guide of souls. You even fulfilled that dancer's final wish like a good paranormal investigator.

Did you speed it up or is the music which is now playing in my head just slower than normal.

Regular speed, Link just dances faster than the music, which I didn't realize until you asked.

Sadly my editing skills are pretty poo poo! But I figure since Link finally got to Step Up™. It's time for his sick rear end dance routine to hit the streets.

What was the deal with Kamaro's weird 'translation' thing? Was that a joke that worked better in Japanese?

I assumed that it was he was performing interpretive dance, and the translation was what the dance was meant to be saying. :shrug:

Kind of makes me wonder if they see something other than a ten year old kid in a Question mask with a Kamaro Pez dispenser sticking out of his forehead.

Amazing plot, art style and atmosphere aside, this game is a bonafide treasure in that incorporates two of the best game mechanics in any Zelda game in the same game!

A Zelda Groundhog Day(s) game by itself would be amazing. A Zelda transformation-masks game by itself would be amazing. But they're both this game. It's incredible what they created in such a short amount of time after OoT was done.

I want more like it. Transformations could come back in any setting they want, really. But sadly I don't think we'll ever see such a tightly scheduled world (in terms of NPCs, events, side quests etc) in Zelda ever again without also having a time travel gimmick, and then it would just feel like a carbon copy. Without time travel it'd be pointless. What, the old lady gets robbed every Friday?


Edit: the mask collection by itself is also genius. Not only do all those macguffins each have their own purpose/use in the game (some more than others, admittedly), they all also mean something in the world of the game. They have meaning to the characters you get them from, or show them to. It's so well done.

When I was a kid, I put off visits to dungeons as long as I could, since even Gohma freaked me out a lot. So I was really happy to see that Majora's Mask lets you do a ton of different things before you even set foot in the first dungeon. It really helped me prepare, get my bearings and become drawn into the world, even though I was still sorta stressed.

I believe it's 7, but I know for a fact you can have at least 6 before you even start Woodfall.

You can get 20 heart containers pieces before going into the first dungeon, I'm pretty sure, for a grand total of 8 hearts.

e: vv - Oh, uh, whoops. I need more sleep. Thanks for pointing that out.

e2: Before going to the swamp at all would be 14 pieces, or 15 if you count the piece in the tree in that short area between Termina field and the swamp proper.

20 heart pieces, for a total of 8 heart containers. I know the terminology doesn't really matter and everyone understood what you were talking about, but it still irked me.

Shoot me a PM with your list because I'm curious now. I can come up with 20 pieces but it includes a few which are technically possible but overwhelmingly tedious (the bank) or are so reliant on chance that you'd never feasibly get them without the intended method.

I'll still PM you, but the list does include those. Though you can get the latter the intended way before the first dungeon, unless I'm misremembering something.

Really you kind of need the extra hearts especially with the first and third bosses. Going up against the first with just 3 and the third with just 5 hearts would be a pain in the rear end.

Episode 18 - Link Has Mad Ups

A note on this session: I was running a fever when we recorded this. ChaosArgate and I thought it would be fine since last time we did that we got the Shadow Temple videos but we also forgot that I had the entirety of Ocarina of Time before that point under my belt and kind of knew what I was doing.

This is Majora's Mask. I don't know what I'm doing. So I'm a little dopier and a little worse at combat than I normally am, so try not to get as mad as Artix did by the end of this, I was trying my best!

That being said, enjoy the first dungeon!

The spinturtles' croaks keep sounding to me like "get wrecked". It's like Link's wandered into a MOBA.

I'm proud that you remembered that you have a (shell) shield when you fought them. :3:

I was thinking the same thing. I found that to be quite amusing. Did they change that sound for the 3DS version? I don't seem to recall hearing that when I played it on my 3DS more recently.

I wanted to post this nice rendering of the Deku Palace theme when Fae first visited it, as that would've been most fitting.

Except the message that's on screen for a split second after the song ends spoiled the fact there's a dungeon in the swamp. So I couldn't.

Now that the LP has progressed far enough to be inside the dungeon, I can finally link the song.

It's one of her earlier works so the sound quality is a bit weak, but it's still some nice lyrics.
