One of my friends says ALTtP is way harder but I was like 'nah dude'. He didn't believe me though.

Took me a long time to beat Zelda II and it was mechanically challenging alongside being a huge dick to me too. Plus the fact that you can use keys from one palace in another palace and now you don't have enough keys to advance in one of them. Weird time for the Zelda series.

Zelda 2 is very obviously harder than A Link To The Past, which is a very easy game.

the only hard part of alttp is a part that won't kill you anyway

gently caress you ice palace and your loving blocks

and gently caress you GBA version for making the ice palace not suck but being inferior to the snes version in every other way

I actually did the 8th dungeon in Link's Awakening before the 7th because the 7th was loving gay

Zelda 2 is the hardest game in the series by far, the original LoZ starts getting real as gently caress around dungeon 6 and is at least as hard as Zelda 2 in the second quest but I dont count it because you can get 2/3 of the way through the game without anxiety meds

yeah like one boss, but the last boss strikes you with lightning and takes away a third of your health and magicka

lttp is really pretty easy. i beat it as a kid, and can do large portions of it with 2x speed on an emulator now. not sure how hard zelda 2 is, though it's pretty infamous. I beat the first quest of the original zelda and that was way harder than lttp.

Then as an adult I just never bothered to play it again

I'm horrible

confession i never played a zelda game. i got the legend of zelda for the nes on my 10th birthday and was so excited to play it but i got the US version and i lived in UK and since then I've never been able to touch a zelda game.

tho everyone knows Zelda2 is loving tough as kangaroo balls so your friend is a dummy

I never played lttp because i picked the wrong console. I'll probably try it on zsnes sometime, eventually.

I had died over 300 times before beating Link to the past. I told the Game Center cx kacho guy this as he was signing my cartridge and he laughed

Zelda 2 is bullshit and that's all it is

ok i guess i was kind of exaggerating with my lack of loz experience. i've played most of them for at least a few hours, but i'm just not a huge nintendo or zelda fan so i eventually lost interest.

basically i owned a NES. and in the 80s/early 90s games were dumb expensive so i only got a few. (SMB3, SMB2, SMB1 my most played games and I even made a shitton of maps for my own SMB4 as a kid. i found them recently and they are ridiculous as gently caress)

never owned a SNES, never owned an n64, never owned a gamecube, never owned a wii, never owned a ds, 3ds, gameboy, gameboyadvance.

yeh p. shameful. primarily a pc gamer. but i got some emulators so which Zelda should I start with?
