For some reason I got a notion to play all the Zelda games in order, skipping LA because I've played the remake recently. I beat Zelda 1, including the Second Quest, but Zelda 2 made me quit because the last stretch of the game is so unbelievably tortuous to play and I now have a much lower opinion of the game Basically if you enjoy this game, don't ever play it again!

Shibawanko posted:the combat in gargoyle's quest is way better. i kind of appreciate zelda 2 but i don't think it's really a great game, it's nice that the game exists and is different but it doesn't measure up to the standard of the other games I agree with this, but it's saying something that Zelda 3 is called A Link to the Past, and it's not just that it stars Link. What really stood out to me about the transition from 2 to 3 is that the single mechanic that 3 retained was the magic meter, and they made it a thousand times more forgiving in 3. They straight up tell you multiple times that you will not be able to proceed in a dungeon unless you have magic power available, where 2 is like "you can stab statues and it might give you a red potion or it might spawn a red Iron Knuckle who will murder you outright, good luck rear end in a top hat"

Battle of Olympus is one of those games I wouldn't look twice at when I was younger because it was a "ripoff" but now I understand it is the superior game in many respects

Randalor posted:I love how this sparked a huge debate about how "Nintendo obviously mistranslated his name and its supposed to be Errol/Ellor/whateverthefuck" and it turns out that there was a mistranslation... on his friend's name, which is supposed to be Bug. It's a Bug and Error in a video game I was sure it was Errol for years

I think there wasn't really a solid idea of what "a sequel" to a game ought to look like. Would people really just want more of the same? (Turns out, yes)
