I play Zelda I and II at least once every year, and I just find them a chore to play through. It's not that they're bad games, it's just that, like every original game from the NES, it's incredibly dated and relatively unpolished.

WHY

Is it some sort of masochistic ninfag ritual?

Zelda Majoras Mask probably has the best town (clock town is fucking amazing) and dungeons (stone tower) in the series.

It's also the most fun Zelda to just mess around in, town or overworld, partly because of the transformations.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #248 on:** May 15, 2010, 07:08:23 PM »

All of Majora's Mask's dungeons are better than their Ocarina counterparts, save for maybe the Forest dungeon.

Snowhead Temple > Ice Cavern (or if you want to think mountain based, Fire Temple
Great Bay Temple > Water Dungeon
Stone Tower > Shadow Temple

Yeah. It has a lot of sidequests, but you can't miss any. Just talk to everyone. If there's one that you can't do, most likely you have to do another sidequest to trigger it. I beat the game and collected every mask when I was 13. I didn't have anyone who I could talk with about it though. A lot of Zelda fans skipped MM.

MM came out in 2000, and by that time a lot of people I know moved on to DC or PS2. Fuck, the first time I played MM I shelved it because it wasn't OoT 2

OOT and LA are my favorites.

I'd like to see a Zelda that actually brings Hyrule to life. No vast sea or barren wasteland. I understand the game is going to have to be easily initially for kids, but I'd like to see some even harder dugeons as the game progresses, with game play beyond moving blocks and shit. And optional dungeons that are hard as shit, sort of like some of the SMG levels.

And I'd prefer this to be for the PC

Ah, I forgot it had that.

You may be mistaking FSA for the Four Sword mode in the GBA LTTP port; that required more than one person. Four Swords Adventure single player works really well. If you played Minish Cap, controlling the three other characters kinda like it did in that game. You control all for characters and have the option to go into formations and such. Obviously it is much more fun with friends, but I've only managed to work that out like once or twice because of how absurd he circumstances of getting it working were.

there is also an odd effect in single player where entering houses would open a small window and display GBA graphics instead of the much nicer Gamecube ones. The way it works in multiplayer is that everyone moves around the overworld on the TV and entering buildings puts the image on your Gameboy's screen. Gimmicky stuff that could have just been handled with split screen, more or less.

I'm hoping Nintendo learns about online gaming by next gen and puts out a sequel, or even just a version with online co-op.

Beezy · « **Reply #275 on:** May 16, 2010, 12:03:24 PM »

I would have liked to try it more, but the problem is that none of my friends growing up were into Zelda (or Mario) games and didn't own LTTP on GBA. I played with some random guy at a school lunch and it was awkward. They all had the GBA->Gamecube cable things because of that Final Fantasy game.

they designed a bunch of puzzles and traps and the level generator picks some of them and puts them together to make a level. it's fun but there aren't that many different obstacles. also the game only has three or four levels and you're supposed to play through them three times, with each playthough getting a little more difficult. it can get kinda repetitive.

Himu · « **Reply #295 on:** June 09, 2010, 03:28:38 PM »

I read the entire gaf thread. People who are saying TWW structure is different from OoT structure and flow are kidding themselves. It's the same shit, but you're in a boat. MM is the only 3d Zelda with a different flow.

Also, I agree with mudkip in that he says I'm tired with the old shit we've become accustomed to.

See a torch? Light it.
See a switch? Put something on top of it.
See some protrusion in the ceiling? Use hookshot.
See a crack in the wall? Use a bomb.

The whole structure has become canned and it needs new life. I want something completely new and based on the pre-release talk of the game they're trying to do just that.

If it's first person, so be it, so long as it's different and actually good and doesn't cater to the lowest common denominator (meaning, I hope it's not as easy as WW or TP).
