    Not even according to that, since they found ones that date past it.

    ^ If it actually ends, I have the feeling that the Mayans will be mighty baffled.

    Crap, you made this joke before I did. I am disappoint.

    Touch the cow. Do it now.
    As someone who is apparently, uh, 1/8 Mayan or something, I say

    Majora's Mask was a cool game, but a bit too hard
  • HexartesHexartes
    I recommend playing it with a guide the first time around, and then picking it up again a few years later and having a vague idea of what you're supposed to do.

    Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
    Don't tell me... My mask... You did...get it back...Didn't you?

    What have you done to me!!! If you leave my mask out there, something terrible will happen!

    Majora was just really scary. Sure Ganondorf was loads more powerful and we kicked his ass in the previous game, but his "arrogant warlock" demeanor inspired more frustration than fear.

    Every Zelda is easy, except for The Adventure of Link.

    And the original Zelda. And Skyward Sword.

    And that's only if you don't consider good puzzle design to be "real" difficulty. And the Zelda series has good puzzle design in spades.

    Yeah, most of the difficulty in the original Zelda stems from having to determine where to do a specific thing you wouldn't have thought to do otherwise based on poorly-translated dialogue that you happen to stumble upon by chance.
  • EelektrossEelektross
    but once you read what the internet says to do
    I think it's obvious why you think Zelda games are easy.

    Anyhow, that reminds me, I still haven't gotten past Lanayru Desert in Skyward Sword.
  • HexartesHexartes
    The combat/puzzle ratio is a lot higher in the earlier games, so when talking about difficulty of the earlier games combat is the main focus.

    I never said that using walkthroughs was bad, I'm just saying that they make the game loads easier.

    The original Zelda was supposed to be the kind of game you discussed with your friends at school, according to Miyamoto. 
  • HexartesHexartes
    Have you played Skyward Sword?

    A lot of people say that game is easy, but I think the biggest thing is that it's so well designed that it's just not as frustrating anymore. The puzzles are mostly easy if you have a very good grasp of Zelda logic.

    If you'll pardon the anachronism, that worked out so well for Pokémon, didn't it?

    Hey, did you hear that if you feed Mewtwo every rare candy in the game after he gets to level 100, he'll evolve into Chrono Mew?

    Did you hear how to get the Triforce in Ocarina of Time
  • HexartesHexartes
    I remember my best friend and I became friends because we both liked Zelda. He told me how to get past the first part of MM before either of us even knew how to read.

    So taking advice from Internet forums is essentially playing it as intended?

    Just keep pushing the button to go past the dialogue.

    Sort of. But there's something about when you're younger, you don't have the internet and all you can do to find out stuff is to seek out that one friend who knows all the secrets behind the games you have.

    I loved that when I was younger. Growing up sort of spoils that part of the gaming experience.

    I am not sure there is a time when today's children are playing the original Zelda but are unfamiliar with the Internet.

    ^ I thought I was the mighty Mushroom King, but I just handed my Mario crown to him!

    Zelda and Kingdom Hearts are the two game series that fill me with the most nostalgia. What's weird is that KH actually tends to elicit more even though it came into my life much later. But man, that series is really good at eliciting emotional reactions.

    BTW Cream, why disembowel yourself when you could learn to smell and taste your way around?
  • Imipolex GImipolex G

    Everyone starts with 20 by default.

    Looking at the list, Prof. Gator has 19. I can't remember what he did to lose that one. :/

    It was posting bird puns in a boobies thread, if I recall correctly.
