TICCY PLAYS ZELDA BREATH OF THE WILD part 3: Gerudo desert

Yes I know that after the Zora I was probably suppose to go for the Gorons, but this is an open world, and I do what I want (real reason: ... I hate lava levels)

But before the plot, some random things I did these days I’m very proud of.

1: I TOOK ALL MY COURAGE AND I WENT TO FIGHT LYNEL I was super scared, Lynel is insane and I was 98% sure to fail, so I went there with super buffed defense and my best weapons...

GLORIOUS tha’s it, I won the game.

my throphies~

2 SO I DECIDED IT WAS A GOOD MOMENT TO FIGHT A GUARDIAN I mean, I defeated lynel, I can defeat a guardian... right?

right. ok so I found the right way to dead with these demons.. omg at the end it wasn’t even targetting me anymore, it was just...depressed and defeated. I almost felt sorry for it. But it was for a brief moment.

Next time on this channel: can we defeat guardiancopters too? stay tuned.

Gerudo Desert

In ocarina of time, the gerudo fortress is one of my favourite places, so understand me if I was so impatient to go to check it out. Also I didn’t saw the gerudos yet in this game so...

SDFGHFGF omg those ABS do not mess with them dfgh Omg so the theory of them leaving their place to travel the world, get a mate and go back with female children was canon oh my god. Thanks nintendo to give us these infos \ o /

Soooo of course Link can’t get into the citadel since he is a boy.... and the answer killed me.

I’M SO GLAD I GOT IT UNSPOILERED oh my god I’m still laughing

sdfdg LINK you are a wonderful lady, so shy (bless this game)

Soo back to our quest, meeting the small matriarch

She is so cool I’m gonna cry.

SMALL QUEEN I bet she will get tall like Sidon when she is adult.

Baha the quest to get back the helmet was fun, why these giants uberstrong ninjas are so crazy for BANANAS. their most precious treasure. Their boss was fun, it looked scary but was very easy to take down

Now that we got the helmet,we can go to free the next giant colossus/guardian/robo camel. if ONLY THE SEAL COULD GO WHERE I WANT IT TO GO. I almost got killed in the stupiest way and Riju kept yelling at me, I’m sorry I failed you.

The dungeon itself was easy tho?? I found it easier then Vah Ruta, but maybe because I got the theories behind these puzzles. The Boss tho wAS INSANE WHAT THE HECK. Maybe it was because I was tired, sleepy and angry that I couldn’t find a way to fight his thunders, I gave up and I took a glimpse to the boss fight guide I’M SORRY I was really stuck and embittered. Of course the pillars were made of iron dfgf they looked like made of stone. orz.

WELL. I saw her in one of the memories but I wish I could see her for the first time here. Dang Urbosa is COOL. SO DAMN COOL I like her voice and her character sdfdg snapping thunders like a boss. I love Gerudos so much I’m glad I took this path.

Ok, super important info right here: Urbosa mentions Nabooru as the ancient gerudo sage that inspired the name of vah naboris (and it was something I noticed already, but I wasn’t sure if it was just an easter egg like all the names on the maps, or if it was made by purpose). I know it doesn’t means a lot buuuuuut I have to keep it in mind for later theories.

 I love this game you have no idea.

And now for the memories section:

(^^^^ holy f Link these are tons of enemies anD IS THAT A BLACK LYNEL?!! I’m out.)

Get these memories become one of my favourite parts. I’m like “ok in this pic you see this thing and that element and that castle angle, so it must be around here somewhere”. And dang, I think this is the first time we see this aspect of a Zelda? Usually all the princess knows more or less what they have to do and how to guide you. Breath Zelda is so.... confused and “inadeguate”? Poor darling oh my god, she can sense that the danger is coming, but doesn’t know how to deal with it. Speaking of memories.... ... I’m gonna get the hyrule castle one WATCH ME I want to know more about it

target aquired, no guardians on my way. I’m going.

there are like 2 guardians walking around but so far no one saw me. I’m ready to fight those damns, I just really want this memory.

SUCCESS! Aaah it was a good one (and even if goron was talking, I heard Zelda saying stuff in the bg like “may you be the sacred hero, in the folds of time, in the twilight shadows, in the infinite seas and the clear skyes...�� and I was grinning because it’s impossible for them to know all those heroes versions together, but they still can aha.)

And while I was thinking about all this...

bibibibiibibbibi

bi bibye I’m out.

I miss now just 3 of them, I can’t wait to get them all.

Some cool not plot things I found around the way (warning potential spoilers):

oooh hohoh so I decided to go on the top of snowy mountain to visit the wisdom fountain and oooooooooh dang there it is, the blue dragon! More black now tho...

this is not creepy at all.

it was a good fight aaah, go now dragon, you are free.

And then  I saw this glowing mountain, like what the??? there is something up there I need to check?? The music then went all scary, I thought it was some gian Lynel or something similar sdfgf but then

oh it’s a mystic fountain. Omg is that a special horse, can I get it?

OH MY YOU CAN RIDE IT FOR REAL AAAAH. sdfdg this thing has like 5 sprints and never gets tired, and it’s name is LORD sdgfdgd I found the lord of horses people, I don’t need Epona anymore.

This dude: seems that around here there is something or someone called Lord”. Ah yes, I love blind npc.

sddsgd the guy at the stables “oh what a nice a horse wanna register it- wait a second isn’t that LORD? A re you CRAZY? HE IS GOING TO CURSE US ALL!!” sdfdgd well, at least it was a nice ride, I gave him an apple, he posed for me for my camera and then it left. Good bye lord of horses.

Not happy tho I decided to complete the giant horse quest. I was expecting to see some kind of monster or something weird...

oh my god I saw already something like that....

this is... no wait I don’t want to get my hopes up, they will kick me out for sure bringing this beast to the stabels...

OH MY GOD I CAN I HAVE GANONDORF’s HORSE oh my god, I have them all now, Epona (thanks amiibo), Zelda’s white horse and this giant beast. oh my god. I love this GAME IS RIDICULOUS.

And that’s is everyone, next time I will go for the Gorons, i promise.

[cadkeyper]

Hi my name is Ark and I’m armed with pure delusion, today I’ll be talking about how I could/ would beat every single classic Creepypasta. RIP to the victims, but I’m built different. I barely ever leave my room, I did martial arts training years ago, and I am fueled by nothing other than the McDonalds sprite that runs through my veins. So I think I’m pretty qualified. For the sake of this, I will not allow any of them to be armed with their weapons, this is fist to fist combat.

Nina the killer

In her original story, she’s literally just a nine year old with a knife. I would grab her by the ponytail, and swing her around until she reached a high enough velocity for me to let go and have her hurtle directly into the sun

Ben Drowned / Sonic EXE

I put these two together because the strategy for beating them is pretty much the same. First of all, I’m not a nerd. I would never play sonic or zelda, but let’s say for the sake of debate, I do. After the first time weird things happen, I WOULD OBVIOUSLY STOP PLAYING THE GAME. I turn off my tv, break it, set it on fire, and then I would take the game cartridge, put it in a blender until it was a fine purée, and then drink it to absorb their power

Smile dog

I literally never read my emails.

Jeff the killer

If we’re talking the original, I would whoop his ass so fast it’s not even funny. Once again, he’s like a 13 year old with a knife and a Joker complex. I would slap the shit out of him so hard that it knocks the smile off his face.

Ticci Toby

He can’t feel pain so I would have a harder time getting him down. However, he does have Tourette's, and as somebody who also has it, I would just tic which would trigger him to tic, (this happens from personal experience it’s agony) and then I would get him. (This may also result in me ticcing back, and we would reach a stalemate)

Eyeless Jack

I literally never sleep, so if he wants to sneak into my room at night to take my kidneys, good luck. If he got within a foot of me, I would jab my fingers into his eye sockets and make him double blind. As he stumbles around with double no eyes, I lunge at him and I take HIS kidneys. See how he likes it.

Laughing Jack

I could beat him as a child. If he tried to pretend to be my imaginary friend, I’d completely exhaust him. I was a wolf kid. I had a reputation for how hard I could kick people in the shin. I am not defending myself from him, he’s defending himself from me. I would grab his nose and twist until it made a 🌀shape

The Rake

If he runs at me, I will simply kick him in the face so hard that all of his teeth fall out. Before the battle, I would rub my entire body in the most foul tasting, disgusting thing you could ever imagine. Like ghost peppers, or limes, or bananas. So when he goes to bite me, he recoils and is so disgusted he retreats, allowing me to win by default

Slenderman

If I’m not mistaken, he likes to stalk his victims before finishing them off to drive them bonkers. He tries this with me, that’s his first mistake. Every time I see him, I will also set off an extremely loud obnoxious noise, like an airhorn, or any song on my kazoo. He thinks he’s coming to stand outside my window and jumpscare me, WRONG he’s getting his eardrums blown out with every Nicki Minaj song ever released. In addition to that, I will go out of my way to constantly bully him at every turn. Instead of drawing cryptic symbols on my walls, I’m writing stuff like “SLENDERMAN IS SO TALL HIS PRONOUNS ARE FE/FI/FO FUM”. He will eventually grow so frustrated/ confused at my constant harassment that he decides to leave me alone and that I am not worth the effort. If he sends his proxies after me, we’ve already established that I could absolutely dominate each and every single bone in their bodies This has been my personal guide to beating most of the classic Creepypasta’s and I do not take constructive criticism <3 

[decommissionedaccount]

Mh AU where:

Tim is a single dad, and has three (adopted) children (Jay, Brian, and Alex).

Jay is 14, and is so fucking edgy. Like, imagine Brendon Urie, but edgier, and a teenager. Then sprinkle some salt onto that, and bam, there's Jay. He listens to every emo band out there (Gorillaz, Panic! At The Disco, My Chemical Romance, Twenty One Pilots, etc.). He always acts like he despises Tim, but is really a soft Twinkie, and actually aspires to be just like his adopted dad.

Alex is a 10-year-old geek. The nerdiest nerd, but still kind of a jerk. The reads all kinds of comic books, and has a passion for filmography. Also, glasses and braces. Basically the Natsuki of the family. He loves watching movies, too (Cars is his favorite). He has a secret passion, though: Drawing. He loves to draw. He already has a few small boxes full of notebooks.

Brian, 7 years old, is a gamer child. He has a switch and plays it all. The. Time. He loves playing Legend of Zelda, as well as Pokémon. Most of his time is spent playing games, but he goes outside at least thrice a week. He is arguably the most cooperative with Tim.

Tim is always trying his best to keep the children happy. However, when push comes to shove, he will be stern. More often then not, this happens with Jay. It legitimately breaks Tim's heart when his son forces him out of his life.

Other characters:

Sarah. One of Brian's classmates, Sarah is pretty standoffish. She always gets in trouble, usually for getting in fights after trying to defend kids who get picked on. She is really nice, but a lot of kids are too scared of her.

Amy. Alex's classmate, closest friend, and alleged girlfriend, Amy is so sweet. Like, she'll make cookies for you if you let her borrow a pencil.

Seth. Another one of Alex's classmates, as well as his rival, Seth is a force to be reckoned with. He's a good kid, and he can take a lot of abuse without having a breakdown. He takes no one's bullshit. Like, if someone were to punch him, he'd punch back. He's also an avid animal lover. Dogs, cats, birds, you name it. His favorite animal is (surprisingly) turtles, despite the fact that he has a dog, and once brought that dog to school.

Jessica. An old friend of Jay's, back when Jay still lived with his bio family. She's really polite, formal, and generally sophisticated.

Toby (Yes, Ticci Toby is included, because the concept for his character in the au is just too adorable, yet angsty). Jay's best friend, Toby is also pretty damn edgy. Not as much as Jay, but still pretty edgy. He's been living in the woods (he ran away from home after having enough from his dad), but he still checks in on Jay each and every day. He's very awkward and protective, and holds loyalty above anything else.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

TICCY PLAYS ZELDA BREATH OF THE WILD part 1: the beginning

(mostly about the first zone, and some early things you see once you get the explore the whole world) (spoilers, probably, read it only if you have completed at least the first zone (part 1) AND you fixed your tablet (part 2))

I’m so hyped woooh, I honestly don’t know what to expect for this game storywise, I avoided all the spoilers like a mad, I don’t want to know anything, don’t tell me anything, read only if you played already/you don’t really care about small adventure spoilers. (I will divide these posts in main quest points, so you know where to stop if you aren’t there yet.)

Awakening, first zone:

Just woke up and I’m already messing with controls of items I don’t have, Link animations are sO CUTE, what a dork. And boy JUMPS that’s so weird, I will miss the rolls.

The intro is so pretty and artsy and movie like I’m going to cry.

What is this I never saw anything like this in my whole life, a precious ???

Ready to burn everything down

Soooo, being silly apart, the details are INSANE, look how many things there are to explore, I can’t believe this is the smallest zone of the map I’m already lost, so much things to explore...!!!!

Interesting. I still have to make my idea of when this game is set.... the presence of the WW symbols def cut out the majora timeline. I know everyone is about the post future ocarina/windwaker timeline, buuuuuut... what if it’s in the doomed timeline: Ganondorf wins, sages imprisons him in the sacred realm, post alttp, post the legend of zelda and zelda II.... it was a ruined timeline after all, and the only one with Ganon as immortal entity, pure suine rage.... oh well it’s too early for this kind of rambles, I guess they will tell us more in the future.

.... this is fineeeee.

More exploring, oh my god the enemies are stronger than I expected and weapons keep getting destroyed like breadstick I WANT A REAL SWORD *cries* Well I guess the amount of gameover I will get in this game will be embarassing.

And the cooking is silly and funny omg, just throw everything you have look at him HE IS SO HAPPY!! FOOD!! now I’m hungry

Also the Golem in the forest really scared me, I couldn’t even run away that a rock smashed me like a boiled potato. Rip Link for the 11th time. I appreciate that the game respawn you like 2 mins before you died, like “listen child, you can’t beat it, just run, love yourself). I beated him later tho, Just needed a good weapon.

Explore explore, getting all the shrines, guardians are scary, and I still have to meet the walking ones. Who decided it was a good idea to build tons of them, I bet they will all revive at some point in the later game, so every chill zone becomes DANGER. (just my theory).

Aaand the sheikan tablet is so cool aaah so basically you have all the important items super early, so you don’t have to go back in zones because you didn’t have a bomb to open a cave, I love this game.

Post first 4 shrines, talking to old man

Sooo old man is King Hyrule ohohohoho what a surprise I wasn’t expecting that at all.

Mah boi

... 10.000 years. Why Zelda games have this ABSURD concept of time, I mean, I can get the 100 years of post calamity but 10.000??? when it was even set sdfghfg they really love to make fun of zelda thorist, don’t they? I will get an headache to try to make a sense of this mess.

Got Paraglider!! I guess we are ready for our big adventure, yuhuuu good bye first zone, you looked scary, and I bet it’s like.. kindergarden. Can wait to be killed in less than 2 minutes.

Exploring around the first zone

Guess what I wasn’t killed in less than 2 minutes! But I got a horse!! sdfd they are hard to control help.

I can’t believe I can have a punk horse.

Doggo got the tail I repeat, DOGGO GOT THE TAIL, important update, good job doggo, take a some meat.

I can’t believe all NPC have an unique look and a NAME. I thought she was some important person, but then noooo everyone walking in this realm is different, this game is INSANE.

And now on the creepy things I saw in my first walking around.

that’s a huge storm of bats oh my god, their eyes turn all RED when attacking, better if I get down...

...

 wait...

that’s... is that normal...?

....... this is not normal..... what is... is that the moon ??????

THAT’S NOT NORMAL AT ALL, WHERE DO I ESCAPE SHIII II ITTTT well I guess I’m dead. (suprise: it doesn’t kill you... yet.)

This is the creepiest thing I saw so far, I hate this game oh my god I was like yelling at Shiny “I saw the creepiest thing” “me too” “it was red” “YEPPP” “THE FUCKING MOON” we are good at avoid spoilers to each other.

BTW! I got my Wolf Link amiibo

A good doggo. Has more hearts than me. He hunts down every things that move. Don’t kills the foxes doggo. Also aggro all the enemies around. Bad Doggo.

(Part 2)

Kakariko Village, meeting Impa

it makes me laugh that Kakariko is now a ninja village, omg I love their design. And why everyone is so sassy, EVEN LINK IS I love some of his replies. Lmao Impa, I bet we will see her in some past memories like super young and hot and cool. Also Paya is cute, she will grow up a crush on Link 100%.

Also Impa: Link go to that village. Move! me: nah I will explore lake hylia bye. I will never finish the game. 

This game is INSANEEEE omg how many thing you can explore, I lost myself tons of time, also it’s a droug can’t stop playing GOTTA SEE THINGS *cries* well I guess I will never draw again.

Sdsfdfdgfd the GREAT FAIRY, didn’t take picture, but of you are around Kakariko, take 5 mins to visit it, totally worth it. Also stealing all the fairies, life safer, who need bottles anymore, we are in the 10.000 post something, this is the future.

Getting the tablet fixed, Hateno/Finterra (ita) village

So I was totally exploring randomly, and I found this village like “whoooo this one is so hidden, I’m totally off track, am I?  Then I figured out that it was where I was supposed to go, asdsfd success?? Got fancy clothes and a HOUSE please tell me it’s worth, I had to sell all my pretty gems. I can save a couple of weapons tho at least, I have some sheikan shrine weapons I don’t want to destroy yet *hangs them* good.

Asdsfdgd the camera thing, oh my god this means I have to take picture of EVERYTHING to complete the album... sigh, another thing I will lose my life after I guess.

Memories unlocked, first memory found

Ok so I was looking at zelda’s pictures and I recognized a place and it took me 1 hour to find again sfdgfd I’m smart. I also visited it before Impa asked me to actually find one, why I’m so impatient adsfgd

I’m in love.

WHY THIS GAME IS SO PRETTY AND MAKES ME CRY INSIDE sdfdgs I will never stop to yell about it... omgggg also this scene was super nice and sweet aawww, now I cry more. Also ita dubbing confirmed to be nice enough to not make me cringe, thank you *prays*

Stay tuned for more ticcy adventure, I love this game help.

Also Bonus thing I should be quiet about because it’s spoiler (? not about story tho) and I was so WOW when I saw it,but I also want to yell about it so beware. Hints: it’s green, it flies and it was near the lake.

..

.

.

.

.

.

So I was chilling around getting some strong weapons from lizarfos and....

... what is... that???

Oh my gOd It’S A DRAGON. A GIANT DRAGON IS FLYING SUPER CHILL  ON THE WATER. WHAT.

GIANT DRAGON!!!!!!!!!

I hadn’t the camera yet then so I couldn’t register it in the tablet MMMMH I hope to see it again! It also killed me, good thing I had a fairy with me. I discovered later that is not a boss, and can’t be killed, you just get a scale from it for future sake. And apparently there are others around the worls, o h my god this game Is INSANE

goodbye dragon ;0; sorry if I shoot you with an arrow

[ticcytx]

Sooooo tomorrow is Zelda day! I will probably close myself playing at it, trying to avoid all the spoilers and damns and crying over it for the rest of the month.

Question: would you like to get a ticcy plays breath of the wild, spoiler tagged, under cut rambling and probably me embarassing myself at the games I should be good at?

Not sure about how to tag the spoilers chapter after chapters tho, I will figure it out. (of course I think it would be better to read after you have played that part, so we can all laugh together about how silly I am) ?

TICCY PLAYS ZELDA BREATH OF THE WILD part 2: Zora Domain

(And various things in the south east zones)

Going to meet the Zoras

it’s been 4/5 days of gaming, and I finally decided to go for the Zora Domain, after I basically unlocked and rolled all over the beach zones. This game and the nature is so pretty I can’t just stop to look at them sdfgdf. Too much things to explore and see, help.

ALLERT ALLERT ZORA ARE SO PRETTY??? HELLO DUDE PRINCE??? dang I love their design in this

HE IS SIDON PRINCE OF ZORA I love him oh my god he does the sparkle when he smiles I LOVE HIM.

Zora domain is soooo prettyyyyy aaaaah omg omg I love everything in here I want to buy a house here, can I please, I want to live here forever ;0;

And also oooooh I really appreciated that old zoras remember Link and thEY HATE HIM, dang this is sad and awful, Link really did a bad number in the past uh. I bet the whole story will be heartbreacking ;0;

Omgg she is so cute. Oh no. And of course she was in love with him, all princesses zora are....

I love zoras.

Also looking at the map, I read some of the names of places and: mountain Ruto, Lake Lulù, lake MIKAU, Laruto and Rals, omggg everything is just a giant reference (also thanks to me being a huge zelda nerd I recognized immediately the location of the zora helmet, aha nice try game)

First guardian, Ruta

Plot plot, we have to give a kick to elephant robot so it stops to drown everything around. And oh my god “go fight Lynel to get some thunder arrow!” ARE YOU CRAZY I saw that thing 500 miles far in another zone and it had 2k of life and he shoot everything at me I’M NOPE.  I will try again when I will have like... a mastersword and several hearts because right now I can’t. Oh ok I just have to take the arrows around, nice, Metal gear Link.

hello you are creepy.

Lmao he is giant compared to Link, sdfdgdf he is taller than the most of other zoras too... guess it runs in the royal family uh.

Omggg this fight was so cool, good thing I had with me 200+ arrows, how you are suppose to do anything in this game without arrows.....

ZOOOOOOOMM

HELLO YOU ARE CREEPY, why this game is so creepy sometimes. Ok the whole elephant dungeon thing got me a bit by suprise? I forgot I was playing a Zelda game, of course there are dungeons and bosses.

Oh no the ending, oh no my feels, oh no.... Mipha ;0; she is so cute, I hate this game already damnit.

hard guessing time: there is no way Zelda is actually all nicely alive and in one piece, I smell already a super sad bittersweet ending.

Exploring around, no plot, just random discoveries

I don’t really know how to tag the spoilers here, it’s just about things I found south-east zones, soo... I will try to be less specific I can?

first: I found where I had to put the dragon scale, and now I have a new weapon I don’t want to break. :°°°D I hanged it in my house it deserves a pretty place.

second: you can ride THESE

he is better than my normal horses... rip with the sun tho, it was nice as long it lasted.

third: So I menaged to get round the hyrule field tower and I killed one of the half broken guardian, it’s a small victory but I WAS SO SADISFIED take this jerk. I have no courage at all to fight a real guardian though sdfhj they are scary.

Also tip for the hyrule field: take a pic of the wandering guardian, set the radar on them and then you know when one is around and how to avoid it.

Four: I found a blue hinox some days ago and I kicked his fat ass, let me brag about it for 5 seconds

five:

This is the closer I will ver get to this damn place, I saw flying guardians and I’m already nope. Sorry Zelda, I prefer go hunting for mushrooms.

MORE MEMORIES stop here if you haven’t found them already and if you want to avoid all the smallest spoilers.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.ok I did my best.

So the painter in Kakariko gives you directions and hints about these places, that’s cool!! thanks to him I found a couple of them.

He sent me first in the snowy mountain door, the second last one, and the nearest to kakariko.

why this game is so pretty™

I DON’T THINK I WAS SUPPOSED TO SEE THIS ONE SO EARLY?? Damn it painter dude, why you sent me there, these are spoilers (???) omgg tho the Gerudo champion is really wow I never saw her.

these are two different memories, but I laugh to see Zelda walking around with the tablet taking pic like a turist sdfg like “don’t worry we aren’t lost I gOT IT”, and Link just walking behind like “... we are lost aren’t we.” Omg why Zelda lines are always so malinconic, what happened to you girl.

sdfsdgfdhgfhgf “look at this pretty frog!” omg Zelda PLEASE

I love this game so much I can’t stop playing someone please send help

Alsooo if you have zelda amiibos, tap them, they are worth! Mostly the Link one.

Now I should go to the death mountain, but I think I will go on the weast, to see what I’m mis-

ANOTHER DRAGON FRIEND!!! he was too far I couldn’t reach him NEXT TIME!! *shakes fist*

[ticcytx]

What Legend of Zelda games have you played and which one of them is your favorite? As an aside, have really enjoyed all your Inktober arts. :)

I’ve played and completed all of them except for Zelda II, which I started on my 3ds but I got lost and I gave up, it’s not the kind of zelda I’m used to /)__(\

My favourite ones are Ocarina and Twilight Princess, if I have to pick the super top of the list, but I like all of them after all, it’s my favurite game saga :D

And thank you very much, I’m really glad you like them!! °///°

[ticcytx]

There are many theories about what Majora's Mask is really about. What is your view on that game's story?

Ah, this one is hard to answer.I like the idea that Termina is actually a Link's mental place. Like, that is not a real place, with real people, but a subconscius state. I know that at the time they used the same character models of Ocarina because Aonuma had literally just a year to create a new, amazing Zelda, so they recycled a lot of stuff. Still.. I can't get over the fact that Termina is populated by a lot of "kinda like" characters he already met. 

Also the whole 3 days things, and the costant time travel to make everything he needs to save the place, it can be a representation of the lack of time he lived during Ocarina. He couldn't stop Ganondorf to get Hyrule, and he left him being the evil king for 7 years, while he was "sleeping" in the chamber of sages. When he started his journey on Ocarina, he was just a little kokiri who didn't know anything of the world, and the whole princess zelda's hero quest was a game, it was a game for both of them. And when things turned out bad, and Ganondorf took Hyrule, they both lived the terryfing realization that they couldn't do anything for real to stop him. Zelda spent 7 years hiding and regretting her naivety (making her more wise later), but Link had to live all of this in a rush. He was brave enough to keep it together, and complete his quest, but when he turned back, 10 again, but with the mind of a grow up... I don't think he took it very well. He knew that he failed, as chosen hero (not because it was his fault, but because he was too young and weak), and because of this, a devasted Hyrule is existing, in some universe. So he started his journey, to find Navi, yes, but also to find himself, and prove his true value.

The Lost Woods then are a weird place. Only Kokiri and Skull Kids can live there, forever young, like Peter Pan's lost Boys. It's said in Ocarina that adults lose themself in that Forest, because it's not the place for them. And post Ocarina Link, even if he is a ten and he grow up in that forest, is still a kid? I think that after Ocarina he lost is childlike naivety, and he is more mature than his actual age. So, when he fall in the hole, following Skull kid, he is really falling in an another universe, or it's just a mental journey? Maybe is both, maybe Termina is that surreal place where people minds go.So, just to do a little summary: Termina can be Hyrule, and the fact that the moon (which can be Ganondorf, a huge, catastrophic disasters that can't be stopped) is going to crush it, means how the evil king was going to destroy the realm. The dead spirits he met, (the races masks) and basically every race agony (zoras, gorons, and dekus), can be all the creatures he couldn't save in Ocarina. Goron got eaten by Volvagia, Zora got frozen and kokiri (dekus) was invaded by monsters. Even if it wasn't his fault, you can say that he feels guilty for that, because he was supposed to protect and save them , being the hero's spirit. Then, the Fierce Diety Mask. The last mask you get, the most powerful one, that trasfom Link in an adult again, a semi god who can do everything and can save the day easly. Of course you can complete Majora's Mask without it... but that mask EXISTS. And of course it rapresent Link true wish, be adult again, be strong again to be the hero he is supposed to be.

And to finish this, Majora too can be a metaphor. Majora is childish, can't really understand that what it's doing is dangerous for people, it doesn't even care, because everything is a game. And as I said before, past Ocarina Link lost his childsh spirit, and regrets that little "game" he did with Zelda to save Hyrule. Maybe it's his way to redeem himself, and to defeat once for all his regrets, fighting that incarnation of unconsciousness.

Ok I think I wrote enough theories about it... I really hope it makes some sense, because I really enjoy to talk about these Zelda thories things (and in my brain it has a sense ahah :°D)

But I'm sure that back then in 2000, no one in the Nintendo headquarters come up with this kind of stories... but they are fun to build up, ahah!

What do you ship in LOZ? Love your art

Mmmh, I’m not an active shipper in Zelda fandoms, still I’ve a couple of ships I really enjoy in the whole saga, like… WWLink/Tetra and STLink/Zelda mostly… SSLink/Zelda too is cute! Then I suppose that Alltp Link and Zelda ended together canonly, if you consider the oracles, link’s awakening AND that hiddend hint in Albw.About the other games, I don’t have a favourite couple… Even if I like TP Link and Zelda to death, I’m not sure they will be a couple in that game, because they interacted just 3 times in the whole story… Midna/Link are more like a brotp to me, and Link/Ilia can be cute, but I never thought about it a lot. Same about Ocarina, and the other games left, I can’t pick a ship I like for real. (except Anju/Kafei. that is THE OTP, hands down, can’t wait to cry over them in 3d ;A;)

Did you see that limited edition statue of Skull Kid wearing Majora's Mask?!!!

Yes, and it's already preordered, thanks to wonderful friend in the US ♥

When I'm too distracted to follow the internet, friends think about feeding my Zelda nerdess, so yep, I'm doomed

Legend of Zelda?

ehehe ahaha ok, I was ready for this. (under cut because it's a long story and I'm logorroic)

Well... I think it was... 2003? Late 2003. At that time I was super friend with a boy that had TONS of games. But really a lot, he had all the consoles and all the games, and for me, that I barely had a game boy color, his house was the paradise. I went often to visit him to have good gaming afternoons! XD So it was his birthday, or some day after that, and he was super excited of the last game they gave to him... it was about a little cute green boy, with sword and bow, and holy crappy crap, what is this thing is super cool, super nice, omg this game, it took me 1 hour of gameplay to fall in love with it. So once at home, where my family was super "No." about game consoles, I started to search on internet about this "Zelda" thing. And "wow, sure this saga is pretty cool, I want to play at it very badly D°:". After a while, I found a demo of a fan game made with RPG Maker, or something like that... it was about a green hero called Link who was desperate about the recent death of his beloved Princess Zelda, but a sage told him that if he could collect the Triforce, maybe he could save the princess. Thinking about it now, it wasn't anything special.. but for a 13 old me that was the best. thing. ever. (at that time my only games where.. pokemon... a dragon ball card game and.. harry potter?). But nothing could change my parents opinion about games, soo, no epic game console Zelda for me. And maybe that block increased the passion for those games in me, because I really WANTED to play at those games, above everything else, someday.In 2004 (I think), I remember I went with my parents to big city to see a musical, and while we were waiting for the thing, I discovered the best place ever: a Game Stop. (I'm still laughing about how much provicial I was, ahah). And in that paradise, where everything was cool and pretty and "look at all these games I'll never play with", my eyes fell on a game boy advance  game: "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past". Holy frick frack  what is this, is that really a Zelda game for GBA, omg, I NEED it. I don't think I ever begged my mom so much about a thing. And it actually worked! So I could have my first Zelda game and... start with an action Rpg like A Link to the Past when my game experience was just about turn-battle-system rpg games... wasn't a good idea. It took me a year to complete it, I died 120 times and I needed a guide in french, (because 14 me was a disaster in internet research). For my gaming experience it was like a slap, a true taste of what is play a good old videogame, and if the story wasn't what I was expecting, dang, I loved it.After that I started a little, subdle battle against my family about videogames. If I couldn't convince them to buy them, then I would have bought those games by my own, with the money I could collect. After a Link to the Past I started to search all the games of the saga I could... I start to following Nintendo news, and I did my own reseach about the games, timeline theories, and the characters. Everytime I could play with a new title (new game, emulator or borrowed by a kind friend), I felt like it was Christmas. (I was screaming when I played for the first time Ocarina of Time on emulator, and in 2007, when I could buy a Wii with Twilight Princess... I was near to cry :°D

So here we are :°D At this moment I've played and finished all the games of the saga less...Zelda II Adventure of Link, that is on my 3ds right now, but still I haven't had time to play at it. (and Hyrule warriors askdsh SOON). It really rappresent everything I love more, and also my personal victory in games passion.

May the Triforce be with you

Thoughts on LoZ: Spirit Tracks and LoZ: Phantom Hourglass?

ok this one will be long

I start with Phantom Hourglass, because it came first.First thing to say: it was the first zelda game for ds family. Usually Zelda on portable console was a pixely game with a top down view, pretty old school game. On NintendoDS, Nintendo tried some new things, so they tested all DS potentials with this game, both in graphic and gameplay. Second thing to say: I love to death Wind Waker. It was the first Zelda I EVER saw in my life, and probably it's its fault if I fell in love with this saga. Phantom Hourglass is the direct sequel, Toon Link is the same, there is Tetra, and all the pirate crew, but also it introduces a good number of new characters. But of those characters, at the end you remember like.. 3 of them? Said this, I can say that I totally appreciate the wind waker sequel thing, but using characters I love already it’s not enough to make me fall in love with it. I find it… incomplete? The gameplay is super nice, the graphic too, and travel with the ferryboat is funny, and Lineback is a good character, but… something is missing. Probably is the plot that is a bit poor (I can see the wink to link’s awakening but… nah…) … maybe is the world that is too anonymous and I can’t really remember a single island of that place…  or maybe is the lack of exploring… I don’t know. But for me, Phantom Hourglass goes at the bottom of my zelda list. Is not a bad game but.. not my favourite. Also Tetra is a bit ooc in some part and… I love sassy pirate queen WW Tetra, don’t touch her. (And the evil is a bit flat… just an evil thing that controls everything, but why? No one knows)

Let’s talk about Spirit Tracks. The console is the same, graphic and gameplay basically the same, and they changed the ferryboat with a train, that should be even WORST, because the free exploring part is totally missing in this case. Though, I love, love, LOVE Spirit Tracks. It’s the true Wind Waker sequel for me. Set after 100 years, a new hero and a new princess have to save the New Hyrule: it’s full of wind waker references, there is even an old Nico, who keeps to tell stories about the past and AUGH my feels.Also princess Zelda, can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that for once she is PART of the quest, and not the final price of the hero? You have still to save her, of course, but she wants to save herself too, and toon link + spirt zelda is one of the best team… only Link+Midna is better. P. Zelda in this game made me laugh so, so so much, I loved every single time she freaked out, bless her. And another super important thing, her development, she start as a spoiled princess, but during her adventure she learn what really means be a ruler of a kingdom and kdshgkfdh no ok, best thing.And the rest of the game is super nice too! The world is super cool, and I loved to visit it with the train, even if some travels were a little too long, but knowing how to use the warps, you can do all the train part quickly.The Evil guy too, very cool and I liked him, and the side characters and Byrne! The final battle and the ending too, I cried a little, and I think I’ll cry again if I replay it. ;A;For me Spirit Tracks is a 10/10, great story, great characters, great bosses, nice world, epic music and yes, great, play it.

Hello! I recently finished playing through Link Between Worlds (and have just started another file on hero mode) and I read your review on it. I am (hopefully) getting Ocarina of Time for the 3DS on Sunday and want to know what you think of it (without spoilers, if at all possible?), like if you rank it higher than Link Between Worlds, etc. (because I enjoyed it a lot - then again, it was my first LoZ game) Thanks! c:

Hello! Ah, that's totally cool!! I'm happy to know that you liked it!! :DD

Ooooh I liked Ocarina of Time 3D a lot... for everyone, the old OoT for N64 is the best Zelda ever, because it was the first one in 3d graphic, and it opened a new path for the Zelda franchise. But that was '97, now it's plenty of third person fantasy games where you can do your quest and be all epic, so it's harder get all excited to see a 3D green hero walking in the Hyrule Field with a tiny sword and a wooden shied. What I'm hoping is that you fall more in love with the story, and the characters, because I still think that Ocarina of Time has one of the best Zelda plot ever. Then the 3DS graphic gives it a new fresh live, and the cutscenes are all awesome.♥

So, have fun with Ocarina of Time! I hope you can like it!!!

Given our mutual love of The Legend of Zelda (All glory to the Triforce!), do you have a particular favorite song from the series?

THE WHOLE SOUNDTRACK. D°°°:

Ebhbh no ok seriously.. there are some tracks that when I listen to them I get all teary like.. Orchestral Gerudo Valley, or Spirit Tracks main theme or… Sheik main theme ç___ç

Let’s be realistic. The Legend of Zelda has one of the most great soundtracks of the universe, AND the best fan music covers. (Theophany anyone?)
