The Big Octo definitely has always done the "teleport" thing if you take too long without either catching up to him or him catching up to you. But yeah I didn't remember the jellyfish being part of this fight either, although they showed up in my test runs as well. I'm not sure if it's something weird going on with SoH, or if I'm just the first person to take more than 5 second to throw Ruto up there since 1998. Explopyro posted:re: the question of whether you were ever stuck inside Jabu-Jabu, as far as I know you could always leave even in the earliest versions of the game. It definitely doesn't look like you can, though, with the way his mouth/teeth close behind you, so maybe you made an assumption and are remembering that? Me just being wrong is always a distinct possibility. davidspackage posted:I've been catching up with this LP, wouldn't have thought I could still enjoy watching someone play this game I've played to death myself, but I'm loving it. Great combo of playstyle and fun commentary. Thanks, man. I was a little hesitant to start this one, because I wasn't sure anyone would want to watch another LP of this game, but I've also been enjoying having the girls getting their first look at it. smax posted:I agree. With the reactions to the characters and things in OoT, I’d like to see everyone’s thoughts on the sometimes hilarious and/or grimdark characters in Majora’s Mask. I definitely want to do Majora's Mask in this style at some point as well, but it might not be directly after. I was hoping that MM would be getting a similar SoH treatment, but last I checked that effort had kind of stagnated.

The thing with that guard in the alley is, he only appears in the very short time after you get the three stones, and before you pull out the Master Sword. He's gone after. And most people would run directly to the temple after getting the Ocarina. Also, Frenzy, I have no idea how the hell you got away with having adult Link on screen in that Smash April Fools vid without spoiling this whole thing to the ladies.

I love that as the camera pans around Link at the end of the cutscene right in front of Castle Town, you can still see Zelda's and Ganondorf's horses galloping away. Pretty sure the aspect ratio cutoffs hid that back on an actual N64.  SorryNotMorrie's prediction was honestly too good for Ocarina's plot. I don't think I'm rocking the boat here by saying that Zelda games generally aren't great for their writing, and a game where you have to team up with Ganon(dorf) against some other evil would be cool. Mario's teamed up with Bowser several times (and had at least once by the time Ocarina had come out - in SMRPG), why can't Link team up with his antagonist? I suppose we'll probably never find out, considering Miyamoto apparently hates plot in video games or something like that. SilverChaser on the other hand was remarkably on the ball with her prediction, even remembering the intro cutscene where Link was having a nightmare. She didn't quite call what would happen, but got pretty close. Both jumped right on the "Sheik is Zelda" train right away though

To be fair, Bowser is basically just a selfish destructive goofball. Ganondorf is The reincarnation of the personification of evil, chained by destiny to try to kill Link and Zelda.

Hell, if they're that chained to "Ganon MUST be the ultimate bad guy every time, no exceptions" they could do a game where you have to team up with him temporarily to take out a new threat but he still ends up being the final boss. Maybe it looks like he's going to turn over a new leaf for a while but either it was a Dr. Wily style fakeout or something ends up happening to rekindle the evil (the old "he hit his head and had amnesia and then remembers who he was" saw, or maybe something happens to something or someone he cares about). Maybe the new threat is something that even Ganondorf with all his hatred and lust for vengeance can't ignore to focus on his preferred targets - it's a threat to him personally, or wants to outright destroy Hyrule rather than rule with an iron fist/torment its inhabitants. Maybe he just can't let anyone other than himself kill Link/Zelda. There's ways to go with this where it can still work within the framework they've established, even nowadays.

Heck, just have the Act 1 antagonists of this hypothetical game be cultists trying to resurrect the original incarnation of Demise - which requires Ganondorf's soul - and you have a good enough reason for Big G to team up with Link, and maybe even fake a redemption arc.

Carbon dioxide posted:Also, Frenzy, I have no idea how the hell you got away with having adult Link on screen in that Smash April Fools vid without spoiling this whole thing to the ladies. Lol, the trick is that it was recorded out of order. We did the Smash Bros video after this most recent video, but before the next one. I specifically avoided using an item in Smash Bros that we haven't actually seen in game yet, but the girls did already know that we turn into an adult.

I don't think there's a way to make Ganondorf pretend to be good or otherwise be presented that way, because the player wouldn't believe it and that's always super unsatisfying. I do like the idea of a temporary truce because some other threat wants to destroy Hyrule and Ganondorf realizes there's no point ruling over a pile of ash, but I think you'd still have to fight him at some point. The whole idea kinda reminds me of the half of a level in Halo 3 where you are teamed up with the Flood. Like, you never believe that they are actually on your side, but you are very temporarily aligned in your goals. The other thing that could work if you really wanted to do a Ganondorf redemption is have him be the bad guy throughout the whole game, but at the end reveal that he's been possessed by some other entity. Of course, if that sounds familiar that's because it's basically the villain in Majora's Mask.

It would be amusing to have Ganondorf try to turn it around and be a good guy, and everyone's on board to support him except Zelda and Link who're always giving him the stinkeye and complaining about him being trusted. Then Ganondorf gets fed up with it and decides "gently caress it, might as well" and goes evil again.

Not really, though? I guess you could say that's Girahim's goal, but the true Act 1 villain, Cia, doesn't really care about Demise and thinks she's using Ganondorf towards her goal of killing Zelda and getting in Link's pants when in fact he's manipulating her into putting him into a position where he can be revived again.

AND LET ME RULE IT HAHAHA" and then he gets foiled again.

I always wondered a bit what happens with Ingo after you run off with Epona. Was it a magic spell? Did Talon kick his rear end? Is he just scared of Ganondorf so he gives the ranch back to Talon?

I feel like breaking some sort of curse fits thematically with the game and everything else Link gets up to. But I tend to believe that Ingo just realized that if Ganondorf is going to be mad about a horse, then he doesn't want to be the one in charge when it happens.
