    So, as a kid, my parents never let me and my sister watch PG-13/R movies or play T/M rated games until we were the "right age" as suggested by the ratings board. For my 10th birthday, I asked for a "Zelda game" (I wanted Minish Cap because my cousins had it and I loved playing it when we visited and wanted it for myself), and my grandpa got me this, which had just released. I was hyped beyond belief, but this is the ONLY Zelda game to have a T rating. When my parents asked me what the rating on the front said, I lied to their face and said E10 (T rating is ages 13+ to those who don't know). They never bothered to look themselves and I'm forever grateful. I sunk literally HUNDREDS of hours into this game as a kid, sometimes just turning it on to run around the overworld as a wolf. Arbriter's Grounds scared the shit out of me but still became my favorite dungeon of all time. Midna is the best Zelda/Nintendo companion ever. This game is amazing and will remain in my top 3 games of all time.

      ​@@mgb360 there was a time when age ratings were worse than worthless and i have a perfect example that i love to bring up every time age ratings are mentioned
      ever heard of breath of fire 3? you know, a classic gem of an RPG that starts with the protagonist burning people to death, shortly followed by him getting taken in by orphan thieves who promptly get tasked with killing a monster that doesn't understand its children are dead and keeps trying to feed them which causes a famine, the party deciding to steal from a politician who of course has connections with a worldwide criminal organization, and finally their home getting burned down as a consequence as well as the party being separated with no idea whether or not anyone except the protagonist survived... all in what i would call the chapter of the game. not to mention that the game loves to toss moral greys at you every now and then
      all of that happens in the first few hours. hell, the indiscriminate incineration happens in the literal first five minutes of the game! so why is the age rating 3+? things used to be *WILD*

    I lile the theory for why Zant is the one to ultimately kill Ganondorf. The theory is that Ganondorf is trying to tap into the remaining power he has, which is the power he stored within Zant. So, he's essentially calling out to the person he betrayed to give him power, and Zant gave Ganondorf a resounding "no."

    I'm guessing someone already mentioned it, and I'm only just getting to the city in the sky part of the video. But the reason the ball and chain is so powerful is because it is coded into the game as being a bomb explosion on impact. Because of this, it's actually even more useful than anticipated and can be used to burn cobwebs and destroy anything you need a bomb for. Just a fun fact about my favourite game of all time!

      Both because it gets misunderstood as "Just trying to redo Ocarina" and because we only get new mainline games every 6 years or so now which are open world and don't care nearly as much about story. Not that the BOTW/TOTK style is inherently bad, but I feel they should be a subtype of Zelda rather than being the norm for the past decade. We should get games in the old style again, without necessarily having to stop making games in the BOTW format. Echoes of Wisdom is a start, but it feels way more like a side story, a spinoff, like Tri Force Heroes.

    One of my favorite things about RT playing these games is that, no matter how silly he treats a majority of the game, he always lets the important, touching, and heartfelt moments have the impact they're meant to. A lot of creators talk through and make jokes during those moments because they seem to think that every single thing that happens needs to become a funny moment.
    Super Paper Mario is one of my favorite stories. Dan is one of the few creators I've seen that actually recognize it as the love story it tells you it is, and is one of the few people that I have watched their playthrough of it. It's sad to know this is the last video like this, at least for a while. Thank you for these videos though Dan, they are genuinely some of my favorite videos on RUclips, and I come back to them regularly.

      ​@@theevilduckling There's a "least items" speedrun category where the less items you get (even vital ones) the higher tier your speedrun is, even if it's slower than others with more items. Turns out because link moves a bit in cutscenes, you can leave a cutscene (like the one for getting a new kind of rupee) running for hours, and Link will phase through nearby walls. This of course lets you skip a lot of otherwise vital items

You can summon Wolf Link regardless, but he will have 3 hearts by default. I have never touched the Cave of Shadows in my life, but I play BotW with Wolf Link _all the time!_ In fact it's the only reason I bought the amiibo lol. (Though having him in ACNL was a nice too!)

      There’s actually a way to get him full 20 hearts in BOTW without beating cave of shadows! (I still haven’t beaten it) There’s checkpoints every so often in the cave and the first one is only like 5 floors in so it’s not too hard to get there undamaged and then you can save your progress to the amiibo and he’ll appear in BOTW with that many hearts. Just don’t save cave of shadows progress again if you wanna keep the full hearts wolf link

      @DavidVanSlyke-m2t It was a special era for Zelda games. You had both OoT and Majora's Mask return as Gamecube ports (albeit they were pretty laggy compared to the N64 but who cares they're still top tier games), and then you had the Wind Waker and Twilight Princess both being branching paths from the timeline splits of OoT/MM. I just find it funny that two of the best Zelda games have such drastic differences. Twilight has an almost realistic look to it, while Wind Waker is more cartoony and lighthearted (at least until the end when everyone left in Hyrule feckin drowns), but they're both THE two Gamecube era Zelda games and they're both 10/10 games.

    There is the one piece of fanart involving the Cave of Ordeals Great Fairy that has her revealed to be Navi from Ocarina of Time. It's really sweet, and ever since then I've always headcanoned that as being her too, because it just feels so fitting to have them reunite even across a different reincarnation. And adds another thematic tie with the Hero's Shade of fulfilling his regrets since he never got to reunite with her despite that being what caused the plot of Majora's Mask to happen.

    2:44:20 Another fun fact to add here, the Spirit of the Hero does not need to be related to former heroes...but this is the rare case where it is. The Hero of Time is the Grandpa (Or Great Grandpa I can't remember) of the Hero of Twilight here...and if you wanna know, the Grandma is Malon from Lon Lon Ranch in OoT. Fun facts for fun people!

    So glad to see twilight princess getting new playthroughs, it's my absolute favorite in the series. Botw and totk were great games,but there's something so special about this version of Hyrule. It's the only time that I've felt like I've gotten to know the real Link. Not the chosen hero, but the kind and quiet person underneath. It's more intimate than the other games imo, it brings you into his world.
    This was my first Zelda experience, and my first time playing a game with combat mechanics. My dad was so excited to show me this series, and thank God he was there bc I was far too young to get through it on my own. I'll never forget the impact that Midna made on me, I've still never felt as attached to a companion in a game as I was with her. I had no idea that games could be used as a storytelling device, allowing you to live in the story rather than just seeing it. It opened my mind to the possibilities of gaming, and I've been obsessed with story driven games ever since.
    I really hope that we get a switch port, or a port on the next console. I really think more people need to experience this game, especially Zelda fans. It's truly unique amongst the series.

    Twilight Princess is one of my favorite Zelda games; I think it’s in my top five. I grew up with bits of it alongside my brother, and I finally got to play through the full thing in 2022. It’s genuinely so much better than I could have thought, even with my nostalgic memories. This game is incredible, and I can only thank Daniel for spreading the good word of Twilight Princess.

Im very glad to see that Dan played this as his last "Lets Play All" series and equally sad that these styles of videos are going on hiatus for the foreseeable future.

    What RT didn't mention in this video about the Temple of Time, and what I don't think was obvious with the edits, is that the dungeon is a tower with the missing statue at the top. You ascend solving puzzles on the way, then backtrack down the whole tower but with the statue, changing up all the floors in the process. It's such a cool dungeon, and with it introducing darknuts as the miniboss that's just the cherry on top. Darknuts are my favourite Zelda enemy, and TP easily has the best darknuts in the franchise.

  • @Gonzogonzip
    @Gonzogonzip Месяц назад +14

    Man, I remember my older brother and I playing this waaaay back, I think we got it for Christmas together with the Wii. We got real stuck on the cat/fishing puzzle way in the beginning. It wasn't shown here in the vid (and not sure if they changed it) but IIRC you had to keep fishing to fill your inventory so that when you caught the next fish you'd drop it on the ground and that would attract the cat.
    I think I tried playing it a few times as I got a few years older but kept getting stuck on puzzles and stuff. I've played other Zelda games since, and while it's not a genre I've played extensively, It still has a special place in my heart and is to me one of the most archetypical video games out there, and generally fits a ton of very human narrative of myth, good vs evil, humble origins and great purpose, and how those same building blocks can be re-arranged again and again.
    My Wii is unfortunately bricked, so I can't really return and play it. But I did find one of my all-time favorite youtubers years ago when I went looking for a Let's Play of it, a guy named Olizandri, who plays through a solid variety of titles, some newer games, some older. He tends to play through entire series/franchises, and aims for 100% completion but without it being heavily edited or tedious to watch.
    It's nice to see it again though, kind of missed Twilight Princess, and the gloomy, slightly grittier take on the Zelda world. I think it's one of the exceedingly few Zelda games where Link is actually wearing proper armor as part of his tunic, a suit of chainmail underneath the green garb. I think they sorta returned to this look with one of the Hyrule Warriors games, but may be misremembering. Wish they'd do it again, the vibrancy of Breath of The Wild and Tears of The Kingdom was neat, but I think Twilight Princess did a much better job showing a desolate and 'post-apocalyptic' world.

TP Link got to say goodbye to the friend he traveled with. Sure, it was a bittersweet goodbye, but he got that closure. OoT Link’s soul is probably still out there, looking for his friend. That, beyond any other reason, is why I think the hero’s shade is around. He didn’t stay to pass on his teachings, despite what he says. His soul is stuck searching.
