Termina Field is the cross section of the 4 lands the giants created for each of the races. Swamp for Delu, Mountain for Gorons, Great Bay for Zoras, and Ikana for the "Elves" or Hylian-esque people. Since the Ikanan people basically killed each other, it's likely Clock Town became a settlement for the refugees of the war in Ikana. Clock Town is less of a dedicated settlement for them now, but more of a commerce guild. This is why it's the central hub for Termina and why there is a door pointing to each of the 4 lands. While it is shallow compared to Hyrule, I think the story implications for its existence is quite passable

I need a remake of both of this games

I think Ocarina of Time has better dungeons design, but Majoras Mask has a stronger music score. I also like how it really zooms in on specific area and Link actually gets to be part of a smaller story compared to being Hyrule Savior. I also disagree with Forest Temple Boss since that Azetx looking mofo scary looking. My favorite NPC in that game is the Deku princess since she is so feisty. Also compare to Majoras Mask I think Time has more random unhinged comments from NPC. Such as the guard in Kokoreki village when you are child showing him the degree from Zelda and slams you for not being able to read 😂. I also think I vibe more with Majora since story of trauma and life. We try to make the best decisions but sometimes our good work fall apart.

Thank you for this you’ve unlocked a part of my childhood that’s been forgotten, I grew up in a tough neighborhood and this was my escape from it . Trying to compose the same teams as ash , grinding for shiny Pokémon etc. GSC was by far the best gen they ever had . I grew up on first gen but steelix and lanturn are the goats 🏆

I got the gold dust first try

I will say this much the 3DS version improves upon the original in virtually every way (being able to swap the iron boots with a push of a touch screen certainly helps)

Pokemon blue 😊

This video made me realize a Goron and Zora racing game each could have been so much fun using similar mechnics to the transformations how they control and Mario Kart (maybe like spells instead of items)

ironically Fallout Newvegas is a more modern example of similar circumstances

Any true zelda fan of OOT would not recommend the remake its bloody awful!

Those old watercolor arts of the original pokemon (and from the next few generations) are so good. So much nostalgia packed into some small art. Also, things like the Mew under the truck rumor were incredible for how information spread pre-internet. Man, we used to live in the good old days...

For me I saw Majoras Mask before Oot so majora mask I have stronger feelings towards. I did enjoy this game though but the even darker vibes of majoras mask and twilight princess vibe with me as an adult

Gen 1s lack of hand holding & unique quirks make it better than the gen 3 remakes imo

I've watched so many retrospectives on MM and will never grow tired of it.

Playing Pokemon Blue Version In Japanese right now trying for the sp stat glitch of 183 on it when all is said and done I should be able to spawn up a missingno On The Blue and Red Japanese versions that I own

Gary and blue are two separate people just like how red and ash are not the same person

As someone that grew up in gen1 when it came out, I don't consider yellow the definitive version. Its more a spin off or a retelling. But def not the best version for the essence of what gen 1 was. Collecting all the pokemon was easier in red and blue. And gen 3 dropped that aspect of the games and they've never felt the same since. So I don't think gen 3 is the best way to experience what pokemon intended originally. I severely miss the catch them all goal. Its just unrealistic now a days.

lmfao do u like this game Austin?

Shout out ash ketchup

Exceptional review brother. That was really really good. Calming and informative

this was and will probably always be my favorite game('s (gold, silver and crystal)) and tv season of Pokémon

Awesome video on gem 1

I started with Gen 1 - blue version in 1998 shortly after it came out. I remember it being really hard to find the game at the store, it took weeks and many trips before I got lucky. Very thankful that my parents were supportive, especially my mother who took me to get Pokemon cards and other swag on a regular basis. I agree that Gen 3 is the best of the early releases, when I found FireRed in the late 2000's I was in love all over again. I personally feel all the zillions of new pokemon and releases watered down the original magic. I would be happy if they stopped creating new Pokemon beyond Gen 3 and focused on other things to keep the series fresh.

In the forest temple, when I was a kid, that hand that comes down and grabs you scared the shit out of me. I had already gotten the bow and went and beat every other temple. It took me months to build up the courage to finish the forest temple.

you dont need to leave the gibdo maze liar

5:33 when I was 12, I used to go to the observatory just to listen to the music while imagining being there with whatever girl I had a crush on lol😅

I appreciate your analysis of the game’s functional aspects, and the connection between the constraints on development and the gameplay. There’s definitely an aspect of “necessity is the mother of invention” but also, some things surely just did not get as much time as they deserved. I agree that Odolwa is totally boring and honestly I always thought that all the temple bosses were pretty boring compared to how sick Majora is. I also agree that Deku butler is peak. The mustache.. perfection

As far as I'm concerned it's the greatest genre of video game. The only thing it was lacking is a few quality of life tweaks and people would have taken to it more positively.

I think someone could be able to figure out that they had to use a fish to open up Jaja’s belly because it says RUTO was eaten and she’s a fish

Majora's Mask walked so New Vegas could run

This was the first zelda game I ever played. I didn’t play it on the Nintendo 64 version I played the 3ds version and loved it. It became me favorite vídeo game and created my love for the zelda franchise. Its not my favorite game anymore, now its majoras mas but still, I loved this game so much that everytime I play it I still can feel the magic. Sure, its a little outdated, but it you ask me, this game has truly passed the test of time to me.

8:17, no... "PP DRAIN"!!

Majora's Mask is the No1 Zelda for me.

I was 11 when this game came out. I did play the others on NES, but this game made me fall in love with Zelda, making it my most favorite thing in this world.

Pretty sure the mask seller wear a mask himself.

I love Barbuta

Amazing video!

24:34 time turn in the charm. PLEASE PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE GOD I AM BEGGING PLEASE.

Too flowery.

I'm 36. Please don't remind me of my mortality right out the gate like that.

Ended up sharing a lot more of your opinions this year than last! Zelda was fun but didn't make my top ranks, and Balatro and UFO 50 are both strong contenders for first place, although I haven't done sat down and actually ranked anything yet, so I'm not sure what would win. Additionally, I'm with you on wishing I could play Astro Bot for myself, but I have a friend who'll soon be streaming it, so I guess I'll settle for that ^^

When I was younger, I used to repeatedly rent the third Pokémon movie from Hollywood Video just to access the special features and play the "Johto Pokérap" on repeat.

I haven´t heard of UFO 50 anywhere else. Not that I am the most informed guy about every video game, but I read up about new releases pretty regulary. It was a nice surprise.

Zelda basically puked all over us in 2024. I've had enough of it till 2026 while it works on new mechanics ideas and layouts. Best Zelda related thing of 2024 was when I stayed in the Nintendo motel while the Nintendo employees celebrated children's day

Typhlosion my fave!!

Fairly Odd Parents ripped off Majora's Mask.

Criminally underrated video! My fav game of all time! Loved the way you went through everything! I’d love to see more Zelda retrospectives!

when you mention the wood temple frog I heard Steve instead of what I assume was "steed" and I'm sticking with it, froggies turtle mount is called Steve from now on

they failed so badly go check out crystal legacy thats what it should of been from the start thanks /

Hey man congrats on the video I really enjoyed it thoroughly especially the the chronological way of you explaining things as you go along. I agree that this game was innovative in its delf exploration and it was one of the perfect games in the late 90s That we could play as kids for weeks months and maybe even an entire year because time permitted it. But now is an adult playing through a game like this is sort of a slogggg because the mechanics sometimes don't work the water temple is atrocious the backtracking doesn't make sense the camera everything . Rhey really need to remake this game wirh quality of life improvements. With that said I won't take away from how monumentally historic impact this game had on video games and The legend of Zelda timeline it is still one of the best Zelda games. And for those of us that were introduced to Zelda late for me the breath of the wild and to the kingdom are great games but for the older fans this dungeon themed game is short of the Genesis of the franchise and it's nice to play it later in life for the first time and sort of see the retrospect people have on it that played in decades before me
