[Let's Play!] Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past - Page 5

Guess who just slayed the evil wizard and then Ganon...

Oh yeah that's right!

Link to the Past completed!

So now I'm up to a total of 3 Zelda games finished!

I don't know if "Total Games Played" is code for like how many times you died, but I have 53.

As have I! I see my goal of finishing before the school semester starts has been met! I wish luck to everyone else, and I'll be posting a Flickr album of some of my accomplishments which I have way too many of since I have 200+ pictures of screen caps.

I also think I'll be getting a go at some other Zelda games. I'm using virtualnes.com to play Zelda 2, which I've currently completed two palaces, Oracle of Seasons which I left about a little more than halfway completed, and Majora's Mask on the VC, which I've never finished and I'm at the entrance to Woodlawn.

I won't be doing Let's Play! for these though.

Still trying to get the big key for the first crystal!

RAWR!

Today I played for a lil bit.....and then i had a power outage....and I didnt save....im pissed.... I'll still play for an hour or 2 now though, dunno if ill take pictures this time around.

Come on, I enjoy your pics as well as your little commentary.

Yes BaB, you died 53 times. How in the world did you do that? Even when I was 12 years old and I played it for the first time, I only died 8 times or so. Nowadays I don't save it when I die (which is pretty rare anyway... once or twice per game?).

Sheesh. If I died 88 times then I really must have sucked. But Earl also got advice from me along the way.

I played, sorry BaB, no pics this time cus i was doing things i had already done.... wish I did, cus i did some fancy crap like, I got that wand where you have to go through spikes without the invisible cape thingie (used a fairy bottle), then i got the invisible cape thingie without the glove to lift the stones (with clever dark world hopping).

HATED that 3rd crystal dungeon, took me forever to figure out to....wait nvm its a spoiler, what's even worse since i was on a roll i went and got 4th crystal and then straight for 5th, didnt look for hearts or nothing in between, i make it to the boss for the 5th crystal and im like HA! ill shoot fire at you bozo!.... I kind of ran out of magic and.... yeah had to save and quit....

Is the 3rd crystal the one in which you have to keep going outside and use different exits/entrances and stuff to get through the entire dungeon?

That confused the hell out of me, and had to use a guide to eventually find the 3rd entrance/exit, but even then it still was a pain in the arse.

And which was the 5th boss? Was it the moth because you can fight him with your sword or whatever.

It was funny, I saved without magic once, and had to go to a dungeon where needed a medallion... let me tell you, a lot of the enemies in the overworld do not drop magic powder for you to use.

Zen · 08-21-2009, 12:57 AM

that is indeed the 3rd crystal, I am not going to gamefaqs with this game cus I want to play it as I did back in the day where I didnt even have internet, so Ive been calling friends if i need help and they are mostly like "shit son i dont remember that!".

The boss Im on is the Ice cubicle crap fellow.....

Zen · 08-23-2009, 02:05 AM

And I hate double posting but I want to bump this cus I'm done.

Sorry for the picture less finale, got lazy when it came to it, but I pretty much realized I could get the ice of that bastard with one single bombos spell as opposed to 8 freaking fire rod hits, managed to get my half magic use upgrade shortly after, golden sword upgrade and whatnot. I pretty much breezed through the rest of the game afterwards with only turtle rock being a bit of a hassle.

Ganon's tower was a joke I wandered around randomly and next thing i know im fighting aghanim, then I chase after Ganon cus he runs like a pussy, laid the smackdown.... well... I actually fell into the pit once and had to start over, but then I definitelly owned him.

Completed all items, did not get all heart pieces though as I was missing one heart on the meter.

Total games played 18. You guys suck :P

BreakABone · 08-23-2009, 02:57 AM

Shut your whore mouth, but congrats.

Also, I fell while fighting Ganon as well. And it was a pain in the ass because you had to get back to him, and do the fight again.

Since I wasted some of my potions, I went wild with attacking him and hopinh he didn't kill me first.

magus113 · 08-23-2009, 11:51 AM

I had fallen once and died against Ganon, but then once I got the hang of it, it was a breeze.

I think that's a staple with Zelda games. Ridiculous bosses (sometimes) but the final battle is a cakewalk.

Angrist · 08-24-2009, 11:27 AM

At least in the latest Zeldas they're consistent. ALL the bosses are way too easy.
