Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports).

"Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.


Posting Rules

  • Posts must be directly gaming-related. Thus, "generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission; similarly, reaction GIFs are also not appropriate as submissions.

  • Following Reddiquette is encouraged

  • No "general" URL shorteners (bitly, tinyurl, etc). Single-site URL shorteners (such as youtu.be or fav.me) are allowed.

  • No game or product giveaway of any kind

  • NSFW submissions and comments must be labeled

  • Spoilers can be posted using the following formatting:
    [X Kills Y](/spoiler)
    Result: X Kills Y.

  • To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific game/topic, use the alternate formatting:
    [Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
    Result:
    Player 1 wins

  • Report posts containing spoilers not using the above method

  • Don't post users' personal information.

[–]ninjaflashlight 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Actually, I have a habit of treating every day like a day from Majora's Mask. Yes, I know I can't travel back three days to change my actions, but that just makes it more exciting. In the three days you had in Majora's Mask, so much was going on in everyone's lives. It was more then anyone could keep track of in their own heads, we needed the Bombers Notebook to help us out.

But imagine if you had to play Majora's Mask and you COULDN'T go back in time. Who would you help? Who would you spend your time with? Would you save Romani and Cremia's ranch from aliens? Would you convince the postman that life doesn't have to be lived on a clock, and freedom is more important then being stuck with the same boring job every day? Would you make sure that Anju and Kafei could meet in the end and spend their last few hours together?

That's exactly how I live life every day.

[–]cephas_rock 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The problem with living your life like that every day is that you fail to make investments for anything beyond 3 days from now. If Link thought that way, he would have never been able to leave Clock Town at all, let alone retrieve the Sun Mask to help unite Anju and Kafei.

[–]Delta_dark 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's fun to try to do the whole couple's mask quest combined with helping the postman, the shop keeper, Romani's ranch, and the mayor all in one go. Also kind of difficult to do without cheating, but not impossible.

It's because of the dissonant bass notes. Yeah, without good speakers you can only detect the cheery bits, but once you can remotely detect the bass, the eeriness kicks in, especially since those notes are the emotional core of a song. Dissonant notes add a bittersweet vibe to things and I love them for that.

Five ways in which Link's Awakening is better than LTTP:

  • Characters. Link's Awakening had numerous memorable characters, and many memorable moments with those characters. LTTP, by comparison, was a character desert.

  • Story. Link's Awakening has one of the best Zelda stories ever, behind perhaps Wind Waker and Majora's Mask. LTTP forgets about its story halfway through the game, turning into a disappointing dungeon grind.

  • Dungeons. Link's Awakening dungeons were each extremely unique but very well-crafted. The game was jam-packed with hundreds of really cool puzzles. LTTP had MANY dud-dungeons that were little more than mazes.

  • Graphics. Link's Awakening turned 4 shades of gray into a gorgeous fantasy world. Each sprite is like a miniature masterpiece, each land feels different, and yet everything feels cohesive. LTTP, on the other hand, is a disappointing hybrid of graphics that feel like Zelda with graphics that feel like they're from Super Metroid. Several bosses that were just aliens. Horrible art direction in the dark world.

  • Music composition. Link's Awakening was a symphony of awesome. The pre-sword music. The cool take on the Zelda overworld theme. The Tal-Tal Heights theme. The unique scores for EACH dungeon. The Ballad of the fuckin Wind Fish. LTTP's dungeon music was abysmal and many scores were recycled.

Link's Awakening is often overlooked, but it's the best Zelda game in my view, and it should be considered a guide and pillar for good game design of any kind. From the dungeons, to the characters, to the item sequences, puzzles and secrets, Link's Awakening was almost perfectly designed.

People that say that Majora's Mask was a bad game need to hear this alongside explanation of what made it awesome. It is so amazing how they took this cheerful song and altered it as it gets closer to the end, so that it becomes more and more creepy. So wonderfully macabre.

I've never heard anyone say MM was a bad game. I've heard a few claim it wasn't as good as some of the others in the series, but never claim it was a bad game.

[–]nauree 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

When MM first came out I heard that it was a bad game from a lot of sources.

[–]ReflexMan 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It seems to be quite divided. From what I have heard, most people either think it was the best Zelda game that has come out (I would have to agree. If not, it is right up near the top), or the worst. Usually, the people that think it is the worst cite its difference from the rest, how it doesn't feel like it "fits." In my opinion, that is what makes it great. You have this game which takes the guise of a happy-go-lucky video game, but inside you find a melancholy spirit at which you just have to look closer to see all of the wonderful subtleties. I would hazard a guess that people who dislike Majora's Mask probably played straight through it, without experiencing any side quests, and without taking the time to stop and chat with various NPCs at differing points in the 3-day cycle. Lots of subtle things to see.

[–]rockerode 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I really can't understand why anyone wouldn't like it. It was definitely my #1 favorite Zelda game thus far. I loved the dark nature of it, plus the freedom to go anywhere you want and be various creatures within the Zelda world. It was just a great freeing feeling. And there were "alternate" endings in a sense.

DS3 tool lets you set up the bluetooth stuff, you need to sync it with a USB cable but once you've got that done you can just play with the controller. It's a pretty great tool.

That game was downright one of the darkest games I've ever played. Guru-guru, the Kafei-Anju questline, Skull Kid, the four Giants, the Zoras... all of those people suffering...

I feel like, in 10 or 20 years when they completely re-make OoT and MM (here's hoping), there's more than enough material to create possibly one of the darkest and most passionate games in history.

Best analysis EVER.

It's dangerous to go alone, take this upvote.

/srsface

Majora's Mask is one of those games I would call "coming of age." There's this progression of titles that I think kids should have to play to understand how the world should work.

Start off with Nintendo: Some basic stuff like Banjo-Kazooie, Ocarina of Time, Star Fox and Super Smash Bros. Games that give kids a variety and let them just have fun.

Then start messing with what they consider fun. Throw in games like Goldeneye, Twilight Princess, Portal, and the original Assassin's Creed. Again, branch out their experiences, but add a touch of seriousness to it. Make the kids feel like what they're doing has a purpose and clear cause-effect to it (even if it is linear).

Then get into the coming-of-age games. Games that take what they think they know and spin it on a top for a few rounds. Majora's Mask fits here, along with the Myst series, Professor Layton and Final Fantasy. Give them games that, again, are more advanced and branching, but really make them think and mess with them.

Final stage: The gut-wrenchers. The games that make you "feel" the characters for the first time. Professor Layton and the Unwound Future (definitely), Half-Life 2, Portal 2, Oblivion, God of War, Assassin's Creed 2 (from first game up to what looks like Revelations) and Starcraft/Command&Conquer/Call of Duty (generally fighting/strategy games not including the more modern iterations of CoD). These games should push what you feel and how much you experience.

Once your child has gone through all of these stages, I generally consider them smart enough to be able to go into society, see an event take place, and actually have an opinion when their parents ask them about their day. Especially growing up, seeing other kids follow a similar pattern, it was really cool to have philosophical discussions with pre-teens that actually pretty-well understood what they were saying.

Woah...

I have such amazing memories of the Zelda games. Truly unique. I'm disappointed so many people considered the graphics of Wind Waker to be too childish. I thought it was absolutely brilliant. I know what I'm doing this summer.

This is totally genius. I think it would be worth it to have to world end if the clock town music played all three days before it.

My roommate just bought Twilight Princess, I have the GameCube version of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, and he has Link to the Past. As soon as he finished L.A. Noire, I'm claiming the TV for mine and going on a Zelda binge.

[–]ButteryChrisont 14 points15 points ago

Upvoted because Majora's Mask is one of the best and most underrated games ever and anything having to do with it is amazing.

Truly a work of art and worthy successor to Ocarina Of Time. So different, so advanced (for it's time), so creepy, so awesome.

Termina is still one of the most engrossing videogame world ever. So much character can be created when everything is on a 3 day loop.

[–]rockerode 1 point2 points ago

and all the various ways you can end the game, and take various paths that aren't necessarily required but are still much more flushed out than Ocarina of time. The only one with Ocarina I can think of is getting that Great Sword crafted. With MM, you have so much more.

MM was a great game, truly underrated. My only gripe with it was when you would use the owl save feature and you would forget to save correctly the next time and you'd lose a whole bunch of progress.

You don't have to say "supposedly". Every single person here will understand that you're not being serious. Qualifying your remark like that ruins the humor.

Nope, that's the Mayan calendar ending and restarting again, misinterpreted into the world ending. Has no Christian connotations.

[–]brainstorm42 41 points42 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Dear Everyone: Please note that, since a bunch of spaniards came without notice and conquered our land, killing thousands in the process, we did not have enough time to complete the calendar. We are sorry for any inconvenience Sincerely; The Mayans

[–]oboewan42 20 points21 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's just a date rollover. Basically Mayan Y2K. Except that it'll have even less impact, because nobody uses MayaOS anymore, we've upgraded to better systems. (It's kind of hard to get tech support from someone who's been dead for centuries.)

You tell that to the 7-metre wide wheel of carved stone I have sitting in my backyard. It's going to be a bitch to re-calibrate that thing.

[–]psychosomaticism 2 points3 points ago

They released an 8-metre version not too long ago, fixes a lot of problems with world ending and a few minor GUI tweaks.

[–]vinfx 5 points6 points ago

Those stone motherboards were a bitch to upgrade. Oh.. and peripheals? All proprietary with custom carved mount points. Royal pain in the ass.

[–]IterativeLoop 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

(update)

Dear Everyone: Due to the inconvenience caused by the Spaniards, we are attempting to roll back, quite literally, the current calendar to the previous month. However, due to worsening conditions and interruptions, including but not limited to disease, invading Spaniards, and the lack of proper materials, we will be delayed in providing a swift and prompt response to this problem.

Sincerely, The Mayans

I keep hearing a lot about this end of the world. Even got a tract while I was at work. I just want to say never to listen to these things. I Thess. 5:2-3 (If you believe in the Bible at all) guarantees that Jesus will not return when we expect him to. 2For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 3While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape.

It says Jesus will return when we least expect it, not when everyone is looking for it.

There are a bunch of fundamentalists claiming that they've worked out from the Bible that the Rapture is going to be on May 21st.

The OP picture is from Majora's Mask, which takes place in the last three days before the moon destroys the world Link is in, except that you can go back to the beginning of the 3 days and live them over and over again by playing the Song of Time.

It's weird, I just showed up in Jerusalem on a little vacation and apparently it's the only city that will be spared.
