Since I've no danger of an annoying fairy wrecking my shit, I think it's time to go onto the direct sequel to Ocarina of Time. The game opens with Link looking through the lost woods trying to find Navi, yeah good luck with that one. Anyway, Link is knocked out and robbed by the skull kid wearing Majora's mask, a mask of pure evil.
The skull kid turns Link into a deku and the race is on to become human again before 3 days end by getting back your precious ocarina, why 3 days, well because of the motherfucking moon!
Skull Kid be bringing down the fucking moon bitches and the moon has a face.
Anyway the only way to stop the moon is to rescue the four giants from their imprisonment but you can't possibly do that in 3 days, so you have to travel back in time with the song of time on your ocarina, especially since one day is 24 minutes, unless you played the song of time inverted then it's 48 and yes the game tells you this if you pay attention to the wacky scarecrow.
Who can dance with you to skip time half a day or you play the song of time doubling each note. Anyway the main focus of the game is masks. The three core masks are transformation masks, one to turn you into a deku who can hop on water, fly using certain plants and shoot fucking bubbles!
Anywho we also have Goron Link who curls into a ball which drains magic as spikes at a high enough speed, punch super hard and create small quakes by leaping in a ball, smashing buttons like the megaton hammer...
and Zora Link who can swim in the water without having to breathe and swims like well a fish, use magic to create an electrical field around the zora and shoot out it's fins with boomerangs. Zora Link fights with kung fu kicks and punches.
And each mask has it's own instrument with it's own effects, the deku with bagpipes, the goron with drums and the zora with a fucking electric guitar!
There are other masks with their own effects that don't result in transformation such as:
The Blast mask, a bomb on your face with infinite ammo at the cost of health... or you can exploit a glitch that makes you take no damage by using your shield. We also have the Keaton mask to see the fox spirits at night to take their quiz.
Oh so not funny. We also have...
The bunny hood, the best mask in the game, why you run at super speed bitches!
There is more masks but I won't spoil them. Anyway... the game has less dungeons than Ocarina with only four dungeons, one swamp, one ice, one water and one that's fucked up and I won't spoil it's awesomeness with a mechanic that is fucking genius!
And the game doesn't hand out a more powerful sword like Ocarina does, you have the Kokiri Sword for the entire game, but you can upgrade it but after 100 uses it reverts to normal or if you time travel, you can make it permanent but it involves a tricky sidequest that cannot be done until half way through the game.
There are however lots of pieces of hearts that you have to do various sidequests for, the most infamous revolving around 2 lovers which you can end badly by giving a love note to a talking hand in a toilet.
You're gonna make me say it.
The downside is that the masks replace so many items that to fill up space, there are 3 trade item gaps which you never fill and space for six empty bottles and other items which you use early in the game and then not really again as well as another sword that you have to do something in a dungeon for.
What that thing is by the way is gather 15 fairies and take them back to the fairy fountain to restore the great fairy who can give you the spin attack, more magic, reduced damage and the great fairy sword and to do this you need to wear a mask.
So basically bar a few items, these are useless compared to the masks. Now there is a little theory about the game that Termina is not a parallel world but Link's mind coming to terms with dying because of this.
The hero's shade, the zombified spirit of Ocarina's hero who had become a stalfos after getting lost in the lost woods. Though that's the theory as without Navi he got lost and died, but here's the flaw in that theory, wouldn't Link be a stalchild, I mean the spirit is clearly an adult, but Link is a kid here.
So why would a kid dying leave a adult's corpse, hmm... theory shit on. But seriously this game is awesome and while not as good as Ocarina it is still a class act and the only people who speak ill about the game, say it about the difficulty and all I can say is fucking pussies, this game is far from the hardest ever you fucking pussies! I bet you're wondering why there's no flashy gif for funnies here, well you try googling Fucking pussies. But anyway this game has more to do with Time Travel than Ocarina did and the Ocarina is more useful here than there. Wait a minute Time Travel, Celebi, you have a job to do.
Celebi, open a time portal to 1999 Kanto, I know what I have to do.
