Had just enough money to get all the Triforce maps translated at once. I think I had 12 Rupees left out of ~2800(I had one translated already).

Alright. Just wanted to make sure you weren't nostalgia-ing over it.

My first was the original. Ah, the days... bad German translation... using guidemaps... tearing my hair out over the 4 Blue Darknut room...

Link to the past.   With zelda 2 as a close second.   Would probably be first If I could even find the third temple, let alone beat the game.

My first Zelda game was OoT, and I loved it to bits. I still enjoy watching speedruns of it.

On topic: Just beat Mom for the first time. Got a possibly-OP combination of a pickup which made explosions heal me and a trinket which allowed me to explode whenever I wanted. Basically infinite hearts, infinite coins from blood banks, I could check all the walls for secret doors, etc.

First Zelda for me was the original. I also played link to the past, but my favorite was of course OoT, followed by Majora's Mask

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

My first Zelda was... the first Zelda. :P I really like it, but Ocarina of Time is still my favorite to just casually play. OoT and Majora's Mask are tied for best storytelling in my hierarchy.

Wind Waker... ehhh... I could really take it or leave it. It looks pretty and some of the dungeons are pretty neat, but I think it gets overrated just for the novelty of the graphic style. The sailing was dull and didn't have enough substance to make up for taking the focus away from dungeon crawling, not to mention the finnicky boat combat.

What really irritates me is that Twilight Princess still gets a lot of unfair backlash just because it went in a different direction after WW. We've got four games in WW's visual style (counting Four Swords Adventures and Minish Cap), an HD remake and Toon Link in Smash, but TP is probably dead for at least a few more years.

Twilight Princess was always my favorite for casual play. The graphics are just the coolest in the series, if you ask me, and the dungeons were pretty fun. Only thing that bothered me was that two or three of the dungeon items never get used again.

I swear, Tingle is more of a villain than Ganon is.
I have a sudden craving to see the opening sequence of that game again, but with all the pictures of Ganon replaced with pictures of Tingle.

It would make more sense. Take a good look a Tingle Tower, the images carved on it. Then look at the spinning thing on top. That thing is being spun by two unfortunate guys that Tingle enslaved - and Tingle claims it's "fairy magic" moving it(despite standing next to the two slaves as he says it).

Maybe he should hook up with the creepy Queen Fairy who lives literally on the next island over. She's some serious nightmare fuel right there. Despite the creepy child-like appearance(that none of the Great Fairies have), she starts hitting on Link during their conversation, then she finishes the conversation with "the fairies of this fountain will ease your weariness. Use them as you will." Emphasis mine since that phrase is usually associated with rape, meaning the Queen Fairy just suggested that you rape her underlings - made worse since this is the first Zelda game(if I recall) where you can visibly see the fairies' reaction to being put in a bottle(they don't like it).

The look your (sentient) boat gives you when the Queen Fairy starts coming on to you is hilarious, like he's trying to say "No, don't even think about it, Link".

For some reason I cannot stop laughing at that image.


As for my most recent ownage, after several years of fending increasingly more dangerous attacks by the Drills, I noticed them closing the technology gap. Although they have a penalty to research, they also controlled 2/3 of the galaxy(I held the rest), and probably had more than enough research worlds. Certainly, they had the means to outproduce my defenses.

However, I was starting get some really good Frigates ready. After they retreated from the latest attack, I sent my ships(which are about 5 times faster than theirs) to cut off their retreat. This resulted in dozens of "battles" against individual ships. Most were destroyed while they fled further back. Only one or two made it away unscathed, though I eventually did run out of missiles so more of them survived. Even so, it broke their offensive capability. For the first time in the war, I went on the offense.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

I beat the Summoner without ever even seeing him. He was just barely off-screen and I was shooting at some enemies that happened to be in the same general direction. I must have nailed him when I was spamming Multi Shot, because my quest log updated while I was just collecting loot with "Talk to people in town for more information". When I did that, Cain said something about me killing the Summoner. Sure enough, when I went over there, there were a few dead enemies and some loot but no Summoner :o

I don't think you ever use the Slingshot. Most enemies are immune to it, and I can't recall using it for any puzzles.
