I started to write a comment to the effect of "Leon speaks, ergo not a Link." however! its not that link doesn't speak, but that the camera usually cuts around him speaking. and besides in skyward sword link does speak directly a few times Link : nice hair. and Link : am I late?

I see the final ending as the fusion of Coral's collective consciousness with human minds fully merged with the mechs. No remaining human bodies but fully merged with the mechs as their literal bodies now. Thier more natural movements are due to being the mechs and not people piloting a mech by one degree of separation. Also while Raven was oitz the Coral rewrote the universe to better suit their needs.

MM3D is just a remaster, not a remake. It's built on the entire game code from the N64 version. All Grezzo did was update visuals, minor gameplay changes, and (poorly) patch out some glitches from the original code. Grezzo did not build a game from scratch when nearly all the coding was already done for them. People have known this for almost a decade, it's not a secret. Use proper terms if you're going bother with a video.

@@soulcalibrII if they significantly overhauled the visuals, made meaningful alterations to gameplay by adding touch screen and gyro, and altered key mechanics on boss fights, then it is definitely a remake. You don’t need to care for it for that word to apply.

Hyrule historia stated that termina was created BY the mask's power, and that the world is a reflection of Skull Kid's psyche. The mask originates from Hyrule, not Termina. When the evil in the mask was destroyed, termina ceased to exist shortly after Link returned to Hyrule

@@MantisFight2TurboEdition I disagree, though I can concede that the idea of defeating the mask results in the deletion of Termina as a whole should have been present IN the game rather than being explained 20 years later in what is essentially a franchise bible.

@@TheRealHoodedGeek I find the idea that Termina is just a fake place robs the story of it's value, since it's basically all dedicated to getting to know these people more intimately than they can ever know you. Hyrule Historia says a lot of whack stuff (the idea of a unified timeline is laughable) so I don't really care what it has to say.

The problem isn't that they were investing more into Bloodborne. The problem is that DS2 had a very troubled production. Basically, the game was originally meant to be a much more ambitious open world game. Think Elden Ring, but much earlier. Sadly, the project was too ambitious for the team and for the technology of the time. So the director of the game was fired and replaced by Tanimura, who then had ~6 months (IIRC) to use the assets already made, like models and recorded lines and areas, and to unite them into a cohesive game. They barely had time to finish the areas (look up Illusory Wall's video "How They Gutted The Gutter" to see how much bigger and more expansive the original plans were), much less to do any sort of quality control.

All of the stuff about the Stone Tower more or less lines up with my interpretation of where it came from and what it's supposed to be. However, another detail I noticed is regarding the effigy in the tower that resembles Majora's Mask when flipped upside down; it actually resembles the face of Majora's Wrath when you first enter the tower. As far as I know, this is the only bit of foreshadowing towards Majora's "true" form throughout the entire game, so I thought it might be worth mentioning when taking the origins of the tower and the mask into account. Another thing to note is that the portal to the desert dimension where Twinmold reside only opens up when the Stone Tower is flipped upside down. This could imply that the creators of the tower fell through the portal when the Goddesses flipped the tower, where they were condemned to forever wander the desert or were devoured by Twinmold, assuming they existed by that point. This also implies a connection between the creators of the Stone Tower and the Garo, as the Garo Master is found in the exact spot where the portal opens up upon entering the temple for the first time, suggesting that perhaps he could have found a way to escape from Twinmold's dimension. Just a thought.

I would actually argue that the Majora we see in the manga’s side story is more inspired by Indonesian lore than Chinese. The tale opens on candi bentar, or split gateway, which are definitive traits of temples, palaces, and cemeteries in Java, Bali and Lombok. I’d also say that Majora, both the creature and the mask, may incorporate elements of both Barong and Rangda, two mythical creatures of Balinese legend (not to say that creature Majora doesn’t also incorporate features of Chinese dragons or ‘lions’ too)

One thing I want to bring up. There is very little history involving Majora in Termina, despite how powerful Majora is there is no legends of “Demon king Majora” or “God Majora” (Whatever it is) in Termina. All we get is the old kingdom where Majora was used and that the guardians protected the people from Majora once in the past. This combined with the fact that at least one of the portals to Hyrule was made by Majora’s power could mean that Majora could come from another world that we have yet to see.

Love this theory. Makes much more sense that the Happy Mask Salesman found the mask in this shrine then somehow breaking into the temple when it takes so many individuals just to access it. That and King Ikana talks about somebody opening the temple recently, and it's implied that it was Skull Kid with the power of the mask. I would also like to add that I love that you mainly used N64 game play shots for this. It's a rarity now with any Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time videos.

fight a garo in mm and after that fight zant in tp the "boss room" of stone tower temple isn't a room, its a desert. lts not just like the one in twilight princess, it is the same one. every garo is one of the twili, but not every twili is a garo. for me it looks like garo are a special force of the twili. and all the twilight princess stuff, like this dark crystal thing you mentioned in your video tells me, that the twili have something to do with majoras mask itself. twinmold in mm, tons of moldorms in tp. even how they look is similar. the biggest difference is the size it is possible, that majoras mask was sealed at this place. nobody knows when the stone tower temple was made and who made it and who closed the door, we just know that the horror kid opened it and the war started.

I like to think that the mask was always sealed away in the room where Twinmold is. Seems fitting since Ikana fell when the doors to the tower where opened, and that could have been Majora's power leaking out and affecting the area. Twinmold could have even been a guard to protect the mask from being stolen or something (and maybe the garo stole the mask in the first place). There's also the fact that the entrance to Twinmold's room is located in the sky, or when the tower is flipped, located on the floor, as if Majora is sealed down below in an area you can only go to by flipping the tower. So there's the high/low thing like heaven/hell going on with the tower. And perhaps the mask is weak by itself and requires a host to become more active, thus why Majora could not just break out of its containment and had to use Skull Kid and possess him in order to do all the things that it did.
