Genuinely glad to hear that! Hope you are excited for DS2!

@ I can’t wait, It took me 3 years to get the courage to play it but once I did I was in so much disbelief at how good it actually was

DAMN. Tell us how you really feel!! In all seriousness, I get it. This game is such an enigma to me. Either you LOVE IT or it was not for you. No in between.

There are additional mechanics, but I would say the early game will pretty much sum it up. It doesn’t change as much as I would have liked.

I definitely don’t agree. Not everything has to fit under the same bucket either. Changes within in a genre are pretty normal. Imagine, if you have to follow every trope in a genre? Then you would be playing the same game. Maybe we don’t have low standards, maybe we just allow ourselves to dive into different ideas and not project what we want/ or what we have experienced before, to something new.

​@@dualshooter2461 There is an inbetween option between following EVERY single trope from a genre and following NONE of those tropes. Evil Within follows NONE of the survival horror tropes. It is simply not a survival horror game and is one of the reasons why it is not rated well among fans. It had shady, misleading marketing before it released. Shinji Mikami coming out and talking about how he is going back to the real survival horror roots, how he is tired of all the action elements bla bla bla, while bringing out the most on-rails, scripted action-packed horror game of all time, lacking any of the exploration, puzzle solving, backtracking, complex level design or any of the staple survival horror mechanics while adding RPG junk like levelling up your character. You are supposed to be underpowered in survival horror, not becoming an overpowered action hero upgrading your stats. You are supposed to AVOID killing enemies whenever possible, not get rewarded for killing them with shiny loot every time. This game is not survival horror and is so rightly criticised for acting like it is one. As an action adventure game, it is decent if you are into that, and a horror setting for that genre is pretty unique. NOT survival horror though. This game has about 10x more things in common with Uncharted or God of War than Resident Evil 2 or Silent Hill 2, the PEAK games of survival horror. You take a game like RE2 and then you take out literally EVERYTHING that made it good and made it what it is and then pretend that it's still the same kind of game is either stupid or misleading.

Yeah, a lot of people have said this, but you kinda know if it’s for you. Give it another shot, but don’t feel bad if it’s not for you.

Thank you for the kind words. She really was ❤️

I love that people love this game so much. I hope DS2 works a bit more for me.

Yeah, Sekiro was definitely the hardest.

That is a really good point. Seems like it would hurt developers.

Thank you ❤️

I can definitely see why! Looking forward to Majora's. People are giving it crazy high praise.

GOATED

You enjoyed DS2 more than Elden Ring!? 🤔

@ wellllll Elden Ring is more recent…. I haven’t played DS2 in a couple years, so mostly I just get more nostalgic for DS2 than the others. 😂. But I’m not even finished with Elden Rings DLC, It’s kind of exhausting!

WHAT. Maybe if it was your first one?!

@@dualshooter2461 1000 hours in 6 months I bought the ds trilogy this year And ds2 is best game its peak gaming literaly the best game ever made Ds1 i guess but demons souls is better her en theere Ds3 0 \ 10 absolute tr4sh

@ I loved all them…but I did enjoy 3 a lot as well. For me: 1. Dark Souls 2.Dark Souls 3 3.Dark Souls 2

@@dualshooter2461 you need to spend more. Time with ds2 i wish both ds2 And ds3 played more. Like a bloodborne bcs the gameplay is basicaly same And by some miracle even tho its not that polished ds2 shines the most As a game the more you play the better it gets I like ds3 gameplay but i just dont. Like that game solo i think some. Bosses are better in coop but overall I dont like ds3 its so boring and uninspired ds1 2 demons souls bloodborne is masterpiece You need atleast 5 playthroughs in ds2 to truly appreciate the game once they make. Next gen version of ds2 everyone will realize whats up And mainly you have to play the dlc ds2 is just great if they ever remake it or just make new game simmiliar to it trying to exploze the rpg mechanics but better this time i dont. Like the ds3 ER style its weird halfbaked to me i like ds2 bcs it is halfbaked in technology but not in gameplay And level deisgn And encoumter design And gameplay variety its quite Wild bcs the game is garbage but at the same time its the best game ever And thats why its best souls peak

@@dualshooter2461 ds3 is just so weird thaz even the good things in ds3 get lost in the pile of trash i wish i never played ds3 its so trash

I’ve been seeing both sides in the comments….should I do original or 3DS. 🤔

Original but use the recompiled version on pc. It is gorgeous but is still the Original. Nerrel has a video on it.​@dualshooter2461

Absolutely madness. Didn’t realize how crazy that was till everyone started roasting me on it lol

I don’t think it’s overrated, but definitely not perfect.

lol I remember my first time playing dark souls. Walking around corners with my shield up, not knowing what to expect. Now I roll around like crazy lol

For sure! That is definitely next. Trying to see if I can get my hands on a 3DS XL.

Have had a couple recommendations to play the 3DS version. I might have to get my hands on one to play it. I’m hype for majoras

water temple still sucks ass though

LOL. I thought it was so weird I didn’t have it yet. You can imagine how it felt to get it afterwards realizing I just ran past the dude. I knew I could have saved him, but I was just lazy 😂

For the first RD right?!

@dualshooter2461 yes!

Is the switch version terrible?!

I appreciate your honest take. at first it was an adjustment, but after an hour it didn’t bother me at all.

The Magic seems good. I was a bonk build lol so I just smacked everything really hard. Pyromancy seemed OP

I hope so! Let us know how your experience goes!!

I’m excited for Majora’s. Everyone got me hype now from the comments!! Appreciate the kind words. Out of curiosity, what is your fave Zelda?

Appreciate that 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Facts.

Hmmm what do you mean? What type of art style you have in mind that would go well with Palworld.

Appreciate that. Was trying to be as fair and unbiased as possible. That way, whatever my opinion was, it had some weight to it. The reality is that the game is incredible. I’ve had a couple people in the comments say to play majoras. I will definitely play majoras next!! Almost done with silent hill 2, but majoras is upcoming.

@@dualshooter2461 you won't regret it, I promise! Once you figure out the 3-day cycle (Song of Inverted Time is your friend), it is a joy to play. BTW, there are remakes of OoT/Majora on the 3DS, but I strongly advise playing the original N64 version of Majora if you're able. Sometimes "new" doesn't always mean "improved".

@@Lady.Luthien you got me excited to play it now! Was gonna wait a while before playing it, but now it’s gotta be next.

@@dualshooter2461 can't wait for the video! 🤗

LOL I’m sick bro. Playing all these hard games has made me so stubborn

@@dualshooter2461 I know right? I didn't even know it was possible to beat without it haha

I hear a lot of these PC ports have some Issues. Sorry to hear that :/. I only played on PS5.

Yeah, I wasn’t too worried about hearts. Wasn’t too bad difficulty wise. I do like the challenge for sure 👀

Seems like you got to that part of the video, but I didn’t have it!! lol. Remember, first time!

I would love a sequel. Hopefully one day!!

Yeah, I believe the letter doesn’t say a fish specifically, but does say she fed him and disappeared. There are little clues, but my whole thing is parts of the game really hold your hand and others just kinda let you figure it out. I respect it, but for a first timer I would miss things. Like the water tunic, but that’s on me cause I just was too lazy to get more blue fire LOL

For sure, and I intentionally didn’t look stuff up when completing the game. Some have brought this same concept up in the comments, and I had this same thing with the pokemon games(in terms of sharing knowledge, rumors, etc). I don’t hold it against the game too harshly( via the perfect score) and I was easy on it because I love the souls games. Which can be super obscure in that respect and wouldn’t be fair to like it on one series and hate it on another. When very clearly Zelda has inspired that way of game design in some capacity. I think mainly my thought process of bringing it up, is that for the most part, the game spells things out to us, where to go , and what to do. Then there are a handful of moments that are not explicitly mentioned that really stand out due to the usual guidance the game provides. I agree with you 100% however.

@@dualshooter2461 Yeah I get that, I was saying it more for clarity sake than as a dig as well if that makes sense. In an alternate timeline where this game released in 2024, those aspects would drop it to a 5/10 I'm sure, but as I say, that was pretty much expected. Much like how you don't fault Contra because you die every 10 seconds. Was optimized for the arcade, that's how it works! One more thing worth mentioning is the story. While I ain't gonna argue Zelda is formulaic and pretty simple, I do think OoT gets bonus points because it's THE Ganondorf. Twilight Princess Ganondorf is this one. Even Breath of the Wild. It's the SAME DUDE. There's always some chicanery afoot. He was sealed or in a time-stopped dimension or.. whatever. Point is Ocarina of Time Ganondorf is THE GANONDORF and I think that's so awesome.

@@caistigh2062I need to get into the timeline and lore of Zelda. I plan to beat majoras, skyward, and twilight again soon. This game gave me the Zelda bug!!!

😂 can’t believe I watched the video a couple times before uploading and still missed that LOL.

Wow. Okay majoras mask is up next for me. Gonna play and review that. It’s getting a bunch of love here. I LOVE TWILIGHT PRINCESS. Also, no windwaker?! 🫨

@@dualshooter2461 Most people find my list controversial simply because I don’t have Wind Waker. Although I loved playing it as a kid, I don’t find much enjoyment going back and replaying it nowadays. The ending is really good but overall it’s not my favorite Zelda game. The sailing puts me to sleep every time lol And this might be an extremely hot take but I actually prefer Phantom Hourglass over Wind Waker. Still doesn’t make my top 10 though.

@@ShadowWizard224 I think it’s a very solid list. I think seeing how much people love majoras is surprising for sure. Yet to play it, but it sounds so different from traditional Zelda which is why I’ll surprised. Looking forward to it.

@@ShadowWizard224 also! No skyward sword?! I’ve yet to play it as well, but you weren’t a fan?

@@dualshooter2461 I have Skyward Sword #11 on my list. Just missed the top 10 for me. The game has beautiful music and a fantastic story. However, I do have a lot of problems with it which is why I have it so low out of the top 10. I grew up playing the original wii version and I wasn’t a huge fan of the controls. The overworld and travel mechanic is probably the worst in the entire series. And it has a lot of padding and repetitiveness throughout the game that made it extremely dull for me as I progressed. I understand that the HD version fixed a lot of things but that only came out a few years ago which means for 10 years straight if you wanted to play SS you had to play the wii version which was extremely controversial and divided up fans which is why Breath of the Wild(the next zelda game) became so different. I have a lot of opinions about skyward sword but I’ll just say that it has extreme highs but very extreme lows as well. I definitely recommend that you give it a chance because who knows you might like it. But it wasn’t my personal favorite. Thank you for all the thoughts by the way. I know these lists are subjective but it’s good to hear other peoples thoughts as well.

NOOOO. I can’t believe I messed that up. My head said Bongo Bongo, but my heart was unga unga 😂😂😂😂

Hmm I don’t recall one saying “feed jabu a fish”? I do recall talking to everyone and not seeing that, but again, could be wrong. Most I remember is someone stating that the daughter would feed him. Also, not sure if everyone talks to every NPC. I definitely don’t in most video games. LOL. Lastly, your kid sounds smart!

@@dualshooter2461 It's the Zora in Zora's Domain near the tunnel that leads to Lake Hylia. He is under water. You have to approach the tunnel to make him appear. Well I played the german version. So Iam nor sure if it was changed. But it's true Princess Ruto is feeding Lord Jabu Jabu...so maybe that was also a hint to give him food...and the only real food source are bugs or fish. It is actually nice. The game wants you to pay attention to all dialogues. Oh I meant that I was 10 when I figured out to feed Lord Jabu Jabu xD SOrry English is not my native tounge

My heart dropped when I got it LOL. I was like okay, that makes more sense. Honestly, that one is 100% on me. Because you see him trapped, and you learn about the blue fire at the ice cavern. For some reason I thought he would be released after the ice cavern. I was just too lazy to go back more blue fire in a bottle. I’m a little proud I did it without though 😏

​@@dualshooter2461 hehe yeah, it's a feat! Still though, people would usually exit the Ice Cavern without any blue fire left, and the thought of going half way into a mini dungeon you already finished just to get that fire isn't obvious. But then again, figuring out that you should bomb a rolling goron to get the fire tunic isn't obvious either. In modern games there would probably be an arrow pointing you directly at where you should go next (looking at you, Elder Scrolls post Morrowind). This, however, is a game from 3D gaming's infancy, and a lot was learned for future generations of adventure games.

Heck yeah! Best of luck! You got this.

DAMN.

The idea of it's fun, but it really did age like milk

I think I will! I’m a bit intimidated by the 3 day cycle, but once I beat silent hill 2 remake that is next. Is it your fave Zelda?

Yeah I just love the originality of it and the creepy aura.​@dualshooter2461

You should play the 3ds version it's a lot easier to complete things around 3 day cycle

@ dang. I might try to. I don’t have a 3DS. Let me see what I can do.

You could also try the "pc port" thst came out recently. 60 fps, etc (and shortcut for most used items like the ocarina)

DAMN. It is a bit clunky. I think a remake would be INCREDIBLE. Thought it was pretty fun otherwise though.

Still not as frustrating as tears of the kingdom

Lol, OoT plays as good as a modern game. It's insane. WTF are you talking about 😅

@@RexSerpentumas good as a modern game?! I don’t quite agree with that…it just is clunky in spots. Specifically the camera, but I don’t hold that against it. Its just that it’s sofun to play that it doesn’t matter.

@RexSerpentum Most modern games suck, so that's a pretty far cry from a point in favor for OoT.

Curious. What is your favorite 2d Zelda? Mine is links awakening.
