Final Battle Orchestrated - The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

[@whitemagicalhat2844]

His "Secret Technique of Darkness" is literally just turning off the lights.

[@Acrosurge]

Perhaps, but Ganon becomes completely intangible to both the Master Sword and the Silver Arrows in the darkness. No other Ganondorf can do that.

[@bowser5678]

@@AcrosurgeTwo words, Tempered Sword, bypasses the requirement of Silver Arrows

[@Mr.Board_]

@@bowser5678you can hit him with even the base master sword if you time a spin attack (witch may be a bug but it was never fixed in any emulation/rerelease)

[@MichaelTheRead]

@@Mr.Board_ I like to believe that's a feature, not a bug, since it requires such careful timing to actually hit him, and he _is_ invisible. You basically have to instinctively know where he's going to move in order to hit him.

[@christophmalone6388]

Well at least he’s not misleading about the name of the technique

0:25 "I never imagined a boy like you could give me so much trouble. It's unbelievable that you defeated my alterego, Agahnim the Dark Wizard, twice! But I will never give you the Triforce. I will destroy you and make my wish to conquer both Light and Dark Worlds come true without delay."

[@ausgamecollector]

Wonder why his wish was taking so long, probably the Sages’ seal

[@knightofarkronia9968]

He was trapped in the Sacred Realm, which he turned into the Dark World with his power. Since he was not content with one reality, his plan throughout the game was to break the Sages’ seal in order to remake Hyrule and the rest of the outside world in his image as well.

[@Kirbyfan7209]

Even the words were like in the game… incredible…

[@nolastname908]

Very fitting for facing Ganon at his most powerful in the downfall timeline and would fit perfectly with BotW2's final battle theme

[@dimitrimoisiades7292]

Yo imagine the final boss of BOTW2, we fight the mummified Ganondorf after he gives a mololouge, then shortly after we beat the first phase he transforms into the variation of Ganon from ALTTP to reference the original. That would be cool and could also give a hint on where BOTW fits on the timeline. You could argue that Calamity Ganon was technically Ganon but I believe that Calamity Ganon is a puppet of Ganondorf's hatred and malice that came from his body beneath Hyrule castle. Considering how much damage Calamity Ganon caused I'm anxious to find out what Mummified Ganondorf is going to do.

@@dimitrimoisiades7292 botw is on the child timeline

[@dimitrimoisiades7292]

@@Mikemic2218 the popular belief is that it takes place at the end of all three, given that it has references to each of the three timelines. In all seriousness I can see this being true for the fallen and child timelines but the adult timeline doesn’t make much sense to me because at the end of that one Hyrule is under water and people are living in the new Hyrule. Although it isn’t impossible to think the flood stopped and people moved back to the old Hyrule over time. It’s still confusing and vague and I hope something happens that explains how it could work.

[@cavemanbuddyolpal]

@@dimitrimoisiades7292 ehh rock salt says something about an ancient sea and the leviathans point to something you got the embers of twilight line and a lot of more minor details connecting to downfall (master sword is in the lost woods, tunic of the wild is very reminiscent of downfall tunics (alttp and Zelda 1 art)

[@Archon3960]

@@dimitrimoisiades7292 That, or we will fight mummy Ganondorf, then semi-hydrated Ganondorf, then fully reformed Ganondorf, then Ganon, all across Hyrule Castle.

[@MichaelTheRead]

2:50 is the part where he snuffs out all the torches and goes invisible in the shadows. I imagine him laughing tauntingly at Link from various angles before sneaking up behind him for a deathblow strike at 3:05

[@Mister_Peep]

Gosh, imagine alttp boss battle but in 3D, would be terrific

[@VampireKillerCrypt]

That would be fantastic!!!!

[@ChrisBelmont]

Good lord, I can already see it. Ganon’s Trident flying around, him popping in and out teleporting, and most importantly his fire! It’d probably be one of the best 3D fights in the series in general outside of Wind Waker and TP

[@gokublack8342]

The game itself would be great going back and forth between light and dark Worlds

[@JulesTheSleepyDemon]

The functionalities of BOTW’s combat system combined with an art style reminiscent of LTTP’s original art. That would be gold.

[@kleev6576]

Nintendo be like Nah let's make Warriors games and boring open world fucking Zelda games.

[@qanondorfkingoftheqerudo8946]

2:08. That low piano keys being slammed evokes the feeling of a treacherous duel like nothing else.

[@ryancentnarowicz]

I like the Zelda’s lullaby singing then it ends with what sounds like a Gerudo chant then Ganons theme plays again. It’s like a callback to Ganons origins as Ganondorf a little bit.

[@graylyhen9490]

What a beautiful remix. You really captured the heroic legend in this. I played ALttP 15 times when I was a kid. It's one of my favorite games. God bless you for making such a wonderful version of our hero's final battle against the Prince of Evil Ganon

[@Phoenixesper1]

BEHOLD MY POWER! "Flick" Ganon turns off the lights then begins lighting his farts on fire. The hero of time faces the frat boy of destiny!

[@Andyblarg]

My favorite thing about this fight is Ganon COMPLIMENTS YOU mid fight before the disappearing act.

[@charlespackowski6620]

Alttp shows a lot about Ganon’s character with the minimal dialogue and screen time he has. We know his power as he bended and shaped the sacred realm into the dark world his own personal dimension but even that isn’t enough for him he wants Hyrule to add to his collection. We know his cunning as his scheme to gain the trust of the kingdom of Hyrule with Agahnim completely works. We know what he respects as when Link manages to back him up into a corner he complements the boy before using his most powerful technique that being the secret technique of darkness. He respects power and will and Link has plenty of that. ALttP gives us a perfect base for what Ganon should be and other games added on to his character

[@julianlived]

This is truly amazing, such an great song but is rarely to find a remix of “Prince of Darkness/Ganon’s Battle Theme”. Props for doing such an outstanding orchestration of my favorite Zelda theme song.

[@numberpi5473]

The track is structured in a precise way you can imagine Zelda giving Link the bow of light, the moment Link notices he has to light up the room, and when he overcomes Ganon. Very nice.

[@BeanMan157]

is a nod to a link between worlds when Zelda gives the bow to defeat Yuga-Ganon

[@Acrosurge]

I noticed that too, even though in a Link to the Past, Zelda does not give Link the Light Arrows. Instead, the cursed Fairy Queen of the Sacred Realm crafts the Silver Arrows for Link to use against Ganon (the one who cursed her). Its a unique story touch!

[@Acrosurge]

This is phenomenal! I can imagine the battle, not just the game sprites, but a fully fleshed out battle between the Hero of Legend and the King of Evil. The pacing and touches of the story are all here. Well done!

[@AzaniorTheZooted]

this is absolutely perfect. the orchestra couldnt have executed the part at 2:24 any better, i love it.

[@chadcollier5865]

You deserve all the world has in store for you for making this

[@rd8285]

[@spaceagesage1226]

[@Andoser]

Excellent updated version of my favorite battle theme against the most fitting version of Ganon. This is the epitome of Zelda

[@RaffyTheSeagull]

1:37 to 1:58 sounds so much like some Princess Mononoke ost 👌

[@rabbialmodovar7231]

After defeating the Hero of Time, Ganondorf, the prince of thieves, completes the Triforce, becoming the Dark Beast Ganon. Despite his victory, Zelda and the Six Sages manage to seal him away in the Dark Realm, restoring temporary peace to the Hyrule. After sealing Ganon and the Triforce in the Dark World, Zelda and the sages mourn the Hero of Time. But yet, there is hope that a new Hero in green will rise and provide hope in the future.

[@capitanpastabase6342]

albw came out on 2013

[@charlespackowski6620]

@@capitanpastabase6342 that’s a sequel not a remake

[@MichaelTheRead]

I imagine Ganon beating Link to death and triggering a fake "game over" screen, before he uses the Triforce to revive Link and demand he continue the fight, a bit like Thor and Kratos in God of War: Ragnarok.

Real shit, this was LoTR af and I am not complaining. Captures the ancient feel and power of Ganon so well.

[@ruggie.74]

[@eXRiott]

His most powerful move is to sink the world and you into darkness and basically attacking you from the shadows of despair. Me : so turn off the lights on a stormy night. IGHT fam.

[@user-bz9of6tn6l]

It's interesting to note that, when he's Ganon, he acts more like a beast, whereas Ganondorf the man is a mastermind. But here in A Link to the Past, Ganon the pig monster is actually quite a brilliant mastermind. I'd love to see this in later games, where the Beast Ganon retains the intelligence and intellect of Ganondorf.
