How do you get randomizers for LOZ

[@AceLeader101]

Fun fact, one of the other 3ds quality of life improvements they made was allowing the player to equip a human mask while transformed, doing so will automatically cause link to remove the transformation and put on the human mask. Interestingly, this also applies to the fierce deity mask, meaning in mm3d you actually don't get soft locked anywhere if you manage to wear the fierce diety mask in the overworld.

[@linklink3069]

I mean, you can still easily remove with the glitch that allows you to wear it anywhere, so it's not too useful for that, but it is definitely more convenient.

[@diodora2381]

Leo's Majora's Mask Restoration Mod, it's been around for a few years now. Also the randomizer doesn't have all of the features from the restoration mod unfortunately. I'm not sure if they fixed Twinmold in this version which sucks or got rid of the eyeball weak points.

[@jacklansdale77]

@@diodora2381 So funny that they had a perfectly good series of bosses and they felt the need to stamp eyeball weak spots on all of them.

[@joshuareesor1756]

I imagine it's because it's easier to swim in tighter spaces with the 3DS swimming controls compared to the N64's, with the only places big enough to really use the faster swimming being Great Bay and Pinnacle Rock. Plus, if you use Chateau Romani, you basically get the N64 controls back in 3DS.

[@joshuareesor1756]

@@jacklansdale77 I never understood people's complaints about the eyeballs. The only time they act as weak points is when using the Deku against Odolwa and fighting the Blue Twinmold. Besides that, you just hit the bosses' main body until they get stunned like in the N64, with the eyeball being a concentrated point to hit in their stunned state instead of just continuing to hit their body some more. The eyeballs are the change that affects the boss design the least and is probably the most appropriate use of the "eyeball weakpoint" in the Zelda series due to being a consistent feature and tying into the main villain and themes of the game.

[@MrKevin486]

@joshuareesor1756 I never had any issues with the swimming in great bay temple as a kid ever.....sounds like they are "fixing" a problem that didn't exist and then replacing it with a bigger problem: It makes the game, and the Zora mask WAY less awesome.

Bombers Notebook was in N64 MM, but the 3DS version enhanced it A LOT. Or at least I think it did, because I don't think I touched it in when 100% playthrough of N64 MM, but I relied on it heavily for my 3DS MM playthrough. Seemed like it made it much easier to do Anju and Kafei quest and keep track of heart piece checks.

[@mjmk6647]

Yeah! In the N64 I never knew, wich Heart Piece I was missing while playing 100%, because this Handbook doesn't list them all!

[@Sauspreme]

@@mjmk6647 word, yeah I can't remember exactly, but I think it just kept track of events right? So having basically a 100% checklist added in 3DS was dope!

[@AkameGaKillfan777]

​@@Sauspreme The Bomber's Notebook is awful in terms of how little faith it puts into the player's abilities, and there's no way to turn it off or avoid it.

[@Michael-hc2hp]

There really should've been an option to turn off the Bomber's Notebook from appearing every two seconds though. It's more expanded than the original, but everytime something is put in there, it takes longer than it would in the N64 version, and it does it for everything, even when you fail to get something

[@Sauspreme]

​@@Michael-hc2hp No yeah you guys are right on that. The notebook alert every time you interact with someone is unnecessary and breaks up the gameplay with no fast text. I just started a new game after watching this to relearn everything, before I install the rando mod, and it's excessive. But the actual notebook features are dope

[@beornwagner1]

It _does not work_ with Majora's Mask. It's great in OoT, but MM was extremely well designed to work with the graphics, and the brighter setup is just aggravating with the story here.

[@EighmyLupin]

People get big mad over anything being different from their childhood. It's honestly super pathetic.

[@joshuareesor1756]

@@beornwagner1 Majora's Mask's atmosphere always hinged on being surreal and strange, with there being plenty of colourful parts, so I don't see how it being brighter "aggravates" the story. Twilight Princess was the game that used darker graphics to add to it's atmosphere and story.

[@765craven4]

As an MM and MM3D enjoyer I still personally prefer the original to the 3DS version aesthetically, and I grew up with both. The N64 style imo just suits the vibe of the game better. As for mechanics I think they're both mixed bags. Some nice QoL improvements are definitely there in 3D like the reworked Song of Double Time, but the 3 Day Cycle is also shorter in 3D which I'm not a fan of. Not to mention the boss changes in 3D are pretty unanimously considered bad for good reason. And the Zora Swim physics are a massive downgrade. And Deku Link water skipping physics are a big downgrade. There isn't really a "perfect" version of MM, unfortunately, even if we're considering Rom hacks and stuff, though there are some that come pretty close in the N64 version, but I haven't personally found any for 3D that are able to address the majority of the issues people have with it, unfortunately .

[@joshuareesor1756]

​@@765craven4 Are the 3DS bosses' opinions really unanimous? The only one I find to be worse is Odolwa, and he still has the upgrade of the Deku mask actually being viable for his boss fight. Besides him, Goht is basically the same, Gyorg has more going on than just the repetitive back and forth in the N64 version, and Twinmold now has a properly complex moveset and challenge for the pre-ultimate boss compared to the overly simple and style-over-substance of the N64 (albeit with some conveyance issues on how to tackle the new fight). And Majora is generally the same too, with some damage upgrades and move tells being the extent of changes. I can understand that the N64 versions are easier to follow, seeing as they boil down to "hit them until they die" in their design. Still, it always seemed disappointing to me that the N64 bosses became simpler as the game progressed, with it taking until Majora's Warth to have a boss with as much variance as Odolwa. The 3DS version makes the curve of difficulty and complexity much smoother, with there being more going on in the boss design overall. Whether someone likes them as much as the N64 comes down to personal preference, but I don't see what would make them a unanimous downgrade compared to the original. And before anyone says anything, the eyes only change Odolwa if you fight him as Deku Link and Blue Twinmold. Besides that, their acting as weak points offers no meaningful difference compared to the full-body weak points of the original, with the only significant critique being subjective aesthetic taste. Heck, they actually add to the bosses' overall connection to Majora and the game's themes, so they still have value beyond the gameplay.

[@joshuareesor1756]

Always great to see the 3DS version get some modding love too. While it can be contentious, it's still Majora's Mask at its core and deserves to have its new visuals and designs appreciated (especially when alot of the discourse over the changes often gets overblown in their effect on the gameplay).

[@jyke321]

I broke my 3ds circle pad (quick spin attacks) playing MM3D. It had been years since I played the original, so the Giant's mask change was the only thing that really bugged me. Over all it was still a lot of fun.

[@Matanumi]

I love MM3D and the visual and QoL changes.... minus the zora swimming.... But project restoration IS THE WAY to play the game

[@AkameGaKillfan777]

The changes to Odalwa, Twinmold, Bomber's Notebook, and how awful the Goron moon segment is are all terrible.

[@joshuareesor1756]

​@@AkameGaKillfan777 3DS Odolwa is a worse fight, mainly due to how slow his reaction and attack speed were made, but I still appreciate the Deku being given a purpose instead of being useless like in the N64. 3DS Twinmold I would say is improved because it has much more substance compared to the N64's focus on the spectacle, making Twinmold much more befitting for its place as the preultimate boss of the game. Whether someone likes the new mechanics introduced comes down to preference, and it does have some issues conveying information to the player, but I still think it's a more fulfilling fight to learn and replay compared to the simple and underwhelming fight of the N64. 3DS Bomber's Notebook is a trade-off that incentivizes the sidequests more by tracking every step and NPC, making them easier to follow and engage with for new players but more intrusive. It can be a bit annoying as an experienced player since I already know what to do, but nothing I would say is terrible. Isn't the Goron Moon segment the same as the original? The Zora is the one that changed, which made for a more interesting use of the Zora's swimming abilities instead of just guessing left or right through a narrow tube maze.

[@AkameGaKillfan777]

@@joshuareesor1756 Your argument for the Deku Mask makes no sense. Are you just ignoring the other several dozen puzzles and obstacles required to make use of it? The first Twinmold is mostly okay, but the second one sucks because of how awful Giant Link controls and how vague the game is at telling you how to beat it. They could've made a better fight by keeping Giant Link the same, but giving Twinmold more attacks, which they've shown to be capable of. The Bomber's Notebook for how intrusive it is makes me want to complete even less of the game because it's always forced on you with no option to disable it, how much it drags the pacing down, often for completely unnecessary things like losing a minigame. Thanks for the extra middle finger just because I accidentally missed one enemy in the shooting galleries, I definitely wouldn't have figured out wether or not I succeeded if I didn't have that 🙄 The Goron rolling having full 360⁰ movement on the surface should be a complete improvement, but it isn't. There are plenty of times where you'll just want to move in a straight line, but it doesn't happen because of not just the movement itself, but because the 3DS circle pad doesn't have directional indents to go in one rigid direction completely. It's bothered me on several other games, but for the moon trial where you need to go perfectly straight at all times, it becomes almost impossible to beat. I don't know why Nintendo stopped doing this on not just the 3DS, but the Wii U and Switch also.

[@TheTacoGames]

As one of the lead devs on MM3DR i'm glad you only encountered one bugged item check (even if it was an important one). I hope you'll check out the randomizer again when we add new features!

[@AkameGaKillfan777]

[@shakirayl5851]

22:20 There's actually competitions in which horses have to jump over hurdles and walls of much more than their height, I think they are called 'the puissance'. But afaik they are also rather frowned upon as they are not good for the horses health, destroying their ankles and causing serious injuries etc. So in general it's not unrealistic but an 'untrained' horse like epona probably really shouldn't be able to make that jump THAT easily

[@AkameGaKillfan777]

Altering bosses is probably a much greater challenge than simply changing control methods, movement speed, and certain in-game items. A lot of it probably just comes from changing numerical values or certain options in the game's code. I only just recently found someone that after multiple attempts managed to fully remake Odalwa from the ground-up in the OoT 64 engine.
