Oh right, this is the guy making the Majora's Mask HD pack. He's just my favorite gaming KZbinr at this point, I forgot.

[@Xcizior]

to think i only found out about this guy and his work because youtube kept pestering tf outta me with this video every recommended refresh.

[@ozmarichardson6524]

Honestly same. I came here for majora's mask emulation. Stayed when I saw that RE 6 review. (Golden) I will say I think the majora stuff being on a separate channel would make things more focused

[@ddnava96]

The amount of upvotes in your comment is too perfect to upvote it

[@Rexodiak]

DON'T SAY IT EXPLICITELY Big Mario is watching...

[@gumgrapes]

Kind of a shame that I've bought Majora's Mask 4 different times and Nintendisney would still probably execute me in broad daylight if they knew how excited I am to play through this incredible remaster.

[@PacdemonStudios1]

I could have my cartridge taped to my forehead and Shiggy would have no problem holding me down while Aonuma puts a bullet straight through it into my brain in front of a framed painting of Iwata as Reggie watches from his Gamestop office with smug approval.

[@MediaMunkee]

@@PacdemonStudios1 Oh come on, Reggie isn't even part of Nintendo anymore. Honestly I'd be more inclined to blame Tatsumi and/or Shuntaro, the CEO's who succeeded Iwata. Cold-blooded businessmen through and through, and it was pretty much the instant Iwata snuffed it that the company suddenly got hyper-litigious again.

[@gumgrapes]

@@MediaMunkee Actually yeah that makes sense. I recall Nintendo actually taking their meds while he was still running things.

I still can't tell you how much I love these textures. Seeing my favourite game get this treatment really puts me in a good mood. Thank you so much for the last two years Nerrel.

[@Thetenthdoctor24]

I downloaded and applied your texture pack earlier today and just about cried when I saw the game. Your work has made Majora's Mask look somehow exactly how I remember it and much better than I remember it simultaneously. Thank you SO much for your dedication to this project, your love for the game and attention to the original art style really shine through. This is hands down the best way to experience this game.

[@MohammadAhmad-sf6by]

How did you download it?

[@TheInternetsJanitor]

[@thelemonadestandman]

It has been a real pleasure getting to watch this hd re texture grow. Thank you for doing all of this, Nerrel! I guess if I had to make one form of criticism, it's that link's belts are no longer red. It's not really a big deal, and the new models look great. I just thought the red belt looked visually interesting against his green clothes, plus it's just how I remember him looking as a kid lol! Anyway, just thought I'd try to throw some thoughts out there. Feel free to ignore all of this and only pay attention to the first two sentences of this comment.

What unbelievable patience and love and respect for the game you must have. The community's better for having someone like you in it. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@joshuacanaan9779]

Looks great, I've never played the original Majora's mask only the 3d version. But after watching all your videos about the topic I'm definitely going to play when your texture pack is completed.

[@teacup4561]

I’m in the same boat. Can’t wait to try this when it’s completed!!!!!

[@Cepheus773]

@@kylemarut6741 I played Project Restoration a month ago and it's hands down the best version of MM and an easy contender for my favorite game of all time. So good.

[@Cepheus773]

@@Josuh I'm never going back. Zora swimming and deku hopping fixed, bosses fixed, elegy of emptiness and song of soaring streamlined. So worth modding my 3DS.

[@Artersa]

This looks so freaking cool. I never finished MM and this will likely draw me in. On top of being a fun YT personality, you’re a very enjoyable artist.

[@sithlordmikeyp]

I love this channel's passive aggressiveness. And passion for one of my favorites games

[@LochNessHamster]

This project feels like one of those fan creations that's so well done and ambitious that it's intangible, like Black Mesa: Source was for well over a decade. The idea of it actually coming out and being a real thing that people can use seems almost surreal. You've done such amazing work, and I respect this project so much. I'm also really happy to see not only the project mature and develop, but also your channel and even your brand as a creator. I know that the end of this project is not going to be the end of Nerrel, and I'm really glad for that. Thank you for everything. Here's to a healthy, thriving community. 🥂

[@RoastCDuck]

You are such a mad man for singlely handed made up the entire 64 version without compromising the cryptic abandoned world feeling of Majora's like Nintendo does with brightness and bloom and your humour is just damn amazing. I want to see blurry mario text to speech becoming an actual ROM.

[@SuperMuffinman645]

This looks amazing, I'm holding off replaying MM just for this project to be finished. My only critiques are some of the clock town textures (like you mentioned) around the 2:00 minute mark. The wood is just too clean and flat looking, I can't put my finger on it but it's too photo realistic, like a minecraft texture pack. I'm still not set on Link's eyes either, they just look too dark and wet, honestly I think if it were possible, you could probably get away with just keeping the eyes as is. But what do I know. Big ups Nerrel, you're my favourite KZbinr and I can't wait for this to be done.

[@Versiris]

I think the issue is the lines between the wood slabs are very dark, which isn't the case in the original and a bit visually distracting

[@sh3mcode747]

I'm so impressed by all the work you have done. Its truly amazing to see your progression on this project and this project it self has inspired me to work on my own textures for games. Please don't stop the hard work because talent and passion like this hard to find.

[@edgiest-edgelord-that-edges]

I really gotta thank you for doing all this for my favorite Zelda game, I can't W A I T to see how this game will look in its full glory.

[@lpnp9477]

Now that there's commentary I actually watch these videos! Thanks for playing ball, Nerbel.

[@marcospaulreal5922]

hey Nerrel idk if you're even taking feedback at this point, but for the tombstone texture with the song of storms, I would say it makes more sense for the notes to be carved in instead of popping out like you made them. It just makes more sense for the whole thing to be carved because there's no way to make a stone pop out like that

[@kevin_lee_music]

I have to say, I respect your work on this like crazy. There's so few HD texture packs that actually follow the original art style, so seeing someone pour so much effort into it while making sure it looks like the same game is quite refreshing

[@El_Andru]

I want an April Fool's ASMR Nerrel video reading words that end in an "oo" sound. Like: Two Tattoo Blue Review Bamboo Glue You Stew Etc.

[@dwdw781]

I just got the game to run perfectly with your textures pack and it's honestly beyond amazing. Thank you so much, I wanted this so bad for this game. You don't get enough credit for the amount of work you put into your textures.

[@thedualitysystem]

I love these types of remaster mods. The ones that try to stay as faithful as possible while still adding a few little improvements where it's appropriate. I feel like it's something only fans can do as developers might change too much or too little due to not understanding what the fans remembered and loved about the visuals. You're doing an amazing job with this. Keep it up!

[@Annausagi2]

Man, all I need in life is a 999-hour long video of just Nerrel talking MM/texture stuff.

I randomly found you on youtube a while back and I'm glad I did. Love your dry humour and your work on this project. I think owning this game on the 64, the promotional collection edition on GC and the 3DS version covers my ass as fuck when I play your patch.

[@jasonsinn9237]

Keeping the geometry of the game the same is what makes this remaster my favorite. It's part of the art style, just like how WW has rounded edges and Twilight Princess has sharp edges. Everything is looking so beautiful. Thanks for your hard work and I can't wait to play it!

[@brig.badger2896]

Thanks Nerrel keep up the good work!

[@harrisonfrench3577]

I'd actually forgotten this was your project and have just been enjoying your content since subscribing. Amazing work as always.

[@dustybrewmer]

A personal conundrum is deciding whether this KZbin channel should grow bigger or simply stay smaller for the sake of subverting the "Eye of Nintendo". Considering I don't actually hold any influential power myself (or a reasonable expectation of heavy decision making for that matter) I root for this channel's grows well past the 1M mark. Totally my favorite content to watch at the time of posting this and coming from an avid self-proclaimed KZbin consuming addict.

[@thekiss2083]

So impressed with your work on the character portraits. That's commitment!

[@Keanine]

Do people really complain that it looks the same? That's the beauty of this pack, it's the old textures but in a higher resolution! Most HD packs tend to look ugly and overdetailed while losing the style the original game had but this pack completely sidesteps that issue

[@WarrenValion]

I am so proud of this fanbase, tbh. With Project Restoration, and this HD version - Majora's Mask has never looked better!

[@JayTohab]
