Why did Nintendo turn Zelda into NIGHTMARE FUEL?

[@SorcererLance]

3:58 - gotta love that subtle detail the MOMENT you walk over the lone island, your reflection in the water vanishes from then on... implying that's where Shadow Link came from

[@stanstanstan2597]

The aliens from Majora’s Mask are actually based off of the Flatwoods monster, a historical account of extraterrestrials from way back in the day that was drawn later on. Hope you see this Peebs, it’s actually pretty interesting if you look into it (and similar tales from throughout the ages about paranormal or cryptic activity).

[@dstinnettmusic]

Re-read the story of the flat woods monster. It isn’t like…folklore. It’s literally just another made up alien story

[@Nonsensehat]

You're blowing my mind by associating the Flatwood Monster with Nintendo. In addition to Majora's Mask, if you google image different artist renditions of it, lots of them look like they'd fit right into Paper Mario or Luigi's Manison. Other renditions look more like the creature that hides under Slenderman's bed but just ignore those.

[@Whopper744]

Always awesome remembering this as someone who has always lived in WV

[@papaleemus]

@@dstinnettmusic Technically it is folklore. The definition of folklore being that it's 'shared by a particular group of people; it encompasses the traditions common to that culture, subculture or group.' Since the 1950s, it has become an integral part of that town's identity. They host a Flatwoods Festival annually to commemorate the day of its discovery, they have a Flatwoods Museum, and a few tourist attractions.

[@dstinnettmusic]

@@papaleemus I mean, sure, but the original commented makes it sound like it is some old Native American story or something.

[@macdongr]

In defense of Wind Waker's redeads... They've probably got the scariest cry in any Zelda game. And maybe the creepiest face.

[@MistyShnekin]

tbh one of the things about the Wind Waker redeads that gets me is the way it looks like they're breathing like they are *heaving* as the walk towards you that's horrifying

[@macdongr]

I was never scared of Redeads in Zelda until Wind Waker, it caught me so off guard that they were in this game and that they were this creepy.

[@SorcererLance]

weren't their screams basically a pitched-up elephant cry?

[@NewsofPE]

I would put ocarina of time's redead's scream higher on the creepy scale

[@Iconic_Zoot]

Something that's also scary about them is that if you manage to see one without it attacking you, if you fire an arrow at it, it'll dodge the arrow by tilting it's head forward or back, then turn to you and stare at you for a a few seconds. They also stare at you before their eyes light up if I remember correctly, so you just see this thing dodge an attack as fast as an arrow shot, then just turn their head to you without moving the rest of their body, and stare at you with these empty dark eye sockets.

[@Antelieris1]

I remember renting Majora's Mask from Blockbuster, finding out you needed an expansion card for it to work, my mom coming home the next day with an expansion card, and then playing it for a few hours. I couldn't figure out how to do something (Forgot what) and let the time run out, and then saw the moon crashing scene. That freaked me out SO MUCh, I promptly returned the game and didn't play it again until I got my Wii. Since I was an adult at that point, and was prepared for the creepy stuff, I enjoyed it despite the occasional freeze and crash. Ever since then, it remains one of my favorite Zelda games because of how different and in depth it was. There was a creativity behind it that other Zelda games just don't do. I kinda wish they'd do another Zelda game with a similar motif, where all the story lies in the side quests rather than the main quest.

[@lauramichelle6976]

I rented oot from blockbuster and just used the last persons save file and I had no idea what to do and thought it was such a dumb game. And it took almost 20 years for me to try any Zelda game again😂 but I really enjoy OoT now

[@Ashurman666]

I'm surprised they didn't include that one scene where Ghirahim appears behind Link and sticks out his tongue in the most disturbing way ever, like he wants to lick Link and eat him or something.

[@MistyShnekin]

WAIT YOU'RE SO RIGHT WHERE WAS GHIRAHIM Like he's a blast and an icon but he's c r e e p y

[@poecollector64]

Yeah, or the cutscene where his skin starts falling off and several parts of his body get all up in the camera's space. I streamed Skyward Sword a few years ago and when I got to that part I said "Hello Twitch support, how do I ban someone from my channel for sexual harassment if he's in the video game"

[@benbayne-davies2397]

8:18 You’re not wrong, Mr. Butter Gamer. That’s kinda the point of Majora’s Mask: you can’t really save people. All you can do is give them some peace before the end, represented by the mask they give you.

[@lawrencelewis1570]

You are able to do everything Majora's Mask in a single cycle EXCEPT save the bomb shop lady. You have to let her get robbed in order to complete Anju and Kafei's quest. Back in college my best friend and I spent weeks trying to devise a way to save everyone but you can't do it.

[@zombrine34]

TOTALLY agree on the Forest Temple theme, it sounds so haunting to me, and paired with the eerie vibe that kokiri forest has as an adult and the dreamy visuals of the n64 it really creeped me out when i first played it

[@brendanrisney2449]

I am _beyond_ excited for Tears of the Kingdom. I have never considered something like this, but I am almost _certainly_ going to get that special collector's edition. Also helps that it's like a week before my birthday.

[@OrpheusRGB]

This was so hilarious and creepy, Peebs! 😬 Thank you so much!

[@bandicootsauce4569]

I think that bizarre cutscene from Twilight Princess was meant to be a cautionary tale about how dark magic can twist someone internally to the point where they're just... not themselves anymore. Hence, all the bizarre imagery that would be more typically associated with someone descending into madness, because descending into madness is, in itself, a dark descent where one loses themselves.

[@SquibToast]

8:09 you’re correct in most cases, whenever I play the game I always do all the important sidequests (except the moon and sun one with kafei that requires you to die) and then beat the boss, so everyone’s happy

[@MaximeLafreniere433]

OK, I think I have the most terrifying/stressful/unsettling dungeon possible, hear me out... The TP art style and brightness/darkness Add in a lore as dark as the Arbiter's Grounds (like the Dungeon is both in the mortal realm and the realm of the dead). Put a s* ton of creepy enemies and traps (go at the bottom of this for enemy ideas and what kind of traps). Make the celling of every room seem super low for claustrophobia and the void seem super deep for Acrophobia. Make a Wallmaster follows Link trough the whole dungeon (because stress) (no sound or shadow as warning (like TH)) Put a lot of skulls as decoration in the walls, floors and ceilings (many types of skulls: humans, mobs in the game, animals). Blood as decoration a little everywhere (make it look it comes from behind a door in some places). Instruments like in Bottom of the Well and the Shadow Temple (now add skeletons on them). Add a dungeon gimmick where a Stalfos spawns everywhere the player gets a game over. Final Hours music (but make it get louder as the player goes deeper (like Ganondorf's organ)) (Shadow Temple second choice) A section like the boat of the Shadow Temple where enemies just get on the boat Coffins everywhere (with some of them falling like in TWW and some containing mobs) Opening certain chests triggers some traps and enemy spawns The cursed water in the Ancient Cistern (make sure you get some waterfalls that come out of giant skulls at some point) Every once in a while, a laugh of Skull Kid from MM plays Make the walls act like in Jabu-Jabu's Belly where they move (can always make them look ghostly). Jabu-Jabu's Belly ambient sounds (Mini-)Bosses ideas: Armoghoma, Death Sword, Gomess, Dead Hand, Blind the Thief, Stalblind I'd say to add a Phantom Hourglass and/or Phantoms gimmick, but that would take too much from the Temple of The Ocean King (but Fantoms in a 3D game would be incredible in my opinion) and wouldn't work well with the rest. So, the enemies I was talking about, I was thinking *Anything turned into an invisible version. *Skulltulas (the TP version preferably) *Redeads and Gibdos (give them the TWW scream too) (No Sun Song allowed). *Dead Hand's hands that stick out the floor and the walls at multiple spots in the dungeon *Stal mobs like in BOTW (yes they pop out of the ground at any random time and you'll never know the kind, when or where). *Floor masters with the style of OOT that look severed like Bongo Bongo's hands but make them act like the TWW ones. *Flying pots. *Poes (TP style). *Wizzrobes with the behaviour of PH (make them look like Wizzro). *Bubbles that come out the void. *Archers of some kind that shoot from super far away, you never know where they are and they have a slow shooting rate. *Like-Like (drop them from the ceiling in unexpected places) *Zombokoblins or any zombie version of common enemies. *A new enemy that takes the appearance of random NPC' you've seen trough the game but in a creepy version (White eyes Ilia and Link in TP for reference or an undead versions). And for the traps (yeah OK I ran out of ideas quick) *Fake floors in which you fall (like what the Lens of Truth allows to not _fall_ for) *The eyes that shoot fire but put them behind fake walls (go back one line for explanation) *The spinning scythe from OOT *Spikes that pop up when you get close *Ceiling slowly lowering to crush the player (the walls version always works) *Arrow shooting traps that you don't see

[@AtlasBlizzard]

No mention of the Skulltulas? They freaked me out in both TP and SS. The first time the Blood Moon happened in BotW, I had no idea what was going on and it scared the crap out of me. The Malice in the Divine Beasts with those big glowing eyes and the mouths that spit out enemies... ugh, that creeps me out so much.

[@Rotog]

Granted I haven’t always followed Zelda game releases and I am preoccupied with a lot right now, but I’m kind of surprised how unexcited I am for Tears of the Kingdom. I remember counting the days until release for Skyward Sword, Breath of the Wild and Link’s Awakening Remake, but I feel like Tears of the Kingdom is really sneaking up on me and I forget that it’s even happening most of the time. Dunno why🤷

[@Dan_Roland]

Same. As soon as BotW’s release date was announced I made a countdown on my phone and I probably spent a cumulative 5 hours just staring at it before March 3rd. But now, idk... _for me,_ it’s just the fact that it’s not an entirely new world to explore. My dream was for this to be like Majora’s Mask - same art style and a handful of characters carrying over, but an entirely new world.

[@TheWorstPartyMember]

I think it's troubled development cycle is to blame. We all burned up all our hype within the first year after it's announcement and then the long news lull did nothing to rekindle it. I know for me getting the release date was such a relief since it meant I could just sit back and enjoy other games until then. Pretty sure once May rolls around though I'll start turning into an impatient gremlin again.

[@MineCrapSteve]

@@Dan_Roland At least this game seems to have plenty of new areas added on from the original game, and the original world will presumably have different content, so it should still be a lot of fun. That said, I do agree that it isn't as hype as if Link and Zelda had been transported to another world to explore anew instead of a world that's only half-new. The main hope, then, is that the Koroks and Shrines are replaced with something more meaningful to explore à la past Zeldas.

[@-inFinity05-]

I’m genuinely shocked they didn’t include the death animations of Koloktos.

it's interesting that Link's statue has eyes and the others do not.

[@dstinnettmusic]

I’m excited for Tears of the Kingdom, but it’s a bit tempered. My hope is that Breath of the Wild provided enough of a base to work from that the experience just feels like that bit more fleshed out. I want real dungeons and a bunch of the old items used to unlock them. There’s probably a way to balance this with exploration and “freedom”

[@michaeloverton04]

Funfact about the Dark Link fight in OoT, he technically doesn't appear until you walk on land without water, at which point your reflection in said water disappears.

Iirc, the dev team said that Tears of the Kingdom is gonna be the Majora’s mask to Breath of the Wild’s Ocarina of time, so we’ll see when the game comes out! I’m very excited about the game! I’ve waited since 2019 to get my hands on it! 😁 I’m shocked that the cursed skulltula people didn’t deter me from playing OOT, as a toddler!

[@timothymckane6362]

The only thing freaky is that near at the end of the Ghost Ship level on the original Wind Waker game (where you about to get the treasure chest of the undecipherable Triforce chart) there is a face on the wall. When you approach towards the chest, the face would make a very creepy smile. That really creep the hell out of me back then. Due to that, I (during some game replays later back then) tend to change the camera position away just to avoid seeing that...thing.

[@CodenameBolts]

I'm really excited for Tears of the Kingdom, but I'm worried the overworld will feel too similar to Breath of the Wild (apart from the sky islands because they're new). I'm just really hoping the new creatures and the towns (which will probably be different due to the passage of time) will make the game feel new again.

[@ekkabean]

Yeah I'm having a hard time seeing how they're gonna make it feel new

[@Capn_Taco]

I think the layout of the map as far as where death mountain is in accordance to zoros domain and everything will be similar but I think the map will be completely different otherwise. Elevation alone not including the islands they already said will be different drastically, plus there’s no towers or shrines shown in any trailers making it seem that it will be totally different that way as well and everything will have a much darker feel. Almost how majoras mask was to ocarina.

Botw is my favorite game ever made so of COURSE I am excited for Tears of the Kingdom. But I don’t feel like after the trailers I was as excited as I could be? I didn’t know what made this more than just Botw with some sky islands, and with the 6 year dev time and no obvious reason for it, I was worried it was a troubled project. But then there was an art book leak. I looked at it and it actually didn’t spoil anything I wouldn’t have minded seeing in a trailer. I’m not recommending you look at it, but I don’t think it spoils a lot. What it did tell me is this game is DEFINITELY not just Botw 1.5 and this game is going to blow everyone’s minds. I literally can’t wait, and I hope they make one more big blowout trailer so everyone can be as excited as I am.

[@nickk3077]

I thought the end of Spirit Tracks was very surprising! They killed Byrne and the Lokomos all departed to the heavens, essentially dying! I got attached to them and they straight up died! Maybe they just knew they would never use them again after this game. Then you got that part where Malladus used Zelda's body and Cole's body as vessels, which was eerie. Then Link and Zelda actually got together in the end, which is the only time where this really happens.

admittedly i don't have much of an interest in the zelda series (they're fantastic games, i just didn't really grow up with them or get too into it). but despite having never played wind waker or phantom hourglass, spirit tracks is genuinely one of my favorite games of all time. maybe cuz i played that one as a kid, but i replayed it recently and had a blast. i love the puzzles + the story (especially zelda's role in that game, i love that she's basically your companion throughout it). all this to say the brief clips of spirit tracks cutscenes showing up in this video made me unreasonably giddy. they made me smile and bounce in my bed. so, i guess in case you were wondering if spirit tracks has any fans: it's me. i'm the spirit tracks fan

The shark-like creatures were chasing me the whole way with the eerie music that accompanies them. That's right when I coincidentally ran into one of the spots where a Big Octo appears. It was the first time i saw that happen in the game and I was a little freaked out.

[@MineCrapSteve]

I had to pause the game when leaving the island at that part as a kid because my heart nearly leapt out of my chest when I heard the different, much darker music. Then again, I was also scared of the boos when I played NSMB and SM64DS for the first time at 7 years old, so maybe that's not saying very much.

One of my favorite creepy moments in Zelda that almost always gets left off of lists is in Minish Cap, where if you take too long to get to Vaati in Dark Hyrule Castle, he actually completely extracts the Light Force from Zelda, killing her. This gets you a game over. In every other Zelda game, either Zelda remains a prisoner, or it's merely implied that she MIGHT be dead. But in Minish Cap? This is the only time in the series where it is explicitly stated that Zelda will 100% die if you fail to reach her in time. Of course, it's hard to see this ending, given that the time limit is pretty generous, but it can still happen.

I think the spider curse was something Ganondorf did to them. I may be wrong, but I have a feeling it was that. I agree that the bottom of the well is very dark, like blood, a old guillotine. A majora mask is one of the darkest game. Like poor dad that got cursed and became a gibdo because of the curse in Ikana, but I most say the creapiest thing in Majora Mask is the happy mask salesman who teleport like that in the end of the game and litteraly can undo almost any curse. But for Romani I think Link is creating multiple timeloop/timeline to the point where Romani is a paradoxe. Also I agree with you PBG, during all the game, there's suspense about Zant, but at the end he is disappoitment. He is creepy and sinister at the beginning of the game, but at the end when you fight him, he turns into a clow.

12:00 I dunno, does it count that when I was doing the quest I didn't know, but when we got to her bedroom and she started acting weird I figured it out? like when the cutscene started playing and the music started getting warped I was like "Oh, you're sick and easy to manipulate right now, you're about to get transformed by dark powers and I'm gonna have to free you like the Goron Chief"

I wish for the ghost ship they used the original gamecube footage because it has that moment where when you reach the treasure once the ladder comes down, there's a stone carved face in the wall with a neutral expression. However, if you move close enough or look at the face through the telescope, it turns into a huge sharp toothed grin. It's such a subtle creepy thing!! and yes I am very much excited for TOTK, the only thing I feel like is kind of weird is the vehicle building stuff lol but I'm willing to give it a try. Plus there's only so many times I can open BOTW and give myself some task to do b/c I want to play the game but don't really have anything to do anymore lol.

It has been ages since I played through some of the older Zeldas, but now I do recall being unsettled by a lot in Ocarina and especially Majora's Mask. Twilight Princess had its moments as well. When I was a kid, the one thing from Zelda that scared me othe most (besides Dead Hand) was my first encounter with a Wallmaster in the Forest Temple of Ocarina of Time. I don't think I read the hints about it or even knew about it. I recall leaving Link standing still for a bit and heard that creepy sound as the Wallmaster's shadow grows closer. When it finally jumped down and grabbed me, I just completely lost it! Zelda has always had some pretty good scares! I never found anything particularly freaky in Wind Waker except maybe running into the Big Octos or those shark enemies that tried to knock you out of your boat.

Like same, I am so excited for the new game but I have heard and seen so little of other people getting excited. Like I get some people might be annoyed we don't know more about the game but that's what makes Zelda games so great is they often don't show everything so you get to experience it.

I've never played a Zelda game for more than an hour but the creepy stuff they sneak in always seems interesting.

[@skyvader1238]

You are missing out man.

[@Gamefreq184]

@@skyvader1238 I know but for some reason I can't seem to get into them. I think pbg is the main way I've seen Zelda. I think I did a bit of ocarina back on my cousins 64 though as I remember the gorons and the bomb bracelet but don't think I got far as I never got to adult link.

[@Joeynator3000]

Anyways, Kirby next...because you know, that series has TONS of dark/disturbing stuff in a lot of games. lol

[@xion-rosegirl8472]

12:34 yeah, I mean to be fair that’s the whole point of the build up with Zant, he was introduced to be intimidating but as the more the game progresses you find at the end to be the most pathetic being, even shows in his boss battle going all berserk, not what you expect when they lose composure

[@okayblondehairbrownhaireyesdun]

Dude I’m so excited for Tears Of The Kingdom. I haven’t love previous Zelda games but this looks like my style.

[@Worm-revolver]

I'm excited for TotK, I just wonder what the games gonna look like, and it's content, given the designers said it was initially going to be dlc before it got too big, kind of like Mario Galaxy 2.

[@aluzza2541]

i don't know if you listen to faces on the ground that often 😂😂😂

[@Lady_ETHNE]

ZeLink in Spirit Tracks in a nutshell: 13:58 *gasps* "I'm back to life! Let's make out."

[@Torinna_]

Armo Gohma from Twilight Princess will never not be terrifying to me. I have been scared of spiders since I was young. I remember normal Skulltulas bothered me. But that boss had me actually afraid

[@cmantheboi2745]

I really hope there are more creepy monsters/bosses as well as NPC's in TotK!
