Every time I play Majora's Mask, whenever it finally comes time to fight Majora, I like to reset the day and do what I like to call "The Perfect Run". It involves helping literally everyone that wouldn't get help otherwise. Save the injured guard and kimori, defeat every boss, save every fairy, do the lovers sidequest, save all the zora eggs, tell all of the stalfos in the graveyard each night to destroy the grave so they can rest in peace, save the guy in the swamp house from his curse, save the goron who gives you the don gero mask, save the deku princess, make the sharp brothers and the king ikana rest, save romani's cows (and her), and help cremia get to the milk bar safe. Its alot of work and time managment, but its just barely possible.

@@Teaandephemery suprisingly, there is only one time where you have to choose. You cant actually save the old woman on the first day from getting robbed and do the lovers sidequest, because sakon has to go to the curiosity shop on the second night with her bombs to allow for kafei to know where his hideout is, but that is the only time something is mutually exclusive. The postman can deliver the letter because it actually isnt nessasary to the quest to deliver the letter to madame aroma.

@LB_ 3 года назад

There's a secret achievement in Outer Wilds referencing this. Apt for a game which draws heavy inspiration from Majora's Mask.

@kidvandal4955 Год назад

Yes, the fight with Majora is a joke when using the fierce deity mask, but think about it thematically: it isn’t just Link fighting Majora in this instance - it’s all of Termina. Everyone you helped, all the masks you collected, their happiness is what earns you the power to defeat Majora. And yes, you can defeat the final boss without the fierce deity, but it is so much harder, because you haven’t yet been an hero to these people. The fierce deity mask is a symbol of true heroism and altruism - its only by taking interest into these people’s everyday lives that allows you to fight their oppressor. You are their hope and you fight on their behalf, but they are the ones who enable your victory. The game designers didn’t have to say it explicitly - the game shows you when you get the final mask that you are a hero, but only if you chose to be one.

@akward4210 Год назад

I think that this is also why Fierce Deity looks like Link, because that spirit of true heroism and altruism is also who Link is as a person. I'd like to think that Fierce Deity is Link's "true face", to quote the Moon Children.

@iangreer4585 Год назад

So, if you want a thematic challenge, try beating Majora using all 3 Goron, Zora, and Deku Masks for the 1st phase (and more specifically the boss masks), regular Link in the 2nd phase, and Fierce Deity in the final phase. It makes the greatest sense to me from a cannon point because it truly does represent everything Link has been through.

So, I just finished playing through this game again and my 5 year old niece watched me play quite a bit of it. Some of her interesting reactions: -After I described what the moon was doing and how it was going to fall in 3 days, she kept begging me to let it fall all the way. I had to tell her "no, you really do not want to see that" -When Majora said "let's play good guys and bad guys. You'll be the bad guy" she said to me "Wait, are you the bad guy now?" -I think the ending fight with majora scared her the most. She didn't run away or ask me to stop or anything, but she also wasn't saying anything and just intently watching it. -When "Dawn of a New Day" appeared, even though she can't quite read yet, she still reacted to it as if she knew what it meant even before I read it to her. -She thought the ending was sad because Link had to leave everyone. Which, I guess it was a little sad that way.

@majoraswrath6182 2 года назад

I feel like the Fierce Deity mask doesn't get the narrative credit it is due. It should be noted, you can ONLY get it if you have every single possible mask in game, and trade every single one off. To this end, it is a culmination and manifestation of every single mask. If the regular masks are the happiness, individuality, and lives of the people of termina made manifest, the Fierce Deity mask is a manifestation of their grief and anger (no accident that it's handed to you by the child wearing Mahora's mask.) To this end, it is extremely satisfying to then wear the mask and shred Majora because for that time, the will of Termina's people, all the people you helped gives you power, power far greater than Majora. This to me always was the final nail for MM's most prominant theme: That the small kindnesses, good deeds, and individual lives of people are the greatest and most important things in life.

@MrGeorgeFlorcus 3 года назад

I think that Majora's Mask is very much the "Toy Story 2" of the LoZ series; A direct sequel initially conceived primarily as a profit-motivated cash-grab, which was thankfully saved by a genuinely passionate and creative development team, who, despite a severe budget and time limitation, were able to pull off an eleventh-hour miracle and turn out an actually impressive piece of work. And while it is true that some of the finer details are lost on some, it is undeniable, in retrospect, that there is a great deal of artistic and emotional depth to this particular sequel that is occasionally missed by more cynical reviewers, especially amongst the ostensibly similar instalments that came both before and after.

One thing I noticed about Majoras Mask is with the Deku Mask. When you use the Goron Mask, people think you are Darmani. Same goes for the Zora Mask since people think you are Mikau. However, despite the Deku Mask coming from the deku butlers son, he never says you are his son. He just says you look like his son. Later on in the game, we see him crying because of his sons corpse. He already knew his son died. That's kinda sad.

I get emotional every time I think about this game. I grew up gay in an extremely small town (you can imagine how that was like) and the Zelda franchise was the biggest escape I had. I was always somewhat uncomfortable playing Majora’s Mask as a kid, but that’s what drew me to it. I knew there were things about this game that as a child I wasn’t meant to entirely understand just yet. Revisiting as a young adult, the symbolism of the game and the meanings of it hit me full force. I cried quite a bit replaying it. During college I was dealing with a lot of shame I had become conditioned to feel because of my sexual orientation, and I turned to heavy drinking to suppress it and other mental illnesses I was dealing with. It truly was this game that pulled me out of that and taught me the importance of healing. I made a lot of life changes following my revisiting of this game and I’m in a much happier place and I’m proud of my true self. I have the Song of Healing tattooed on me to always remind me that healing is a process and even if I almost “met with a terrible fate” I made it through and I’m stronger because of it 💙 I’m forever thankful for this game and franchise and they’ll always have my support. Bring on Tears of the Kingdom!!!

I've been a huge Zelda fan all my life, but one of the great joys about the series is that there is always something new to learn.

It's super creepy, but likely just a placeholder so the game designers didn't have to create 4 new faces.

@tbnwontpop8857 9 дней назад

Interestingly is that there's actually more to it than that. They ask if you want "to be a salesman too" when they ask you to part with some of your masks, so it's likely implied that they are indeed connected. The game really puts a big emphasis on the mystery factor of HMS so I wouldn't really rule things out as simply coincidence. Despite the limited development time they had, they did have a story they wanted to tell and it's up to interpretation, but they did drop some pretty strong hints that HMS is likely a spirit and Majora's Mask is deeply intertwined with his history and/or destiny.

@cheezemonkeyeater 3 года назад

"I love time management." Then you probably came up with a similar idea to me. See, I'm not super interested in doing speed runs, but with Majora's Mask, there's an alternative idea I love. Help the most people you can in a single 3-day cycle. Manage your time so that when you reach the end of the game and destroy Majora, you have saved or improved the lives of the maximum number of people possible. Now THAT pushes your time management skills to the limit.

@pluspiping 2 года назад

Agreed. I'm not one to obsess over optimizing a video game that I'm using to goof off and have fun, but at the end of every Majora's Mask run, I do a final 3-day challenge to beat all 4 bosses and re-help as many people as possible.

Cremia goes on about that it's weird how Romani finally lets her drink the Romani milk, as she doesn't ever let her drink it, just so Cremia doesn't feel the end of the world as much.

This is virtually everything that makes Majora's Mask my favorite Anything Ever, too. Agreed. EXCEPT I gotta disagree that restarting the 3 days creates a new timeline. For example, certain events do not reoccur after you complete them the first time. The Great Fairy in Clock Town knows you. Ghost Darmani does not appear again. Mikau's grave marker is already there in a new set of 3 days. Not coincidentally, what you receive from these events stays with you when you reset the 3 days. (And this might not be strictly canon, but in the remake the temple bosses ask to fight you again, suggesting they remember fighting you previously.) (If I'm remembering wrong, please let me know!) AND MOST IMPORTANTLY - even if you don't complete their specific sidequest in your last 3-day cycle, the people you helped in previous cycles are still shown as if you helped them in the end credits. Like. I know I certainly didn't have the time to fix all 5 Great Fairies AGAIN in the 3 day cycle before beating Majora & beating the game, but there they are in the ending credits. So I don't think you've created separate timelines. Rather, I think the Dawn Of a New Day slams together every 3-day cycle you've done so far. You asked the Goddess of Time to help you out, and I assume at the end, she's the one that slams it all together so that everyone remembers the times when they were helped. So Goddess of Time, thanks, girl.

I like to think that the Song of Healing never actually heals sorrows, but instead just calms them. Without any context, the Song of Healing feels much more like a serene piece to accompany a sunset. It feels like, if anything, the Song of Healing would give you inner-peace to live with sorrows rather than allowing them to go away entirely.

@rogue_2k374 Год назад

So an interesting theory about the song of healing is that Saria’s Song is the same song played backwards and that holds some level of significance to both worlds.

@betatalk64 Год назад

The Song of Healing to me was like this: I used to believe it healed wounds, but as time went on, I noticed that instead of healing anybody, it have them the courage to move on. That's what the song does, anytime you need to play it to progress, it's about sending someone into the afterlife, finally allowing them to move on. It's really a powerful song

@redstonewarrior0152 Год назад

The song does not provide physical healing, but it does provide a spiritual healing. Letting someone come to grips with their situation is a form of healing in it of itself.

@redstonewarrior0152 Год назад

@@rogue_2k374 Ehh... not quite. The only similarity between the song of healing and Saria's song when either is reversed would be the three repeating notes that the player plays. The rest of the two songs end up sounding nothing alike. If you only consider the six notes that start each song, then the two songs are a perfect match when reversed, but the entire rest of the two pieces share no similarities.

The saddest part of Majora’s Mask, to me, is that it is impossible to save everyone. Yes, you can slow down time and do as much as you can. But no matter how good a player you are, there is no feesable way to effectively complete every quest. No matter what you do, Romani will still be shattered from her cows being abducted, Anju and Kaife are still separated even though they love each other more then anything, the Gorons are still freezing to death in the cold. No matter what you do, there will still be those you failed to save.

@7wintersowl 3 года назад

I made fan art and fan theories, and spent hours trying to learn what I could about the lore and imagining things the game didn’t provide the answers to (for example, coming up with a non-canon backstory for the Fierce Deity and Majora).

I honestly always found Majora to be a much more terrifying villain than Ganon. Yes, Ganon had presence but with Majora you never knew why it wanted to destroy the world other than it just wanted to for shits-and-giggles. And when you finally face off against it you realize just how bizarre, disturbing and batshit insane this entity truly was. It was a being akin to a child who viewed the world as nothing more than its plaything and everything thing it did and wanted to do as just a game. Even your final fight with it was nothing more than a game of "Good Guys vs. Bad Guys" where you were the Bad Guy in its Eyes. And as you kept harming it more and more, the more crazy Majora became as it lashed out in a fit of rage akin to a bratty child throwing a temper tantrum when things don't go their way.

@Eleehas 3 года назад

Yup. At least Ganondorf has morals. He just wanted to be a ruler, seeing as how he didn't immediately kill off the other citizens and young Link. Hell, he was going to kill off Toon Link at first probably because of his mistake of leaving Young Link alive, but decided not to kill him nor Zelda at the end and just bring the land back. Majora literally wanted to see the people suffer. He most likely made the moon go down slower just to create fear seeing as how he made it go down faster when you actually face off with him. He just liked to fuck with random townsfolk like Kafei and destroy all life because he felt like it. Dude was a sadistic asshole lmao

@soulkibble1466 3 года назад

@@Eleehas what really sold it was that throughout the game you were just under the impression that these sadistic 'pranks' Skull Kid was doing was because the mask was influencing basically a child (which is true) but you learn in the end that Majora deliberately wanted its puppet to sow discord and chaos and seemed to find the notion of a weak pathetic creature like Skull Kid trying to use its powers amusing but didn't hesitate to discard him once he outlived his usefulness. Like a child throwing away a toy it has grown bored of.

I really love the message of this game that in the face of impending doom, the small kindnesses we can show one another aren't irrelevant; they are most important in those last moments. In OoT, the sidequests can seem like trivial (and welcome) distractions in the face of the sweeping epic quest before us. In Majora's mask I was at first frustrated by how my progress on the main quest seemed to be locked behind this huge wall of trivial sidequests. But then I realised what the game was saying to me: "the mundane trivialities of these people's lives aren't distractions, they're the whole point. Their lives have value and they're what you're here to save." Once you embrace that personal perspective and really get to know the people of Termina, you aren't trying to be a big hero to save the whole world, you're doing something much more meaningful which is to save people you care about and show kindness to those who need it. Majora's Mask is dark, but its message is about the value of kindness and love and hope in the face of grief and depair. It's an important message and one that feel particularly poignant in current times.

@NitroNinja324 2 года назад

In a way, I say it encourages you, or more specifically Link, to grow into a better hero. Sure he was brave enough to fight Gannon and he was strong enough to win, but not for a moment do you feel compelled to save the world because you care about it. It's simply your "destiny" as the Hero of Time. The only time I felt like going out of my way to help someone in OoT was with Malon and Epona. In MM, you're not a hero because you were chosen by destiny. You're a hero because you help people, and eventually, save them.

@pluspiping 2 года назад

"the mundane trivialities of these people's lives aren't distractions, they're the whole point. Their lives have value and they're what you're here to save." 👈THIS RIGHT HERE The contrast between being The Big Hero vs. The Guy Trying To Help Out is so defined going from OOT to MM, and it's one of my favorite parts of the whole experience. Philosophically speaking, I want to dig into that theme of kindness just a bit more. I want to draw the distinction between "we are here to be nice to each other" (we're not) and "we are here to be kind to each other". Anju's mom is nice, until she feels like she doesn't have to be, because how dare Kafei act that way. The player is encouraged to be kind to Gorman the Troupe Leader, despite his nasty behavior, and in return he apologizes and reconnects with his own feelings & the people around him. That's kindness. That's love. That's hope. You can't stop people from being mean (see: his brothers), but you can still help out, and you can still be kind, and move on from there.

Every time you help someone, someone else is in trouble.

The real majora are the sidequest,and this video does an amazing job explaining why.

@chrisdippertheirateshitter2653 3 года назад

AVGN didn't like it because of the controls and bad camera which is fine if he didn't praise Ocarina of Time at the same time which has the same amount of problems as Majora's Mask and more since Majora's Mask is a better refined and smoothed out OOT.

Oh my god. I love that you used Chugga’s “DONT DROWN!” from the Ikana Castle video. When I started really getting into Zelda, I started watching him while playing because I liked his style and he’s since become one of my favorite Let’s Players. Kinda hoping he replays the game just for fun. That was a good series.

But the swordsman shaking and hiding in fear, with that music in the background. I busted out the Ocarina and reset the clock out of some weird sense of mercy. Like I couldn't put them through that fate. I had forgotten that it was a video game for a moment.

That's pretty dumb if they are beavers. I mean, they're beavers, I'm not exactly gonna want to hate them as the player, so why would the writers have beavers as villains? That's stupid I love this game but beavers don't make intimidating villains lol.

The part where Darmani has a vision of the Gorons, all crowding round him and cheering for him... that's an incredibly powerful moment. Back in 2000, as a kid, I remember thinking, "This game is as good as a movie.".

@linkthepig4219 3 года назад

Funny, I feel people bring up gorons a lot when revisiting Majora's Mask, but personally I found the mountain to be interesting, but not as rich or scary as the other areas at all. I genuinely forget the name of Darmani quite a lot, and this isn't because the goron section is dull, it's because the other sections are so much deeper in themes. Another thing... the scene with the little girl in Ikana valley seemed kind of mediocre and uninteresting to me, I remember Ikana mostly for it's dungeons. Romani being kidnapped/given a drink, the monkey being tortured, Mikau's tragic death and the Deku Butler's son always stood out to me more, probably because I care about the non-human characters and established human characters more than randomly thrown in children.

Also, something I noticed you didn't really touch on was the music. The MUSIC. The music is so amazing for this game. Koji Kondo usually makes really great soundtracks but I feel this is his magnum opus. Such a feeling of emptiness and melancholy but also really upbeat at certain times to hide the darkness of Termina. Every song feels like a masterpiece in it's own right, especially the Song of Healing (god i love that song to death). But other than that, great video!

@1WEareBUFO1 3 года назад

The zora's were 1000 times more elaborate in this. Other zelda games : " we swim. We be fish" majora's mask: "we are a people of great artistic culture and history. And our temple is an alternative energy Mecca."

@FirstNameLastName-oz5ij 2 года назад

One thing I absolutely love about Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time is that the music isn't merely in the background. You as the player actively engage in the music by learning to play the notes to some of the songs in the game. In Ocarina of Time, you don't only hear Zelda's Lullaby whenever Zelda is onscreen. You play it yourself in order to open up areas that would be otherwise impossible to enter. In Majora's Mask, you don't merely hear the Song of Healing whenever you encounter a tragic cutscene. You play the Song of Healing yourself to heal broken souls. Having music being a part of the gameplay instead of simply in the background adds to the memorability of an already fantastic soundtrack. I know other Zelda games have this to some extent (i.e. howling in Twilight Princess, or the Wind Waker in the Wind Waker), but I'd argue that the N64 games implemented this concept the best simply because you can play more than just the notes you are required to play for the songs you learn in the game. If you've ever seen PuppetMaster9's ocarina compilations where he plays songs from various other medias on the in-game ocarina in Majora's Mask 3D, you'll know what I'm talking about. I remember spending probably hours trying to learn to play songs from other video games as well on the in-game instruments. It's a small addition, but it is something that I very much appreciate.

@thisisfyne 3 года назад

Majora's Mask is my favourite game as well even though I DON'T like to manage time. But it's so effective for the story it tells and directly affects YOU, the player, instead of simply telling you that things are urgent. YOU know it. You FEEL it. It's constantly there, in your mind - and in the sky above (or below, holy shit!). And everything you do in the game is undone until YOU can successfully traverse time and space to put an end to the cycle. All the hardships you've overcome and the people you've helped (the dark tone really bring home the suffering of the inhabitants of Termina) was for nothing if you don't bring the quest to an end. The time loop is both a catalyst for action AND a reassuring mechanic that tells you you can try things as many time as you need to. Day 3 is just as exhilarating as Day 1 feels safe and cozy. Playing the song of time after a long stretch of challenges couldn't be more satisfying. OOT is an epic tale. But MM speaks to you personally. It's nothing short of brilliant, really.

Thank goodness not every studio is Team Ico. (I love Shadow of the Colossus but. y'know.) But seriously, it goes to show how a short deadline can prevent the final product from being too overpolished to the point of rounding off any interesting peculiarities. And Majora's Mask is certainly a game with a lot of peculiarities. It asked "what if a game did this crazy stuff" and then it did it. I shudder to think how much of it would be removed or revamped to be unrecognizable, in the name of "improving it" to "increase sales" in a longer development cycle.
