The final battle against Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time is something that doesn't need an introduction. Beast Ganon shook our confidence as he knocked the Master Sword out of our hands. But when I played around in this scenario as a kid, I set my eyes on something different... The silly fire barrier that surrounds the arena. It is by far one of the most absurd things in Zelda and I'm hear today to tell you why. Along the way we'll cover a lot of other neat things too, so I hope you'll enjoy!

I dunno, I think the most powerful magic in OoT is the window in the Pedestal of Time room. Couldn’t ganondorf see through that window and look right at the master sword?

@Alex-95-Gaming 4 года назад

I'm just imagining Ganondorf pressed up against a normal glass window, staring longingly at the Master Sword, and be like "Why can't I get to you?!"

Maybe Ganondorf just assumed that nobody would be that stupid, as to put the master sword in a room with windows.

@callmeclover6512 3 года назад

Seems unwise, but explains why Zelda doesn't just throw the sword. Battles over The Fate Of The World are not appropriate places for character development Zelda!

@spaceangelmewtwo9074 Год назад

Or maybe Ganon created the fire barrier and Zelda doesn't toss the Master Sword back because she's not the sword's chosen wielder and therefore can't pull it out of the ground without dying as seen in BotW.

Link has a much more powerful magic at his disposal, allowing him to warp from Kokiri Forest straight to the credits. How about that? Or if you leave glitches aside, what about the Triforce and the Golden Realm? What about going seven years forward and backward in time? What about the gods sinking the entire world under water?

@wintersong2266 4 года назад

I can't believe they didn't bought back the concept of scaling Ganon for Breath of The Wild. A game where scaling things is so important. It would have made the Dark Beast Ganon fight so much more interesting.

Master mode is a much better challenge for more experienced players, and is recommended especially because of a entirely new layout. You can play master mode in either the 3D version, or by getting the GCN ROM.

@Kaitri 4 года назад

link with the triforce of courage: fears nothing and can overcome pretty much anything ganondorf with the triforce of power: the universe he exists in, he gains almost godly powers and brings darkness to the entire world. ... zelda with the triforce of wisdom: she can open the doors in ganons collapsing tower. if i was ganon, id capture link as a child/at the beginning of his journey when he lacks the experience and equipment to defeat me. and then zelda is someone who clearly has no use out of her triforce and cant do shit. ps: its weird that the devs made the barrier extend downwards. its common that loadzones and barriers extend upwards forever. but downwards? thats a new one. especially when you cant even get below it.

@greatduck5297 4 года назад

Actually based on the way it behaves, it probably isn’t an actual “barrier” in the usual sense. It probably just checks whether link is more than r distance from the center of the level. It would be the cheapest way to do it, and far easier.

Might be that the magic barrier requires Ganon/Ganondorf to remain inside it to power it or focus it. Kind of like a “Compel Duel” spell meant to force a fight to happen. Also, pride. Why would the Gerudo King of Evil be scared away by some scrawny teenager wearing tights?

When I was about 9 or 10 and I finally made it to Ganon, the final boss, I was disappointed that I was unable to explore the area surrounding the battlegrounds. For some reason the entirety of it looked a lot smaller than I thought it should due to the castle interior feeling so huge in comparison, but I was still infatuated with the background of the final boss fight and always wondered what it would be like. Thanks for finally demystifying a part of Ocarina of Time that 10 year old me had always revisited repeatedly out of pure curiosity. Stay awesome SwankyBox!
