THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: THE MISSING LINK REVIEW



 

So I finished the new Ocarina of Time patch-expansion. The Legend of Zelda: The Missing Link and I'd have to say, that was a really great Zelda expirience.

First of all, the story is a direct sequel taking place after Ocarina of Time and right before Majora's Mask. A journey of Link, to find a Fairy-capturing demon who lives in the Deep Woods and destroy him so he can protect his friend, Navi, who left him at the Temple of Time, right after the seal of Ganondorf in the future.

So the lore is great. Saria makes a huge appearance (NO SPOILERS), the Deep Woods before Termina look amazing and the whole "Zelda atmosphere" is right there. It's a great followup to the original game and it could literally be a DLC, if DLCs existed back in late 90's.

As for the gameplay, it is a great expirience, with great music, really good puzzles and some fighting using the Sword Beam (which was missing from the 3D Zelda games until Skyward Sword), nice mini-quests to drive the story and even an all-new Item which works perfectly in this world.

I beat the game in about 3-4 hours so that was my only dissapointment (being so small of a game). It left me with a sense of completion but also with a "hunger" for more.

After beating this game my Quest Log was looking like this:

6 hearts, 3 Deaths, Kokiri Sword, Hero's Shield, Kokiri Boots, Ocarina of Time, 30 Deku Sticks, 20 Deku Nuts, 20 Bombchus, 1 bottle (There must be another one I never found) and the new item I won't spoil for the people who will play it.

I recommend it to every one of you to give it a try. You can really finish it in one or two sessions (considering how much of a Zelda veteran you are) and it will leave you this sweet feeling of nostalgia and hope we will see more projects like that in the future

THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: DAWN AND DUSK REVIEW

Εικόνα
  I finished the Ocarina of Time romhack-expansion Loz: Dawn and Dusk and I can say it was good. Not "Missing Link"-kind of good, but good overall.   First I wanna say things I liked about it: 1. The textures were well-made, the music covered nicely the whole eerie atmosphere of this new country and its dark history. 2. I loved the intro of the game explaining the story of this new land and its amazing artwork. It made me want to find out more about this land. I always liked Zelda games that were taking place in other lands and countries except Hyrule, making me to want to learn about this place and its inhabidants. 3. The Red Cavern Dungeon was really challenging and thought out by the creators. I really enjoyed it and got frustrated at the same time. Although its boss can be killed in one hit, but I can live with that. 4. There were nice puzzles all over the land, which were optional. You can finish the whole game without getting all the heart pieces, the metal

ZELDA-CEBO #1: BLUE FIRE REVIEW

Εικόνα
  Hello fellow Zelda fans. Long time no read. I’d like to introduce you to this new section of my blog, “Zelda-cebo” which is a placebo treatment for us Zelda fans that want to play some Zelda inspired games since we may have finished every Zelda game out there (official or mod). So the first episode of “Zelda-cebo” will introduce you to a 2021 game that I had the opportunity to play and finish recently, named “Blue Fire”. So what is “Blue Fire”? It’s a fast-paced, action adventure platform, puzzle, dark fantasy, game. In more simple words it’s a game that you would take if you combined Zelda, Hollow Knight and Dark Souls. As far as the story goes Blue Fire takes place in the desolate kingdom of Penumbra, a land consumed by dark forces. The kingdom was once a prosperous land, but has been overrun by malevolent force and it’s up to our hero to save his world. Now as always let’s get into my review about the things I liked and the things that I would change about the game.
