Title: Guilty pleasures
Post by: DW on December 24, 2006, 06:40:30 PM
Ok, I wanna see how many guilty pleasures we can find in TP. what these are pretty much are mean things you do to have fun. For instance, in Windwaker I threw the pigs off Windfall into the ocean. In pretty much every other game, hitting cuccoos is mentioned thousands of times.

One of the guilty pleasures I found is during the mounted boss fight, when you are running around hyrule field and the boss jumps over the wall, don't jump it, just run into it. All the boars following you crash into the wall and their riders go flying. It's funny.

You can't, but he throws some rocks at the beehive and they sting him.  ;D

Nice. I just thought of a guilty pleasure I wish we could do. You know the guy on MM who is always eating magic beans? Let's just give him a drink of water to wash those down...

Not really a "guilty pleasure", but something I find quite amusing to think of. You know the bridge to Hyrule that's missing and you need 1000 rupees for its repairs? It doesn't look like it's just broken, but like it is warped away by the Twilight gates. So, where is it? Where did they drop it?  ;)

I also find it amusing to use the Spinner as often as possible. I can't understand Link doesn't feel the need to throw up.

Hmm...Maybe it was also warped to the desert, and sunk? It could have been warped way before the bridge of Eldin, because the Eldin bridge had just been warped and only part of it was under,but who knows how long the North Hyrule bridge was there...

Or if it's merely just shooting arrows through people, it makes you feel better, if the game is frustrating you.  :)

I like making Hena mad by rolling into the walls at her place...so has anybody tried the boar thing yet?
Title: Re:Guilty pleasures
Post by: Vaati on December 28, 2006, 12:47:30 PM
No, but I want to. Also, I like hitting the goats at Ordon Ranch with my sword, I dodge them whenever they come close to hitting me.
Title: Re:Guilty pleasures
Post by: DW on December 28, 2006, 01:00:35 PM
They haven't even come close to hitting me. I like swinging my sword at the kids and observing their lightning fast reflexes. hey...Zelda ripped of the Matrix!I also like beating up the dummies and smashing their heads
Title: Re:Guilty pleasures
Post by: Vaati on December 28, 2006, 01:08:50 PM
The kids react to that?! I should try it!

Whooping Epona is fun.
Title: Re:Guilty pleasures
Post by: DW on December 28, 2006, 01:15:16 PM
when I get stuck in the field after the boar knights knock me off, I shoot Epona with an arrow really fast as I ran towards her, that way she speeds up as soon as I get on, I know i's cruel, but my life is at steak, and if I die, she's done for. So if you think about it, it's for her own good.

I like to run through town and scare people, espeacially the people singing. They're just singing all happily, La Dee Da, then I come up to them, they stop singing for a second, then scream and hide their head with their hands. Hee hee!  :D

You can also make the goats stampede then z target them when they charge you and grab their horns and throm them aside.

THE CAVE OF ORDEALS
Title: Re:Guilty pleasures
Post by: Mysterious F. on January 12, 2007, 02:15:41 PM
That isn't the right bridge, the bridge you're thinking of is northwest (northeast is Wii), and called the Bridge of Eldin (the province). The bridge for 1000 rupees repairs is the one directly east (west in Wii) of Castle Town and the opposite direction of Kakariko. You need to have the 1000 rupees to repair it.

As for fixing Eldin, in the southwestern (eastern in Wii) part of the desert, south of the cliff where those Moblin things attacked you right before you entered the fort thing, their is a stone structure standing strait up. Right when you reach it, the 3 Shadow Beings attack you. After that, Midna can warp the bridge back to Eldin any time.

Also, once you remove it, you can enter a cave similar to the bottomless cave full of monsters in TWW (Outset Island). Every once in a while, you reach a part where the Queen Fairy sends fairies to a spring (sacred spirit springs (remember the Golden Bugs?), and possibly the springs in Kakariko and Death Mountain). If you meet her, that means you must get the item in the next dungeon available to go on. Also, she can warp you out anytime you're with her.
Title: Re:Guilty pleasures
Post by: Zelda Veteran on January 13, 2007, 10:12:55 AM
SPOILER

After you beat the last floor of the bottomless dungeon, A Fairy Queen will appear at every fairy spring loaction on the map. Every time you talk to her, she will give you Fairy's tears, which restore all of your life, and give you double attack power for a short time. You can only carry one bottle of the stuff at a  time though

SPOILER ENDS HERE

Yeah, but the bottomless pit in TP is WAYYYY harder than the one in Wind Waker though! I escaped with only a half of a heart left! And i went in with bottles of fairies! :-X

Don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but anyway.  Ride one of the evil pigs to the edge of a cliff.  Stop.  Dismount.  Shoot with an arrow or stab with a sword and watch it go for a tumble.

I like to steal from that blue bird with the big head's shop in the South Faron Woods. (I think it's south, it's the store right outside the Forest Temple) I just go up and get Red potion or lantern oil and the bird expects you to pay afterwards. But I just run off with it and all he say is "Stop!" or something. And if you come near him again, he'll peck at you, which only takes away 1/4 of a heart. So which would you rather do? Have to pay for it or get free stuff and only get 1/4 of a heart taken away? I for one, would choose the free stuff, and 1/4 of a heart gone.

Goats + great spin.

I also enjoy doing the waterfall game as a wolf before Zora's Domain is unfrozen.

And stealing from Trill. And just riding off the edge with a boar, so much fun. 8D

And eating Maggots and never taking off the Zora armour, especially in Snowhead temple. 8D

I have more guilty pleasures in OoT. Dx What with the hilarious screams and all, I find new ways to cause said sound. 8D

Oh yeah, that was funny.

Also in LttP there is a way to make Link fall until you die.

I liked smashing the suits of armor too, and also fighting the boar riders. Also the old western shoot-out in the hidden village rocks!

Yeah, I left the archers alive and ran around in circles, screaming at the top of my lungs with all the fire arrows flying by me. My mom wondered if I was okay ;)

I did that in Zora armour in Arbiter's Grounds. I didn't have the magic armour at the time, and I was running around trying to find the one with a key before my faeries got wasted.. xD

Oh, another guilty pleasure of mine is doing the snow temple in Zora armour. ;D And doing the cave of ordeals, no shield, ordon sword, three hearts, zora armour, nothing in my bottles, and so on and so forth.

Now THAT would be fun to go through the Cave of Ordeals with. xD And whenever fire touched it, it would burn. Then... you're left with nothing.

Oh, the other day, replaying the game (for the third time, haha) I found out Link makes funny noises when thrown into lava by streams of FIYAH.

...My abuse of Link scares me. XD

Yes, Fisk, you have some things to work out....It is amusing to listen to all his screams of terror though....


Does that make us bad people?

I like throwing him into the quicksand as a wolf, Midna makes that funny noise and watches. XD "Oh gods, he went and got drowned in quicksand AGAIN? Ugh..."

It's nothing compared to OOT Link. I think if they were real and met me, I'd be impaled almost immediately. owo;
