Behold, Majora's Mask. The ultimate Autumn game. Say something about it.
>>
>>722352017
I said say something about it...
>>
>>722352017
I appreciate its morose and slightly creepy environment. Ultimately it was just more Ocarina of Time with a few neat tricks, and at the time, that was exactly what I wanted
>>
never played it
>>
>>722352017
The 3DS version was really shit, but the Gamecube port was completely fucked, and I don't think I even have the RCA cables for my old Nintendo 64 because I always connected it with RF.
>>
>>722353269
What's wrong with the GC version?
>>
yes
>>
>>722353269
Just play the recomp. You can also get a retrotink+cables or one of those n64 hdmi mod kits if you still want the original hardware.
But as somebody who still has his n64 and majora copy I just play the pc ports now a days.
>>
>>722352017
It's got such strong autumn vibes despite being set in spring.
>>
>>722353527
I know it's known for random crashes sometimes, but other than that Idk what the issue is.
>>
>>722354428
>set in spring
Say it aint so.
>>
>>722353527
Full of bugs and other issues. It makes the switch NSO version look like a masterpiece.

I liked the 3ds version

It plays very differently to OOT.
It's "more OOT" in the same way that Super Mario 3D World is "more SM64".
ie: it's not

>bad game is le good ackshually
>gigachad.jpg
Get new material.
>>
>>722352017
It has more interesting lore than anything to do with Ganon or Hylia
>>
>>722356237
Hence the "with a few neat tricks". Try to keep up junior

YOU HAD

ONE

JOB

>>722356080
I patched the 3DS version to be good.
>>
>>722352017
That's not pic related
>>
>>722352017
something about it
/thread
>>
>>722354851
technically yeah. Since the extended winter is mentioned by the snowhead inhabitants (even if the winter is only long because the mask/goht)
>>
>>722358390
TP fucking blows
it tried so hard to be oot 2, it ended up lacking its own identity while ruining what could have been a good original story.
>>
>>722358027
What?
>>
>>722352017
It's carried a little much by its atmosphere, but it's so good that I'm willing to still say I love the game despite its flaws. The gimmick is genius and it's a shame we rarely get sequels that go this direction nowadays.
>>
>>722352017
Really? I’ve never once played Majora’s Mask in the Fall.
>>
>>722352017
It's pretty fun
>>
>>722360420
What is the American name for autumn?
>>
>>722360620
Risk is a slur in corporate offices these days. Nintendo would never make an experimental sequel like this anymore, as shown by TOTK just being BOTW 2.
>>
>>722361906
>Risk is a slur in corporate offices these days.
Because a game back then costed 50 times less than a modern game to make
Do retrotards ever take into consideration this when yapping?
>>
>>722362109
Maybe studios shouldn't have inflated their dev times and budgets through the roof? This is a self inflicted problem.

>>722352017
>The ultimate Autumn game
Why does this feel right?

That's not Radiata Stories or Fable.

>>722361138
americans use both fall and autumn

It has the most fun and engaging side quests.

I started playing Harvester, and it definitely is up there when it comes to fall atmosphere. Even though I really like the schizo writing, I'm worried I might get filtered by the "gameplay".

Right, but there was a perfectly good opportunity for a fall pun that completely went to waste. We must be better punsters!
>>
>>722352017
>Autumn game
>Has Winter zone, has Desert zone, has summer beach zone, has Swamp

????
>>
>>722352017
>Everyone ITT thinks a game can't be fall coded unless it literally takes place during that season
Embarrassing really
>>
I'll be honest I never actually gave much thought to Majora's Mask being an 'autumn' game. If anything I guess I thought each of the four areas corresponded to a different season entirely
>Summer = Ikana
>Fall = Swamp
>Winter = Mountains
>Spring = Bay
I just thought it had those vibes. What makes it a 'Autumn' game in general to you?
>>
>>722367330
I guess a scarecrow (or two) is a prominent character.
Moon kinda looks like a jack o lantern
>>
>>722352017
I recently finished a 100% replay, still the best Zelda game, will never be topped especially now that 3d Zelda will never be good again
>>
>>722352017
The best part about this game is the transformation masks. You get radically different gameplay mechanics suited for different environments. It was fun
>>
>>722367330
Well besides the game literally releasing in autumn its tone is in line with games you'd play around halloween. In japan it was advertised as "zelda goes horror" during commercials. I don't necessarily agree with it being a "horror" game, but halloween in general would be the one holiday I'd associate it with if I had to pick one.
In terms of seasons I don't think any of the locations actually are fall/autumn based, but then again neither is something like luigis mansion.
>>
>>722352017
Mediocre game carried by admittedly very strong writing.
>>
>>722352017
Boring trash. Old games were good for the time, but they're garbage when measured against modern-age standards for gameplay design.
