How the fuck were you supposed to figure out how to spawn this thing back in the day?
>>
By having esoteric knowledge of Japanese culture by being fucking Japanese while playing a game for Japanese audiences.
>>
>>732277436
does the folklore include cutting grass while wearing a yellow mask?

This was before using a guide was frowned upon, guides were literally encouraged. Use the fucking guide, baby.

it wasn't necessary to complete the game, it was hidden and meant to be something discovered and discussed among your peers, things like that used to be exciting for fans of games, the dragon quest series is full of secrets like that as well, which probably inspired things like the keaton spirit in majoras mask, that sense of discovery died with the internets birth (also sold some strategy guides as well)
>>
There's a gossip stone that talks about Keatons playing with grass.
>>
>>732277965
no, you're not upset because it's japanese specifically. you're upset because someone suggested that a homogeneous people with their own culture and their own products for their own audiences might possibly not be the worst thing in the world.
as an american living in a country that does not care about you, this makes you seethe with rage.

you are truly buckbroken

>>732278136
those hints were so obscure
>>
>>732277395
They added optional things like that to make you buy the guide, to encourage re-playability and for playground discussions to act as a form of word of mouth advertising
>>
>>732278930
They all either give you information on where a mask is or something like the stock pot inn's 2nd floor door being left unlocked. There's not really anything obscure about them.
>>
>>732278469
yet they sell this game international

NTA but I am.
>Had to fill out some government documentation
>Am actually a spic but for some reason it wasn't there, just other browns
>Pick asian
>Official government docs have me as a spic asian now
So I did become japanese.

>>732277395
Those masks ended up being so disappointing in Majoras Mask
>>
>>732279271
maybe i was thinking of the ocarina ones
>>
>>732279754
Yeah those are mostly flavor text with only a couple giving you any real information which is mostly useless.
>>
>>732277395
The Bombers tell you :
- Have you seen any rustling grass around Termina? I hear that's where Keatons like to hide. I wonder what you have to do to lure one out...
- I've seen a real Keaton near the slide!
>>
>>732277395
Literally everyone who played Majora's Mask used a guide. NEWSFLASH: some games were made to sell strategy guides. Even though this was well into the time where you could also just look up solutions online, strategy guides usually had pictures to help you along.
>>
>>732280035
do they really? never seen this
>>
>>732277395
I can't even remember how I knew. I was too stupid to look something up at the time, so there must have been a decent hint in game.
