HEY!

Which is the "true" version of OoT?
Regular or Master Quest?
I'm asking because I was talking to a guy at work who made a big deal out of Breath Of The Wild being the first time Link is right-handed, but that's not actually true. He's right-handed in OoT's Master Quest.

He was also right-handed in Skyward Sword, so tell your friend he's retarded.

He's also right-handed in the Wii version of TP and in SS. He shouldn't have been right-handed in BotW imo.

>They're all the same Link, guys.

how do you even notice this shit let alone fucking care about it
you guys have autism

t. the guy at work proven wrong

No one here thinks that. It's debatable whether he's reincarnating or it's a chain of descendants, but there have only been a couple of times where the same Link was in more than one game.

Master Quest Link is right-handed because the world is mirrored.
TP (Wii) and SS Link are right-handed because of the motion controls.
BotW has no excuse except that Nintendo just forgot Link was left-handed or decided to retcon it for no reason.

>Master Quest Link is right-handed because the world is mirrored.
Unless the Master Quest is the true version, in which case the regular quest's world is mirrored.

>excuse
I don't know, maybe the guy is simply right handed?

OoT is the true version of OoT how is this even a discussion

Lots of games have you play a second time or on a harder difficulty to get the "true ending". Yeah, I know the MQ ending is the same, but having to unlock the harder "true" version is a pretty common thing, really.

And yet they're implying it is by being aspies about what hand link should consistently use.

Yeah that is common, but not the case here. Is there anything at all that would indicate MQ as the true version? It was released later.

Regular

Master Quest may be more difficult but the level design feels like something out of a romhack rather than something coherent and flowing like the original dungeon designs

Regular is the left handed timeline
Master Quest is the right handed timeline.

>googles
Well shit.
I always thought it was unlockable in the original. I never played it on N64 because I hated that controller, I also thought the Master Quest was a thing on the older 2D Zelda games, but Google just proved me wrong on that, too.
Guess my friend isn't the only retard at my job...

It pisses me off more than it probably should that BotW Link is right handed.

I get why SS Link was, I don't like it but it makes sense, but BotW doesn't have the same excuse.

He's ambidextrous.

Are you clinically retarded?

isnt he ambidextrous in the gameboy games?

Right-handed Links are just the ones who are fucking with their foes. C'mon guys.

Maybe in LA, but I don't think so in the Oracle games, and definitely not in Minish Cap.

In Link's Awakening yes.

No shit Sherlock.
Also, n64 original > 3DS butchering

SS because motion controls taken into account would leave right-handed guys switched. BoTW is about the same thing if you use both joycons, not a perfect excuse but that would probably be Aounuma's decision

Master Quest was originally intended to be released as an expansion pack for OoT that would use the N64DD. Also the 3DS version of Master Quest is the only version that mirrors the overworld, the original GCN version of Master Quest only mirrored the dungeons and Link took normal damage.

Who is this?

Master Quest is a shitty excuse for Hard Mode OoT, it sacrifices good dungeon design in favor of unintuitive puzzles

>shoot the random painting in the wall to make it drop a key
>bomb an invisible wall to reveal a chest
>use the Lens of Truth in a very specific spot to reveal a passage, then shoot the random spot on the wall to make a chest appear
>go back to Castle Town, buy a bombchu, go back to the dungeon you were stuck and use it in a very specific spot to activate a switch

Ironically, the game only becomes harder because the damage is doubled, the puzzles are actually much easier once you figure out the pattern of these stupid solutions

Wrong about the GC.
The dungeons are not mirrored, but solutions and order of things are completely overhauled. Cows in Jabujabu is one of the more legendary examples of added mindfuck.

>Start to think about how it's strange that it already seems so foreign of a concept to release this limited special edition disc that includes a redesigned version of an old game and trailers for upcoming games
>Realize that The Wind Waker was released 14 years ago

Yeah, it is clearly meant for someone who is already familiar with the game and needs some added mindfuck not present in the original game to feel challenged

Don't forget
>play Song Of Time in random places to make blocks appear
>use Din's Fire to light torches on the other side of a wall to make a door open
>blow up a cow to open a door
(unless that last one is the bombchu you mentioned, in which case you missed the fact that there's a bombchu in that room, which you get by shooting a cow in the face with a slingshot)

I'm not sure if you have a slingshot at that point, but yeah, if you run out of bombchus, you gotta buy more in town

You get the slingshot in the Deku Tree, so yeah you have it in Jabujabu's belly.
Unless maybe you can miss it and still finish the Deku Tree, but that would make Gohma a LOT harder to kill.

You still get all the same dungeon items in MQ, so you should have the slingshot by the time you can get bomb items. I didn't think MQ was that obtuse, but I hated how it overused the Song of Time for block puzzles.

>Deku nut
>Stick jump attack
Easy

oh yeah, I completely forgot about that, I thought the first gadget was the boomerang

Why the fuck WERE those cows in there? Sacrifices from the Zora to appease their God?

I first played the GCN copy that came with Master Quest. Since it was my brother's he wouldn't let me make a save file on the normal disc, so I'd only ever played Master Quest until the 3DS version. I have a lot of issues playing the base game.

who fucking cares if he's right or left handed
it's like dobson crying about the pink hair

You can skip the Deku Tree altogether if you count glitches.
