I kept falling off the race track (oh god do I hate mario kart for this reason) and doesn't she provide a piece of heart?

You'll get a bottle with gold dust.

Why the fcuk did they change the position of the banker in game whats the purpose.
Also i really miss the old fashion clock than the new digital one. Since the first couple of hours in game i have noticed that nintendo tried to make the game easier than the N64 one.
Kind of take the magic from it, but i can understand that a lot of people find it hard in the first place.
But still it would be nice to have 2 modes or someting like that.
On the bright side i really loved the light blue backround during the horse chase scene instead of the fog effect of the N64.
What is your opinion?

The banker is more conveniently placed now. When you soar, you appear right next to the banker, so you can deposit money immediately and then use Song of Time. Or if you soar there because you need to collect some money. You won't have to run to West Clock Town each time.

No, they dont automatically save on sd, though it prompts you to do it if you want.
The main thing of the camera is to take a picture of a special someone........... i dont want to spoil that for you and return the picture to the photo guy whom will award you with something nice.
Btw i have finished this game over of 7-8 times and i didn't know till yesterday that the photo guy is Tingle's father, omg

The Deku King works too and I find that easier since he's nearby.

Also do not try to deposit 0 rupees, something bad will happen

Odd, I did that by accident a couple of times and nothing bad happened.

There are a lot of surprising changes. I'm not quite sure how I feel about it yet. I think the most disappointing one I've heard of so far is swimming behavior with the Zora mask on. I, like others, loved the heck out of some zora swimming.

This. It's impossible to control now. I can't remember it being that way in the original.

chartube12 The gold dust is also needed to get the best weapon in the game, which you can do right now with a simple trading sequence with the blacksmith. Just need 100 rupees and the gold dust (oh and it needs to be started at day 1 since it takes two nights to forge both upgrades)

That's really an odd bad change. You are forced to use magic to swim fast.. logic? They changed his combat moves too - also, not in a good way.

The goron attacks comes superfast now.

The deku shrub water jumping was nerfed too, you can't spin into the water to get a boost no more, and jumping to the next lily pad takes more jumps as a result

Really? I think it got nerved a bit - but it's still possible.

By the way: Finished everything - such a great game! There were some changes I did not like that much, but overall the 3DS version is the better one in my opinion. This time I did not finish Majora with the 4th transformation mask - and it did actually "feel" a bit better, not that rushed. Even if the bosses in the game are not sparkling with any new ideas (Okay, that giant fight was a nice little idea, but could be done better).

But I would not say Majora is a boss anyway.. it's more for the expression of the character Majora and to bring the overall story to an end.

But, glitches. 4th day is like a infinite loop.

I just beat the game today, and I have to say, it was the most enjoyable Zelda I've played in awhile. It was trickier than the average Zelda, more challenging, and more interesting than the standard "eh bruh, Ganon is sort of fucking stuff up again" storyline.

The points mentioned:

1) Zora swimming: I honestly did not find this difficult. You already swim faster just holding the "A" button, and otherwise you can get infinite magic every three day stretch just by collecting 200 rupees in town and buying the expensive milk after getting the Romani mask if you just have to have the barrier on. Sure, you won't get the entire first day to do what you need to, but the dungeons can generally be beaten in about two days anyways. Besides that, even when doing the Great Bay Temple, I wasn't exactly hard pressed for magic, and I went in there without infinite magic. Honestly, I prefer the ability using magic anyways. It would be kind of OP if it didn't.

2) Bottles: I had no issues bottle collecting. You get one for helping Koume, another from the waterfall beavers which you can get to after getting the hookshot from the pirate fortress, one for doing the Kafei side quest, one with the gold dust from the Goron racetrack, one for helping the Troupe Leader, and I believe you get another for helping Romani on day one, plus one more for doing Koume's target game. I was up to five bottles after getting the one from the waterfall, and I hadn't gotten the one from the Kafei side quest or the Troupe Leader side quest yet. Basically, just talk to people and do things. If you need hints for what's available, speak to the Bombers in town. They'll give you rumor info that doesn't quite give all the details, but points you towards the next activity of note based on your progress, masks, and items.

3) Goron Racing: It's actually pretty easy. Just stay near the center of the track and bump other Gorons before they can bump you. Hit magic pots regularly, and in the final rounded stretch, stick to the inside and even if you are in last, you should easily get into first by the finish line as long as you aren't far behind. I just barely got first both times I ended up doing the race, but first is first.

With that said, if you get the Fierce Deity mask, do not use it in the final fight. You will regret it simply because it drains all difficulty from the fight and whittles it down to about a minute including the transition phases.

Anyways, side questing is important in this game. This isn't like other Zelda games where the side quests are few, generally straight forward, and something done pretty much exclusively for heart pieces (although with 52 of the bastards, quite a bit of the side quests do result in a heart piece). You do have to explore, see different things at different times on different days, and use some thinking to figure out when and how things can be done. Worst comes to worst, pop open a guide. This isn't too terribly different than the N64 version, and a few guides have already documented 3DS specific changes.

Just noticed there is a nintendo gamecube on the bomb shop lol.

Wow... how could you miss that

 

[rctgamer3]

No, they dont automatically save on sd, though it prompts you to do it if you want.

How do you save to SD? I haven't figured this out yet.

Nintendo can change whatever they want, but whoever butchered Zora link should be castrated. It was SO fun screwing around as dolphin link trying to break his neck on the beach. God damn, the kids are gonna grow up never knowing the fun they could have as a zora. 0/10 worst remake.
I'm just imagining that south park scene with george lucas and indiana jones, indi has a zora mask on and george just has a Nintendo censor bar for a head wearing a mario cap.

You sick monsters

EDIT: this was a very suitable 5k post.

The deku shrub water jumping was nerfed too, you can't spin into the water to get a boost no more, and jumping to the next lily pad takes more jumps as a result

It's still possible, just a bit harder for some bizarre ass reason.

 

[piratesephiroth]

I only wished they improved the final boss battle but it's still the most disappointing moment of the game.

Side Jump off a Lilly Pad or water for that speed.

Deku Link is nerfed more than Zora Link.

Deku Link is nerfed more than Zora Link.

No one gives a shit about deku link. He's literally only used when he has to be. After woodfall he's only used when you're forced to fly or jump up somewhere.
I'd rather sell the mask for 50 rupees than keep it wasting an inventory slot.

Zora Link is equally useless. Even more in this remake, hue. It's the Aquaman of the transformation masks.

Goron Link is the superior Link.

 

[VinsCool]

What is wrong with zora link? I am only on second temple right now.

They reduced his regular swimming speed. Now he goes full speed only when he uses the eletcric shield thing.
It's kinda good because he was 2 fast 4 me on narrow places.

Eww thay sucks :c not the best change indeed.
Its full speed was good enough on n64.

They're all pretty shit now.

Thanks Nintendo for nerfing Zora link down to deku tier.
