The HD-2D remake has been a wonderful thing. Now you see the adventure in the same way these old illustrations intended you to feel it.
Btw, I love how the magazine is so insistent on the idea of fighting a dragon.
There were actually fewer characters than I expected lol. I should have included secondary modes as well.
I got the Rare Ghost drops legally, no save states or cheats. The Twilight Cloak was my best friend here to get some extra luck because this stupid ghost dropped the Mystic Brooch before the other lucky ring.
I also farmed up to level 53, which is the maximum you can reach before all enemies only give you one experience point. So that also helped, along with the Lucky Charm and the Lucky Ring.
I was thinking of trying to get all the drops in the game to have 100% of the encyclopedia, but I don't know. Even with the Rare Ring, this task is annoying.
I'm currently replaying Zelda II for the second time. I had already completed a fairly full playthrough of the game, but I stopped because the last Temple was very confusing. I decided I would complete it later, but I never went back.
I am currently on a second playthrough starting from scratch, I still remember many things so I haven't needed guides for the Quests, the most I've needed has been to use maps for the temples.
Although difficult, I find it quite fun. The movement mechanics are interesting, and the side-scrolling level design is engaging. I really love the magic system; I think it's the only time Link can use his own spells and not magic he evokes through artifacts.
But my god, the combat in this game is titanic. The sword's terrible range makes getting close to an enemy incredibly difficult. At least the shield works excellently, although it frustrates me a bit that it doesn't block all types of projectiles. Why can't I stop an axe with the shield?
But overall I'm having a good time. I don't think I've ever played such a stimulating Zelda game.
The original author is shown in the image, don't bother me.
Despite the change Ayami Kojima made, he actually retains many of his original facial features, with just a slightly different hairstyle; his musculature and physique are also practically identical too.
I really like the hair color in Nintendo Power, it starts out dark and gradually gets lighter.
