    Am i the only one who doesn't think death mountain is as hard as everyone says it is? In fact, it's not hard at all. Also, this is a very good game, but it gets way too much hate from Zelda fanboys.

    • @LetsPlayZombieGames
      @LetsPlayZombieGames 9 років тому +4

      Death Mountain is so easy once you know to always go right and take the elevators down.

    • @rellik187redrum
      @rellik187redrum 9 років тому

      I lent my game to my friends brother to get the hammer for me so I could actually get through the rest of the game. Eventually I did it all myself though.

    • @scottydu81
      @scottydu81 9 років тому +1

      Hell, i think death mountain is a great place to grind levels. Yeah it's a bit tricky (at least w/o the downthrust).

    • @mncdssctn9110
      @mncdssctn9110 8 років тому +2

      After learning the right way to go so I didn't have to fight more enemies than necessary, then I found Death Mountain pretty easy.

    • @MasterMarf
      @MasterMarf 8 років тому +5

      +wilkes85 in my experience its "easy" if you know where to go. but if you dont, its very hard ^^

  • @erase4473
    @erase4473 7 років тому +3

    the best area to farm is outside the hidden village there's 2 lizards each time each worth 150 and a total of 300 you can get a lot quickly.

  • @CaptainCocaine
    @CaptainCocaine 9 років тому +2

    Another reason the hidden town area is such a good grinding area is that you are practicing against lizalfos's before heading towards the final palace, where there are a bunch of lizalfos's on your way that you HAVE to fight without being able to use a jump attack.

  • @ApocalypseKurtz
    @ApocalypseKurtz 9 років тому +4

    22:20 you can make that jump w/o jump spell. And the orange cretures dropping the flame show you where the hole is because it falls through. And you can't use fairy because of the blocks you need the sword for.

  • @gokaury
    @gokaury 9 років тому +1

    Pro Tip: If you go all the way to the left just before the fight with Thunderbird, you can stab the blocks there to make either a Red Bird or a red magic vial appear. That way you don't have to die to the boss just to fill you life and magic again.

  • @caelumborn
    @caelumborn 9 років тому +6

    farming : doing the same event chains over and over for materials(new weps, armor, items)
    grinding: killing the same enemies over and over to level up.

    • @vonSarno

  • @algol291
    @algol291 9 років тому +2

    The most underrated Zelda game is 'Link's Awakening' for GameBoy. It's amazing, and is a complete Zelda game, with less content than 'A Link to the Past', but still amazing.

  • @_Some_Guy_
    @_Some_Guy_ 9 років тому +1

    rocks can be defended with your shield whereas fireballs cannot (according to the manual). so that's how you can determine whether those guys are throwing rocks or fireballs

  • @Waldimart
    @Waldimart 9 років тому +1

    Best grinding spot is the forest area to the left of Hidden Town Kasuto, way faster than killing spiders in the Nabooru area.

  • @christurbed199869
    @christurbed199869 8 років тому +3

    I love this game. I have had it since 1987 and my method of playing the game is different from what I have seen from other gamers.

      +GabrieXL (sir Maleficious) I suck at NES games. I can't even beat SMB1 or 3 without game genie or save states, but I've beaten Zelda II more times than I can count. It's definitely easier than The original LoZ 2nd quest with all of the damn blue darknuts everywhere.

    I literally had to map the last level in my mind when I was a kid playing this game. It worked so well I have never forgotten it. I can't remember the layout of any other level in this game, except the last one.

  • @Matt23488
    @Matt23488 5 років тому

    1:47:35 - They give you a key when you kill all bosses/minibosses because that's the mechanism the game uses to unlock the screen scrolling. So while you don't need the key, it's just the ready-made solution to let you progress to the next screen.

  • @Drain_Life_Archive
    @Drain_Life_Archive 9 років тому +1

    Farming is for items. Grinding is for stats/XP. As for where they came from, probably MMOs, maybe Everquest if not sooner.

  • @tcironbear21
    @tcironbear21 8 років тому +1

    Here is the secret to killing those eagle knights.
    1) Block there sword attacks and do not attempt to attack them. They move too quickly for you to attack and defend at the same time.
    2) Eventually they will try to jump on top of you. That is when you up attack on them. They will be bounced back.
    3) Return to Step 1.
    Use that pattern and they go down like punk bitches.

    Mike lost so much life throughout this play through by trying to run past enemies. Next time stand and fight!

  • @SkiKoala
    @SkiKoala 9 років тому

    The final palace theme, part of it reminds me of when you fight Wart in SMB2.

  • @syxx573
    @syxx573 9 років тому +12

    I don't understand why he spends so much time "farming" or whatever and then when he's in the final dungeon, rather than patiently properly fighting the monsters, he runs through them and takes 2 or 3 hits and doesn't even kill anything other than the easiest enemies.

    • @benfrombelow
      @benfrombelow 9 років тому +7

      +syxx573 He doesn't know how to fight anything without taking a million hits. The blue ironknuckles are easy. The blue lizardmen are easy. The blue eagle warrior aren't too bad either. Mike just panics and starts mashing buttons.

    • @JAKECUB100
      @JAKECUB100 9 років тому +1

      +syxx573 been wanting to know for decades, what the best way to kill ironknuckles and the bull lizard dudes.

    • @JAKECUB100
      @JAKECUB100 9 років тому

      thanks for the info bro!

    • @benfrombelow
      @benfrombelow 9 років тому +3

      +JAKECUB100 The blue ironknuckes throw their swords slowly until you hit them, then they rage for a few seconds. Wait until they calm down to attack again. They back away when you get close so if you're patient it's pretty easy to beat them without taking a hit.

  • @dawnbreaker2912
    @dawnbreaker2912 7 років тому

    The dragon is actually "Volvagia" (same as Ocarina), but NoA badly butchered the translation on this one. It was corrected on the GBA version.

  • @StormsparkPegasus
    @StormsparkPegasus 6 років тому

    "Barba" should be familiar with anyone who played Ocarina of Time. Zelda 2 just suffered from "blind idiot" translation. In Japanese, it was called バルバジア (barubajia). OOT retranslated the name to the more accurate to the Japanese "Volvagia". That fight was intended to be a callback to the Zelda 2 boss. Unfortunately, English speaking audiences totally missed the reference due to Zelda 2's awful translation. In Japanese they have the exact same name. The only difference being OOT added 灼熱穴居竜 to the beginning of the name, which roughly translates as Scorching Hot Cave-Dwelling Dragon. Just as the English version added Subterranean Lava Dragon.

  • @schwarzerritter5724

    I don't understand why people find this game so hard. Mike is STRUGGLING on the blue knights and the skull balls. You just have to be patient and be deliberate. This is NES, so you can't just rush. Block the knives and then attack.

    Mike, with the Blue birds things and the blocks all you have to do is use jump and cut a path up high. You were down thrusting once you got up there which sent you all the way back to the bottom of that wall of blocks.

    Did you ever play Lunar: The Silver Star on Sega CD? (or any of the re-releases?) I really enjoyed the game, and enjoyed the writing. I never finished it though because I was really busy at the time and I needed to grind up some levels. I guess it would be too long to live stream though, since the game is about 25 hours.
