0:48 - 0:55 I never noticed until now that Link's reflection disappears once he goes past the tree spawing in Dark Link
That's just creepy now
Joseph Carmelo Dark link is links shadow
Joseph Carmelo swiggy swooty your shadow is now my property
Wow, interesting observation.... Nice
It took me 16 years to find that.
It would have been so cool if the last boss in the Trial of the Sword in Breath Of The Wild was Dark Link
He was already a skin so yeah. Maybe he'll be an optional boss in BotW2.
That would've been awesome
or the fierce deity even tho it wouldn't make sense
Huh 🤔 that actually would make sense dark link is just a obstacle that link has to overcome he’s not an enemy that comes from GanonDorf or anything and considering the master sword trials are just A challenge for a link to get his true sword then it would have perfect for the game
@@Mii_F It definitely wouldn't be that, sorry. The Fierce Deity is a warborn god, and has the power to destroy an entire moon. The Fierce Deity would kick Link's ass with no effort, especially since OoT Link had to limit himself to using the mask only in boss rooms so he didn't end up killing everyone he saw relentlessly because the mask was even more powerful than Majora's mask and would definitely overtake the body of anyone who used it.
Out of all the dark link appearances, the twilight version actually was the most creepy type of death I ever seen...
Ikr
Anyway it was rated t
Wtf happened to link ? Wtf just happened to him
@@artasky6093 Watch the gameplay, highly recommend! It's a bit too long to explain and experiencing it would make a big diffrence. :)
Dark Link: Who are you?
Dark Pit: I'm definitely not like you. That's for sure.
Autobot You can write off but not exactly.
@@alexidk1785
???
Exactly. Unlike Dark Link, Dark Pit actually has a personality...then again...he's the opposite of Pit who also has a personality...
@@mikeanthony3300 ow
dark pit came from a mirror that gives some kind of alternative universe character or idk(only saw some gameplay clips so thats why i dont know)
Dark link came from magic(?)
I like how Nintendo reminds people to face your shadow self. It's actually the negative qualities that we hide from other people. You can find your shadow self in your dreams, lucid.
Dark Link's battle in Ocarina of Time is such an underrated part of the game. For one, him only becoming visible once you pass him once is an early horror VG cliche & (I'd imagine) prob one of the first times it was ever used in 3D games. Then the entire room is literally a representation of "reflection". It's all just awesome.
I actually *Avoided* the little "Island" with the tree. Apparently, he only comes out when your reflection vanishes from the water, *WHICH ONLY* happens if you walk over the Island!!
Do you know what "underrated" means? I don't think you do.
@@Bornheck Maybe underrated isn't the right word. I guess I mean more in how ppl generally dislike water temple when Dark Link is easily the eeriest mini-boss.
@@spitefulraven People actually hates only the water temple, but everyone loves the dark link fight, and everyone talks about it, so don't worry about that, people seems to make the distinction between the temple and the mini boss inself
dork.
One of the most difficult enemies in the Zelda series, because you are fighting against your own self. I am quite curious as to his origin.
I believe each version of him has different origins. The one I particularly like the most is the one from Hyrule Warriors. Dark Link being born from Link's own inner darkness is pretty interesting.
Me knowing it's because of his pride:
>Signature look of superiority
@LamentAnimatronic Are you sure things are so black and white? (Pun unintended.)
@@teleferkzya13 i think you just fight the ez version there many game
Dark Link is supossed to be the physic representation of Link´s inner problems, anguishes, doubts and bad feelings (Link´s darkside) with the only purpose to become him bad, corrupt him or kill him, but he is also the way Link can get rid of all that and be more confident about himself and follow his duty without any doubts.
He is also a way he (Link) can prove he is worthy of the triforce of courage and the Master Sword and also get stronger emotionally and physically.
This video in three words:
"Stop hitting yourself."
Mark van der Wal oof XD
7
Yep
But you have to hit yourself so you would stop hitting yourself...🤔😂
This is a truly genius comment. Well done.
12:55
link : misses 3 times
dark link : 👁👄👁🛡🗡
Wouldt be better like this?:
🛡️👁️👄👁️🗡️
🛡🔴👄🔴🗡
oh i turned dark link into a bug
Dark link: "Are you quite done ?"
So we just gonna ignore the fact that at 10:53 he died at 6.66 seconds!
10:02
Zelda... I don't feel so good
Link
Link said that to zelda
Link is Spidey Confirmed.
@@Spidy-er9rl Are you link?
"I don't wanna go princess I don't wanna go"
13:51 is the best dark link theme.
thats pretty dark
Just a remake of the dungeon theme of Adventure of Link, the game he originally came from.
I like the Melee version, but this one is pretty good too.
Ocarina of time: Look! My dark side! I'm going hit it with a hammer
You defeat ocarina of time dark link: "peace out. Here's twenty bucks"
17:42-21:29 Red and blue are just T-posing.... MENACINGLY!!!
Them are
Link have to controle them
They are
Yeah
Ah, I see, your a man of JoJo as well
Dark Link is powerful, evil and that's all. At least he appeared again in Link's Awakening for Switch.
Link:Who are you?
Dark Link:iam you but with black and deeper voice
10:52 Look at the timer.
O
The Federal Bureau of Investigation stop watching porn Fbi
LMAO
666 😥🤯😧😨
OH BOI!!
I had no idea he was in so many games. Thanks for making this compilation.
Seriously, if you can beat Dark Link in Zelda 2 without taking damage AND without cheating, you have to be one of the best gamers in the world! :O
Dark Link should be used as a mini boss battle for Super Smash Bros.Ultimate but he's the alternate costume of Link
Yeah just like Pit
“I am a shadow... the true self.”
I hope someone makes an edit with I’ll Face Myself playing against a Shadow Link boss fight someday.
0:33 Its epilepsy time
Well, that was common during '70s-'90s in original games. I miss those days. Strobe flashing is so gone, now.
The ocarina of time was smart, the water of you're shadow dissapears when you go on land like a suprise.
Easy to kill
Just turn off the lights
No light no shadow
If the roof is blocking sunlight turning everything under it dark then yes, it's ALL Shadow
Turns off light
Dark Link: expands
Stay in a room without windows.BOOM
*then you can’t see him*
Dark Link is Link's inner dark reflection. Appears in Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Breath of the Wild as a skin for Link.
Shadow Link is born from Link's shadow. Appears in Adventure of Link, Oracle of Ages, A Link to the Past GBA, Four Swords Adventures, Spirit Tracks, A Link Between Worlds, Tri Force Heroes and Link's Awakening remake.
You know what they say, everybody has a dark side, no matter how good they are.
Exactly. Hyrule Warriors is the best portrayal of Dark Link IMHO.
Also Hyrule warriors!
Dark Link Reminds Me Of Those .Exe Creepypastas Except His Color Pattern Is A _SHADOW_
Isn't a dark link a link to the dark web? XD
Lol XD
@Jose Andres Elvir Avila Golden Joke
Had to say XD didn't you....
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to The Dark Web
... Oh hell no... I fell for it...😂
1:26 dark link just watches him miss
I have always loved how Ocarina´s Dark Link gets more "solid" and darker the more you hit him or you get hurt.
He gets more solid over time, not when he's taking damage.
*The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Dark Web*
More like TLoZ: A Link to the depths of death!
17:45
Can we all agree that this is probably one of the scariest incarnations of Dark Link?
Look at that smile, good lord.
What smile?
sadly link never accepted his shadow it would've been cool to see his persona
Dark Link/Shadow Link is amazing. I always wondered what happened to OoT's version, as it doesn't look like he really died; it looks like he just disappeared. But maybe Link was just fighting the dark side within himself, and Dark Link/Shadow Link only exists within Link, so maybe it's just a metaphor.
I like how there's no unnecessary commentary in this video. Thanks for putting this all together!
23:28 "FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!" wait, wrong game.
You picked the wrong house
I do like how in oot, when dark link is dropped a heart (depending on how many you have) he does the death animation from Zelda 2
Anything: *exists*
Nintendo Unity: I CAN MAKE THAT HISTORY
Ocarina of time Link: how can you jump on my sword and I can't?
Dark Link: white guys can't jump.
I always found it weird he didn't show up botw because he would've been a perfect fit with the more advanced combat.
In other games: fight him in botw: get it from kilton and be him
I remember the first time I fought Dark Link in Ocarina of Time 3D....it was weird. He came out of nowhere....😶
10:52 *new record*
On dark link...
Also the timer 666
Dark link/shadow link literally in every Zelda games: i AlWaYs CoMe BaCk!
Great video bruh
I love to drag the fight with oot dark link on as long as possible, make it more cinematic
Bravo très bonne vidéo merci
*i can’t believe you’ve done this.*
dang That dude made Dark Link from LoZ 2 Look easy. Mega Gamer spotted
that death sound in oot is so satifying
Tbh, I think the sounds at 1:40 are satisfying for me lol
Bro didn't even upgrade his life meter but still made it to Dark Link. Absolute mad lad
God friggin dang it, I replayed OoT like two years ago and couldn’t remember how to beat Dark Link. Can’t believe it was just to use the hammer.
There are plenty ways to beat Dark Link
1:30 Is it just me or why do i think his death scream sounds so funny 😂
Fun fact: in the Adventure of Link, that's not Dark Link or Shadow Link. It's "Link's Shadow" and fighting it is only a test to see if Link is worthy to hold the Triforce.
I remember fighting dark link in hyrule warriors (I play on 3DS) for me it was hard in the start but I realized his weakness. (Spamming specials and using magic)
19:10 T-POSE strikes again
You just gave stop hitting yourself a whole new meaning
cool detail in ocarina of time is that links reflection disappears when dark link spawns
Everybody gangsta till the door behind you locks
to the person who kept using a megaton in oot:
ure a bottom, square up with a sword
the one from links’s awakening reminds me of the shadow puppet costume from a hat in time, mostly because of the color
I don’t think they ever did this concept better than in Ocarina of Time. Conquer yourself.
Zelda 2
Link truly is Peter Pan on steroids, he even has the shadow shenanigans going on.
the hardest link game....you made look so easy
Shadow and/or Dark Doppelgangers has Lose By All True Heroes
9:59 Ms. Zelda... I don't feel so good...
Cool
I'm currently playing ocarina of time, can't wait to meet him :)
I feel like Link’s Awakening Dark Link was a missed opportunity for a Dark Souls-style invasion mechanic, to add in some multiplayer aspects to the game a bit.
They kinda do that in a link between worlds but shit.
Yeah the way Link Between Worlds is an okay response to that. You’re fighting an AI that just kinda gets left-over in your world I guess, but there’s no *actual* multiplayer.
I actually like Four Sword Shadow Link as I like how you have to escape a Bomb that he throws and how he can duplicate into 4 like the 4 coloured link’s
And how sometimes only certain links can attack him as he challenges that colour link.
It’s just an awesome fight plus it’s multiple times too because of the Mirror the darkness holds which I find the best moment of Shadow Link in my opinion
Oh, that's where great Tigers teleport sound comes from.
Should be a future main antagonist of legend of Zelda game who actually causes chaos over Hyrule throughout the whole game with many encounters it would be pretty epic and you would end being an outcast as folks will believe you responsible for all the terrible acts.
omg yes that'd be s cool
The dark link battle in Hyrule warriors was actually fun when playing with my sister
Dark link might honestly be the most underrated villain. The fact he's a literal exact mimic of link, meaning link would either severely struggle against him, or not even win.
Could you imagine a totk dark link??
Now that age of Calamity is out, you could consider adding the malice ''hollow'' of Link, because I like to think it is dark link in Botw
3:16 what’s the name of the song? It seems so familiar but I cannot remember the name
Dark link is more powerful then link because he can say the n word
Can y’all chill it was just a joke
oh god oh frick
Facts
CM T3
Link: We’re evenly matched
Dark Link: Nah i’m stronger
Link: Why
Dark Link: *_slowly reveals N-word pass_*
Link is Dead XD
CM T3 qqq.
2:03 that sound is stuck in my head
0:12 The first notes of the song.... I thought link would get his persona at the end of the fight
9:46 me and the boys when we find the beans
God I miss Four Swords Adventure
Dark link only appears in the gba version of a link to the past which includes both a link to the past and four swords
Which this remake includes 4 swords to collect then u go in a lair then the four swords will generate the shadow of the four sword heroes
what game is 3:52 ? it's the a link to the past vibe, but i never found shadow link in this game. Also, it has the four swords painted on the ground, but the four swords game for gba had minish cap graphics. So niw im confused :D
Kay now I need to play Tri Force Heroes. Dang that Link is the most powerful out of all of them!
that tough doppelganger of Link
Fighting dark link is technically is fighting my anxiety ._.
I'm actually kind of proud of myself, because I found a way to use his whole "jumping on my sword" thing to my advantage. See, if you hit "A" to knock him off, you get a split second to do a jump attack on him if you time it right.
Link has to constantly fight his inner mercy, in the form of dark link.
Ahhh… the hammer? Really?… try fighting OOT dark link with the master sword! It’s much more challenging and to me at least more fun. And yes I’ve done both
OoT dark link is room is so cool after you realize your reflection is gone.
Cool😎😎😎😎😎😎
En que parte sale darlink en zelda twiling princcess? Es que ya me lo acabe y no recuerdo donde salia
The music of Spirit Tracks is the End music of Phantom Hourglass (My favorite Zelda !)
During the ocarina of time shadow link.
Me: Come on Navi, Hey! Listen!
I remember playing oot for the first time
I went into the room with dark lik and was so confused
I saw shadow link and tried talking to it
My brother told me to target it
And then I was terrified to see that the battle theme started up
Then I watched as it became darker and darker until the eyes turned red and I freaked out
I love dark link
idk why but i find the gamecube graphics amazing
Can't we have a battle with dark link in botw?
No he is only a skin
1:30 that death thou
