I always imagined the carving on the root of Links treehouse was something he made himself. He was the one Kokiri who was always a little different from the rest, and while his neighbors were content to live out their serene life in the forest, he dreamed of adventure and making a name for himself.
13:50 the same stone as behind the tree is in the lake, is it not?
@@bearb1asting yeah, they're sheikah stones. but they're just about everywhere, tucked away in corners and such. they give hints and tell the time iirc.
@@rebeccapilcrow I wondered why it wasn't brought up in the video. I thought this was some kind of secret stone
@@bearb1asting”Demon King? Secret Stone?”
@@gabe5918 I don't know anything about them, that's why I asked. I think I assumed that one was a glitch there or something.
This series just hits different
I love this series a lot. The thing that sets it apart from simply picking apart how well a game world emulates reality through its mechanics, is the emphasis on player immersion and the emotions the developers can potentially evoke from them. Being able to articulate this so well demonstrates very impressive emotional intelligence.
8:25 that's not a regular Fairy
that's a Fat Fairy they fully restore all your hearts AND magic
they're rare and only appear in certain areas like that one
What an awesome little secret behind the Great Deku Tree. I never knew about that!
I probably knew about it at some point, but I forgot when writing this video. It's a sneaky little area.
I've never played any Zelda games but you did a great job showing the atmospehere of the game! Thank you so much for another great video, I love watching them when I'm stressed because they calm me down quite easily!
My favorite little cozy area on Ocarina is the fishing pond by far.
I love the vibe the Kokkiri Forest has. I loved just hanging out here and there and exploring all the corners to see what else of interest I could find.
I also love just staring at the canyons in Metroid Prime 2 Echoes. I love the art direction of that game.
Also just watching the vistas in Xenoblade. Playing it on an emulator and setting the resolution to 1080p makes the art style really sell its beauty.
OH GOD, I'M A TOURIST!
I hadn't thought about touring a Xenoblade game before, they'd be PERFECT for this series. The scale of the maps are crazy. I'd have so much to talk about.
@@PretzelYT Xenoblade gives you the ability to manipulate the time of day, so you can take several shots of the same location during various weather effects and different hours.
In case you do, have in mind that the weather can't be directly controlled by the player, but every 12 in-hours game has a chance of the weather changing. You can set the clock to 12am, then keep shifting between am and pm until you get the desired effect, save the game, then shift the time to get the time of day you want without losing the weather effect.
I know this is an old video, but I'm just gonna chime in a bit about Kokiri Forest - it's extremely unlikely they have contact with other settlements, for two reasons. For one, they're not really supposed to leave the forest - the other Kokiri make a big deal of Link leaving the forest at the start of the game. Going the other direction, people who enter the Lost Woods turn in to either Stalfos if they're adults, or Skull Kids if they're children. It's a little unclear if this only applies to the area that's literally called "Lost Woods" in game, or the whole forest. Presumably, the reason Link is fine despite living there is due to having the spirit of the hero and/or the Triforce of Courage. It should also be said that the Kokiri are forest spirits. By the time of Wind Waker, they've changed into Koroks, but unlike the Zora, it is never explicitly stated that they "evolved." So, while this *would* be a retcon, there is a distinct possibiliy that the Koroks already existed before the time of Ocarina of Time, but when Link's mother arrived in the Lost Woods while fleeing conflict with her baby, the Deku Tree decided that it would be best for the Koroks to take on a form that more closely resembles that of Link himself, so that he wouldn't grow up feeling alone, and dubbed them "Kokiri." So while they certainly still have to eat and stuff, them being magical beings of the forest (whether they're Koroks that transformed, or whether Kokiri are a separate thing), I think it stands to reason that the forest holds all that they need in order to survive. Of course, that may not have proven true for long if Link didn't stop Ganondorf, since he seemingly used some sort of dark magic to poison the Deku Tree. That sort of tracks, since in A Link to the Past or any of the following games, there's no real evidence of living Kokiri. But in the intermittent state that Kokiri Forest is in during the events of Ocarina of time, I don't see it being a huge issue for them that they're sort of cut off from the rest of the world.
(I really hope none of this came across as "ummm, actually here's why you're wrong," that was very much not my intention, the Zelda series is just one of my many hyperfixations, this comment is all meant in good fun!)
Cool Videos! I've been watching your Zelda themed vids. I remember the first time I saw the very first 1986 Zelda it blew my mind. It was miles above anything else available at the time. It was in a class of it's own. 37 years later BotW and the upcoming TotK have both given me that same feeling. Wow what am I looking at?!?! Big nod to Ocarina of Time. Epona! You really got my nostalgia flowing even more!
After thought, I suppose the thing that really hooks me with Zelda games is that they have heart. Real heart with a pervasive spirituality toward all things good.
15:01 Just finished replaying this yesterday and I gave my flatmate a whole speech about how cosy that wee area in the cow shed was!
15:54 I honestly thought I knew everything about this game, like, I've watched deep dives into it. How have I never known about this cave?! It's really pretty, I'm glad I watched this.
The spot that weirded me out was the section with the grotto with that deep pond with the tektite on top. Something about that area was uncanny and bizarre. Maybe the bits of the castle it shows freaked me out. Like a gate that is intimidating because of its height and width.
Wow. All these years later, and I never even thought of Walking up. the tree root to walk around the barrier 6:00
god i cant wait for your channel to blow up so we can get more of this content. i’m absolutely loving it
This series is wonderful, really enjoyed this one!
I like how he called Peahats as "Pineapple Dudes."
Honestly your content is incredibly high effort and high quality, especially for a smaller content creator. Keep it up you legend.
i actually didn't know much about ocarina of time til I watched this c:
You ask why is there hay in the house. The reason is probably to feed the cow. Later on in the game you can unlock a cow in your house.
Amnesia the dark descent could be a nice addition to the video game world tour series 👍
Omg, watching this i remembered as a kid finding these "spots" in Harry Potter I and II for PC. Design of these games is inspired by Zelda games, so it would be cool, if you made a video about spots in them someday.
Interesting take on the 'Unremarkable and odd places in OoT' idea from Any Austin.
I remember always trying to enter Hyrule Castle from the front. The actual interior we never get to see always had me wondering how it wold look. Do you think it would look like Link to the Pasts version?
So that farry is actually different. The puff ball is bigger and it has an additional effect. I think it restores your magic meeter too.
i've never seen that last room in my life what on earth
Sneaky object at 13:49
First time through a game I always take my time dicking around. Notice things like this. But then you replay a game and you're in gamer mode and roll/sprint past shit and skip cutscenes. It's like a metaphor for growing up. As a child you don't prioritize the way you do as an adult so you spend/waste time on things that don't "need" the time. But as an adult you waste your time on things you hate out of obligation or "need" like the need to pay rent or eat...
It would be low key lit to collaborate with a cut content expert. I bet ya many of these spooky areas are cut content areas!!-
I should probably get used to checking The Cutting Room Floor website more often when talking about this stuff. That seems like an invaluable resource for these kinda videos.
@@PretzelYT Correct. It's a wonderful site!
Great video 🤗
Thank you!!! 🙌
3:45 That is absolutely a reference to Link fighting the 2D bosses.
His name is link, not zelda😩
You are going to the big leagues soon, son. Just keep the good job and keep your content unique like that. I really want to see you as a great content creator on this platform.
I believe the tools in the kokiri houses were meant to hint at how their houses are literal carved out trees. The shop is a very obvious stump shape.
I think those trees were seeded by the great deku tree himself, though that is more my headcanon than anything official I know of.
They're a very secluded bunch like the Gerudo, so it makes sense for them to also have some sustainable food source.
That last grotto was jarring to me. Never knew about it. Extremely surreal, gave me similar vibes as the scrapped Pegasus fountain
Could have been part of the cut Light Temple. The texture could be meant to depict refracted light or something.
Link's house is odd. If you look at the view through link's window, it does not seem to match what you see outside... The view most closely resembles the tall tree trunks around the bridge that connects kokiri forest to hyrule field, suggesting that link's house was placed away from the main village. The agricultural tools retroactively make more sense when/if you obtain the "easter egg" reward (a cow) from lon lon ranch horse race time trial in the future that malon delivers to your house (not sure how malon knew where your house is), but it does not explain why the tools were already there long before that.
This was amazing! I’ve always been fascinated by weird areas in video games, and the strange aura that comes with them. I’ll definitely be binging this series.
These videos are just so cosy. I never really got to play Nintendo games as a kid and I'm really loving these tours through worlds that are kind of familiar but still new to me. Your narration and editing are so chill.
you've got some catching up to do then, man!
@@felixputz5190 yeah! Working my way through some N64 titles at the moment, having a great time
> walks upon Ganon Castle
> "I never realized how doom and gloom this all is"
LMAO WHAT
Your videos bring to mind all the ideas and feelings i had about all those old ps2 games like final fantasy and jak and Dexter etc, you've done an amazing job with these videos man. I haven't ever had the words to describe my thoughts on those games and their vibe. I was only like 5 or 6 but ill never forget the memories i made w my family on our snes and ps2, absolutely timeless works with unmatched aesthetics.
I really love this series and wish you a lot of success
Thank you 🙏
It's king dodongo, link has constant dreams of the future. Hence the opening cinematic hehe. Just fyi.
Aww love these series.
So comfy and nostalgic
Uh Any Austin?? you know theres a youtuber that has been doing this for a little bit already right?
methinks he knows lol. where do u think he got the idea from? i love looking at the video titles and seeing them get closer and closer to AAs lol
Really enjoy the content, just not sure why you insist on speaking like you intend to entertain small children
maybe the drawing on the tree(house)
is Dodongo, from one of Links dreams.
I never saw the cave (@ end of video)
I distinctly remember playing around with the dogs in Hyrule castle market at night
4:45 that’s actually untrue. He does return the Kokiri sword! The sword in MM is called the “Hero’s Sword”
Really relaxing video my man, you have a great style!
The carving on Links' house helped little me defeat King Dodongo.
your videos always have such a welcoming and comfortable vibe to them. thanks for the upload ^_^
Comfy
Even as a huge zelda fan i have never seen or heard anything about that "oil slick" room. Are there any items you get there? Has anyone ever made a theory on why it looks like that?
There's a couple Wolfos that spawn, and after defeating them, a chest appears containing 50 rupees. Weird... 🤔
Speaking of open worlds being shrunken down, I always thought it was funny how the gang in Red Dead 2 hangs out twenty yards out of town and thinks they're laying low. The sheriff can hear your arguments from his office!
Please do a video about Luigi's Mansion and mention on how "liminal" it is when taking a step back and how nonsensical and weird the house layout is.
Can someone explain what the arrows in the thumbnail are pointing at?
I wanted to put a focus on the weird crystal wall in the background
@@PretzelYT your title, along with the thumbnail, is deceiving af bro...
bro idk how i got here but it's comfy, ngl
The tree carving on Link's house may possibly resemble mario fighting bowser. There's even what looks like a fireball on top!
Hmm, the creature does look very Bowser-like, but the other character doesn't look very Mario-like. And I always interpreted the thing above the character as his fairy, considering that Kokiri have fairies as companions.
Interesting theory nonetheless.
@@PretzelYT Hmm, I guess you're right. It's an interesting and strange texture nevertheless!
I would say king dodongo, link dreams of future events like meeting Ganondorf.
You should do a world tour on multiplayer shooter maps! Old COD and Halo games have got some vibes going when no one else is around. (Halo CE especially)
I had Modern Warfare 2 pretty high up on my to-do list at one point, but it got pushed back in favor of other videos. I definitely do wanna cover some more multiplayer maps though, they're great for just wandering around in.
Reminds me when I was a kid. The only N64 games I had was; this game, Mario 64 and Goldeneye. I used to stop and smell ALL the roses.
I was scared of those flying pineapples as a kid as well lol What a great video.
I assume the statue in the Castle Courtyard is the king surrounded by the sages/other tribes? As he's taller, surrounded by a group of smaller people, and OoT king apparently reunified the kingdom after a civil war?
To me, Jabu Jabu's Belly (and similar videogame levels taking place inside tunnels of living, pulsating flesh or any scene in a cartoon where characters get swallowed and travel through the inside of a body) has a _cozy_ vibe. Were it not for all the deadly hazards, most of them seeming to be a combination of parasitic infection and Ganon's curse, I'd be right there with Ruto that it seems like a great spot to hang out.
I have a sort of explanation for the 'Rainbow Grotto' in the Sacred Forest Meadow. That room is all that remains of the scrapped 'Temple of Light' we were supposed to go through in OoT's unmade expansion Ura Zelda for the N64 DD. (Which phailed miserably)
He does return the sword actually, the one he has at the start of MM is different. Also I think the drawing might be King Dodongo, but idk how that can be if it's there before the game even starts.
Shin Megami Tensei actually is not really an oldschool dungeon crawler. Its based on european rpg computer games from the 80s. Those were the oldschool ones.
I look forward to the second part! This series is so great, and this is one of my favorite games ever!
Keep up the great work!! (^u^)
I only discovered your channel earlier today and I can't believe you don't have more subs and views then you do. your content is so well done. Keep up the great work.
14:37 I agree I never been that much of a Zelda fan but this place is by far the best part of the game or even the series.
I wish fishing games would be as this enjoyable.
I can’t believe he just doxxed Mido like that, but I also can’t say it’s not deserved.
Great observation on the farming tools. I do recall noticing them my first time playing.
11:35-11:40
Peak comedy
This sends me into a fit of laughter every time
I love how you question the logic of some things in the game, such as the ever moving boulder, but you don’t linger too long on things :)
how the hell do you not have 300k subs yet these videos are so engaging, well edited, AND well scripted
I didn’t know there was more than 1 pineapple dude in hyrule field. I’ve never gon that way on the start of the game
nice
Does anyone know what that weird underground grotto at the end looks like in the 3DS version?
15:46 "This cave is not a natural formation: someone built this."
14:35 i distinctly remember this area being far more vegetated.
Underrated af channel
The hay in Link’s house is for the cow you can get in the game!
Love these videos, glad I found the channel
The Waffle House has found its new host
I love this series
Bro casually doxxed mido
Kokiri is a giant treehouse
how is my man not at 100k subs yet
best content out😊
The windmill is titled "?" because it's the same area as Dampe's grave. Each area can only have one title - I'm not sure if they went with the question mark because Dampe's grave was supposed to be a mysterious, unknown location and the windmill was just collateral damage, or if it was just because they didn't want to give either room an inaccurate title.
Could also be that, due to Link being formerly from the literal backwoods that is Kokiri Village, he's got absolutely zero context on what this huge place with the spinny stuff(a Windmill) is, so he just throws up his hands in confusion and just goes '?'.
At least, that's how I see it. Now, why does he know about the other places then? Well, I reckon the Deku Tree told him stories.
How do you freely move the camera around, is there some kind of mod/AR code? I want to get some footage for a video but not sure how.
Also, do you get any ad revenue from this video? I'm worried about making anything with Nintendo content and it getting copyright claimed immediately. (Not a UA-camr yet, I'm still learning how)
I used the Ocarina of Time practice rom for the freecam.
github.com/glankk/gz
There's an installation guide and user manual on the github. Check out the manual for details on the free camera.
Also, my video is monetized. It SEEMS like Nintendo really only goes after videos that heavily feature modding of recent games? Like I think some big creator had a video taken down recently that showed off multiplayer in Breath of the Wild. For something like what I do, where I just show off stuff in the vanilla game, I'm not too worried about them coming after me. But you'll have to make that judgement on your own based on what you wanna make.
Very nice
15:24 in my whole life playing this game, I never knew that spot existed!!
I know right? I want to boot up my N64 just to visit it!
The Great King Ganondorf got rid of those pineapples - say thank you!
thank u ganondorf
I just stumbled upon this series and I’m hooked. The fact that you can detail these nooks and crannies in my favorite games is just so appealing. I’m grateful for fate for showing me this nice de-stressing series
I thought about the day and night cycle the same way ! Nice to see somebody else put this idea into a video ! It will be nice to see the next episode !
I just love how you call the flying peahats Pinapples!
Love your style! Keep it up :)

Of course not, they know their actions are controlled by Control Stick movements and button presses. Remember the girl on the shop overhang who teaches you how to use a fairy? And that's a thing that only continues with later entries: Sue-Belle from Wind Waker tells you what button to press to pick up and set down pots so you can tell your sister, while Jaggle from Twilight Princess wants you to tell his kids to hold L and press A to talk to people from a distance, because they don't get it. (But they do know the controls for using the Slingshot and sword moves.)
Watching this after spending years watching terminal montage makes this hit differently
someone else think elder scrolls series(Morrowind,Oblivion,Skyrim) would fit in the series?
I HAVE to cover an Elder Scrolls game one day. I wouldn't be doing this video series justice if I didn't take a stroll through Tamriel at least once.
@@PretzelYT True , so much potential!
you better do it or the dark brotherhood could pay you a visit.
I don't mind, their armor sells well. 👍
@@PretzelYT by the gods ... we have a psychopath on the loose!
Really good video like usual keep doing that and you’ll grow in no time I’m 100% convinced
