Here is Part I of XVIII :P

The original Zelda actually went up in my estimation during this replay. I know it’s become cliche to compare everything to Dark Souls, but TLoZ kind of captured that essence 25 years earlier. It’s dangerous, cryptic, and lonely, and if you enter a gauntlet under-equipped, under-powered, or otherwise unprepared the game will punish you for it.

I know some of you already saw it, but here's Part II!

I enjoyed this one for much of the game, but started banging my head against the wall in the final act

That last bit is just brutal. I'd probably rank the game much higher if they either didn't have lives or made the final stretch a lot easier.



Two down, seventeen to go.

Like I said responding to the article;

Adventure of Link isn't without it's legacy though, and I agree Miyamoto was too harsh. Even if different, some things introduced here have stayed throughout the series... Anyway, after two games your ranking's still the same as mine. ... Personally I'll say you're right in saying the final act is unforgiving. That part, The Valley of the Damned (I think it's called) and the Great Palace with it's two ungodly difficult bosses (I know of the trick to easily beat Shadow Link, but that's cheating) are without a doubt the most difficult piece of video game I ever played through. I'll have to say though I haven't played enough of the other notoriously difficult NES games like Castlevania 3, Ghosts n Goblins, Batman or Ninja Gaiden and more, which I'm positive are even more difficult, to compare, but if memory is correct, half of my 100 Game Overs in Zelda II, which I played without guides on my NES itself, have been in that final part. Death Mountain is for wusses compared to that. They don't make them like they used to.



Zelda II is my favourite one actually. Just a lot of memories with that one. I can't even tell you how hard it was to play this game pre internet. You better had some gaming mag.



I was watching some quiz on tv just now.. and one of the contestants was asked what his favorite videogame is. He answered “Zelda Ocarina of Time”.

I nodded in agreement.

I really love Zelda 2. I can play it over and over again and still enjoy it. The difficulty is part of the fun, because it is an action game. It probably would have been better if you could keep leveling up though (and not eventually max out). That way if you find things too hard, then you can keep leveling.

My main complaint about Zelda 2 is that they never explain you can chop down trees using the hammer by pressing B on the overworld. That just does not seem intuitive at all.

Oh my god yes! That is sooo counter-intuitive.

The manual does mention it but I totally forgot by the time I got to the part where you need that information.

Ew.

No wait I remembered correctly now; he actually said it was Skyward Sword.
