836. 1Upsmanship - The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Ganser and Swaim find out about a little known franchise called “Zel-da.” Apparently, this is the first game in the franchise where you run around as Zelda, so that’s pretty cool. It’s an 1Upsmanship episode!

836. 1Upsmanship - The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Comments

Mike, I think you'd like Majora's Mask a lot, given your stated preference for weird/dark/melancholy vibes and tones. The transformation sequences of using the masks to inhabit the bodies of fallen heroes (of the Deku, Goron, and Zora tribes) was legitimately transfixing as a kid, and the surreal atmosphere as everyone sits around grappling with their impending doom from the falling moon is great.

To say that journalist sucked this game off like people weren't sucking off Balatro is wild.

I did some digging into the lore discussions about Echoes, and the implications of the final boss being just a big version of your little guy. Apparently the idea has been around for a while that the center triangle in the Triforce is actually a fourth god sealed in the middle, which lines up with EoW. If the internet is to be believed.

Swaim's right; Abe/Ganz merch when 🤔

I enjoy the episodes where y’all don’t like the game a lot more than the episodes where you do. I think hearing a reasonable disassembly of a games weaknesses is far more informative and enjoyable than just hearing why a game rules. That’s why I’m SOOOO hoping for a Forespoken 2.
