Typically in games I don't give a shit if I fail a side quest. I can always try again. But when I failed Malon and the cows, and she got abducted... Man. Then her family's reaction. I was filled with remorse.
The song fits Romani Ranch much better than it did Lon Lon Ranch. First of all, it looks more like a real ranch. Second, the entire song as a melancholic tone to it. That can especially be heard at 0:55 onward; I can't imagine anyone hearing that section and associating it with Lon Lon Ranch first.
the romani ranch sign in japan reads welcome to kakariko village, yea, they were too lazy to put welcome to romani ranch, so they imported an oot texture.
The ranch in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are easily my favorite places in both games. :3 And not just because I'm a sucker for red-headed farmgirls. ^//^
@zenofan1 wanna know the worst part? he doest get any pussy from romani or zelda after saving the fucking earth or from saving zeldas ass so many times...
She was comforting the cows man. What would you rather have been doing, being the good badass guy shooting aliens, or petting milkmachines inside a barn?
@Roguechan dude. she had a bow. so She made it look like she was going to help shoot the aliens. and she just stayed in the bard. I'm alright with comforting animals but couldn't she do that after she helped shoot the aliens?
@zenofan1 I know right? Romani only just learned how to use a bow correctly after Majora was defeated. If she didn't know how to use a bow in the first place, she should have just stayed in the house with Cremia, and let me and the dog kick some ghost/alien ass by ourselves, and not worry about the young girl that'll be kidnapped for a day. (Long comment ftw)
i will back in the past, my 12years playing all day long OoF and MM...time is running..but the love never dies....Thanks Nintendo for this 2great amazing nerver forgotten GAMES
ah the 90s a really kick a** time. new games advanced game systems. and the part of growing up. legend of zelda will always be one of my favorite games.
@MRresievil310 GOD I KNOW! This game reminds me so much of when I was little and just got an n64 and played on it from sun up to sun down. All the new crap like COD doesn't really have a meaning like zelda does.
If I went back there I would take a P90, lots of ammo, and a couple of Stinger missile launchers. I would then stand outside the barn with my P90 and shout "Screw u aliens!" and blow them away. I would then take the Stingers and blow up their ship, because I doubt aliens back there have no anti missile defenses. Boom! Two jobs done, and no more aliens. And probably an invite to stay! Lol I would so take that offer. Cremia is the most beautiful girl in the world!
you know i got so board i let them win and if you go to the water temple area and wait after they come and go youll see them in the water area its cool and point less^_^ (the light but you have to look where they go to get in the ranch )
The easiest way i found doing the whole ghost invasion was just standing on the box right outside the stable, you can see all the ghosts that appear and the ghost that appears behind the house you can see his light before he even shows himself.
I like this ranch better. It's bigger, enabling you to explore more, and the absence of Malon's voice provides some relief for those who just want to listen to the music. And the whole emotional story in Romani Ranch is an added bonus as well.
i played this when i was 5 so i used to love this music (and still do) but the first time i saw those aliens, it scared the living daylight out of me. now i look back at those aliens and laugh at how slow they are and all their pixels :)
@xcom2009 it wasnt fun o.e i did it 4 times and poor cows,, fourth time i thought, HEY if i stay there.,,.. i can see and shoot every single piece of sht down! O .o and then it was easy o.o
Lon Lon is the name of the ranch in Ocarina of Time. No one was ever ever ever named Lon Lon... It's CREMIA who I don't necessarily like. Sorry kid but your attempt was proven as a FAIL. Please before you say something at least play the game first or until you understand it correctly.
i got really freaked out when Romani got obducted because i thought she would never come back, but now that i think about it, she says 'we' did it, and im thinking "What, you let me do all the work, and then you say 'we'? Maybe you could've shot the ones that got inside!" Lol that sounds mean, but i did it somemany times!
am i the only one that felt sorry when romani got abducted because i thought she went through anal probing?that can be very traumatic for a little girl.
this song is so relaxing it calms me when i'm mad or upset they should make more zelda games with these songs like the song of healing or deku palace ooh and clock town theme so many good songs I wish to buy the sound tracks.
I LOVE just riding on Epone slowly while listening to this music, it makes Link look like he is off in a world of his own, like me XD try it and you will se for yourself!
this might be better, but at least in Lon Lon Ranch there are 4 gold skulltulas, a heart piece and you get to see Ingo acting insane. Also, you get Epona there.
Plus lol, remember the alien part where they steal the cows. Lawl and you gotta shoot um down with arrows. Sweet stuff.
And the morbid fact about that chick on the farm teaching you to shoot the balloons just in case of an attack.
All fits in well. Another dark yet cool part of Majora's Mask.
Though, imo, the reason why it wasn't as popular as OOT was the 3 Day thing. If they didn't have it, they woulda had a slightly better game on their hands.
I know, that three day thing really kept some people back. But personally I think it's what made the game so great. It created a kind of reversable storyline, where you could investigate different parts of the same days. It's also what makes the game so sad, because you know everyone you leave behind dies.
Until the end, of course.
And the alien shooting was one of my favorite parts. That and the Goron Race. =D
I was always getting so mad when a other goron hitted me XD i was like FKIN GORON !! DONT FKIN HIT ME IM RACING!!!!!! and then the goron who hitted me won.. then i was like.. o.o.........WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@FuzzyPig5 I never understood why people did not like this game, it was so dark, had a depressing feel the whole game. Its EQUAL in quality to Ocarina of Time. The areas are fantastic in it, the music is epic, the graphics were beautiful and the playing felt so smooth. (Anybody else feel like a badass whenever Link side flip jumped over something?)
@JordanMeAwesome F*** yeah!! When I first saw Link jumping like that I thought it was really badass!! Well, at first I didn't like the game very much, but now that I have gone a little further (first time I'm playing this game, by the way... via Wii) I'm starting to really apreciate it... It has a dark feeling all the game long, depressing but with funny scenes... Very different from OoT, but great in its own way, isn't it? (Sorry about my English, if I made mistakes)
@FuzzyPig5 - The goron race! That for me is one of the worst parts and I've played this game a million times now. Still play it all the time on the GC, although I do have it on N64 too but I never play that cartridge that often now.
i liked Romani Ranch better be cuz it looked better bigger more stuff to do and seemed to have more privacy than Lon Lon Ranch i mean lon lon ranch was in the middle of hyrule field while romani ranch was in the southern part of termina field and it seemed to be way lusher right next to the Southern Swamp and Great Bay and all those puppies and chicks were there friken poe looking aliens called Them or They and best of all they live by the Deku tribe go Dekus!
I think they used the lon lon ranch theme the difference is that they used different instruments... lik in the lon lon ranch theme there was humming but they replaced that with a different instrument in this one
Malon and the older Malon are in that game too, but their names are different... the young Malon is named Romani and the older one... uhh... don't know anymore xD
I didn't liked that of the game. All the characters from Ocarina of Time came back, but actually they were different!
Typically in games I don't give a shit if I fail a side quest. I can always try again. But when I failed Malon and the cows, and she got abducted... Man. Then her family's reaction. I was filled with remorse.
That's why this game is incredible.
