Let's Play A Link to the Past #05 - Secret Secrets

[12chapin]

You were suppose to say " release the Kraken"

[duckypwns]

Skyrim is a piece of shit.

[MrCJHardcore]

I believe you could also get the Zora Flippers at this time as well if I'm not mistaken.

[SchlossRitter]

The soldiers are over there failing to track down the Elder or Link.

Once I got all four bottles, I liked to keep 2-3 Faeries and 1-2 Blue Potions and sometimes a tame bee from the ice cave for fun.

It was dumb in the remake how they kept Link's synthesized falling noise and layered the new vocal yell on top.

That faerie laugh in OoT still haunts me.

[elitotaku]

why do you say piece of power?

[KirbyChan]

@elitotaku Watch his Link's Awakening LP and you'll understand.

[EmanuelHoogeveen]

I believe the fortune teller is the one who informs you of the book.

[EmanuelHoogeveen]

@EmanuelHoogeveen Or rather, she -also- tells you about it if you happen to visit her along the way.

[thevoliand]

@slywolf324 you get it in the lost woods

[SlyWolf324]

were did u get te mushroom???

[Rachman1337]

The magic powder is the most important item in the game IMO

[EzioAuditoreXIII]

@HCBailly, Is there a four-link version to this game? If so, is it FSA?

[He11buster]

i think its pronounced saHASrala

[Kingofjunk31]

HCbailly was that forever at 6:44 reference to anything?

[HCBailly]

@Kingofjunk31 Not to my knowledge. It just felt right. :)

[golbezchaoslord]

when you use the magic power on the buzz blob. (the green enemys that will shock you if you attack them with your sword) yeah they become potatohead really that is what wiki say their name is.

[LampTheGuy]

Can you save on the vc version?

[teefa85]

After playing CIMA: The Enemy (which has a very annoying six enemy boss fought with distance weapons near the end...I swear they were imitating ALttP, helped by the fact that another boss reminded me of fighting the Wizard), I find the Armos Knights to be easy. Last time I played I even taunted them with that fact.

[corporalkills]

The Ocarina of Time fairies had a higher pitched version of Kefka's laugh.

[magustx]

It was a real let down when you yelled boss time since it wasn't arcana >.<

[KentoKaima]

lol 10:17 for some reason what's on the sign sounds like HC said it himself,even this game is using your quotes....from the past I guess

[Kengirl01]

There were some faults, but I would say Skyward Sword is definitely one of my top three Zelda titles now.

[Ninjathehedgehog800]

you can kill those things with your boomerage as well

[ryanphoenix]

1:40 Yeah, that boss is pretty easy. How nice of them to give you a plentiful supply of arrows right before the boss. Imagine them giving you something right before you actually need it. What a concept!

[thekyster07]

That fish can can also make you some more money, if you give it to a certain person. If you know what I mean....

[jd81792]

hey henri, you know, about sasharashala.. or however you spell it, I dont think anyone knows how to say it.. I doubt the creator even knows lol

[tiggerpete]

Link to the Past is by far my favorite zelda game, and deffinitely the one I have beat the most often, its everything I loved about games growing up in a single package, in short, imho its perfect

[SuperKaizoMario]

I could've gone two ways at 10:31. Either "More faerie members", or "faeries for days"

[Biospark88]

MOAR FAIRIES!!!

[McScreamo]

yeah skyrim isn't that appealing to me. don't really care for it. it's more overrated if anything :/

[UkyoKuonji2010]

@McScreamo at least I'm not the only one who shares this view. It actually looks boring to me.

[McScreamo]

@UkyoKuonji2010 yeah, a lot of unintelligent assholes "claim" that it's the best game ever, pfff get the fuck outta here lmao! xD

[Alevere51]

Least you are at the easy part....I'm stuck in Dark world on the first temple. But have tons of items so life is good.

[Zarggg]

Hey, you found Sasrahlah! Good job, mon!

[ackerman88]

hey if you pick up the sign at 10:14 the guy says something and then follows you till you leave off screen of course. Great for messing around whenever I played the game.

[ARCEUS493ZELDA]

And actually hcbailly u actually can start at the beginning of a dungeon in this version of the game, but only when u die its happened to me many a time in that dungeon due to lack of basic swordsmanship skills XD

[ARCEUS493ZELDA]

@HCBailly hey hcbailly can I use ur name on a pokemon hack LP that I was gonna do? Let me know via pm if its ok and if so wut pokemon

[MrGamefreak78]

@MrSteveHazzard lol maich booz god one

[MrSteveHazzard]

In reference to the Pegasus Boots, I totally thought HC said "magic booze".

[jacksonprinceful]

@HCBailly

When you sprinkle magic powder on those green guys they become "Cukemen." I dunno what that is.

[MrThenova25]

who is disliking an HCBailly video?

[OmegaCoolsterDX]

@MrThenova25 blasphemers and heretics >:[

[bdude1234567890]

holy crap, i think thats the fastest ive ever seen that boss get killed....

mind=BLOWN!!!

[Zarggg]

@bdude1234567890 You should watch the speedrun of this game. It's kind of awesome.

[mastatsan]

@bdude1234567890 I can beat it about the same speed.. but then again, I used to play through this game like every weekend when I was a kid, so I had plenty of time to get really good at it.

[noyme6663]

you can get the ice rod right after the first dungeon

[Waterwish545]

Hero's Technique is fine, they usually change the name between games anyway.

[YewTo0b]

One think I always like was the defense rating, green being the weakest, then blue, then red (iirc).

[Dyluck387]

@HCBailly

HCBailly, aside from Seiken Densetsu 3, have you ever played any Japan-only RPGs from the 90s like Star Ocean, Tales of Phantasia or Live A Live? I think it'd be killer if you tried your hand at LPing any of those :)

Also, if memory serves, a couple of those were re-released for portables in North America, so even those versions would be pretty sweet to see.

[perfectdarkness99]

there is a little trick you can do with those green things, next to the witch's hut... sprinkle magic powder on them, and they turn into whatever, the next trick is freeze them, then hit them with the magic hammer and they go back to normal.

[DerEchteSenf]

Nice little fairy? She is almost twice your size..!

[axemranger]

In Skyward Sword, you can just hold the A button to run faster. You can only do it for a few seconds, though, cause you have a stamina gauge.

[MidnightSpero]

Did you forget the running man "secret"? I mean ok he only gives rupies i belive but hey its still fun

[seffaboy]

I can't remember what game it was, but I totally feel the same way. I was going through a dungeon at 12:00 repeatedly asking "save point?"

[alexr1915]

i use to play games like this then i got a girlfriend

[halamantariel]

@alexr1915 I used to play games like this, then I took an arrow in the knee.

[DivineSlayer1]

@alexr1915 i used to play games like this, then i got a girlfriend, and started playing them with her.

[MrRamziaB]

@alexr1915 I use to play games like this, then I got YOUR girlfriend

[redch0c0b0]

you should put a counter on your videos to know how many times you would say "piece of POWER" or "secret PASSAGE"

[Shawnoo7Fra]

Fuck FF3 and it'S stupid final dungeon, 3 hours and a half without saving. I died twice at the final boss. Urrrggg

[bingostar826]

but what do you think about the MUSIC in skyrim? i dont think ive ever heard an opening song that set the mood for a game as well as skyrims!!

[Pharphain]

@bingostar826 I never played Skyrim because I didn't think it looked that interesting(And Skyward Sword came out like 1 week after Skyrim and I was waiting for that to come out.), but I went to check out the opening song... Eh.. I've heard better, but that's just my opinion.

[zebezd]

We have the obvious obvious

And the obvious secret

Then there's also the secret obvious

And finally the secret secret

[axemranger]

@zebezd What?

[zebezd]

@axemranger A reference to a speech by I don't even remember who. Instead of "obvious" and "secret" though, he was talking about "known" and "unknown".

[axemranger]

@zebezd No, I got what you were saying, and I knew exactly what you were referencing. I was going along with it. XD The "known and unknowns" thing is from The Boondocks, which used that in reference to Pulp Fiction.

[GethAreAwesome]

"Arrow in the eye, collect my prize" that kinda rhymed...kinda...

[DistadaeD]

The fairies in Ocarina of Time sounded a lot scarier than they looked. It seriously sounds to me like they just got stabbed in the back and are dying when they supposedly laugh... *shiver*

[MikeyS9607]

Pegasus? Dash? Foreshadowing!

[almightycinder]

I'm with you on damned Skyrim. I have always preferred JRPGs and always will.

[Ixthraxus]

Wait...can't get yet? I'm certain you can get the ice rod now, because I remember that it does crazy damage against the next boss. All you need are bombs and the ability to dodge murder crabs.

[KyuubiNoKitsune007]

@Ixthraxus you can get it before the 1st dungeon when you get bombs you can get it

[KyuubiNoKitsune007]

@KyuubiNoKitsune007 he just doesnt want to or is mistaken

[Tonberry2k]

Aw, you didn't take the "average looking man"'s sign.

[demonicloud]

do you have the ps3 version of skyrim? I heard that has the most gamebreaking bugs in the ps3 version =( so that's why I'm on the fence on getting it since like you I just have a ps3, though you did just get a super computer.

[Supershadowman64]

RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!!! XD instead of "arrow to the knee" i prefer "whoops dart in ur ass" thumbs up if u know wat tv show that qoute's from ;)

[PSaunMusic]

Hey HCBailly I have an idea for an LP for you to do in the future. Consider LPing Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song for the PS2. I suggest it because you LPed the Final Fantasy Legend series for the GB, which as I'm sure you know are part of the same series. Also Romancing SaGa has kickass music.

[MikeELtheGamer]

"At least I get to show off my Magic Powder." *takes damage* "At least I get to show off my Magic Powder." *succeeds*

One more failed attempt and I'm sure we would have heard "GAAAAAME!"

[corporalkills]

0:49 "Collect my priiize." Was that an "I'm the Jugguhnaut!" reference?

[obiwattkenobi]

@corporalkills He elongates vowels all the time on words for emphasis, "Secret Treaaasure" "Secret Paaasage" "Piece of Pooowa!" etc. It's like a catchphrase.

[barisaxman2]

You turned the enemy into.....'Peanut Butter Jelly Time! Banana'

[Kalmyel]

What I wouldn't give to see an LP of ActRaiser.

[DarthDP]

@Kalmyel Check DeceasedCrab's channel. He did one.

[WZahnle]

@Kalmyel DeceasedCrab made one.

[nasur86]

@Kalmyel DeceasedCrab did one if you care to look he did a good job

[Xalimdor]

@Kalmyel Go and watch Decased Crabs Let's play of Act Raiser. =]

[NurseRekka]

Nice Scarlet Monastery and Princess Bride reference Mr. Baily. :)

[Zalis116]

According to Assassin17's ALttP "Monster/Attack Stats Guide" on GameFAQs, there is indeed no damage difference between a normal sword swing and a dash attack.

[AgainstYourThought]

Game that doesn't let you save for 3 hours? Gotta be a Xeno game or Persona 3 or 4. Can't think of anything else that cutscene heavy.

[sabata2]

"Release the gates!"

OH NO! NOT THE GATES!

*is Thwomp'd*

[dlbgaw]

I'm surprised that you didn't grab the sign next to the "average middle aged man." It's actually kinda amusing if you do. If you've never done it before, do it for a chuckle.

[Blackdrake1]

I bet you didn't know you coukd Boomerang the Armos Knights to death. You should only do this in the Link to the Past Rom Hack Parallel Worlds in one of the first dungeons. I think it's Farore's Isle you have to do that in. ElectrometorPrime showed that to me.

[JoltsD]

If it helps: Suh*ha*shra*la

[SuperAlex641]

FYI, Bailly, that thing that the Buzz Blob turned into is called a Cukeman.

[matthew74111]

The name of the monster at the beginning of the video is called an Eyegore.

[FuIIOfFaiI]

After all this time of playing this game, your LP's still always shows me new things. Like throwing that fish in the pond for Rupees. Never knew you could do that.

[contenital]

What does the Pedant do?! NOTHING!!!

[LostLink2here]

Zelda bestiary: the heavily armored foes are darknuts. they have incredible defense but a small weakness.

The skeletons are called Stalfos. these living skeletons are often dungeon fodder

[Roprinplup14]

wow no hit from them at all xD talk about a fast kill

[DeathofChrono]

HcBaily, the big one-eyed things are called Eyegores, I think.

[cocomunga]

Also, with those fish. Did you know you can give a fish to the bottle salesman in Kakariko, and he will give you Rupees and items? Pretty silly, I found this out when I was very young.

[mrx8812]

10:35

At least they're not topless(with the hair covering the body) like in Twilight Princess.

[cocomunga]

Which game doesn't let you save for 3 hours? Xenogears? That game...ugh.

[ProfessorOak420]

HCBailly, have you ever considered live streaming? I'm sure many of your other viewers would be interested in the occasional live event with the Hero of Cliffhangers Bailly himself.

[pointynives]

@ProfessorOak420 thatsounds great but it may be rather awkward for some of his viewers from accross the pond

[pooponparade]

It's pronounced "Sahasrahla" ... I hope that helps.

[antigravity19]

HCBailly, getting sick of you ragging on my favorite game in the series all the time OoT was pretty awesome get over the zora area already!

Ok to be fair maybe my first gaming experience in the legend of zelda on NES might be better, I still loved Ocarina.

[ZealSeraph]

@antigravity19 Welcome to the world of those who like Majora's Mask the best. Seems like most of the Zelda fans hate that game. One game can't please everyone, and that includes Ocarina of Time.

[antigravity19]

@ZealSeraph Well one, I said I probably do enjoy my first gaming experience ever in gaming on Legend of Zelda better. Two because you think Majora's Mask was better, doesn't mean you should bag on the game that set the precedent for that game. Not going to say Ocarina was perfect but it was good. HC had the same issue I had first time, but I still love the game

[c4bb4g3]

@ZealSeraph I loved Ocarina of Time, but Majora's Mask was a superior game on a technical level. Graphically, they were pretty much identical but MM offered so much more in terms of NPC interaction and development, radically different gameplay mechanics and appropriate settings to apply them in, and a more interesting goal than the standard "save the princess, beat the bad guys...again". Both had amazing music, so I'm divided on that. I don't understand why so many people don't like MM.

[c4bb4g3]

@antigravity19 he didn't rag on it, he just said that the fairies looked strange. calm down

[antigravity19]

@c4bb4g3 Dude this is going on years now HC ragging on Ocarina. I'm just joking for the most part. I had the same issue he had and still love the game. Just want him to give it its fair chance. I still have never played M.M. Looked too similar to Ocarina, also didn't have too much money as a pre-teen/early teen to buy it

[c4bb4g3]

@antigravity19 gotcha. MM is far superior on a technical level to OoT, though. I understand not having the money for it back in the day, especially when you had to buy that extra cartridge thing for your N64 to make it work. I posted a comment on this video about why I think MM is better gameplay and story-wise. I still love OoT and always will, but the subsequent games were just better. OoT has the breakthrough factor; it was the first 3D Zelda game and nostalgia will always reign supreme.

[antigravity19]

@c4bb4g3 Yeah, I personally thought MM looked too similar. Also just thought about it, that was when I got a PS2 aswell. Only went back to the N64 for nostalgia after that.

I am curious if there is a good what to emulate 64 games. I wouldn't mind going back and playing MM now

[XxSequndaEtapaXx]

@antigravity19 Yea if your computer can handle it there is a N64 emulator. I personally use Project 64 it works pretty well

[antigravity19]

@XxSequndaEtapaXx What type of controller do you use with project 64?

[XxSequndaEtapaXx]

@antigravity19 I personally use a Logitech gaming controller. However you can use any usb controller. Like a wired Xbox 360 controller, it has to be wired tho it cant be the wireless with a plug and play charger

[imcoolurnot3000]

@hcbailly will you be doing super metroid or any donkey kong country games?

[gshowfan199]

I thought the only game which had secret secrets in it was Final Fantasy XIII. ;)

[Thanatos388]

Didint it take two hours of dialogue until you get the chance to save in Persona 4?

[tbpbTB2010]

Ah Turok 2 Seeds of Evil..... the game that made me realize how much I took save points for granted. It would ON AVERAGE take you about 3-4hrs just to find a save point! HOLY COW!

[Thanatos388]

I hated getting the book, took me three hours to find out you could bash the bookshelf.

[Torqegood]

>Game that doesn't let you save for hours

Persona: Snow Queen quest?

[MasterLinit]

In Twilight Princess, there are Hidden Skills. And they are awesome!!!! ^o^

[jescis0]

The jumping rabbit gives a random item like heart, rupee, or similar.

[MrSUBURBANLEGEND]

those monsters at the beginning were igores HCBailly



[DelmaruLP]

You really should get the ice rod. It helps with the next boss immensely.

[AND4H]

If you take a fish to the man who sold you a bottle, he can buy the fish from you for more than the rupees you would earn from throwing the fish in the water.

[skyrunner14]

You know, I've never actually beaten this game... but seeing you start this LP, it made me get out my old SNES and this.

[CuttSoldier]

I *think* if you mess with the sign by the quiet guy, he gets mad.

[Quickmind01]

@CuttSoldier Yeah, he'll chase you down and throw a fit.

[DoctorGreen97]

HC is one of the games you are playing final fantasy V because the saves on that are ridonkulous

[TheBoshman95]

they have a dash in Skyward Sword, but it's no pegasus dash...

[TheBoshman95]

I'm not a huge fan of western RPGs either!

[SuperGohan500]

does anyone else notice that in the little puff of smoke that comes off when you kill an enemy, it kinda looks like a shy guy's face?

[BankaiKisuke]

Hey HCBailly, lift up the sign next to that man near the end who said nothing except ... ... ... if this is the right zelda game I'm thinking, just walk around and you'll something funny will happen.

[TheResolution5]

9:41 "Get another piece of power! ...Let's grab a fish." ^_^

[MrRandall171]

@HCBailly at 2:05 the soliders are over at this castle because they figured she was in another castle

[strickler80]

I never knew you could talk to them blobs after using the magic powder.

[GruppeSechs2004]

Yes, finally someone who's disinterested in Skyrim!

[MarioLazor]

HCBailly, did you know you can cheese the next boss with the ice rod?

[SilentWeaponsIII]

@6:21 And I know that "three hour dungeon" that HC's referencing is the Great Crystal in FFXII :D

[parnash]

It's a Secret Secret to everyone!

[BrianD0313]

you can use the pegasus boots to run into the cracks in the walls. Sometimes they might open up without needing bombs

[gamerkid44311]

I agree with you HCBailly I don't like western RPGS that much either. But I guess Skyrim was an okay game. But still not my favorite RPG ever.

[SilentWeaponsIII]

A few times I've beaten the Armos Knight with just the Boomerang. Took a while though...

And I'm not that familiar with the Skyrim games either. I've seen some vids on YouTube, but I can't see how you can play an RPG in the first person. Would be a bit uncomfortable to me.

[JP317]

I've been playing a lot of Skyrim lately, and yeah that's nearly all I've been doing as that game is addictive as hell.

In Skyward Sword you can hold down A to run for a little while, you have a stamina meter and if that depletes you walk really slow. The thing I found most strange about SS is that there is no boomerang in the game, it felt odd playing a Zelda game without one.

[Duorsa]

@JP317 but it is replaced by the amazing Beetle!! I live that item, such a fantastic addition and makes more sense for picking up and dropping items than a boomerang. I love the boomerang, but its cool that they changed it up.

[ChouhouinNeko]

game that only lets you save every 3 hours...... Xenosaga?

[grenadier42]

"What does the pendant do?!

NOTHING! :D"

I don't know how you managed to make that so effective, but I nearly pissed myself laughing. Thanks.

[Leo11967]

Fezzick, tear his arms off.

[Unclevertitle]

@Leo11967 Oh, you mean this gate key!

[HCBailly]

@Leo11967 Oh, you mean THIS gate key.

[jedimastermagus]

@HCBailly Win. LMFAO!

[choupetto85]

You should change the last sentance for : Have a good evening ^^

[Sum1Important]

Heh, personally, I've also loved beating the first boss with only the sword xD It's possible to attack them with normal slashes with the sword, but the spin attack obviously does more damage. But really, I've always preferred to fight them with the sword because... I don't know. I guess I just do ^^; Maybe I just like the boss music a lot, heheh.

[JacksonWinger]

i first got this game in i think 2004 or 2005 on gba, and i thought the graphics were really good even tho its 1991 haha :P

[Smartass7777]

HCBaily, have you considered doing a Let's Play of any one of the Megami Tensei games? They're quite good in my opinion, particularly the Persona series.

[RagingRabite]

Wait what, of course you could get the Ice Rod if you wanted to, all you need is bombs if memory serves me right.

[MrDoomGape]

@RagingRabite that's correct and actually you can get it before the first dungeon even.

[juanito2109]

Playing AC revelation today, turkish guard throw a stone at me, remember HC Bailly....

[RagingRabite]

I used to play a lot of J-RPGs but then I took a scattershot of FFXII, FFXIII and Cross Edge to the knee...

Serious almost every newer J-RPGs I know doesn't appeal to me AT ALL though I used to play a bunch of older games.

[toaker]

You play WOW dont you HC? So you must like Western RPGs, besides Westerners invented the RPG genre but the Japanese perfected it.

[scarletspeed7]

Dear HCBailly,

Skyrim is an amazing, well-written, engrossing game that is more than a game: it is an experience. And I think you would hate it.

[speyeker]

I forgot how good this game was. I just love the world of Hyrule in this game. There are little secrets EVERYWHERE, so exploration is key. That's where the fun really comes from, rather than say puzzles in dungeons (which aren't very common).

[ElfSponge]

Take a fish to the guy that sold you the bottle in the village, he'll give you rupees for it :P

[Blackdrake1]

@ElfSponge Not just Rupees, A Full Magic Refill, Some Arrows, and Bombs too. Maybe a Heart as well

[ShyBoy6D9]

I'm not really a big fan of western RPGs myself. Every now and then, I'll play one that I get addicted to for a while, but I've never found any to be GOOD so much as addicting.
