I think Majora's Mask was utter crap. The whole using the masks to turn into different things was cool, but the time limit and the save system were what kept me from finishing the game.. How are you supposed to save?

To this day I don't know why I kept the game for the whole week that I had it, just to start over from the very beginning every single time..

Saving happens when you play the Song of Time to return to the dawn of the first day. Everything is reset--except for important items, like weapons, masks, songs, and the bosses' remains. What's so complicated about that? You must achieve something in 144 minutes or less.

ShadowBringer? Who said that?

Glorb.

Yeah, I'm not sure if I ever legitimately beat the game, start to finish. I mean, I think I've started at least three levels on two different iterations (original--with hologram!--and the GCN remake), but I think I only beat the final boss on my brother's level while he was in the bathroom.

I actually did play BHA, just for kicks, and decided to name my horse ShadowBringer.

Well, you can play the inverted song of time and double that time. I always did.

Yeah, it's 72 minutes normally. I said 144, for the Inverted Song of Time. I wish the Song of Double Time were more of what it claims to be--instead of just taking you to the next sunrise or sunset, it should have made things go twice as fast.

What the heck would be the point though?

You've never done the Kafei side quest, have you? So much waiting around for something, and you can't skip ahead in time because you'd skip an event...
Also, it'd make the postman look pretty funny.

I guess I just sucked at the game, then.. I never could figure out the save system, and was stuck in what I'm assuming was the first dungeon (helping the monkeys)?

.. which I just realised is similar to the first dungeon in TP (which I got through only needing help like once).

Majora's Mask was pretty avant-garde for a game. We need more games with time travel as an actual gameplay element these days. All Things Devours is a good example.

Yeah, in retrospect, it kinda seems like a Zelda game Nintendo would make if they all turned emo.

All right. When you just use the quote tags like that it's a bit hard to tell who said what. Did you ever notice the quote button (

But no one WANTED to get crushed by the moon, except one or two insane NPCs I may have forgotten or Anju and Kafei who simply had no regrets anymore (after you complete the sidequest)
