Season 1 - Episode 6 10 / 10 / 2020 The Zelda Chronicles None-So-Goth Show Opening / Intro There is a Checklist After a quick check in on the list of responsibilities, we introduce or quest Sarah Testone, Zelda Expert extraordinaire. Ms. Testone Two Degrees Accounting Management Information Systems The Accountant w/ Ben Affleck Main Show Topics Why do we love Zelda? We each take turns explaining why we love the whole Zelda Franchise. Carl Legend of Zelda The Cost of an NES: 200$ Sarah Link to the Past Ocarina of Time < Majora's Mask Jason Octorok List of Zelda Enemies Peahat Pols Voice Zelda as a gateway drug to RPGs Thundercats HO!!!!!!! Jason is confused about Lynel, so Sarah and Walther informant him on what must be one of the toughest and scariest enemies in Zelda. Lynel Skyrim Giant ## Burning Bushes in The Wilderness Walther talks about the Zelda TimeLine and going back and playing the original Zelda game. There is some talk of RPGs and the value of video games. Verge Zelda TimeLine The Original NES came out in October of 1985 for the American Market. Link Gets on the Marquee Not all Zelda games are instant classics or dearly beloved, so we must talk about The Adventures of Link and it is placed in the Cannon. Zelda CD-i Dragon Lair Laserdisc Theodore Rex Mario Movie [Pro Stars])(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ProStars) Back On Topic A few strangler topics here as the crew gets back on topic. Link to the Future? Puck Man Zelda Bedtime Stories Jason asks the import question, what is the main story arc of all of the Zelda Franchise, and Sarah delivers. Skyward Sword Three Goddess in Zelda Din Nayru Farore Goddess of Time Zelda TimeLine About Zelda Timeline Hyrule Historia ## Skyward Sword After a brief discussion the game play, or at least mechanics of play of Skyward Sword, there is a discussion of Wii Motion plus. Then Walther totally butchers the name of and characters in a most excellent anima. We then move on to Samurai Jack and AR Mario Kart and Zelda in the Mario Kart franchise. Okami Samurai Champloo Mugan Jin Samurai Jack AR Mario Cart Top Four Mario Kart Levels Zelda in 2000's We cover the three Zelda releases of the 2000's Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess. We start with a discussion of Ocarina of Time, and why Sarah thinks it's half finished game and Majora's Mask is a better game. The use of dream as a adjective confuses Jason, but Sarah and Walther are able to set him straight. Cheeto, the Cat Ura Zelda N64 Disk Drive Link's Awakening Wind Fish What in the middle? Walther starts off by failing the challenge of naming the three parts of the Triforce. Then the disgusting switches to what is in the middle of the Triforce. But we get back on track talking about Majora's Mask. Triforce Power Wisdom Courage Majora's Mask Five Stages Of Grief Denile Anger Bargaining Depression Acceptance Pirates Life For Me We start raping up the episode by talking about Wind Waker, one of Walther favorit games. Jason gives us a live demonstration as to why this game was so controversial. King of the Red Lion Game Boy with Wind Waker Navi Is Link a Hot Snacc? Two more games to go, this time we talk about Twilight Princess, the most Goth of all the Legend of Zelda games. This launches us into brief discussion of unrealistic portrayals of women in video games and a longer discussion about Zelda gender fluidity in Ocarina of Time. The Best Zelda Game? Walther asserts that Breath of the Wild is the best Zelda Game, despite its lack of a story. Sarah and Walther put the hard sale on Jason that he needed to play this game. The conversation flows to what makes this game so great, including in huge tracts of land, and how there is not one correct way to play the game. This Zelda is the best, because it lets you do what you want. Korok Seeds The Map Fantasy island Breath of the Wild II Trailer Hyrule Warriors Trailer One Trailer Two Zelda's Ugly Smile Walther asks the question, where we are happy with the end of Breath of the Wild, and what does not line up more with his Fan Fic. Again there is the hard sale to Jason, telling him you can ride a bear. As with all things on the internet the discussion falls into speculations of the future and what does half a second of footage in a trailer mean. Link's Hand? Blood Moon Closing Sign Off When we asked our guest, how was it, and would you come back? Aftershow My Daughter Likes Zelda Too Jason is a Millennial Jason Lets Walther Down Part Due Credits Email: [Contact Us]([email protected]) ## Guest: Sarah Testone ## Host: Carl Walther Jason Aguilar ## Music: Mabel Bradley Editor: Sorry that it's been so long between episodes, this was a long one.
