Personally I think Link's statue is actually evidence of him NOT being dead. The other statues have blank dead eyes while Link's does not. I think the statue is more like a reflection of himself, showing that he is not as stoic and confident as he tries to present himself as a hero. Inside he hides fear and pain.

That scene with Darmani and the Gorons as "The Song of Healing" plays, it gets me every time.

Always felt Cremia was trying to get Romani drunk to dull her senses. Keep her asleep so she didn't have to be aware of her final moments.

Slight clarification regarding the "ghosts" in the Romani Ranch segment.

Those are actually aliens who's design is based on one singular reported alien encounter with an alleged alien creature dubbed the "Flat Woods Monster" and said alien actually has a good amount of of popularity in Japan to have both toys made of it along with numerous appearances in videogames.

I saw a comment on a different video (one about the Anju/Kafei quest) where someone said "OoT may have been the better game, but MM was the superior _experience"_ and really truer words couldn't have been spoken.

[dillonyoung]

Links a real bro for burying that zora and paying respects. Def adds some depth

[CrashWeezerman]

I love Majora's Mask. To me the game feels more melancholy than creepy. I find the fan theories about Termina's & Ikana's lore more interesting than the creepy pasta theories. Why does Stone Tower Temple have a Triforce? What is the relationship of the Giants to the gods of Hyrule? Who was the tribe that created Majora's Mask? I don't really like the idea that Link was dead all along.

Every copy of majora’s mask isn’t different however every save file is actually different, and it relies on the name of the save file. Differently named save files have different star patterns in the sky during night time, that is the extent to how every save file is different unfortunately.

Glad to see my favorite Zelda game get some love. MM was always the most eerie Zelda game to me, probably because of the plot and fan rumors. Shout-out to you, Sacrow

For the Romani event, where she's gonna be given Chateau Romani, I always thought that she wasn't being given it as her first and last grown up thing. I thought she was given alcohol so that she wouldn't be aware of what was about to happen, not sure why I imagined it like that when I was younger but it did fit the vibe of this game

[jewjewsbizarreadventure]

Majora's mask as a game is pretty similar to the works of Edgar Allen Poe; it makes you sad but makes you be sad in a productive way.
I didn't have the best childhood growing up and a game like majora's mask tackling such a dark subject matter actually was a weirdly effective way of confronting a lot of my emotions.

Elegy of Emptiness is one of my favorite Majora's Mask songs, too.

[AndresElPatronFH]

Oh man you have no idea how just made my night. let's get into some Majora's Mask babyy

[argentum]

i can’t believe i lost the game because of you, sacrow. you give me a false sense of security with my favorite game and then hit me with that save file

[andrew_gaming]

Majoras mask is one of those games that just feels alive sometimes

[ApeEscapeLover]

I've played MM a lot. That being said, there's something strangely comforting about Sacrow explaining to me that all the things I found unsettling actually were unsettling. Makes me feel like I'm not a wuss even though I definitely am

[burgruk]

I couldn't tell from the thumbnail if I've already started watching this video or not.

I love Majora's Mask, but it's also uniquely eerie to me. I don't want to go into details as to how or why, but I lost most of my memories from roughly age 12-15. I vaguely remember being obsessed with Majora's Mask during this time. This was before the remake came out, and apparently I wanted to play it so badly that I bought a used N64 and copy of the game. (Not sure why I did this when it would have been available on the Wii Virtual Console at the time.) I have no recollection of this, it was a surprise to me years later when I found an N64 and a few games tucked away in a cabinet, and starting up the cartridge to find a save file with quite a bit of progress. I thought I had only ever played the 3D remake. Now, playing the original Majora's Mask not only brings me the feelings of sadness, doom, and hope that were intended, but something else always lingers over me too. It's a sort of uncanny nostalgia. The game feels like something I created in a dream, like it shouldn't exist and I most definitely shouldn't be able to play it. The 3ds remake doesn't conjure up these feelings, just the original.

[PlebEthan]

Dude I get more nostalgic looking at you start the game on a crt than I do playing the game myself

[kimackerman]

Majora's Mask was the first Zelda game I played on my 3ds, i always found the game extremely creepy. It would've been a simple game without the deep dive of the many characters and how melancholic it is. I like to think that it is purgatory one way or another and Link is there to help them pass on.
