Busting 20 Zelda Myths

I'm busting 20 Legend of Zelda myths and rumors in today's video. Questions you've always wondered like can you beat the running man in Ocarina of Time or is Link really dead in Majora's Mask?

In this video, I'll take a look at a complete history of Zelda rumors. Our journey covering major rumors starts with The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time on the Nintendo 64, and goes all the way to Breath of the Wild on the Nintendo Switch. Can you see an Arwing in Ocarina of Time? If you give a dog some meat will he lead you to treasure in Breath of the Wild? Does the game The Legend Zelda Valley of the Flood exist? You'll know soon enough.

the square "hole" underneath zora's domain is fascinating to me because it implies that they probably wanted to put an entrance to SOMETHING at some point in development, but either forgot or simply scrapped it.

The fishing rod Ganondorf distraction is always funny. He's flabbergasted you would actually whip out a simple fishing rod during the ultimate duel to determine the fate of Hyrule and The Realm of Twili.

"Because the pyramid is unreachable, many people have speculated that this is a secret dungeon."
How have we evolved to the point that we think something inaccessible is just a well-hidden secret

[chloe_gpt]

Heard from an interview that running man can’t be beaten because the devs didn’t have a good reward for such an achievement, and so they made him unbeatable instead.

The Unicorn Fountain was probably the beta design for fairy fountains in general. A lot of beta images and data suggest OOT initially was made to hew closer to prior games. For example, Octoroks were just 3D versions of their LOZ selves and beta text suggests the Spirit Medallion would have let Link turn into a fairy for exploring, like one of the spells in AOL. The fairy design in the screenshot looks a LOT like if the fairies from the first two games were translated into 3D.

I wish more modern games had these interesting myths. Love the video!

The dog treasure in BotW is fun because its truly a dog treasure. The chest only appears once you feed the dog.

[SilentDecepticon]

I think BOTW’s loading screen tells you about the dog thing. If you befriend them they’ll lead you to secrets or something like that.

Huh, I didn't know that the bunny hood stops stalchildren from spawning at night. I feel like no matter how well I think I know Ocarina of Time, it continues to surprise me with tiny detail mechanics that I've never encountered before, and that's coming from someone used to make ROM hacks and study the game religiously back in the day.

You can also distract the Skyward Sword boss the same way with the bug net.

9:12 Im sure many people have seen it but even if you finish the race in 0 seconds, the Running Man is coded to still beat you. I forget what time it says he beat it in though.

Bro I love the fishing rod Easter egg it’s funny because why would you pull it out in the final fight lol

[PrincessWynterSkye]

You should call it confirming myths rather than busting myths since your videos tend to find more that turn out actually true in the end. It's always a lot of a fun to see you explain them in these videos. I always loved messing with the fishing rod on the final tp Ganon fight.

Let me tell you one thing: in OoT, you _do_ get the Triforce... of Courage. Here's how you do it:
Step 1: Open the Temple of Time.
Step 2: The Triforce of Courage gets revealed when Zelda does.

[ethanharris]

Valley of the flood sounds like a really cool concept for a game

[Darkpoet]

It amazes me, I've been playing Oot since I was7. Ive gotten full completion multiple times and here I am 24 years later still discovering things about it!

[the_javinator]

I can't tell you how many times I've tried to beat the running man in Ocarina of Time. I didn't find out till many years after that it isn't possible. So much time wasted 😂

[Jason_W.]

This is actually my first time learning about some of these Zelda myths. Great video, man!

Basically the Unicorn Fountain was a beta design for the generic Fairy Fountains, but was replaced with the Stonehenge structure you see instead, and the water walls were moved to the Great Fairy Fountains.

[EighmyLupin]

I remember hearing about a myth in OoT.

Where you could throw a bomb into the lava under Ganondorf's castle.

If the bomb made it to the middle of the lava lake there would be a hole.

And if the bomb fell in the hole and exploded, you would unlock a hidden temple that had the triforce in it.

(the lava does move toward the middle of the lava lake, and their is a hole thingy there, but it's just a texture and of course nothing happens)
