I actually died in Zelda and it wasn't because I got swarmed on by angry pigs, suprisingly.

I died on Outset Island, I went into the cave where you get the Triforce charts in to take some Pictothingy's of some of the rarer enemies. I noticed in the room that you get the Triforce chart from, you can use your Mirror shield to destroy a stone head. This opens up another load of caves that are about 10 times harder than anything else i've seen in the game.

Needless to say after much battling I ran out of fairy's and died. Wasn't really properly prepared for the fight but damn it was fun.

Next time I'm gonna pack some of Grannies after birth and a few more fairy's and teach those mongs a lesson. If you haven't found these rooms I suggest you head straight for them, though be prepared or you'll get ya a-ss kicked.

I liked that section on Outset Island. I did it before I got the mirror shield and remembered that there was one of those statues to be destroyed using the light, so I went back and did that, then found there was room after room of even harder fighting to be done.
Above anything else it shows how great the combat engine is.

Use the deku leaf, then run up and smack them with your sword when they lie on the floor.


Oh yeah, I saw theat big statue when I went through the first time. Did the whole lot in one sweep, using only one bottle of Grannie's soup.

I was pleased, yet annoyed when the end result was a heart piece.

Yey did this bit tonight.

That ruled.

There's one room with about 50 of those guys who are always on the rafts coming at you. Another room where you go to the middle and a massive circle of those Chu things appears, half of them are electrified which is very annoying.

Mucho a-ss kickage....maximus..

Oh and the death scenes pretty pants, it's like OOT where Link just falls over. Pity his head doesn't pop and cascades of blood don't fly from his severed stump as he looses control of his bladder and soils himself all over the floor......maybe in the next game?

I was nearly killed by the Wind Temple boss today. Good thing I had a fairy in a bottle. What happens when you die in the game anyway? Is it like Oot where Link just drops dead, or is it something different?

I did this second time - is the one one where you drop many times?

And the ring of fire around the hole?
The first time I was one enemy away from completing it - all with no fairies or juice things.

Did it second time though.

Oh yay.

Did it have loads of bats in one?

Bah. In the first of those rooms after the statue I killed the blue skulls but the flame round the next hole didn't... go out.

Restarted, never went back.

Next time...

I've drowned once, thanks to some crappy ladder. Other than that I haven't even got to annoying flashy-ness.

In LttP i died all the time.
