My 3Speaking Today
ā Hey, what's up, players! I am very pleased to be once again in this space provided to me by the wonderful creation of the Internet, that being my 3Speak channel, where among many things I can share with you my passion for gaming. Know that you are welcome here on my part. And as is already customary in this Zelda: A Link to the Past, due to its constant enemy respawn mechanic, going from point A to point B on the Hyrule map turns out to be no easy task, taking into account the large amount of opposition we usually encounter along the way with all those evil troops roaming every corner of Hyrule. Well, in today's gameplay we continue heading north in search of the Red Pendant, which is the last Pendant we have yet to obtain of the three that Sahasrahla entrusted us to find. On the way north we come across two colorful characters who are Lumber Jacks busy chopping down a tree, known as the Bumpkin Brothers. Said brothers tell us that in the forest adjacent to their position, to the north-west of Hyrule, a strange and thick fog has appeared that makes exploration in said area difficult. Upon venturing into it we come across among many things a Master Sword, which actually turned out to be a fake sword š« and from here we exit the area to venture into a cave heading north.
ā The Lumber Jack Bros. On the way north we come across the Bumpkin Bros, who are quite colorful Lumber Jacks and who help us along the way since inside their residence we can find a few hearts that turn out to be of great help, especially taking into account all the opposition encountered along the way. Furthermore, behind the Bumpkin Bros' residence we come across a cave where a heart fragment is located, but for the time being it turns out to be inaccessible, so this is a puzzle that we still have pending to resolve.
ā The Fake Master Sword. Following the encounter with the Lumber Jack Bros, at their request we head further north-west of Hyrule to the hidden forest where we come across the very strange and thick fog that the Bumpkin Brothers told us about, which by the way we must mention is truly a technical feat on the part of the programmers of this Zelda installment, taking into account the hardware limitations of the Super Nintendo. Said fog adds an impressive immersive component to this forest, where the battles take on another dimension and where among other things we find a Fake Master Sword, which at first excites our protagonist, but which then shows his disappointment as we can only use it as a throwable item : /
ā We Were Swindled Again. A day of scams, as following the fraud of the Fake Master Sword we come across another swindle on Link's path, since in said forest we also encounter a bandit who offers us to open 1 of his 3 chests in exchange for 100 rupees. We therefore could not resist the temptation and fell for his game once again, players, just as you can see at around minute 06:00 of the gameplay. Finally we head to a cave to the north-east, on the way towards the Red Pendant.
Well, with nothing more to say for today, I feel very pleased with the development of this Zelda series here on my gaming channel on 3Speak, and above all I thank you for the support shown to this small 3Speak channel. Thank you for your time ā¤
