Today’s game is Ocarina of Time. After getting the Biggoron sword last time, I decided to tackle the fire temple today. I cleared it all in one fell swoop. Going into it, i don’t know why but it’s occurring to me that this is the first time i’m hearing the original version of the Fire Temple theme. I don’t know if last time i play SoH i somehow played a version of the game without the old theme or if i played it with the sound off, but this is the first time i’m hearing that chanting.
I ran into my first Like Like, which, i hate these guys. I’ve hated them with a burning passion ever since i played Majora’s Mask for the first time and they didn’t drop my stuff back for some reason. That one took my shield and tunic but luckily i was able to get them back after killing it.
There was an elevator that i discovered had a lava texture on the underside i don’t usually see. I usually only pass through this room once so seeing it was something new.
To end of tonight’s post, i wanted to show off the boss room. For an overglorified game of Whack a Mole, the game does an awesome job of making it feel epic. I was able to clear the boss fight fast too using the Biggoron sword to deal extra damage. It’s really come in handy, especially when i forget to use the shield. I’m definitely switching back to the master sword though because it paired with the shield is just a badass combo.
So close! 365 is right around the next 4 corners.
Honestly, every time I hear the Fire Temple chanting, I feel like I accidentally joined a cult — but hey, at least the music slaps.
What a great game! That’s a fun temple too.
