Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

Originally streamed on 06/28/2021 Polarizing at best, Panned at worst. We take a look at Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, released in North America on December 1, 1988. A lot has changed since Link's first outing in Hyrule. This a side scroller that is heavy on combat. It also has magic system, limited lives, and experience points. Lots of fans have thrown their hat in the ring, giving their opinions. Today, I do the same.

Originally streamed on 07/05/2021 We grind a bit. We get some upgrades. We get introduced to the game's second palace. Yikes!

Originally streamed on 07/05/2021 It was smooth sailing until I get to one of the most difficult parts of the game. Two hours into playing Zelda II. Man, what were they thinking? It's still fun though!

Originally streamed on 07/12/2021 If I didn't study up on the overworld map, the maps inside Death Mountain, grind, and have a little luck, Death Mountain would have been a three-part episode, for sure.

Originally streamed on 07/14/2021 More grinding! More upgrades! Grinding in a Zelda game really isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I could use a longer reaching sword though.

Originally streamed on 07/21/2021 Maybe it was the stress of job at the time. Maybe I was still worried about packing for a trip I was taking. But a few days rest and seeing things with a fresh pair of eyes, I went back to clear the third Place in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link! This was the beginning of a two-part stream!

Originally streamed on 07/21/2021 In the second half of the stream on July 21, 2021. We complete the fourth palace. We do some exploring and find some neat things! And I can't believe, after around 75 streams and videos. This one actually looks good! Video quality wise. Listen, Zelda II has a lot of issues. And I'm racking my brain on what I would do to make it better. But it really, really isn't that bad.

I decided earlier that I was going to beat Zelda II that night, regardless of how long it would take. This is the first hour of a 4 1/2 hour stream! Hyrule is a little bigger than I thought it would be in Zelda II. I really need a map. Plus, any sort of sword upgrade is sorely needed.
