Daily Debate: What Is Your Proudest Brag-Worthy Moment In the Legend of Zelda Series?
Posted on January 08 2025 by Kat Vadam
Playing games can bring a multitude of successes and make a player feel all of the feelings. It can be frustrating, it can be something exciting, it can even be the source of pride. No shame, no worries — just an accomplishment we hold near and dear to our hearts, something we can point to in conversation and say, “I did that!”
To those who have felt accomplished in gaming, it can feel great. No, scratch that. It can feel incredible. It’s like all our hard work for however long has finally paid off, all the frustrations made worthwhile in a single instant as we finally see that beautiful success on screen.
In the Zelda series, there is no shortage of opportunity for these moments. From finding ways to break the game in Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom (castle bookcase trick, anyone?), to somehow finding every Piece of Heart in an Ocarina of Time randomizer, to even finally completing that game you started years ago as a kid, each story has someone behind the screen, working and sweating to see that success in pixels. And that is truly beautiful, my friends.
So, I want to hear it all. I don’t care how small or big you think it might be, or how many people have done it before. If it is something you worked yourself to the brink for in the Zelda series, tell the world. Brag about it.
