Years ago I got into a debate with someone over just how far reaching Majora's Mask's influence is. I found that old debate and wanted to share the other person's argument.
His argument was that Majora's Mask was able to influence Skull Kid before he even knew about the mask. Skull kid attacked the Happy Mask Salesman because the mask made him do it.
I disagreed with that argument, and still do. Skull Kid attacked the HMS because he wanted to. The Mask didn't make him do it, because Skull Kid didn't even know the mask existed until he was rummaging through the HMS's backpack and found it. I say one actually has to know the mask exists for it to exert any kind of influence on the person.
Thoughts?
Kravik said:I say the mask can effect everyone. Not only the one who wears it, as is apparent by playing the game.. (It was the mask all along.)
You people claim the mask must be worn, for it to effect the skull kid? Right?
Where in reality, it was the will of the mask (again,) all along!
