Tier Forces Heroes Gets Spooky With This Ghost-Themed Episode
Posted on October 23 2022 by Sean Gadus
Welcome ghouls and goblins! Tier Force Heroes is back with more fun Zelda content for fans to enjoy! In this haunting episode, Gooey Fame, Corey Richmond, and Skull Kid Nico discuss a variety of the ghosts and spirits that appear in the Zelda series! The crew reflect on the Poe Sisters from Ocarina of Time, the Hero’s Shade from Twilight Princess, ??? from Majora’s Mask (the hand in the Stock Pot Inn) and many more ghosts and ghouls! For this special episode, the Tier Force Heroes use their own special tier list to discuss how scary or spooky each spirit is.
This episode is a mix of light-hearted humored and thoughtful reflection. One of the highlights of the video is the crew’s discussion of the Ghosts from Majora’s Mask, which are also referred to as “They” or “Them” by Romani. These creatures are interesting because they also fit into the role of extraterrestrials, and the design of the Ghosts is based on the Flatwoods Monsters urban legends from West Virginia. The video concludes with a discussion of Death Sword from Twilight Princess. The crew discusses how the designers creates an ominous atmosphere by having the sword sealed in the ground to before the start of the fight and by requiring the player to use their wolf senses to see the spirit.
