The arrows having water collision likely comes from general necessity. Since Ice Arrows could now freeze water, it meant that arrows had to hit the water to register the freezing.

I want to say thanks: because of a recent video I was FINALLY able to pull off the Fierce Deity Link outside boss rooms glitch!

In majora the camera likely doesn't move because of the real time system, often you need to wait and watch for something specific and they made sure the camera wouldn't fight you.

I’m not sure if this is subtle, but I’m surprised by how little people talk about the changes to link’s model between OOT child and MM child. There’s a lot more detail in the MM version, a comparison would be pretty cool

I think they gave grog the mohawk cause it makes him look more like the chickens he cares for.

All of the differences in roll collision were updated in the Ocarina of Time remake. You could smash pots with your rolls in the pot room in that game.

I absolutely love the camera work in this. It's stunning how good this looks

Link's boots are slightly different. And the bottle in-game actually looks like a bottle in Majoras Mask compared to being blue and pointy in Oot

I wonder if rolling to destroy the grass/pots in Majora was implemented so the player had a way of easily doing so, in case Link was without his sword (whether it was stolen by the Takkuri bird or left at the Mountain Smithy)!

6:43 Probably the feature was removed because there are a lot of times in MM where you just stand still waiting for something to happen and it would get kind of anoying to get your camera "corrected" while you're watching an especific place

Can't believe I played Majora at least 20 times and never tought to just roll into the blades of grass. I just assumed you HAD to slash them like in Ocarina.

I have 1000s of hours in MM and never knew there was a combo move on the 3rd spin

I always thought it was weird that the roll was called "attack" but it didn't do any damage. Glad they fixed that for MM.

Man, I love the outro on this video, it's just simple and comfortable. Your video format is very pleasant and you bring information that I often didn't even know about. Nice.

Awesome video! The debug camera makes these extra enjoyable! I wanted to point out a small and maybe not so remarkable detail for ocarina of time. When link is talking to an NPC, he will continue facing the head of whoever he is talking to. This is best demonstrated by talking to gaebora kaepora on top of death mountain when he offers to take you back to kakariko village. If you position link right under him and talk to him, link will spin around to face his head whenever he cranes his neck as he usually does. This might be possible to demonstrate in other instances as well.

For the rolling into objects section, my take is it was made that way in Majora's mask because there's multiple points where Link might be without a sword (upgrading, stolen, etc.) so it can prevent locking out if they're in the way.

I had no idea you could swim faster in Oot. Although it’s practically negligible.

Seems like they re-used Grogs Pants texture in his hair.

Hey I've been watching your videos alot recently and I love your attention to all these small details and videos where you show me things about Ocarina that I never knew. I have a couple cool details that I wanted to cover on my channel but I have something going on thats taking my time, and I think these would suite your next video. 1. Grog actually had a full set of hair and it's still available in the games files. This was uncovered by a discord group that's currently working to compile MM for a possible future port. There's a code present in his script that collapses his hair. That's why there's one angle where it looks invisible it's so thin. A similar thing can be done to links body using GameShark. Maybe his hair was too buggy and after collapsing just went with the mohawk to save on time. 2. This one's really small, but if you remain idle in MM the camera will zoom in slow as molasses. I have to play it sped up by x200 to notice the change but you'll be surprised how much it zooms in. Almost goes through link but eventually the distance begins to cap about a foot away. 3. Majora won't shoot lasers at Fierce Diety Link. I found this while creating a battle between Majora and Ganon. During which I studied alot of they're attack habits and values that affect the battle. Theres a code that controls when Majora can reach it's next phase of attacks (which includes the laser) but the code will deactivate it's self when you play as Fierce Diety. Change into any other mask and it reactivates, so I guess it was intentional. Thats all I got, and if you'd like to get up with me, I'd gladly get you some footage of all of this. Keep on rocking out these good videos Looygi!

Dude your quality in videos gets better every dang time! Loving all your content.

It's not the magic upgrade in Majora's Mask that makes the quick spin a red wave. It's the Spin Attack Mastery. They were able to do that because Link has magic before he gains Spin Attack Mastery. That and the powered up quick spin is what makes it worth getting.

Love all the little details, I didn't know about the spin attack animation that doubles on the third spin. Well spotted. However, there's one mistake in this video: The red beam that you get with a quick spin attack. In Ocarina of Time, it is always blue. In Majora's Mask, it will be red once you rescued all the Woodfall Stray Faeries and bring them to the Great Fairy in Woodfall. It has nothing to do with the bigger magic meter.

The amount of detail that went into majora’s mask is unbelievable given how it was made in under a year

I hate to be 'that guy', but Grog doesn't have *just* a mohawk in Majora's Mask. He's got that mohawk shaped into sick-ass liberty spikes.

The magic upgrade is separate than the spin attack upgrade in MM (swamp fairy upgrades spin and mountain upgrades magic in 64, opposite is true on 3ds) but other than that, banger video as always

Great video as always! Keep ‘em up! We love it! Thank you!!!

In short: -Skultulla were buffed -Bombs were buffed -Herbs were nerfed -Jars were nerfed -Blue bubbles received visual update -Triple spin attack combo was added -Grog was buffed A LOT -Poe collector switched faction -Water-senpai now notices Arrow-chan -Camerman ain't fearing Link anymore -Link ain't pretending he is a good swimmer anymore, nobody believed it in the first place

on 1# I always took it as the hookshot in Majora was just a different type of item and it was weaker as I think the markings on the Longshot are Hylian while the other is Ikana. Kinda like different blacksmiths.

**looks at thumbnail** Ah yes, Grog has a mohawk in MM and not one in OoT. Very subtle... XD

This channel is still my top favorite for Majora's Mask related content, differences & references. I still learn things I never knew, despite my many playthroughs.

Brilliant as always!

Another subtle detail is Link's ability to front-flip and side-flip in Majora's Mask when running off ledges. In Ocarina, he only performs a single, normal jump.

These are some cool facts! And the prodcution quality with the camera is great too!

Love this! Mostly I enjoy the character differences. Some great camera work in this video. Awesome work

This channel needs to blow up i thought id seen it all.... Looygi Bros says different...

These little changes are interesting because both games share more-or-less the same engine.

Love ur Videos ♥

I started with Majora as a kid, had a hard time at first getting into Ocarina afterward. It was purely out of annoyance that the camera would recenter

Its nice to finally get confirmation on the B mashing to swim faster, I always mashed B, but I could never tell if it actually did go faster or it were just placebo. I couldnt be bothered to find out, and now I finally know, thank you

In Ocarina of Time, Link can seamlessly keep running between the scene transitions. In Majora's Mask however he stops on the spot when entering a new location. I always this found quite irritating and was never sure why they removed the feature.

This is a cool episode. I especially like how much Nintendo upgraded interactions with water for Majora's Mask.

I just binged all the Zelda videos and then this comes out. *Chef's kiss*

i dont know the context of the old video so it could have been a mod of some kind, but i recall an old OoT video showing off swapping Grog's hair on and off with like a debug menu or something. like having Link walking around him swapping it.

Great video always

Those custom camera angles are *chef's kiss* incredible!

I loves these videos and i am play Majora mask right now so it cool to see the small details

Now I wonder if those changes that aren't about characters/setting were later also implemented in OoT 3D. Like e.g. arrows affecting the water or the roll attack breaking pots.

Being able to roll and destroy grass and jars makes it so much more effective than having to stop, pick it up, and then throw it.

Great camera work

"Pierce through a Skulltulla's carapace." Oh, Looygi Bros, you're so eloquent. Also, the custom cam continues to bring the pizazz in unprecedented amounts.

Again great video! greats from Germany (OoT Speedrunner!)

I enjoyed this video. Thank you

I never get tired of watching videos of my favorite games from my childhood.

Not sure if anybody else mentioned this but in Majora the bow will destroy a skulltula from the front, and in Ocarina it won’t! So you have to use the hookshot in ocarina and the bow in Majora. Great video as always!

Nice camera work in-game!

You can actually complete a heart container as Deku Link during the 1st 3 day cycle. You can obtain these 4 heart pieces in Clock Town as Deku Link within this cycle. The 1st one can be obtained on the Clock Tower deck after trading the Moon’s Tear. The 2nd one can be obtained by winning the postman’s game on nights 1 and 2. The 3rd one can be obtained by trading the title deed at the inn after midnight. The 4th one can be obtained by winning the Deku Playground game 3 times each day.

A very interesting topic! I never realized most of these because I always assumed that since the two games use the same assets does so would be everything else. Like, automatically would be the same. 😅

I swear to god, Grog had a mohawk in ocarina of time too! I remembered that he had a mohawk and after he gave you the saw quest item he lost his mohawk! I always thought the saw was his mohawk!

6:57 After #10 it goes to #4.

I wish they would bring back the hyper fast sword swing B button mash from Minish Cap. Unrealistic, sure, but very satisfying.

You'd think I'd have remembered that Grog didn't have a mohawk in Ocarina. It's a hairstyle that just... suits him. I dunno what it is.

Fun fact: While Link in Majora’s Mask doesnt swim as fast as he was in Ocarina of time, Fierce Deity Link can swim as fast as Ocarina of Time Link. I think thats been used on him instead. Also, you dont have to tap to swim faster as Fierce Deity as well.

Imagine if this vid came out 20 years ago, people would be flabbergasted at the cinematography

Very nice~

I could be wrong, but it looks like Grog's hair is the same texture as his pants lol

Also, the bombs explosions in Majora are way more visual realistic, with even some debris flying off the explosion afterwards

How the freak can they fit in so many little details in within such a small time period it’s crazy

I'm not 100% but I believe in ocarina if you roll with the iron boots on it can break grass and pots.

I feel like the b mashing for fast swimming was just the remnants of a scrapped idea they forgot to completely remove.

From memory doesn’t Grog have a red Mohawk when you see him in the most woods as adult link? Perhaps I’m imagining it.

Your camera skills are impressive

Note about the mash B swim speed. While it is not much of a difference normally, pressing B can outpace the pull of the water holes in the Water Temple, where swimming normally has you either stuck in place or sucked into them.

I wonder if Link's rolling destroying plants and pots in Majora's Mask was part of the programming for Goronn Link's roll ability?

The most important thing is that I NEVER get tired of OoT and MM Videos!!!! Best 2 games ever made.

ever since he got the freecam gameshark thing he sure loves using it

Does anyone know why he always does thing with this with his fist after he does some things such as the spin attack with his sword in ocarina of time?

This is... oddly fascinating!

Majora’s Mask is a really good romhack of OoT 👍

3:24 I have never seen this animation in my life

I knew most of those, but watched it just because duh, them (those) games are so nostalgic.

I did not think to try and roll at grass ever in MM. 🤯

The Gras/jar destruction with a roll was needed as link can loose his sword. There had to be a way to buy back the sword without reseting time

I didn't know rolling destroyed grass in mm! Interesting Also the grog look-alike is a completely different character as he gets lost in the lost woods in oot and becomes a monster

1:45 wait WHAT? How have I never done that? especially since you have that period at the start where.. you'd think...

In the majora mask 3d remake, you can climb ladder faster by spamming b

I also love the use of the debug camera, but the framerate choppiness throughout was a let down.

Funny enough, Grog appearance in Majora's Mask is just using OoT's unused Beta appearance. The hairstyle exist in the OoT model it just goes unused and there is even another unused one with a lot longer hair as well.

I thought for sure the hookshot was the other way around on the N64...

How do you find these things? 😍

Had no idea Link could swim faster by mashing the b button in OOT

Actually did you know gorg’s mohawk is indeed present in his oot model but the mesh is disabled

Pretty cool!

Luscious Carapace

Very nice video ! I have just a suggestion for you : it will be cool if you make more suspense in your subjects, for example for the clumps of grass in your vid you said first that in Majora the clumps of grass is breakable with the roll so it was easy to guess that in Ocarina it's not the case. But if you take first the Ocarina's example and you say for example : "Roll have no effect in clumps grass", here we can't really guess what gonna be the effect of the roll in clumps grass in Majora's Mask, so there are more suspense. Very nice video again. 👍

For the rolling to destroy grass and jars, I wonder if it has to do with the shield. The Deku shield is being worn in the OOT clips and the Hyrule shield is worn in MM, maybe the metal Hyrule shield "cuts" the grass and pots? Not sure if OP tested both shields

I wonder how many of these are deliberate changes and how many are just changes made for Majora that had downstream effects on code that already existed.

Another difference, you can shield while swimming by keeping Z and R in OOT, while in MM this option was removed, this annoys me as you can't defend against octorok and skullfish while swimming

I wish there was a 3rd part of the N64 series Ocarina of time, Majoras Mask, ???

Honestly I think I prefer all of these changes for the Majora version. MAYBE not the swimming one though, I kinda do like the idea of being able to swim faster, but that seems like a lot of work for negligible gain.

I would think that a lot of this is an effect of the expansion pack and its effect on the graphics and animations, its pretty remarkable if you ask me.
