I believe that the people of Termina knew about the golden goddesses and used to worship them. Then one day the people found out about a golden treasure that was up in the heavens and the golden goddesses had it. So they built stone tower temple to reach the heavens and get the treasure (aka the triforce). The goddesses got mad and took the light arrows and turned the tower/temple so the people would fall into hell instead. The people stopped worshiping them and turned to the four giants for their protecters. Since then they don't really like the goddesses anymore and liked to disrespect them and their golden treasure.

When you think about it, the deku statue is actually the saddest. When you think about, that deku scrub was just a child when he died. It's really sad. And to think, this was also the one the deku princess loved. I mean, it's different with the deku princess then with other princesses. all the other princesses get their wedding with the one THEY loved, but the deku princess... The one she loved... He never came home... She waited so long until the butler, the dead deku scrub's father found out that his son had died. And in the comic for majora's mask, as soon as link put on the deku mask for the deku princess again, she burst into tears and started to cry and ran somewhere in the palace. You can see how much she loved that little scrub, yet, he died.

2011: hey everybody, it's chuggaconroy, welcome back to another legend of zelda majora's mask... 2017: HEY everybody, it's CHUGGACONROY! And welcome back to another LEGEND of ZELDA, SKWARD SWORD! He's grown so much.

I love the theme of this temple and I love the overall theory behind it. VortexxyGaming gave a theory about this temple as being like the Tower of Babel in Babylonian times where the people tried to build a tower to the heavens and marvel at their awesome structure. In this game, the first room you enter into in the temple, there is a big face doing the stink eye as a "screw you" to the gods of Termina. And in this pursuit of immortality and pride darkness crept into the peoples' hearts and they began fighting each other, killing all inhabitants of Ikana. The resulting overall feeling of Ikana is regret, one of the stages of grief.I love how deep the Zelda games are.

"And what do we do when we have wood? We grab on to it!"

Oh, Chugga... just goes to show what kind of fans you have! You uploaded this video years ago, and people are still watching and commenting! Like it was just uploaded yesterday!

My theory is that the Garo built the tower for the Goddess/Giant conflict. Light hurts them, light arrows are locked away in the tower so nobody could get them, also the Boss Garo himself is guarding it. Plus, in a tower built to show the Giants superiority over the goddesses they have the Giants mask there.

Thanks Nintendo of America! If I have been playing the Japanese version I would most likely throw the game out the window.

I was so disheartened when I saw they censored the Triforce-licking statues in the 3D version lol

This area is so much easier on the 3ds version! 4 item slots, plus the Ocarina being in the bottom right corner never taking up an item slot is so helpful

"If I don't get this in ten shots I should be ashamed of myself." Not gonna lie, I thought he was going to miss with all ten shots when he said that.

*I believe the ancient people who built the tower KNEW that of the land that was above them, Hyrule... and they knew of the Triforce and wanted to take it for themselves. So they began to build a tower to reach the land of Hyrule, but for whatever reason they failed.*

We know that Ikana didn't make the temple because the king said that not even 100 of his men could conquer it, so why would they build something that no one can get to or conquer. Something else before Ikana must have made it. Perhaps an ancient tribe, maybe that's why there is majora's mask's symbals in it. It also makes sense why the statues are licking the triforce, Majora would hate the golden goddesses because she's the exact opposite to them.

Plain and simple, my favourite dungeon in the series. Maybe it's the ambiguity of its backstory (I love the theory Chuggaa's talking about) or the fact that it really is like a darker version of OoT's Spirit Temple. Not only is it challenging but it is very rewarding when you consider that you receive some great items both during the temple and after you've completed it. Nice to see you explaining why this temple is so great considering its bad reputation among fans.

The theory I tend to really like about the origins of Stone Tower is that the Dark Interlopers (the ancestors of the Twili) were the builders. With the similarities between Majora's Mask and Midna's helmet patterns, it could be said that the dark, corrupting magic within both the mask and the fused shadows could be the same. Also, the statues mocking the Triforce and the goddesses would have fit in with how the Dark Interlopers for their heretic deeds.

new creepypasta: tree drowned

I remember binge-watching this let's play years ago, and it's still just as great today as it was back then. ^^

@MegaGenguy I watch him for entertainment, for information, and for therapy.

this is a great temple, but the reason why its not my favorite is because if you miss a fairy, unlike in all three other temples that are relatively easy to get around, in this temple each room takes forever, and finding missing fairies is a pain in the ass.

13:08 Fat Mario! I mean uh... Darmani ! I totally knew that

Whenever Chuggaa asks why stone isn't being melted, I groan. DIFFERENT MATERIALS HAVE DIFFERENT MELTING POINTS. EVEN DIFFERENT TYPES OF STONE. If all rock melted at the same temperature, then there would be no volcanoes, or anything like that. Hell, the whole planet would probably be just be a big ball of magma.

So many heartless soldiers with so much reference potential, makes me want to throw my keyblade across the room. Musta been from before he knew about kingdom hearts.

@3:02 HAHAHAHAHAHA I'm gonna have nightmares now!

00:13 O_o Who else saw that creepy thing pop up for a half second?

Also, I'm guessing that the Deku statue from the Elegy of Emptiness is useless since it's too light to press switches?

I have to wonder is link ever gonna you know tell people it was him in the mask? The Gorons think their mighty warrior is back only to disappear later when/if link leaves. Mikau im assuming is the father of lulu's eggs will disappear leaving Lulu even more heart broken. The frogs will never sing again in spring. etc my god seems like letting the world end would be the kinder thing to do 0-o

I’ve been binge watching this because I’m passing the time until Chuggaa uploads another episode of phantom hourglass. This was actually the first let’s play series I ever watched and it feels so good to come back to it all these years later. The last time I saw this was when I was obviously too young to understand Emile’s innuendos (I was 11). Thank you chuggaa for uploading content that never gets old

That intro was honestly really soothing to listen to lol.

Burning finger pointing up? The Termina god is Kamina????

wow when I'm watching this 3 years later

Stone Tower is probably one of my all time favorite dungeons. It's an awesome way to conclude the adventure as it makes use of every transformation + regular Link, I love the overall aesthetic of the place and the music is great.

I don't know about anyone else, but Stone Tower Temple is one of my all-time favorite Zelda dungeons. For one, it's the only dungeon whose theme music plays outside the actual temple itself (cause it's just that awesome). Also, said theme music is possibly one of the most atmospheric, awe-inspiring tunes in the Zelda series. And best of all, Stone Tower is one of the most intricately complex dungeons in Zelda history; that means you'll be hearing the epic theme music for a LONG time. I love it!

Link Linku (Deku Link-) Darmalink (Goron Link-) Linkau (Zora Link-) Sorry I just felt like I needed to-

OMG!!!! WOW!!!!! ha RIGHT at 3:00 i was feeling bad of my lide that i laugh so hard i dont know what happened!!!

"I think the Deku Scrub is the creepiest one..." But it's ADORABLE!! D:

watching this video 8 years after its release trying to alleviate my depression after finishing The legend of Korra

12:25 IS THAT MAJORA'S MASK?!?!?!? Maybe the Ikana's are the 'ancient tribe' who created the Mask! they've been wiped out, and they ARE ancient!

Here's another theory That stone tower is the King saying "Mah Boi"

I think the heartless soul of the Deku is actually really cute

Has anyone noticed? The statues that appear after playing the elegy of emptiness, are those that are dead. Mikau, Darmani....and Link. Perhaps the terminian adventure Link is on, is actually Link in purgatory.

Dungeons may be irritating but if a Dungoen isn't irritating, is it really a good dungeon?? I loved Stone Tower and I especially loved Ikana Castle and all of the lore within those areas. 💖💖💖I really do believe Stone Tower is one of Nintendo's best dungoens.

17:42 okay seriously that thing is made of wood how does not burst into flames

"Hey-eve-ry, bo-dy-it's, chuggaconroy..." My new ringtone.

For those curious, no, it is not possible to reflect the beamos' lazer beams back at them. Even with the mirror shield. Even in OoT with that game's mirror shield. The only thing that will happen is the beamos will stop FIRING ITS LAZAAR for a brief moment before charging up for another beam. The only way to defeat a beamos is by using explosives near it. Explosives include: blast mask, bombs, bomb flowers, bombchus, and the powder keg. They can't even be defeated by the megaton hammer, despite the megaton hammer being stronger than bombs. Beamos will close their eye if it is shot with an arrow, stunning them. This also sometimes happens with the hookshot if it hits the beamos in the eye, but only if the beamos takes one bomb to kill. If it takes more than one bomb, then it won't be able to be stunned by the hookshot.

you like saying thorax, try saying cephalothorax

The deku statue is cute

Man 2000-2013 brings back good nostalgia kind of makes 2020 irrelevant

XD I forgot what the song at 3:06 was for and when the shell popped out it actually scared me too! It has that creepy face plus his semi-scream didnt help either Thanks for uploading and keep up the good LPs

I was expecting it but I kinda didn’t -Emile 2011

3:00 😂 XD

About the portals, it's part of the light that shines down on you when you refight the temple's boss, and the light always spawns above the platform, even when the platform is upside-down.

This comment is 7 years late, but I just wanted to mention that the owl statue at the top of Stone Tower actually is in the Japanese version. Only the switches right in front of the dungeon are absent. I was just playing the Japanese version of Stone Temple today, so hearing him say that threw me off :P

2016 anyone?

just being the guy to say this but the spirit temple comes before the shadow temple not after...just saying

When You Did The Drum Roll Part I Went Like "OHHHHH" Cause I Love Your Puns And I Watched When I Was 6!

This series is the reason I subscribed to Chugga! And now I get to watch it again! Yay!

SHUT UP ABOUT BEN DROWNED. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WIT THE VIDEO. THE STATUE IS ONLY A TOOL FOR THE GAME.

Idk what you're Talkin about, chuggaa. That singing you did at the beginning was amazing

You never stopped to give us a good look at Mikou's Empty shell, which made me sad because he was my favourite.

lol when you played the elegy of emptiness song at the beginning of the dungeon when you saw the face of the clone up close you screamed. I jumped and crushed my arm under my desk

X'D I've watched this play through 4 times now. The puns still get me every time! XD You're very PUNNY! HAHA! XD Great game :3 I love you and your videos!!!

I was distracted from 6:51-7:31 because I was watching you trying to figure out how to get to the next box. I'm glad I'm not the only one who makes mistakes like that. lol

I couldnt stop laughing when you said " Im scared to move because the way the camera is-AHHHH!" 3:01

I, too think the Tower of Babel has nothing to do with the stone tower either. However, I can believe that this was there before some people from termina weren't too fond of the goddesses.

The Deku sculpture should be used as a hookshot point. There could be some really interesting puzzles with that, like leaving the sculpture on a moving platform.

Him: “it a drum roll.” Me: “he will rock and roll all night.”

chagga ur a really good lp maker. you keep it funny, you seem to know what your viewers want to see, like cutting the right parts out and fast forwarding the kinda boring bits, organising sided missions and story etc, you even give information about the game and things like the back stories to the game, which is really interesting, and you just don't get boring. i hope your channel gets the recognition it deserves man.

you know what chugga thats payback for the chuggascare of DONT DROWN! vyou got karmad lol XD love the work you do chugga awsome ;)

I hope he remembers to show us what the zora statue looks like because it looks like he forget to show us. ZORAS ROCK!!!

I was drinking something as you said "rolling with drums would be cool though" and i just thought "I don't get it." But then as soon as you said "get it?" I quickly took away the glass since i knew i would spit it out because I knew it was going to be funny XD

You and my cussin will get along great! Literally the same personality!

these puns are friggen' amazing

"We put a face on top of our face on top of our face..." FACEPTION

That creepy face in the middle looks a lot like Majora's Mask wouldn't you say?

Holy shit chugga, why did you make that camera angel with BEN's face? That scared the living crap out of me...

"Deku form is completely useless." "You need the might of all four forms to clear the temple."

I kind of assumed that Majora came from the tower, like perhaps the tower that Igos du Ikana said no amount of his men could take over was built to keep Majora inside, away from anyone who was tempted to put it on and wreak havoc. In my own personal headcanons, Majora was the ancient Ikana's ceremonial mask and weapon to, hopefully, be strong enough to confront the goddesses and take the Triforce. But when they tried, the goddesses had their chosen champion, who eventually became the Fierce Deity, to combat the people of Ikana. And perhaps the entirety of Termina was flipped in on itself as a form as banishment. Probably Din's idea. I would say Fierce Deity Link's point in the Zelda timeline would have to be after Skyward Sword, or very early on in the pattern of rebirth. Just an idea though. I'd love to see a game about a battle hardened Link storming through to directly protect the goddesses

I have a new creepypasta idea: Fish Drowned The story of a Zora

Chugga says in his outro: "In memory of our environment." Sad how accurate that is nowadays.

Technically, the tower itself is a part of the temple, main reason why both areas have the same theme and isn't interrupted when going between the two areas.

Mikau seems like the saddest soldier. He looks kinda sad, and no one really found out about his death...yet. But I agree. The Deku one just looks huggable

Even though you always say you are bad at singing, you are still better then 90% of popular singers.

When i was 8 my friend showed me this game. However, he only showed me the end, which he failed and i saw the moon crash into the earth and that scared the crap out of me. Nightmares for weeks.

At 3:03, "...um I'm scared to move because the way the cam...AAH!! Ahahaha....(coughing while laughing)." I'm tellin ya, this dude's a real character.

The Stone Tower is also my favorite in this game, due to the fact that every Stray Fairy is in a Treasure Chest which kinda makes it a living hell, but still this temple is awesome.

I can't get enough of the music now

your getting better at singing, keep it up

Finally decided to read the CreepyPasta about this Ben fellow.. Now I can't sleep.

YES! Time for my favorite Dungeon of all time!!!

I'm gonna miss listening to the stone tower temple music for the first time...I find it neat to do the temple at night in the game, turn off all the lights and play at night in real time.

Love this guy

The Stone Tower Temple is my favorite song in MM, though Chugga's favorite (Ikana Castle) comes at a close second.

"In memory of the environment." Well, that gives new meaning to the term Player versus Environment (PvE).

Love the music!

Is that part of your new song? " I'm funny, I'm funny, My mommy sais I'm funny"

The day this was uploaded is my Birthday!

"My mommy says I'm funny... Actually no she doesn't" Lol

Remember kids, heat and fire are NOT toys. Do not try Chuggaa's heat experiments at home.

I just assumed that the people of Termina didn't worship the goddesses and even disrespect them because Termina is like the foil of Hyrule, similar yet different in ways that highlight the other. You don't really realize how much Hyrulians cherish and worship the goddesses until you see Terminians not only never once even mention them, but blatantly disrespect them.

Thanks Skyrim, now I need to catch up with this wonderful LP!
