Really enjoyed this set. Thanks for the challenging but fair achievements.
Lawerfell 26 Nov 2023 14:18
Mastered it! Swordless was real tough but I did it!
pfontaine147 14 Dec 2023 01:14
Mastered (#9)! Really excellent set. I feel like I've gotten more out of playing LoZ now than when I beat the first quest on my own as a kid (I never found the red ring!). I especially appreciate being pushed to complete the deathless, ringless, and swordless runs. I do feel true mastery of the game and it tested my knowledge and creativity in dealing with the voluntary restrictions. A very satisfying and exemplary set.
randresen77 23 Jan 2024 04:08
Finally mastered it after about a week. The hardest achievement has to be the swordless quest for the first quest.
Kaneh 28 May 2024 22:29
+1 for the swordless challenge being in a subset, it's a fun challenge but is it a core game achievement? I've noticed this in many games on RA (Castlevania Whipless/Sub Weaponless), there really should be a voting system.
manevane 11 Jul 2024 18:40
Thank you for the set.
Muryoshi 28 Jul 2024 14:45
Finally Mastered! I could have finished sooner if I wasn't lazy.
mynoots 30 Jul 2024 04:31
Mastered! Loved the extra challenge, definitely makes the game more interesting!
Febaske 8 Aug 2024 09:22
Mastered!
TrashGang 10 Aug 2024 03:11
I randomly decided to take a gander at the "supported game files". Let's just say, I was very surprised.
Taltalon 22 Aug 2024 20:34
Mastered! Getting 8-bit master wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, completing the second quest without getting killed would be a lot more difficult. I'm happy I don't have to do any such thing.
HungryWalnut 2 Sep 2024 17:34
Mastered #11.
OG Zelda is pretty polarizing.
Like, the game itself hasn't aged the most gracefully in how clunky it feels to later games. Ganon is just awful game design. But past that, it's a fine game.
As far as the achievements side goes, not that I would imagine most people would or COULD, but it's shame that you can't combine Swordless and Deathless. I imagine this could be fixed by making the final Patra the end of Swordless though.
Really grateful you don't need to do Ganon, or say, 4-headed Gleeok damageless.
Swordless is actually really fun (Wouldn't recommend to combine with Ringless like I did), where early on you're really fighting nail and tooth to get ANYTHING. The difficulty is good, but if this was on a more smooth game, it might be the best way to play such a game.

This is my first experience with a Zelda game and i really feel like i have mastered it now. Just finished the deathless run as my last achievement and i had memorized basically everything from the previous runs. Really good set, amazing game - ill' never play this again i think!

Day 2 and ive actually completed a decent amount of achievements already. Game's pretty fun. Though it's like the 7th time im playing through it lol. Darknut cheevos are crazy hard but doable and felt nice to get done. Hoping the rest of them are just as fun

Day 13... i think. I lost my sanity (4 cheevos left, the 3 swordless and 8bit master)

Day...I dont know, a fucking million or something. I just beat 1 of the 2 swordless runs and i think im gonna cry cuz i need to do it once more on quest 2... I would rather eat shit. The gameplay has gotten so repetitive that it just feels like a chore now. Cant blame the game nor the creator of the cheevos. Im just getting tired. Anyways, hope i will still be sane by the end of this

2nd quest swordless is way easier. All you need to do is save up some keys and get the wand early.
