| 16 Dec 3:14 2019 |  | You mean comment #1, since yours shifted it up... except I guess this one this one booted it off the list entirely. Oh well. I still stand by what I said earlier though: I'd never have tried that challenge otherwise, and had a blast doing so. | ||
| 16 Dec 3:18 2019 |  | And now he means comment zero. I still think swordless takes all of the fun out of the game. It's completely antithetical to the way it's meant to be played. I think that kind of achievement is exactly what bonus sets are for. | ||
| 16 Dec 6:56 2019 |  | If I may put my two cents in, I think all this achievements is perfect described mastered game. Its not do hard doing no damage, swordless or beat game without continue in Zelda 2 set, as you can think. | ||
| 16 Dec 6:57 2019 | | But its fun and give you feeling of beating real challenge. | ||
| 16 Dec 15:22 2019 |  | I don't believe in any degree that 200%ing a game should be easy. The swordless run takes mastery of the game to complete and is not just some random RNG based achievement. This has been my favorite set so far on RA. | ||
| 16 Dec 15:28 2019 | | It doesn't require "mastery", it requires you to jump through a bunch of hoops that have literally nothing to do with mastering the game. And yes, it also requires RNG to be on your side. | ||
| 16 Dec 15:31 2019 | | Having achieved it, I completely disagree. Not only was it fun, but it wasn't that impossible. | ||
| 16 Dec 22:19 2019 |  | I can get behind moving Swordless to a Bonus set, though I don't think it's exactly necessary either. Though at this rate, all the bonus sets will be more fun than the regular sets. :P I'm not a fan of demoting the achievement to leaderboard though. | ||
| 17 Dec 5:26 2019 |  | Swordless isn't that RNG dependent. Bombs are set drops. There are secret rupee spots that are easily accessible. I think it's a creative and fun achievement, looking forward to challenging it. Don't like it? Try the GBA Classic version. | ||
| 24 Dec 7:47 2019 |  | I should have specified earlier, my beef with swordless was moreso that you had to do it TWICE. So basically the whole time you're spending with this game, you can't play normally at all. That's what I disliked, one time wouldn't have been as bad. | ||
| 13 Jan 12:59 2020 |  | This really isn't that hard. Once you get the wand, it's basically like a normal play-through. Great set, lots of fun. | ||
| 16 Jan 12:47 2020 | | I love this game. It's what got me into gaming. But I swear by the sacred Doritos... I am never playing it again. () | ||
| 29 Jan 4:01 2020 |  | i figured zelda would get butchered by ridiculous challenges | ||
| 5 Jul 20:33 2020 |  | This was a very fun mastery for me. Swordless was a really interesting way to re-experience Zelda 1. | ||
| 15 Aug 15:11 2020 |  | So I put together a Retro Achievement Review for this title. It also has some supplemental maps and notes I created to help you get those swordless cheevos. https://youtu.be/us5_QLPL5FU | ||
| 27 Aug 23:49 2020 |  | I had some trouble with the "Fully Loaded and Upgraded" (Second Quest) and was confused because I had acquired all the items. The trick to unlocking it for me, was to purchase the food again, because I had used it after purchasing it. | ||
| 27 Aug 23:50 2020 | | I also see that there is no achievements for the third or fourth quests. *shrug* | ||
| 27 Aug 23:56 2020 | | There is no third quest | ||
| 28 Aug 0:07 2020 | | Technically there is... but that's a Satelliview ROM, not the original game. Any cheevs for that would be in a different set. | ||
| 10 Oct 23:35 2020 |  | I also think that Swordless deserves to be in the core set. It's not terribly difficult, especially once you get the wand, and it doesn't require any glitches to complete. | ||
