10 Feb 2019 5:10		Best Zelda game <3
19 Apr 2019 18:28		Got all the achievements now, great game! Can't wait for the Switch remaster haha
19 Apr 2019 18:29		BTW used latest retroarch with the Gearboy core, everything was smooth
25 Aug 2019 18:42		I really dislike the preoccupation with the Zelda sets to defeat all the bosses without losing hearts. Because when everyone plays 2D Zelda, they obviously play it for the deep engrossing combat, not the exploration and puzzles.
25 Aug 2019 18:43		This particular one is worse because you're not allowed to use savestates, even when not on hardcore mode, because then the achievement won't pop. Like, the whole point of having hardcore mode or not is to make the choice available
25 Aug 2019 18:52		A good set showcases the strengths of the gameplay, not the weaknesses. When a large portion of a set is based on combat that's widely considered lackluster by fans, those flaws are magnified and it's game-ruining.
25 Aug 2019 20:50		The combat is not flawed. You have to learn the boss fights (boss attack patterns & which items to use) and most of them can be consistently done without damage once you do.
1 Sep 2019 22:53		sadly that look dont working with the french version of the game.
1 Sep 2019 23:03		Yes i'm sad me too, not french version :( do you think the old game zelda link awakening no DX in grey version working in french european version ??
27 Sep 2019 19:32		Agregaran el set de logros a la versin en espaol del parche de Lukas&cue? Es que la versin que est ah no hay forma de conseguirla ...
16 Oct 2019 14:14		I was trying to give No Damage to the first boss and collect the music instrument, and none of those achievements came. The ones I received were the upgrade on bombs and arrows (which happened before activating alone for me).
16 Jun 2020 16:51		Mastered!
17 Jun 2020 1:29		What these [m] are supposed to mean?
17 Jun 2020 1:34		It means "missable", for example if you get hurt by a boss you can't fight it again without reloading a save. If you save afterwards, you have to restart the whole game. Missable.
17 Jun 2020 1:41		We used to have an asterisk instead, but despite my preferences this method became the norm.
17 Jun 2020 2:34		I personally prefer the [m], easier to ctrl+f for me personally.
19 Sep 2020 3:45		Sep 18th 2020 @ 11:34pm 100% Completion.
28 Feb 2021 22:21		Mastered! thanks for such an awesome set, the icons were really nice
24 Mar 2021 3:15		I was goofing around naming a file as "ZELDA" and it changed the music of the menu D:
9 Jul 2021 17:56		Mastered! Super fun set, though some of the missables (Shell Collection in particular) are REALLY missable.
