The beginning of our Let's Play of Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Join me, the Mediocre Gamer Girl, as I fail my way through the HD release of this classic game! [NOTE: The video glitches a bit due to computer issues. :-( Humble apologies (I'm new to this!). Skip to episode 3 for better video.] Also follow me on Odysee: https://odysee.com/@M(e)GG Or...if you MUST, on YT: Outtro Music: Fallen Leaves by 陽菜/Hina https://soundcloud.com/user-80857924 Licensed under Creative Commons: Creative Commons CC0 Public Domain Music: https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/

WHAT?! We won the sky race just to lose our waifu like a Nintendo take on The Wizard of Oz! Well, dang. We follow a mystery girl (with no arms) in the middle of the night through the town to a hidden chamber and find a shiny sword! Ready up in this episode in preparation to head to the SURFACE!

Well, we've got our gear, a talking sword, and way too many rupees. After a brief fail to shop, we begin our journey to the Surface and meet new characters friend and foe alike on our quest to save Zelda!

Before traversing deeper into the woods, we take a detour back to the sky where we finally manage to get into Beedle's shop, visit the islands surrounding Skyloft, and put ourselves in debt to a very angry soup salesman!

We're geared up and ready to go a-templing! Onward into our first temple with a few goofy mechanics, some puzzling puzzles, and…SPIDERS OF UNUSUAL SIZE?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Spiders behind us, we traverse back to the sky where venture out into Skyloft after dark, begin to make payment on our pumpkin soup, and check on some special chests. Let us meander forth into the sky!

Full steam ahead into the land of Elden we go! We forge ahead into a live volcano, meet the Mogmas, find new bugs (shudder), play with bomb flowers (sometimes to tragic ends), and, of course, catch fire! Let's go exploring the lava lands!

We delve deeper into the volcanic lands, catch fire, and go on epic slides in our quest for the pieces of the temple key! Hang on, Zelda! We're coming for you!

* microphone issues this episode * Well, we start our second temple and it’s full of lava, bombs, and fun new friends determined to set us on all sorts of fire! But…what’s this? We get a BOMB BAG?! Oh yeah! This episode is bound to be explosive! (I’m sorry…I had to say it.)

We hop back into the Fire Temple and, after enduring another soliloquy from Ghirahim, fight a new boss only to have a surprising encounter! LOZ gets me up in my feelings, but it’s back to the sky for some serious sidequesting! Monsters, mayhem, and mystery abound in this new episode!

The ever-so-charming Batreaux, who resides beneath Skyloft, has given us the most ultimate of sidequests...DO MORE SIDEQUESTS! So away we go on a hunt for people in need because we're that kind of hero and the game developers assure us that helping people feels good! (Let that be an inspiration, young people!) Later in the episode, we explore the third and final(?) region that I can't pronounce...Lanahru...LanAYroo...LAYNahreeeooo?... The desert. We're going to the desert. Enjoy!

Back to the desert of unpronounceable name we go! We traverse the vast desert in myriad times, while combating evil birds, electrocuting bokoblins, and shrimp of unusual size as we try to make our way to the infamous Temple of Time!

We enter the Lana...*cough* Mine and encounter all sorts of fun new mechanics, enemies, and ways to be utterly mediocre! Let's Go...carefully!

And we're back to the temple of time-hopping and way too much dust! Link and his magic Dust-Blaster are here for it! It will all be cleaned! We bumble our way through the second half of the temple, battle a boss, and make our way to the Temple of Time! Waifu, we demand an explanation!

After a long hiatus, the mediocrity has resumed...and it's more mediocre than ever! We've got a new harp, new exhibitionist enemies, a practical use for our magic Dustbuster, and Pippit gets pissy when he's tired! Plus, Zelda's disappeared and we don't know where! With the magic of music and the most unlikely of allies, we dive into more mayhem and magic...now with sick tunes!

We're back with a new microphone, a new mission, but the same mediocrity! Back up to Skyloft we go to find the source of the songs only to get side-quested by spooky voices, a love triangle, and a powerful need for some toilet paper!

We're back on track with our main questline trying to figure out the mystery of the songs! A somewhat bumpy and meandering ride as always, but we finally get to the bottom of the mystery, opening clouds and gates and paths into alternate, terrifying realms!
