    You can use a guide whenever you want in a video game. Especially if you get stuck. Not only does it not matter, but what the alternative? You just never complete the game because you refuse to get help? That's fricking stupid.
    I avoid guides that spoil though, but I use them because I don't want to miss anything in the game. I'm not 5 years old anymore and my patience for replaying the same game and watching the same movie and repeating he same things over and over is low, so if I dont do something in a game the first time, it's unlikely that I will ever do it again. Therefore I gotta get the most out of every experience.

    By the way I used a guide for majora's mask profusely.

      This to me is the crux of the issue. Once you get past your early 20s and you have a full-time job, there's just no time to be stuck in a game for hours.

    Sometimes if it's moronic like the fricking jabu jabu fish thing, like why is he cannibalizing his own species?

      Isnt there literally a sign 2 feet from him that says he eats fish?

        It says don't feed him, not don't feed him fish. I did find this out as a kid but hitting him with a fricking sword or shooting him in the eye just makes more sense

          Huh, I could have sworn somebody tells you to give him a fish or that he takes fish as offerings.
          But I was probably like 7 when I found this out the first time so theres no telling what I actually did.

    Do not feel ashamed, it is ALWAYS appropiate to use a guide when playing a Zelda game, for they all contain asinine cryptic event puzzles that make no sense. It only got worse when Aonuma took charge.

    The real question at hand is do you easy mode or not.

      Games should be on easy mode by default. Normal and Hard modes should be a toggle in the settings.

    It’s fine unless it defeats the entire purpose of playing the game like in something like Return of the Obra Dinn. Most games are god awful about leaving clues for finding hidden collectibles and secrets so there’s no shame in just looking up stuff like that. Especially if it’s something from the 80s/90s that’s deliberately impossible to figure out because the company sold guides or had a 900 number where you could ask for hints.

    All that said, if you need a guide for anything in the main quest of a Zelda game after 2, you might actually be clinically moronic

      True except for MM, that game feels like it was made to sell strategy guides.

        What exactly filtered you in MM?
        The only somewhat confusing part is the anju and kafei questline since you have to do it multiple times.

    Honestly a guide is the only way to make MM bearable, without it you need to do so much fricking waiting and repeating events because you fricked up one step of a quest chain or did things suboptimally

    I mean if you get stuck somewhere and have tried everything you think of yeh go for it.
    It's only gay if you use one for everything, at that point you may as well just watch a lets play.

    I only use a guide if I'm stuck for over an hour straight on a puzzle-heavy game or half an hour on anything else. It's more fun to figure out the puzzles yourself but there are a LOT of games out there that also have "well that was bullshit" moments (Breath of fire 2 on SNES being so badly translated you're given entirely wrong towns to go to as an example)

    I literally beat MM all by myself in a single weekend when I was 11 years old. What's your excuse?
