My 3speaking Today

Hey, what's up, players! Happy Thursday! I hope you’re all doing great. I’d like to welcome you to my 3speak channel & this post. Today I’m in a good mood weather-wise, because it’s been raining a lot lately in the area where I live—and, well, across the country in general—which has caused temperatures to drop significantly and made the heat feel much more bearable. This makes sitting at the computer for a while to play Zelda or do other activities much more enjoyable. For example, one problem I have to deal with during really hot seasons is the rise in temperature in my room when I render videos, since this rendering process tends to heat up the PC, so it’s not very efficient to do it during the day. That’s why I choose to do the rendering and editing only late at night, when the temperatures have dropped significantly, players. But anyway, putting the weather factors aside, heh! :D, what’s important and what we’re interested in on the channel is that the Zelda: A Link to the Past series is going great, and honestly, playing it in 'blinded mode' (playing it for the first time), I’m enjoying it immensely, solving multiple puzzles, learning new mechanics, and discovering a ton of lore from this GOAT of video games.

Hey players, we’ve got new shoes! Ha ha! That’s right. Well, it turns out that when we return to the magician Sahasrahla’s hideout with the Green Pendant in hand, she reveals the true name of the Green Pendant, which is ‘The Pendant of Courage’, and tells us that it belonged to a circle of very powerful Knights who, upon disappearing from the lands of Hyrule, left the ‘Pegasus Shoes’, a quest item that grants us the ability to perform a new offensive move—the Dash Attack. This is a very destructive attack, but we need to know when to use it, as I think the charge time is a bit long. On the other hand, thanks to the new Dash Attack, we were able to destroy a wall inside Sahasrahla’s lair and thus unlock access to a secret room within it, which contains 3 chests with the following contents: 100 Rupees (50 x 2) & 10 bombs. It really felt great to loot Sahasrahla in his own hideout, ha ha! You can see the entire looting sequence starting at the '2:10' mark in the gameplay.

In addition to all the lore Sahasrahla has shared with us so far, this gives us a very good clue, namely that in a cave east of Lake Hyale, there is an item that will prove very useful throughout our adventure. That’s why we set off directly toward Lake Hyale, but not before stopping at a shop where we bought a heart for 10 rupees and 10 bombs for 50 rupees—and wow! Man, the economy in Hyrule is rough, ha ha! The other stop was at a fortune-teller’s shop where, for another 15 rupees : / , told us: ‘You will find a member of the Wise Men’s line in the desert’… Finally, we arrived at the cave east of Lake Hyale, but I’ll save that for the next gameplay, players ; ) . Well, that’s all for today, but not before thanking you for supporting the channel and stopping by—I really appreciate it, players. Cheers, and see you next time.
