I want to see the "I'm a gaming badass souls-like hard game master" types try Zelda 2 for the NES on original hardware, within a single weekend like a proper rental experience. No emulation save states. No internet guides. Original controller. No Game Genie. They play it the way we elder millennials played it. Let's see how good they really are.

I love Souls games and think Zelda II is awesome. I think I liked Zelda II more than Elden Ring tbh

No cheese-crouch-stabbing Shadow Link.

Nah cheesing the bosses is a key part of the Dark Souls experience, you can't take that away from them for Zelda. Are you even a true Souls fan if you haven't tricked Iron Golem into falling off the side?
