is it the case that everyone knows the way to get through the lost woods forest of maze in zelda 1 or is that just us
it feels like one of those things everyone knows by heart
-F
@Felthry How would I know this
@socks i don't know, we have a bad habit of assuming things we know and have known for a very long time are just things that everyone knows, so i'm asking to check that
-F
@socks like there are plenty of things in video games that even people who haven't played the game know, i'm wondering if this is one of them
-F
@Felthry Nope, not at all
The only example I can think of of something like that is the Konami code, which I don't know but plenty of people do
@socks the other examples i was thinking of were the fact that you can get meat out of the walls in castlevania, and the plot twists of final fantasies 6 and 7
-F
@Felthry Castlevania is one that I know but I think it's still a little niche. I wouldn't expect people to know it
7 is only well known because spoiling it became a very common joke back in the day. 6 I don't think many people know
final fantasy 6 spoilers
@Felthry I was thinking about the fact that the world gets destroyed
In that case yes, that's most likely because anything FF6-related that mentions the bad guy (say, Dissidia) has Kefka in it, and also Dancing Mad is extremely popular
In your example, there is no adjacent media talking about the path through the woods in Zelda, I think
