That flying city thing in TP

[Teto 2609]

What was that again I can't remember. It was full of really ugly birds, the occa or something, which were probably evolved chickens, demonstrating how badly wrong evolution can go.

 

But like, there was some flying city. It was in some other games right? Was it? What was that about anyway. Was it in Wind Waker after Hyrule got flooded, sitting on top of the waves like "can't sink me yolo"

 

Here's a hip new discussion for the modern day.

It was City in the Sky.

 

The boss was a cool rehash of Onox's Dark Dragon form and the double clawshots were a wonderful idea but the dungeon itself was too tedious.

 

Actually come to think of it all the sky dungeons are really tedious. The Sky Palace in Minish Cap, City in the Sky, Palace of Winds in Four Swords/ Four Swords Adventures, they're all too slow.

Remembering suddenly the whole thing I saw, the similarity between the bird in M C Escher's Another World, with a bird that looks like those horrific beasts from the City in the Sky. And then that you can see those little shits scurrying around on the walls in the dungeon as well, displaying the same sort of mind bendy physics stuff.

 

 

One and the same.

Well, we sorta kinda had something like that in Majora's Mask. Except the dungeon portions were all optional. And it's being in the moon really had no effect on the dungeon itself. But it was in the moon, dammit!

Man I thought this was gonna be about skyloft and shit

[Teto 2609]

Skyloft is the same city. All the birds there actually turned into ooccas by having a wicked threesome with humans and chickens. It was gross, the interactive game is coming out soon with Wii Plus functionality.

This actually wouldn't surprise me, considering the striking similarities, and that Zelda has been shaped by cultures outside game lore for awhile now. Cool find.

[Teto 2609]

tbh while I recognised the bird when I saw Another World, it wasn't until I saw something on tumblr that I realised what I was thinking of, and it mentioned the birds walking on walls in the game

I cheated and I'm sorry

[pheonix561 2080]

It's okay teto you tried

Really though, relationship between skyloft and that place in TP? Have there been any serious discussions about it on other forums?

[Sahaqiel 1232]

You haven't played Minish Cap, but it also has a city in the sky. SS pretty much cemented in that it's existed the whole series.

I really think Minish Cap is underrated. That was a really solid game.

But yeah, that does make sense. I try not to make too many theories about connections between the games, since the stories only have tangential connections.
