  The Gerudo problem is easily solved. If you ask one of the Sheikah Stones, it'll tell you that Gerudos come to Hyrule Castle Town to look for boyfriends. That's how the Gerudo reproduce. Every 100 years, a male is born and that male is made king by default.

  &quot;Why is [Ganondorf] so unhappy if he&apos;s the only man, a king, in a tribe of woman. You know, you&apos;d think he&apos;d kind of busy... doing things... with the rest of the tribe...&quot;<br>(shows various shots of objects entering holes)<br><br>Subtle.

  Somebody has probably already mentioned this, but at the bottom of the floor in the Ganon fight there are magic pots.

  &quot;Look at childhood Link&apos;s nose. Reasonable. Now look at this thing. <b>awkward pause</b> Unreasonable.&quot;<br><br>Hilarious. Nearly choked on my coffee.

  Fun fact, the canonical explanation for how the Gerudo reproduce is they once a year journey into Hyrule to basically have 1-night stands for the purpose of conception

  Another thing about the ReDeads I seemed to notice: if you walk up to one, slowly, it won&apos;t notice you, and it won&apos;t scream. It&apos;ll just stand there in its default position.

  Some of the unanswered questions you had in the game are actually answered, if you know where to look. &nbsp;Specifically, the Sheikah stones will tell you that the Gerudo tribe will get busy with the Hylians whenever they want kids, which is how they can go on even without a living male Gerudo (which means being a Gerudo is apparently made up of dominant gene traits?). &nbsp;They also explain that the owl is an incarnation/reincarnation (differs depending on the game version, I think incarnation was the correct version) of a sage, suggesting a link to Rauru or perhaps a pre-OoT sage.<br><br>Also, there were pots filled with magic refills at the bottom of the Ganondorf chamber. &nbsp;It&apos;s easy to miss, but the idea probably was that most people who would struggle with that fight would end up getting knocked down there and would discover them. &nbsp;Still, you&apos;re right, it would&apos;ve been nice if they had made magic a little more accessible for that fight.

  You&apos;re actually supposed to equip the iron boots when fighting dark link in the water temple. This slows you AND him down, letting you slug it out without needing anything more than your master sword and shield. Not only does this remove his ability to backflip and dodge but it prevents him from doing his counter attack where he stands on your sword.

  I love your accent, Matthew. It leads to such great unintentional puns.<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o908SWJ8ulc&amp;t=180">3:00</a><br>&quot;This dungeon, while exceptionally easy for anyone who has played a Zelda game before, provides an excellent introduction to Zelda in a &apos;TREE-dimensional&apos; environment.&quot;

  That nose bit always gets me.
