You ever have Zelda dreams? - VGF

**Crazyswordsman** · 04-16-2008, 12:04 AM

Because I have them all the time. I just think it's very weird.

My first dream was a few days after I started playing LttP. I could NEVER figure out that you could pick up bushes and throw them, and I looked at the maps of Hyrule and saw there was a whole world out there to explore and I could never figure out how to get past the guards that blocked all the paths!

So in the dream, there was this forest woodsman who kept saying "WHERE?" really loud, and then someone else came up to me, said he was a tour guide, and led me to the Eastern Palace, which was the dungeon my 8 year old self was the most interested in at the time.

My next dream happened around then, and was related to the fact that the guards always said "I bet you can't wait until you're grown up and can use a sword!" So I spent the entire dream trying to make a sword so I could kill those guards and go to the Eastern Palace.

My next dream was about none other than Zelda herself. It was about Zelda's childhood, and in my dream, Zelda was the child of those two lumberjacks who lived next to the Lost Woods. This was mostly based off of her artwork back then, which I seemed to have an obsession with. I miss that Zelda and hope some day they go back to using the Zelda in the blue dress. Anyway, she became a princess later in her life because she was so popular and well known and a friend to all in Hyrule....except poor little Link....who is always the one I portray in my dreams.

My next dream that I remember well came around the time I was trying to beat the Helmsaur King. My dream said that the Helmsaur King could actually never be damaged, and there was a real Helmsaur King boss waiting to be fought somewhere else. I found it. Instead of the normal boss battle music, a very strange rap song played in the background and the Helmsaur King's back was wavy. I had to hit it in the back multiple times to win...and then I woke up....to that very same rap song.

I don't have any other dreams that I fully remember...until OoT. This one was about the Gerudo Desert, and I still have this dream to this day, and it's one of my biggest nightmares. I am, of course, Link, in the Gerudo Desert and I'm trying to find my way around at night. I eventually wind up in this very wide open area where there's absolutely nothing. No sound, no music, and I just walk around in circles trying to find an end to it all. There's a huge lake in the middle which I can't seem to enter. And it's very, very scary.

I have dreams often about Stone Tower Temple as well, which is of course, my favorite/least favorite dungeon of all time.

That's all I can remember; no TP dreams yet, sadly.

So how about you? You ever have any Zelda dreams? And what do you think of these dreams? -CSM

**Deku Trii** · 04-16-2008, 12:09 AM

Honestly, the only video game I can remember having a dream about was Sonic Spinball.

**Booyakasha** · 04-16-2008, 12:08 PM

Never anything Zelda-related that I can remember. Back when I first picked up my PSP, I would have loads of 'Lumines' dreams, filled with falling blocks and loonball techno. Weird stuff, Maynard.

CuccoLady · 04-17-2008, 12:08 AM

I have a crapload of ToS dreams. I don't recall any Zelda ones but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if I've had at least fifty OoT-based ones that I've simply forgotten. :]

The Missing Link · 04-17-2008, 12:57 AM

Harry Potter dreams? One. Zelda dreams? Alas, none.

**Crazyswordsman** · 04-17-2008, 01:55 AM

Wow. I must be the only one to obsess over Zelda enough to have dreams. Well, now you know a part of my private life: these people, who I obsess over in my sleep:

Call me a fanboy if you must. I phail at life. HARD. -CSM

I am nobody · 04-17-2008, 05:04 AM

I may have had one or two that I don't remember...

Mikhail Gorbachev · 04-17-2008, 06:35 AM

I've had several Zelda dreams, I dream about almost every game I play, (besides Tetris, for some reason) sometimes five years since I've last played them. Like, having Pokemon Blue and Oracle of Ages dreams a month or so ago. Weird.
Whenever I have dreams like these, though, it's never about the characters, it's me playing the game, top-down view, solving puzzles and slaughtering octoroks.

CuccoLady · 04-17-2008, 09:26 AM

I'm still trying to remember. I have distinct memories of dreams based off of many OTHER video games but at the moment I can't recall any Zelda ones.

1-up salesman · 04-24-2008, 08:45 PM

i never get cool dreams like that. i used to have a friend who really liked link that said that he had a dream where he was with link and zelda.(and i think sheik as another person instead of him being zelda.) but they called my friend link, even though the real link was with him. i think he said something about spider creatures (or queen gohmas) coming, and my friend and everyone else had to fight them. all i ever get is some wierd dream where im watching a movie or something. i never get cool zelda games.

err... i mean i never get cool zelda dreams.

i really like that art too. especially that link one with all those weapons that he is carrying. i love the look of the classic link, with the brown hair. i would really like to see a new zelda game where he looked like that. and that guy with the shieka symbol, is that aghanim?

KittenTheSmitten · 04-25-2008, 11:41 PM

Okay, uh, you're not alone, Crazyswordsman, because, like, I've had a bajillion Zelda dreams. I'm not even kidding. If I'm not dreaming about Link dying in a frightening manner in the Death Crater, or Link pummeling the hell out of everyone in SSB, or Link going through hell in some dungeon, or the moon with a gigantic creepy face threatening to shchmoosh the earth, or me being raped and/or violated by the re-deads or the dead hands, I'm usually at school. Naked.

I had a dream where I was in Sears being chased by the OOT moblins.

Insert Luigimans PDN here · 04-26-2008, 12:53 AM

I had a dream that I was dating Link and Zelda at the same time.

Dont ask.

CuccoLady · 04-30-2008, 05:28 PM

YAY!! I had a Zelda dream last night. It started out not-so-Zelda, but became Zelda. Watch:

Me and my best friend decided to go to Disneyland on a school day after school, but it was about to close (for some reason it closed at 6 in the dream) so we debated where to go. We went on this weird merry-go-round thing but then I started flying around for some reason and playing weird instruments and stuff and my best friend disappeared... and then I landed on this one island with a random patio umbrella and picnic table. Then I flew around some more and went to a LttP-like ice cave thing that had those annoying rocks you can't pick up without the Iron Gloves (which I didn't have at the time of the dream) so I had to go around. Somewhere in this time the dream went from first to third person, so it was like I was playing the game. Then inside the temple I was trying to find the boss door, and I had to move these little blue poles down because they were in my way, like those ones in PH (where the red ones go up, the blue ones go down). Then I finally found the boss door, and it was so big it went off the screen, and in order to open it I had to blow up some weird thing.

Then I woke up. :]

Dr. Furball · 04-30-2008, 08:30 PM

First thing resembling a LoZ dream I had was in 8th grade, and it was inspired by Melee's Great Bay, more than likely.
My class took a trip to New Orleans, for some reason. And I looked up, and saw Termina's creepy moon staring down at us. A classmate of mine known for his big red hair had got it cut recently in real life. So, I guess that explains why on the second day, the moon had grown a red afro.

The second one I remember was much more recent, a few months ago, in fact, and is not funny at all.
For reasons that I no longer remember, I was being forced to rape Zelda, and every time I tried, I looked into her eyes and couldn't do it. So kept trying and kept looking into those eyes...
I woke up feeling terrible.

**Crazyswordsman** · 05-12-2008, 03:32 PM

Had a TP dream last night, filled with very freaky music and bosses, most likely many different forms of Ganon and one of those Iron Knuckle type things. -CSM

Metal Man · 05-12-2008, 04:40 PM

Nah.

I dream of killing green men who hurl devil's food cake at me with spikey landmines and railroad tracks, fighting stuffed animals (also out to kill me), blowing up aliens with my mind, and... hmmm... no video game ones. Sorry. IRC dreams, however... plenty of those.

**Crazyswordsman** · 05-12-2008, 07:10 PM

The irony of my dream is that it played some VERY haunting and scary remixes of Mother 3 music and not Zelda music. -CSM

Kamektheheadmagikoopa! · 05-16-2008, 07:13 PM

I once had a dream that I was Link,and I had to slay Ganandorf(this was a TP dream)but he hade the mage's blade in one hand AND the Master Sword in the other hand,guess what I was stuck with...,THE FREAKIN' WOODEN SWORD!!!!I didnt have a shield either,he sliced me in half within one strike and I woke up screaming.

Another dream that I had(TP again)was I finnally have the magic armour(THAT I STILL DONT REALLY HAVE...)I went to Zora's Domian were a Zora pushed me down a waterfall,for some reason I sunk to the bottom into a black pit...,leading to Goron Mines where I was sinking in the lava which led to the Geroudu Desert temple where I sunk in quicksand(WHY DID I KEEP SINKING????)then I got sent to the Mirror of Twilight and a wierd Jamacian dude popped up out of nowhere and siad..."Slay the Unsurper king,yo,or the curse of the magic armor will travel with you forever...,yo."So I slayed Zant and woke up.

Medli · 05-26-2008, 07:47 PM

Oh, my! I have had PLENTY of Zelda dreams. Let's see if I can remember any of them... I have had plenty of dreams where I am Zelda and I get rescued by Link. *sigh* Ooh! I had this one dream that I was going with Link during MM. The main part was when we were changed into things. He was changed into the Deku shrub and I was turned into a Zora and it was sort of cool and sort of creepy.
