No idea where you got your bullshit from, but the only page I can even find talking about OoT and its engine is here: https://sites.google.com/site/jamesskingdom/Home/video-game-secrets-by-james-s/zelda-ocarina-of-time-exposed-by-james-s

and it says it's a heavily modified Mario 64 engine.

How you even assume a 3D game would use the same engine as a 2D game is kind silly to me.

Not only that, but a system with different architecture written in ASM. They were already using C by the time of the 64. Development would have been much faster just starting from scratch.

When you have it up on an emulator, a walkthrough or two open for you to read and a youtube video showing you step by step what to do and how to do it.

That's like the opposite of a mirror match. Even with the same weapons he has different moves.
>>
>>318102452
He's still basically like you though.

And if that doesn't count, then Jeanne or Prince Vorkken.
>>
>>318102774
Also you know what I just realized?

In the last Vergil battle, he gets a new weapon and starts using some of YOUR moves, so in a way, it's kind of a mirror fight.
>>
>>318102426
truly the most horrific way of losing.

>>318104156
He only gets Helm Splitter and Stinger. There's even an actual mirror match in that game, dude.

That's not how burden of proof works retard. It's the burden of the person making a statement to prove it's true when people call bullshit. Until proof has been given statements made, especially on here, are assumed bullshit. Until you show solid 100% proof evidence to back up the statement, it's nothing but filthy lies.

The one in Plague of Shadows is pretty cool. I'm a big upset that the possible King or Specter Knight mirror matches won't be as awesome because their fights are nowhere near as chaotic as Plague Knight's.

I feel like I'm the only one I know that loves that fight for the reason you posted. Most bull rush and get their shit shoved in because they'd try and stab. I would sit back for like a minute or two and eventually the fight opens up and gets intense, dodging on both sides, attacks, blocks...God I love that fight

trolley problem, but instead of a switch, you have to throw a fat guy off a bridge so that he stops the train by crushing it.

yeah it doesn't make that much sense
>>
>>318112097
I think it's supposed to be if you push the man off the bridge it derails the trolley but kills him and spares the five. Some variation says there are 3 people in the trolley that would also die
