He just… doesn’t know, now.Okay so what kind of Zelda fan wouldn't want to be able to play the very first game in the series, in it's original format, for the rest of their mortal life? Not a very good one. He doesn’t have the control even to stop Pokey turning off the machine (whether or not he was meant to is unknown). He doesn’t have the control to win anymore either. Those were probably his last true thoughts, before finally breaking down.īut Giygas spent so long trying to stop Ness, he doesn’t want to lose. How did this one kid manage to get through every obstacle? How did he continually stand as the one obstacle the Apple of Enlightenment predicted would be his end? How did he not fall? How did he not break when Giygas took things away? His mind is shattered leaving only insanity behind.Īnd those words - words he knows but doesn’t understand - are all that is left of Giygas’s coherency. To the point of obsession.Īnd then, as Ness leaves Magicant, and begins this very last leg of his journey, Giygas breaks. So for a start, Giygas has spent most of the game trying to stop/kill Ness. The worse Giygas did the more Ness grew as a result. But no matter what he seemed to throw at this one human, he cleared those obstacles. Giygas spent so much of this game trying to invade, and trying to stall or stop Ness’s journey, knowing (through the apple) that the kid was destined to stop him. He had indeed lost his mind… if you refer to that simply as the term for ‘gone completely insane’.
It wouldn’t be right to say Giygas was so totally gone that he couldn’t form sentences, but to also assume total mindlessness as per Pokey’s words would also be incorrect. He isn’t telling you to kill him, he isn’t telling you he is going to kill you. He started with a plan, and was so absorbed by the plan that it stopped mattering to him. He doesn’t know completely where he is or what he is doing anymore. In my opinion he gives more the impression of a rabid, insane, sick dog. He calls your name, screams at you and engulfs you. Giygas didn’t directly capture anyone, he doesn’t necessarily breathe fire and he doesn’t say he’s gonna be back to fight again someday when you finally beat him. He doesn’t tell me it hurts when I pummel around and swing him off into spikes, he gets up breathes fire and flies away/ falls into a pit of lava. When I play Mario Brothers, I beat bowser because he is evil, he kidnapped a nice princess, and most of the time, he starts the fight, not waiting for you to get face to face with him for him to try and take you out. I didn’t want to play anymore, but I did eventually get myself up and beat him. When I first played the game and it got to that i sat there for a second and told myself “what the hell am I doing? I spent all this time powering up to beat something that is broken and confused.” It gives you sympathy for the thing you have to “kill” in order to progress. What came from his mouth is just the verbal representation of his distraught feelings, shown to you so you can gauge and realize the fact that you are fighting something that isn’t right in the head anymore. Giygas was destroying himself with power and rage.
