I actually want to do a Theory about the comparative values of different game currencies (Mushroom coins, Rings, Gil, Bolts, Rupees, and Pokéyen). The answer will be based in economics rather than composition, since we can’t tell what they’re made, or their “real” size, since the size is a matter of convenience to the player, rather than realistic.

1,000 subs with no videos - I tend to think of them as Yen, both because that was the symbol used in Red/Green, because there are no decimals as there are with dollars, because the prices seem a lot more reasonable when you think of them as yen ($2.65 is a bit more reasonable for a soda than $300), and the economic system behaves like yen, for example with the taxis in Kalos, which start at P710, the same as the ¥710 that is the standard starting fare for taxis in Japan.

@subswithnovideos-ef6ck

5 жыл бұрын

You're right there, but they're still referred to as Pokédollars, no matter what real life currency they are most similar to or based on. Even the Japanese name "ポケドル" is just a transliteration of Pokédollar. And the Yen symbol was never used, every game has used a P with two crosses through it, the Pokédollar symbol.

I'm waiting for you to tackle Undertale, MatPat. There's tons of unanswered questions about the game that we want answers for, and a lot of fan theories are spreading accross the internet. For example: - Who really IS Chara? - Who were the other 6 fallen children? - How can Frisk have determination, but not the other children? - Why is THE PLAYER the first fallen child? (Assuming you used your real name like I did.) - AND WHY DOES TORIEL'S EYES TURN RED AT SPECIFIC MOMENTS???? And this is just me scratching the surface. I haven't even mentioned Gaster yet. There's tons of unanswered questions and a ton of things MatPat could tackle about the game. So please don't insult people when they want MatPat to make an episode about Undertale. Our opinion is just as important as your's. Btw. We have already had a bunch of episodes about Nintendo characters already. Why not another indie game for once, instead of these triple A titles over and over again? And by the way. Everyone should read what my cousin wrote because no one ever talks about this: "I never see anyone talk about it but Chara not being inherently evil has canonical proof - they redeem themself in the Pacifist, No Reset timeline. If you boot up up the game after Frisk has left the underground, Flowey asks Chara to not Reset because "everyone is happy". Again: Chara. Not Frisk. Frisk has already left the underground. Only Chara (& you, the player) remain, and it's only you who can reset. If you decide not to reset, that in extension means Chara themself decides to let everyone go & live their lives - even if that means they'll have to be stuck in the underground alone, forever (& you, the player, choose to never replay the game). Again, Chara has the power to reset. They can bring everyone back. But they don't. And if that's not redemption, I don't know what is." Think about that for a second.

+Cute EEVEE33 basically, its a turn based RPG with bullet hell like dodging for enemies attack. you can choose to either spare everyone or kill everyone (sparing recommended) to get through the game. it has a total of 3 endings, being Neutral (basically didn't do everything for the other two endings), Pacifist (make all of your friends AND beat neutral at least once) or Genocide (kill everyone. no exceptions). pass that... I'll just say it's very story and character driven. stay away from its community, it is FULL of Spoilers and people who think you have to play their way or not at all.

Hmm. I don't think that's the actual size of the rupees. Just that they would have to make them visibly larger so the player can see them easier and pick them up. Remember that only so many can fit into the wallet. Perhaps the area and max capacity of the wallet is a better way to calculate their worth.

while all of this is fairly interesting. We can't apply the value of rubies and sapphires from our world to the zelda world. We do not know how common or uncommon these stones are in the zelda universe, but seeing how many there are in this world and that they are used as a currency, they probably have much much less value than the stones in our world. I think they are comparable in rarity and value as the material we humans make coins. Tin, Iron, Copper and whatnot.

But nobody else in their universe does, so its not that they're found everywhere.... Or Only Link Possesses the Ability, being the Chosen Hero. It seems odd that I don't think any normal person can or even is supposed to just afford the things that you typically spend all your rupees on, once you start getting into the big items, they all look Royal or of importance. And nobody wants you to own bombs, what are you, a terrorist? Ever read a Manga called "The Gamer".. I'd say Link is like that. He kills something, break something, etc, he gets exp and money for it, but normally, If other people were to "kill"/fight the same thing, they might get "stronger" like a normal person, But they wouldn't get money/items like him... Things that would normally be extremely impossible or rare, are uncommon or even common, abundantly so, for him. Or. You could be right and they could be worthless. But hey. That would make the chosen hero and/or Hylia/Her mortal incarnations, that much less powerful, to not have it as a special ability. And what would be the fun in that?

Halfway through mats commentary PBG:NEEERRRD

Another awesome video! I love your more scientific ones. Although, I'm sure the size of rupees, especially in Ocarina of Time, are visually exaggerated to make them easier to spot for players. Similar to how many chibi-style games like Harvest Moon, have basically every single item greatly enlarged when held by the player character. This isn't to show that, for example, a carrot is twice the size of your body and you can somehow magically eat it a bunch of them, but its actually just the game artists means of depicting a carrot in your hand, if they made it life-size then you would be holding a 2 pixel orange thing, but by greatly exaggerating its size of the carrot, the player can figure out what they are looking at easily. I'm sure its a similar principle with the rupee's, if they made them actual-size, no one would be able to find them, especially in the earlier games. So the artists greatly exaggerate their size for some gameplay simplification. Though if rupee's are indeed that massive then your math is indeed correct. This is just another thing to think about. ;)

Hmm... Well, what about glass? They can be colored and give off a shine. Heck, they can be turned into mirrors. Glass is made from sand. Sand forms due to weathering, which occurs pretty much everywhere. Sapphires, however, are igneous. That means that they can only form from molten lava. Unless Death Mountain can create an unlimited amount of sapphires and that's where rupee production comes from, I doubt that sapphires are more abundant than sand in the Zelda Universe. Also, look at the shooting gallery. Rupees shatter. That wouldn't happen if it were made of the second hardest mineral on Earth. Here's an example of glass Zelda rupees, and look! They're so shiny! :D www.zeldainformer.com/news/gorgeous-set-of-zelda-themed-glass-rupees-for-under-20

Thomas Manley Mercurz Z HOLD IT! That doesn't disprove my glass theory! It just... kinda... disproves my disproving of the sapphire theory. Hm... Okay then, how about expense? Wouldn't it be tons cheaper and more efficient to produce glass than it would to produce sapphires? I mean, it costs fifteen of those things to buy a freaking deku stick! Death Mountain is probably the only area in Ocarina of Time with the sufficient amount of heat and pressure to make sapphires, but even if rupees were produced there, it still takes a LOT of time to make them! Like... millions of years!

+Josh S NOT SO FAST!!! According to the lore of Legened of Zelda the Minish Cap: the Pikkori are responsible for quite literally for the various item spawns that exist across all the of the LOZ Lore by that standard its not unlikely that the Pikkori would have an easier time producing mass amounts of corundum crystals because of the minish magical properties (being able to change the size of people and objects) a spec of corundum could become an entire rupie by that logic

@monsterhuntersavage2

8 жыл бұрын

+Josh S But if you think about it, currently the rupies cost might be that high in the real world because of inflation and rarity of rubies and other gems, while they might be so plentiful that they decided that that is normal currency in their "Planet/universe", as an example if you think about it we used gold for a time as coins as currency in some places making the need for it higher and production of it making golds over all value go down, so the same may apply in that universe.

He's only going off the math he had previously known. He couldn't go off any other games except Ocarina because Link could be a different height, meaning he has to start completely from scratch. He can't do anything Link pulls from chests since you can't see all of him, and have to estimate the sizes. So, no, the theory makes sense, the explanation is sound.
