Have you ever sacrificed a heart container rather than spend rupees?

You know those "Leave a Heart Container or -x- rupees to proceed" rooms? Have you ever actually left a Heart Container? :blink:

Similarly, in those "You can either take a Heart Container or a Red Potion," did you ever take the Red Potion?

In situations where the money demand was high, yeah I sacrificed a heart, but I hoped there were plenty of HPCs to make up for it.  As far as the latter, no not yet lol.

I've done it in the first BoaB and Origin's 3rd Quest.

Okay, that genuinely made me cringe, albeit in a fun and happy way. :P Thank you for posting that online. That's kind of terrifying.

Always sacrificed money and always took the Heart Container instead of the potion.

 

The only exceptions are probably when quests force me to take the other option :P

No, because I find the second quest difficult enough as it is. I don't need to permanently sacrifice my well-being for any replaceable items. :)

Also, everybody has seen what happens if you leave your life with three heart containers, right?

I've never left a heart, but I have taken the potion before. I think it was when I was testing my second quest thing in Koten so it wasn't really during a "real" play through. :P

I never take the red potion instead of the heart, but the first time i play ( and i play blind ) i left the heart instead of money, i was hoping that there was a extra heart somewhere..

I wonder if there's a way to take note of which one you left and have dummy chests around the world which give money or life depending on how many hearts you've left to the Old Man.

Keep a tally of how many hearts you have, via script; have it start at your starting hearts. Add a collect script to heart containers that increments it by 1. Add a collect script to heart pieces that increments it by 1 if it was the last piece. If your current hearts are less than the tally, then you have given that many to the old man; then do with that information what you will.
