I only listen to electro-post dubprog.  You've probably never heard of it.

TWW's stealth bit was cool, and so was the brief "stealth" section in TP when you were a wolf in the village.

I thought the wolf part of TP was pointless and not enjoyable at all. I didn’t mind the stealth part of TWW, I thought it added an interesting new wrinkle.
The Tears of Light parts were totally annoying. But wouldn't you agree that the first time you became a wolf and got to snoop around your village was pretty cool?

So, I've just got the song that those tadpole Zoras teach you after finding all the eggs.

That stealth section in the pirate fortress was laughably easy with the stone mask. I ran around hitting all the guards just because I could.

Booooo, lame. That's one of the best parts of the game!


EDIT: And oh crap, you've still got the best dungeon in Zelda history ahead of you. You're in for an awesome time pretty soon.

Well, I don't enjoy stealth sections in Zelda games so I'm glad I didn't have to be sneaky.

Also, Sander/Voxyn told me he stopped playing at that point in the game because he disliked it so much :lol

Miyamoto recently said he'd be "interested in creating something new maybe based on, or starting from, A Link To The Past."

Another game with ALTTP influence or style would be cool, since I think that game is almost perfect. It has an open-ended feel that Skyward Sword and other recent games lack. I'd also be okay with a 3D remake of it, but I'd rather have something new first.

I saw that; I thought he meant a game in the same style as ALttP, or a direct sequel (which I would LOVE).

Yes, I know. That's why I said I'd ALSO be okay with a remake.

Making 2d nintendo games has seemed to be a trend lately... I'm surprised we haven't gotten a 2D overhead Zelda game on the wii yet.

I do.

Also, the main boss in that temple was annoying as hell.

I hate all of that dungeon with a passion. Interestingly - and ZeldaDungeon.net honed in on this as well - I hate all water-themed dungeons.

I didn't find the dungeon all that bad. It was just the mini-boss + main boss.

Also, constantly changing between ice and fire arrows. Also...constantly changing between zora and human.

You go to ZD, by any chance?  I think I've seen you around.

I like the Water Temple, and I think the 3DS version takes care of most of the annoyances.  The only water dungeon I remember HATING was the one in MM.  The Lakebed Temple in TP was one of the few things I liked about that game.

I remember being stuck on the water temple in TP. The water theme dungeon in SS wasn't bad though.

The most frustrating part about changing between the arrows (particularly if you messed up) was that the animation for putting them into a particular slot TOOK SO LONG.

I could only keep my sanity by mimicking the WSHHHHHHHHH sound it made every time you changed arrow type.

I get stuck in video games all the time, and there are two types of 'being stuck' for me; 1) Hmm. I'm stuck, this is a challenge to figure out how to proceed, and 2) FFS this is so annoying it's not fun anymore! The water temples in OoT and MM were in category #1; Lakebed/Lakebay in TP almost moved in to category #2.

I'm really in no hurry to finish it.  Definitely my least favorite Zelda (never played any of the hand helds).  OOT and TP are light years better in my opinion.

I would have to agree. Not that anything in particular was hard about it, I just had a lot of "what now?" moments.

How far on into the game was Lakebed temple?

Because I can't really remember it but I know I got quite close to the end of the game.

No, the worst dungeon in TP has got to be the Yeti's mansion. I hate ice block puzzles SO much.
