Title: Is TP Challengeing?
Post by: Hero Link on December 19, 2006, 08:28:42 AM
Maybe it is me, but i didnt find TP Challengeing enough...

The Good.
Many enemies, long Dungeons and many Side Quests.

The Bad
The enemies and the bosses, doesnt hurt too much. The final boss in TP, can hurt highest 1 heart, in one hit. In OoT Ganon can hit you with 6 hearts, without the Double Defense

Yet I didn't think he was hard either.

Except for the first three games, no TLOZ game is hard. Just challenging. OOT was a piece of cake, really.

Yeah, but that was because I've been playing the Zelda games for a long time and you kind of figure out what certain items help with. If I just started with the Zelda Series, though, it probably would have been harder.

Tp was kind of easy....I'm one of those players that take time to play games,but it took me 1 and half of a week to beat it.  I wished it was harder. Even Zant was easy....

The Lakebed Temple was kinda just like the Water Temple in OoT, confusing and a little difficult, but not really for the same reasons.

ugh, yeah. I spent twenty minutes in the room with the huge staircase, because I didn't see the lever above me ten feet. Okay, maybe that wasn't challenging, but they could have made it a few feet longer, than I would have seen it right away.

No, they shouldn't have. I think in every TLOZ game (or any action-adventure for that matter), you should be stuck for a short while because you don't understand/see what to do. I have looked around for 20+ in the Forest Temple(?) in that one room with the Boss Key, searching for the clue how to get to the key. Did I feel stupid when I found it. ???

But that's part of the fun. You didn't see the lever, I noticed it immediately. I don't like to see the solution for every puzzle right away though. A few should get you thinking, looking around....you know, working for it.

I agree that it's not the hardest game ever, but it's immensively harder than OoT (not as hard as ALttP and LA, though). In OoT you can cross Hyrule Field without having to worry about dying.

If you try to cross North Eldin Field (that's what I call the section of Hyrule Field north of Kakariko) as 'human' Link, without your horse, you're going to be butchered. :-*

Yesterday I was in a Bokoblin befested fort in the desert. One of the tower guards saw me, and suddenly I was surrounded by a dozen Bokoblins.

And then there's the Shadow Creatures. If they hit you, you'll lose a full heart. That may not be so much of a problem later in the game, but remember that the first few times you meet them you only have 3-4 hearts.

I guess it really depends on what your strengths are. If you are extremely creative, which I kinda am, the puzzles are easier than if you aren't. Then, depending on your reactions and such, fighting is harder for some.I was stuck as to how to get the cradle from the monkey in the beginning, because I'm not used to jumping on roofs, they haven't had that since OoT, and I am rather afraid of being on roofs since this summer.(That should go on the confessions game...)

I thought I had to shoot the monkey with the Slingshot. I didn't know what to do for awhile because if you think you need the Slingshot for it, the whole miniquest becomes a circle. And it took me awhile to figure out where the dots didn't connect.
But if you are a puzzle solver, even fighting can be a piece of cake. Because you are used to do something with a situation. Like for instance, I thought the Cave of Ordeals was a piece of cake (easier than TWW's "Cave of Ordeals"), because I used the rupee-armour for big battles (plenty of rupees down there), and usually used bombs to get rid of tougher/most enemies. And most of the boss battles are also nothing more than puzzles.

yeah, and a lot were recycled versions of other bosses. LIke the water temple. It was a little different, but not much. The end was hecka fun, latching on to him and stabbing him...
