    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    I disagree. There are still things we have to work out. Did anyone else feel that the lack of a horse and field to ride it on was a step-up from previous games, or a step in the wrong direction? I think some of the most fun I've had in Zelda was riding on my horse through Hyrule or Termina, I...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    To begin with, I don't hate Skyward Sword. I just didn't like it as much as the others. I would still like to argue my point about Skyloft vs. Clocktown. Clocktown, although it may not be physically larger, has so much more to do than Skyloft, and is far more intricate and detailed. That is a...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    I completely understand where you're coming from. Twilight Princess will always have a special place in my heart as it was the first Zelda game I played, even though I can clearly see it's flaws. Despite that, my favorite game is Majora's Mask. Regardless, I'm going to need to play Skyward...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    You do bring up some excellent points, but I was really hoping for a human civilization beneath the clouds. As much as the plot led me to believe that there wasn't going to be a society, I kept on telling myself "But it's still possible... there's just gotta be people down here somewhere..." I...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    BlueReptile, you do bring up some excellent points. I would first and foremost like to apologize if any of my opinions or assertions came off as arrogant, as that was not my intention at all. I was merely stating what I found to be faults with the game, and the purpose of this thread was to...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    I'm sorry, but have you taken an elementary english class? An assertion, also known as a thesis statement, is an opinion supported by facts. That was my opinion, yes, and then I went on to support it with facts. Never in my argument did I state that that was a fact. And to answer your questions...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    You can't take a full length game, copy and paste it with some added restrictions, and then say your game is twice as long. Because it really isn't That's not 80 hours of new material. It's really only 35. Expectation management, Nintendo, expectation management... Exactly, so when I read that...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    And also respectfully, I couldn't disagree with you more. The story was solid but not groundbreaking, the gameplay I will admit was some of the best in the series, the world design I found haphazard and abysmal, and I don't find myself humming a single Skyward Sword musical track in the shower -...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    You too have excellent dungeon taste, thank you very much. And I do agree that the final dungeon has become less and less epic since A Link to the Past - but you are entirely right on the ideas put forth in Ancie t Cistern and Sky Keep - if Nintendo takes anything from this game and puts it in...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    I think it is necessary to compare new titles of any series to the greatest titles of the series - for Zelda I believe the greatest ones are Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time. It is the only to improve the series - to best the best. Skyloft was less than one tenth the intricacy of Clocktown, and...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    I actually didn't know that every Zelda game after Ocarina of Time was dubbed the greatest game of all time - The first Zelda game I played was Twilight Princess in 2008, so Skyward Sword was the first Zelda game that I played the day it came out. And I completely agree with your analysis...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    The only two innovative and clever dungeons that stick out as the cream of the crop from Skyward Sword were without a doubt Ancient Cistern and Sand Ship; however I don't think they compare well to previous dungeons in the series. My favorite dungeons being Stone Tower Temple, Great Bay Temple...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    JucieJ, I think you have my issue pretty well summed up. I set the bar far too high for Skyward Sword, so it's my own fault that I'm not loving it. However, I still disagree with you on the opinion/bias argument. I believe that a game is considered "great" if everyone has a high opinion of it...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    I agree with your analysis (although I do believe that Skyward Sword was the worst 3D Zelda title) - however I am new on the forums and have no idea how to change the title.

    Hardest Boss in Skyward Sword

    I did not find the bosses in Skyward Sword to be particularly challenging - although they were loads of fun - but if I had to pick the hardest it would be Tentalus - it took me a while to figure out how to kill that guy.

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    Finally someone agrees with me, thank you! I did forget to include the exploration and the night and day cycle in my Skyward Sword tirade, as well as the harp usage. Also going back and forth to the sky to get from region to region was irritating - the map could've used a field to connect the...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    Not at all - I thought the art design in Skyward Sword was perfect - some of the best I've seen on the Wii. Graphics are the last thing I care about when I judge games (Majora's Mask is my favorite) - by doesn't look that good I meant that when you compare every aspect of every 3D game to every...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    In no way has my opinion of the game been damaged by the overly-critical reviews, if anything, my opinion has been damaged by the reviews that deemed Skyward Sword the perfect and greatest Zelda game. It's all about expectation management. If I read a review from IGN that states "Skyward Sword...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed playing it - chances are I'm going to play it again just to see if I was off the first time I played it - but I keep on seeing reviewers say that Skyward Sword is the greatest Zelda game of all time. And yes, I do see where you're coming from with many of...

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda Title

    Skyward Sword: The Worst 3D Zelda I am going to preface this review by stating that I have been a Zelda fan for years. I have played almost every game, and many of them multiple times. To nobody’s shock I purchased Skyward Sword first thing Sunday morning and jumped right into it. I am...

    Should Skyward Sword Be Moved to "Project Cafe"?

    I've been pondering this question for a while, and I haven't been able to decide whether or not it would be a good decision or a terrible decision to move Skyward Sword to a launch title for "Project Cafe". The only major negative of this decision is the release date would be pushed back even...
