WW-Wii U Am I the Only One Who Misses the Old Triforce Quest?

[pkfroce]

Seriously. Everyone's all yay! No more Charts and ssstuff.... Tbh, I was like that too, an then I played it and I was like, "Hm... Something's not right. What are your thoughts?

 

[HappyMask]

I agree. Wish it was back in.

 

[JuicieJ]

Why would I prefer wasting time by having to find charts that have to be deciphered for sh*tloads of money by going to a specific location so that I can THEN find Triforce pieces? It's a really ******** concept, and I'm honestly surprised even some charts having to be deciphered was a thing.

 

[HappyMask]

Yeah, but it was fun. And it added a nice bit of adventuring.

 

[Ventus]

I only miss it due to force of habit. A similar thing in a separate game - Kingdom Hearts Final Mix HD - happened to me. In the original KH1 and original FM, you had to hit up on the d-pad to access the talk/examine commands. However they are mapped to the Triangle button in FMHD. So yeah, it's just a force of habit sort of missing.

However the updated TForce quest is miles ahead, and I'm sure if I continue to play the game and get it memorized, I'll have no qualms with it and even begin to dislike the original one.

You misspelled "tedious" and "padding".

 

[Ventus]

You misspelled "tedious" and "padding".

While it is padding and can be seen as tedious, I don't think everyone takes issue with a little bit (or even a lot ;p) of tedium here and there.

 

[HappyMask]

Haha. I respect your opinions.
Also, it encourages exploration, which is what the game is about.

Why even have charts in general? Why can't Link just be given the reward instead of whatever the chart supposed to give? See how that works?

I loved getting the Triforce charts, like doing the Savage Labyrinth, going to the Private Oasis and whatnot but actually GETTING the shards was boring.

 

[DarkestLink]

Wish they did away with it entirely and added those scrapped dungeons.

 

[Night Owl]

I feel that they left the few charts they did in, as to not alienate those who really liked the quest.

I have yet to actually play WWHD, but I'm sure I'll be happy not to be blindly robbed by Tingle.
I think that's the only part of the quest that I really disliked.

Although I won't completely miss it, I will say that the original Triforce Quest didn't bother me as much as the next guy. I loved searching for the charts and salvaging the shards themselves, it just brings such an adventurous feeling to me and I cannot really explain why. Concerning the price of deciphering the charts, I've never found money hard to come by in The Wind Waker, and, more often than not, I'd gather enough rupees to decipher a chart after I found it.

Now, they way it's done in TWWHD is surely an improvement. I didn't hate the quest with a passion, sure, but it felt drawn-out at times, and I would certainly refer to it as padding.

The scrapped dungeons were used in other games, they can't do that.

He'll still rob you, 1194 rupees will still be required

You get a lot of money in this game, what I liked about the triforce quest was that you get to spend it, now you probably spend less this time.
