I came up with this idea whilst reading the thread about having redeads in Skyward Sword.
Many of us admit that what we have seen of the overworld so far is bright and happy, and don't get me wrong, I like this, a lot. But one idea I have had is that for some gamers, it might get a little old to be in a place like that all the time (besides dungeons of course). They might just get complacent, or fell that they have noting to fear or make their adrenaline rush. The idea that I came up with is that Nintendo needs to have a vast, dark underground region, or something similar, like a shadow temple, to balance out all the light.
We have not seen a true, fear-based shadow temple since Ocarina of Time, and I assure you, even though that temple was unnerving and frightening, it got my adrenaline rushing and I had fun going through it. If it was a place like an underground region, it could just be an extra explorable place with optional items, upgrades, or pieces of heart. Think of the bottom of the well in OoT. there were many rooms in there that you did not have to enter or explore to obtain the Eye of Truth.
What are your thoughts about having something to balance the game out?
It would certainly add depth to the game!
