It doesn't really look that difficult, but as they mentioned in the impressions video, the taunting sound is quite notable.

Extremely similar to the first Lizalfos fight in Ocarina of Time. Fire-related temple, hexagonal platforms separated by lava, and two Lizalfos at the same time.

One bad thing about this game's enemies, at least the early game, is that they block too much. They should defend and then immediately try to strike back.

 

[Mubble]

Sword Wiimote action seems like it could be quite satisfying in hits.

 

[Yonatesf]

I love them and their gaggingly-beautiful throat-music already!

 

[Ronin]

Hmmm, fighting them would be a bit easier than I figured. You only have to keep your shield up until they taunt you, then read where to hit and go for the strike. But as the game progresses, so will the difficulty in fighting, I'm sure.

 

[Dukusword]

I think fighting them will be awesome.

Eh, you're probably right. This game reminds me a lot of Punch-Out for the Wii and that game is pretty easy for the first four or five fights. If we go by proportions, then maybe this game will also be easy for the first third of the game and slowly ramp up in the difficulty.

 

[Yonatesf]

Regardless of how easy they look, fighting them looks like the most fun I've seen so far, combat-wise.

 

[EternalNocturne]

Imagine being in a room full of them.

BLARGAHRGAHRGRHARGHGHGHGHGHHHHHHHHHH

As annoying as it is, I love it. The sounds, the battle, the music, everything. XD

 

[JuicieJ]

Those things won't SHUT UP! GAAAAAH! I'm looking forward to slashing the crap out of these guys.

There's also some damage done to the shield, and a pretty decent amount, at that. With that, we really are going to have to use the fencing techniques much more, now.

I like how that sound is new, but their death sound is from TP. Yet another re-use of sound from that game.

It is? How do you even notice this stuff?

 

[A Link In Time]

Still lose those Lizaflos, the second one was very aggressive.

 

[Caelus]

It's easier probably because it's a different build, look he has more hearts than he should have by the second temple. I think they made the lizalfos easier to make the video quicker.

Although the second one definitely attacks more often.

Is it bad that Nintendo is reusing sounds?
