So, what do you guys think about the Great Bay Temple?
As for my personal opinion, I'm having a big dissapointment: I've read hundreds of opinions of people saying the Great Bay Temple is a hellish temple, by being very hard because of the water currents, because of it's confusing and extremely difficult puzzles, and because it has some intense mini-bosses and boss. But, I've got the Ice Arrows, the map and the compass, and none of these statements is true. In fact, the Great Bay temple is only hard when you can't figure out the water currents system, or where to go, and, though I've been confused in the first hour I played through it, the temple isn't now a hard place, as I've already figured out the water currents system, and most of the times, if I do not know where to go, I do some kind of trial and error until I find the place I'm looking for, which doesn't takes much time, either. In fact, the only statement I've found was true was that there are some intense mini-bosses and boss, having fought Wart and beated him with 3/4 of a heart (I think he was going to kill me, but I desesperately tried to shot Wart in the eye, and, conveniently, he was in such a position I was able to kill him just before getting killed). So, I have a great dissapointment because the temple is relatively easy once you figure out how it works, and it's 'confusing and extremely hard puzzles' are, so far, figuring out how to use the Ice Arrows.
If it wasn't because my [stupid] self wouldn't have played the Song of Time when I got the Ice Arrows, I could probably beat the Great Bay Temple in the lapse of three days, at my first play through it, without any help from a walkthrough.
Of course, this is a personal opinion of the temple, and, considering Zelda puzzles don't trouble me too much and that I've only played through half of the temple, maybe my opinion differs a lot from other opinions.
So, what do you think, guys? Was it hard? Was it easy? Have you got stuck in a part and checked a walkthrough to see what to do next? Please tell!
