SHOW ME YA MOVES!
As you may have guessed with the title, this is a generic thread about the good and the bad of Skyward Sword. Mine are listed here. Feel free to share yours!
Perks :yes:
All in all, far more positives than negatives, and most of the quirks are just little nitpicks from what I've noticed. Opinions vary, though, and that's what this thread is about.
Perks :yes:
- Motion controls - fun to use and deadly accurate
- Art style - beautifully crafted and fit the tone of the game perfectly
- Upgrade system - allows items to be used more efficiently, and provides a break-off from the main quest
- Bug catching - a fun little way to break off from the main quest and allows potions to be powered up
- Item involvement - all items are used equally and innovativally
- Rupee use - rupees are constantly used in the bazaar throughout the game (never a point with too many rupees and nothing to spend them on)
- Goddess Cubes - fun to seek out and hunt down the treasure chests they unlock
- Lightning Challenge (Boss & Silent Realm time challenges) - reliving boss battles and the Silent Realms is just plain fun
- Gratitude Crystals - hunting down stray Crystals and helping out people to get them provides a good challenge and break-off from the main quest
- "C-look" - first person mode faces where the camera is instead of where Link is (annoying for me to re-learn) -- personal nitpick
- Night - nighttime only available in the sky, and flight not available during it -- minor nitpick
- Saving - no saving at will (save points are efficient but must be sought out when needing to save quickly)
- Recalibration - needs to be done more often with extended times of play, and occasionally gets off for no apparent reason (easily fixed by flailing the sword for a few seconds, but still slightly annoying, especially when using the Beetle or swimming)
All in all, far more positives than negatives, and most of the quirks are just little nitpicks from what I've noticed. Opinions vary, though, and that's what this thread is about.
