The introduction part of most "modern" 3D Zelda games.

Sailing in WW

Second half of SS.

Temple of the ocean King in PH.

Being in the train in ST.

Also starting up SS and TP again because of those "notifications", SS is worst in that thing....

going into a dungeon in any zelda game really,but aside that
I'm getting curious, why do you play Zelda games??

I was going to do a whole list, but instead I'm going to focus my attention on the one element in Majora's Mask that I dread more than any other part of any Zelda game--Beneath the Well. There is nothing challenging, enjoyable, or in any way redeeming about that place. Fetch quest after fetch quest, further bogged down by blatantly obvious traps that you have to sit and wait for (or, if you're like me, charge right through and take the damage just to get it over with quicker). It is pure, pointless tedium from start to finish, and you have no choice but to grit your teeth and get through it.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned this. Am I the only one who hates it this much, or are we collectively blocking it out?

LoZ where do I go?

HAHA! I felt the exact same way! My biggest complaint about LoZ is that there is absolutely ZERO preamble. You get no intro, no directions, not even incentive to be doing what you're doing. Nobody even suggests that you go ruin temple boss' lives or what that will accomplish for this strange desert land with no citizens and no civilization. You're just wandering around killing stuff for no good reason.

LoZ - After Level 1. Because I HAVE NO FREAKING IDEA WHAT TO DO. 'Oh Link! Imma set you in this world. Now go!' That's how I felt.
AoL - Everything.
AlttP - Nothing.
LA - Nothing.
OoT - THE WELL AND THE SHADOW TEMPLE OH GOD WHY.
MM - All of Ikana Canyon
OoS - Haven't played it yet.
OoA - Haven't played it yet.
TWW - This game is my baby. There is nothing that I dread. Oh wait. ReDeads... yep. Flippin' Earth Temple.
FS/FSA - These games were... not very difficult. Nothing to dread here.
TMC - Vaati
TP - Twilight Realms. Arbiters Grounds.
PH - Temple of the Ocean King
ST - Having anything to do with conducting your train. (With the exception of fighting the Demon Train.)
SS - SILENT REALMS ARE THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE. EVERY TIME I PLAY THROUGH SS, I TAKE A 1 MONTH BREAK TO PREPARE MYSELF FOR THESE ACCURSED REALMS.

(Well some people don't seem to like adventure or traveling in Zelda. They're trying to make it more realistic.)

I'll try to do the whole list. I don't exactly dread these parts of the game, but I really don't like them for personal reasons… (or not so personal)

LOZ - Uh, I'm not so sure. Getting a game over because then you go all the way back to the beginning, or at the beginning of a dungeon with only a few hearts.

AoL - THE WHOLE THING.

ALttP - Most of the dungeons, to be honest. I've never beaten this game because I feel like I'm permanently stuck in them sometimes. (That game is so difficult in my opinion)

I've never played LA.

OoT - What do you expect me to say? Sometimes BESIDES the Water Temple?

MM - Snowhead Temple. I have 'bad' memories of that place and having to beat Goht OVER and OVER and having to find all of the Stray Fairies twice because I forgot to give them to the Great Fairy that one time…

I don't really have any problems with the Oracle games, since they're so straightforward, but I REALLY don't like Jabu Jabu's Belly in Oracle of Ages.

WW - Oh, I love this game so much! It's so fun and cheerful, and… oh, it's time for The Tower of Gods…

Minish Cap - The Ice Temple/Temple of Droplets. And that boss didn't make it any better.

TP - Possibly being in Twilight. I like the idea of it, but I don't like finding the Tears of Light. (Boring) And at least in Okami you have a weapon and didn't have to tear things up with your teeth.

Phantom Hourglass - Temple of the Ocean King.

Spirit Tracks - Parts where you have to avoid Armored Trains and Dark Trains. It's just not fun. I like the trains but just not the evil trains!

Skyward Sword - Silent Realms!

I used to dread parts where you have to sneak past guards. I still don't exactly like it, but at least I feel like a ninja and I've realized it's not as hard as I thought it was.

And I don't like the Tower of Gods just because.

Majora's Mask - Beneath the Well
The Wind Waker - Wind Temple
Twilight Princess - City in the Sky

Beneath the Well is the one truly badly designed part in Majora's Mask. It's a horrible idea and not well-made at all. It's a time waster and really annoying to me. The Wind Temple and City in the Sky are in my view some of the worst dungeons of the entire series and they're both huge headaches to me every time I go through them. I keep trying to like them, but I never can. They just get worse to me every time I try. The City in the Sky especially has begun to drive me to anger. :sweat:

Prrretty sure that's not true. Rupees are WAY more common than treasures, and it happens with every rupee with a higher value than 1. Yeah, TP is way more annoying than SS with that, lol.

I have a separate save file set up just so I can avoid going through the City in the Sky. I know that feel, bro.

That's 7 rupees vs 16 treasures and 12 bugs.

The rupee notification lasts 1 1/2 seconds and the treasure/bug cutscene lasts 11 seconds.

Twilit wildcat: Aerofelis
The escort the cart to Kakariko part in TP was annoying at times, but butt kicking epic. And I agree about "anything with redeads". Also agree about Ruto, there's a reason I nicknamed her Princess Annoying Pants.

OoT: Royal Family's Tomb, Bottom of the Well because REDEADS.
TP: The part with Skull Kid in the Sacred Grove, gets frustrating.
ST: Fraaz. The pig/imp thing that's the boss of Snow Temple...I lost count how many times I died.
WW: Forsaken Fortress first visit. I hate those rats, they knock me out of the barrels and get me caught!
SS: This will sound lame, but the boss keys. Making them puzzles was a bad idea...

Haven't invested any time into the 2D games, so here's my list of stuff!

Ocarina of Time - Some parts of the Fire Temple, I still get lost in that place D:

Majora's Mask - The first cycle, and trying to 100% after already beating it.

Wind Waker - Triforce Quest, 'cause ya know.

Twilight Princes - Sky Temple, haven't played the game in a year or so but that sticks out in my mind as being annoying.

Skyward Sword - The entire beginning of the game, honestly, I played for 7/8 hours before entering the first dungeon (maybe I suck?), after upon completing took me a few months to want to pick the game up again.

Phantom Hourglass - Temple of the Ocean King and its shenanigans.

Spirit Tracks - I don't remember the game very well, but I remember the snow portion being irritating.

OoT: The Water Temple!!!!!!!! Also, when you see the owl and you know there's no way to avoid him.
MM: Snowhead Temple. I don't like snow regions and it just seems to take forever before you can even get into the place.
TP: Any part where Midna speaks. Also, Ilia. O.M.G.
WW: Earth Temple. It's not that it's too hard it's just... ugh
SS: Lanayru Mining Facility.
