It seems like Spirit Tracks has been getting a bad rap, but tbh I think I like Spirit Tracks better. I hated how you had to keep going back to the Temple of the Ocean King in PH, that shizz was super redundant, and made the game significantly less fun for me. Still a great game though. What do you guys think?

Not sure about the legality of this topic, since it is a vs thread, but it's not about characters.. confused Ah well, it's Zelda so I'd post either way.
I haven't played all of ST yet, but from what I've experienced, I enjoyed Phantom Hourglass a lot more.
Also, you'll probably go back and forth to the Spirit Tower as many times as you go to the Temple of the Ocean King.  I think the two-person puzzles are far more annoying than the Temple's timer; I'd rather be rushed than FORCED to take longer because Zelda is an idiot. I wish you could control her like Gongoron instead of having to draw paths everywhere for her.

It's been awhile since I've been here so sorry if I've broken any rules sweatdrop How far are you into the game? You do go to the Spirit Tower a lot, but you don't go to the same areas every time. In PH it felt like you had to do the same stuff over and over. I agree though, controlling Zelda does get annoying sometimes

True, you don't have to spelunk all the floors this time around, but PH had shortcuts you could take to make the trip shorter. Also, anything timed provides a built-in challenge. Ever made it to floor 13 with all your sand left? It can be done. wink
The rails bug me too. I thought you'd be able to draw your own rails. This system has me going around in circles taking five times as long as I should to get from point A to point B because I'm avoiding killer trains.

For dungeon crawling, combat, and most items, I prefer Spirit Tracks.
For overworld travel though, I gotta go with Phantom Hourglass.
Everything takes so friggin' long in ST. Feels to me likes they could have cut the distances almost in half, or at least made a faster train...

Combat bugs me too. I'm used to rolling PH style, so sometimes I roll when I want to attack, and attack when I want to roll. -.-

My only beef with ST is the slow-a** train and the lack of variety when it comes to sidequests. Otherwise, it's a good sequel.
But since getting around is just such a huge pain in the a**, I like PH better.

Omg I had two options when I made it crying
Edit: K fixed
As for overworld travel, I never really felt the need to go ALLL over the map in phantom hourglass, so that part didn't bother me. And plus, eventually you unlock enough of the railmap to go practically anywhere on it. I like unlocking new areas, something about it is just fun xd

Feels to me likes they could have cut the distances almost in half, or at least made a faster train... You can warp from place to place though, if you have to. It takes just about as long as the boat did really. When it comes to the armored evil train things, you can fire at them with your cannon to stop 'em from chasing you, so I didn't mind them as soon as I got the cannon xd

They're both really good.
I was hungry for more at the end of PH, so I don't mind a similar game.
The only thing I can complain about is that they changed the way you roll, which caused me so much trouble for like 3/4 of the game.
