Welcome to Gaia! ::

IIi, you should use steam to contact me when I'm not on facebook. I have all notifications turned off for email and phone.

My pleasure. He's a very underrated reviewer, and I pretty much agree with everything he said.

Thought he might've overdone it with Bioshock Infinite... I mean, it's a great game, regardless of what he says.

Why I didn't just tell you so on facebook I do-- Oh right, because It would probably go to you on your phone. and been all "Boop!" And since it was 3 am I guess I didn't want to wake you? But I must have forgot you live on the west coast.

I have been staying up too late these days.

I'm surprised the game was like this, it's the only 3D Zelda game I haven't played and it sounds horrid to me. I can't stand replaying dungeons and it seems like that game did it so much! I don't think I'd be able to finish it either

You don't really explore the same parts of the same areas. You return to one drop off point you went to earlier, and new gear or new story stuff opens up a new part of the area.

I don't really think skyward sword is "Horrid" or "unsalvageable." I actually think that it is a good game. It might not be the best Zelda game, though. That isn't saying much at all. I had no trouble playing it through, and "The Imprisoned" didn't really irk me as much as it seems to irk a lot of people. I think it could have been done better, but it was a really small part of the game; comprising a small fraction of an overall enjoyable experience.

I didn't even really rage at it, even.

I seemed to have had a much better experience with the motion controls than a lot of people did.

Must have been because of my magic gold wii-remote+.

Skyward Sword is easily one of the best Zelda games. Skyward Sword was a streamlined experience focused on actually engaging you the whole time. The combat is my favorite part. You have to think about which way you swing your sword. Even skulltulas will ******** you up if you're not fighting consciously.

You do "backtrack," but it is kind of an understatement. I won't spoil anything. You revisit ONE dungeon maybe once, and I think you're gone within ten minutes.

The story is also my favorite. Zelda has NEVER seemed as human as she was in this game. Same with Link. And there WILL be things that actually surprise you or you thought were cool, unless you've already had it spoiled for you.

Jasmine, if you're having trouble with The Imprisoned, ask me for tips. I am probably the person to ask for help with that game in this guild. You don't even have to ******** with his toes, nor do you have to outrun him. He's actually one of my favorite bosses, and each rematch is pretty moderately different, although I agree that three times might be a little overkill.

That reviewer is full of it imo. He complained that it took the game thirty minutes to set up what is essentially the mythos for the ENTIRE FRANCHISE, as well as the opening of Skyward Sword itself. They could have easily gone for an hour. Then he made the same complaint about them taking thirty minutes to make Zelda a totally likeable character who you want to save (in addition to, you know, teaching you how to play the game). If he had better observations, I didn't hear them, because the ones he opened with were asinine and I stopped watching.

There's not a lot to do in terms of side quests. This game isn't Wind Waker or Majora's Mask. If you want to play those games, go play them. Zelda's creator has the balls to do new things despite its fans always resisting, and that's why I love him. Like I said, if you're expecting it to be like an older game, just go play that older game instead.

Fi's hardly a dealbreaker, and she's not really any more annoying than Midna or Navi (though people thought Navi was annoying too so idk). She definitely states the obvious a lot, but it's nothing you haven't heard from your teachers or college instructors a thousand times.

I need a new one too, actually.
