Let's settle this niggers. Wind Waker vs Twilight Princess.

Do you enjoy the kiddy WW or the edgy Twilight Princess?

http://strawpoll.me/2139202

Also say fucking WHY you prefer one over the other, or think one is shit, or think they're both shit.

Wind Waker wasn't a very good Zelda game, unless it was your first zelda or something. Voting for TP.

While TP was a bad attempt at replicating OOT, but this time they tried to make it "dark".

>Wind Waker wasn't a very good Zelda game

>>
Wind Waker is a 10/10 on the first go. Twilight Princess can be replayed. By that merit alone, Twilight Princess is the better game.
>>
>>253687516
I think I prefer Wind Waker, mainly because it has more enjoyable characters, since generally their plots are the same, both involve groups of people kidnapped, both have Zelda, both have Ganondorf as the final boss. Unfortunately for Twilight Princess though it's Twilight stuff comes off as wasted potential and it's wolf segments aren't as exciting or as well thought out as they should be. Even Zant is wasted potential, for very obvious reasons involved with the game's final boss. The dried out art style was alright I will admit, wasn't bad by any means.
>>
WW felt more like a big open world to explore. Also the color selection was amazing. TP story actually was pretty good until Ganon was introduced which makes no sense. Both does things a bit different and both does things well. I just feel WW is the better of the two but doesn't mean i can't like both.
>>
>>253687516
I'd say Wind Waker was the better game overall. Twilight Princess was a fun Zelda game but didn't offer anything new in the same vein as Wind Waker did with it's massive open world.
>>
>>253687516
I enjoyed Twilight Princess because it combines the good elements from Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker and improved greatly on the immersion and atmosphere of the world.
Also combat isn't as clunky and camera isn't as shit.
>>
I like both about the same, but TP has Midna, and that makes it come out ahead.

>until Ganon was introduced which makes no sense.

Except it did. They implied Zant had found a new source of power, and it was Ganon.

It's not lacking in sense, it's lacking in originality because they apparently had to ape a lot of stuff from LttP and OoT instead of just emulating the darker narratives of both games.
>>
>>253687516
>kiddy WW
WW may look kiddy due to the artstyle, but it actually has, imo at least, the most depressing ending in the series bar Link's Awakening.

Things don't need a dark and gloomy art style to be dark.

I'm not a fan of Zelda games but Wind Waker was a fantastic game in its own right. Probably one of my favourite open world games.

This shit's going head to head but WW is staring to take the lead, who will win?

twilight princess is the best zelda so that.

I like dungeons, so I like TP the most out of all the zelda games. WW had some of the worst dungeons.

I never got to get too far into WW but TP was the last Zelda game that I had played and I enjoyed it a lot its one of my favorites next to link to the past. Is the HD remaster of WW worth it?

I'm not sure. Whenever I see a picture of her or in the game, I always get deeply aroused.

>>253687516
Having just played through WWHD again and reliving some childhood memories, I put Twilight Princess.

I don't know, I just didn't have much fun with The Wind Waker. Every part of its gameplay was kind of tedious and annoying to me, and the dungeons were worse than I remember.

Twilight Princess had some pace destroying parts with its over reliance on story and lacked a strong identity, but it was also a quality Zelda game, with a big overworld, a fair bit of content, and good if somewhat unremarkable dungeons. It was a logical expansion on the Ocarina of Time gameplay, but it was lacking a spark of inspiration and difficulty.

Still, I enjoyed it much more than either of my playthroughs of WW, which feels unfinished and has some blatantly terrible ideas.
>>
>>253687516
WW I just liked the art style.
>>
>>253689190
Midna had a pretty cool personality. Completely using you at first, builds up friendship with your character and starts caring about the light world as the story progresses. Also one of the most powerful characters in any of the zelda games.
>>
>>253689336
Twilight Princess barely even has Zelda.

>until Ganon was introduced which makes no sense.

Honestly, did people think they made a cutscene of him murdering a Sage and being chucked into the Twilight Zone for no reason? It would have been cooler to have an original, stand-alone villain, but after that scene you really should have seen Ganondorf coming.
>>
Wind Waker didn't have the god-awful wolf sections and a final boss that dealt half a heart of damage.

Twilight Princess had better dungeons, but the items in them weren't useful once the boss was dead.

Wind Waker also had a more satisfying story, all the way up until the end, as well as having fun Pirate Zelda as opposed to emo Jawa Zelda.

Twilight Princess did have Midna in its favor though, but also the slowest damn tutorial segment I can think of.

Gotta hand it to Wind Waker here.
>>
Wind Waker has the better story presentation. But the big huge empty ocean and lackluster dungeons make it one of the most boring Zeldas. Seriously, Majora's Mask gets ripped on for having no dungeons, why doesn't Wind Waker?
>>
>>253687516
I prefer WW, but I really don't think TP is a bad game. On the GC at least.

I don't get it either. It's one to say "I didn't like him being shoehorned in". But then it's retard alert levels of stupid to say he came out of nowhere, despite a hint that SOMEONE gave Zant his powers, and then that SOMEMONE happening to be Ganny after the 4th level.

Seriously nigger? Twilight Princess had mostly empty space but at least it wasn't just water.

Ganondorf was central to the plot. He was how Zant got his power so he could overthrow Midna he wouldn't have been able to do it otherwise.

>>253687516
Twilight Princess had more good ideas than most games, but everything that wasn't excellent was complete shit.

Wind Waker is like 70% pure fun and 30% air. It's great, but a bit hollow.

I'd give WW the edge, but they are both pretty good.
>>
>>253689754
>why doesn't Wind Waker?
WW had 4 decently sized dungeons, and 2 huge dungeons. Only one I didn't like was the Wind Temple personally.

At least it was for a second, jesus this one's really close

Whie the Ocean padding was better than the Wolf padding, TP did everything else better and with more content.

Twilight Princess.

Long answer - I love the dungeons, swordplay, general world aesthetic be it Hyrule or the Twilight Realm, Midna is one of my favorite helpers alongside Ghost Zelda, it has the best bow & boomerang in the series, Link feels stronk as fuck (for better and worse).

Short answer - it's my favorite Zelda game.

Wind Waker. The start of Twilight Princess is worse than anything else if you ask me. It just drags on for way too long.
>>
Just played through WWHD, my first time playing WW ever. It was overall fun, but it definitely had some painful flaws. Extremely short (even with "exploration") and pretty meh dungeons. Triforce quest really doesn't need to be a thing. Combat is clunky. First-person aiming is atrocious (fucking Kalle Demos christ).

But I give it a lot of credit for its bucking of Zelda expectations and playfulness with tradition. I probably would have loved it if I played it when it came out. I did play TP when it came out, though, so it has a special spot in my heart.
>>

Oracles are better than ALttP, and no love for at least Zelda 1? I can at least kind of understand everything else, if not necessarily agree with it.
>>
>>253690681

WW's start is arguably worse depending on how you handle forced stealth sections. That said, I don't mind the opening hours of either game, but I do actually prefer TP's.
>>
>>253690553
>First-person aiming is atrocious
I thought the gyroscope aiming was great with the Gamepad.

Which one has the better enemy design?

This question also heavily depends on which art style you're more inclined too, so it will be highly subjective

The start of WW wasn't exactly great either from what I remember, but TP put me to sleep. I dropped the game right after I got the Gale Boomerang.

Both are great. One is basically like a moving wall that will smack your shit all over the place, and then go kung fu jackal on your ass when you chip off its armor. While the other is like a tank that becomes a fucking jet with a sword that'll cut you up if you don't think about your attacks.

Twilight Princess is mediocre but Wind Waker was fucking terrible. The overworld was fucking empty, the dungeons phoned in, and enemies offered no resistance.

Twilight Princess has the worse -blins, but far better Darknuts and Stals. Also the boss design is brilliant.
>>
>>253690919

For casual instances, it was fun. Shooting enemies with arrows and grappling was really cool. But when it really mattered, I just wanted to kill myself. Puppet Ganon is up there as one of my least favorite boss experiences ever.

TP had several really cool designs, but Windwaker is much better overall. For every cool TP design, I can think of several bland ones, but just about everything in WW looked good.
>>
>>253690681
TP was easily an hour. Going through all those shitty little town segments like FISHING, then the stealth shit, and then the wolf tutorial bullshit.

Wind Waker, you go get your shield, you go get your sword, pirates come and you're practically off unless you count Windfall as part of the intro.

Play the real version of the game and come back with some actual criticisms. Wind Waker is better in story, music, and gameplay. Mostly because you don't just use all the items in a single dungeon and there's actually sidequests.

Strictly art style, I just like celshaded more because it's pretty rare, and at the time it was also the first game with it I played.

FF and the Triforce quest are the two things that bring WW down for me. Still prefer it overall to TP though.
>>
>>253692373
They cut out the sidequests to get the Deluxe Picto box and the treasure hunting aspect of finding the actual triforce.

Funny thing about that is that it actually creates a plot hole because when the Hero of Time left Hyrule, the triforce of courage was separated into 8 pieces again and scattered throughout the land, so it got buried under the sea, ergo why you have to haul them up from the ocean floor. Anybody who could have hidden the triforce shards in treasure chests on islands in the great sea would have had to have known exactly where they were and had an impossibly long lifespan, not to mention be able to survive the flood.

I think hes trying to say the art style WW went with, and hes just calling it cel-shading for lack of a better term.

What cut content? Its the same game from the GC. The only changes were making an outdated peripheral into something more relevant and useful to players, and streamlining a previously tedious quest.

WW. It was original. Fun changes to combat. Interesting new weapons. Stunning art style. Sailing. It had its flaws, but it TRIED to do something interesting.

Twilight Princess did not do anything interesting. Being a wolf sucked. Getting a second hookshot sucked more.
>>
TP has more and better dungeons
TP's overworld is more fun (the people who say they're nothing to do just haven't bothered to explore)
WW's combat is more fun because the enemies have more health and do more damage, but TP's expanded skillset is cool
I like TP's art style better but WW's graphics have aged better
The best songs in WW are better than the best songs in TP, but both games have really good soundtracks that suit their moods

Overall I like TP better, but WW is in my top 5 Zelda games
>>
>>253693010
It only cut out the part where you need to get the Firefly because it was just a pointless fetch quest, the rest of the quest is still there.

>>253693369
Fished up by scavenging bokoblins.
>>
>>253692270

Some cut fetch quests and padded treasure hunting don't make the game any richer. GamePad's streamlining of the menus and sailing contribute to make the HD version a much more appealing product. I can't imagine that playing the "real version" will make up for the loss of these features.

You can't deny that the game is lacking in content; Aonuma himself admitted as much. But I already did say I liked the story. Music was great, too. Gameplay is personal preference. Medli's dungeon is a series high point. Lots of great things. But I just didn't feel like there was enough.

Earth Temple is shit. It's short, stupidly easy, and drab. It might as well be a single hallway because the layout is so unimaginative. There is one single point of looping on itself where you need the Mirror Shield to open up a staircase, and the same room contains the single optional Treasure Chart of the dungeon. Everything else is boring combat which is occasionally made frustrating by Floor Masters.

Literally every single mirror in the dungeon is on a linear track that ends in a depression. There is no thought to any of the puzzles, you just interact with whatever puzzle element until the game tells you to stop. It is probably the blandest dungeon in any of the 3D Zeldas, because while every other dungeon in the Wind Waker is as trivial, none look as boring or have as generic a theme.

I enjoyed both.

But one can't deny that TP handled it's gear poorly, with literally a handful of items having almost no use after the dungeon they feature in, and severely underusing others that had so much potential.

Windwaker for a stupid reason. From the beginning you know you're dealing with dorf. I thought I beat TP day one, as soon as I killed Zant I was like "fuck yeah beat the game" then SUDDENLY GANONDORF

Wind Waker had by far the tightest, most responsive controls of any Zelda game. The dungeons while not numerous were extremely fun and well designed. It has maybe my favorite soundtrack of any Zelda game. Also some of the boss fights were amazingly fun.

TP had an actual downgrade in controls on the GC. I didn't have a moment of fun in a dungeon in TP. The soundtrack was boring and non memorable orchestrated shit. Most of the bosses weren't that great but I did enjoy the final boss. ALSO WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE KEPT THE ZANT AS THE MAIN VILLAIN HE'S LITERALLY THE BEST PART OF THE GAME. Also Midna was boring and shit and the only people that like her are into short stacks and annoying bitches.

TP by a decent margin, but mainly because it has the best dungeons and bosses in the series. It gets a lot of other things wrong.

In terms of personal experience as well, I know how high the hype levels were for TP, but my experience with WW was a far more crushing disappointment at how underwhelming a follow-up to Ocarina and Majora it was. One of my first major disappointments in vidya. I think most people had the opposite experience of writing WW off beforehand due to the art style and being pleasantly surprised later.

It was cool, much better than "Link with a silly aura", but shit if it isn't crimped by the retarded wallet cap.

I agree with your WW opinions, but you seem to be stretching to hate on TP. It had great bosses and dungeons, and the music was pretty good, just not as lively.

The movement thing is probably just because of how short and perfectly proportionate WW Link is compared to TP Link. One thing that was really shit in TP was climbing vines, but they were going for a more "realistic" vibe with it.

Eh I like TP better. I prefer Zelda for general gameplay and dungeon crawling to NPC interaction and sidequests. WW undoubtedly has the better of the latter, but TP also undoubtedly has the better of the former. It really should come down to whether you prefer the older style Zelda (dungeon focus) vs. the newer (sidequest focus).

Of course, most of /v/ is hung up on graphics and how 'unique' games are, so there is little room to look at pros and cons of each here from a less superficially biased view.

>>253695803
WW has a little more depth than it initially seems. If you hold the control stick to the left or right while attacking, Link will do different spins and animations. Of course, this has nothing to do with difficulty or how enemies react but I thought it was interesting. Also items felt a lot more involved in combat, with the grappling hook stealing items and the boomerang being much faster than the TP variant. Also the Skull Hammer was fun to use and caused certain enemies to react differently.

All in all, I agree TP did better with the hidden skills but WW was a lot more than "press A to awesome".

No, /v/ made up some boogeyman that there are "grimdark hipsters" because it needs reasons to complain about shit instead of "I don't like this entry in the series" and leaving it at that.

WW felt like it had a lot more to do, while I got bored of TP after beating it fairly quickly. WW did have the treasure hunt parts, but they were more enjoyable than the shadow world segments of TP. WW had a way more fun story and you really felt like Link was learning to be a hero in it. It also has the coolest link. Going back to places all the time felt like tedious backtracking in TP, but in WW it felt like exploring or visiting home after a hard journey (Grandma was fucking awesome).

I'd say WW had the more fun items. While TP had the more unique items, they were overall less useful.

Personally TP really disappointed me because it was delayed in release and still wasn't long. Also the light world dark world gimmick and styling felt really played out since it wasn't new to Zelda and Metroid Prime 2 had recently done the same thing. WW styling was a breath of fresh air, and I liked how you could look at Link's facial expressions for context clues sometimes.

WW had better music.

Not only that but also the most emotive. I'm fine with silent protags but in a story heavy game they have to be able to show emotion.

WW felt like the developers were still trying. Some parts weren't complete or that great, but it was still creative and interesting.

TP felt like they were sure just remaking OoT would be a successful. It was almost...lazy. And of course they removed a bunch of stuff: magic, controlling your own shield etc. It was a shame, because the same amount of effort, plus a bit of "passion", could have gone into making a brilliant game.

>>
>>253687516
7 years ago the answer would have bee clear to me. Wind Waker is better. But playing the game again recently, I've discovered it has some major flaws. In particular, the entire last half of the game. The pacing is shot, the cut content is glaringly obvious, and at that point you've probably done all the exploration you care to, so you're just going through the motions. That said, the game is still magnificent on a first playthrough. The story is charming, and few Zelda games have offered exploration of that magnitude.

Twilight Princess had issues, too. The first half was bogged down by a lot of filler and cutscenes, not to mention awful "tears of light" collectathons. It really tests the player's resolve. Just how badly DO you want to get to the next dungeon? I recall putting the game down and picking it up 6 months later when I had worked up the fortitude at one point. That said, this game had some wonderful concepts, and top-notch dungeon design, and lots of content. I think it's due for a replay.

I actually hated the wolf stuff most because it WAS exploration. Every new area you went to you were forced to root around in it as a wolf with the sole purpose to finding the tears. So you'd see all this stuff you'd want to interact with or explore further, but you can't because you're a wolf. Then you go back to the area as a human, and the sense of discovery is gone. I really hated that.

I to this day haven't beat Wind Waker. It's an amazing game, but probably my lease favorite Zelda next to Phantom Hourglass. The sailing was boring to me and the Triforce Quest ruined my interest in the game. I found Twilight Princess to be completely enjoyable. No Triforce Quest, fun dungeons, Midna, biting shit, collecting insects, just a lot of things that were accessible and fun to do, that wasn't broken apart by sail sequences.

Again, Wind Waker is still an 7/10 game in my book.

Depends. In the adult timeline, one can assume she and the other sages carried on their duties until they're time was up and successors came along. While in the child timeline, she likely never had to awaken as a sage, and may have been "passed over" for whatever the fuck those greek looking fucks were in TP. As for failure timeline, who knows. She and the others might have perished in helping to seal Ganon into the sacred realm.

>>253697242
I just think that WW Link is the coolest because he really wasn't supposed to be the new incarnation of the Hero iirc, so basically you're just some kid who has to put on a brave face, get some antique gear from old people in your village, and break into a fortress to rescue your sister, only to find out that you have to go up against an evil so powerful that the gods flooded the world to seal it.

>Colorful, looks fun
>Large, very explorable open world
>Some islands have cool concepts and lore (like the fire island and ice island)
>Pictobox + figurines
>Best Ganondorf

Twilight Princess:
>Midna
>Realism looks pretty cool
>Link is a total badass
>Combinable items mixed it up a bit
>I enjoyed the slash motion controls, but other things like fishing were meh
>Teardrop sections were really fun

Cons:
Wind Waker:
>Sailing is a chore
>Most of the islands weren't really interesting
>No Jabun's Belly dungeon
>King of Red Lions won't let you explore until after the third dungeon or so

Twilight Princess:
>Only interesting town was Castle Town, most places were pretty empty
>That stupid jousting minigame I could not for the life of me git gud at
>You just beat Zant? Just kidding, it was I, Ganondorf!

They're both long to start, but I think that Wind Waker is more fun.

Wind Waker is so obviously incomplete it's depressing. Not to mention almost all of its dungeons and main bosses suck complete ass.

Twilight Princess is a much more finished game, has lots of great dungeons, and fun bosses. It also has better and more fleshed out combat and item mechanics.

Overall Twilight Princess is a better game.

And the lack of proper exploration, and the lackluster dungeons, and the fucking central dungeon that is probably the most uninspired dungeon besides the ocean king dungeon.

Those two games were a piece of shit, they couldn't surpass MC

But, how you aproach the world when you are in land is amazing, I really liked how the world itself becomes a puzzle to be solved, using different kind of shields for enemies, and the more methodical swordplay is amazing.

The story is some of the best in Zelda and the art style is fucking beatiful, but the DoF can be troublesome

TP is objectively better on almost every front. There's simply no argument to be made for WW except "muh nostalgia".

But nostalgia is /v/'s greatest weakpoint, so the flood of PS2 kiddies who grew up with WW sees to it that it remains top pick.
>>
Both good for entirely different reasons. relative quality is subjective. I lean towards Wind Waker because it has a less insufferable intro and it makes better use of dungeon items. I haven't played TP in ages and have lost my Gamecube copy of it. I will replay it the minute I get a PC that can run Dolphin at more than 2fps

That wasn't directly related to TP, I was just saying that opinions aren't necessarily sacred, untouchable things. I think it's perfectly reasonable to call an opinion shitty or wrong at a certain point.

Not saying people who prefer TP over WW are stupid or wrong, but I just think it's confusing. Like how do look at a game with a great artstyle, and a big open world full of secrets, some cool active combat mechanics, and awesome items that had some use outside of the dungeons, and then go, "no, I want the one with the smaller, emptier world, lock-and-key dungeons that give you lock-and-key items, and more combat mechanics that require you to wait around until halfway through the game when you get all the good stuff." TP was a fine game but it just went backwards in nearly every conceivable way from WW.

Not him, but TP's dungeons were much better than WW's. Better puzzles and much more alive. That is, WW's dungeons really felt generic for most of the part, while TP's often had a certain life, or atmosphere, to them that many in the series don't.

TP also has a much longer main quest, which balances out the lack of sidequests.

Eh WW's puzzles were more simplified than TP's imo. A major example of this is the final mirror puzzle in the Earth Temple, which actually has them on rails, making it less of something you have to figure out and more of a chore. Granted TP also had puzzles that weren't terribly difficult but not really ones so overly simplified as that.

As someone whose first Zelda was TP and I absolutely loved it, Wind Waker edges it out. That Deku Leaf and ocean man.

TP was simply epic, the adventure was a long and crazy one. Going from a farm boy to a badass dimention-travelling warrior was the shit.

How come out of the two (WW and TP) only Wind Waker's fandom is assumed to be nostalgiafags while Twilight Princess also came not long after and for the same console?
And why does the same go for OoT and MM when those two are even closer in release date?
If Wind Waker and Ocarina are associated with nostalgiafaggotry, why are their edgy brothers exempt from this judgement?

Fucking Resident evil would be considered edgy with this kind of comparison. MM and TP is not shadow the hedgehog.

TP has the better dungeons and boss fights (stallord!) but WW has the better overworld and items.

In what way was TP edgy?

Anyway, I voted for WW. I just love the colorful art style the game has. TP has a murky palette of colors and nothing stands out. I'd pop in WW before I'd pop in TP. They are both good games though. Only serious complaint I would have against them is that they are too easy.

Just because I'm saying two games in the series are edgy or have edgy moments does not mean I'm saying the rest of the series isn't.
And also, a single moment or part of a game being edgy does not make the whole experience edgy. Lorule and it's dark triforce wars gone wrong backstory is grimdark, but pretty much the rest of the game isn't
Less than half of Alttp is what most people would call edgy, while a vast majority of Majora and TP were grimdark

I'd just like to say I'm not implying grimdark and edgy are necessarily bad. I prefer Majora over OoT

I feel like some people don't understand the point of the triforce quest. Yes, it could have been better, but that was due to cuts. Besides that, want to know what makes it good?

It forces you to explore. You now have all the items. Anything you need for any island's challenge. Places previously unavailable will be available. The pieces are there to let you explore the world which prior to that point was typically point A to B with some areas unavailable.

Fi's probably never coming back and neither is Midna.

I'm gonna have to go with Wind Waker OP.
I will credit Twilight Princess for having some of the most unique dungeons, such as Snowpeak Mansion, and Temple of Time. But there were so many things that halted the flow of the gameplay.

>Having to collect tears of light several times
>Having to activate the owl statues around hyrule
>Had to change out of wolf form every time you warped

There was so much shit that you had to do before you entered a dungeon too, getting the reekfish, get the iron boots by wrestling the chief, OH HEY YOU NEED TO GO DELIVER THIS HOTSPRING WATER OR PAY OUT THE ASS TO AVOID DOING THIS!

As much as the Triforce Hunt was a pain in the GC game, it was far less intrusive on the overall game than what Twilight Princess had you deal with. It was even made less of an issue in the HD remaster, which was amazing. Wind Waker was so streamlined, at least Ganondorf was established as the main villain 30 minutes in rather than the last 30 minutes of TP.
>>
>>253709392

Keep some of Link's rupees safe in her hat
>>
>>253709330

Wrestling huge ass fish will too.

Besides we all know that every Link is the pinnacle of manliness in their respective games. No matter how bishie they look, they're always the most capable courageous men who get the job done that nobody else can do.

They also have some pretty cool hats

>>253709440
>Also, Tatl was completely different from Navi.
She was a ball of light that would sometimes offer to stop you in your tracks for advice. The biggest difference was that almost all of Tatl's lines were optional. Navi and Tatl are both bland as hell and exist entirely for the sake of tutorials.
>>
>>253709392

Would you have preferred losing the ability to warp? Faggot?
>>
>>253708890
That was the INTENT, yes, but in reality it was much worse than that: the game told you where every chart was, you could fast travel to any corner of the map, and you had to not only return to Tingle's island to pay a stupid amount of rupees to translate the chart, but you also had to fish the Triumph Forks from points across the ocean. It's a lot of tedious crap you have to do in between the exploring and solving mini-dungeon bits, and since you have to do it seven times, it doesn't feel like exploring, it feels like padding you have to do to finish the game.

Not to mention, people who played ANY other Zelda game probably have the instinct to start exploring immediately and going back to locations when they had the appropriate items, and this hunt happened at the very end of the game. Never mind the fact that Wind Waker punishes you harshly for early exploration because of the travel times, if you were masochistic enough to persist, the end result is a sea that's barren and pillaged, with a half dozen fetch quests to slog through.

It was stupid. I didn't like it.

TP is better. WW's overworld is basically a nice disguise for loading screens, but fails at everything else. Imagine a Metroid game where most of what you do is run through 1-screen rooms with two blue doors on each side. That's Wind Waker. Unfortunately, WW's dungeon design is also terrible, with almost no interesting or challenging puzzles and at least 3 dungeons that require the use of a song over and over again.

Replaying either of them is hard though, because their intros suck.

>>253710386
That might be true of Skyward Sword, but that can't be leveled against Twilight Princess at all. Everything you did in that game built up to stuff.

The fused shadows were used in the climactic attack on Hyrule Castle, the first confrontation with Zant gave you the ability to control wolf form and teleport at a whim, and the mirrors opened up the Twilight Realm. Everything had a payoff, and by the end you're storming Hyrule Castle.

No that anon, but you're forgetting Darmani, who is a wandering spirit. He died just recently before you found him. Hence why the gorons were constructing his tombstone. He died when he slipped and fell due to the blizzard surrounding the ice temple.

There's that dancing spirit who regrets never having passed on his dance before dying.

The entirety of Ikana is filled with wandering spirits, mummies, redeads, and stalfos. You put the Ikana general to his final rest. Effecting ding right before your eyes.
The Ikana King and his knights finally go to rest, passing into the after life.

You can blow up the thief, by striking the stolen bomb bag with your arrows. He's gone for the cycle if you do that.

Finally, if you let the cycle run it's course, the moon falls, and everything is destroyed.

WW>TP for replayability. Both are bad Zelda games though. They have their individual high points as games by themselves, but WW was the start of the "Zelda formula" (Fuck egoraptor I was saying this first, dont start with me fags) where they're just making games according to a Zelda code, and TP is the epitome of this.

Nintendo in general has become bad with this, but Zelda is a prime example. They need to ditch listening to the fans at all and just make a good game.

ALBW started good changes, the WiiU zelda needs to continue it with:

-No gimmicks at all, no wiimote, no touchscreen, fuck your inventory ocd

-No handholding or casualization. No regenerating health, make enemies challenging for how they attack, not based on a "LOL CUT HERE" gimmick. Make them approach and challenge you.

-Make the game feel like an actual god damn quest. Go on adventures to save people, find treasures that mean something. Make the world mysterious and shadowy without it being full darkedge like TP. By example of what I mean, look at Zelda 2. It has a certain rustic side to it, it felt like a unexplored world. No modern Zelda made me feel this way. It just felt like "oh heres a set of copypasted caves...and ...here blow this rock up theres a secret under there that you've already discovered...oh that obvious crack in the wall mhmm". Secrets should be secrets, shit shouldn't just be handed to you. it by no means needs to be ultra cryptic as hints could be given by either your need to progress a certain direction or talking to townspeople

-Take Aonuma away from the series, he's a fucking hack and shouldn't be allowed near it, fuck you newgen casual babies. The man has even admitted to hating hard games. Your precious Aonuma is a casual like you.

I don't know what to tell you. You wen through nine full dungeons, there was definitly a sense of progression there. There was a definite shift in the plot after the third dungeon.

What's you're opinion on games like Links awakening that has no such shift or objective change what so ever? You must feel like you just booted the game up when you finish.

I mean sure. But it doesn't have to be complicated. I like that pushing forward + attack does something different than a neutral or left/right attack. Hopping around is nice.

TP was okay, but the skillset didn't ever feel natural to me. it felt forced. and I couldn't tell you why.

A completely fucked hyrule that had been ravaged by death and evil forever. Wind Waker totally could have been the series finale.
>>
>>253711423
You can say that, but during the main storyline at least 2 people die in front of you as main events, and the repercussions of their death for the world around them is important as well (Zora mask and the old Goron elder).

You constantly talk to and help ghosts and the memories of the deceased. There's an entire 4th of the game dedicated to a ghost town/valley filled the cursed dead.

I agree impending doom is the main theme, but death is clearly a strong part of the narrative.

God I liked what they did in some cased with a LBW, especially with the dungeons you could do in any order, but did they have the make the world a fucking carbon copy of LttP?

Like Jesus christ I was so bored during the first half walking around the overworld, it was so damn similar, and so rare to find exciting new areas to explore.

>storming hyrule castle

I'm sorry man. It just didn't feel that way for me. And Hyrule castle was an extreme letdown, except for the homage music. All the other dungeons felt like they took so long to get through, and the castle was over, boss fight and all, in less than 20 minutes

Skyward Sword, yeah. It definitely felt like a huge sidequest. But I still liked it for various other reasons, even if the story/final boss was pretty cheap.

Confirmed for never actually beating WW. There was only the earth and wind temple that required the use of a song. The songs were usually used to enter the temple and in one or two other places in the dungeon that was relevant.

I'd rather do the stealth than do kiwi simulator any day.

Way late but you should try the Oracle games. Probably my favorite 2D zeldas from Capcom.

Wind Waker, because it moved the series forward, despite its flaws. Twilight Princess felt like it belonged to 1995.

But the zora guy is the only one who dies at the present time. The goron guy is said to have a few days ago, and no one knows if Skullkid stole the deku kids spirit right he cursed Link, or at some time before

The old man Goron, not the one who becomes your mask. You unfreeze him and he teaches you a lullaby, but even after you fix the goron area to no longer be snowy he is still gone.

Average intelligence of a SS hater, everyone.

>>253713353

What? Pretty sure the old one is in the village after you unfreeze everything. He only "dies" if you don't free him during a cycle. And then, that's only if you're one of the "each cycles is really an incomplete universe being left to die" nonsense

TP was surprisingly good for the most part, I liked the new features and that they tried to give Link a bit more personality even though the presentation of that part was a bit too much of an Anime-cliché. Honestly the only things that bothered me about TP were
a) that you are totally disconnected of what was happening to the world, that there was no real buildup to the downfall of the world, you forest just happened to be the last shelter from muh twilight.
b) that the Final was shit. Ganondorf felt like he was thrown into the game just because he is the big bad great evil of the Series but his appearance was totally off this time. The Fight itself wasn't great either, the last 20% of the game were really disappointing - which is sad since the rest was pretty great.


In regards to Wind Waker: I couldn't stand it. Had to drop it after getting 2 pearls, the whole world and presentation feels too lighthearted for my taste, I can't bring myself to take the events that are happening seriously.
+ It was no fun somehow, but I can't really pinpoint why exactly it just felt like a chore to play.
>>
>>253713810
I know.
>>
>>253713961

Except that's wrong. He's in the village, numbnuts, he even offers you the role of leader since he thinks you're the guy who died
