When does this game get good? So far it's all been stealth,

>>378690756
The birb island has actual gameplay and the game opens up a little more once you finish it.
In fact after every dungeon the game opens up more too you.
Although honestly if you can manage it you should be playing the rerelease. It's just plain better in so many ways.

>>378690756
Dragon Roost is pretty much the end of the tutorial.

>>378690756
It gets really good after the third dungeon

If you're on Dragon Roost Island you can mess around a little which is what I think you want to do, sequence-break. Amirite? Just get on the boat. You can swim up to him, climb in, and play the Wind's Requiem.

YES YOU CAN DO THIS BEFORE BEATING DRAGON ROOST CAVERN TWW FANBOYS. I'VE DONE IT. DON'T MAKE ME REPEAT MYSELF TO YOU.

>>378691505
I found an original gamecube copy (the special K-mart edition no less) at my mom's house and it's surprisingly playable so that's what I'm using. Never got through the whole thing before, and I think I quit somewhere around where I am now back then.
>>378691506
Oh. It doesn't seem like it's really teaching me anything anymore, but hopefully it becomes more zelda-like after this.
>>378691559
I hope so. It seems like a lot of people like it and it would be bad if that many people had shit taste.
>>378691706
I just want an objective that's actually fun to complete, specifically involving actual fighting and not just walking around and talking to birds.

>>378690756
After Dragon's Roost island & Deku Tree island dungeons it gets real good.

The one part I actually did love so far was the letter sorting minigame. that was really fast paced.
>>378692131
Damn. There's a deku tree in this?

>>378692315
Yeah, he's next on your road iirc.
Also, his buddies are so damn cute.

>>378690756
It never does. The dungeons are mindnumbingly easy, the sailing gets tedious, the combat is annoying.

It's the worst Zelda and i have no idea why anyone likes it.

>>378692465
I'm afraid you might be right, at least as far as 3d zeldas go.

>>378692131
That's the good part though. It's downhill after that.

>>378692881
That's your opinion.
I think the pacing is great (except triforce hunt, fixed by Wii U version).
Dungeons are great, if not a bit too short and few.
Let's be honest, Zelda dungeons have never been difficult so I don't see how WW ones being easy is a downside.
Sailing is cool. Managing the wind gets a bit tedious (fixed by Wii U version).
Combat, while not the strength of Zelda games, is passable in WW and it's the one of the best in the series.
Exploring islands is fun and they are numerous and varied.
Story is the best imo in the series.
It's a gorgeous game and it has aged very well.

I don't get the hate here.

>>378693434
It's a fucking terrible game and it's unforgivable that this garbage came out on the Gamecube but Banjo-Threeie never did

when you get to this part the difficulty and reward really ramps up

>>378690756
The dungeons are short but pretty good... there's only four and they're set very, very far apart between several hours of sailing, dialogue and fetch quests each time.

>>378694497
You're so smart anon, you went to the other Zelda WW and took OP's webm. >>>378692109

checkmate faggot

It's the worst 3D zelda. It's still good, but lowest on the list. The temples are meh. All the different islands and stuff are cool though. The items also don't have many interesting uses.
Don't get me wrong, it's good, but mostly through the world and charm. The combat sucks because they're a gay little music sfx every time you hit something and the boss fights are not memorable. Toon link is worst link.

What?
This was the first Zelda that actually meaningfully integrated items into the game: you can use the boomerang and hookshot to get items from enemies, can use the bow to shoot off armor, can use ice arrows to freeze and then smash frozen enemies with a hammer.

That's a tie between TP and SS
OoT = MM > WW > BotW > TP = SS

>>378695157
Actually you're right, that shit was cool. I forgot about using them in combat. I was thinking through puzzles and environment, which I do think is more important, but using a good amount of early game items till later game is good stuff.

>>378694691
Literally the same person, if you save an image/gif/webm it has a different filename, but both posts you're quoting are the same person
It's sad, really

>>378690756
The good part is between after birb island and before the serach of the triforce, this quest is gonna make you quit if you aren't commited to this game. especially on original version.

>>378695467
I never played Botw, I forgot about that one actually, but I really think TP is a good chunk above WW after replaying both a few months ago.
I actually liked SS a lot, but call me crazy. I know why people hate on it, but I still like it for whatever reason. Maybe cause I really thought the motion controls were pretty tight and the dungeons were linear, but good.

>>378695467
>WW above TP
Congratulations, you invalidated your opinion

>>378696195
He's right though.

>>378696368
Wrong considering Wind Waker has the worst overworld, worst dungeons and is the most brainlessly easy of the 3D Zeldas

>>378695467
TP is the best 3D Zelda. It has the best dungeon in the series.

>>378696626
It has the best overworld, Wind Temple is GOAT and all 3D Zeldas are brainlessly easy.

Nice try TPcbro.

The game gets decent at best. When you reach the Triforce quest you'll probably want to quit. This game just feels unfinished.

>>378696195
>>378696639
>TPfags are still at it

I thought you all died off after BotW came out

How? TP sold over 8 millions before the release of TP HD on Wii U.

it plays better with the drawback of 300% bloom

>>378696930
Because despite those sales, it's still one of the most forgettable and bland games of all time.

>>378696756
Triforce quest was always my favorite part cause you got to go around and complete the map and visit a bunch of different islands. I'm for sure in the minority but as a kid I have a lot of fond memories of that part of the game.

>>378696706
>best overworld
Sailing on a blue void of a 'sea' with one island per square is so enthralling, especially in the Gamecube version where you have to whip out the Wind Waker to change directions
>Wind Temple
As shitty as the Earth Temple
>all 3D Zeldas are brainlessly easy
Not anywhere to the extent that WW is

>>378696862
>baby's first Zelda fans still can't handle that the only thing WW has going for it is its art style

>>378696960
Funny thing is I'm actually one of those people. I just never cared about Zelda games. When I bought a Wii I was looking for a copy of Scarface, but couldn't find one. Then I saw a used copy of TP and remembered the trailers with the wolf and riding boars and thought, well might as well give it a shot cause it looked kinda fun. After loving the shit out of this game I played all Zelda games.

My favourite has to be OoT though.

Funny how not finding a copy of Scarface was one of my luckiest gaming moments.

Let's see:

Sure.

>>378696960
My first Zelda was Ocarina of Time and i'm >>378696639
You can keep pretending.

>>378690756
Personally the highlight of the game for me was Tower of the Gods. Great concept, the boat is actually relevant to puzzles, and it makes use of all the items you gathered up to that point. Overall it's probably my least favorite 3D Zelda though, for a game based on "exploration" there's a lot of worthless copypasted content and unsatisfying rewards, and the main story content is below average.

>>378697272
Man this islands are usually empty though. You'll find the occasional treasure chest and that's it. I was so disappointed as a kid when I realized there were no big secrets out there, no special town, no other races than the ones introduced in the mainquest.

>>378697569
The worst shit is when the island has to heart piece and is either rupees or blue chu chus. They were usually shaped like something and unique I guess so there's that.
Or just a korok kid, I never finished that quest. You get what? a bottle? or heartpiece for it.

>>378697915
Lol I don't even know bc I did not care to go through it either. I mean come on compare it to the biggoron quest. It's pathetic in comparison.

>>378698058
>biggoron quest
Honestly one of the worst quests in a video game, Tarrey Town is better than both combined.

>>378697647
You could do this size chart for pretty much every dungeon in 3D zelda outside of OoT and MM, probably a good amount in there too. I know for a fact OoT shadow temple is pretty linear. MM Woodfall maybe too.
MM's got the fairies though, that made the temples even better than they already were. Best game ever made, I'm a fag with nostalgia for that game though.

>>378698393
>that made the temples even better than they already were.
Getting them in Stone Tower Temple is cancer without a guide.

>>378698134
Tarrey Town is good but I don't like having to chop so much wood and a diamond is a pretty lousy reward.

>inb4 I just happened to have 100+ wood so I didn't need to grind :^)

>>378698134
You're crazy that shit was cool. It's 'go from a to b' but with story and time trial.
You also get a useful reward.
I can see 'w/e I didn't like it' but, 'worst quest in a video game'?

>>378698942
It's a multi step fetch quest on a timelimit.
I'm suprised you think it's good at all given it's nothing but riding epona between locations with fuck all to do besides that.

Not to mention that you have to wait several in game days just to get the sword after you're done with the tedium.
The only saving grace is that the biggoron sword tears through everything the game has to offer with ease.

>>378690756
Zelda games are not good dude. I don't know what you are expecting. They are run-of-the-mill exploration RPG titles with no flare, no difficulty, no new concepts. They're just boring games where you play a green guy and walk around.

Wind Waker was rushed and not even finished which even the most diehard Zelda fans will tell you. The last good Zelda game was Link to the Past. You might count OoT but it has aged so poorly. Never got the appeal of these games. They are appallingly easy and obviously designed for 8 year olds. I'm not into having my intelligence insulted.

>>378698490
If it didn't take minutes to flip the temple once it wouldn't have been too bad, and you have to do it like 3-4 times even if you know exactly what you're doing.
The sword you get is pretty op so I guess it evens out.
Still though, Stone Tower is well designed imo so spending a good bit of time in there is kinda good. A lot of people like the music in there a lot too. I think it's good but I was never too crazy about it.

Stone Tower Temple is one of, if not my favorite, 3D dungeons. Only complaint is that Twinmold is one of the worst bosses ever, all of MM's bosses except Goht who is GOAT are pretty bad though.

>>378699269
You can play Sun Song though the days waiting part, it only takes like a minute. The rest of it I never thought was real tedious, I like riding around and shit though.

>>378691947
or you just have shit taste? just a thought.

>>378699847
The goron mask is real cool. As a kid I always liked the zora mask and great bay the best, but I think Snowhead temple and the goron mask might be my favorite now. The goron temple progresses well cause you make your way up. You do that in a lot of 2d zelda too, but since this is 3D you visually see yourself getting higher and I like that.

>>378699847
>Stone Tower is where it all comes together.
>You use all your masks.

> < > v > ^ < (x17554) fuck....

Try getting them without the mask. I love how Nintendo didn't bother to leave a hint that collecting the fairies in clock town a second time would do anything.

>>378699847

> He didn't fight Gyorg without getting out of the water.

That shit was intense.

>>378702276
Is that possible without the unlimited magic milk?

>>378702276
How even? I know you can hit him with zora link's lightning in the face if you get lucky. Can you stand underwater and shoot fins at him? I feel that wouldn't work.

>>378702815
Swimming doesn't drain magic in the n64 version.
It's totally doable in either if you're quick about it, but it's not on a timer if you're playing the original.

>>378696963
And that the Hero's charm is locked behind the mirror shield, making it only used for the last dungeon.

>>378702995
>Swimming doesn't drain magic in the n64 version.
Yeah I know that but doesn't the boomerang attack or whatever the projectile is cost magic?

>>378703381
the boomerang doesn't. The lightning shield does however.

>>378690756
It doesn't get good, you've been memed.

>>378703593
Ahh ok been a bit since I've played it.
Next time I play it I will make a note to defeat Gyorg only in the water.
