Re: Zelda TP - Impressions? Progress? NO SPOILERS PLEASE.
Yeah, I've beaten it.
A lot of the problems I have with the game have more to do with the story and the...feel of the game more than the gameplay, if that makes sense. Every single time I play OoT (and I've played it a lot) and I first leave the Kokiri Forest and enter Hyrule Field, I always get the feeling that I'm leaving what "I" thought was the entirety of the universe and entering a world so vast that I can't comprehend it, you know? I feel like I'm moving on to greater things. In TP, I just felt like I was moving to another area.
In MM I always had that feeling of impending doom looming in the back of my mind.
In TWW I always had Arryl in my thoughts as I explored every new island.
TP just doesn't have anything like that. The whole game, pretty much, is just Link wandering around doing what Midna tells him to do. "Find the Fused Shadows, you might find the children on the way! Oh, I'll tell you what they are later..." "Well, that didn't work, let's go get a mirror!" "Oh no! Its broken! Let's fix it!"
I never really knew what I was doing or why. I guess what I'm trying to say is the game was fun to play, certainly, but I didn't really feel like I was the lone savior of Hyrule while playing it...
You know?
