I love it EXCEPT for that fool escort mission on horseback. Those bird shits dropping the bombs on the road just piss me off. Everything else is great, a mix of quiet solace and relaxing smoothness with decent exciting spikes, and great controls on the GC.

[Anonymous No.7369435]

Having literally just replayed the game the only parts that really drag obnoxiously are the final wolf section and the stupid quest to get the sky cannon. Some of the padding is slow and annoying but it's still kind of fun.

The only really bad problem the game has is not being able to pass or manipulate time in any way. The day cycle is like fucking half an hour long and I very frequently found myself with nothing to do but wait for like 10 minutes to enter a house in the morning or to wait for night to make poes spawn.

It's like a watered down Ocarina of Time, but with no magic bar, muddy graphics, and tedious and unnecessary wolf segments (think the Werehog segments from Sonic Unleashed but worse). There are some cool items that debuted in it, like the double claw shot and the ball and chain, but the horseback segments are objectively worse than OoT and MM, ironically even though they were the main focus of hype for this game since you can "swordfight on horseback" in this game. The gameplay is generally better than WW's though and is less tedious of a game than that one.

[Anonymous No.7371050]

>>7369263
That and the wolf sections were the game's major flaws in my opinion. There's no reason to apply any sort of effort towards the combat because Link is basically indestructible. Taking hits is meaningless.

It's pretty good. It has some problems but overall definitely one of the best Zelda games for sure.

[Anonymous No.7373374]

I never played through, had some really annoying passages like every LOZ basically. From todays viewpoint it really makes you stay around and think and do nothing too much and it is not a real smooth play through. Dungeons are smooth mostly, but sometimes design crashes the flow of the game. Still like it more then breath of the wild tho. Not a Zelda in my opinion.

Twilight Princess is bad game design. Nintendo intentionally drags things out and makes everything bigger than it needs to be to pad out time so they can say they've released a 20 hour videogame. I will prove it to you. I pulled up YouTube video that shows the game from beginning to end and selected a couple of random points in the video. Let's examine it, anons, and learn.

>Example #1: 5:14:13
https://youtu.be/35ZUH2YoShg?t=18853
Takes 20 seconds of walking at a snail pace on the ceiling to make it to the chest. Then you have to go all the way back and then some for over 90 seconds. That is 110 seconds or nearly two minutes of holding "up" on the analog pad, listening to annoying repetitious clanking sounds, with zero engagement from the user. Two minutes is one round of Tony Hawk Pro Skater or two levels of Super Mario Bros. Why the fuck would you want to waste your time on this? You can be brain dead and blind and still be able to complete that section. The game doesn't respect your time at all. It doesn't give a shit about you. It doesn't want you to have fun: It wants your parents to think they got value for their money. Keep the child busy for as long as possible for $50. I bought a Wii for this game and I was so disappointed with it, I actually stopped playing video games for nearly 6 months until I just decided to buy an Xbox 360 instead.

Here is
>Example #2: 9:54:09
https://youtu.be/35ZUH2YoShg?t=35649

An empty desert with absolutely zero landmarks, unique assets, or challenges. Did they need to make that area that big? The desert looks like something out of World of Warcraft that is meant to have enough space for a 1000 simultaneous. It's as big as the map of a Battle Royale game. Meanwhile, you take a look at Link's Awakening on the GameBoy or Link to the Past, and every square inch of that game is memorable and well-designed. There are landmarks, secrets, new enemies, every five seconds. For Twilight Princess, it's like they started the map design process by making the biggest possible fucking square in their editor and that was the game direction priority, as opposed to make cool mysterious areas. No way, no how someone designed that desert and playtested it at the same and thought the pacing was ideal aka fun.

[Anonymous No.7373616]

No. You just have objectively bad taste in game design as an adult. Some people also like super hero movies or KFC. Except we're supposed to pretend that Nintendo understands game design. They don't anymore. Once they moved to the GameCube, they almost always never fully finished developing their games and put out rushed or padded out titles. I'd wager it's because everyone complained about how short Luigi's Manson was (which had the same design philosophy as their 2D games). By Super Mario Sunshine it was over. The good games were made by other studios, like Retro.

>>7373527
I pre-ordered Wind Waker when I was around 15 years old. I thought the game started off pretty good but after you get around to the Tower of Gods, the quality takes a nosedive. Too much traveling, no more proper well-designed areas (like the Windfall Island), and then you have the Triforce collect-a-thon. I believe the game was supposed to have way more content, including multiple dungeons, but the devs ran out of time. If Wind Waker kept the quality from the first third of the game, I would say it was the best 3D Zelda. Otherwise, I'd have to give it to Majora's Mask. The overworld was compact, the town had all sorts of interesting interactions and secrets, lots to discover. But I thought the dungeons were weaker than in OOT.

>Tower of Gods
somewhat agree. For me it felt like the tower of Gods was too final. The boss felt like something right before ganon.
>and then you have the Triforce collect-a-tho
for me, this is when i dropped the game and used action replay to have them all so i could fight ganon. No one wants to do that shit at the very end of the game.

What makes this even worse is that you're given an ability specifically for killing multiple enemies at the same time just to fight them with, pretty much defeating the entire point of the challenge they're supposed to pose. Right about the only time in the entire game where the Twili Beasts are actually interesting to fight is the one time you're forced to fight them in human form, even if it still amounts to just counting your hits and remembering the spin attack exists.

I waited 4 fucking years for Twilight Princess to come out.
I watched the E3 trailer dozens of times. Nintendo Power sent out a DVD with a 2 minute long trailer and I watched that thing probably well over a hundred times.
I read every English language interview and was even on forums where people translated foreign language interviews.
I had the game preordered from Gamestop before the title was even Twilight Princess. Shiggy told me that a delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever. So even the game being delayed made me more excited to play it.

within 3 hours of finally getting my hands on the Gamecube version, my heart was cold and dead. Twilight Princess was the first truly disappointing video game I had ever played at that point. It's a piece of shit.
