GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR MIYAMOTO! STAY AWAY FROM MY ZELDA GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Time for Rants, with your Host Ganondorf Lozjam!


I am by no means a purist when it comes to remakes. I was very excited when MM3D was coming out, as I dearly loved Majoras Mask, and I would have really enjoyed to see good, and natural improvements to it! Yet, with some things, they went way too far when it comes to handholding, and other things. First off, let me say this, I do enjoy some of the changes too, such as the new time mechanics which you can go to any hour, the new texture upgrades, the new boss fights(Like Gyorg), and the new controls for Darmani, and Deku Link. Now for the idiocy! The bombers notebook is something I believe needed to be fixed, as it was downright useless in Majora's Mask. I can see why it needed to be changed, but things went way to far. Whenever you speak to an NPC, or do something of relevance, immediately, your bombers notebook opens without you choice, and fills itself in. It tells you where to go, what to do ect. This is such a stupid change, for the fact that it automatically takes you to the bombers notebook, and you have no choice in the matter. If people need the help, fine, but make it an option. If it wasn't optional, they could have at least had the courtesy to make the hints, hints, instead of outright telling you where to go! Not only that, they dumbed down Ice Arrows as well! You can only freeze spots that sparkle in the water, that is both handholding, and taking away the fun of making your own path! This is the definition of excessive handholding, and something I decidedly hate!

Miyamoto needs to stay away from Zelda, as he is dumbing it down. Skyward Sword, as Aonuma envisioned it, would be a very challenging game, yet Miyamoto dumbed it down for casuals! He also did the same with MM3D. I am very excited for Zelda Wii U to be void of handholding(I can hope right?), so Miyamoto better back off and let Aonuma do his work, which is pleasing the fans and making a challenging, yet fun, Zelda Game!!!! No excessive (Required)hand holding in Zelda Wii U please!!!!!!!!
Here here! I couldn't agree with you more.

In the future, please don't double post; instead, use the merge option.
Lol, this is why mods shouldn't spam clean Fuujin's alts' posts. Macchiato didn't do it intentionally, but rather they were placed together when Fuujn's latest alt was b&T.

what the ****

The other things just sound like annoyances really, but what's the point of introducing a puzzle mechanic when you're straight-up going to tell the player what to do and where?

Okay, I'm seriously thinking to just stop playing smash bros today. I'm losing to every single dang person I see on for glory at least four times. Today is terrible.

rant at me If I am incorrect, but didn't Miyamoto make legend of Zelda in the first place, I'd like to see a link for proof it was Miyamoto and I'm not pointing fingers till then. That being said handholding is painfully present in Zelda games and there isn't much you can do about it. Sure, we don't like it and I think I even remember a statement from somewhere where they were trying to reduce haldholding in the upcoming game. I'll raise a glass high though if there is no navi/midna/fi type character in the next game (not that those are bad characters the positions they play in the games are rather annoying)
what the ****

cause it's nintendo

also on a side note saw an article today on something called Legend of Kay. I have no idea what this is, but I am interested

That's another reason I said " Group " ^^
I've the 3DS too and much of us are stuck in " 3DS Purgatory " so it's for everyone to get together n have fun where they couldn't otherwise. He.ck , I may even hop in for some 3DS casuls too if you gurls are lackin despite my GC Controller preference :]

LOL NOPE
I despise Skype xD
I way prefer an IRC Chat tbh, but dese Boards work sorta ok too.
( just SOOOO HARD to get communication on here as to who = active/willing 2 play tho ;-; )

It's more to get our Forum Zelda Board Buds to join in arms as comrades of fun <3
You could also add me on Facebook if you're not super shy about it. https://www.facebook.com/fernandocanoart

That's my profile if anyone's interested. It's easier to catch me there for plays than over here because I don't check here every minute :p

GGs @ Fernosaur Fernosaur villager is so ugh. That was fun tho haha. Play villager is so hard ugh. Any advice for the 3 characters I used?
Hahahaha I'm glad you're starting to hate him. That means I'm doing better :'D

Tbh playing you has helped me improve a lot! And I think it shows. You're def like 52352 times better than most of For Glory.

I dunno about advice for them. I think they're all pretty good. I was surprised at the early star KO you got with Wii Fit on Town and City. Stupid high platforms >_>. Also, man, that ledge harassment! Any other character would have been gimped super badly. Tlaloc bless balloon trip.

I love all our ledge fights, though, they're super hilarious because they're so chaotic and both of us always end up dead, hahaha.

You know what we forgot about? Skyworld! :(

Man, those changes to MM really do sound sucky :/

Sigh, well, at least we'll have the option of a master quest, right?

Right? :'D

Alright, I just added you.
Though I may not be on very often as I've only kept the account since I felt it was my last connection to someone very dear to me who had passed.

Yeah.. I know it's pathetic,
but I only stayed around to help the others who were in mourning and deleting it never felt right.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that :(.

It's not really pathetic. There's nothing wrong with keeping dear things close to you!

That moment when you stare into the spider's eyes trying to figure out what they could be reflecting.

Jumping spiders are pretty cute to be fair
More believers! These little guys never get killed in my house. They're too dang cute and I'll spend the longest time rescuing them if I have to.
I got this dog to take care of them

so don't worry
@kaazers, look a husky!
