This was a great game. There where stealth mechanics, sword and shield combat, puzzles, ocean navigation, secrets galore, so many movement mechanics with missions for them, memorable bosses and enemies, and great soundtrack!! The story was good too! That being said I had to rely on an online guide for nearly the entire second half of the game! I know it's an old game, but man some parts I would never have figured out! Like gannons sword falling in the direction your supposed to go next, or how the F to find the chart for the ghost ship, or how to understand that chart, or where to find the damn Joy Pendants, or to know that these little joy pendant missions were actually going to lead me to a triforce fragment, the whole tinkle chart, and triforce shard part was meh. I liked the fish that filled your map for food, it was cool seeing beetle ( I know him only from Breath of the Wild), I loved the skeletal insect boss, the the sand snake boss, well all of them really. The ghost one was easy but fun. The characters where corny but still fun. The temples were so different and fun. The god temple with reflecting light, the rock temple and controlling the Korak!! The wind temple had you controlling a flying character. The Forsaken Fortress with the spotlights and wall skimming was cool. The deku tree and the forbidden woods, the tower of the gods.I love the swinging on light fixtures, the ship being a character was awesome, the orchestral patterns to use magic was very cool! I didn't realize for the longest time you could expand your Rupee bag, and I always had the max(500 rupees) so doing side stuff didn't matter because the reward was more rupees. Once I visited the fairies and expanded it though I started doing side things, expanding my map, and exploring. The story with the pirates was pretty cool, I liked the hide and seek game you do at Windfall Island. This game had so much character! The ending was a lot of fun too. Great writing, colorful, goofy, good music, good times. Just wish I could have nixed the damn online guide. Still a great experience!
