This "remake" made some pretty unnecessary changes which can definitely be restored with the restoration patch. Finished with only 3 hearts, collected all masks, fairies and items.

The Zora dungeon on the moon was bull@*#^. I didn't recall Majora's Wrath's reach being that annoying on the Nintendo 64.

Even if timer mechanic is a huge turn off, I would at least recommend giving it a shot.

Stick to the original if you're can't stomach this version without the patch.
