What a game.

What a beautiful, beautiful game.

I was hesitant at first, I'll admit. I wasn't sure this game could be as good as I'd heard it hyped up to be. But it was, and so much more.

As soon as you open up the game, you're greeted with a sombre melody playing as Epona gallops across the plains. You create your save file, and you meet the Great Deku Tree and Navi, and you set out on the adventure of a lifetime.

You can really tell the influence of this game nowadays. Targeting is so useful. Granted, there was no free camera movement, but Nintendo soon corrected that with Majora's Mask.

There is just so much to do. The main story takes you all over the map, from inside a giant fish to a torture dungeon to a statue. You can find helpful items like Biggoron's Sword or the Ice Arrows, that are completely unnecessary to the main quest.

This game is so impressive. I love every aspect of it.
Except the Water Temple. That bit sucks.
