Mad respect to anyone not using occasional checkpoints. If we hadn't, we would be playing this game until we were dead. Neat little world building dialogues as you climb the mountain. Strong co-op game.

Really loved the swordplay in the end, and how they reused locations in a clever way during the game's "second pass". You can see some of the early seeds of BOTW in this game if you look hard enough, but I would love another game of this flavor (or closer to a more classic Zelda pattern).
This game is a work of art and so satisfying to conquer at the same time. More games in this style would be welcome.
