With all secret shells, hearts containers and 0 deaths. Was a fun experience but a challenge I will not do again.

Was intending on playing links awakening again. But I happened to do so since I just got a switch lite and was trying out some games on it. Then I got sucked back in.

Such a classic game

I played about 6 hours of skyward sword on switch 2 and I couldn't get used to the controls so I stopped playing. Its a bummer because I really wanted to see the story :(

That's fair, I didn't like the controls much either, but I got used to it after a while.

The story progresses pretty similarly to Ocarina of Time:

  1. Tutorial island where you can explore and learn controls
  2. Three worlds to explore
  3. Big plot event after 2
  4. Return to worlds from 2, but expanded
  5. Final dungeon

I'm obviously skipping stuff and keeping things intentionally vague to avoid spoilers, my point is it felt like it followed a similar formula.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
