So I started playing Twilight Princess for the first time...

If better exploration means 100s and 100s of random holes you can fall down and get 20 rupees in than I prefer TPs crappy exploration.

That's a nice challenge, Borys. I"ll do it sometime this year before SS.

I was watching some videos on the youtubes, and one area that TP excels at is the scale of the boss battles. Compare Volvagia to Morpheel and Gohma to Armoghoma, it's just uncanny.

Yes, obviously TP's got an edge since it's on way more powerful hardware, but it's still a surprisingly technically impressive game.

Just got to the Arbiters Grounds. I hear this is supposed to be the first great dungeon?

Typical of Zelda for me, I'm finding everything apart from the dungeons to be a drag. The story is annoying; running about the overworld is boring; and the mini-games are shite.

2D Zelda is where it's at for me.

[Oblivion]

I actually thought Lakebed Temple was the first good temple (first good water dungeon in a Zelda game too), but yeah Arbiter's grounds is where the game kicks into high gear.

[Herr Mafflard]

Lakebed Temple was pretty good, yeah.

The game slows down too much with the story. It's embarrassing -- this isn't Final Fantasy.

I liked all the dungeons tbh
