I got a letter from the government the other day
opened it, read it
it said they was bitches




I played through it with a cheat code that disabled the stamina bar and it became my absolute favourite zelda game so they should just do that and also replace fi with groose

the only cool part is like 3 or 4 of the dungeons and the other 80% of the game is garbage. a shame cause i actually liked swinging the sword around and the watercolor art style

its the strongest argument that a traditional video game with a heavy focus on motion controls can work for sure but the game they built around those controls is god awful

the motion controls are poo poo too though! the sword swinging is locked to 8 directions, it could be mapped to a stick with ease. all the other tools are full motion and link looks like an insane idiot using them

I got a shovelware nerf game for Wii as a present of some kind, I don't remember when, and it was a boomblox clone I think. Whatever the Steven Spielberg game was where you make a tower fall over

Sword swinging is not locked to 8 directions in skyward sword. I'd say bring on the port but I can just turn fi and dowsing off with dolphin and play a kick-rear end Zelda game.

There's way worse games than skyward sword even though it's definitely the worst Zelda game ever made

those aren't the reasons it's bad. not to say they're fine either but they're small specs of dirt in the overall shitpile

i missed 3D chat, but i'm stereoblind so i literally don't understand what it is. like i can tell what depth is from parallax and relative size but i have never seen whatever it is people mean when they say "3D," it just looks blurry to me and i don't even get how it could work.

i think Skyward Sword is only "for a Zelda game" bad, but either way it seems to0 early for a port of it.

i know it's been 7 years, but i'd rather they find a way to port Link Between Worlds or Triforce Heroes so i don't have to wreck my shgoulders playing on the small screen. triforce heroes not because it is a good game (it's bad), but because it's the only zelda i never beat.

i never played it but the number 1 thing ir emember about it was their explanation for not having the traditional 4player coop was that if you stacked 4 links on top of eachother it would look too silly

yeah people are quick to fault the motion controls and fi for the game being bad overall but it's more that the majority of the game is an on-rails unskippable cutscene that's not half as engaging as TP. and for all of the emphasis on The Combat there are like 3 enemy types total

I've never played more than an hour of Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword. I morally object to their existence on the grounds of motion controls easily being top 5 worst things to happen in gaming history.
