Yes, it does. Apparently I didn't know the "trick" to fighting the final boss, and that could have made it (much, much, much) easier, but I won't be able to test that out until I get to him in Hero mode.

What a good, satisfying fight.

I have some advice, don't over-prepare.... before I went to the final boss I went back to skyloft and got two Guardian+ potions (stop you taking damage for 3 mins) and 3 heart++ potions.... I got through the first bit of the fight losing about 10 hearts, but for the second stage (when he brings lightning to his sword) I decided to down a guardian potion, and thus beat him wihout losing any more hearts. I found it a little dissapointing because of that (the last Ghirahim fight though was awesome)

Well of course it was disappointing, one should never use a Guardian+ potion unless one absolutely cannot beat a boss. I never even bought a regular one, as a matter of pride. The Guardian+ is an instant win button. You should go back and fight him again, he is the best fight in the game by far.

Well I know that now, I'd barely even used heart potions through the rest of the game (probably used basic potions once or twice, and a couple of fairies) that was actually only the second time I upgraded a potion. (just remembered I did use an upgraded shield restore potion early on in the game too)

So.... you will go fight him again for the experience, right?



Finally playing Skyward Sword, so far so good, I'm gonna start the Forest Temple. It reminds me a lot of Wind Waker, not only for the graphics but the beginning is quite similar. I'm liking the story so far, a better beginning compared to the slow start of Twilight Princess. The controls work perfectly but I think some menus would be better with Pointer controls.

Some complains so far:

1. That Fi or whatever character talks too much! At least I like how she talks like a robot or something lol. I guess all is part of the tutorial.

2. I don't like I can't skip texts after I read them the first time (talking to NPC). Or I haven't found how to do it

3. I thought it takes too much time to reach the first dungeon. At least unlike WW and TP I found the story better at this point so this one is forgivable.

Other than great game, the graphics and the music so far are great, and with the new combat mechanics it feels more challenging than previous Zelda. Even the enemies do more damage (thankfully).

As I'm not fortunate enough to have Skyward Sword, I finally returned to Spirit Tracks after a two-month hiatus. V_V Made it into the sand temple.

I really don't like how linear dungeons in Zelda have gotten. I guess it's a reaction to the dislike of getting lost in OoT's Water Temple that's led them to do that, but it really bugs me. Makes me feel less like I'm exploring a dungeon and more like I'm solving an obstacle course.

On that note, far too many puzzles. They really need to tone that down.

playing Ocarina 3DS right now, I'm in the Death Mountain, the temple that has a lot of lava in it

I was stuck for a while in there but now I'm almost done with that temple

can't wait to play Skyward



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

I have Dolphin set up on my computer now.

Think I might play Skyward Sword in 720p or 1080p.



Still playing TP, and wondering if i should finish ocarina first or go play Skyward after TP. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm



Lanayru challenge and the first voyage into the sand ocean today (since the other thread seems dead). There was only one particular tear that gave me a challenge in the Lanayru challenge, but i had pictured the sand ship differently. I was picturing something like Jhen Mohran from MH3



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Dolphin doesn't run it as flawlessly as I want.

Or:

I found something I'm OCD about.

480p it is. I need to start Hero Mode for real anyway.
