quests.


Yeah, there was a guide up for it on gamefaqs which he followed. He claimed he found a lot to do in between the main quests, though he didn't understand much of it. The guide only covers the main quest, but even it mentions that there are a lot of sidequests that it isn't translating. I'm not sure what they all are or anything and I doubt you will find a guide to sidequests out there with a Japanese version only, but everyone on the internet and the one person I know with the game claims that there are a lot of sidequests and things to drag the game out. As for only 4 bottles being in the game, it's been a while since I played it, but weren't there only 4 or 5 in Twilight Princess?

Anyway, I'll wait for more review sources. I have trouble believing this one simply because it contradicts everything I have heard. That and they gave SCL a 4.5... wtf


Honestly: I hope they are wrong. I was clearly hoping the game would get 90%+...

 

tThere are less than four bottles they said so 3 of them is the maximum. I´m not even sure if there are any bottles in the game.

But look at it that way: Even if there are as many sidequests as in previous Zelda titles, just without the heartpieces that would be much less. There are about 40+ heartpieces in every Zelda game, so 40 sidequests are missing in this one...

But I really have to defend their SCL anticipations: 4,5 Stars means the game should get 85% +/- 5%... that seems to be reasonable.


You seem to be relating this game to games like Wind Waker, OoT, Majora's Mask, and Twilight Princess, but it's really closer to A Link to the Past and Minish Cap. It's a 2D Zelda in 3D form, and from what I understand there is far more content in this game than any of the previous 2D Zeldas. Maybe N-Zone was expecting a 3D adventure along those lines and wound up playing something completely different.

Oh, and note as I said above that there are actually 16 islands in the game. I'm being told now that there ARE heart containers, just not pieces. So rather than get 4 pieces to 1 heart container you find full heart containers instead. Obviously this means there won't be as many sidequests based around that in specific, but there are some. I really don't understand their statements about this game. Like I said it completely contradicts everything I have heard.

Edit: and that doesn't mean 40 less sidequests, it just means that sidequest content was shifted to other objectives, rather than heart piece gathering.
