lmfao, I am probably your age or older. The one thing I do is adapt to the times.

I never proposed linearity.  I actually want a full open world Zelda game. I just felt like a lot of things slow down the pacing like having to start over at the begining of a dungeon when I made a simple mistake like falling in lava. It was really boring going through the same sections over and over. I say if you die in one spot than you should restart relatively close to that spot. Finally, I do love Link to the Past and it is my favorite Zelda, but I think Nintendo needs to do more than remaining stuck on the proven. Bring me a story, and stop wasting my time not trying to make the game move along faster. That is just me and I know many won't agree with me, but I still think they can do a lot to make it better.

I personally didn't like Twilight Princess very much as well. Wind Waker was just sooo much better.

I write it fast so I have no time to revise it at the time. This way I can answer posts like these and correct my test 10 hours later.

i nhavent played it since 06 but i remember it being very boring at parts and very awesome at parts, so i dont know. i just played it cause i wanted to get through it, but the wolf parts suck and i just remember forcing myself to concentrate enough to finish parts. however, i thought the second to last dungeon was awesome and i loved zant when all that finally happened, but i thought what happened next was overkill. i think if you dont like any of the dungeons you have been to so far you should just stop, cause i am remembering that heavy feeling i had playing the parts i hated again lol.

I really wanted to liked that game (and I did), but my interest dwindled as I progressed further. I think I stopped playing it at a part where I needed to collect raindrops(?).

The only reason I finished it was because the 2nd half was way better and I was killing enemies like I'm some spy/warrior/soldier/hero hybrid find of fun other then that it was boring

If you knew how to read OPs instead of rushing into a hate post you would know I don't hate Zelda.

Here's an idea that just occurred to me. Like I said earlier, there are some parts of the game I found very enjoyable which I would have liked to revisit, but other parts that are so tedious they make replaying the whole game not worth it IMO.

With that said, how about downloading a few save files off the Internet that are just before the better portions of the game. That way at least the purchase isn't a total loss for you, and you get to skip ahead as you please.

Saves I would look for would be just before the Water Temple, and also just before looking for the trail in the snow that leads to the snow temple, as well as before the temple of time.

If you give examples of sections you enjoyed in previous Zelda's I could try to recommend additional portions of TP.

I have to admit I didn't finish it either. I didn't even get very far.
