Ok, so some people want the next zelda puzzles/dungeons to be easier than the water temple. However, I never saw how the temple is all that hard. I've beat it countless times, and can't say I've ever had a problem. A bit of exploring and you get through fine. Heck, I wouldn't mind if all the dungeons were that complex as it makes the game more interesting. But rather than theorize on how hard the game was, I figured a poll would give us some incite into this.

As a side note, would you want future games from Nintendo be be as complex, or even more complex than the water temple?




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I hated that temple, it was boring, easy and anoying (as every water zelda temple, execpt ALTTP)



I want my games to be challenging, but.. i dislike water levels o.o (havent finished OoT)



Nintendo is the best videogames company ever!

I liked the temple. Not my favorite, but I don't have any complaints about it. My favorite part would have been the shadow link. Personally, so long as a game doesn't use cheap tactics where guessing/luck is necessary, I'd love some really tough dungeons.

As someone who grew up with Sonic the Hedgehog, I've learned to hate and despise water in video games (hooray for bubble shields!).

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time reintroduced me to that hatred.

it was the only temple where I needed a guide for some parts...



I went with 'I had a few problems, but...' response. I remember getting a little confused at one point, but I worked out the solution pretty quickly.

This for me, too. Took me a while to find that key under that block, but that's about it. As soon as I got to Dark Link, it was all gravy.

Except for actually fighting Dark Link, of course.



I'll let you know when I'm finished with it.

Been searching for keys in it for a couple of days now and I'm getting annoyed.
