Wasn't there supposed to be a hard mode this time (finally)?

I really hope. I'm too good at Zelda games now.

[Ephidiel]

it just needs to have an hardmode >___<
the zelda games get easier with each installment

[The Blind Archer]

There already is a hardmode.  It's called the Three-Heart-Run.

Which I'm speeding through with no issues whatsoever.

Easy mode+Sudden Death isn't quite like Hard mode though...

[Shinigami No Tekken]

Aye. This.

thats just fake difficulty

Zelda games simply need to be a bit tougher, that's all. No need for crushing difficulties, just don't make it Twilight Princess easy where pretty much every single boss is given to you on a platter.

[Shinigami No Tekken]

Yeah. Pretty much.

Heck. Phantom Hourglass was one of the easiest Zelda games ever and it's harder than TP.

The entire difficulty of that game stemmed from the control scheme and that damn Sea King temple.

The Sea King Temple is not even hard at all, just way too annoying. And I disagree, in difficulty TP>PH, PH is a complete joke in difficulty.

TP's biggest sin is the fact that it has amazing and epic-looking bosses, which are completely easy and unsatisfying to defeat.

I agree with you on the Sea King Temple, but I don't see what the grudge is with the Touch Screen Controls. I haven't had, nor have, any problems with it.

^ This.

Easy to beat, absolutely. BUT, they were a whole lot of fuckin' fun!

Man. Remember Argorok? I swear, that was epicness in itself. Hanging from peahats while avoiding being roasted by the dragon in a stormy sky.

[Protoman Blues]

The awesome boss music helped a lot too. I agree though, in that I wish the boss fights were harder and that the weapons weren't just for that specific stage only, really.

Not to mention how utterly EMPTY the game was once you finished it.

But they said they'll fix it in Skyward Sword.

[Fxeni]

Yeah, it kinda sucked that once the dungeon was finished, whatever item you got from it was basically useless except for maybe a spot or two outside of it. Some exceptions apply, but it's the usual suspects (bow, clawshot). They really need to make it so that the items serve some use in the later dungeons on a more regular basis, same for out of the dungeons.

[Mirby]

Say what you will about PH and ST, but the items you got in each dungeon were used a lot outside of them on the optional areas and stuff. They got that right.

[Protoman Blues]

It....wasn't so much Empty, just really easy. I mean, not Majora's Mask whilst using Fierce Deity Link easy, but easy nonetheless.

I meant once you beat the game. Collecting Poe Souls and Heart Pieces, it wasn't all that fun as it was in other games. It was just, nothing to do when you finished it.

It was such a sin. The Spinner item had so much, so much potencial to be used as some kind of potencial almost-skateboard if there was a worthy way to spam it out in the field by riding it in some cool way.

[Kieran]

Yeah, TP really overdid it on the items.  Gave you about fifty of the damn things and you only ever used three or four.

Quality over quantity, Nintendo!

I swear to God, if they had put a bit more thought on the Spinner, it could have been Godly.

I guess they didn't want to make Epona obsolete.
