I have it on the cart (well, NES Series, anyway) and after playing it for a while I just couldn't get into it anymore. The total lack of any sort of "extra life" mechanism (other than a levelup with full levels, which doesn't even come into play until very late in the game), the mechanics of Game Over*, and the fact the few extra lives that do exist can only be picked up once really ruins it, since I'm not that good of a gamer (suprise). But then, I also find stupid things like the low Life that almost always ran out too quickly moronic... |
Hearing about how difficult some of the later ones are isn't helping either, since I really dislike backtracking past a certain point (traveling a full overworld like Z2's without warps and only 3 lives is not fun, nor will it ever be)... I play games for fun, not to sit there and redo a super-tedious part over and over, especially for the lackluster ending sequence that was Z2's. Bleh. It's even worse when you consider that Z1 at least had a warping mechanism, so once you found a dungeon you could warp back to it (after Lv5, but you could jump in there and grab the recorder a little early if you tried, I know I did)... Z2's lack of a warp feature just leads to a lot of unnessacary backtracking, especially when you end up dying of something stupid. Regarding the bottomless pit debate, I like it that way, because it at least allows for some error -- I'm sure you would've loved it if falling into a pit killed you, especially considering that there are some really devious traps in Ages/Seasons or even Link's Awakening...
And now for the generic one, my list of favorites: Link's Awakening (suprise) > Seasons > LttP > Ages > Minish Cap (and) Zelda 1 > Zelda 2. Ocarina of Time would probably rank uner LttP, but I've never played it. I've only seen Melvin beat it, but even then he had a lot of trouble with some stupid things... *Stolen from Kid Radd

There will be a server change going on sometime this weekend.
|
The board banner will be going away again for replacement by the big warning doomclock before the board goes down for (probably) a day or so while we sort everything out and make it work again. As usual, you can join the IRC channel while it's down.

As well as none of those stupid bullshit hosted servers.

(Yes, each one is a seperate link, and yes, our server hosts all of them)
