Games I Have Finished (as far as I can remember)

[DMiller]

I don't know if this is because you're just playing it now ABF, but when I first played LttP the fun of the game was the exploration. I didn't always care about going from Dungeon 2 to Dungeon 3 to Dungeon 4. Usually I would wander around in search of heart pieces or whatever else I could find. That's probably how I ended up finding things like the Ether and Quake Medallions because I never remember having trouble getting into Misery Mire. I had already found Ether by then. Nowadays I tend to rush through games since I don't have as much time for them so that may be the problem you had. Also, the puzzles in the game were even better if you played the game when it first came out because LttP created many new puzzles that hadn't been seen before and are now staples of the Zelda games. Those puzzles were probably easy for you since you have a lot of Zelda experience, but they would have been challenging back in the day. One of my favorite parts of LttP was finally figuring out how to solve a difficult puzzle. The only fault I ever found in LttP was the fact that finding the heart piece in the digging game was random chance. I knew there was a heart piece there but it was never in the same place. Other than that there was little I didn't like about the game.
