-Very dissapointing to see the deaths counter removed, I loved it in the older Zelda games.
It's there. As DJ said, you don't see it until you beat the game.
-Also, the game is tough. A lot of enemies seem to move so fast... :) I've died like 10 times now at least (maybe 15 on the high end) and I'm about to go into the mysterious woods and get the sword... I've pretty much gotten used to it, but I played LA after and that one the enemies don't seem to go as fast... take the Mini Moldorms. They move a lot quicker in LttP! And those little red guys who shoot, and the soldiers seem faster too (maybe)... is it just me?
LTTP is tougher than OOT and Wind Waker, for sure, but it's not nearly as hard as the first two Zelda games are. Though, honestly, if you're having problems like that this early in the game, you're in some trouble, because the difficulty ramps up considerably after you get the Master Sword.
-I really like how LA has a shield that actually WORKS. Useless arrow-blocker shield! :)
Yes, if you want to waste a space using it. I never did. :D
-Navigating the item menu is kind of a pain. It should be like LA where you can select the empty spaces.
Why would you want to select empty spaces?
-Oh, and my point that LttP has a 'center and 8 locations around it' map is absolutely accurate. It's iike your center point (pyramid or castle), and a different locale in each of the 8 directions in a ring around it... LA as I said before mixes it up a lot more, with areas all connected and mixed together and not just in two simple rings. I like that more and it's that diversity (more variation and a more interesting map, and more compact things -- as I observed when you posted that LttP map the trees in that game are 4 times larger than trees in LA... it just has a more interesting map than LttP. Oh LttP is great, but the map is less imaginitive for sure.
-LA is still better. :D
Eh... if you say so. I felt LA had some good points but in the end was not as good as LTTP. LA, for one, was too easy. LTTP still gets me when I let my guard down (as opposed to OOT, which, while I've played it less than LTTP, does not challenge me anymore.)
