Ocarina of Time Game Diary

[Weltall]

It can be done, yes, but then it just becomes a test of attrition, not one of actual skill, where at the end, the only thing you proved is that you can finish the game with three hearts, which I think most people can do if they try hard enough. But by not recording deaths, you have no idea how efficient you were in going about it.

And besides, the only reason you'd reset after a death is to artificially keep the death count low, so no matter how I look at it, it's either cheating to seem better than you are, or a complete waste of time (what do you gain by not saving and continuing?)
