Quote:5x6=30. +10 for the deep dungeon and you've got 40. Now add an hour of sailing (being very, very generous -- it should be quite a bit higher), which would mean going at top speed, and assuming you could also get all 8 triforce shards almost instantly, and you've got what i said a good player could do it in -- a couple of hours. You are wrong unless you change the definition of the question. Which you probably will do because you cannot bear being wrong.The long dungeon I can do in 8, the others take 3, and the rest including sailing takes 10 minutes. 36 minutes. You suck.
Quote:As I said I may not be quite as good as you and it may take me a bit longer than average (hours count), but that does not make me bad at the game. I KNOW I am right on this and unless you have some dramatically different interpretation of how you do this your "half hour" is impossible. Hour and a half? Maybe. It'd be close, but if you go fast it's feasible, like that 5 minuite game of Mario... but half an hour? You cannot physically move fast enough to do all that stuff in anywhere close to such a small amount of time. And remember there's more to it than just finishing those mini-dungeons...Not only is it possible but I've done it twice and can do it again.
Quote:Umm you DO know that he's talking about that deep dungeon on Outset, which you hadn't really talked about much so that reaction is kind of silly, right? You certainly haven't said if you beat all 50 levels on your first try or how many faries it took you so saying this is just silly, unless you forgot what he was talking about.There are not 50 levels! I never had to use a fairy there.
Quote:As for me, the reason I lost so much health... part of it was that it just wears on you with so many baddies, but the biggest chunks came from several stages where I forgot how to fight some kinds of enemies because I hadn't played in too long. That obviously would go a lot faster on a repeat play and would be easier so I bet on a second try I'd finish the dungeon...I haven't played that section in a while yet I just beat it last night in 12 minutes without the need of fairies.
Oh, and I only have two bottles. If I did have a third and some soup I well might have made it...
Quote: Again an innapropriate response. My response to that same comment of DJ's would be 'yeah that could be one reason that I would consider that cheating, I'm not sure'... Thinking back to Quest for Glory. That's a Adventure-RPG I've had for a very long time. It has stats that you improve with practice as long as you had any points in them in the beginning of the game. Try to climb that tree fifty times and you're better at Climbing. I remember for a few parts I did have to repeat tasks many times, but on the whole I would just play... I didn't for instance walk around Sneaking to increase that stat, or spend hours trying to throw rocks at something up a tree... just seems a waste of time... Anyway, so far I've managed to have enough money by just playing through the dungeons (you get a LOT in that one on the start island!) and pulling up chests every time I see a beacon to hoist from the sea... I don't search for those spots, but if I see one I'll get the item.
If the developers put it in the game as a way to make a quick rupee, then it's not cheating by any defintion of the word.
