As a big Zelda hater as a kid, I skipped the series completely. I’ve been going through to experience them all in order now. I really enjoyed the first two games of the series so I expected to like this one too. What I didn’t expect is was that it really is one of the best games on the Super Nintendo if not one of the best games of all-time.

    I also played it recently for the first time and my impressions are that it is too damn hard lol.

    Previous Zelda games were:

    Majora’s Mask 3DS

    Ocarina of Time 3DS

    Twilight Princess

    Phantom Hourglass

    So maybe ALTTP is harder than all of those combined lol.

      This has been my experience with it. I really struggle with games where your directional inputs are just up, down, left and right because the attacks and blocking are based on what direction you’re facing. Funny thing is that I grew up with a mega drive and ps1 plus an old Compaq pc and I had a game boy colour and advance as well as a ds so I should be ok with four direction based movement games.

        Yeah definitely the 4 direction movement was a big player in the difficulty scale for me.

      I can see that, especially with the early game when you don’t have heart containers and you don’t have the master sword either. No shame in playing with save states if you have access to switch online or an emulator.
