The other game with "Sky" in the title. [Zelda]

Would you say they've dialed back on the puzzle aspects?

It's this power that your companion, Fi, can use to track down important items and characters.

So if you're trying to follow the Dowsing readings excessively, you'll end up confusing yourself.

Edit: And no, they definitely haven't dialed back on the puzzle aspects. Rather, the dungeon's layouts just changed in general, and for some reason has veered away from using keys and locked doors.

Now I wish I still had my wii, im such a zelda hoe... -has beaten minish cap at least 700000 times-

Pretty neat that the original Zelda's lullaby theme is reversed to create the Skyward Sword theme. I'm really looking forward to snagging a copy for Christmas! :D

Who else is playing this? If you're not, why do you suck so hard?

I just started last night. I preordered the damn thing, but it took over a week to get here, and I've been so busy with work that I haven't been able to immerse myself as I'd like. But last night I said smurf it, pulled my gaming chair up to my TV, stroked my gold Wii remote a bit, and started the game.

I haven't gotten very far yet, but I love Zelda and the dash feature has been fun.

Because I don't have a Wii. :(

I have been playing it. I'm only up to the third temple though, or at least nearly there. I'm absolutely loving the game. There are a few graphical glitches, and the controls aren't the best, but it does not even matter because I'm having so much fun with the game. The characterisations of Link and Zelda are the best in the series, their reactions towards each other throughout the game thus far have been incredible cute and endearing.

Currently on the sixth dungeon (in the classic sense of the term at least). Loving the game so far. I only wish there was as much exploration in the skies as there were in Wind Waker's Great Sea.

My new girlfriend insisted on buying this as a Christmas present for me... that being the case I now have to wait three weeks before even starting this game... as much as I appreciate her amazing gesture... I'm pissed off to the max that I've got to wait that long before experiencing this...

Yes. It's been a great experience so far. I love the fluidity of the motions and the artistic style.

Finishing a second playthrough of Twilight Princess instead, but I have my copy, it's just going to be awhile with the holidays and finals. I've been looking forward to it because TP was a fantastic game (tied with LttP as my favorite) so I'm pretty sure this game won't disappoint.

I'm waiting for Christmas. :)

My thoughts exactly...

It's eaten all of my free time. So wonderful.

Gotta agree with Rostum that the characterization is the best I've seen in any of the Legend of Zelda games. For once, the game is less about duty and more about friendship.

I heard that you need Wii Motion plus to play this game or something like that :confused:
