I mean, there are several pieces of hearts in the overworld that you couldn't get yet, which you must have seen if you've been everywhere.

A Link to the Past: Is this it? I feel like I am missing something

This is ridiculous to read after your thread
Don't worry about it, at least you keep the forum moving. You're definitely not the first poster people have arbitrarily latched on to. I don't get why they find it so annoying, or why they find thread whining to be a better solution than muting the thread if they're actually that bothered.
I've enjoyed your threads, at least.

Hey, for me warping to the top of the pyramid and discovering I had just completed the prologue was mind-blowing and I still hold it as the greatest surprise any video game has given me ever. I pity OP, people couldn't keep their mouths shut and had to rob him of this amazing moment.
I actually did the exact same thing when I was a kid first playing Link To The Past. Coming off of shorter NES games I thought I was about to beat the game and got really angry and frustrated when I realized I had so much left to do (weird reaction in retrospect; I now love how long Link To The Past is and how it has the most dungeons of any Zelda game).
But yeah the 3 pendants are basically the tutorial.
Did you not see the bottomless derth of fan criticism that a lot of what BotW did actively went against the main formula of the series lol? Specifically the dungeon part is mentioned everywhere.
I wish i had this magic when playing the game for the first time, everytime - Thread backfire but a positive one" enjoy OP
Just wait until you try some of the other games!

I mean aside from taking the piss at what Resetera has become I might have created less than 5 "proper" threads over the last 2 years or however long I've been registered so you can fuck off, frankly.
But this place has become a complete parody of itself already. Between the 2 or 3 threads about Death Stranding that get created daily for every single tiny inconsequential detail that dribbles out of Kojima's mouth and the current trend of these ridiculous "Is Microsoft ruining gaming?" threads there is a definite argument that could be made about tightening up the quality control. It's telling that people in the Xbox Game Studios thread are constantly saying it's the only thread they feel comfortable posting or participating in because the rest of Resetera is a garbage fire of shit.
The best part about this game is that it doesn't spoil the dark world part.
Unlike Zelda OOT where the game literally spoils you adult link and Kotake/Koume when the intro plays.

Seriously lmao.
Also you're actually introduced to the dark world right before the third dungeon, what would even be the point of having the mirror if it was just for that 3 minutes sequence lol
I remember the Xmas I got LTTP, I think I literally spent all day playing it. What an enchanting game. Atmosphere out the wazoo from the go.
If there was ever a SNES game worth £40 it's this.

People who play today will never be able to appreciate the surprise a 90s kid without the Internet felt on besting Agahnim...
Having started LA on Switch, I'd love LTTP to get this kind of face lift... it's gorgeous
I'm not knocking LA's remaster, I find the visuals charming and befitting of the game. But I feel that LTTP would necessitate a different art style to convey the dark tones of the story and grandioseness of the adventure.
Yeah, I'd like the 360 degree movement, and some of the physically based rendering they've done - but the characters would maybe need a less toy-like look. Some of the bosses though are literally how my imagination pictured them.. really awesome job
Guys I just got the three spiritual stones in Ocarina of Time and I'm ready to enter the Temple of Time and banish the evil forever. Great game but felt too short, should have at least another 5 dungeons.
I think he is trolling. But decent effort, he made it believable.
Different games.
Wonderful youvejust about finished the first third of the game, come back once youve done the other two thirds.
Now im pretty sure your trolling
I'm genuinely surprised so many people think Link Between Worlds is a remake of Link to the Past rather than a sequel set in the same world. I mean, the painting mechanic that runs through every element of the game gives it away. Maybe it's that the title is reminiscent of LTTP?
LTTP is the better game but the 'become a 2D painting on the wall' effect, used in everything from exploration and puzzle solving and item collection to boss fights and evasion and moving between areas, is a masterclass in having a single core idea and theme running through the whole game.

Go play instead of posting here ;) The new mechanic introduced after Hyrule Castle is completely worth it, and at the time was a huge shock, similar to the time-travelling in OoT, but in a sense more fully implemented than OoT.
This thread reminds me of that guy that kept bringing back MGS3 to the store because he thought the ladder was a bug.
Pretty much, now go pick up a stick, walk up to Hyrule Castle and beat Ganon with it
If OoT used sprites and Majora's Mask used 3D models. :)
I booted it up to see the intro on the Switch online service and ended up playing until the sanctuary, so nope, it's still amazing. Sorry.
That entire opening segment, heading out into the driving rain, fighting through the castle dungeons, and finally escaping through the sewers with Zelda, was an unbelievable experience for me as a kid back in 1992. It still ranks as one of my favorite game openings of all time. It serves as a tutorial, but it also throws you right into the game's story, with tense atmosphere and no nonsense or wasted time. It's just perfect.
Now I'm tempted to start a new game. Even though I should probably finish my other Zelda games.
This thread has made my doctors visit enjoyable! I am honestly not sure if he's trolling or not but god damn this is hilarious.
Imagine every thread about an old game filled with comments like this. Let's not do this please.
At least explain why it's a chore or why do you think it didn't stand the test of time (which I think it does perfectly).
It's really rather a shame how many people have gone after the OP for this thread and for posting threads in general. This is a message board, you all realize that right?
When Phantom Thief isn't self-banning himself for whatever reason he makes dozens of threads a week and no one bats an eye at those. Why are you all being dicks about OP?

Eh, we're being a bit harsh on OP. If you're going into the game blind you wouldn't know about the Dark World. I read all the coverage of the game before it came out, and many people here did too, so we all knew about it going in.
You're right. The large swaths of people who love this game are wrong. The developers who state LttP as an influence in game design are wrong. The fact that pretty much every Zelda up until BotW followed a similar formula doesn't matter.
it's all nostalgia. All of it. You are the sole arbiter of quality. It's everybody else that is drinking the kool-aid.
The SNES era had some truly memorable intro sequences. Link to the Past and Final Fantasy VI are to this day my all-time greats for openings.
I dont get all the replies here. If he hasnt really liked the game up until now than the last half to two thirds arent really going to change anything
Hey all, just started MGS 3, but already close to saving Sokolov and finishing the Virtuous Mission. Is this really it?
Though, I agree, Alttp is not THAT great, imo.
Yeah, I said as much earlier in the thread. The dungeons get better, but if you haven't enjoyed the game up to that point, then I don't think that's going to change your mind.
