This game is nothing short of gorgeous. I honestly wish every Zelda game could look like this, even though I'm likely in the vast minority. Before this second playthrough I would've told you this was my second favorite 3D Zelda game and... that hasn't changed. The Triforce quest was definitely more frustrating this time around. During my first play through I still had that sense of discovery and wonder, and somewhat enjoyed sailing around the ocean on a big treasure hunt. This feeling did not happen during this playthrough; it was just tedious. The only other complaint I have is having to play a Wind Waker song to switch between controlling Makar/Medli in their respective dungeons. It's extremely tedious and could've easily been assigned to a button, or an item you could assign to xyz.

And for the record, Tingle can go fuck himself charging 398 ruppees per translation. That greedy fucking tranny is an asshole.

Aside from that though, I love everything about this game. It easily has the best music in any Zelda game. The title theme music is on of my favorite video game songs ever. The dungeons are fun and the bosses are among the best in the series. Especially Puppet Ganon and Ganondorf himself. Nothing in a Zelda game will ever be as bad ass as shoving your sword up to the hilt into Ganondorf's forehead. Fucking glorious.

Haven't updated in a while, but we finished Wind Waker!

I'm going to try to get these lazy bums to write up their feelings on the past three games considering Freddy and I are really the only ones to have done anything on the blog recently. We are still trucking forward, though!

Our next project is to basically play Minish Cap and Four Swords Adventures simultaneously. Minish Cap when there aren't four of us available and Four Swords when we're all here.

I'll throw up a Wind Waker review in a minute.
