    I’m almost finished playing Zelda: Wind Waker for the first time in about 10 years.

    Firstly it feels crazy to me that its now been as long since the HD Wii U version was released as it was from that release to the original.

    Great game though, amazed I still remember where almost everything is. Exploring the ocean in the first half of the game has always been one of my favorite parts. It does a great job of capturing a whimsical sense of adventure for me.

    My biggest criticism of the game is that it feels like its about 2 dungeons light. There should have been one on the Great Fish Island for the last pearl before you get the Master Sword and there should have been one more after that with a 3rd sage.

    I remember this being commonly held belief back in the day that the game was probably a bit rushed, but it definitely sticks out more to me now than I had recalled.

    Overall still one of my favorite Zelda games, I hope one day they go back to making this sort of style of 3D Zelda because the new ones just don’t do it for me.

      Yeah, Wind Waker is one of those Zelda games I think fondly of.

      More so than Twilight Princess, though it’s arguably the better game.

      Though Wind Waker just felt more fun and explorative.
