Videogames you love, videogames you hate thread

There were a bunch of things that bothered the hell out of me in Twilight Princess:

First off, I was really disappointed with how the last three dungeons played out. I mean, there was nothing that really bridged a gap between the Sky Temple to the Twilight Realm to the Hyrule Castle, and I was extremely disappointed by this rush. I mean, they could have had, like, one last wolf segment to get a small fragment of the mirror before getting to the Twilight Realm, just to get rid of that feeling of being rushed.

Second, the items were used really disappointingly. I'm not going off of what Giz is already saying, but what he mentioned were a few things I was unhappy with. What REALLY irks me is how the items you find are incredibly badass but serve very little purpose in the temples aside from the ones you find them in. The Gale Boomerang, for instance, applied to just that Forest temple, but I can't really remember it being used for much else outside of it, or at the very least it being used creatively to solve a puzzle. Same thing with the Spinner (which was an insane item), the Dominion Rod and the Ball and Chain, there weren't any real creative uses for them besides "ride walls" or "possess this statue even though its range is only a quarter of the room" or "break walls". Instead, they overplayed the Clawshot and made that an item you needed to have on you at pretty much all times.

I was also pretty sad at how they thought that upgrading your sword solely for the Twilight Realm was a good tool that you needed for that eighth dungeon. I mean, it wasn't even useful outside of the dungeon / the rest of the game : (



Oh, and TP started the whole "no more magic meters" trend so there's that too :F
