The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
|
Player's Review
Latest Zelda game for the Wii developed by Nintendo EAD and, surprisingly, Monolith Soft (or so it is said.) This is an ACTUAL Wii Zelda game (Twilight Princess is a Gamecube Zelda game.) This is a pretty long Zelda game (it is said Twilight Princess is the longest Zelda game, but I wouldn't know since I never played it.)
Follow Zelda as he flies on a giant bird to rescue a girl. A talking sword or something is involved.
This game makes use of the Wii Motion Plus for all sorts of things, like attacking and aiming. When I played it the first time, I was playing it wrong (trying to use the sensor bar to move cursor and stuff.) Oh, and combat isn't your typical "spam sword = WIN!" on normal enemies.
This [really long] longplay goes for 100%! This would include all Heart Pieces (and 2 Life Medals), upgrading all items (except Capacity Items. They are irrelevant.), finding all Goddess Cubes and Goddess Chests, getting all 80 Gratitude Crystals, and getting the Hylian Shield. I do get some treasures. Item farming was done "off screen" before going into the Lanayru Mining Facility, hence why I have all the treasures. However, I don't read plaques and stuff for hints, talk to NPC, and I don't play the Thrill Digger minigame (think of it as Minesweeper.) There are me saving A LOT (You never know what will happen while recording), me having no sense of direction (spams Map button), a few near-death experiences, me derping due to not paying attention (recording, playing, and typing in the IRC DO NOT MIX!), and me sometimes getting confused. X_X Sometimes, the Wii Motion Plus derped on me, thus having Link's sword going ALL the way to the right. That is why I take the sword out now-and-then. Sometimes, it REALLY hates me (underwater sections, ESPECIALLY on the Water Dragon's Song of the Hero segment.) There are a few segments that can REALLY use some improvement (Shield bashing in general, The Imprisoned segments, Stalmaster segments, and the final boss. Stalmasters always give me problems and I couldn't stagger the final boss for 3 more hits. =/)
Split into many parts by "sections", especially sidequests aka "filler".
Parts:
1 - Beginning
2 - Faron Woods
3 - Skyview Temple
4 - Opening Eldin Province/Sidequests
5 - Eldin Volcano
6 - Earth Temple
7 - Opening Lanayru Province/Lanayru Desert
8 - Lanayru Mining Facility
9 - Accessing Isle of Song
10 - Farore's Trial/Gaining access to Ancient Cistern
11 - Sidequests
12 - Ancient Cistern
13 - Nayru's Trial/Gaining access to Sandship
14 - Sidequests
15 - Sandship
16 - Din's Trial/Gaining access to Fire Sanctuary
17 - Sidequests
18 - Fire Sanctuary
19 - True Master Sword/Sidequests

21 - Boss Rush
22 - Goddess's Trial/Sky Keep
23 - Finale
