Again too much on developer intent. I understand the less than honest ways games can be hard of the era. And like the way I said that EVERY game doesn't need to be fair, it's also true that not EVERY, or even most games, need to be unfair. That era was knee deep in that shit, and zelda isn't even on the upper end of BS.

But just throwing it all away because some of the motivations were impure doesn't mean there wasn't something lost in the name of "fun" that just means you can beat the game with modest effort. Like, it's alright dude, you don't have to play and like zelda 1. Not every game is designed to be fun for you specifically.
