LeonhartFour 02/04/20 4:57:08 PM #233:	#70. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Did you know theres a Twilight Princess manga? Its still ongoing, in fact! The latest book was just released in English last month! Ive thought about trying to read it because it looks pretty interesting (Link talks in it, for you purists who were wondering!). Anyway, I believe Twilight Princess was the first Zelda game I actually played to completion. I dont even know what initially intrigued me so much about it. Up to this point, I had already unsuccessfully attempted Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, and Majoras Mask. I think I just liked the look of the game. The art and the previews for it were really cool, especially after how cartoony Wind Waker looked. It was a total 180. Dont get me wrong. I dont have an issue with Wind Wakers aesthetics. I own the game and might even play it someday! But yeah, Twilight Princess was where it was at, regardless of what people may say about its color palette! As for what makes Twilight Princess good, it excels at a lot of the traditional Zelda stuff. Dungeons? Check. Snowpeak Ruins is just straight up fun. I love that place. Arbiters Grounds just looks amazing and has a great design. Temple of Time has a great atmosphere. City in the Sky just feels massive and its fun to navigate your way through it with the double clawshot. Speaking of which, weapons and gadgets? Check. The double clawshot lets me act like Spider-Man. That alone is worth the price of admission. The Spinner is also just plain cool. Even the Dominion Rod is a really neat concept! The Gale Boomerang was pretty fun, too. I dont want to hear about how theyve got relatively limited utility outside of the dungeon where you get them because yeah, sure, that might be true, but they make the dungeons theyre a part of so much more fun! Bosses? Check. Case in point with the Spinner because Stallord is so much fun because of it. Argorok is a giant flying dragon with a great atmosphere. I honestly really loved the Zant fight. I thought it was really fun and cleverly done. The presentation is so good. Twilight Princess even managed to make Ganondorf seem kinda cool, which might be its biggest achievement! I guess you cant discuss Twilight Princess without at least touching on Wolf Link. I actually liked the Wolf Link segments. The Twilight Realm was really cool in terms of ambience and presentation. Midna is whatever to me. She doesnt move the needle one way or the other in my opinion of the game. At least shes not actively annoying like Navi, so Ill take it. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:933932096] in Leonhart R...
