I'm on my way to the first dungeon right now and it's already 100x better than TP. But then again being better than the worst Zelda shouldn't be that difficult. I'll withhold further opinions until I've done more.

swimming controls are ehhhh but not as bad as some people were saying, worst thing controls wise so far is the harp, the third chore for the lumpy pumpkin was really bad

It's bad because you are required to swing the controller faster than you would normally need to and the Wii can't register it.

I don't think it's even that, the programming is wrong for it and so is the explanation given by the owner, he tells you to make broad strokes when you actually score better if you just slash sharply when the hands move, and it sounds terrible that way too but that's what the game actually wants you to do

Does the ??? quest just end after you give ??? the letter?

because giving the letter to Karane isn't the end of the quest - and you get 5 gratitude crystals when you're done, but I never got gratitude crystals when I gave ??? the letter


go to groose's room during the night, you'll get gratitude crystals and it also might turn your world upside down.

I started ignoring the tutorials after Zelda tried to kill me during the flying tutorial.

And you don't need to do dowsing every time, you just need to go into dowsing to get the sound to stop beeping and then explore at your leisure.

So Earth Temple might be my favorite fire-based temple yet. Maybe not on Dragon Roost's level, but that was a pretty damn awesome dungeon.

So I just beat the first temple, and for some reason I'm just not getting into this. It seems like your typical Zelda game, and it's not a bad game at all, I like it. But I can't sit there for hours on end and got lost in it like I did Skyrim.

Yes, the motion controls are annoying and I have actually had my wrist start bugging me after a bit at one point.

I also must admit the boss in the forest temple caught me off guard with how tough the second half was. I got him without too much trouble, I was just surprised at not having a first boss that was curbstompable.

Second dungeon awesome. I'm really impressed with these early dungeons so far, and this talk I'm hearing that they just get better is whoa.

But that just makes me wonder even more... it's no secret that I'm a fanboy of this series. When the Zelda team is "on," I feel like they're the best in the industry (Stone Tower Temple, Arbiter's Grounds, and the Spirit Temple back that up). I think that I got a little glimpse of that with the Earth Temple here; it was very clever and fun. It makes it all the more baffling that a development team brilliant enough to craft that dungeon is stupid enough to not give me the option to speed through text or skip meaningless cutscenes I've already seen. Why, WHY.

You can skip cutscenes. Just press 2. Also hold A for faster text, it doesn't skip through it but it is pretty fast.

Also the game just keeps getting better. Third dungeon so good. Really love the item. And the scene at the end of it was a true epic moment.

I think you can get them from the bamboo cutting minigame for like 15-19 cuts

I have 3 of them and I think that's where I got them

one of the rumors you get told is that guy's best record is 42 cuts. I wonder if there's anything you get for it. I got as high as 38 and I just got the same prize you get for passing 28.

I haven't noticed a big difference in rupees since I started using it, I thought it just increased the drop rate for monster treasures. been spending a lot anyway though, the only things left for me to buy are the 1000+ rupee items and one of them I don't even have the wallet space for, already bought all the wallets I could from beadle...

Btw bug catching is big money. Lanayru Ants are like 20 rupees a piece, they spawn so many in one spot sometimes you can farm enough for 200 rupees in one go. Then you can go through a door and back and they spawn some more!

And catch the butterflies but don't sell them, use them to infuse for potions instead. Same with Bees!

Tip for catching beetles is to run and roll into the wall they are on, no need to catch them just walk over and pick them up. Doesn't work in Lanayru and Eldin, only in Skyloft and Farron.

btw with wii motion plus, to calibrate it says put it on a flat surface. However, I tried that, and it felt just a bit off. So instead I started just holding the damn thing as if I were playing, and it seems to match my motions just a bit better. I could be crazy, but it definitely feels more accurate to me.
