Bold take but if this is your strategy for this type of game you are not fit to run a company

A smidge below powerslave (which is like a top 10 of all time for me) but still exceptional and that run in the mid 80s is insane.

Like, ffs, just ask me, especially as I'm likely consuming less water than I should be.

Yeah I've never touched the Oracle games. Should get round to that at some point.

Also, the lever you need to pull in order to raise the water and gain fill access to the Swamp Palace, you need to do it each time you start a new session. It's a minor thing but through 2026 eyes it feels like a huge oversight.

For one, I forgot while in the dark world you ALWAYS START AT THE TOP OF THE PYRAMID, instead of, oh, the entrance to the dungeon you were in when you saved is a particular delight.

After wrapping up Twilight Princess I've decided to give LTTP a spin as it's been an unreasonably long time since I last played it. Veeeery interesting playing through 2026 eyes and looking at the things the game does and doesn't remember to store with each session.

I'm 2 months from my grandfather's passing and it hits in waves, and will likely continue to do so and I miss him terribly, but I know he's at peace and resting till we meet again.
