I didn't like her at all until I got to the ending... then I wanted to cry. But she does get some sort of a "personality" (if it can really be called one) towards the second half of the game (although I'm still convinced she's trying to kill Link instead of play with him)... the ending made me feel horrible that I never cared about her before Y.Y

i honestly hought it would have been a lot harder
flimsykitty says:
I thought the game was hard enough! How hard was the last boss? My sword skills suck so I'm kind of nervous...

Cool things about Hero Mode:
. Whiners who complained about it being ez can have a chance to eat their hearts out. Instant death guaranteed.
. Skyward strike fully charged from the get-go.
. Some characters acknowledge you're playing it in Hero Mode lol

@flimsykitty: apparently you can skip some cutscenes by pressing 2. But it isn't something new to Hero Mode. In fact, when you died and continued your adventure and replayed a cutscene you could already skip it. .... so no, no differences in cutscenes. Only in dialogues with a few people.

@zhelkus: Thanks! It's kind of a let down that there's not much to look forward to in Hero Mode... I was hoping for a second ending or at least more info on Impa. Oh well... I'm already having too much fun dying in the Skyview Temple so might as well keep playing! I've died like seven times already and I'm not even at the miniboss >,>

man the bosses might be easy but they are quite epic, they thought of everything this time around and i also love how they mixed all games into 1, how many out of u guys/girls have noticed that?
flimsykitty says:
@andy198: I dunno... I had trouble on quite a few bosses... I wouldn't call them easy! Compared to Twilight Princess these bosses were kind of tough, especially on Hero Mode >.> I've noticed a few references to past Zelda games but most of it was done as a parody kind of >.> I don't believe Zelda's harp is the one she used in Ocarina of Time... that's way to vague. Her going to sleep was a reference to Zelda II but in a completely different way... Did anyone else see Tingle in Skyloft? ^^

@andy198 The worst boss in my opinion was that squid in the ship place... probably only because it combined all my worst fears into one Y.Y I was literally in tears when the tentacles turned into snakes >.< And Fi's hints didn't help at all! I was shaking the entire battle long because I'm terrified of things like that!
I haven't seen any references to Twilight Princess... although I do miss Midna after dealing with that stupid robot in Eldin >.> Scrapper irritates the heck out of me!
The Official Nintendo Magazine is officially the worst source for accurate info. Before the game came out they said that Tingle wasn't in the game at all and that Fi was less annoying than Navi. 0.0 Did they even play it!?

1 more thing, on Dins flame on hero mode, i have just beat your worst nightmare, that crackon, maduser thing
zhelkus says:
What's worrying me atm is how tough the Boss Rush is going to be on Hero Mode. I want the damn OoT shield!!
I imagine any moment now there are going to be lot's of Speed Runs for the Boss Rush popping up on speeddemosarchive. Wonder how the pros will perform...
Another curiosity... it would be nice to find out whose dialogues contain different text when playing Hero Mode, specifically.

flimsykitty says:
@andy198 How can you beat the game so fast!? I JUST made it to the third temple in Hero Mode (I'm probably slow because of school; but still!)
Do the characters say anything different at the end of the game? I could imagine the dragons and Fi saying something about Hero Mode because they've already broken the fourth wall a few times but does Impa or Zelda say anything new?
zhelkus says:
It could also enhance the spin attack AND the plunge attack when not locked on. Don't know if these last two enhancements are only aesthetic or do actual extra damage. Won't be playing again soon. Somebody confirm this?
andy198 says:
@zhelkus - not just them directions, u can also use the jump slash, the spinning move, the poke (trusting the wii remote forward)...
LxZ says:
The things I did not like about the game would be that it zoomed in on the map every time you went to a new area it got annoying quickly and some small stuff. But it was fun to play.
