The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

i have not once spoken out against motion controls in general, and have mentioned several games that did motion controls well. this is not one of them.

in this particular case the biggest issue is consistency. why should i have to switch between using an analog stick to move on the ground and motion controls to move elsewhere? this is senseless and serves only to show off the developer's lackluster achievements.

I don't get it. If the controls work, what does it matter if you have to switch? That seems like a really silly complaint. Seriously, have you played Nintendo games with swimming any flying? Go play Mario 64 and tell me if you still think the analog stick is better for them. And no, they haven't improved much since SM64. Swimming in TP is unbearable.

i also didnt say its been done better, only that it could be done better and that the motion controls dont do anything a control stick couldnt

Meh. Seems minor to me, but to each his own.

The flying is actually a lot more comfortable if you hold the remote as if you're holding reins

Yeah, I hold reins all the time so it's a natural feeling.

OH NO, I ACTUALLY HAVE TO MOVE MY WRIST. THIS DEVELOPER IS A FAILURE.

I find the flying incredibly stiff. The flapping mechanic is stupid (pointless waggle that adds nothing), and the bird just doesn't move right when you're trying to turn. Swimming is better.

...a leaf blower?

[The Riddler]

lanayru's boss was disappointing.

[DededeCloneChris]

But Ancient Cistern's boss was amazing.

[zephilicious]

this game is so cool it has one notable boss fight

*insert poopty opinion here*

Skyward Sword has spoiled me. Playing OoT 3D is agonizing without a sprint button or the ability to leap up vines.

I'll give you that, I just beat it.
But the temple itself was short and boring as hell.
