My post was really less of a 'LttP wasn't fresh or new at all' and more of a 'LttP wasn't fresh or new for me.' I'm aware LttP brought a lot to the table, but I can't be amazed by its originality if I've seen it all before. I'm sure someone who's never seen a tree before would be amazed at it while I don't even look at it. It's a tree. Maybe if it was a SUPER ORIGINAL tree, but usually I don't even think about trees when I walk by them. (god, this metaphor sucks)
Alright, you've convinced me, I'll play through it again when I get the chance. Not sure how I'd be more impressed by it this time around though. |
Wasn't trying to argue with you or anything, just using your post as an example. But if you really want to see the contrast, try playing LoZ first and then playing LttP immediately afterward.
On that note, isn't it interesting that LoZ doesn't suffer from this problem? In my experiance at least, people just tend to accept it for what it is and enjoy it anyway. Why do you think LttP gets compared so much more harshly to the newer games?
