From A to Zelda

I started playing Zelda this past weekend, and, so far, I'm both impressed and depressed.

The game play is great. I love being able to swing my sword, and do all sorts of combos with it. The story is mediocre, and seems rather forced at times, but is workable. The puzzles and quests, however, leave much to be desired. I shouldn't have to go online to figure out what the hell I need to do after the first 30 minutes of playing, yet I did. Twice. The "intro" level didn't explain how to do things, or what you needed to do to complete the quest. It was very vague, and, IMHO, a horrible "walk-thru" of possibilities of the game.

After that, I'm having fun though.

Yeah, I was just in a bit of a funk, and didn't really want to do anything.

A funk because you had to read the directions to Zelda! I try and write Mon - Friday and take the weekends off. I also have feature on my blog that allows me to set post dates for the future. If I have a writing splurge, I can set them to post in the future.

Yeah, that's assuming I have all that much to say during the week! On that note, I'll have a non-gaming post in a minute or so...
