This is probably the best NES game.

I'm very young (not a boomer) and I really like this game.
It stands out pretty well for having 0 story and getting to point real quick, Very hard and you really need to go out of your way to find the dungeons.

I know BOTW in a way does what Zelda 1 was doing but more expanded but I still think this game deserves to exist in its own right.

I think this game is becoming nostalgic for me, I remember being blown away when I played this game for the first time and a decent while after that.

I have a really nice memory of trying to just tame a horse for like 4 hours then I got everyone around my house to try and do it but.. no success.

Can't wait for 2 c:

I can admit this.
I wasn't super crazy about the game as I was going through it.
Once I got to one of the final areas of the game, I realized the special journey I had been on, and ever since then the game hasn't left my mind, It ages better as the days progress.
A decent amount of the characters here are a little weak and not very plot relevant BUT I LOVE YUNA AND AURON. Tidus is really great too!!!

This game has some of my favorite bosses in a video game to date. I was absolutely pushed to my limits and THOSE are the highlights here for me.

WELP! now that all the individual patches are available to be reviewed on their own! 2.0 is going down A LOT.

2.0 is a uninteresting story about a very basic fantasy world but I think it's mostly carried by elements outside of the story like friends, FC's and aesthetics. I was on the copium of hoping that it gets gud later, I didn't really connect with the gameplay because I couldn't understand dragoon. So playing through it gets good later for the first time was a genuine struggle, But I've been able to power through these games before.

Having 3500+ I definitely have high regard for the cities and the areas. there isn't a zone I don't like.

Coils is genuinely very good and the Crystal tower series was really great too.

I feel like I see people either in love with this game or think it's mid. Personally, I'm more of the mindset that its mid,
I feel like the level design is very restrictive and Tbh, and I'm still playing through it, but it feels like a complete chore at times, especially with the boss fights and I'm not having a lot of fun with most levels. Sonic and blaze’s control is fast and it’s amazing but it feels kind of out of place. there are so many pitfalls you can accidentally fall into and annoying enemy placements that can screw you over because of enemy stun leading you into a pitfall. Special stages are pretty good though I can see why people really like them. I also really like the ranking system it’s a bitch and that’s how I like my sonic ranking systems.
Maybe I’ll come around to this game when I replay the levels trying to get A ranks.

This is half the game, I had always dreamed of. I was always wishing for a game that was not a brand new generation, but a new region to establish an open-world gameplay formula.

The only problem is they only made the fricking wild battles ;-;
This game gives me massive vibes to that Zelda Wii shooter tech demo game you get with the Wii gun, because I think it's a really simple game, and there isn't much to it and It's pretty perfect for what it is.

For gen 9 PLEASE make trainer battles fast and fluid. I REALLY love how I can choose to do whatever I want in the battles. if I'm not in the mood to do a battle I can easily run away and do something else. (they fuicked up)

This is a great and fun time, The overworld event that happens before you beat the game for the first time is something completely up my alley and I was NOT expecting it. It kind of flirts with the massive world-changing events that I love from the final fantasy series a lot.

It felt like Scarvio was sadly a step backwards :( but I don't think I could ever go back to this game. I think in a way this game giving me what I wanted has made me come to terms with the fact that I don't need pokemon anymore. I've seen my dream come to life.
