Talking Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

I know this probably sounds crazy, but I really can't stand the Shadow Temple in Ocarina of Time. That place is so creepy, from the freeky music to the Wall Masters and Bongo-Bongo. I was just wondering if anyone else felt the same, and why?

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

I found it interesting, but I have to agree with the wall masters really irritating me. And I found Bongo Bongo to be a very interesting boss. One of my favorites.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

Here's what to do.
1. Turn down the volume, and turn on music you like.
2. In rooms with the Ceiling Masters, just kill them before anything else.
That place is pretty easy, when you get the hang of it. Yes, it can get annoying but, you'll get used to it!

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

Hmmm... I'm in the Shadow Temple right now. I don't really think it's that bad, but I haven't exactly spent much time on it.

I loved that music, and the creepy feel. Kinda like I liked Ikana Canyon music in MM. They were both well done.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

She said she didn't like the music, so just a suggestion.

BTW Obsequious Eye, Your sig words color are a little bright, especially on the word "have" kinda hard to read. At first I thought it said "hate".

Left over from sig-reversal day... over a year ago I think now... maybe I should un-reverse the colors again...

Oh, and a suggestion for the temple, when using the lens of truth, press the c-button rapidly, it will flicker on and off, but you will be able to see with it for 100% of the time, and it uses NO MAGIC POWER. That's what I learned to do.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

Hate that dungeon. Not because of the music, the constant textbox interruptions when trying to walk through that one room, but because of how incredibly long it takes to reach the boss room again after dieing.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

I liked it. Th eonly temple in Zelda that actually creeped me out. Blood on the floors and all that... Cool boss too. I say keep it, beautiful example of the ambience zelda can create.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

The Shadow Temple is just a bother. It is pretty creepy, but the main reason I hate it is that it is really frustrating most of the time. It's not especially hard or anything, I just feel like I have to trudge through it for whatever reason.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

It was one of the better temples in my book. Bongo Bongo was also one of my favorite bosses. The only thing I hated was the creepiness of it.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

The temple was very easy and i had no real problems with it but when it got down to Bongo Bongo for some reason I could not beat him! It took me about 8 tries (sadly) to finally beat him.

Re: Anybody Else Hate the Shadow Temple?

I thought it was pretty cool actually... It didn't fit in with the other temples by any means, but it was still great. Stuff like that weird ship and so on made it stand out, and Bongo Bongo just looked cool.
