Re: Why do a lot of people dislike TP so much?

I wouldn't say I disliked it, but it certainly didn't have the impact of OoT. If there's one criticism that can be leveled against Nintendo, it's that they have a habit of treading the same ground, and TP is an example of this. Much of the races, locales, and even situations seemed lifted from OoT and changed around a bit. Oh, Zora's Domain frozen again? Trouble with the Gorons on Death Mountain again? Etc.

Other criticisms of mine:

-I disliked how characters were introduced and developed. For example, Zelda is introduced early, and then is barely seen or heard from again until the very end, and the same time at which Ganondorf suddenly appears. It felt very sudden and rather contrived, and did not give certain characters a chance to develop at all.

-Too much collecting. Is anyone else sick of the whole "gotta catch 'em all" collecathons many games have become these days? It's not as bad as say, Donkey Kong 64, but I'd wish Nintendo would focus less on collecting various things; it's way too easy for it to become work instead of enjoyment.
