Personally I love to enjoy the atmosphere that the Zelda series creates for me...therefore, for obvious reason, I take my time playing the game. I want to be able to explore the various locations that the creators have placed in the game for us. They spent so much time creating a game for us to enjoy so why would we simply rush through it without taking in all the effort that they put into it. Also, rushing through the game makes us more prone to miss key elements of the game, so it is more likely to end up spending more time trying to pick up from where you left off.

By taking my time, I can learn more about the different characters, although sometimes there is reason to rush. For example in Majora's Mask with only 3 day to accomplish various tasks you have to rush. You can't take in the scenery of Great Bay Temple for example and then miss the 3 day deadline since you got hopelessly lost.

Although it is evident that sometimes it is necessary to rush, I would much prefer to take my time and enjoy all the elements of the game. The Zelda series presents such depth and precision with all the work that they have created, and I feel that to appreciate their work, we must take them time to observe every detail.
