Which should Skyward Sword have more of???

I kinda like doing main quest objectives that lead up to the dungeon:
TP-wolf and bug killing WW sailing for stuff(needed),OOT-ice cavern etc,MM- had the most because of lack of dungeons such as getting the main quest mask, saving the monkeys and things like that
But then again the dungeons are fun to do, and i like the feeling of conquering them, which should SS have more of to you?

I want the game to be sorta like ALttP, where some of the last dungeons where only accesible by using a magic medallon that was hidden miles away from the actual dungeon. The game should make us explore as much as possible, so my choice in the poll was mine quest stuff outside of the dungeon. I think that having 6 - 9 dungeons in the game, would be enough.

dungeons just feel so EPIC to me. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE both, and I would love alot of both, but Dungeons are the reason I love Zelda so much, it feels like a huge accomplishment to beat one (even if it isn't hard. It's just Link with his skills in there.

More and Longer Dungeons for me

BUT under one circumstance... Make the items of the dungeon as well as the older ones you collected equally useful in there. Zelda has been mostly about the Dungeons and your quest to fight Ganon/ the bad guy and save Zelda and Hyrule, and most of the fun is to be had from the puzzle's and other stuff you get from dungeons

But that's just my opinion

Too much "dungeoring" would get repetitive after a while, I'd say a balance would be the best, but the time not in a dungeon should not be just traveling from a dungeon to the town close to next one, but doing stuff, investigating about the whereabouts of a dungeon, exploring, and all that stuff.
But if what they said about changing the overworld>dungeon formula was true, then I just don't know what to expect, I'd like both stuff to be merged, like the whole overworld being a huge dungeon with smaller, more "packed" parts that would serve as the main dungeon stuff. And of course, all elements that were before on the overworld would remain there.

I never really did the sidequest, so I'll go with more or longer dungeons ;-)

Not sidequest, i meant mainquest stuff, meaning you have to do them to beat the game, NOT OPTIONAL

A good amount of dungeons (about 6-8 dungeons), then a few sidequests (2-3 sidequests), and a bit more exploring for me, would make the game better and more enjoyable to play, in my opinion, because I find it'd make the game more fun.

It should be balanced, in my opinion. After I finish a dungeon in a Zelda game, I'm eager to get back to the overworld and do more exploring with my new items and such. When a dungeon comes soon after another, I'm always like, "Already?! I just finished one!" The game becomes dull to me when its just dungeon after dungeon. So having some in-between stuff in the overworld would be great to seperate them out more. It doesn't have to be that much, just like one main quest in the overworld per dungeon. However, I would rather have the game be filled with optional sidequests than main quests that just happen to be in the overworld. The best thing would be to open up a whole ton of sidequests after each dungeon to keep someone busy who doesn't want to just rush to the next one, but can still go the next one at anytime.

ahahah this is easy!
3 a 8 dungeons...is normal...this it number of dungeons....or not?

We need to have lots of dungeons, but at the same time there should be more side quest options.
Use Majora's Mask as an example but slap on some more dungeons and you got 100% perfection.

It should be balanced, but i choosed for more things after the main quest, when i beat an zelda game, i am never looking forward to find all the heart pieces/golden bugs/poe's/sea charts/treasure maps/bunnies/stray fairies/cursed skullantula's and etc.

There should have been an option for more sidequests. The main story however can have many long dungeons, doesn't matter.

I see... I read that wrong, though I still say dungeons should be bigger. TP had this (Searching for those statue thingies) and I hated it.

I would like challenging dungeons, maybe only a few like MM paired with alof of sidequests.
But also maybe once in one dungeon you come to a part where you need a specific item. Instead of getting it from the temple, you need to go to a little mission to get it outside the dungeon. So it gives you a break from the dungeon, changes the temple -mini boss- item routine and evens out the in dungeon with out of dungeon.

TP was far too much in dungeon.
MM seemed more out of dungeon to me.
WW seemed fairly even to me.

Those all have good and bad parts though. So I guess since I like tha variations, I would probably like it either way.

I added two options to the poll; you can now choose "Side quests!" and "Surprise me."

^_^

When nintendo made oot, they surprised us. this surprise was good. it was fun. it was the first of the series to do a specific thing. if nintendo surprises us with something new, it will be pretty good, most likely. at least we know the combat system kicks butt. I'm I really the first one to choose the last choice?

I say everything on that list, but most importantly, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND A BETTER PLOT!!! I'd like to feel more motivation for Link as a main character to do what he does. I'd also like to care about the people I'm saving and working with.

The guys over at nintendo arent the best story writers or character developers, in case you didnt notice,

Dungeons should be a litttle longer like they were in wind waker and Ocarina of Time but if its so big with not much in them then its a waste of time of making big dungeons if you ask me everything should be done in moderation!

And they need to do side quests that actually are worth the time and effort!
