Is Zelda WindWaker hard enough to have to buy a strategy guide?

SadnessI · 04-04-2008, 03:15 AM

Hi, for OoT and Majoras mask i needed a guide to beat em, those 2 games have been the only games ive ever have needed a guide for, in my whole gaming life lol.. So what im trying to say is i dont suck at games.. So do you think windwaker matches up on hard/confusing (not that the boss or w/e was hard, the hard part was knowing what to do next lol) to the other 2 N64 Zelda? Reason i ask is since i got it shipped to me from goozex today, so wanna know if i should buy a guide on ebay before it arrives, or if its easy compare to OoT/MM... Thanks for advice ahead of time.

I didn't think so, the dungeons were tough but I always just figured it out before I resorted to a guide. Wind Waker is challenging enough to be stumped on some bosses and puzzles but is easy and fun enough that you shouldn't need to resort to a guide.

I hope you have fun playing it, Wind Waker is my favorite Legend of Zelda.

fantastic game btw, i had it reserved when it was first released

i dont think you need a guide, its not quite as massive as OoT (not as many dungeons) but because it was made on the gamecube which was just more powerful of a machine it does a great job of story telling, very immersive

all around fun game, to complete the main quest you shouldnt need a guide, if you need any help just get on gamefaqs.com or something and look up a walkthrough or ask on here before you resort to droppin cash

ENJOY YOUR TIME WITH WIND WAKER!

Thanks, for the advice, i wont get a guide anymore. Yea from the sounds of it, it sounds great. I never really got into the zelda games till now, 10 years when OoT came out, i was 9 at the time and it always felt long and i quit. Now fast forward 10 years lol, im 19 and i knew i was gonna buy a wii and TP seem so great that it made wanna beat all the n64 ones, which i did back to back (Zelda Collectors edition) that now i only have WW and phantom glass? to beat before i play TP, im not gonna beat the old classics though lol. Anyways Zelda has been great and im glad i didnt skip the series. Oh btw i am gonna enjoy windwaker

Sorry for the long pointless story lol.

Glad you made the right decision as buying a strat guide for a Zelda game would be like buying a football coach to tell you what plays to run in Madden.

You do it yourself and that makes the game fun.

No there Is no need to waste you money when you can find a decent walkthrough on the internet..

fertogo · 04-06-2008, 06:06 PM

there is no need for a guide

Its not the hardest Zelda game
(master quest I think is the hardest)
Its pritty straght forward

You can always check Gamefaqs

When I played through Windwaker, I did have the strategy guide, and it greatly enhanced the experience for me. In any Zelda game, there are so many sidequests, I just want to play them all! ^_^

if your not gonna play any of the old classics thats not good! you should ATLEAST play a link to the past at some point, even if it is later on down the road and the original LoZ aint bad either

I only really used the strategy guide to find everything

Ahh, I haven't played windwaker is agggggeeeeees. Me and my friend always played it when he came round to my house and we completed it together without using a guide. It get's tough at some points but you can always check on teh intranets

Enedlhach · 04-17-2008, 03:34 PM

I only had to check once, which was because I was being stupid and missing the obvious. But wind waker is a lot easier then the other two that you played so you shouldn't have trouble.
