THE GAMES WE PLAYED: THE MATURITY OF ZELDA II
By John (@Crono_Maniac)
The Games We Played is a year end round up of thoughts about games we spent time with.
When you put it into the context of the series as a whole, the original Legend of Zelda was something of an anomaly. From A Link to the Past onwards, the games were all interested in telling rich stories, full of intrigue, characters, mysteries, and climactic battles. The Hyrule in the first game feels almost barren in comparison. There aren’t really other characters or even a plot. It’s nothing but you, the monsters, and the mystery of the open wilderness.
Hey look! I wrote about a game I really like!
