The Official Nintendo Magazine has revealed that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is easier to play through than the highly regarded Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Whilst you may think the combat would be tougher due to the precise nature of Wii Motion Plus, Steve Hogarty from the publication says that you’ll soon learn exactly how to find enemies weak spots and destroy them in no time.
first
mwahahahaha!
COOL, THANKS FOR THE USEFUL INPUT!
Your welcome oh and I got the first reply to!
Attencion whore
Sorry I dont understand your words, to bad I dont know what your saying, hahaha.
sorry did you mean “too?” Attention whore.
No speak english.
Hahahaha, its fun to not give a crap.
that’ll get you far in life. Have fun pumping my gas for me.
Ya when your car gets broken down, you search for help, I wont help you, have fun getting stranded. Hahahaha
Your future employment at McDonalds keeps getting brighter with each post.
leave the poor kid alone, lml.
Yeah. I feel sorry for the “poor kid” who is recieving all this attention and loving it…
the important thing is that it will be awesome
Okay, ghfhfhgfhg, you’ve validated your existence for the day. Now, go dust your wax family and put on your good stilettos.
Hahaha, its the internet, your gonna cry to mommy?
Toufin up and get a life.
Whoa, somebody’s mad. Must’ve hit pretty close to home, yeah?
Your mommy must be proud.
yay everyones angry
Ah ha. You’re the leader of the R. Healy IX fanclub, aren’t you?
What the f**k does being first prove, except you have no life?
Hmmmm?
shocking
Hope theirs a hard mode and easy mode in the game.
Like in Luigi’s Mansion with the Hidden Mansion?
I am really excited to play this game, I am playing through Wind Waker for the first time right now, and its incredible, I have heard that this might be as good or better, Twiligth Princess left me feelign a little cheated, actually I havent finished it yet, I got stuck and went back to wind waker, after I found it cheap at a pawn shop
Twilight Princess was HUGE. But this also made it underwhelming to me because it lacked content… Don’t even get me started on the “boss” fights… Hardest one was the Yeti Mansion fight, creepiest too lol. But I think it was after I beat the water temple boss that I decided the bosses in TP were waaayy too easy.
Let’s hope the second playthrough mode is harder
x1000 harder at least
So wait, is the game itself easier, or is the combat easier?
yes, that ^ ^
which is it sickr?
Hopefully they just mean that getting the Wii Motion plus to do what you want it do is easier than playing OoT was with the 64 controller because the wiimote plus is so precise that you cannot fail…?
Hopefully that makes sense lol. At any rate, I sincerely hope this does Not mean the game itself is “easier”. TP was stupid easy. We do not need/want another easy Zelda
That sucks
HOW DARE SOMETHING HAVE A DIFFICULTY THAT IS EASY
*pitchforks*
Orcarina of Time was the most easy zelda game I ever played…
same here, wind waker was harder for me
For me, first Zelda play was Majora’s Mask. Later all of the zeldas are enjoyable.
I just hope the story is not quite as suckass as twilight princess’
If A > B and A converges, then B must converge as well.
Arguably the simplest thing about calculus right there. Just because they tell us SS is easier than OoT, it doesn’t relay the extent to which it’s easier.
Hopefully only marginally…
oh look someone trying to show off.
and how embarrassing to get such a “simple” thing wrong. The order of growth of A must be greater than the order of growth of B, not the actual values of the functions.
seeing how pointless some of the comment here are i am going to make one too
1+1 is 11!!
on topic: GOD dammit Nintendo i want a harder Zelda!!! :(:(:(
3 heart run?
Master Quest or the normal story? Master Quest was a pain the butt. But if it’s easier than the normal Ocarina of Time (not Master Quest) then I may be beating it quickly. :(
WHAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTT???????????? also randomness why didnt anyone get there pokemon rumble blast game?
What r u talking about? I’m playing right now.
What im in Florida and i called every gamestop bestbuy and walmart i know and everywhere said they didnt get them today. I AM SOOOO CONFUSED LOL
Ah I didn’t get mine here in Texas either… Though gamestop did send me a text saying that my order will be in tomorrow -.-
At least if it’s harder than Twilight Princess… I hope the bosses don’t take half a heart per hit. Even the final boss in TP took ONLY half a heart. I get unusually upset about this. =P
AGREED. I had to go out of my way to make the game feel challenging, like playing upside down, switching the wiimote to my left hand and stuff. Maybe the TP’s Link was just too damn strong from wrestlings all those goats and gorons lol
No surprises here. Ocarina of Time was tame compared to ALttP, and that’s a process that’s continued since then. To hear that Skyward Sword will be easier than Twilight Princess boggles my mind though. I mean… did ANYONE actually DIE in Twilight Princess?
I died alot in Twilight Princess especially against Ganaondorf. I don’t know you guys saying Zelda is getting is easy isn’t that bad as long as they are fun that;s all that counts not if a game likes to kick your ass.
The problem with the new generation of Zelda games is that they’re entirely too easy, especially for veteran players. This article really doesn’t get me excited for the game :(
Not sure if I like this or not. Either way I’m still pumped about this game. Hopefully this just means that there isn’t a Water Temple that takes 8 years to figure out. lol
Why on earth would you post this as its own article? Your last post gave a link to ONM’s article containing this question. That should suffice. You even bothered to explicitly say “do not click this link [if you don’t want to be spoiled].” I skimmed the questions in the linked article to see the nature of the questions – many contained rather large spoilers. This isn’t the most offensive of them all, but it’s still something not everyone would like to know.
And to avoid “why were you reading the questions”: I read only the questions, which were bold and highlighted in blue. I did not read the answers, which were substantially smaller and in typical black font.
He’s trying to get as many comments as possible… More controversy = more publicity
I read the entire interview, they said it was easier than Twilight Princess as well.
Easier than Ocarina of Time, sure, that game was really hard to new-comers at some points. Easier than Twilight Princess? No.
… I don’t know what to say here? I mean, honestly, explain easy for me, okay? The battle system was easy, the bosses were easier (In the ability to fight them, not by damage), the puzzles were easy (Just take away the Water Temple) and all of that was in OoT. The only one hard thing for me was getting Epona in the N64 version and getting the Big Goron Sword (Most of the time I went without). So what your saying is… The battle system is easier? The bosses are easier? THe puzzles are easier? I doubt it. Pics or it didn’t happen. (xD) I’ll see it when it happens
it could be easier only when you take the hint movies into account.
Im not gonna lie this new zelda game looks like shit compared to Skyrim, i think ill stick to the Big Boy RPG’s
Implying they’re comparable?
Yup he is.
Awnsered your quistion?
Oh, lord, ghfhfhgfhg’s got a vendetta against me. At least I’ve given him some form of purpose.
Cuz Zelda is an RPG? Oh wait, right, don’t feed the trolls…
agreed, imo.
Why some people still think Zelda as an RPG? I know RPG is famous but this is not RPG. You don’t directly throw bombs at enemy (Plus direct action a lot more) if this is an RPG. Totally no level at all, no setting comment.
Zelda is an Action Adventure Game. May just contain RPG elements but many games out there also got these type of elements. Make them RPG? NO.
Bah! just command.
Just because it’s easier than another game doesn’t automatically make the as a whole easy.
Hmm I remember an article like few weeks ago saying this game will be the hardest Zelda game yet.
This.
I think for people who haven’t already played the game, which is pretty much all of us who don’t have access to the game shows.

This is a very unclear article, Sickr.

Nintendo… why don´t you go across the street and buy some condoms? I at least wanna have some protection before you F@CK ME! xD
Kidding of course, but still… not really : /
Zelda is easy enough as it is, make it harder if anything!
I think there are some pictures of Nintendo themed condoms on the internet somewhere.
Its probably easier for him because he is used to the 3D Zeldas (no matter how old he was when he played OoT, tge 3D perspective would have made it seem harder.
Waaaait, wait wait wait.
Didn’t Sickr say in one of his previous blog posts that SS would be the most difficult Zelda game to date? I hope this relates only to combat and not to puzzles.
Anonymously I say, The only probably I had in Ocarina of Time was the water temple, and it wasn’t really a problem. it just took so long.
I think Nintendo should just finally embrace the idea of DIFFICULTY LEVELS! Wow, what a unique and unheard of concept that is.
Maybe then it will satisfy the veteran players and the newcomers.
second quest is in the game like in Wind Waker or OoT Master Quest
That why they have a SECOND QUEST then you will be getting you butt kick by the FABULOUS LORD!
Figures, the videos looked like it would be an easy game… OoT is still the king imo.
“groan” ugh I want a challenge! Twilight princess was by no means hard (didn’t even bother getting most of the heart containers) and this is going to be easier? -_- I was hoping it would be more like Zelda 1 or 2 in terms of difficulty… heck even Majoras mask difficulty would suffice.
well at least I have MH Tri kicking my butt these days… darn +monsters….
pretty sure they’re only talking about combat.
if its easier than oot then i can beat this game in a day
But…OOT is easy…
Obviously there’s a misunderstood, its talking about combat, not the mechanich or history there…
What 3D Zelda has been hard? I played through OoT for the first time ever a week ago. I died once to Bongo Bongo and once to Ganon. I think it’s the order you play the games in that determines the difficulty, I played the Zeldas backwards and they got progressively easier.
Combat isn’t complex at all in Zelda, but with the addition of puzzle based combat, I can’t imagine SS’s being easier.
Whatever though, the game got a 10 from Edge, one of the harshest review companies, that should say something. This looks to be an amazing game.
wAIT?! I’m sure i saw a news saying Skyward Sword is the hardest Zelda ever!
Look at this link and see that it was true http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/30936/zelda-skyward-sword-is-the-hardest-zelda-yet/
Not enough? See this http://mynintendonews.com/2011/09/29/nintendo-wii-the-legend-of-zelda-skyward-sword-is-the-hardest-zelda-yet/
SICKR?!!! YOUR MAKING MY MIND FEEL WIERD WITH SARCASM!?
If they make it too hard people won’t like it. Look at Zelda II. I like it, but most people don’t because it’s too hard. And it may not even be that Skyward Sword is easier as it is that all of the puzzles that Zelda uses in it’s 3D games have been seen already, while they were new in Ocarina of Time.
