Legend of Zelda – Twilight Princess (Wii)
People in newsgroups wonder why it takes me so long to complete a Zelda game. It’s very simple. I spend hours and hours mucking about with silly things. Last night, for example. I finally completed the Goron Caverns, and on returning to the village discovered that there’s a sniper-scope type attachment available for the bow. Obviously this created a NEED void. Except it cost 100 rupees and I only had three. Except three seconds after registering that it needed 100 rupees I convinced myself it was actually 200. So off I went on a quest to find 197 rupees. Lawnmower stylee.
After wandering all over hyrule field and, eventually, getting as far as the forest temple, I eventually collected a big pile of rupees and began to make my way back. Unfortunately, when I got to the WRONG side of the poisonous lake thingy that you need to wave your lantern at, I realised I’d ran out of oil, so had to go and nick some from the silly flappy bird that always attacks me (because I keep nicking oil from it, I expect).
To cut a long story short, I got back to the village and got the snipy thing (which is ACE) then discovered I could buy bombs. Except I need a bomb bag. And I don’t have enough rupees. So, tonight, I shall be off on another epic romp in search of coin.
