Message: [QUOTE="Adrastia, post: 287016, member: 781"] AoL was my first Zelda. I didn't play the original until a few years later. I initially thought that the original Zelda was awkward because it wasn't a platformer with top down overworld. It was all top down. And to me that wasn't Zelda. It took a little longer for me to get into it. But after playing ALttP I liked the original a lot more than I did in the beginning. People sometimes forget that AoL was only the second game in the series. I could see the annoyance if they just sprung side scrolling action at you after a few more games. You have to remember that platformers were very popular and games with gameplay variations like AoL seemed really neat from a variety standpoint. That said, it took me over 20 years to beat AoL. I wanted to do it on real hardware and ended up using the Gamecube version from that promotional disc. I even made a [URL='https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/563487-zelda-ii-the-adventure-of-link/68892792']post[/URL] on GameFAQs to commemorate it. [/QUOTE]
