Topic: If I Can't Merge in Zelda U, what's the point?

In Zelda, you can go in a bar as a kid. But in real life, you probably be the worst parent to let your child be in one.

In Zelda the music is better.

In Zelda, you drink milk in a bar. In real life, you drink...flavored milk in a bar

In Zelda you speed up time to progress. In real life you want time to slow down.
In Zelda you put a rock on your face and you're invisible. In real life, you put a rock on your face and you stick out like a sore thumb.

in Zelda, you can merge with walls and go on an epic quest to save a princess and be someone important. in real life, you go on an internet forum to complain about how you cant merge with walls and go on an epic quest to save a princess and be someone important.

In Zelda, you can fall off a cliff and summon a bird to ride on it's back by whistling... In real life, the bird will probably eat you after you fall to your grave.

In Zelda, you can fall off a cliff and possibly appear on the edge of the cliff. In real life, you'll appear at the bottom of the cliff.

In Zelda, you live in a world constantly threatened by evil. In real life, you can sit back and play Zelda with not real threat and if you get bored, you play another video game. I chose real life.

Yeah, although I wasn't really complaining! But you nailed it. Merging is the coolest and all the other stuff you mentioned (you forgot 'solve puzzles' and 'upgrade your gear') is just icing on the cake. I can only dream that the next Zelda title on Wii U will have a game-play mechanic half as cool.

In Zelda, strange old men in caves give you swords and tell you to go rescue monarchs.

In real life, strange old men in caves smell like cheap wine and will probably try to cut a fool.

in zelda work is boring... wait, what?

think im confused!
