You're right. Skyrim has the minor bugs like you'll see a dragon flying backwards or you won't be able to pick up a small meaningless items (lets say equivalent rupees). The comparison isn't fair. I'd rather have 50 minuscule bugs than one giant one that destroys 20+ hours of data......

The glitch is Skyward Sword is really rare and I am sad it happened to someone here. I had many people do the Dragons in the same order and not have the glitch appear.

The bugs in Skyrim shows a huge lack of polish. No offense.

you guys do realize that every other major release seems to have at least one rare game breaking bug that 2 people find and thus the game is ruined for everyone, right? Sucks it happened to someone here but this is not unexpected in any major modern game, short of maybe a Valve game.

The game is a complete failure now. (lol)

Yes, such things suck, especially when you're not prepared for such calamities...
I bet Nintendo's not gonna fix it like they didn't in Other M...or will they suddenly?

you can't fix Other M just by having one less glitch

Well I got through all three dragon segments and no glitches happened.
Guess I lucked out or the problem isn't all that common. Anyway now I can finish the game with no more worries.

Well back to the beginning for me haha. Just ran through Faron and now entered Eldin. Luckily this game is amazing or I wouldn't be doing this lol.

and nice @Link79 Would hate for what happened to me happen to someone else.

Take out the horrible plot and characters, there you go.

...Don't turn this thread into another bash-fest. >_>
I like Other M.

so do I (...sort of), I just have a sense of humor (...sort of).

Can we not soil this wonderful Zelda thread with talk of that crappy metroid game, take that to its own thread

Skyward Sword is awesome! However I am encountering some motion control difficulties...but that's one of the consequences of having most of the control being motion-based, I suppose.

Also is it just me or does the game seem shorter than TP?

Oh yeah, I hate this game.
_{i'm sure that will change, but my last play session with it leading up to lanaryu mining facility was one of the most unfun and unforgiving experiences i've ever had in a game}

Really!? I just went through that area and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm about halfway through the third dungeon! Can't wait to play more.

Anyone think the lore could use an update? I find after playing through quite a bit of the game, that some things seem to be off. The number of races for one thing. Unless something major happens near the end that messes with the current ecosystem (or occurs in an in-between game) we are kind of missing an explanation for two of the races in Skyward Sword (3 if you count Zoras?).

Also, there's only one "goddess"?

I guess you could chalk things up to being lost through time but still....

Here's something I tried and found out while completing the game...
Anybody shoot the talking stones in the eye with Bow & Arrow yet? Bombing 'em is also quite funny...

i must say not since zelda on the snes have a had so much fun with a zelda title that i cant put down, its early on in the game for me as only just started it, about 7 hours in now and im loving it, just wish my daughters didnt wanna play on the wii also so i could get some quality time on it,

Both TP and SS took me 70 hours in first playthrough. I wasn't actually running through each of them, but i'd say they are pretty much even in terms of length.

Well just finished the first temple, upgraded what I could. Not taking nearly as long. 9 hours in and I'm halfway caught back up (excluding side quests though) saw the epic clip after the third temple again! so awesome.
