I can't believe that there is no realtime day/night cycle, like in every other 3d- Zelda. There can only be day, unless you sleep in Skyloft when night instantly comes. Every other area there seems to be always day. That's a real problem considering atmosphere. Otherwise i'm enjoying the game a lot.

Okay, here are my impressions on the game after 7 hours (at Eldin Volcano)
Fi, I hate you, so much. I never thought I'd find someone more annoying than Navi. I miss Midna so much. Maybe some mindblowing plot twist will change my mind, but it's still unbelievably annoying every time she interrupts me to say things like "Did you know you have to press A to herp the derp!?" THANKS, Fi. Really. because I couldn't have figured that out on my own...
Also, I'm still not a fan of the artstyle. I like the character designs and everything, but I don't like the cartoony/watercolor look of the game. I still think it's like they tried to please both the WW and TP crowd and I don't think it looks good at all. That said, it doesn't distract me too much from the game, because it does sort of fit the tone of the game. The music is fantastic so far. A few less-than-great tracks here and there, but most of it is top notch as far as I've played.
Other than that, I don't really have anything bad to say about the game. The motion plus aspect is fun, and not gimmicky as I had feared. So far, I think they succeeded in making the transition from outside world to dungeons pretty seamless. The fact that there really isn't an "overworld" is only a minor issue when the narrative really drives the game forward in this one. However, I hope it will be more open-ended as the game progresses.

I didn't get the crazy cat thing. Seemed pointless and random. Maybe there was some secret to it, but I didn't figure it out, just kept going after I threw it off a cliff.

I did the exact same thing, lol

Also, Fi, I REALLY hate you... your talent for stating the obvious is completely unmatched, thanks for treating me like a total idiot

I hate Fi, too. Not necessarily for those reasons, but she seems totally out of place. Why did Nintendo think it would make sense to give her the same personality of a talking computer and a voice to go with it? I don't get it.

Definitely not a fan of Fi, but so far I'd say that's my only complaint.

I guess if the biggest complaint about the game is that Fi is annoying, then that's not such a bad thing lol
Can't wait to get my copy when it comes out here on Thursday!
At least Super Mario 3D Land appears to have broken its street date so I can go and pick that up in the morning for something to do for a couple of days.

I think the Cat thing was just that one random encounter. Miyamoto likes cats.

WAT!

Hey check out my awesome new youtube channel shingi70 where I update weekly on the latest gaming and comic news form a level headed perspective.

Actually, if you go out at night later, you will see there are lots of evil cats, so it wasn't random. It just seemed weird because you see only one and assume it is Zelda's.

I've just entered the second dungeon (after tooling up with a pouch, and potions).

When you ask Fi for help, does she spoil it for you and tell you exactly what you're supposed to do? I ask because I was hopelessly stuck at two points before getting to the dungeon entrance but didn't want to be told exactly what to do.

I'm enjoying it so far - even though I play it in my small bedroom with little space to swing (crucially, I sit too close, due to the little space I have). Yet even then, unlike the Gamespot reviewer, I am (more or less) able to get some accuracy out of the controls. I like how easy it is to recalibrate too - particularly the pointer.

Eh, not really.

And I like Fi, she's like a computer if computers were mythical entities.

Ugh, anyone else having major trouble with the Wii Remote detecting a Skyward Strike? It took me like two minutes for it to react for me

Making a few strong vertical slices supposedly resets the accuracy, if that helps.

I haven't played enough to make a decision on whether I like Fi or not - that's assuming she gets some exposition, and she isn't just there to help you through the game (by reminding you how to dowse).

My favourite characters include the Junk Shop Owner, the Seer with the beautiful eyes, Goose the bully (I think that's his name), and the potion shop dad. There are some likeable characters, but my favourite of all is the Junk Shop Owner.

The first boss battle of the game is awe-inspiring. This is the kind of thing I want to see in a Zelda game.

I'm gonna try to avoid fighting Remlits if I can. They're basically innocent creatures being possessed by evil forces. D:

Groose and his gang are the best rivals Link has ever had. Dat theme song! <3

Also, I like Fi. And Midna. And the fairies. >:V

...So glad Fi tells you about all of the enemies, in Twilight Princess you knew nothing and in Wind Waker you had to take pictures of them and all that stuff. xD

Actually I think in Twilight Princess Midna would tell you about enemies if you target them while talking to her.

Finished it yesterday and loved most of it's aspects (except for the third act, which felt like it tried to drag the climax a bit further...) Ghirahim is a really cool character, one of my favorite villains with Zant. Fi... well she can get a bit annoying, but I really had the overall feeling she wasn't really there (especially since I left her hidden under the D-Pad for all the game... that helps not making a connection ^^'). Oh and some of the music are fantastic to listen to and they really give me some energy (like this one, which isn't really a spoiler, since you hear it in the first hour or so : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i8M7A6zI3U&feature=channe...

The thing I loved most was that it nearly was 75% puzzles (on the main quest anyway), being the riddle junkie that I am, I felt delighted ^^

By the Goddess I love this game !

@Red-acteur How on earth have you already finished it? I've had it since Friday and have been playing for quite a lengthy time, and I'm only in the second dungeon! How many dungeons are there?
