I got Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii) for my birthday. That's good, because I wanted it, but it's already done things to annoy me, things which I only really forgive because it's Zelda and I know I have lots of good stuff to come.
I'm about an hour in and I'm yet to even look at a sword. Things I have done: fishing, throwing a hawk at things, riding around on a horse herding goats, catching goats with my bare hands, trying to lure a cat, walking around the town talking to people. I expected some of the latter, but all of the things in that list were either things I had to do or was doing because I wasn't sure what I was supposed to be doing next. Now everyone knows that the game hasn't even really started yet, and what's more, even when it starts this is a Zelda game - so it will only really get going after a good few more hours in. Okay, but is it really so much to ask to have the game start, well, straight away?
On the back of the box it says something like 'The biggest Zelda adventure of all time!' Nowadays, that doesn't particularly excite me. Was anyone seriously thinking - 'Wow, I really love the Zelda games, but I wish they were bigger!'? I'm guessing not.
Don't get me wrong, I'm really looking forward to the point where it gets into the swing of things but I can't help feeling that I should have got the game a few days before my birthday, so that by the time the big day arrives I'd be past all the introductory fluff.
