skyward sword could've been done with a standard controller

How does it work ? I see quite a few complains about Skyward Sword swimming controls.

 

Having finished Skyward Sword, while it's not perfect, I don't think something like this could've been done with standard controls. Here are a couple of reasons:

-The game requires your mastery of specific swinging. This is most apparent with the first boss, and other subsequent bosses onward, particularly the before final and final bosses.
-The select wheel is much quicker than in TP.
-Throwing bombs is now much quicker than any of the previous games, and thisaspect is played upon.
-The beetle actually feels great with motion plus.
-Swimming is actually smooth once you realize underwater walls do not have friction and that you do not need to precisely aim your angle of accent to exit the water.
-Nunchuck for shield works great in this game, and involuntary thrust movements from it can be a blessing or a detrement depending on how well you control your body movement.

The only part I would say it doesn't work is tightropes, which they designed so you have to sonstantly readjust Link's balance.

 

So éxit works, but èxit works too?

 

Have you any sixaxis experience to xompare your ideas to? It sounds like there are parallels with Warhawk and Lair. Warhawk worked very well IMO, whereas there have been a lot of complaints about Lair. I wonder if the swimming mechanic in skyward Sword is trying to capture a feel of swimming being inexact itself? I haven't played Skyward Sword so don't know, but I'm reminded of Lair in your complaints.

 

Come on, you need to give us some concrete highlights.

Did you guys play the game with the add-on or the built-in motion plus?

Most of the complaints seem to come from people using the add-on...I don't feel like buying a Wiimote plus just for one game

 

Fixed the spoiler tag, makes the thing clearer.

Zelda is a game I want to play when I get a Wii U, which will be sold with Wiimote+.
Didn't hear of that previously, that's interesting, could explain why some people complained while other found it great...
(Could also simply be different taste.)

 

i play using Wii Remote standard with motion plus attachment and the game seems work normally.
but the calibration seems quickly become bad if the remote cant see the IR.

also tried using the emulated motion plus. Basically it make Skyward sword playable with KB+M and its good too.

 

People, please use capital letters in the beginning of each sentence. My head hurts from reading this topic

 

Heh heh heh, I have long ignored grammar on the net. Train your brain up and adapt !

Someone do a "Skyward Sword" vs "Sorcery" concept comparison please. I have a hunch it should illustrate the differences between good and bad game + art design nicely.

[size=-2]Best if a Sony staff does the comparison honestly.[/size]
