Fun fact, in Dodongos Cavern after the first lizalfos fight, you can jump behind the "lavafall" for a small room with a couple hearts

I can never get used to the newer fire temple chants. The 1.0 cartridge I grew up with the classic chants really set the environment and made it so unique.

The haunting sound of the Great Deku Tree theme really does make an incredible and distinctive impression

I think part of what makes Ocarina so memorable, in addition to the beautiful graphics (for the time), story, characters, etc. Is the music

So, the way the BotW is drained is actually because the wind from the storm spins the windmill that is used to pull water up from the well, so when the mill spins really fast it pulls all the water out.

"The Moblins here have the DUMBEST enemy AI in the entire series" LMAO This took me out!

Ive never appreciated how atmospheric the bosses first encounters are, in a lot of them you as the player have to do something first to trigger them, like looking up to ghoma's eye, getting grabbed by the creepy hands in the bottom of the well or passig by the tree before shadow Link. I really accentuates the combat that is about to come, unlike totk or TP where you just enter a room and a cutscene plays automatically

Finally somebody else that loves the Water Temple in this game. It was pretty much my favorite in the whole game.
