How do you feel about Zelda?

I don't have anything against FF8 as I have only played number 7. I fell in love with the game, played it hours upon hours. I believe that is one of the best RPGS I have ever played.

And I can't believe you guys are saying the Zelda games are too easy, expecially you Kagom. Final Fantasy isn't any friggin' harder. The FF games just force you to play for a much longer time by making you spend an extra five to ten hours running around gaining EXP. That's not difficult, that's annoying. The Zelda games just cut through all that unnecessary crap.

actually, FF does have a harder difficulty (in my opinion) than Zelda. They might force you, but you can't play on low levels. Gaining EXP is hard, and not annoying I still think Zelda sucks, as does my friend.

Just agree, zelda is easy on the point that there is absolutely NO way to screw it up and you can beat the game very quickly and get the bare minamum of hearts. If you go arond and do everything in zelda it can be quite the challenge, they are very fun games.

Final fantasy can be screwed up, if you do it too fast or skip things, on the other hand, if you pump all your characters you can hardly loose.
Its all about how you play the games.

the switching between Laguna's world and Squall's world really made me mad.... and i didnt like the story at all. Drawing also bugged me.

The story is the main part of the rpg, and i hated FF8's story, so thats why i hate it as a game.

i think FF 8 WAS THE BEST FF ever. It was my first and I value it a lot. But hey, you think it sux and that is your opinion. However, I dislike your opinion as you will probably dislike mine

Gaining EXP is hard, and not annoying

It's tough for you to run around in circles and execute the same commands over and over for hours on end? Damn. You have problems wiping properly too?

Gaining EXP is easy. It's annoying, tedious, and goes on for way too long, but it's easy as hell.

I consider the Zelda games to be just as easy as the Final Fantasy games. The only thing that's "hard" about the FF games is holding on to my sanity for five hours as I endlessly level up my characters.

Many of the RPGs I've played is like that... it forces you to waste time leveling by suddenly making a boss impossible to beat.

Zelda doesn't have that problem. As long as you know how to solve the puzzles, find out the weak point of the boss, locate certain items, then you're good to go.

And that's what I like better about the Zelda games. You spend more time playing the game and less time wandering around. I would consider both of equal difficulty, it's just that one relies on creative boss and puzzle design to be challenging, and the other relies on repetition and annoyance to be difficult. One is difficult because it tests your critical thinking skills, the other is difficult because it tests your patience.

I have only played Ocarina of Time(spellcheck), so my decision is based on it that game alone... I loved it

Many of the RPGs I've played *are* like that.

I like both the Zelda series and the Final Fantasy series. I don't care which is better.

Samus is catching up though.

Damn right she is. I've only played three Metroid games, but I already consider them to be equal to the Zelda games, in my opnion. And personally, I like Samus a lot better than Link. Link is cool, but Samus is an undisputable badass.
