There a playclock aye? How long did it take ya?
I've just gotten into Lorule.

Dark world theme is BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER~<3

If there's a clock, I don't see it... -_-

But after some quick mathitude,
I'd say it took me around 18-20 hours. (All Hearts and Maiamai.)
I pretty much only stopped playing to sleep after I got it yesterday.

And yes it is!
I was also digging the little Flute Boy's rendition of it. ^_^

well dayum.
I wish I could pull it off that fast.

normally I only beat just the story in that amount of time the first playthrough XD

So do you get permanent versions of the items or you only use the rentals for the larger majority?

I don't think I've EVER beat a new Zelda game that quickly before.
I was prolly just really in the groove of things.

You should be able to start buying them for keeps after you save What's-is-face-the-Sage-that-thought-he-was-hot-stuff-and-got-Yuga'd-in-the-Eastern-Palace.
(Don't remember his name, but that should be close enough.)
How long that takes depends entirely on which dungeons you do first though.

Ah...It's pretty much once you get to Lorule the merchant lets ya buy em.

And there you go.
I couldn't remember if it was immediately after entering Lorule or after you get his Sand Rod back.
Looks like it was the former. ^.^

Aye

and ye say there's a hero mode?
The same old "no more hearts and double damage" routine?
Seems like this will be a Zelda I'll be enjoying for the next few months, if not years.

Weird enough, there ARE hearts to pick up.
Kinda freaked me out when I saw one float out of a piece of grass.

But the enemies deal quadruple damage instead of double,
so I'm not complaining.
So far I'd say it's a good deal tougher than WW HD's, if that helps you get a feel for it. (Never played SS's Hero Mode.)

SS is the same as the one in WW HD
double damage, no hearts.

Well...here's to oping my mad cucco dodging skillz pay off for that.
Oh and did ya notice the Cucco dodging minigame? :p

I loved that minigame!

Crazy chicken lady and her crazy Cucoo Danmaku. ^.^
Make sure to challenge every level. (Except Unlimited. It's fun, but unnecessary.)
