The water temple is an allegory for adulthood :#marseyfreud:

The water temple wasn't difficult. It was an IQ test. :marseybigbrain:

iirc, people couldn't understand the entire main chamber was a puzzle with the water levels and there was one room you had to look up to see for thr last or second to last key.

I didn't like the water temple because it involved tedious swimming. Every water puzzle since has been the same way

I hated the iron boots even more than all the swimming. Just make it so link can swim down.

Later revisions made the boots at least easy to take on/off.

tbh looking up on an N64 controller is non-trivial

the water temple is so boring that i can't remember 95% of it despite beating the game like a dozen times that's what makes it difficult

I'm pretty sure it's just one of those things that everyone agrees to hate on just simply because enough people complained about it and became a form of “g*mer credentials”. The water temple felt just like any other.

I played the remastered version on ds or 3ds and there was nothing memorable about it, I don't even remember the water level that everyone groans about but maybe paying it as an adult vs as a kid made a difference. I don't remember the game being difficult at all.

Iirc the 3ds removes a lot of the tedium of the water temple by making the iron boots a c button item. Imagine every time you needed to equip or unequip the iron boots, you had to go into the menu, pick the normal/iron boots then exit

Plus wasn't there a bug on the n64 or something where the pause menu would take a bit to load?

The 3ds version gives away a pretty big hint about a secret room. I don't think N64 did that

I have nothing left to live for but revenge. Women must be punished for their crimes of rejecting such a magnificent gentleman as myself. All of those popular boys must be punished for enjoying heavenly lives and having s*x with all the girls while I have to suffer in lonely virginity.
