Ocarina of Time video: Water Temple FAP

Here we go%26hellip; the dreaded Water Temple, the bane of so many existences the world over. Watch in horror as I trudge through its murky depths, cussing and complaining while Carolyn directs with a handy printed FAQ. Henry, Charlie and Chris stop by too, but I barely notice from deep inside my rage cloud. Seriously. I%26rsquo;m genuinely upset by the end of this thing.

At the very least, the odd lag problem that plagued the Fire and Forest temples is gone%26hellip; too bad I still take like 10 minutes to kill the damn boss, who%26rsquo;s far more annoying than I remembered. I know some of you don%26rsquo;t find this temple to be as horrific as the internet has made it out to be, but after playing for the first time in nearly 13 years, I hate it more than ever. Good thing the 3DS version hastaken steps to make it a little less miserable, eh?

Next up: the Shadow Temple, which features some kind of nifty hover-boots
