Skyward Sword had a unique distance rendering system. Farther objects become soft round pixilations, giving a feeling of Impressionism. The art style choice fits that rendering system. They actually worked on the quality of it in the HD version. A lot of people never noticed the Impressionism art style, but that's what gave Skyword Sword it's unique feel and soft, chill vibes.

Motion controls feel cooler, button controls feel more comfortable

I found that the orientation of the controller itself was the most important part. Stuff like flying reacts extremely well with very minor movements. Large movements completely throw it off

I hear people say they didn't like the world below the clouds because it was too linear. But I remember the idea was to take some of the parts people love about dungeons and bring it to the over world. Think about the volcano area you had to figure out how to make your way a certain location. It wasn't a direct path. You had find those mitts to dig around in the ground. Or fight a mini boss to get past a bridge over the lava. The time stones in the desert area were a lot like dungeon puzzles.

I ended up giving the motion controls a try and was surprised by how intuitive they are and how much I would miss out if I just played with the buttons.

Gotta be honest, even despite needing to reset sometimes, I feel like you weren’t using the motion very good in your demonstrations. I’m not that surprised it wasn’t working. The motion controls need to be reset more because of course it doesn’t have a sensor, but work more accurate and fast when it’s centered correctly. Aim your sword slowly and then swing. Don’t make big crazy movements when flying or swimming. Move slowly back and forth on tightropes (you can run on them btw). And press reset whenever you’re about to use motion controls. Just get used to pressing it preemptively, especially if you’ve changed your position. You don’t even have to point at the screen, recenter button will recenter to whatever your current position is so you can still be pretty comfortable in whatever spot you’re in. Seriously, speed runners are still playing the game the exact same way they did on Wii with no noticeable difference or drop in quality with the controls, other than pressing recenter sometimes. Which is easier than pressing Z target for every fight. Still, I’m glad you were able to enjoy it with buttons. That’s why it’s great to have the option.

Just had my first play through a few weeks ago. The first few hours were brutal for me. Between the constant stops in action for dialogue and learning the controls I had to push myself to keep playing. By the end of the game it’s one of my favorites in the series.

Lol I had to look up that song from Rebecca black cause I couldn't remember it 🤣 the moment I hit play I immediately remembered lol but then realized you were playing the instrumental version in the background during that whole section of the video lol. Love watching your videos Wood! Cheers!

I actually didn’t have a hard time with motion control tbh to me it felt better and felt better then the Wii version but I’m happy the button layout is an option for everyone to enjoy the game

I do not resent the fact that the option exists for those who are bad at motion controls. What bugs me is the people who are bad at them not acknowledging that they are bad at them.

I was on the stream when you were trying to fly with motion controls, lying on my back under my desk doing cable management while cracking up. Good times.

I remember doing the loftwing challenge on Wii. It must have looked very similar to woods attempt. I actually got so frustrated I ripped the game out of the console, and threw it at the wall as hard as could like a frisbee. After that the game actually worked just fine miraculously. Thankfully the wall was far away!! 🤣But I never went back to it. Now, with button controls I am planning on finally finishing the game.

I have not tried the motion controls, but haven't had any issue with using the right stick at all. I've actually been surprised how much I've liked the game and the controls after what I've read about them.

The link impersonation was spot on!! 🤣👌🏻 Also, Groose DEFINITELY always reminded me of Biff as well. Funny I’m obviously not the only one. 👍🏻

This is my favorite zelda game no matter how bad the motion control were it was the most fun I had in a zelda game or any game and I miss that feeling.

"Gets more confused than a chameleon in a bag of skittles" Best metaphor I have heard all day

Its nice when you can watch a review about gameplay and quality of life stuff, doesnt hurt that theres comedy in there too. I laugh so much and get a good review, favorite channel.

lol that intro was great. I'm new to Zelda games (played BOTW as my first zelda game late 2020) and thoroughly enjoying playing skyward sword (exclusively w/ button controls lol)

imo the motion controls were amazing i havent had a problem with them in over 40 hours of gameplay

Great review and glad you enjoyed the game! I kept playing with the motion controls for a few hours in the game to get better at them, and I did, so I’m used to them, they are easy, and enjoyed the moments of swords fighting and small moments like pulling the master sword out of the ground and jumping in the air to slam down my blade on an enemy. I had to reset the calibration with the tap of the button every once in a while, but I got used to doing it like instinct.

That link noises made me subscribe to your channel instantly 😂😂😂

Wood you really go all out for your videos! Don’t worry we all love you for it ❤️

Fun fact, you dont have to point at the screen then press Y to calibrate you can do it pointing anywhere Its really useful when you just want to get into a more comfortable position, to just press Y resting your hand and you can just use small rotations to make the slashes

Here after a few months to say I finally got around to playing the skyward sword port I'm part of the minority that played 99% of it with motion controls and totally enjoyed it! 😃

The beginning is so funny seeing him as link in GameStop

You can change your button mapping in the Switch settings so that L is something like the stick press. I have a whole button map saved for KZread because I don't like needing to use two joy cons just to watch some videos

Going back and playing Skyward Sword you notice all the little gameplay mechanics brought over into Breath of the Wild, like the stamina gage, collecting items to use in item upgrading, multiple different shields and swords, using motion controls to solve puzzles, and sail cloth that would become a paraglider.

When I played the bird race thingy I didn't read the tutorial all the way through, so I didn't know that you could shake the joy-con to flap, so I did the entire race without flapping.

I've said for awhile that a sensor bar to help coordinate the gyro would be really nice. Not sure how well that would work together, but I know they would need to upgrade the joycons for it to be compatible with the sensor bar. It seems like both gyro and senior bar working together would work better, but maybe I'm an idiot.

I adore the nod to Bob Ross definitely cracked me up, especially since he painted with oils 😂

It is important to point out - if the motion control worked really well, like, perfect every time, skyward sword would be one of the best Zelda games. If the switch had an optional control set up, that was like 500% more accurate than the Wii, it would be amazing

watching you try to play it w the motion controls was hilarious lol i couldn't stop laughing, it sounds like it would've worked better for you with voice controls!!!

I use motion controls although it is very frustrating when you're flying. The free camera movement and a separate attacking control does it for me.

Wood trying to work motion controls on the flying section: = Wanda Maximoff when she first got her powers

I had no real problems with the motion control, but I can get why you didn’t like it. Great review though 😊

@@kennycarter5682 I respect the decision and his opinion, I only really have a problem with the fact that he didn't even try to learn the controls, but more so expected them to conform to what he wants to do/what he thinks he's doing with his motions. Normally I wouldn't care, but he also then presents it as if the motion controls are a mess objectively, when in reality the issue lied with him either not being precise enough or not learning how recentering worked. Regardless though, I can understand why he was frustrated and switched, I just don't particularly like how he raked the motion controls over the coals despite never actually trying to learn and adapt to them.

The art style was supposed to look like a painting :) And this is my favorite Zelda after Breath of the Wild. I didn’t have any problems with the motion controls. I recenter often though cuz there’s no bar. I really don’t like the buttons. Maybe I just have to use them more but it’s super difficult for me and took me longer to do simple things. I also play like how I did on the Wii and press the button the recenter the camera often. I used my GameStop points to only pay $40 for this game 😎 I didn’t want to pay $60 for a remaster.

For those of you who dont know the wii censor bar is just an ir light all the prossesing for the motion was done in remote you can use any ir light as a censor. You can even use a pair of candles as they produce some ir light

Sail Cloth started with Deku Leaf in WW btw
