I can’t explain why, but I’m a huge lover for the Fire Sanctuary. I think it’s probably the puzzles and the fact that you fight 4 mini bosses which is awesome!

Every single one of these is so much better than any one of the temples in TOTK

@antoinedenis3081 1 year ago

The Earth temple is not incorrectly named. If anything, it's the discrepancy between its name and Skyview Temple's name that is the problem as the temples are the places where lie the springs that awaken Hylia within Zelda : a goddess and a princess descending from the SKY to EARTH. These two dungeons are a set that centers around earth and sky but the naming convention lost that a little

My fav is sand ship

A couple months ago, I started replaying all the mainline Zelda games, partly because of this series. While my top 5 favorite dungeons may be kinda predictable...

1 - Sandship (GOAT)
2 - Stone Tower Temple
3 - Shadow Temple
4 - Snowpeak Ruins
5 - Ancient Cistern

I'm pretty glad that you got me to replay these games I experienced once years and years ago.

8:14 The most egregious "these dungeons should swap names" example in the entire series will always been Wind Waker's Earth and Wind Temples

SS's first dungeon is such an odd one, agree with its placement. I can't explain why, but it always feels much longer and slower than it actually is to me, even though I think it's got good elements!

@joshuaweston6531 6 months ago

People really slept on Skyward Sword initially. I'm glad it's gotten more exposure thanks to the HD release on the Switch. Also, Sandship, Ancient Cistern and Lanayru Mining Facility are among some of the very best dungeons in the series...

The desert area for me love seeing how it was in the past to the future

@TheBrixHub 1 year ago (edited)

I always felt like The Earth Temple and Fire Sanctuary's names should have been switched, especially given how much digging and tunnels were involved in the Fire Sanctuary :)

@gabrielox5110 1 year ago

Well, there it goes the las videos about bosses and dungeons in zelda. And now what? Ranking the items in every zelda game maybe?

@asb6420 1 year ago (edited)

You should definitely make a video called ranking every Zelda boss fight

@nooodlelegs 1 year ago

Gotta say it’s been awesome watching through this series! I can’t wait to see what the future holds for this channel

@ThePoutingPrince 1 year ago (edited)

God I loved the Beetle 🪲 probably my favorite item everrrrr. Except for the Harp of Ages in Oracle of Ages

Sand Ship would be 10/10 if it weren’t for the final boss. What in the Monster Inc

@leosmith-moores1213 1 year ago

You should do a Zelda game ranking

@Carra_Mell0 1 year ago

Its a bit poetic that the game to end this series is the game that came first in the timeline.

@adekaiwamisou 1 year ago

We all knew what number 1 would be.
I believe we are all content with it.

@Historicutuber 1 year ago

Yeah the Ancient Cistern is one of the best dungeons in the series!

@MichaelTaylor-qp2xf 1 year ago

The Ancient Cistern is my favorite dungeon and by a wide margin my favorite part of Skyward Sword. Once you got to Fire Sanctuary at 4, I just wondered whether the Sandship or Mining Facility would be number 2.

@LeiftheForestGnome 1 year ago

🛡Spoiler Shield for the number 1 pick🛡

IMO, not only is Ancient Cistern the best dungeon in Skyward Sword but it also receives the honour of being one of the few water themed dungeons in the Zelda series that is actually good. OoT Water Temple and MM Great Bay Temple are alright, but only once you have played through them a few times and know the route. Ancient Cistern on the other hand is fun both for first time playthroughs and repeat playthroughs
