Ah ok, I see your point, and I can't reasonably argue against it. I think that's just not something I was looking for in the overworld, but I can see how that would have improved it. Even having some little secrets, like finding a hermit with a witty line of dialogue somewhere or something, would have been cool.

That said, I greatly enjoy the game's overworld, but that's probably for different reasons. I rarely use quick travel in videogames because I like to feel like I'm playing in a huge world that's connected.

Twilight Princess largely let's me do just that, without too much stuff to distract me, but enough to spend some time spelunking if I feel up for it. That's just me though, and I understand where you're coming from.

Out of interest, what would you say is a good Zelda overworld?

Exactly, and this is something I hope Zelda Wii U improves on. Give us more diverse sidequests.

Something like what Zelda Wii U is supposedly going to accomplish, but with more sidequests besides the average fetch quests, and your grinding quests (looking for hearts, rupees, and stuff)

Like what, for example? I enjoy the silly collection quests, but I'm intrigued by this idea.

Like actually have people you can talk to in the overworld, that could easily make it interesting.

Make some type of new sidequest besides heart collecting. It can still be a fetch quests in ways but just executed differently. That's what I mean.
