I've noticed that I'm always a little bit different when it comes to the temples in OoT. I like the one the most that everyone else hates. The Fire Temple.
Not true Josh, I really enjoyed the Fire Temple too, i don't get the point why people are hating this one. Well it's not my favorite vote but i really liked the Fire Temple. I remember i was always falling down in the room where the Megaton Hammer is placed, so i have to start over like 3/6 times. I have also a weak spot for fire places like this. I have to say i got stuck in OoT; Master quest's Fire Temple. Fire Temple should be my favorite vote out of those temples.
Alright i gonna start with the Forest Temple. This one is really my last favorite, but that doesn't mean i hate this dungeon. I didn't like the way it was and the whole poe idea was disappointing. I don't like forest based dungeons in general, the element of the dungeon has a role in my favorites, but the Forest Temple was challenging, in the beginning i got stuck in this one for a simple Small Key, the 3 skeletons gave me also a big challenge and needed like 3 fairies in a bottle to beat them. And that for the simple Bow and Arrows. I loved the last pink poe though and the green one with the puzzle. I never saw there was a fake piece in it and make a real mess with this puzzle. As for the purple one the battle was epic, but it didn't fool me with it's traitorous rotation.
The boss Phantom Ganon was of the best bosses, even i didn't like the whole Temple. Reflection his Shadow Balls was enjoyable except if he's on the lower floor.
The second Temple, the Fire Temple as i said is my second favorite. I like the master quest version ways more than the original. Fire based things are also on my top favorite but saving the Goron's was a nice job, and the way they talked about Volvagia is gonna eat them. The room with the rolling stone blocks was the most annoying though, falling down was really fun, and starting over again. It gives me more time to spend and it always happened to me, i like if they are deep gates into a Dungeon.
The boss from the Fire Temple was my favorite out of them all, the Dragon Volvagia. In the beginning i didn't know somethin about hanging on the edge se Volvagia can't hurt you. I have a weak spot for Dragons and the battle against it was just fun, but i died a lot of times what gives me a real challenging boss. Alright now it's a piece of cake for me.
Water Temple, yeah what can i say about this? I got stuck for a real long time and even gave up the whole game. Water Temple is my fourth Temple, i never knew about the place in the center of the temple, the pilar looking structure. And that was not only that, i also didn't see the block were you have to use the Spng of Time, just call it Time block then. For the key i searched for days, week even month's without result. I never used a walkthrough or any help from other, but after a long time i figured every out, and i could only laugh about it now. Water Temple was the most challenging, but changing your boots every time was really annoying, and just end up as also a annoying Dungeon.
The boss here was nothing, not actually something special or challenging. I don't know it's name anymore but it did return in Twilight Princess, or it only looks a like.
Now for my favorite out of them all! The Shadow Temple. If there is a dungeon i would like, is it the darker dungeons. The torture stuff was just amazing and scared me really out in the past. Overall this Temple was pretty challenging, and you have to do the Bottom of The Well first for the Lense of Truth. I remember i was looking for the Hover Boots outside of this Dungeon, i didn't know about the place in the corner. It's also the first dungeon i was with blood inside it, same for the well. I gave a real scary atmosphere and i like this kind of dungeons. The design and the difficuly of it, even Bongo Bongo, my second favorite boss was pretty challenging. he moves his hands to fast and shooting is his eye was the biggest trouble i had, like Volvagia he's now a piece of cake.
The last Temple is the Spirit Temple on the 3th place. It has my favorite sound track and gives it a real egyptian atmosphere, better say a tomb like place like you see in the movies as Indiana Jones. The Master Quest version was ways better than the original, like the Water Temple i got stuck reall fast in the middle biggest room of the Temple. I never knew about Din's Fire below the door. The iron Knuckles has also their first appearance, and they are also my favorite enemy. Back in time i hated they because they killed me soon as possible, they are dealing a lot of damage like i've seen with Volvagia's breath/rocks. I like the way to do the first part with child Link and the second with Adult Link.
The Boss, Twinrove or better know as the sorceress sisters was a totally amazing battle. Reflecting their attacks was really fun to do, it was only annoying if they are not on the screen anymore. I loved the ''conflict'' between them at last.
As for in the Ganon's Castle the Fire room was amazing, especially in Master Quest.
To say it all shortly for now in, my vote is Shadow Temple;
1. Shadow
2. Fire
3. Spirit
4. Water
5. Forest
