* [[Tropers/Jay Zilla 2830|Jay Zilla 2830]]: Exactly how did some of the temples in [[Oo T]] come to fruition?

** [[Raven Grave]]: Well, the Gorons just started mining, the Kokiri hired Edgar Allen Poe as their architect, the Zoras are actually ''really'' good at picking locks, the Gerudo...actually, as temples go, the Spirit Temple sort of makes sense...and the Sheikah are a bunch of sadistic bastards who probably got off on making people run through the stuff of nightmares. Or, we go with option B, where we all make ourselves believe that in fact, the temples were all [[A Wizard Did It|magically altered by Ganondorf]] in order to keep Link from awakening the sages. Personally, after the [[Scrappy Level|Water Temple]] and the [[Nightmare Fuel|Shadow Temple]], I'd much rather prefer to think that a [[Magnificent Bastard]] [[Big Bad]] was responsible for that madness rather than the respective races that they represent.

{{quote|'''Rauru''': His evil power radiated from the temples, and in seven short years, it it transformed Hyrule into a world of monsters.}}

** This troper got the impression that the temples were all previously used frequently for worship (or, in the case of the Shadow Temple, burial). It was not until Ganon came to power that they became so dangerous. Saria did sound shocked that the Forest Temple was full of monsters.

*** You mean [http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/197771-the-legend-of-zelda-ocarina-of-time/40542098 this link?]

** Fridge Logic once you've played Skyward Sword. All the temples and dungeons were left behind by the goddess Hylia in a Xanatos Gambit to train multiple incarnations of Link until Demise's(and by extension, Ganon's) evil was permanently extinguished.

*** The entire world is dessert? Niiiiiiiiiice.

*** Oops. Typo. My bad.... And now, I have to imagine some Gerudo women, drowning in Mouse au chocolate... well, THAT'S nice! XD

** Having monstrous skeleton rising up out of the ground at night hinders travel throughout your kingdom and thus inhibits trade and proper functioning. Purging them is simply a smart idea if you want your kingdom to function properly. Ganondorf may be evil, but he's a solid administrator.

*** But Hyrule Castle Town (the capital) is full of zombies! How is that good administration?

** Fine, by why does he have a map of his own stomach inside him?

*** Drawn by a previous person he swallowed, and left there for future swallowing victims.

* Why is ''everybody'' complaining about the [[Down the Drain|Water Temple]]? It still is the second best dungeon of the entire game (the Spirit Temple is the best, of course); Eiji Aonuma never needed to apologize for anything! And, while we're at it, why is ''noone'' complaining about the unbelievably boring, tedious and ''ugly'' Shadow Temple? Always hated it, still do.

** Oh, we must have all been mistaken. You say that it's the 2nd best dungeon in the game, and that has suddenly swayed everyone's opinions. /endsarcasm. Just because you like the Water Temple doesn't mean that everyone should. A lot of us just disliked it due to the tedious Iron Boot swapping (fixed in the remake, luckily) and water rising/lowering puzzles. If you like it, that's fine, but it seems that a majority of the players don't. And a lot of us really enjoyed the Shadow Temple as well. Opinions are opinions, and just because you disagree with someone's doesn't mean that they're wrong.

* Why the hell can't Adult Link use the boomerang?
