It’s always annoying when you remember that you have to do the quicksand crossing part, but the sheer amount of nostalgia makes up for it, and everything else in the game that I would consider subpar
But kinda weird when you think about it. Why did Nintendo, when doing the start of the Zelda series, choose to include more ancient cultures? They're never gonna be explored
Agree with you on Stone Tower Temple. It's my favorite of these types of theme, too. It helps ease the irritation of the many frustrations the temple itself brings.
+Wing Y (Bloodstained Fantasy) Some could argue that the best soundtrack is in the water area, some would say it's in the forest area. Truth is, they tend to be awesome all around :P
A reminder that we may end up as that as well; whether by our hand or from an event outside our control. I use Zelda as an argument against Fermi's Paradox. A civilization like Hyrule, could in theory, exist around another star - say Tau Ceti, and we wouldn't know they were there.
Had this song stuck in my head all day, it made me think of the underlying, indifferent, constant erosion that is time, and how all events around me, all egotistical struggles, petty grievances and social judgments that seemed so momentous at the time would fade to dust one day, a small part of a large cycle that it is unaware of. It makes me feel at peace to know that we are all equalized by time's unwavering march.
This is why i think time is the most fascinating thing to think about I mean, time makes everything possible and everything would be destroyed by it in a certain future The worst ennemy of information is time itself, someday every information will be forgotten and destroyed
I always think of the Aral Sea when I hear either this or the Sand Sea theme. The Aral Sea is a lot like a real-world version of Lanayru-- it's now a desert, but not 60 years ago it was a great sea, alive with fish and sailors. Abandoned fishing canneries and ghost ships, now homes to wild camels and tumbleweeds, still sit decaying and forgotten in the now-barren desert as unsettling reminders of what once was.
I believe Nintendo had in mind an epic soundtrack helps us cope with the barren wastelands we must travel through time again. Thus giving birth to ageless soundtracks for deserts was an essential part of keeping the audience focused on the goal and not fed up on the countless obstacles presented in their deserts and our very lengthy traveling of these places. The soundtracks for deserts have done us much help although we tend to overlook that.
Yep, and you can even hear both songs at the same time if you stay at the edge of a time shift zone, just between the present and the past. It's a curious mix.
You know what saddens me Is that in the areas where you activate the elemental nodes you see posters written a long time ago saying Please help rehydrate lanayru Plants are dying And well we know now that they didn’t succeed and the entire place became a desert
I think Lanayru Desert was one of, if not the best zone in Skyward sword. It was fun to explore and quest in, yet it still offered a challenge. One of the best memories I have of Lanayru Desert was me always yeeting myself off of the Sandship because my Wii remote froze or always flying the beetle thing into the dragon - I still do it to this day and it's just as fun now as it was back then.
That opinion would be more appreciated if you gave reasons. My favourite Zelda game is SS because of the plot, the amazing soundtrack, the Lanayru culture (that includes the desertification and time reflexion), the dungeons, etc. In TP the dungeons felt so lonely and dark with the ambience, non-melodic music; but in SS the music is much livelier and more pleasant to hear. I enjoy going to the Thunder Dragon's place and play some Boss Rush to get a challenge and see if I can improve my records.
This song really provides a melody that not only enhances the atmosphere of the desert but also resembles the emptiness of the province itself. I will admit fully that I found this part of Skyward Sword to be somewhat boring. However I still enjoyed the challenge of exploration roaming through Lanayru desert as well as the beautiful melody. My hat is once again off (as it always is) to the Japanese composers that are able to compose these songs and make them enhance the surroundings creating that sort of "magical" feel...
After watching Mark Brown's analysis on the dungeon design and hearing fans kind words, I really regretting not picking this game up on the Wii when I had one. All I ever heard was criticism, I should have tried it out for myself.
Math Helper I mean if you’re not a hardcore critic you won’t notice a lot of the flaws (motion controls are unavoidable though). One thing you do have to experience is how beautiful the story is. It’s really unique along with the soundtrack and visuals. If you can, you should experience it yourself.
@@nicoleellis8011 I actually got a wii again and am just about to start playing through it! Definitely gonna wait to purchase the switch version once its cheaper
I *love* all the music from Zelda games (especially Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword), but this one has been stuck in my head for a few days. I needed to hear it without having to play the game because I have to get work done...and if I turn SS on today, the only "work" I'll accomplish will be slaying Bokoblins and finding treasure. :)
Certainly, it would be interesting. Personally, I was disappointed when I found out that all I could explore in the past was Hylia's Temple and Realm. =( Wanted to see the Lanayru province in its glorious state. Oh well.
I think you accidentally posted a reply as a comment? That being said, I agree. I actually wish the entire sand sea could turn back in time so we could see the vast sea that used to be there. Totk had so much it could have potentially done, but wasted most of its budget on just the physics system, which, while incredible left everything else bare. The story especially seems rushed.
@@marielcarey4288 Ten years ago the reply system worked differently, so maybe RUclips did something weird with the replies when it transitioned to the current system.
Probably the same way that Skyloft hasn't fallen yet: Hyrule logic, the only logic that lets you have everything in the Zelda franchise with AND without unnaturally advanced technology and mystically mysterious magic
I both love and hate this area. Love it because it's massive, the music's great and it's very challenging. Hate it because whenever I hit a time stone, it made me realize how beautiful this area must have been all those years ago, the life it had, the port, the ocean... When the Captain said he was only there because of the stone, it really brought tears to my eyes. He knew he was 'dead' and only the stone's power gave him 'life', but he could never leave that small circle and see his family...
I remember when playing in the lanayru desert there was this temple place that looked like (and is probably) the spirit tower in loz spirit tracks Magical
@@crafted_myth2392 I haven’t played the game in so long, but I think it’s inside the temple in the desert, after you beat it you get pushed in a minecart thing and you end up in this tower with a train at the middle ^^ It might not be the same tower but it reminded me a lot of it :D
it amazes me that Nintendo is still so fresh and creative with this series. 25 years yet they can still take the same basic plot and make a brand new game that is as good as the ones before it
This game I have such nostalgia for. It was my first ever zelda game and I think it's my favorite. I remember when they had the commercials for it on tv I said, "Dad I need this!". When I got it for Christmas I couldn't play it because I didn't have the motion part for the remote. So I couldn't play it for awhile until my grandparents sent me 2 of them. I loved the game when I played it, I still do.
[we need to go deeper] everything is in a constant state of transition. this present is the past of all possible futures. the tides of time move in and out on scales that can scarcely be comprehended, leaving deserts for millennia before flooding them with life again as climates shift and continents reform. all we are is dust in the wind.
I remember my last playing session being nearly 5 hours long, and it was when i did the whole desert area. The atmosphere of the place just was simply realistic. The desert that stretches way beyond horizon, with nearly no life forms to be found, and you all alone wandering in the heat. God, my eyes hurt after that.
Every zelda game is a 10/10 in my eyes. I liked so much qualities of all the games, in this game the world through links eyes, this deserted beautiful world that's been hidden for thousands of years, Twilight princess with it's sense of impending despair and doom echoed through it's soundtrack and art style and story, Wind Waker in has it's mischievous and lovable characters and graphics, as well as one of the best plot twists in the zelda series, all Zelda games are different, but amazing too.
i dont see why people dislike your opinion so much,i agree with you,the Wii Motion was kind of a pain....it took me five times to beat the third fight of the imprisoned because the gameplay,but other than that,the game is really well written and specially the music,this game is by far a beautiful masterpiece.
its a less dark zelda game or at least less focused on the negative aspects and is more adventurous therefore the music fits. it is the same top quality they always make just a different theme and setting
@AlphaCrucis Faron is a nice region because of its greenness, but I am not that fond of the woods. Well, it's cool battling Bokoblins and other creatures, but I always got lost and... a bit bored. However, Eldin volcano put up a challenge. It lacks subregions, though. By that I mean: Faron had the Sealed Grounds, the woods and the deep woods; and Lanayru had got the desert, the mine, the gorge and the fantastic sand sea. I'm in the sand sea now in Hero Mode, and I'm going to re-enjoy it so much!
in my opinion this is my favorite world because of just how cool the time stones are, its also the most sad one to me, if you check some of the papers on the wall in the places to unlock the temple, it will say, "plants drying up, help keep lanayru green" meaning they new the place was becoming a desert, i wish there was a way to heal the place in the present, not just going to the past, maybe if nintendo makes a legend of zelda skyward sword 2 they could add that feature.
I doubt they would make it - Nintendo Zelda was always about vicious cycles that repeat themselves over and over again.. :/ The realization of the timeline somehow is that you cant stop evil, it will always return and you need to always fight for peace no matter what. Some kind of ying yang stuff I guess. And I guess this is applicable to the real world as well, we humans will always have that weird personality trait that tells us to do evil and harm when it suits us. The tragedy of this fact gets represented in these games very well, I think.
Faron is my favorite region, then Lanayru, although I was totally expecting a water area when I first read that Lanayru would be the next area. What a surprise it was to find a desert. Then, it made sense by the fifth dungeon.
Fave dragon is Eldin, although he doesn't seem to do much other than give you a song. Your right about the great ambiance of this track it completely fits.
@ACMilanW960i Fire Sanctuary had some cool features, but Earth Temple was great fun (though short; I would have liked it to be much longer). Nothing to do with Skyview, I don't like it as much as the other dungeons. But if I have to choose between Ancient Cistern and Skyview, I'd sure choose the latter. My most hated dungeon was exactly Koloktos's. I couldn't stand the music. Lanayru had the best dungeons IMO, with the mining facility being friggin' brilliant. The Sandship was very charming. =)
I totally agree. The only downside of it was that you had to reset it for every menu you opened unless you had it pointed at the screen all the time. But at some points, like with flying or diving, I would have liked an option to just have you control link with the analog stick.
Both titles have linear dungeons. The exceptions would be Snowpeak Ruins and Lakebed Temple in TP and the Sandship and Sky Keep in SS. Easiness, however, is subjective. It still stands that the enemies don't do as much damage in TP, which is a part of my preference.
It’s obvious that somebody thinks that I’m pretty stupid on how music is made. Lmaooooo. I was only stating how this type of music helps me to focus a lot better because it’s instrumental instead of hearing singing. 🤔
Video game music is composed the exact same way as any other type of music. The only reason some orchestrated pieces arent praised enough is because they dont have such a pretentious following of hipsters.
@Posby95 my favorite area is eldin volcano because overall it was great. Fighting the lizalfos was cool and so was the music. I didnt like lanayru mining facility for some reason but i thought the sandship was one of the best dungeon.
Zelda and Nintendo games are always about the gameplay and the beautiful atmosphere,something every nintendo player knows about,wind waker had the same negative response at first ,but then Miyamoto said "the game is fun ,please don't judge it before trying it" ,and he was right,it was an amazing experience,im not trying to be judgmental here,but i honestly dont think you played it because you wanna play em all,but cuz deep inside,you knew it could turn out good,i could be wrong tho . Peace ^^
Good good,you seem llike a smart person :) ,i know many people who couldnt finish the game. anyways i love it too and gotta say ,it saved me from depression ,few games can do that ,zelda and mario are my best series EVA! ^^ Peace and always Smile :D
I prefer SS to TP as well, for similar reasons, however I felt the dungeons got weaker towards the end of SS. I was also disappointed there was no final dungeon before Demise. An epic final level is a MUST before fighting the last boss!! That is one area TP was better than SS - it had a GREAT final level. I wasn't that into the WiI remote so I'm not sure that I prefer SS to Ocarina of Time or Wind Waker, but hey I love all the Zelda games. SS had the best individual scenes and music.
+Kyanna Frazer Yep. It's a great game to play. Give it another shot and, if you still are stuck, you can always look a guide up for that specific part.
Although, considering this is a fandom, which can sometimes get over reactive sometimes (happens to all fandoms), it would probably be better to say "I preferred Tp over SS". You're opinion is fine, that's just a recommendation of wording.
I feel that TP and SS arn't comparable games, because they're both designed so differently. You could complain about the combats and movements and dungeons, but they're from two different levels of control-- and that may be what people set they're preferance on, but you can't compare it.
I'm not sure if the price has gone down, but you do need wii motion plus to play this game. So I guess you'll have to save a bit of your money for a while. If the limited edition of the game still existed, you could get the golden Wii Remote Plus and solve the problem...
I prefer Skyward Sword over Twilight Princess because TP was way too easy, and in Skyward Sword, enemies actually do damage (taking away a heart or more, not that 1/4 or 1/2 a heart crap; double on hero mode). Also, I enjoyed the concentration of the temples. In TP, they used large and expansive temples, whereas in SS, the temples were small and concentrated but took just as long. It's just a personal preference really. The music was good in both games.
Lanayru Desert was easily the best area in Skyward Sword.
1000%
💯
It’s always annoying when you remember that you have to do the quicksand crossing part, but the sheer amount of nostalgia makes up for it, and everything else in the game that I would consider subpar
so much to do too, the hylian shield, mining facility, sandship, time stones, good puzzles
yeah I agree
I love the Zelda songs that have an "ancient" feeling to them, like lanayru desert, the spirit temple, and my favorite is Stone Tower Temple
But kinda weird when you think about it. Why did Nintendo, when doing the start of the Zelda series, choose to include more ancient cultures? They're never gonna be explored
That's something theorists do like zeltic for example
Agree with you on Stone Tower Temple. It's my favorite of these types of theme, too. It helps ease the irritation of the many frustrations the temple itself brings.
Is it just me, or does the desert area in Zelda games always have an epic soundtrack?
Yeah, there always the best.

I totally agree.
The only downside of it was that you had to reset it for every menu you opened unless you had it pointed at the screen all the time. But at some points, like with flying or diving, I would have liked an option to just have you control link with the analog stick.
Omg this dessert was so hard to pass ;_;
Playing this on a sweltering hot night
oooh...hero mode is HARD! good luck, and hope you clear the dungeon!
0:11 Melee?
I respect that a lot. I'm thumbing you up.
Both titles have linear dungeons. The exceptions would be Snowpeak Ruins and Lakebed Temple in TP and the Sandship and Sky Keep in SS. Easiness, however, is subjective. It still stands that the enemies don't do as much damage in TP, which is a part of my preference.
I like to sleep with this in the background.
lmfaoo I do it too
It’s obvious that somebody thinks that I’m pretty stupid on how music is made. Lmaooooo. I was only stating how this type of music helps me to focus a lot better because it’s instrumental instead of hearing singing. 🤔
Video game music is composed the exact same way as any other type of music. The only reason some orchestrated pieces arent praised enough is because they dont have such a pretentious following of hipsters.
Better than most of the stuff out there.
@@puppiesarepower3682 I agree with that so much.
@Posby95 my favorite area is eldin volcano because overall it was great. Fighting the lizalfos was cool and so was the music. I didnt like lanayru mining facility for some reason but i thought the sandship was one of the best dungeon.
Zelda and Nintendo games are always about the gameplay and the beautiful atmosphere,something every nintendo player knows about,wind waker had the same negative response at first ,but then Miyamoto said "the game is fun ,please don't judge it before trying it" ,and he was right,it was an amazing experience,im not trying to be judgmental here,but i honestly dont think you played it because you wanna play em all,but cuz deep inside,you knew it could turn out good,i could be wrong tho .
Peace ^^
I want to play this music while I visit ancient places like Puma Punku (which is a dream of mine) Ive never played this game but I feel like I should
Good good,you seem llike a smart person :) ,i know many people who couldnt finish the game. anyways i love it too and gotta say ,it saved me from depression ,few games can do that ,zelda and mario are my best series EVA! ^^
Peace and always Smile :D
This gives me a lot of like Rare games vibe, Banjo Kazooie, DK64 evem the original DKC trilogy
I prefer SS to TP as well, for similar reasons, however I felt the dungeons got weaker towards the end of SS. I was also disappointed there was no final dungeon before Demise. An epic final level is a MUST before fighting the last boss!! That is one area TP was better than SS - it had a GREAT final level. I wasn't that into the WiI remote so I'm not sure that I prefer SS to Ocarina of Time or Wind Waker, but hey I love all the Zelda games. SS had the best individual scenes and music.
im really hoping they implement the motion controls in the new zelda
It just saddens me these areas hadn't night time.
dis is nice :)
Anyone else think this sounds like a remixed version of the spirit temple in some parts?
Egypt Theme
@Internet Asshole I hope you're trolling
reminds me of how frustrated i got on this part. i never even finished it! :( pending if i should attempt again
+Kyanna Frazer Yep. It's a great game to play. Give it another shot and, if you still are stuck, you can always look a guide up for that specific part.
+Kyanna Frazer If you need a good guide, Zelda Dungeon has a website for walkthroughs and they're even here on youtube. You're welcome. :D
+Kyanna Frazer Really? cmon, have some faith and just think like Link :p
Reminds me of Age of Empires.

You cant give in.....YOU CANT GIVE IN!!!! >:O
Although, considering this is a fandom, which can sometimes get over reactive sometimes (happens to all fandoms), it would probably be better to say "I preferred Tp over SS". You're opinion is fine, that's just a recommendation of wording.
I feel that TP and SS arn't comparable games, because they're both designed so differently. You could complain about the combats and movements and dungeons, but they're from two different levels of control-- and that may be what people set they're preferance on, but you can't compare it.
I'm not sure if the price has gone down, but you do need wii motion plus to play this game. So I guess you'll have to save a bit of your money for a while. If the limited edition of the game still existed, you could get the golden Wii Remote Plus and solve the problem...
I sleep to this shit
I prefer Skyward Sword over Twilight Princess because TP was way too easy, and in Skyward Sword, enemies actually do damage (taking away a heart or more, not that 1/4 or 1/2 a heart crap; double on hero mode). Also, I enjoyed the concentration of the temples. In TP, they used large and expansive temples, whereas in SS, the temples were small and concentrated but took just as long. It's just a personal preference really. The music was good in both games.
really? because the motion plus combat was well designed, and it lead to some really creative boss battles.
I actually prefer Majoras mask just for the atmosphere, but SS is a close 2nd. It's just a blast!
Both are nice games, TP was a little more original, this SS thing was original too, but i feel like i was watching an anime or something xD
aka The Bus Stop theme
I play that game
This song and all the other presents songs sound so dead in a good way
Lanayru Desert (Present) is nice, but what about an alternate name? I came up with Judgement of Time. Any other suggestions?
I have a name to the past version of Lanayru Desert, tough, Lanayru Greens.
I found it to be really awkward at times when I meant to do one thing and Link did something else.
Might just me being motion deaf though.
