You know it's bad when a small change like having shrines drop actual heart pieces and stamina vessel pieces instead of just orbs would massively improve the need to find shrines and urge exploration since you would never know what you would get until you beat it instead of having a piece of currency you can just trade for whatever.

Also why the fuck didn't anyone over at nintendo thought about adding the pegasus boots to the games? Faster run speed or less stamina consumption while running, it was right there!!! They could have done more and made it an ability like in previous games, but even the most barebone boring ability like the others would have been fine.
