I agree you could call it a nit pick but it is just one of the issues I have with the game. I thought the story was duller than other Zelda games. And I think item progression usage is stronger in other games. Getting the rock feather in LA felt good and combining it with the Pegasus boots felt great.

Getting a hammer in LTTP to get past one tile doesn't feel great
And the ice rods only purpose being the boss fight isn't good. No reason you can't have any Ice Rod puzzles.

It would have been like if the Ice arrows were necessary to beat bongo bongo in OoT and useless everywhere else (like they are now).

Now granted I played this in 2008~ and my wife played it in 2020. It doesn't match up to the newer Zelda games and it shouldn't because Zelda has evolved leaps and bounds since then.
