Am I the only goofball playing Skyward Sword?

[seaglass]

I have been waiting a year for this game and finally got it the day after Thanksgiving. Wow, life has changed - I used to be able to play Zelda games for hours on end and now I might squeeze in an hour a night before doing some reading and going to bed. :-)

I'm guessing this is an old school game and real gamers don't play this kind of game anymore? Just interested to see if anyone else is playing and what they think.

I am still in the woods and in/near the first dungeon. I already had to use a cheat because I couldn't figure out how to defeat the Octorok, it kept breaking my weak ass wooden shield. :-)
