Almost Instant Depression...

I just happened across the Water Jumping Puzzle and it was like instant depression... Don't see how Time helps... It's just timing and aiming and jumping right. A perfect puzzle for a console action game where you can do it over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

Now, what was so hard about that?

The water puzzle was pretty irritating for me too. The bit that really drove me crazy though was navigating through the floating islands. I really hated that. I tried mapping the thing by the relative postion of the islands, and gave up in frustration in about an hour. (I initially tried to get through it without using the walkthroughs on this board) The reason I was trying to do it solo, was that it had sounded initially like the xen islands encountered in the first Halflife FPS. I kinda dug that part of the game and thought that this was going to be similar. I was badly mistaken, as trying to jump from island to island was a big disaster. The islands are so similar, that it's really tough to tell where you are visually.

After I got back somewhere that looked familiar, I resorted to the walkthough.
