random thought: if you had to pick a favorite dungeon from the entire zelda series, which one would you pick?
-F
@Felthry This may be recency bias, but Zelda 2: Great Palace.
Z2 is not my favorite game in the series, and other dungeons have my favorite mechanics and gimmicks in the series (TP Arbiter's Grounds is also high on my list, as is LA Eagle's Tower), but providing a sprawling, non-linear dungeon at the end of that adventure with one of the most iconic non-Ganon fights in the series had a significant impact on me (both when I first played it and more recently).
It also remixes very well in rando.
@Felthry
That's a really good question. In my opinion, it needs to be from one of the 3D titles because they do a better job of scene-setting and feeling thematic and epic in the ways a dungeon ought to. Offhand I think Arbiter's Grounds from Twilight Princess might be my favorite (cool boss, cool item, moody theming), but this feels like a question I want to do a deeper dive on.
