Alright I've been wondering about this for a while now. It seems like everytime someone discusses bad sequels or just the Zelda series in general, people always start bashing Zelda 2 as a bad follow-up to the original Zelda. To tell you the truth, I like the second Zelda way more than the first one. I even go back and beat it every now and then. I've played through the first Zelda a bit, but I haven't ever completed it because I just lose interest in it.
It's not like the second Zelda was exactly the same as the first one, but it was however a very solid game IMO. So of course my question is, why do people consider Zelda 2 to be a bad sequel? :/
