I don't know if this is the right community for this, so I am sorry if it shouldn't go here. I am currently playing through a link to the past for the first time and have noticed a steep increase in difficulty once I unlocked the dark world. The dark palace was okay but I am honestly kinda stuck at the swamp palace. I would love to play through the game because it was a lot of fun up to this point but I don't feel like the game is mechanically fun enough to beat my head against the wall repeatedly. I have already noticed I can swap between the worlds with the mirror so I guess I could go to the normal world at any time to stock up on fairies. Are there any other tipps or hidden mechanics to make the game easier? I don't really want to spend a lot of time aimlessly searching the world for heart containers and following guides to them also seems kinda tedious.

The only game from the SNES era (or before) I have played so far is super metroid. That game was a lot of fun though and I really enjoyed the exploration there. Other than that I have played the remake of link's awakening, but I have an inkling that it may have been easier than the original?

I have actually played through a link between worlds without realising just how heavily it is inspired by alttp.

SNES had two of the best RPGs ever: Chronotrigger and FF6 (which was marketed as FF3 at the time outside of Japan). If you've never given them a shot, I highly recommend them.

So far I've always bounced off of JRPGs. Persona 5 was the last one I tried and tbf I actually kinda enjoyed the combat mechanics but I didn't like the story. If I ever get into the genre I will definitely give a few SNES ones a shot (Earthbound and secret of mana are also two I have always heard good things about)
