I think I'm closer to the target audience as I usually learn either by "ear" or by watching someone play the song. Actually, what I prefer is looking/finding the chords first, and then I fill up the melody and everything

Ocarina of Time does a fantastic job going from the bright world of young Link to the more serious and darker world of adult Link. This adds a ton of depth to the game. And let's not forget the clever game mechanic of swapping between

Personally I think it's because we're "looking" at it from the wrong angle. A bit like in programming when you're stuck and you need to take a step back and approach the problem differently. IMHO the fundamental con
