Artificial difficulty. It didn't make them more challenging, it simply made them frustrating. All it took was an already very frustrating and boring concept--push/pull puzzles; and made them PAINFULLY time-consuming via making you stop after every push to dodge a pellet. It wasn't fun, it was annoying as ****.

Anyone who has these glorious flashbacks of old Graal quests are probably blinded by nostalgia, in my opinion. I mean... are you people simply just repressing all the buggy NPCs that forced you to completely restart the quest? What about waiting outside of the boss room for the other player to finish(because bosses had to be done one player at a time?). What about because this was prior to the NPC-server, meaning if other players were doing the dungeon, it was pretty much completed for you? Oh ya, the bosses themselves... buggy as **** most of the time and pretty much just spammed **** at you constantly and had a high amount of health. I don't really remember any involving much strategy so much as just endurance... and those that did try to be clever ended up failing horribly due to constraints of Graal and of course, being in a multiplayer environment. In fact, that's my opinion of most Graal quests/dungeons. Being a test of your endurance. Even the more functional and well-received quests on Graal's entire history, in my opinion, are pretty mediocre compared to Zelda.
