How would you say it compares to the previous's game's Dark Beast Ganon final boss fight, which many criticized for being similarly too easy?
I think Calamity Ganon is a slightly harder, its been a few years since I last beat him, but I remember being at least slightly challenged by both forms. Gannondorf I was just able to tank him and wail on him. I dont know if having the Master Sword fused with boss material had a factorin it, but it hits Gannondorf like a mack truck. Any other boss and its just doing slivers to a health bar, but Gannondorf it takes chunks off. It was late at night I was tired, and I had ALOT more trouble getting to him, so I expected to get my ass handed to me at least once. Becuase there is SO much buildup with him, and his Demon King form looks very Similar to Demise who is one of the harder end bosses imo, but no I one shot him with no problem. I felt like I was very over prepared.
I think, overall, this might be the easiest Zelda game. All the really hard stuff is completely optional, the shrines, about a 3rd are blessings and the rest thanks to the new powers are extremely cheeseable. The only boss that gave me any real trouble is the Water Temple's due to its second phase and that was just more annoying then hard. Second place goes to Lightning Temple's boss, and that was my fault. I ran out of arrows literally half way through the fight, and its basically impossible to beat. It was also the boss that taught me I needed to upgrade my armor. Even Gleeoks aren't THAT bad, if you got a x3 bow and good supply of eyeballs, but before learning that, yeah they will murder you.
At one of the stables I found a person who will make monster sculptures based on pictures you take, though unlike Wind Waker, you have to do it in the order he requests.
But now I've forgotten which stable he's at.
I know there is a quest like that at terrytown
Kotaku had an article about that quest line. What’s hilarious is they will sculpt the monster in whatever pose the picture is in. And people have had some good fun with that fact.
Beat the main storyline yesterday since I was tired of holding off on it. Can’t agree on Shadewing’s analysis of the boss. You have to be damn good with parrying or Flurry Rush at some points of the battle. The last part though was pretty easy once you know what you are trying to do.

Pretty sure Shadewing was only talking about that boss battle, not the one before it.
Nope, I meant the whole fight. I never once parried or needed to flurry rush. I just pumbled him with the master sword, which just knocked whole chunks of health of him. He never even managed to get through a complete row of my hearts in either of his phases. There were times where I thought he was gonna flurry rush me, but he just slow mo dodges occasionally. Max Heatlh, 60 armor from fully upgraded clothes, Master sword fused with Queen Ghibdo wing, went in with plenty of max potions and gloom healers, and I think I only used one before the fight after the big ass army battle. Never once felt like he was a threat or challenge.
See I'm wondering if the Gibdo Wing gave you an advantage since any time I just swung at him with just the normal sword, that's all he would do.
And now the Frog Armor is at level 2. Rain means nothing to me now.
I guess now would be a good time to get back to the Zora main quest line.
