I finished finding all the heart pieces. I found a few on my own, but I had to look up the last two (drawing on a sacred wall for the Goron archaeologist guy, and one you had to dig underground to find outside the Fire Sanctuary).

That gave me 18 hearts. The other two hearts are from the Life Medals, which always were sent straight to storage when I found them. That was kind of disappointing.

I'd say I'm done now. I could finish the Gratitude Crystal sidequest, but the final reward isn't worth it.

Skyward Sword is easily the worst 3D Zelda, but it did have some high moments. It's a better game than the NES Zeldas and the DS Zeldas, as well as being better than Four Swords Adventures, but that's about it. Calling it "bottom tier" is a bit harsh, but it's certainly in the bottom half of all Zelda games. There was a lot of wasted potential, and so much handholding, gameplay stalling, and general padding (the BIGGEST offender there was the literal entire Song of the Hero quest). Hopefully the remaster fixes some of the annoyances, but I don't think they're going to reduce the padding. I won't be paying full price for it either way.
