What I miss about these walk-throughs is that the complete lack of hyperlinks and images made finding the help you needed feel like its own challenge. I remember getting stuck in Ocarina of Time in the early 2000s, and interpreting complex directions for a puzzle in a 3 dimensional space without any visual aids was still tough. I played Twilight Princess for the first time a decade later, and the one time I got stuck I just watched a guy on YouTube solve it. Copying him felt pretty unsatisfying.
I liked that I could ctrl+f < thing I want to know about> and go right to it instead of having to jump around in a 20 minute video for a 2 minute thing.
Heck I remember ones that had specific chapter codes so you could find that code to get to that specific chapter
