Did shenanigins really get worse?

That didn't take long.
inb4 Fairies are fair play, yet Heart medal isn't.

Of course fairies are. They're the same thing as potions (and they're harder to get to in Skyward Sword). Hearts aren't dropped by ANYTHING by default. The Heart Medal makes hearts drop at the same rate as having the Heart Medal in the original playthrough. It's kind of cheating to use that if you ask me. :X
