So, we can all agree on this, yes?
>Top down traditional Zelda>>> 3rd person 3D Zelda.
Classic Zelda >>>>>> Aonuma Zelda
Ages >seasons
>>319845279
Nope.
3D Zelda can be as fun as 2D.
Both have had great games as well as shit ones.
2D Zelda > 3D Zelda
It's that simple. Also, AoL is baller as fuck.
>>319845485
This too.
>>319845629
That's dumb, you're dumb.
>>319845279
I only liked 1 and LTTP, so I disagree
2d metroid > 3d metroid
>>319845279
Why are the GB Zelda games so comfy, lads?
>>319845279
Top down 3D Zeldas are shit though. Fucking hideous and intentionally gimped even though none of the Sprite games were.
The game openly admitting it could easily be controlled with the D-Pad instead of the Stylus is just insult to Injury.
Oracles of Ages feels like such a complete game compared to Oracle of Seasons that it's ridiculous, I don't really understand it.
>>319845279
Are the Oracle games worth it?
They look like a crossover between LA and OOT/MM, and while I love those games I dont want to be left with a bad taste if Oracles is shitty.
2d > 3d
>>319845279
But Zelda II is the best of all. Any tiers below that don't matter.
>>319846016
Made by Capcom and not NIntendo

Link Between Worlds > ALTTP
objectively correct
anything else is plain wrong
>>319846235
Not LA, the best one.
Link's awakening is by far the best top down Zelda.
Shame it gets no love or spotlight in Hyrule Warriors.
>>319846323
>LA, the best one.
Spotted the special snowflake.
>>319845279
The older ones were better, being 2D didn't stop Minish Cap from being shit
>>319845279
I just want a game that is based on the design philosophy of top-down Zelda that is also 3rd person 3D Zelda. Oh wait...Ocarina of Time
OP is a faggot
>>319845279
Link to the past >>>> every zelda
Any other opinion is objectively wrong. 3d fag can fuck off.
>>319845279
Yep.
3D Zeldas are awful. The format really only works in 2D.
>>319846379
Fuck off newfag.
So how should I play Oracle of Ages/Oracle of Seasons?
Should I play them both at the same time or one and then the other?
oracle games are best 2d
oot is best 3d
>>319846195
Yeah.
Ages/Seasons are great. Emulate.
>>319846438
>Muh contrarian opinions make me so unique!
>>319846483
Ages then Seasons.
>>319846483
One and then the other since they are two parts of one whole. After you beat one, you get a password for the next so you can get the true ending.
>>319846094
ALBW was pretty good. Phantom Hourglass is infuriatingly awful.
>>319846520
Go back to Reddit, /v/ loves LA.
>>319846520
>contrarian
If you don't think Link's Awakening is the best 2D Zelda then you ARE the contrarian faggot.
>>319846649
Hipsters love LA*
FTFY.
>>319845279
Top down Zelda is more consistently good but rarely pushes itself to do interesting new things.
3D Zelda is all over the place but at its best it does things that either influence the entire industry or do things seen in very few other games.
I respect 3D Zelda more in the long run for games like OoT, MM and WW but my favorite games come from the SNES and GBC.
>>319846649
the dungeons aren't as good as a link to the past and the overworld is more obtuse to travel
>>319845279
Nope. OoT>all other Zeldas
>>319846310
This better be a troll... Because that's one faggy opinion.
>>319846665
I can't go back to 8 way shit after ALBW was so smooth.
>>319846323
LA is completely outdone by the oracle games
>>319846483
just play them. seasons is more action and item oriented, ages puzzles and story/characters are better
>>319846665
LA is a clunky LTTP. All it has over it are the characters, everything else was shittier. OoA is LA done right
>>319846851
they use the same engine and similar graphics but design wise they're messy
>>319846195
They're probably my favorite zelda games.
If you have a 3DS you can get it from the eshop.
>>319846830
ALBW was too easy. It's okay but not great.
>>319846851
Maybe by Ages but definitely not Seasons.
>>319846891
LTTP is fucking atrocious, don't compare it to the GB games.
>>319846970
alttp definitely has better dungeons and a better overworld, the link's awakening gameplay is faster, more fun and action oriented though
>>319845279
Top Down Zelda = 3D Zelda >> Skyward Sword
>>319846970
Man, did that game ever feel smooth. I tell you, smooth as a--! Ugh, I gotta forget about that thing
>>319846970
>LTTP is fucking atrocious
Get a load of this contrarian.
>>319847240
LttP is boring, it's like the literal outline for top down Zeldas. Cmon man.
Do you throw that word around a lot or just when you don't have anything else to show for the game being called shit?
>>319846970
>ALBW was too easy
uhhh you dont even have to try in most of LA, since every other screen has invincibility seeds. LA puzzles are also braindead and devoid of any creativity sans the tower.
>Maybe by Ages but definitely not Seasons.
no dude, they are both better than LA. seasons/ages both have a better and bigger overworld with more variety in its levels, both of them have harder and more complex dungeons (especially ages), the items in the seasons/ages are alot better, the characters and story are better (well the story in seasons is shit ill give you that).
>LTTP is fucking atrocious
lttp is better than LA by a mile
>>319846970
LTTP had
>an actually good OW filled with things to find
>more than 2 good dungeons
>better items
>smoother gameplay
>better graphics
>passible dialogue
LA had
>very restricted and messy OW, okay amount of content
>garbage dungeons until the last 2
>fetch quest faggotry
>clunky gameplay
>good dialogue
>worse graphics, hard to tell what is what sometimes
>>319845279
I agree.
Speaking of which, shame the Oracle games don't get more love. Most everyone who has actually bothered playing them seems to have enjoyed them, from what I can tell.
>>319845279
No because 2D sidescrolling Zelda > top down traditional Zelda, and 3rd person 3D Zelda > 2D sidescrolling Zelda.
>>319847689
i think ages is on par with OoT
>>319845489
This post is completely %100 wrong
>>319845485
Aonuma Zelda is everything other than the first three+the gbc games right? Is the Minish Cap in that group?
OOT and MM are far better than any 2D zelda
Ages was fucking terrible and tedious, what the fuck is wrong with you /v/?
>>319847932
You're even worse than that LA nut-hugger.
LA did pretty damn good for gameboy graphics and only 4 buttons. Any complaints based on those are really unfair.
>>319847932
>MM
LOL
>>319846970
>ALBW was too easy
Say that to my hero mode 3 heart no bottle no item buying no optional upgrades run faggot not online and see what happens.Just kidding it's still kind of easy very fun though, really makes you learn the bosses.
>>319847964
so what dungeon did you get stuck in?
>>319847932
You know, I like Majora's Mask but the constant "MUH ATMOSPHERE" bullshit that fans of it spew has made discussion of it as obnoxious as fucking Undertale.
>>319848119
Well it does have the best atmosphere in the series phampai.
>>319847547
>LA puzzles are also braindead and devoid of any creativity
Yeah, just like literally all of ALBW after you rent all of the items you need and soar through the game.
The story and characters in Seasons were shit. The reason why I said Ages is so much better is because there are actual changes that happen when you switch times, whereas nothing but the environment changes in seasons.
>>319847572
I really don't see the greatness of LttP's overworld. It was fucking boring. What was there to find? Smoother gameplay is arguable and listing better graphics? Pfft.
How is the overworld in LA restricted and messy? Because you aren't able to traverse some sections without required items? If anything the dialogue in LA was better than LttP.
I'll give you worse graphics but that's nullified by LA DX.
>>319848189
And the worst dungeons and items.
>>319848119
funny how you're so autistic, you try to make this about Undertale
>>319847929
just wind waker, twilight princess
was involved in ocarina of time very minorly and was secondary to koizumi in majora's mask
>>319848209
>characters in Seasons were shit
Rosa was better than marin, which was the only decent character in LA
>>319848280
>drawing a comparison to another game that has the same problem with incredibly obnoxious fans is autistic
>>319848189
OoT has better atmosphere
the only atmosphere in MM was "trippy" and it got old fast
>>319848551
OoT doesn't even have atmosphere until Ganon fucks shit up. At least with Majora's Mask there's a constant sense of doom and the characters help to elevate that sense with their trivial bullshit, but what atmosphere does OoT have? Heroic? What-A-Nice-Day-I-Think-It's-Time-To-Save-The-World atmosphere?
>>319846851
Seasons/Ages were fun, but I feel like there should have been more to them.
As tired as it is to say it, LA was pretty fun for what it was as an encapsulated whole. Oracles just needed that third game, honestly.
>>319848209
Boring? LTTP's OW was filled with secrets and it actually gave you enough room to move around (unlike LA's claustrophobic crap) while also having enough detail to keep from being empty. And that's just ignoring the Dark World, which handled item progression through the land far better than LA did. The gameplay is not just arguably better, its basically LA's gameplay minus the Gameboy compromises. You can prefer LA's sprite art more than LTTP, but to me some things don't even look like what they portray.
>>319848717
>OoT doesn't even have atmosphere until Ganon fucks shit up
shut the fuck up dude, that was the most moronic thing i have ever heard. atmosphere does not equal "never ending sense of impending doom"
go back into kikori forest and see how whimsical everything is, then see the drastic change when you enter the deku tree. how ganondorf is always looming in the back of your mind. thats atmosphere established right.
>>319848717
>OoT doesn't even have atmosphere until Ganon fucks shit up.
OoT had NO atmosphere in the adult world. Everything was dead and the large majority of the NPCs were just absent. Except in the town, where everything was oddly 100% fine. Even playing it when it was new, it felt like it was super rushed and unfinished.
>>319849342
Meh, I didnt really feel any change, nor was I ever worried about Ganon. Guess thats just me. I preferred when my failures had actual visual consequences and MM drew me in more because of it.
>>319848351
Koizumi wants to switch with Aonuma for one game so he can prove that he's good for the series.
>>319848717
>OoT doesn't even have atmosphere until Ganon fucks shit up.
Darkness =/= Atmosphere
>>319846005
This.
>>319846323
you da boss
>>319845279
Are they seriously using the shield sprite as the base of those beer glasses in that gif?
>>319852061
No it just looks similar
>hurr I know how we can cut budgets and save 20 pixels
>>319852061
I dunno... it looks more curved than the shield is.
I prefer 2D side-scrolling Zelda.
>>319845279
Capcom Zelda>Nintendo Zelda
I wish they made a 3D Zelda
I wish Nintendo and Capcom still had the same relationship from a decade ago so we get gems like the Oracles again.
>>319845489
Wrongest opinion I've seen today. Jabu-Jabu's existence in Ages proves you wrong
>>319847415
LttP people just can't stand the idea that anyone would think of their game as a letter entry of the series. It really is weaker than at least half of it though and doesn't stand out at all apart from establishing the general pallet of the series.
>when these games give you a Level 2 Power Bracelet instead of an actually interesting item
>>319855004
>when you get the magnet hands
>>319845279
3d over 2d
V is just terrible like always
Am I the only one that enjoyed Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks?
>>319846395
This post is so underrated.
>>319854712They did.It's hipster garbage.
>>319855272
You are not. Phantom Hourglass is underrated and Spirit Tracks, by far has yet to be topped.
>>319855272
They're both alright games, it's just they have many questionable design choices, especially regarding the absolutely awful material rarity system.
ST Zelda is pretty much the best Zelda, she was excellent.
>tfw preferred the compact and fun la to lttp, which I found boring
Am I in the minority?
>>319845279
New Zelda is slowly becoming les Zelda like because people want an open world game. How does a huge open world benefit actual gameplay?
>>319857280
Generally, it doesn't.
But 3d Zelda is already pretty much a collectathon.
May as well go whole hog.The item descriptions will still unflag when you turn off the console.Even for rupees.
