No, the exact opposite happens. Some complete normie fuck will look at OoT and think its blocky trash that aged like milk. Only those educated in games would be able to see just how incredible the game is, and what it meant for 3D games, especially in 1998.

Egoraptor is an entertainer and an animator, but that certainly does not make him any more knowledgeable than the average joe.

>>322589941
Zelda is all about a mixture of everything. That's why people that try to say "Dark Souls is the new Zelda" are retarded. The whole idea of why Zelda works well is that you have an fairly open world to explore with fun dungeons to look around in while solving puzzles to get nice items and in the end fight bosses.

Sometimes they work sometimes not but really no other series does it like Zelda. Darksiders tried and personally so fucking bad and happy 2 decided to not try to mimic the Zelda formula. Okami however was a fucking great Zelda game but sadly the dungeons were pretty weak.

Combat
It was fairly dull. Lot of waiting around. I'ld say it easier than the earlier games since at least positioning counted there. It was mostly just ya ya ya wait wait wait ya ya ya.

Travel
Fuck everything before you get Epona. God damn the world feels tiny and yet annoyingly big at the same time.

Visuals.
It had some nice areas don't get me wrong, but I really hate the N64 for having such bland ways to render.

No Jump button was kinda sad as well. It made everything look more epic than it played since jump was just walking. Would have been nice to have that gameplay. We burn games these days for that kind of automation.

Also to those that hate Navi, the Owl was far worse. Fucking skip text and repeat it all being the same button. Fuck that feathery douche.

Gamebreaking bugs that prevent you from finishing it.

Na'vi. Lackluster music compared to other titles. Needing to use the Ocarina whenever you want to do something. Havring to run through Hyrule field whenever you have to go somewhere. Objectives that aren't really explicitly clear, though I'll admit I am retarded so that might be subjective.

Boring boss fights, but that's kind of a Zelda thing.

That's about it. The rest of the game is decent, but I'll never understand why it's hailed as the second coming.

I'm not.

I am physically unable to acquire the Nocturne of Shadow on my first and only playthrough of the game. Don't bother suggesting anything, because I've already tried everything, it's a bug.

I mean obviously this contributes to why I don't fellate the game whenever it's mentioned, but it has other flaws, like the ones I listed.

What gamebreaking bug? Playing the game over and over again and haven't ran into any bugs.

>Navi
People love shitting on Navi but those are people that can't think of it as a 1998 game. People couldn't really get the whole 3D open world so Navi was there to help the player know where to go next. Yeah they could have used a notebook but they wanted someone to interact with. And the game is about Link having a connection to the fairy people.
>Music
Fuck you OoT had amazing music and the Ocarina was fine. It was use to teleport everywhere and the times to use Zelda's Lullaby was short and sweet.
>Run around Hyrule
The game was about exploring. And like I said you get teleporting powers.
>Boring boss fights
Most were memorable enough for me. I love the size difference with Child Link.

>>322593474

I was playing the 3DS version of the game.

I would have to re-check a guide to confirm exactly since I've never actually finished the game (obviously), or progressed past that point but I believe someone is supposed to spawn that gives you the Nocturne? And they just...didn't.

I tried for several days to wander around because I'd gotten stuck before and didn't want to use a guide for a children's game, but I got frustrated enough and went to gamefaqs, and that's where I realized events on my file didn't match up with the ones in the guide. So I spent quite literally several hours across several days trying to google and finagle my way to progress in the game, but to no avail.

I mean maybe I'll restart a file and finish the game one day, but I admit I'm still way too butthurt it happened in the first place.

Oh wow. The 3DS version isn't even the same as the original, that's a bug that was apparently added in that version. Weird, I'd expect the quality control to be better for such a relatively new release.
>>
>>322593917
I doubt it's a glitch, the Noctune event requires particular circumstances, it doesn't just automatically happen. It's possible that the 3DS version is bugged, but I've never heard of this, or any game breaking event, happening.

>and that's where I realized events on my file didn't match up with the ones in the guide

The only way I could possibly buy someone saying they're stuck is if they absolutely refuse to enter Kakariko Village from the main entrance and keep coming to it by warping Death Mountain or the Lost Woods and hiking down. In which event the graveyard and village will be stormy but the scene won't trigger.

Navi, in every way. Beyond the hand holding, HEY LISTEN, and generally annoying ever-presence, the context sensitive targeting/info/controls were busted as hell, but then context sensitive anything in video games is usually a huge red flag. Back then it was mostly untried, but it is a showcase for how to make a game as simple as possible. That game was a mess of poor execution, but Navi, bar none.

If it were any other game, I'd be more inclined to believe you. People really know a hell of a lot about the game and its minute details have been catalogued for years, to a greater degree than anything comparable. The game has crazy safeguards preventing you from fucking yourself over. Out of the millions of people who have played it, nothing like this has ever been documented.

It's been years since I played it, but what I remember is that when you first become adult, you have to do bunch of rubbish for game to get fun again, like getting Hookshot and clearing the first adult temple.

Other than that, I really don't have much grievances? It's not perfect, and some of later games have parts of it beat, but Ocarina really did tons of things right.

First runthrough of the original 64 version is basically 'perfect' because nothing is known.

Subsequent playthroughs reveal a somewhat empty world made only more so by the timeskip and rewards that mean very little beyond key items. The ice arrow is literally a pointless reward, for instance and the giant's knife is a meme item.

Factor in rupees or means to earn more rupees as your reward beyond pieces of heart and little else and you come to breeze past most content because money is pointless in OoT.

Dungeons are generally solid but suffer dips in quality and clarity and some become better as you play again while others become worse (the water temple is perfectly fine past run 1 and actually interesting. Meanwhile the Shadow temple is really neat looking but awful for repeats.)

It's a genre defining game and is unmistakably a Zelda game but it is not the unflinching, unerring edifice it is lauded as, it is instead just an exceptional game.

I think its biggest flaw was that it was "too safe"
It doesn't particularly excel at any area. It's too standard/definitive of the entire Zelda series. Even the graphics are too safe. It had good music, good gameplay, good dungeons, good enemy design, but I don't know if I can really call any of it great.

Like it'll always just be a B+ game. But that's going to stay a B+ throughout time, compared to something like Pokemon Red and Blue which is like a D right now compared to Heartgold and Soul Silver.

Not him but OoT is kind of just ALttP just in a 3D world. But to me I feel it was needed. They were worried about how they would be able to get a game like Zelda to really work in a big open world. So using a already known template was a safe move on their part.

It's not. It only shares the same overall structure. Hell, being able to freely aim around in 3D space changes so much about how you interact with the world and what is even possibly to do with it. ALttP can't hide things around surfaces since it has no rotational freedom at all.

In an extremely vague sense. You get three items, then dual world travel and then a bunch more sages/maidens. Aside form that, what you actually do and how the specifics are organised are completely different.
>>
Listen here you little shits, the REAL biggest flaw of OoT was that it started the transition to 3D.
All 3D Zelda games are inferior to the 2D games. There is no 3D Zelda that is better than A Link to the Past or Link's Awakening. Minish Cap is also great but sadly, it's too damn short.
Ocarina of Time was still acceptable but you could already see how 3D pales in comparison to 2D in Majora's Mask the Stone Temple is top tier though.

>>322604825

>>322589096
You a big part of the game is the exploration while you figure out what you are suppose to do next.

I'm most likely in a minority but I just thought it was boring as shit. I at the very least got some enjoyment out of SS.
>>
>>322607137
the guy rates TP above oot. you can safely disregard his opinion. TP is quite easily the worst 3d zelda, not counting SS which i wont judge because i havnt played.
>>
How does Wind Waker compare to the rest of the series? I'm just getting started with Zelda games (played TP and the DS games a long while ago though, but still, I feel ashamed) but I think and hope I picked the worst entry.

It's so easy and boring in every way possible. The grid system makes exploring boring because there is only one thing in each grid (except the occasional submarine or something else that's trivial). I can't make any notes so the advice from those fishes is mostly useless and I can't remember what item I need for which island. Most islands aren't worth going to, as it doesn't even take a few minutes to complete them. It's seemingly impossible to die so I don't really need to explore and get heart containers. But instead of heart containers I get those retarded sea charts (and I don't really need to look at them as the treasure have this huge light coming from the sea). I get my upgrades for free instead of having to buy them, making the Rupee system and thus most treasures completely useless. Windfall island was filled with NPCs which was great, Dragon Roost island was okay in that aspect but ever since that one there aren't any islands filled with NPCs. The dungeons are really fun if not a little bit easy and are the only reason I'm playing it. Also, Tetra just changed in that retarded, helpless princess Zelda. That's really disappointing.

A bit of a scattered post, but my question is if the other Zeldas are any better than this.
>>
>>322608040
Personally SS is the worst 3D Zelda and TP is second.

SS was one of the most lazy Zelda games to date. World feels so disconnected from each other. You go from Skyloft and jump to the different areas. Dungeons feels boring and outside of one or two boss fights SS might have the worse bosses in Zelda history. Fi is without a doubt the worse companion ever in Zelda (maybe in gaming). Combat feels weird having it base on the Wiimote. When enemies block it just feels annoying than them outthinking you.

It has some nice things but overall it was something that actually made me almost disregard the whole series. To me it felt almost like it was the Other M of Zelda.
>>
>>322608040
TP has great dungeons and that is pretty much the meat of the Zelda experience. That's why I rated it above OoT.
>>
>>322608632
I would recommend trying out Ocarina of Time. In my opinion it's miles better than WW. If that's not your thing then the series is not for you.
>>
>>322596694

>>322608632
Wind Waker HD actually did a lot of things to make it much better overall. It remembers what the fish tells you, sailing is faster with an item you can buy, and fixes that Triforce shit that made actually quit before finishing the GameCube version.
>>322608740
TP was boring as hell. Dungeons wasn't really that great honestly. Wolf Link should have been kind of sweet but I felt it never really used well outside of trying to kill all those shadows at once. It has some of the worse usage of items. Spinner should be fucking amazing but instead you use it like 3 times outside of the major dungeon (that was a sweet boss fight I give it that). They tried to make combat better with the different moves which was nice but near the end I only used the move that one shot everything and nothing else.

most zelda games are pretty easy because they are made for 10 year olds.

A lot of the fun comes from figuring out how to do stuff, even if that stuff is just a heart container that you dont need. in some of the zelda games these little things can be rewarding because they were a little clever, sometimes its just monotonous.

imo If a game presents you with a puzzle and you immediately know how to complete it you will find yourself going through the motions of that puzzle and it will not be very rewarding. But if you are presented with a puzzle and are not sure how to complete it so you think it out and make up solutions as you go along until you eventually find it out its a little more rewarding.
Some zelda games are more so the former than the latter. but pretty much all of them have tons of little puzzles for little things that you probably dont really need so if you dont find joy in finding those things even if it is "the latter" then zelda games are probably not for you.

If you want a challenge though try collecting all the masks in majoras mask. that quest for the couples mask is a doozy.

MM>OoT>WW

WW was alright, but I'd rather have less islands while having them be bigger and more meaningful.

MM won me over because it fixed some of OoT's issues while doing a lot of things differently and having a lot of optional content that's really fun to discover. Also, it had a more interesting story, and the system of time progression, while a bit annoying, also allowed individual NPC stories to unfold in a unique way.

Dropped TP after the first dungeon, it was boring as shit to me, and didn't even touch SS.

I generally prefer 2D Zeldas, overall. Shame ALBW was shit.

Like with every other game: Cut content.
>>
>>322612941
The game forces you to explore the world to advance the story.
I personally like this. If everything just neatly falls into place then the game feels too easy and linear and its really apparent that its on rails. If im out exploring stuff and im never sure when im about to find the thing that advances the plot the game does not feel so linear.

Though once you start getting older you find less joy in that sort of thing ;_;
