Just beat this game for the first time, and my god it's painfully mediocre.
>>
Arin?
>>
>>337478163
I watched that faggot's video before playing it and I actually disagree with almost, if not, everything he said.
>>
It's a 1998 game,just sink that in your mind,underage.
>>
>>337478095
That's because it was the best game at its time.
>>
I agree
I think I only had fun in the Shadow and Light temple.
>>
>>337478345
What the fuck is there to do in the light temple? its just a big room
>>
>>337478345
I don't get why people hated the water temple so much. It's pretty easy. The forest temple is the one I had trouble with, surprisingly.
>>
>>337478095
What are you talking about? The Homebrew launcher is way more than just mediocre.
>>
>>337478510
I don't even remember but I think I had fun there
>>337478523
I don't dislike the water temple any more than I do the rest of the game
>>
>>337478316
This.
Of course it seems mediocre, you've played dozens and dozens of games that have straight ripped off or innovated on this formula. Don't try to compare a Model T Ford to a Lamborghini.
>>
>>337478764
Oh I think you meant the spirit temple. the ligth temple is where the master sword is
>>
>>337478836
My bad
>>
>>337478095
I replayed it recently and still think it's one of the better Zelda games. ALttP remains the best.
>>
>>337478095
the only thing mediocre is your mother birthing you through her rectum you disgusting piece of millennial shit.
>>
It was great unless you are younger than the game, lmao op
>>
>>337478095
Every third person game from 1998 on has built on the mechanics OoT brought to be. It's not mediocre, it's a progenitor. It's still well executed for what it attempts to do. It's only real sin is not trying to do very much by today's standards.

I'd argue too many games now attempt to do far too much and that's every bit as much a sin.
>>
I can imagine OoT being less than impressive if you first played it in 2016. It might seem mediocre, rudimentary even, but it's also one of those games that established standards in the first place. Quite frankly I'm surprised at how sound I still find its design over 15 years after my first playthrough. Games have definitely gotten bigger and more complex but I think OoT's foundational design is still better than most modern games. It just does so much with what it has while making very few missteps, like my list of sincere negatives for the game is very, very small.
>>
>>337479787
I agree with that. The main issue here is that there are those who believe that the game holds up by today's standards only because they won't take of their nostalgia goggles.

For example, I played Banjo-Tooie around the time it was released and I thought it was great then. Playing it as an adult is unbearable, the N64 cannot handle this game, half of the game slows down to a crawl when too much is on the screen.
>>
>>337478095
Epic bait m8 :^)
>>
>>337480374
honestly as someone who plays games like they watch movies: i play a game i want to play independent of the fact if they are new or not, so i jump around old and new consoles/games and let me tell you:

oot holds up well in every department except graphics.
>>
>>337480374
As a whole I think I agree. But broken down OoT still does things better than some modern games. The best example would be its lock on camera logic. I play DS3, a game that came out 18 years after OoT, and have more issues with the camera than a game that can now buy porn and cigarettes legally.

When a game's biggest crimes are there not being enough of it, spreading it a bit thin/short, and it being a bit easy, I struggle to really call it bad by any stretch.

It's a fucking masterpiece desu
