fish breasts, that also why botw is highly praised
A groundbreaking release that is infinitely replayable and still retains a high degree of quality.
It really is comparable to the original Star Wars, I think. It is suitable for all ages, harkens back to ancient myth, and has stood the test of time as a true classic.
people who grew up with consoles
Why does it matter. Enjoy what you like and dont get so hung up on what the majority of people believe if it upsets you so much. Ultimately someone claiming it was the best game to just follow the crowd really isint a big deal and one day they will decide if they truly think that or not.
you tell me what you think man, you have played it all the way through right?
Being a kid when it came out.
Amazing graphics for the time, amazing music, amazing gameplay. There is barely anything wrong with it.
>groundbreaking
How so?
weeb boomers.
If you've played literally any modern action-adventure RPG it has nothing to offer you.
I played it for the first time last year and it was good
First 3D zelda and is still fun to play to this day. Being "the best game of all time" is subjective but OOT is universally liked enough that it's a safe game to give that title.
You just don't understand at all Zoomer
> Reviewed in 2003: Widely considered to be the best 3D adventure game of all time, Ocarina of Time still continues to serve as the blueprint for modern third-person games. Whether it's the innovative lock-on camera system, the sprawling, interactive environments, or simply the sense of adventure you feel the moment you step into the blinding Hyrule sun, this classic has not lost any of its luster over the years. The more recent Majora's Mask and Wind Waker sequels come close, but it's Ocarina of Time that has influenced 3D Gaming more than any other game.
> Reviewed in 2005: Universally considered by critics to be the greatest game ever made, Nintendo's Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the only game to receive a perfect 99 Metascore. The masterpiece, which stars hero Link in both child and teenage form, helped pave the way for 3D adventure games, but it will likely be remembered and adored for two other reasons: first, it reinvented Nintendo's famed Zelda franchise and actually made it better. And second, it showed Nintendo 64 fans and the larger videogame community that as revolutionary and pretty as Super Mario 64 was, Nintendo still had some serious magic in its hefty bag of tricks. Ocarina of Time is an epic undertaking shining with tight control, genious level design and intuitive play mechanics. It remains one of the all-time most innovative adventure outings to date.
>It is suitable for all ages, harkens back to ancient myth, and has stood the test of time as a true classic.
Wrong, let a kid play OOT now and they will say it sucks
Yeah, but in my very late 20s. It's a good game, but I don't know why so many people call it GOAT.
Stupid fucking zoomer. Modern games took most of their ideas from this game.
Dumb kids who played it at 5 and can't remove their nostalgia goggles.
I played fucking Atari's E.T. when I was a kid and I don't have some fucking dumb nostalgic love for that pile of goddamn garbage. Holy fuck, kids, admit your childhood games (and pretty much every game since) was shit.
Reviewed in 2007: Few make it to the top of every best-of list. And None deserve it more than The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Nobody knew what the hell an ocarina was before 1998, but valiant and musically inclined Link got a lot of mileage out of that little clay flute. It opened doors, shifted blocks, summoned horses, fairies and scarecrows, changed the weather, turned night into day and broke the time/space continuum. It carried a nice tune, too. Link's latest rescue mission stacked more challenges in one dungeon than most games had in total, and looked better doing it. That would've been enough, but Ocarina broke ground with context-sensitive buttons and target lock-on features, innovations we take for granted today. Ingenious puzzles made you timeshift between teen and pre-teen Links to use new skills in the past, or plant seeds you'd reap in the future. Ocarina of Time never ran out of coolness, not only bringing Nintendo's other franchise into 3D, but brilliantly expanding the concepts Mario 64 pioneered. This was adventuring made epic... and timeless.
What ideas have most modern games taken that didn't exist prior to OOT?
So it invented the current form of the 3rd person adventure game genre.
Many games have done their own spin of it, but this was the first one done well and had good advertising.
No one is arguing against it being good or not, just that it is rediclous to say it is still the best game of all time when there are far more better games out there that did what it did much better and more, also I hate it when a game doesn't have a jump button
So literally just nostalgia.
see
Pretty much everything OoT did.
No, it's historical value, Ooc it's a masterpiece for what it archieved and that's why it's one of the greatest games ever created.
It came out before I was born so I've never played it, but if normies and redditors think it's the greatest game ever it's 100% guaranteed to be NPC garbage.
alright another quick question, what's your take for the best game of all time?

you forgot to post a wojak pic

My post wasn't an argument though..
Except it isn't, here is a review from 2015 & 2018
> 2015: I didn't like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time until I solved my first puzzle. I felt like a genius solving a temple, and watching Link make his way back out into Hyrule. That's when I realized this wasn't a simple hack-and-slash action game set inside strange structures -- this is a world full of fun people and memorable places, bizarre quirks, and a subtle, brooding atmosphere. This enthralling, incredible open world captured our imagination, stunning us with its scale, and hooking us on its exploration. It felt like a real adventure, something that required work and time that paid off perfectly. Years later, Ocarina of Time holds up as well as it ever did -- that this masterpiece is so readily replayable on Nintendo 3DS is a blessing.
> 2018: The first 3D Zelda game revolutionized the way people thought about action adventures and 3D combat, earning nearly unanimous perfect scores and critical praise from every outlet. Mechanically,Ocarina of Time is a marvel; slowly introducing systems and increasing the complexity in such a masterful way that many of the elements from Ocarina of Time continue to be industry standards today. Narratively, it’s still one of the best stories ever told in a Zelda game as you seamlessly jump back and forth between timelines in a quest to thwart the evil Ganondorf and save Princess Zelda. It became the template for Legend of Zelda games for nearly twenty years, and is still regarded as the greatest game of all time.
A lot of games have done it better but it pioneered the 3D adventures game, 3D targeting, and had the first real open world area with hyrule field. It’s not the best but definitely one of the most influential

Wrong, Metroid Prime is the only game that even compares & it suffers from frustrating backtracking. People who say "There are lots of better games" always end up crying about niche games that nobody ever talks about
How about you post a review at the time of release
Normies don't like it. Weebs do.
Mega Man legends had 3D targeting before
>brainlet solves children's puzzle
>GOAT
lmao
Because it's objectively one of the 10 best games ever, the only people who claim otherwise are
> A: Contrarains who are assmad about it's critical acclaim like OP
> B: Brainlets who couldn't get past the Water Temple
> C: Zoomers who never played it & parrot all of their opinions from E-Celebs or GameGrumps
my 12 year old brother just finished it last month, and prefers it to botw.
CAUSE IT IS
These two.
>Amazing graphics for the time
nah
The fact the people who claim so have triforce tattoos.
Keep telling yourself that, maybe it will become true one of these years
> The wait was very well worth it. Ocarina of Time is easily the best in the series. Sure, the game has a couple of little flaws (the annoying Navi "hey" messages, for example) -- but unlike the hundreds and hundreds of uninspired gaming sequels that find their way into console and PC owners' homes every year, Ocarina of Time takes some basic gameplay and story ideas from its predecessors and rolls them into a completely unique experience. I don't know how many games I have played in my life where you see some cool scenery in the background and you're thinking "wow, wouldn't it be great if you could actually go there?" That's what Zelda is all about. You see something and you're thinking "wouldn't it be cool if you could..." -- and you can. The fighting system is fantastic, the new camera system unlike anything you have ever seen. Apart from a little slowdown and a few blurry textures here and there, the graphics are insanely beautiful. The sunsets and rain sequences, the projectile and smoke effects, everything is displayed in vibrant colors and with much attention to detail. Although the lack of the overworld theme is a bummer, the many returning Zelda melodies (such as the glissando announcing a secret or the fanfare when finding an item) and the moody dungeon scores are only outdone by the amazing surround ambient effects. In the gameplay department, the gap between Nintendo's in-house development and third party titles becomes painfully clear. Zelda: Ocarina of Time should be recommended playing for ever aspiring videogame designer and programmer out there. If you're making games and you haven't played this game, then you're like a director who has never seen Citizen Kane or a musician who has never heard of Michael Jackson. If you're a gamer looking for your next title to buy, then take it from me, this is as good as it's going to get for the rest of your lifetime
What about Souls games? They seem popular and outdid the OoT formula
I meant that more as the systems that OoT introduced have been improved and done better since it’s creation.
That’s cool, never knew that
>If you're making games and you haven't played this game, then you're like a director who has never seen Citizen Kane or a musician who has never heard of Michael Jackson
zoomers are the worse of all with their fortnite cancer and wasting money on fucking skins.
>this is as good as it's going to get for the rest of your lifetime
Still true 20 years later
Shut the fuck up zoomer. Don't speak on things you don't know.
He's not wrong at all.
Dark Souls is 3D Diablo, comparing it to OOT is unfair because nothing will ever be as well designed as that game. It's infinitely replayable & perfect in almost every fundamental aspect, it's the equivelent of Tetris
It revolutionized many mechanics and features still present in modern games and was so far ahead of other games in its genre at the time that it was laughable.
Just compare it to other similar games like Crash and Spyro. The fact trolls have to compare it to modern games to try and shit on it just makes it that much more apparent.
>capture the ocarina
kek
That's true, but you couldn't move while targeting an enemy. Zelda OoT did it first.
>Infinitely replayable
Played it once. That's enough for anyone.
>What makes this always hailed the best game of all time?
Simple, the people who hail it as the greatest game of all time have never bothered to play any good games besides Ocarina of Time so they play this 8/10 game and think no other game comes close then refuse to try other 8/10 games.
I fucking hate Fortnite though, and would never touch it, and who's retarded enough to waste real money on cosmetics?
>outdid the OoT formula
You have no clue on what you are talking about
I agree, Dark Souls really is perfect.
The souls games took a lot of aspects from OoT dipshit.
So you never actually played it & are just jealous? Typical
fanboys,this is literally the only game that is rated very high but also taken to shit by lots of people because it really isn't the best even of the genre,it's a good game but nothing more and people overrating it can't accept it's a "mediocre to good" game
Go on..
As soon as Dark Souls is good enough to be at the top of every single one of these lists, then maybe you will have an argument
Yes he is. Name a better looking game that came out the same year.
So what specifically?
>Infinitely replayable
Until you get to the water temple
>It's infinitely replayable & perfect in almost every fundamental aspect
Which game are you referring too?
A lot of the game is a slog outside a few select dungeons
> A game that couldn't even win GOTY & got utterly destroyed by Skyrim being better than the game that won every GOTY award in the period where all of these other masterpieces came out
OOT Haters are pathetic brainlets
If you want every single thing you will have to look it up yourself cause my memory is shit but the biggest thing is the camera and lock on targeting.
Reddit discovered it and won’t shut up about it.
That's what I'm saying retard, Souls took the OoT formula and made it "better"
T. Literally never played it
Ocarina of Time, Dark Souls is a great game but comparing anything to OOT aside from SoulCalibur is simply unfair & blashpemy
I did, a few times I played it.
I usually get 3hrs into the game or so over a playthrough or two then lose interest.
But I never liked any 3d Zelda until Breath of the Wild. In fact before BotW I would say Oracle of Ages/Seasons were the best Zelda games.
Even though Dark Souls is way better than OoT, it's still really just an inferior version of Stygian Abyss.
>12/16 of Yea Forums's games are Nintendie shit
I thought Yea Forums had better taste than this.
MGS
The colors are nice.
So then why doesn't it have a 99 on Metacritic like Ocarina of Time does?
Argumentum ad populum. Most Japs think Dragon Quest is the pinnacle of RPGs, but that doesn’t make it so.
And? That doesn't invalidate OoT being a great game.
It isn't.
IGN appears to have a few too many Nintendo games and no where near enough Halo/Gears games.
Don't you know IGN is just XboxGaf ? or at least it was until the xbone just did so badly.
Half-Life
Factually wrong
> Most popular company of all time has the most popular games that everyone likes & agrees are good aside from Contrarians desperately trying to be different
Shocking i know
No. Just no.
Most reviewers are too casual for Souls.
As a child without the internet it was the first major 3D game that emphasized exploration. It drove my imagination wild wondering stupid shit like if you jump into the middle of the shit beneath Ganondorf's castle you would get teleported into a secret zone or some shit.
According to who exactly? Yourself?
If you play OoT today it still feels like that of a modern game to play. You can't say that for hardly any other games of that era.
I have played it on release and replayed recently
Reddit. Just Reddit.
Dark Souls is easy as fuck, blind kids casually beat the game without being hit. If that's your only argument than it's proof that Dark Souls isn't a very good game
wow what a compelling argument
you're right cartoon gfx are better
First, I don't hate OoT. Second, winning GOTY doesn't mean anything here since we're talking about the quality of the game. And lastly I don't really like Souls games I was just simply offering an example of a game that seems to take what OoT did and do it "better"
Debatable, plus Half Life is a PC game.
What Zoomers & contrarian console war fags fail to understand is that Nostalgia for OOT exists because of how fucking flawless it was when it came out
MGS isn't exactly a very realistic style either though, at least MGS 1
It always struck me as more of a comic book artstyle.
IIRC, MGS 2 was originally going to go full comic style with it but was scrapped for a more realistic style.
Yeah, right. That’s why the same reviewers claiming OoT to be the best game ever use DaS as the measuring stick for difficulty.
Now who’s being a contrarian? If Dark Souls is easy, then OoT is brain-dead shite.
>plus Half Life is a PC game
And? Person claimed OoT had the best graphics for the time. This just proves that wrong.
I never said it isn't a great game moron, just that hailing it as THE greatest seems odd when there are better games out there, but it's cool if you consider it you favorite game of all time since it's just other people's preferences
>Debatable
Not at all.
This list is pure distilled reddit.
Clearly OOT is hard since most people can't even get past the water temple, Soulsfags just use "Muh Difficulty" as an excuse for their games not being rated high
What's that supposed to mean? Reddit is the most popular forum of all time
Not really.
> Literally no other game has come close to it's critical acclaim except Chrono Trigger
> Still pushing the narrative that "Better games exist"
> Immediately cries using whatever buzzwords he can whenever he cannot explain why it's not as critically acclaimed as OOT
>Reddit
>most popular forum of all time
Cringe, you should go back
This. Everyone knows more popular = better.
I don’t know why we’re still posting on this 7/10 basket weaving forum.
If you want to go to the argument of popularity, then the best games ever made are Minecraft, GTAV, Crossfire, World of Warcraft, Fortnite, and whatever we call the single CoD game that keeps getting reskinned.
GTAV alone completely BTFOs the entire 30-year Zelda franchise with its $6 billion revenue.
I said amazing, not best.
It is. They are both great looking games for the time. OoT has larger areas too.
Are there any scan of the old egn, tips and tricks or nintendo power reviews of oot and mario64?
I first played OoT when I was 9, and it blew my mind. It was my second Zelda game after WW and just like WW, I became obsessed with it. Honestly, this is one of those "you had to be there" things. Don't get me wrong, the game is timeless and is objectively a masterpiece, but if you didn't grow up playing it, you're not gonna get the full feels.
>Literally no other game has come close to it's critical acclaim except Chrono Trigger
That user said Metroid Prime, but whatever
>Still pushing the narrative that "Better games exist"
Well we are talking about the best game of "ALL TIME"
>Immediately cries using whatever buzzwords he can whenever he cannot explain why it's not as critically acclaimed as OOT
I didnt cry or say any buzzwords just called you a moron for putting words in my mouth, and I'm not talking about critical acclaim, if I was I will bring shit like the Witcher 3 and the Last of Us or some bullshit
Exactly. Zoomers who never experienced the transition into 3D won't understand.
No one gives a fuck about how good it used to be, they care about how good it is now compared to games that came later.
Playing Half-Life, System Shock 2, or Age of Empires II is still fun even compared to modern games. Ocarina of Time isn't. It has nothing but nostalgia going for it.
You salty salty PC lad
What an absolutely retarded post.
Seething
>Dark Souls is 3D Diablo
nigga what
>Game Grumps
Man that OoT sequelitis was bad. The fact that he honed in on one minute detail and made it a deal breaker was peak autism.
>Nier Automata
Holy fucking christ this place has awful taste. Its not a bad game but best of all time material? Not even close. Just goes to show that you should never listen to Yea Forums's opinion.
Dragon Quest is the definitive JRPG experience. All other JRPGs follow the beat set by Dragon Quest.
Arin is not a gamer, and anyone who thinks he is is an NPC. The guy fucking SUCKS at OoT. He fights a Stalfos and takes out his fucking Hookshot for NO REASON. And he stands NEXT TO a Deku Scrub and has the AUDACITY to blame the game for making him wait even though a mentally retarded 5 year old will know that you have to stand away from the 'Scrub. FUCK Egoraptor!
Everyone says it's the best so I just go along with it.
MNSG and MGS both feel just as modern.
I also love how he considers OoT a "sequel" to Alttp. You know, usually sequel means something that is directly connected to a previous installment. Calling OoT a sequel to ALttP is like calling Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door a sequel to Super Mario World.
Low quality critics
>Ocarina of Time isn't.
Except that's wrong you fuck. I played OoT for the first time a couple of years ago on an emulator and I was surprised just how good it was for a game that came out in 1998.
You would have liked it even more if you played it on a console. Playing OoT with a controller on the TV in your basement kicks any emulator's ass any day.
The MGS story and cinematic approach feel pretty relevant but it's hard to get over the jaggies and poly arms don't help it. Maybe if I played Twin Snakes.
>MNSG and MGS both feel just as modern.
>MGS
>feels modern
Retard.
>Retard.
Mystical Ninja and Banjo Kazooie feel more modern than OoT.
Again, it's Taro secondaries. Nier is better, but even that and Drakengard (which mentally raped me as a kid along with shit like Phantasmagoria), wouldn't even get on as they're far too flawed.
It was very innovative.
It didn't hold your hand.
The characters, setting, and music have an everlasting charm.
>hardly any
Brave Fencer Musashi feels more modern than OoT.
Banjo hasn't aged very well at all as far as platformers go. Mario 64 aged a bit better.
People got tired of the collectathons and they are extremely rare nowadays.
>Brave Fencer Musashi
youtube.com
You're fucking joking right?
Anyone saying "hardly any" is a retard who can't construct an accurate mental conception of 1998's game scene.
The Dreamcast with Sonic Adventure which feels more modern came out within a month of OoT's release.
I mean, it can be loosly interpreted as a sequel but it's a stretch. Arin's just lucky that Jon and Danny are fun to watch, otherwise Game Grumps would be pretty awful.
On the bright side, at least his vidya takes aren't worse than Maddox's.
>Maddox
Oh man, what happened to that guy? I remember when he was the OG troll, now he's just another Internet celebrity.
You're either a mentally blind cherry picker or you didn't watch much of that.
Gen 6 couldn't into 3D platformers and didn't have any that were appealing.
Zoom zoom? Seriously if you have to ask this question, it's easy to assume you're zoomer scum.
It's widely regarded (by consumers, critics and game developers alike) as the most revolutionary game in game history. At a time when 3D games were in their infancy, it not only invented but at the same time perfected many aspects of narration, world design, dungeon design, story progression, handling of traversal and weaponry in a 3D environment etc. Many game developers such as Rockstar Games are on record saying that no other game influenced them as OOT and they draw from it to this day. On a subjective note, it is a beautifully game with a surprisingly rich story, relatable timeless themes and memorable characters and music and most people shed a tear by the time they reached its end.
Also this:
He's just a cuck now.
How about people like me who had no trouble beating the game and just don't like the fact that it treats the player like a toddler the entire game
Not to mention
>Hero's journey
>You win by playing batminton with the big bad
Oh yeah let's just have the player do a tennis minigame rather than use any of the dozens of items and weapons they've picked up over the course of the game.
Every single "puzzle" in the game as well is literally just a button that opens a door. It's so fucking sad to imagine people feeling smart following basic instructions. Do you even fucking remember how many times Navi takes away player control to remind you to play Zelda's lullaby on the triforce symbol? It's literally every single time you see the triforce symbol, because the ocarina serves no actual purpose other than being 6 button presses to interact with a switch rather than just walking up to it and pressing A, which is what the interaction amounts to anyways.
Honestly the fact that anyone on this planet holds Ocarina of Time in higher regard than Super Mario 64 proves to me that the human race should've been cancelled centuries ago
And yet you refuse to compare it to games like tomb raider or legacy of Kain? Nice.
If the game's mechanics are so complex, how come it tosses every single thing aside for the final boss of the game?1
Thank you, finally a good post.
>infancy
BULLSHIT like you're saying is the only thing I hate about Ocarina.
Then either tell me any 3D game in 1998 or earlier that handled the aspects I mentioned in a better way or admit that your mother is a whore.
Nah, it was a really safe and formulaic game that did little other than to transpose 2d Zelda into 3 dimensional space. That comparison doesn't works because you've chosen to compare it to platformers rather than say Tomb Raider, which had "Z targeting" in 1996. What "mechanics and features" did Zelda have that were so revolutionary? You're conflating the novelty that 3d added to a safe, established formula for some kind of actual innovation in the adventure genre. Just admit that you're another brainlet who likes it when games give you menial tasks that are easy to accomplish.
This is so fucking hilarious, OoT fanboys are literally too brainlet for the water temple in 2019. No wonder solving Zelda "puzzles" makes mouthbreathers like you feel so accomplished, lighting those torches exactly how na'vi tells you must have felt like some mensa level shit to your peabrain
>Hey link!

Pic related OoT fanboys trying to figure out what song Na'vi meant.
If there's one thing we can ACTUALLY credit to OoT's influence in gaming, it's
>Wait a minute, that card...
Christ this thread reeks of zoomer...
I think a good analogy is Vitruvian Man. By modern standards, it's not a good example of realism, of course not. We've since developed, not only techniques, but the tools of illustration to a level far in excess of anything Da Vinci had...
But Vitruvian Man is still a watershed moment in pen and ink illustration, and in realism at large. It changed how things are done in that arena, and it's influence is inescapable.
I'm not conparing OoT to Vitruvian Man in art value here you stupid zoomers, don't get it twisted, but the situation is practically identical and it's funny how zoomers can't grasp this shit. It's the same in nearly every medium, it's why zoomers think LeBron is better than Jordan, or capeshit is better than Coppola or Kubrick movies.
AND DICK IS THE WINNNNNNNERRRRRR!
MGS doesn't just feel more modern, it is more modern than Ocarina of Time. Fully voice acted, gives players the choice of searching out help rather than ceaselessly bombarding the player with with the exact solution to every "puzzle." MGS's narrative focus has additional had a larger impact on how games are designed today across far more genres than OoT.
Because it was one of the first 3D console games and pretty much the first Action Adventure 3D game and it nailed aspects so well that it's still a good game to this day.
It's like Nintendo decided that a horse and carriage wasn't cutting it any more and they had the technology to build a car, so they started building a car from their knowledge about their previous horses and carriages. Then, when they released the car, it was a 1986 Ferrari. They didn't just make a car, they made one of the best cars available. And this was essentially their first go at it.
OoT is a crowning achievement that will never be topped. There simply isn't a technology change that could make as much impact as OoT. If you're disagreeing, seethe harder.
>Millenials
>skyrim, red dead redemption
goddammit that's embarrassing. Imagine thinking a game as generic and soulless as skyrim is best game ever. I'd prefer not to even think about red dead forgotten
DDR
It is highly overrated.
Dance Dance Revolution?
>Tomb Raider, which had "Z targeting" in 1996
That wasn't the same mechanic as in OOT + it was shit and you know that.
C-button item trading with NPCs was fun and they never did enough with it in either Z64.
Nah, you're the faggot Zoomer here, conflating the novelty of 3D with actual innovation on how games are structured, or even adventure games for that matter. By your analogy regardless, Super Mario 64 would be the vitruvian man, not OoT.
Factually, the only "new" elemental brought to the table by OoT was it's "Wait a minute, that card..." level of handholding, which is the game's largest departure from the (already quite handholding) 2d games other than the shifting a 2d world to 3d, which again would make Super Mario 64 the "vitruvian man" of such a scenario as you put it.
>It's the same in nearly every medium, it's why zoomers think LeBron is better than Jordan, or capeshit is better than Coppola or Kubrick movies.
This. I wish I could enter these zoomers' houses and rape their mothers in front of their eyes.
>There simply isn't a technology change that could make as much impact as OoT.
This. The only chance a game could have a similar impact on the medium is when VR takes off and some company makes the first revolutionary title. But for the current state of controller + TV, there's zero chance any game could ever top it.
Zoomers are just untermensch
ALTTP > OoT
It also may be a bit too late for VR. It's been out for a while and has shown no signs of being a must-have. 3D in video games took off almost instantly and you can see that in the early ps1 games that were 2d, then quickly scrambling to be 3D. Realistically we only really saw games that were Super Mario 64 or OoT quality on ps2 titles like Jak and Daxter.
VR feels too gimmicky for it to actually take off and I wonder if it's just too late to have a title as impactful as OoT
ALttP sucks.
>OoT is responsible for 3d gaming
This is just obscenely false. I cannot believe the level of retardation I have just witnessed. Super Mario 64 was by far Nintendo's most revolutionary title, and it's not even close to being the first 3D game. Quake had mastered 3d years earlier, all Ocarina did was iterate on the series's established formula in 3D, in comparison to how different SM64 is from its predecessors, OoT is practically the same game as it's 2D counterpartsq
ALttP > Link's Awakening > TLoZ > OoT
theres literally at least one 100+ reply thread about ocarina of time on Yea Forums every single day, usually asking "what is actually good about this game" and theres NEVER any good arguments
what a monumentally overrated game, pure shit
2D Zelda is pure garbage.
It was a breakthrough of weeb aesthetics into 3D.

Same as 3D back then, VR is in its infant stage. These silly headsets you see are mere experiments. The first real games will start to come out once they figured out how to actually maneuver and traverse in a VR environment, because as of now all games are still stationary with only a 360° vision and virtual 'hand' movement. I give it another 10 to 20 years to really take off.
