I just picked up pic related having never played a Zelda game before. What am I in for?

3DS holds your hand too much. The quality of life changes are amazing though. I have a hard time calling either version better.

I would advise you to play the N64 version through dolphin and VC

While there are some questionable redesigns the big problems lies with entire gameplay redesigns like the zora swim that's fucked up.

the 3ds version has everything way to bright and cheery looking, and also they fucked up the moons face. some people complain about zora swimming and deku movement, which is technically worse in the 3ds version but those are small issues. the big issue in terms of gameplay is that every boss got changed so that they just have a giant eyeball you attack instead of how they are normally done in the n64 version. also the twinmold fight is so long that when the 3ds version was released everyone thought it was broken and wasn't winnable but it was actually just absurdly long. I would probably suggest emulating the n64 version and if you cant tolerate the low fps then play the 3ds version.
the fps boost is really the only reason to play the 3ds version

3DS version also looks like the artwork

There are some minor gameplay changes I dont like. Also the QoL changes are mostly not needed at all and only added because brainlets couldnt deal with time mechanic. If you never played the n64 version then you wont know any better but i prefer the original.

You just posted another example of the 3D version being vastly superior

The N64 version is indeed better. You should obviously play OoT first though (on N64, obviously - the "remaster" is garbage). MM is much inferior to OoT, but if you enjoyed OoT, I guess it's worth having a look at.

A lot of taking off and putting on masks and repeatedly playing the same songs. ESPECIALLY in the tower.

Yeah, I wouldn't say the 3DS ver. is soulless, as the whole game looks really nice, but I think the N64 visuals and lighting engines fit the mood of the game much better. Additionally, Zora Swimming is so much quicker in the original, and the hopping on the water with the Deku mask actually works

the colorful cartoony look doesnt work well for majoras mask because its such a 2dark4u game that deals with loss and depression etc.

A nice way to play Majora’s Mask on the go, but the artistic integrity is lost and so many for the worse changes were made. And if anyone tells you they are QOL changes then are a bitch ass nigga and you should listen to them

nice bait

Except it's not "colorful cartoony", just because it has more colors than the original (which makes it looks way better) doesn't mean it's not the disturbing game it was before

Zelda games need to re use some of their old gimmicks more. The time gimmicks were top tier. The wolf gimmick was pretty lame. a 3d zelda using the seasons gimmick would also be interesting to me. I'm not a huge fan of the idea of the open world gimmick unless it has other cool gimmicks going for it as well.
