D-pad Joy discusses why Ocarina of Time was so important to gaming back then, just like Breath of the Wild is now.
BLG writes, "There are many fantastic and iconic weapons in game history, but some are significantly more memorable than others. When we think of iconic game weapons, these are the top 20 that come to mind."
You forgot one and it's a doozy. The weapon is kindness in undertale. :) defeats countless enemies.
Polygon: "To get back to the way Ocarina made us feel, it was necessary to reject almost everything about it."
I generally agree with the author here. However, if I had to point out a single game as the 'anti-Breath of the Wild,' that would be Majora's Mask. Pretty much everything in that game is interconnected, relies on something that the player must have done previously, is timed, and can be considered a puzzle in itself.
but still considered the best of the seties.
i would have liked botw to be more like ocarina.
25 years from today whatever Zelda is out people would too be looking fondly at Breath of the Wild.
Ah the more simple times of the 2020s.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time debuted 25 years ago, forever changing the face of video games and becoming a legend of its own.
I used a guide to beat part of it but some of the rest myself, still enjoyed it regardless. Too bad they didn't stick with this kind of gameplay for the rest of the series as I would prefer it over what they're doing now.
A definitive moment in video game history. Played it countless times, and Zelda was the best reason to own an N64.
I played through OoT so many times on the 64, then I bought it on the 3DS before the Eshop shut down. I wish we could have a Zelda collection like we did for Mario, I still can't believe that never happened.
Greatest video game ever made Period!!! Especially for the time when it came out in 1998 it was revolutionary nobody had made a game like that at that time and it was mind blowing! Especially since it was the first 3D Zelda game and going from mosy 2d and side scrolling games and going to a 3D world was crazy and it's something ppl nowadays don't get and take for granted cause everything now is big 3D worlds and they don't realize the insane impact Ocarina Of Time had in 1998! I was 14 and went to Walmart the day it came out and got the gold limited edition copy and I remember turning it on the first time and it changed my life!! And of course if u play it now for the first time it's not gonna have the same impact that it had in 1998 but it's always been my favorite game of all time and it's the GOAT for sure!
