The Master Sword, the Triforce, Ganondorf's rise to power, the presence of the Sages, the rise of the Hero of Time and the mysterious timeline split are all widely discussed and debated topics in the Zelda universe, and Ocarina of Time is mostly responsible for those discussions. Furthermore, the proposed timeline from the Hyrule Historia book suggests that there is in fact a third line of history spanning from Ocarina of Time, as opposed to the assumed two lines coming from the child and adult endings. The lore of Ocarina of Time is delicate as it has connections to many other titles in the Legend of Zelda series, and so it is imperative that we all have a clear understanding of the history it presents, as well as all the game's story and themes, in order to have a strong grasp on the lore of Hyrule throughout the series in its entirety.
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.
