    Ocarina of Time. I mean, its good. But so many people act like its the best video game of all time. Its like barely top 5 Zelda game imo let alone the best game full stop

    I’m ready for the downvotes

      You’re getting one upvote from me.
      I also fully agree with everything said in brentalfloss’ song
      and I played it when it came out.

      Worst thing about the game was the owl that kept the game from being an open world.

      It was a step back from Mario64 and it came out something like 2 years later.
      Majora’s mask was the expectation. Ocarina of Time was what I got.

      This is a reasonable take, though I don’t feel the same way.

      OoT felt like an open world game at a time when those largely didn’t exist (some did, but not really on console). The gameplay was still somewhat linear, but it felt like there was a lot of freedom compared to a lot of other games at the time. As a kid, I spent hours just exploring. I’m guessing this has something to do with its popularity at the time.
