The Legend of Zelda is one of the most popular series in the history of gaming and it therefore doesn’t give a f**k to have an entire article just for itself, in list format.
Some of Link’s most “helpful” allies, and even himself, actually end up making the sh*t hit the fan, by making things worse than they already were...
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."
Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.
Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
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."
The feeling this game gave me the first time i had my hands on it is indescribable.. i still get the chill from that day..
botw is like a spin off of the series.. it’s fun but with many flaws and the most important which is Zelda formula isn’t there..
I can't even remember how many times I played through OoT, I finished that game, and collected everything so many times.
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.
I lol'd
lol this is hilarious and very true
I couldn't have said it better myself
Yeah like Link.......... lol JK
I'm surprised Tael and Tatl aren't on that list. They would have made a good #1, being directly responsible for all the crap in Majora's Mask.
And the #1 the guy did pick... awful. Didn't think that one through at all. Yeah, Link and Zelda helped Gannon into the Sacred Realm... but what would have happened if they had done nothing? What, ya' think Gannondorf would have given up and gone home?
No. He would have killed off all of the Gorons and Zoras and everyone else a LOT sooner, beyond those that, you know, would have already died due to not being saved by Link.
Here's a handy bit of advice... if you're ever in an argument and you think the best course of action is to "do nothing." If you're ever at a point where you think inaction is better than action...
Please.
Remember Neville Chamberlain.
