>Legend of Zelda
>Ocarina of Time
>Breath of the Wild
Three titles that defined genres and influenced decades of game design.
All are part of single series
Kinda amazing, when you think about it
>>
What should the "essential traversal kit" look like in the next game?
>>
>>720823889
Did they really influence anything or is that just a generic platitude some people say with no real connecting thread because they know if they didn't it would upset millions of annoying fanboys to the point it would hurt their business?
>>
>>
>>720827325
Yes
Both gta3(and so are all following games) and dark souls were famously influenced by oot
>>
>>720827767
But how exactly? I can't think of a single thing in GTA3 that's like Zelda.
>>
>>720823889
Top tier masterpieces. Besides Tears these 3 are the best. Even Zelda 1 is still good to go back to today.
>>
>>720827325
There are an actual shitload of game designers that cite OOT as a direct influence. Not sure about the others but OOT legitimately has had a massive impact on 3D games.

Is that a bait? The most obvious one, no?
>>
>>720823889
You know it's always going to be a shit thread when this bot >>720827451
shows up.
>>
>>720823889
>BotW
The game just copied most of what the industry was doing in the 2010s anyway and none of what it did differently was incorporated by any other game.
The only influence it left was on the smattering of knockoffs in its immediate wake, Genshit had more of a lasting impact by normalizing Gacha again.
>>
>>720828541
Genshin itself was inspired by botw
>>
>>720828541
If all it did was copy then how can you recognise genshin as a copy of it instead of a copy of "what most of the industry did in the 2010s"?

Also hourly reminder to myself shill.

Hourly reminder to kys
>>
>>720828707
Because it additionally makes the effort to copy more surface level details and watered down versions of the things that BotW did.
I didn't say that it didn't do anything differently, just that what it did differently wasn't used by anything other than clones.
>>
>>720823889
>defined genres
WTF does that even mean? Zelda did it first therefore Zelda is better? Zelda didn't invent the concept of non-linearity.
>influenced decades
A popular game getting copied by hundreds of mediocre developers does not increase it's value, I'm not saying the game is bad but that's the truth.
>>
>>720829616
>ust that what it did differently wasn't used by anything other than clones.
>ER is now botw clone, because they tried to copy it design philosophy(fun exploration and always seeing objects you would want to check), before giving up after limgrave
Wow, that's harsh
Especially when even fucking nightreign just went, with "yeah, Nintendo were right about how world should be designed to keep players interested", let's do something similar in our BR shit
>>
>>720829789
...or, you never even played them so you wouldn't know just how much they influenced...
>>
>>720829616
Not reading, play the game lying demon shill. And of course, kill yourself.

Hot take: Ocarina of Time was more influential on 3D video games than Super Mario 64 was.

Also, devs never tried hide the fact, that oot literally popularized 3d games, and many teams were forced to move on from 2d ones, because they looked pathetic in comparison
