I went back and played it before the remake comes out. Do people seriously think it held up? it's plagued with issues that modern games have completely solved.
You were supposed to do Fire Temple first then Forest Temple and save the Gerudo before you save Impa.
>>750236323blast!
>>750236114Solved like what? Only high IQ chads (I'm vomiting) know that old games are strictly better than new ones. And you know what anons? Let's hug. Let's get out all our frustrations. Deep down we all know the world isn't meant for fighting. It's meant for supporting each other because we are truly all we have in this world. Help someone out who needs it. Ask how someone is doing. Because these are the instincts ingrained within us. Back when every expression of human behavior was beautiful and sacred. Did I mention that all of you are my brothers (and any femanons lurking, your are my sisters!) May the gods bless us in our paths.
>>750236114It literally invented the modern 3d action adventure game. There are better bands than the Beatles too but it doesn't remove their influence.
>>750236114>plagued with issues that modern games have completely solved.like?
>>750236114>it's plagued with issues that modern games have completely solved.Such as?
you did not play it on original hardwareemulator is not the same experienceneither is recomp or decomp
>>750236114To this day, OOT is the second best game ever made (BOTW is the best one, MM is the third one).
>>750236412>old games are strictly better than new oneskek
>>750236412Picrel is what I wish I looked like btw, or something similar. I fucking wish I was a woman.
>>750236492Diversity and inclusion.
>>750236546>the game is so much better when it hitches pausing to switch items>you don't understand how great it is that the framerate drops to single digits when you kill a stalfos???
>>750236114Yes, it held up. It doesn't have "issues," you just played it with the mindset of "Old game = outdated and bad" so you didn't appreciate it properly.And no, getting stuck on an obtuse puzzle isn't an "issue," it's an intentional part of the game that's supposed to work your brain for a while. I remember getting stuck on trying to figure out how to enter Jabu-Jabu for many hours as a kid, and actually figuring it out was exciting and cool.
>>750236604>ooh the 240p 15fps im nauseous
>>750236460If OOT is the Beatles of games, what’s the Velvet Underground?
>before the remake comes outA remake already came out.
>>750236805That's a remaster not a remake, dumbo
>>750236723>you just played it with a mindsetThat's just pure copium, anon. You hope and you wish that it's just a mentality problem. It's just not though lmao.
>>750237162It must be a mentality problem, because almost everyone else who plays Ocarina thinks it's awesome. Unless you're allergic to N64 graphics.
>>750237092Just like Final Fantasy VII, huh?
OOT is a 5/10 game (I'm being generous, because if I say 4/10, Nintendo fans will immediately think I'm trolling).
>>750236114>Do people seriously think it held up?lol noTotK blows it out of the water, easily.
>>750237424It's 8/10 IMO. I just wish the combat was harder/faster and more of the story was told with actual scenes instead of exposition dumps.
>>750237542>exposition dumps.First time around, it’s fine. Subsequent playthrough? Nah. I can agree with 8 and it’s probably one of my top 3 games ever despite not even generally liking Nintendo (I haven’t played a single Nintendo game in nearly 20 years — Wii Sports — ).>>750237424What makes it a 5 in your eyes then? There are a lot of flaws definitely but I think its strengths save it from anything lower than a 7
>>750237360They're free to think it's awesome, whatever floats your boat.
>>750237542NTA, but come on it's a 7>>750237809It doesn't have analog camera, it runs at 240p resolution and average 20fps, there's hitching when you pause the game, saving quitting and resuming doesn't retain your position in the game, most puzzles involve block pushing or just shooting a switch, there's unskippable cutscenes every 30 seconds, the lock on bounces to enemies you dont intend it to, there's knee high fences you cannot vault over, there's inclines the horse refuses to move beyond, you have to play several songs and run back to the temple of time to transform between child and adult forms, rupees are completely worthless and seemingly the only reward you get for exploration, the dialogue options are redundant just forcing you to pick Yes, there's tons of things the game just doesn't explain, there's tons of things the game over explains, the map is useless, a lot of the only sidequests in the game are fetch quests, nonexistent swimming controls, arbitrary limitations between child and adult link items, the teleports between areas leave a lot to be desired, no faster movement mechanic for young link, the challenge is virtually nonexistent, there's a lot of backtracking for 100% completion, Navi gets stuck repeating the same info routinely, many items are just palette swaps or replacements with the same functionality, and there's no world building or character development.
>>750237410Not if you are talking about the remake.
>>750237886Do you mean the remaster?
>>750237883Well, yeah. You said it all. But that last point is kinda irrelevant methinks. Heavily flawed game; I still can’t help but love the beautiful mess.
>>750238020lol who the fuck even still talks about that overpriced DLC?
>>750237883You have some valid points here. There's one point I'd like to ask about, though:>you have to play several songs and run back to the temple of time to transform between child and adult formsAfter the Forest Temple, you unlock the Prelude of Light to conveniently return to the Temple of Time. What songs are you referring to here?
>>750236114It's way too easy and Navi was the proto yellow paint. But it was soulful.I also think the controls were really good. Interestingly, after I played it, I finally stopped overly relying on lock-on in souls games. I know it was for kids, but if the game was even slightly challenging it would have been even better.
First time beating OoT at 10yo, I beat the fire temple last. Don't @ me, because IDK how I managed it, but I definitely did. Fuck the fire temple. Fuck the Gorons. Fuck the Royals. And fuck the spider niggas.
>>750236723I noticed that a lot of modern gamers will immediately write a game bad and "boring" if they get stuck on puzzle.My issue with OoT is that the puzzles are too easy if anything. I liked the exploration and the parts where you were given barely any clues and needed to just explore the area. This sort of thing is common in OoT where you need to talk to random people and do random quest like events to figure out which one progresses the story. the later games largely took that out because they are catering to the nu-gamer who never wants to feel lost.
>>750240848>Don't @ meYeah you're a lying bitch. It's definitely possible to beat it second last, super late in the game, but you can't get to the Shadow Temple before beating it without glitching the game.
>>750242362Dis nigga dont plant beans
>>750238384you play prelude of light, run up to the pedestal, then play a warp song, and then run back to where you were, you have to do that every time
>>750236492Puzzles that aren't entirely focused around basic navigation of a simple 3d space
>be American millennial>live in cozy upper-middle class area>soccer mom buys you a Nintendo 64 because The 700 Club told her that PlayStation games have blood>parents can also afford you to buy the entire Rareware library>since you are rich and American, your family are also early adopters of the internet>lo and behold, everyone else online is also a rich American from a Nintendo 64 household>Ocarina group masturbation session ensues>The internet universally agrees that ReDeads are the scariest things ever invented because none of you ever played Silent Hill>Internet gaming culture is built upon the idea that everyone owned a Nintendo 64 and everyone agrees Ocarina of Time is unambiguously the best game ever made>Fast forward 20 years>Euros, Aussies, and working class Americans are now online>You find out that the Nintendo 64 absolutely fucking bombed outside of middle America and nobody gives a fuck about Ocarina of Time>Even in the US the N64 was massively outsold by the PS1, let alone abroad>Persecution complex ensues>"This can't be........did.....did I shit my pants over Wind Waker's graphics for nothing?">Start calling Ocarina underrated due to the fact that people who've played more than 1 fucking game don't think it's the best
>>750244562Lets be honest here, even in the modern open world era, Zelda games are still mostly about this. What do you think you're doing gliding around, climbing all those walls, and finding vantage points for exactly how to put a puzzle together? They never stopped being largely easy 3D logic shit.
>>750246187N64 fanboys really are delusional though. They'll constantly praise it as the greatest console ever when the thing has barely ten games on it actually worth playing
>>750236114playing it right nowstill greatonly nitpick i have is most of characters in the game only tell you the game controls.whether people enjoy that or not is up to them, i guess. it leaves much open to interpretation.
>>750246432>psxsnoy cope
>>750246187I literally grew up through the time you suggested and not only are you wrong, you are platinum wrong, you couldnt go anywhere without resident evil and silent hill memes, especially rapehead
