| Not because of gameplay, but because of the story. It was the decision maker for all of the games in the series and it is magnificent. The Hero of Time will forever live in my heart and soul, even in the form of the Hero's Spirit. May all of Hyrule bless your soul, Link. No matter what, you and Zelda can put a stop to Ganon. I will put myself up front to make sure that this series doesn't end and make sure that Shigeru Miyamoto watches over it from the headquarters of Nintendo of Japan to the Sacred Realm. |

>Praising a Zelda game for its compelling narrative. ZELDA HAS NO STORY. IT'S SO PREDICTABLE, AND IT'S ESSENTIALLY LINK GETTING STUFF TO SAVE SOME DAMSEL IN DISTRESS (INB4 Anita Sarkeesian).
I still enjoy the gameplay mechanics, as they're very intelligently designed, and the puzzles always make me scratch my head. |

"GRAPHIX R EVERYTHING"
every game after it had a better story
the zora, deku, goron, and gerudo races are given no real backstory
the gerudo are the only elaborated race because of ganondorf |

@qlip, All of the stories are connected and Ocarina of Time was the game that made all of the other stories happen. It was because of the Hero of Time that The Legend of Zelda is what it is today. Granted, Skyward Sword happened first and those were the second reincarnations of Link and Zelda. |

"Says the person that has never read the official Hyrule Historia."
the "official" timeline given in Hyrule Historia is wrong
notice how ganon was pierced in the head in ocarina of time, while in twilight princess, ganondorf is pierced in the stomach |

even if ocarina of time didn't happen, the spirit of demise would carry to another person
someone after skyward must have pulled the master sword, otherwise ocarina of time wouldn't have happened |

| The official timeline is so contrived. Nintendo titles have never been narrative-driven, minus Metroid. It's always been about the gameplay, and even Metroid uses gameplay as a form of storytelling, instead of using long-winded pieces of exposition dialogue like most Zelda games. |

@Qliphoth, The Hero of Time, Link from Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask is the Hero's Shade in Twilight Princess. He can't pass on because he was full of pain and regrets from losing his innocence. Remember the finishing blow that Link used on Ganon in Ocarina of Time? He taught his reincarnation in Twilight Princess that. That's why Link pierced Ganon in the stomach. The Hero of Time could finally pass on having his regrets lifted. |

you misunderstood. the link from ocarina of time pierced ganon's head
in twilight princess, ganondorf is shown with a sword pierced in his abdomen
consistency? no |

Ever heard of Half Life Series? Or anything made by valve.
I am sorry but once you mention Valve you argument is instantly invalid. |

personally i find that half life was amazing at the time, it just doesn't hold up very well today
not saying it's a bad game, im just saying it doesn't hold up very well next to stuff the industry's making now |
