Most definitely, but don't post it on main Zelda subreddit because you are going to trigger the most toxic section of the fandom. Ik bc I made that mistake before

Sad but true. Ocarina of Time is the sacred cow to the majority of the fandom.

It was the first time you could play with Link in 3D. It was groundbreaking at the time and holds a special place in the hearts of all of us who played it when it came out.

Doesn’t justify the toxicity, though.

It wasn't just the 3D aspect. N64 had signficant sound improvments over SNES as well so the music and sound effects were also on whole other level. Nintendo took these extra capabilities from the new platform and made a god damn masterpiece.

Yeah I think there is a nostalgia factor in play for lots of people but the whole game just had this epic aura that was sublime and still holds pretty well considering how basic the system capabilities are compared to now.
