ALttP is overrated, but not nearly as overrated as Majora's Mask, let alone Link's Awakening.

I don't understand how ALttP is overrated outside of people not liking it cause it wasn't their first 2D Zelda or something.

Like the only other 2D Zelda I think that was equal or better was A Link Between Worlds.

I can understand the argument for every other Zelda being overrated, but I just don't get it with ALttP.

God damn, this topic is full of garbage opinions. Here guys, please refer to this objective ranking of LoZ games:

GOAT:
BotW
OoT
LttP

Great:
LoZ
AoL
LA

Good:
WW
TP

Bad:
MM
OoX
MC

Unplayable garbage:
PH
ST
SS

The only one that's really overrated is MM, considering it's the only objectively bad entry that also has an absurdly disproportionate number of people calling it the best in the series.

Wrong. It won game of the decade for a decade it wasn't even a part of. It consistently hangs at the top of popularity polls everywhere else. People think that just because their friends when they were 8 preferred OoT, that MM is some underrated masterpiece, when it's always been popular.

LA is the poster child of nostalgia bias though. Either Oracle game alone is 100x better, let alone a linked playthrough. But a great deal of people have LA as their number 1 Zelda game, because they remember playing it on long car rides as children.

I liked that it was easy to figure out. It had a literal map to show you where to go next and I don't remember ever getting stuck in a dungeon.

These are the things I dislike about the Zelda series as a whole. I'm not good at puzzles and I hate wandering around, so a game like ALttP was perfect for me.

Of course, OoS was my very favorite.

The Legend of Zelda, hailed as a classic, one of the greatest, was basically unplayable if you didn't have the right copy of Nintendo Power (no internet back then)

Link to the Past established the formula that the series stuck to for years, for better and for worse.

Ocarina of Time was just LttP3D, with a much smaller inventory and terrible level designs.

Majora's Mask was hailed as a masterpiece for years, a game that involves getting stuck in a time loop and playing through the same events over and over again.

Wind Waker was panned for being ugly, then hailed as a visual masterpiece, then panned again when people got over the graphics and realized it was just OoT all over again.

Twilight Princess was panned for being generic and gimmicky, then hailed as the high fantasy Zelda people said they wanted for years, then it became "At least it's not Skyward Sword"

Skyward Sword was hated form day one and still considered the worst of the franchise. Naturally it's one of the ones I like and I'm pretty sure most of the hate comes from the fact that it screwed up everyone's timeline.

Breath of the Wild is hailed as something new and original, despite being Assassin's Creed with Link patched in and survival/crafting elements from Ark.

Basically Zelda fans are bat-shit crazy and have no idea what they want or like. The games for the most part are pretty good as long as you don't marathon them like a series because then you realize it's pretty much all the same anyway.

They should be taken as what they are, tbh.

They'll obviously be missing the context of the game but on the other hand they offer a perspective of their own. It's a mistake to discard thoughts and opinions that really might be well-formed on grounds that the perspective differs from yours.

In other words, even if they don't get the context, they also don't suffer from nostalgia goggles.

The level design thing is debatable, but the fact that there are fewer inventory items in OoT is a strength, not a weakness.

Ya know, this was mostly just a joke take topic on the "Link's Awakening is the most underrated", but there was a point at which I had played SO MUCH LttP and Graal Online (Zelda Online) that I just got bored of LttP. I still think it's overrated to some degree and the Oracles are better, but I'd be wrong to not admit how much positive influence it had on Zelda games and how epic it is. It's weird that they've never taken LttP and just improved on it and it's grand adventure style, but I think LBW as pretty damn good.

I mean those games aren't remotely that fundamentally different for the gap to be that wide but ok


What? OoT and MM are pretty wildly different games. Literally the only things they have in common are character models, combat mechanics, and the existence of dungeons.

And the OoX games are basically cheap knock-offs of LA with some of the worst dungeons in the series, while LA holds the monopoly on the best dungeons of the 2D games.

Not that the games are bad but it's a toss up between OoT and BotW. One did well for the era but there's lots of games these days that do things better.

BotW might lose some steam in the next year or so and people will be like "yeah, it's solid but all these perfect scores are odd". Notice how most of the 10's are from launch?

I've barely set BotW down, and although it was a very VERY well made game, I just don't think it's a contender for the best Zelda of all time. Way too many flaws.
