Default Re: Over/Under: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time

I'm not stating it's a bad game. I like it. I quite enjoyed it.

I'm just saying the only reason it's so good [to us] is because we grew up not playing 3D Zelda games, and this was our first experience with Link in 3D.

Both games' fanbases grew exponentially with their 3D games.
That was my point. What made those (the first games to have 3D) better than the previous, was the fact they were in 3D, which gave them an undoubted advantage when being compared, or even reviewed - because they were the first 3D games.

They didn't really capitalize on nostalgia or anything.
Again, you misunderstood. I never said anyone was capitalizing on nostalgia. I was saying the reason people around our age think so highly of games like FFVII and OoT was because they were the first 3D games of their respective series. They weren't able to be compared to the previous games because the previous games were nothing alike aside from story, rough setting and all the typical Zelda (or FFVII) formula-type things.

It would be like if Zelda came out in VR [that looked good for the time it was released], you wouldn't be able to easily compare it to the previous games, because they'd be nothing alike aside from story, setting etc.
