    This was the game. I loved it. Me and my little brother played this game over and over it was so fun. The only dungeon I hate is the water temple but it makes sense as a temple.

    The game is amazing but it does NOT compare to other great games that are scored similarly. The game has aged poorly but at the time it was good. I do not have nostalgia for this game and that is why I'm rating it at only an 8. If you want to play this game at it's best then play the 3DS version.

    I still fondly remember opening a christmas present and finding Ocarina of Time inside, some 20-ish years ago (I think it was 1998). It is one of my greatest memories, and when I started playing the game I was put in a state of awe and complete disbelief. I was Link - in 3D. What a time to be alive.

    Ocarina of time is video game. That much must be said before the rest of this review, because of the almost insane amount of discussion this game has.

People judge this game not on the game itself, but the reception it’s garnered. With that said, I think Ocarina of time is a very good game. It has one of the best paced stories in any game I‘ve played. Not the best story, but the best pacing. You don‘t even really notice how the story progressively gets darker and darker until about halfway through the game. But it all feels natural and makes sense in the world. Speaking of, the world is a mixed match of quality. Some locations, like the peaceful Kakoriko village and Hyrule Castle Town are great locations. Full of things to do, PCs to talk to, and great music. But some locations, like Hyrule field, are empty plains, filled with nothing except a few holes in the ground with 20 in game dollars or something. I‘m sure it was great for the time, but today, it doesn’t hold up as nearly as it once did. Just like the gameplay. Gameplay takes some getting used to, with janky camera control, aiming, and jumping, but once you get used to it, it works fine. The levels, or dungeons are all masterpieces, (at least they all are on the 3DS) and are easily the best parts for me. They all have a very strong atmosphere filled to the brim with amazing puzzles and enemies to conquer.
    I love Ocarina of Time, and I think that it is one of the games any gamer has to play, but it‘s not perfect. I give it an 8/10 for one of the best paced stories of growing up, beautiful music, awe inspiring dungeons, but have to doc it some points for barren empty hubs, and clunky controls.    … Expand

    Ocarina of Time is arguably the best Zelda game of all time and there's a HUGE argument to be made for best 64 game and even best Nintendo game.

    Great graphics, awesome story and great controls. This is an adventure on N64 that is not one to miss out on! I'm not even a fan of the franchise but this game is a gem.

    Yeah, this game is heavily overrated. It does have many flaws, and has aged quite a bit, but that doesn’t stop it from being a timeless classic that everyone can get around.

I have not yet found a game that entertains me so much, I think it is because I will not be able to play them the same, that is, I will not be able to play it as a small child who for the first time tries to play a video game. I played the remastering, that was not done to me uncomfortable gameplay. Although I know that on the Nintendo 64, it laid the foundations of how a 3D game should be made and in 3 people (in the first person they were settled by a man named Gordon Freeman). The design of areas is what stands out the most, they are works of art. The music in each place is very good, and if you have headphones, it is immersive. At first I said that I give it a 9.9, why? You will say, simple, the story seems weak to me, however it is not bad (it is better than BOTW), the Zelda saga has games with a better story, for example: The Legend Of Zelda: Twighlit Princess, The Legend Of Zelda: A Link to the past, and The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It's just for that reason that my 10 is not earned, if I look at it objectively it is clear. Something I want to mention is the exploration that the game offers, and that is something that seems super important to me if your game is not open world. What do I mean about exploration? Well, I mean the secrets that each area you visit offers you, that you didn't even see a passageway that led to a piece of heart, etc. Games like BioShock perfected this with an element called suspense. Well, to finish this one, which is my first review, I wanted to say that if you don't care about graphics, this game is 100/100 recommended.… Expand

I feel that the overworld just hasn't aged well. I bet it was good in 1998, but now I have no desire to explore it. I think that the worst thing in the game is the Water Temple. Everyone who has played it knows just how bad it is. It's very confusing, and frustrating and it's one of those things that makes you want to rip out the hears of your very head. Although the overworld and Water Temple aren't that great it is still an amazing game. I can definitely live with Ocarina of Time being called the best game ever.… Expand

Every place, every dungeon has a different atmosphere. Combat mechanics are a lot of fun. Boss battles are good and creative. Various side quests and small side stories to do in the open world. Switching between the two times added a difference to the game.
    But there are two parts I don't like;
    1_) Water Tample: Constantly changing items and backtracking is very tiring.
    2_) Some solutions are not clear: You don't know what to do for hours when Navi's help doesn't help either. In some places I had to seek help from the forums for a solution. Especially in the first quarter of the game, the game is not new player friendly. In some puzzles, you may not know what to do.

    Прошел игру в 2022, играется довольно интересно, несмотря на то, что игра выглядит детской, тупил и не знал что делать довольно часто.
    Графика сносная, как и управление.
    Ну а музыка шикарна, хочется слушать и слушать. До этого не в одну часть серии не играл, так что знакомство довольно приятное.    Прошел игру в 2022, играется довольно интересно, несмотря на то, что игра выглядит детской, тупил и не знал что делать довольно часто.

    The best video game of all times. Its history is just amazing, because it didn't just change the presentation of story-telling of video games, but also the game play (for its time). Besides, it's a challenging game that requires the complete attention of the user in order to complete it at 100%, as well as skills.

Besides, it's a challenging game that requires the complete attention of the user in order to complete it at 100%, as well as skills. Nevertheless, it is also enough simple for the easy users if you just focus on the main tasks. Without doubt, this game possesses the best music, not just compared with games with same date releases, but also with any game of the present. Graphics might not be good today, but for its time they were just revolutionary. Even with those graphics, Ocarina of time does not lose nothing of its essence at all.… Expand

    Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is one of the best games in the series and in the world. but however for 2020 the schedule is not very good but tolerable. if you have a choice, it is better to play the remake on the nintendo 3ds. in the remake and the graphics are better
