    Undoubtedly one of the best games of all time. This game is widely regarded as not only the best Zelda game, but the best game ever made in general (although Majora's mask trumps this in my opinion) and for a damn good reason.

The main plot of this game is probably the best one I've ever witnessed in a video game. It is very well made, with hidden secrets all across the game that are still being discovered to this day. Not to mention that the dungeons in this game are undisputedly the best dungeons in any Zelda game. In this aspect it's not even close. Dudongo's cavern, Forest temple, Fire temple, Shadow temple and Spirit Temple are all beyond amazing. Out of all the Zelda games that I have played, the only one that pontentially ranks up to this caliber is the Stone Tower temple from Majora's Mask.
    The hype surrounding this game is as real as it comes.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Nintendo basically started and stabilised norms on video games the way we know nowadays, period. But they didn’t know that the tendency of games having a deeper meaning and lore, would be something that fans would want and appreciate. Luckily, and I meant it, the history in OoT enable the Zelda team to create and fit all Zelda games in a (quite messy) timeline. OoT has a branch where Link coming back from the future creating the child timeline, the branch that he left behind the adult timeline, and finally the one where Le loses to Ganondorf, the downfall timeline. Which was a genius move to use OoT as fork.
    OoT created and break a lot of boundaries in the game world, have an amazing story, intriguing, by giving backstories to most of npcs, secrets, it’s fun, and entertaining. 11/10

    This game is just amazing, I've played it on my childhood and I loved it, nowadays I bought a n64 just to be able to play it again and enjoy the temples/dungeon and soundtrack like the first time I played it as a child. If you have the opportunity to play it you should not miss it.

    I am NOT one of those tasteless clowns who believe that games should be rated for "how well they aged" and how good they are in today's market. Is the Mona Lisa any less a classic just because it wouldn't hold up to the standards of modern pieces? Would you give your grandmother a 2/10 simply because she is old? No. That would most likely be poor judgement.

Having been able to play it when it first came out, I can attest to how incredible it was. There wasn’t (and arguably still isn’t) anything quite like it. I will admit, if you hadn't played it when it was relevant, it may be slightly inaccessible for you now. BUT, you may wish to thank Ocarina of Time for the modern gameplay mechanics/environments/stories/etc. that you take for granted now - because it certainly (whether you'd like to believe so or not) paved the way for all of them. Now, f*** off. Expand

    Ocarina of time was a great game that implemented a lot of new things to the genre, and inspired beauties like Dark souls or Witcher 3, for all those who say "bad graphics" or "bad controls" it was 1998, it was an innovation for those Times and bad controls, keep in mind that the Nintendo 64 controller was not the best, do not take into account the joy-con or the Nintendo Switch proOcarina of time was a great game that implemented a lot of new things to the genre, and inspired beauties like Dark souls or Witcher 3, for all those who say "bad graphics" or "bad controls" it was 1998, it was an innovation for those Times and bad controls, keep in mind that the Nintendo 64 controller was not the best, do not take into account the joy-con or the Nintendo Switch pro controller.
    Added "Z-Targetting" or targeting enemies, which was a great implementation of the genre (for those who say there isn't!)
    and apart from "the temple of the water here and the temple of the water there" yes, it is a bad temple. But you know? The game has other good aspects. The story and character design is good, with a lot of races.
    And it is still improved with the 3ds remake, which improves the graphics and controls, making the water temple and the damn balloon game better for this version (Some put a 2 or a 0 for the balloon minigame, Oh my!)
    In my opinion, a true art that any fan of video games should play at least 1 time. And in my opinion, it has not aged badly at all, it is still pleasant to play, and well, if the controls or graphics bother you a lot, you can play the 3ds remake! Let nothing stop you wanting to play this masterpiece.

    First of all, play this on the 3ds. The only thing it adds is boss rush, and it makes the water temple a LOT better, which is the only bad part of the entire game. After playing the water temple on oot 3d, its literally my favorite dungeon. But this is my second favorite game of all time, buy it.

Сюжет хоть иВ этом году окарине времени исполняется 25 лет. Современному игроку она крышу может и не снесёт, однако всё же трудно переоценить её влияние на индустрию. Тогда в 98-ом, тут уже была реализована смена дня и ночи в 3d, введена функция захвата цели одной кнопкой, и конечно была уже лошадь, вызываемая по свистку, которая станет позже обязательным атрибутом многих открытых миров. Сюжет хоть и был довольно простой, но сопровождался обилием кинематографических вставочек на движке игры. Особенно порадовала демонстрация эмоций персонажей через сменяющие друг друга модельки лиц, для тех времён вполне неплохо. Графика хоть в целом и слабенька, но высокое внимание к деталям это дело компенсирует сполна.

    Трудно представить, насколько круто окарина времени воспринималась тогда, если даже сейчас она неплохо играется, разве что управление и камера могут показаться неудобными, но это мелочи. У нас тут небольшой, зато компактный мир, где на каждом шагу либо секретка, либо мини игра. Линк постоянно приобретает всё новые и новые инструменты, от грамотного использования которых и зависит продвижение дальше, так что всё завязано на внимательности и смекалки игрока, а не на прокачке чего либо. Можно конечно качать здоровье через поиск секретных сердечек, но это не более чем дополнительные права на ошибку. В общем, образцовая игра от нинтендо и довольно знаковая для индустрии в целом.

    Absolute masterpiece. Don't even need to say anything else.

    Alright now seriously, this game is just amazing. The story is interesting, the graphics aren't very good but the Nintendo 64 isn't that powerful so that doesn't count as a bad thing about the game, the dungeons are great and well designed (that counts the water temple as well), and the gameplay isn't as bad as everyone else

This was the first 3D Zelda game and they somehow got everything right. The music... even the soundtrack is a masterpiece on its own. I used prefer Majora's Mask over Ocarina of Time, but I changed my mind when I played this a few months ago. Everyone keeps comparing this to BotW, but if it wasn't because of this game, BotW wouldn't even exist. This game created the 3D Zelda gameplay we all know and love. If you are going to complain about the graphics, then play Ocarina of Time 3D and stop complaining about it. I think that's all I have to say. You should definetly play this. Even today I don't even know what makes it so special and addicting, and I've played it 3 times by now.

    It's the greatest masterpiece ever, not just for taking us to unknown places with his history and revolutionary gameplay, but with his soul itself, it's different from anything you ever play, it feels like something unexpected and familiar at the same time. For me, and a lot of people around the world, we can say this is just perfect, it's built different, there are no words to explain it

    Graphics have only one objective: Allow you to see. If you can understand what is happening, why is happening and what caused it, then the visuals have succeded. Photo-realistic graphics don't matter if you can't communicate a scene through it. I don't see the graphics in Ocarina as bad, they are like nature. It eventually evolved into something better, and it has nothing to blame for being ugly now.

    (But do play on the 3ds if you're really bad at aiming with analog)

    This is a very good game, but this game is a bit overrated. At the time, of course, this game was revolutionary, but I didn't play this at the time, so I'm not reviewing it like I did. Looking at it compared to games now, however, it's still a very solid and fun game. The greatest game of all time, though? I would have to disagree.

    It is a solid game and still holds up quite well.

    I played oot on the switch so there could have been some controls that maybe were better on the N64 but I didn't encounter any issues really. For example the water temple is tedious because of the switching in your inventory with the iron boots. Jabu Jabu's belly was also an annoying dungeon 'cuz you had to carry princess Ruto

    Jabu Jabu's belly was also an annoying dungeon 'cuz you had to carry princess Ruto around.
    I generally don't really enjoy Zelda dungeons that much, they are sometimes confusing and difficult or it is not clear what you have to do to progress the game.

    The day night cycle is a little on the short side which is just a nuisance (yes the song of the sun helps but it is still annoying to have to play it every 2 and a half minutes.

    The side quest for the Biggoron sword is difficult with the timed delivery quests, but worth it in the end.

    The time travel mechanic is unique but I would've loved to see it be explored more like in the spirit temple where you do half as a child and the other half as an adult.

    I had to look up a bunch of stuff like for example how am I supposed to know that you can only enter the well as a child or how do I know that you have to drop a fish in front of Jabu Jabu.
    I feel like it was normal to not know what to do in older games the first Zelda has this very much, but it is just annoying that i had to do the water temple while having a tutorial open.

    I do love the story in this game and the characters like Zelda, Sheik and Ganondorf of course.

    This game is very much the basis of other 3D Zelda games and I loved finding stuff that was referenced from this game.

    The music for the game was fantastic: Hyrule field and Gerudo desert being the most iconic.

    The wallet mechanic that was introduced in this game I absolutely despise because if i would collect rupees my wallet was immediately full even with the giants wallet there was just nothing to do with your rupees except for buying the occasional fairy or arrows.

    The bosses were original but many didn't have a second phase or multiple attacks which is understandable for a game made in 1998.

    Oh and than you have Ganons castle, from the point you beat the last the dungeon the game starts to become really fun.
    The 6 barriers that had to be broken was an actually fun dungeon and the climb to the top was very atmospheric and exciting, and then there is Ganon...
    playing his own theme song! And him turning around throwing his cape is the most epic thing.
    I absolutely love Ganons character in this game just how he is delivered, this is something botw misses in my opinion.

    It is a good game but just doesn't hold up to botw for instance.
    It shouldn't be a fair comparison between oot and botw but it is very close.
    Though for me botw is better game even though many people swear by ocarina of time as best game of ever made.

    The player will be drawn into the Zelda fantasy world from the moment the opening sequence bursts onto the screen, and the game won't let go-not even after finishing the quest.
