Just beat it. It holds up extremely well and is a really solid game.

Is it hated? It's consistently at the top of best game lists, and peoples favorite game lists who grew up with it.

Unironically even tho its much easier than both the first 2 games, its too hard for zoom zooms. Which is hilarious because BOTW trannies think that botw is the pinnacle of difficulty. When the game first came out and criticisms were flying around from the old fans their first decryment of the criticism was that ppl were being filtered. Which is hilarious because its not a hard game. opposite infact.

i think it sort of became a recent meme to say its actually bad or overrated.

which is absurd of course. It's an all time GOAT, which's most glaring fault is to be so undeniably good that eventually terminally ill contrarians would pick it to try and find microscopic flaws in order to make content for their dying youtube channels. It goes nowhere as its one of those genuinely incredible games that is just too easy to enjoy.

I'm guessing that people don't like the game because its too "cryptic", to me that just says the brainrot generation is literally incapable of cognitive reasoning or problem solving. Being too cryptic is something you can say about plenty games from this era, and this is one is tame by comparison. In the age of the internet guides are everywhere. You no longer have to learn from the grapevine of people in real life. You can make a reasonable argument that if the game doesn't give enough information inside the game itself on how to progress that is bad game design.

I played the game when the SNES was the current system and had issues with it back then. And still do today. So I wouldn't say it's perfect. But I also don't say it's bad. It's better than any Zelda game after Ocarina.

i have trouble thinking of other games that are as good as alttp, let alone from that era.

its probably not perfect, but it does many things amazingly well and there arent many similar games to pin it against that would give a better experience at what it tries to achieve.

It's going to be based on your experiences and opinion. I think Zelda 1 and Awakening are better. And I even like Zelda 2 more, though it has more flaws. But that's because 2D Action/Platformers are my favorite genre. Likewise, Metroid II and Super are examples of games I like more than LttP. Along with many others. But I try not to compare games from vastly different genres and series.

Point is, I can think of many games I like more than LttP. But that doesn't mean I hate LttP. It's way better than most other games. And better than any Zelda after Ocarina.

Yeah, and it hasn't mattered until recently. But it matters now because there's been a sudden massive upsurge of mental illness, general contrarianism, and extreme shit taste (see: gachafags) on this board.

>actually sincere opinion

i also enjoy more Super metroid at this point. as far as zelda goes, its also not my personal favourite, but it has too few flaws, no "that part" or whatsoever, a very fun and big map to explore and the progression was so good thst Oot and later zelda games copied it forever.

comparatively, the atmosphere and universe is not as remotely interesting as Oot, Link's awakening and most later entries, so it's not the one world i choose to go back to often. but if enough time passes that i forget the puzzles and events, its a damn good time.

By today's standard, and Zelda standards (OoT, TP, BotW) it feels incredibly basic, i'm not gonna lie. It holds up as a "fun game" but it feels super generic as a universe by this point, until you get the Triforce at the end. That was the moment I felt that "Zelda Magic" because I thought even the final Ganon fight was pretty shit.

Zelda 2 was a huge downgrade in basically every way. Shitty jarpiggy grinding RPG system, worse combat and hitboxes, worse dungeon design, worse overworld, more obtuse progression, poor difficulty balance, etc.

Wrong.

I love Zelda 2. But it's a flawed game that needs a remake. Much like Castlevania 2 or Dragon Quest 2. There's a reason people joke about the sequel curse on NES. Which of course isn't a curse. It was just at the time, developers felt like they had to do something massively different in sequels. Then usually returned to form in the third game.

Ever since BotW came out there's been a lot of hate towards earlier titles because the only way zoomers know how to defend something they like is by attempting to tear down something popular from the past.
