LTTP is the best Zelda game and I’m tired of pretending it’s not!

so genuine question, how many people on /v/ actually like old zelda games and lore, and how many have just decided they liked it all along despite not even having been born when they were out after they found out early game link was christian
it just seems like one of those cases where /v/ forms their opinions on something they neither like nor care about entirely based on what is socially desirable for them to think and feel on here

LTTP is one of the worst games in the series.

Define "old".
OoT and MM are still two of the greatest video games ever created.

Many such cases

I like the direction of the lore before SS and the style of game design if not always the games themselves before BOTW.

>>717171594
It's early stuff so it doesn't really make sense if you adhere to the retarded timeline dogshit they made up later, but Zelda 2's always been my favorite when it comes to lore. I like that it's so far the only one where Link fully won and got laid in the end.

I just think the setting and stories were far more interesting before Skyward Sword introduced sci-fi tech, infinite reincarnations, and Hylia to the series. You had a very fantastical series that didn't shy away from whimsy and a world of fairies. The role of the Triforce and thus the goddesses who made them were paramount, making these magical artifacts the cornerstone of change in the series rather than the off chance of three key people just happening to reincarnate. The games where the Triforce isnt all that important are especially unique and have the most creative adventures in the franchise (i.e., Link's Awakening, Majora's Mask, Four-Swords).

The modern games lean too hard into the sci-fi tech angle for me to really get invested in the setting, and the "1000+ year old ancient civilization with modern IRL tech" gimmick has been retooled since 2011; its gotten old and its not interesting anymore. I'm not asking for another OoT wannabe, but every Zelda game until SS managed to feel completely unique and distinct from each other in tone and setting while feeling like a classical fantasy, and the series just doesnt have that anymore.
Also, despite being "lol trains", Spirit Tracks has a more interesting world than the one depicted in BOTW & TOTK

I don't think anything about Zelda 2 conflicts with the timeline until you get all the way to Skyward Sword which introduces the fact that Link and Zelda are reincarnations of the same person every time too.

Oof

Link's gay pink hair was more annoying than the "HYAA! HAI!" sword-swinging sfx desu

Modern Zelda games all have to include modern tech because "good game design" according to Shiggy M is replicating experiences you've really had and everyone has grown up with the same fucking technology these days. A character who doesn't have a smartphone is deeply unrelatable to the average Zelda dev, so the world building revolves around finding an excuse for there to be a smartphone.
of course, the real problem is that apparently nobody managed to figure out WHY pulling from real experiences was good, except the people who didn't need to be taught in the first place.

But enough about OoS.

>>717180081
Skyward Sword making a permanent cycle of reincarnation also doesn't work with the whole "Ganon is permanently defeated" thing at the end

>>717171491 (OP)
It's really not
There's not much to do in the overworld which removes most of what males Zelda fun.
After you get through the castle, for the most part there is no 'puzzle' to solved. You're ust going to each dungeon in whatever order the game dictates. It's not like say, LA where you need each dungeon's tool to navigate in some form on the overworld

It's why outisde of getting the flippers (which I might add is tedious as fuck, bro just don't fall into the water yay), the overworld isn't really memorable. Plus most of the builds are utterly pointless too since there's rarely any useful NPCs

that said the combat is fucking shit and I vastly prefer any other 2d one post this

Go fuck yourself.. the sword gameplay (hitbox) is MUCH more inferior to Link's awakening.
That's just the start. The story, the music, the atmosphere, all that is also inferior to Link's awakening

The only game in the series that captured the perfect balance of exploration, world freedom, and a consistent yet interesting plot. It does everything and it does it perfectly. Breath of the Wild was the first and only entry in the series to come close to LTTP's mastery of the Zelda formula. I genuinely pity the OoT cuckolds, clinging to childhood-driven sense of change and evolution in video games rather than the objective qualities of the games themselves. Time will remember LTTP as the rightful king.

as a non-Zelda-nostalgic, I actually do understand why OoT and Majora are considered some of the greatest games of all time even if I personally don't agree. They do have a certain special quality along with solid, unique gameplay.
LttP however just feels kinda limp. I actually think Link's Awakening DX is pretty much better in every way.
