Epicness- the far reaching consequences and changes that happen in the game world, and even across separate time period, mean this story is grandiose in spectacle and execution.
Music- each track is significant, used purposefully to play up the feelings joy or sadness and everything in between while still hearkening back to the themes of previous entries.
Amazing game, pretty much perfect though not as untouchable as some would say, still holds up for the most part after all these years- surely a classic for its time.

There is a glitch where you can actually wear a pot!
There is a glitch where you can actually wear a pot....
Ocarina of time (or OoT for those of us who need to save the precious seconds for more pressing matters) is to many of us the game of our childhood. It follows the endeavors of Link (not Zelda!) who is awakened to find that faeries, talking trees and midgets all want him to leave town and go fight dangerous monsters. So off he trots collecting his signature arsenal of weapons and collecting coloured ‘things’ until he has enough things to fight Ganon who is trying to take over a world seemingly tailored to give minor obstacles to anyone attempting to go anywhere or do anything. You start off as child link and after some fapping about you get enough coloured ‘things’ to become ‘adult link’ in the future using the Master Sword and the OoT. As adult link your gaming experience is refreshed by being able to use different abilities and weapons. After a bit more fapping about you become a bit in-game-nostalgic when BAM you are able to return to being child link again. It’s win win win all the way home from there.
Conclusion: The game actually has a lot of faults but for 1998 it was mind blowing and special. The nostalgia vortex is kick started with this game and with expectations high for the next Zelda game, the young gamers of the new millennium were about to get their tiny minds blown again… a bit.
THE BEST GAME SO FAR! Cannot recommend it enough, it’s a must for any gamer to play this piece of art.
