4.5★ - I love the game.

A good couple of hours into ToTK had me feeling nostalgic for a classic 3D Zelda and once I had finished its story I found myself coming back to Ocarina of Time.

I ended up getting myself a Nintendo 64 Controller for this play through and found myself so much more confident with my C button inputs then I ever did when I last played this game with the default switch controls. Now that I've reviewed how much the original controller matters on to the game.

Ocarina of Time is a jank game... that I can't help but just love. It's so charming and engaging. The world feels alive despite how empty it is and this is due to how much character each NPC exudes. The music is excellent yet simple.

The game has its issues like Z targeting being a crap shoot on if Navi will actually focus on the enemy you want to target or the awkward first person aiming, along with some very frustrating challenges that use said aiming. I got the 1500 points in archery. The most un-fun thing I've done and yet. This game still kept my love for it.

This game has aged. But it is still very much worth your time.
