Topic: Favovite Zelda game?

I'm looking forward to buying Twilight Princess for the third time (it will happen...), and also Skyward Sword for the second time, but with flying sorted out.
If they do all get released this year, it will be interesting to see if the concerns about these title treading water hold nowadays.

I think, because OOT was my first Zelda game, I've never groked the 2d ones. Phantom Hourglass was fun, but I just found Spirit Tracks to be more of the same.

So, um, BOTW, TP, SS, OOT for different reasons.

(I never got MM, I found it too abstruse)

@anti-matter how would you like it if we would make fun of every typo or English mistake you make?

@jump nicely put

Phantom Hourglass is probably my favorite today, with ALBW and Breath of the Wild right there behind. More so than the other two, Phantom Hourglass made the best of its system and I enjoyed experiencing the creativity the developers had with the Nintendo DS's features. ALBW is a fantastic but safe experience to me. I don't feel there's anything particular that stands out besides the great overall quality. With Breath of the Wild, a lot of directions in that game that can lead to better experiences than PH and ALBW provide but also plenty of directions that could lead to lulls. If I were to play either ALBW or BOTW right now though, I would likely say one of them instead of PH. It's that close at the top for me with the Zelda series.

My favorite is probably breath of the wild.

Just found a DS game called Ripened Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love.

@jump @toiletduck Are we not even allowed to just laugh at a typo nowadays?

My Top 3 would be:

3. Ocarina of Time
2. Wind Waker
1. Breath of the Wild

But if I were to play through Ocarina again I might find myself having to swap places with Wind Waker. And then vice versa.

Majora's Mask is my least favourite and likely to stay that way.

I love all of the Zelda games except for Breath of the Wild. I never thought I'd hate a Zelda game until they made this one.

@gcunit
It comes across as a bit rude if one doesn't even bother commenting other than that.

Particularly from someone who used to post that allowances should be made as English was his second language.

@k8sMum Well, to some people I suppose it might. There tends to be two kinds of people in the world - those who seem to look for opportunities to take offence, even if it's on someone else's behalf, and those who are chill.

There was nothing insulting posted - just a reference to a typo and an emoji. Why can't that just be an innocent chuckle between community members? Why does it have to be interpreted negatively? If that is cause for offence for some people then they must have a tough time navigating this world in a good mood for long.

@gcunit I was more explaining to Anti what Toad meant since he’s not good at picking up social cues rather than telling him off. Now that you mention it I would be worried if someone was crying with laughter from seeing a typo in real life.

Only played Breath of the Wild, so I guess that's my "favovite".....

@BruceCM remind me again and you may have told me before. Is the switch your first nintendo console? If so at least you can try Zelda 1, 2, ALTTP, Links Awakening, and even cadence of hyrule. So you got some catching up to do 😉

Nah, just read the story from Wiki, you’re not missing out on anything ;p

@gcunit

And yet you are taking offense that other people were taking offense. Not much difference in your reaction. I didn't see any rancor, just pointing something out that it was just a typo, nothing worthy of a comedy special.

Well, I did have a DS, @NintendoByNature but still managed to miss Zeldas on there .... I think I'll just wait for BotW 2 or whatever they call it now, though! I don't have NSO, either

@BruceCM gotcha.. well, you have the chance now I guess, if you want to see where it all started.

A Link to the Past. I wish they made another Zelda game on the Super NES but it is what it is.

If I put down my favourite Zeldas I’d get killed lol.

It's still Ocarina of Time and probably always will be. I really loved BotW and it's a close second now, but I can't deny I missed the dungeons and most of all I missed the iconic music. I understand they can't just keep playing the Hyrule Field Theme over and over in a game like this, but I wish that at least the towns and such had some of the amazing and catchy music that OoT has. When I think about Zelda, I just hear those tunes in my head.

@I-U I agree that the DS games were a perfect fit for the system but there was so much padding that it took a lot of the enjoyment away.

For me BOTW is the best by far.

Coming in next would be Link’s Awakening (any version) but that is simply from a nostalgia point of view. I usually replay that game once a year.

OOT and MM are also very special games as well.
