Re: Best Of 2022: Which Zelda Game Should You Play First?

I think you can't go wrong with OoT. I mean it just nails the balance between imersiveness of the world and solid game design. However on those points I feel like Wind Waker's world is more immersive, I really lived that feeling of sailing into the blue yonder, not know what funny island I was going to happen across. From a design perspective I'd give it to LttP, it was my first Zelda game and it converted me to the series for the sheer amount of things to do, see and explore for a 2d game of that time.
I admit, having only got back into games a bit over a year ago, I'm still catching up so I still haven't got around to BotW (want to finish Dark Souls first!)
The other point where Zelda game excel is the music, with all games having haunting soundtracks. However, I feel like OoT also has the best one, every single tune is an absolute classic!
