Alright folks, after playing through Twilight Princess for the first time two weeks ago i decided to actually give a quick little top 5 of my own favorite Zelda Titles and why i Think it is the best. (I didnt play all of the Zelda Titles) I would like to get your top 3 in a format similar to mind just to get a feel on what others like! Let the games begin!
3: Majora's Mask- This game was Pure art. I have never played a game that got me so attached to the NPCs before and also gave me a feeling of dread when you are running out of time. The subtle things such as the clock town music during one of the three different days all the way to the references to imminent death and purgatory. This is definitely one of the darkest Zelda Titles and shouldn't ever be passed up!
2: Twilight Princess- This game was Phenomenal! This was by far the best combat in any Zelda game I've ever played (yes I'm looking at you skyward sword). I literally felt like a swordsman rather than a farm boy with a sword. You literally learn and master the sword arts yourself and whomever you execute them on is up to you! You aren't forced into using a specific directional cut to slay an enemy, you must rely on multiple different ways of subduing your foes! As for the story! Oh my god the story made me feel like a hero and had me choke up and a few specific moments when the children look up to you and you prove to them you are worthy. Midna is by far the best Zelda Companion Hands down! The music is great, but the wolf segments break up the action a little too much and the color palette is a little too stale for a Zelda title. Overall great Zelda!
1: Ocarina of Time- This one is purely Nostalgia as it is my first Zelda title, but when i was younger this game made me feel like a hero. The story nails it here, and after playing through The most epic final boss fight in HISTORY! I can honestly say that it is the best zelda title. The Music! Oh the Motha Fudgin music was the greatest in all of the series. The dungeons were so crafty and had a dark and light tone to each of the! Twilight princess was too dark, and wind waker to light. Ocarina of time was great mix of both! Progressing from a helpless child into a badass adult link made me feel like a legend and that is exactly what a game of this stature should make you feel.
Shoot me your opinions folks! I would like to get your thoughts!
