The genius of Kondo's score for this game isn't just for the variety of feels that he manages to produce, but that he builds almost every melody around the five notes available to the player on the Ocarina.

[@AGuy-vq9qp]

He had to do this because of the limited storage space for the software. (I think)

[@hps362]

@@AGuy-vq9qp He had to do it cuz the ocarina mechanic only used 5 different buttons (4 C Buttons and the A Button), so the player can only play 5 ocarina notes. The game still uses all 12 notes across its soundtrack, for harmonic colour and to flesh out melodic ideas, but the main melodies, front and centre of 95% of the soundtrack, are built around just 5.

I think the most genius part of this game is the Bottom of the Well area. Because it's an imaginative way to show that Link after traveling to the Future can't see the world as a bright and colorful place anymore. Before going to the future Child Link had all these wacky adventures and fun areas of him and Zelda being like "Yeah we can stop Ganon we can save the world!" But when you go to the future and come back as a Child for the Well you suddenly see the world is much scarier. Ocarina of Time truly is a masterpiece of a game and there's no doubt in my mind that it is Nintendo's (and Aonuma's) Magnum Opus

[@Nuisance_Bear]

I never thought of it this way at all but you’re right, The only time I think that you have to go back to being a child is to visit the well to get the lens of truth. It’s like you look back on something from your childhood and realize years later that something was not as you remembered it.

If it's AAA and not overly inventive, he typically says he doesn't like it, but it's clear that having spent time away from the game he actually respects some of its design elements a lot, to the point where he refers back to them. I KNEW he would feel differently about Death Stranding after his initial video and now he has some praise for it.

The first time you set foot in the sacred meadow, now filled with Ganondorf's minions, and you hookshot up to that ledge, you know you're in for some serious shit. The music in that temple is just sublime and sets the mood perfectly, the atmosphere is through the roof, and then fucking ghosts appear just to fuck with you and you have to track them down to restore the elevator. And then there's the Phantom Ganon boss fight, an awesome foreshadowing of the final battle. I also love the gimmick of shooting the paintings he's coming from. And all of this in your first dungeon as Adult Link. Once you get out, you can feel that the game is serious now, but there is still hope, even after 7 years of darkness.

When I was in elementary school my mom refused to allow me to have any video game systems. So when I went to my friends I would enjoy going into their basement with them and play N64 all night long with them. Specifically MarioKart and Orcarina of Time. This game gave me so much joy aside from the game aspect, it took me into a marvelous dream every time we played. I loved to free roam and just admire the characters and scenery and imagined everyone in the game was a real character (not an NPC) a living character that had a life like the farmer from Lon Lon Ranch and the Gorons. When you went to the future and everything was broken down and dark it gave me this sad feeling but in a good way because it made the game that much more real. Until this day I've never owned a gaming system but these experiences really rooted me into the Zelda series and I occasionally watch gameplay of the newer games on youtube to see what the games are like now. I normally don't write long-winded storytelling comments but this game is a MASTAPEECE. *5months after this comment update* 1. This is my most liked comment ever, its so cool, thx guys. 2.

A couple months back i had just gotten my 3ds and got a game every month. On my 3rd month i had no idea of what game to get so i just chose at random and i chose ocarina of time. It just had this look of adventure so i went into this not knowing anything about the game except the characters (my older brother knew zelda and i learned some things from him sometimes when he played a game of zelda). So i got home and played this game and it was the greatest decision of my life. I fell in love with the game and i became a zelda fan ever since and seeing all the love this franchise gets is phenomenal.

[@Panheim]

For real, Egoraptor's review of Ocarina of Time just about epitomises the 'it's cool to hate OoT' trend. I really lost all respect for him after watching that and realising he was clearly just nostalgic for Link to the Past and used that to fabricate lies about later Zelda titles to make them seem awful

[@karmalapples5942]

+Panheim Even though I don't necessarily agree with his opinions on Ocarina, I still love that video. It cracks me up and I think it's very useful insight into the creation of games. And I don't know if I'd go so far as to say he was fabricating lies... he just has unpopular opinions. I honestly see most of his points. I do really like Ocarina of Time, though.

[@findusuli]

+Snow White That's not the point. Hating it just because "bleh eh graphics and eh yeh fuku" is crap, especially since it's not a question of opinion that there's a LOT of love in that game, as well as original ideas. Being bored by it because you just not really like, well, be it the gameplay or its fantasy setting - that's a whole different thing. I for mine surely can't understand how to not like this game, but that again is a different matter. No one here ever criticised a legit opinion.

[@Panheim]

I think you need to chill yo. No one is obligated to like Ocarina of Time, but what is merely being pointed out is that certain people hate it simply because it is seen as trendy to do so. The game is not perfect, but it's a little tiring when criticisms don't make much of an effort to carefully dissect the issues it faces and instead resort to portraying those who disagree as morons (see case in point: Egoraptor's analysis)

[@jakobellis8575]

This video perfectly communicates how I feel about the Ocarina of Time. Thank you, dunkey

[@jakobellis8575]

"this game is a true classic, and it stood the test of time" -Dunkey (3:34). he is very obviously praising and applauding and commending the game for its content, gameplay, and atmosphere. he starts off sarcastic because he is saying that as a kid he thought it was garbage, because its graphics were so outdated. Yes, hyrule field is massive and travelling through it sucks, but that's not what Dunkey (or anybody else who appreciates the game) cares about. the music, the cutscenes, the puzzles, the battles, they're all unique and beautiful

[@jakobellis8575]

i think you just don't know how to appreciate a video game for what its worth. there's a reason why nintendo rebooted OoT for GameCube and Wii and 3DS. yes the simple creatures are repetitive to defeat, but most of the boss battles require you to use different methods to beat them; therefore, NOT all the same. your argument for the songs is stupid though, the "boring ambience" dungeon music sets a somber, sinister tone, and each song/music for each specific location is unique and different. what 4 or 5 songs are the only ones that people care about? yes the cutscenes might not hold up against today's video game cutscenes, but I don't think Dunkey was comparing them to today's video game cutscenes

[@jakobellis8575]

do you just hate OoT because you don't like zelda games or the commitment it takes to beat them? it's meant to take time to beat, it's meant to immerse you in Hyrule and that whole world

[@antehman2912]

The music is amazing because it is atmospheric, each and every song perfectly describes what terrain you are going into. The different dungeons, the graveyard, all of it has something that matches it. An OST doesn’t have to be memorable to be good. The feeling the songs give you is much more powerful than what it actually is. Original Metroid 2 on gameboy is a very good example of this. I think that people not liking hyrule field is kind of strange. I mean I don’t love it or anything, but I’ve never found it annoying at all. It feels like you have to rush through it to get where you need at certain times which makes it stressful rather than boring, and by the time you don’t, you have abilities to make it rather quick. The entire size of the area is cool to me too. However that one random fence that is there for no reason will always bother me. It’s all a matter of personal taste.

The graphics also don't look as impressive anymore, but they still look decent because they're stylized and thematically appropriate (Same reason why WW on GCN still looks good).

I am only playing the 3DS version now and it’s an absolute masterpiece. Developers had to be very creative due to the technical limitations at the time which resulted in a compact and meaningful open world. Hyrule field is basically empty but it works as a build up to your next dungeon, it’s like a mini journey/downtime which benefits the pacing. These days all you get is 100GB of massive open worlds which are mostly pointless and full of padding. OoT world and locations have meaning, it’s more videogamey but that’s good because IT’S A VIDEO GAME. Devs these days basically have virtually no limitations, you have several GB of storage, RAM and loads of processing power.

Like it feels like aged so its interesting seeing a the remnants of places etc.. With zelda games they didn't just design the game like throwing shit at it for the sake of it its like they thought about the lore and having reason for things to be the way it is.

@@conservat1vepatr1ot no way in hell you derived that message from this game as a child.

[@conservat1vepatr1ot]

@@subotrash686 If you’re saying I couldn’t articulate this in those words as a small child, you’d be right lol.. That said, yes I absolutely did take those things away from this game, at that age.

[@MargoGuryanFan1]

@@conservat1vepatr1ot I think people underestimate what children can feel and think. Even if it’s not as laterally complex and developed as say you thinking about those things as an adult. I totally believe you derived that from the game. Because it’s clear you have obviously discerned these POVs thru adulthood and childhood. To at least some degree, anyway. Wishing you a great day.

I think this is my favorite dunkey video. I come back and re-watched this over the years. It so perfectly compasses what makes ocarina of time so special. This video is that fucking masterpiece shit.

[@ttracs]

I got into older games around a year ago and I gotta say, ocarina of time is a play through that’ll stand out to me for years to come

[@mikelanon5390]

Hey if you don't mind me asking what year were you born? What do you think of Ocarina of Time??? I was born 1990 so I'm curious on those who were born maybe much later and their opinions on this game

[@ttracs]

@@mikelanon5390 oh I was born 2006, so at the time of writing that comment when I was almost 14.

[@ttracs]

@@mikelanon5390 the game was fun, it was very interesting and complex for its age, graphics held up surprisingly well in many of the areas and the dungeons had unique gameplay elements (even if things like the water temple were a little confusing)

I don't know how anyone's gone through life without playing this game

+Shady Dave Easily. What you don't know won't hurt you.

[@altsadhara]

+Zwooxy Well that's just inaccurate; you can easily die from unknowingly ingesting poisonous materials. You'd try to go on about your normal routine, excusing away any symptoms until you started to cough up blood (or other soap-opera level symptoms developed).

[@TheRockMouse]

Shady Dave I still haven't played it.

[@Zwooxy]

Papa Grimly In this case, though, the saying fits perfectly. Which is why I used it. Even if it's inaccurate when used in its most general sense.

[@gothic2fanHUN]

Since I hate bitch ass Link it's easy for me. I think it's retarded that a little kid saves the universe.

[@Dylanjrvs]

This game means so much to me. For me Nothing has quite recaptured the sense of adventure and growth that this game has. Not a lot of games are like this as most of them get tedious after 10 hours.

[@mathematicsforfunforever]

man I really love this video for some reason, I always go back watching this at least once a year

[@JawsofFreedom]

Same here homie!!

[@andrewwebber5903]

The greatest video game ever made.

[@sEaNoYeAh]

Near perfection. Phenomenal gameplay, great story, great themes, real discovery and sense of adventure, great directing and phenomenal pacing. No redundant mechanics, no grindy filler, excellence in every single area of design. Still used as a reference to this very day for world class game designers. It's up there with the likes of Tetris, Portal, Half-Life 2 and Nintendo's own stable of candidates for best game ever as an example of a truly near perfect videogame.

[@juice8431]

Bruh, I wouldnt call it THAT good

[@ChodyRay]

@@juice8431 it is though. This was one of the first games that really paved the way for modern open world RPGs

[@juice8431]

@@ChodyRay and I fully respect the game for achieving that. But calling it the best game ever?? Nah. It may have been amazing back in the day and still holds up to a really good game today but it isn’t the greatest game ever. I can easily point out many flaws of the game (which again, for the time it was made, it is completely understandable). The greatest game ever is probably something like god of war, the last of us, red dead 2, Witcher 3 or breath of the wild (these are the ones I can think of at the moment but I am pretty sure there are plenty more)

[@robyfaraa4105]

@@juice8431 that is biased, you are thinking those games are the best only because they came out recently and look amazing compared to older games. But if we are looking at games that was amazing at its time compared to games that came out amazing in a different time, zelda ooc smashes everything.
