Koh -Vs- Ocarina of Time

[water dog]

i was simply saying that the game can't be held to next gen standards -- it cant have billions of side quests, items, enemies, an extensive database... it just can't because it's too old, things like that could not have been done back then without compromising the rest of the game.

the criticism of ocarina of time is not that there "isn't enough to do", hth. that you said the game was phenomenal in the same breath that you said "it was made in 1998, man" makes your defense even more confused. you're thinking about certain criticisms - like the pointlessness of hyrule field - and thinking that the only solution is the reverse, to fill it up with stuff. that is hardly the only solution to the problem, and its certainly not the most reasonable one.

i was replying directly to koh's criticisms mostly. i'm not looking to argue about this anymore, though. i think the game is fantastic. do i think there are better games? of-fucking-course, as koh said earlier, MM is a technically better game. but not much can hold a candle to OoT to me. that game literally helped shape who i am today IN A HUGE WAY.
