Question

Sooo... just a random question; but may I ask why exactly many people tend to believe that A Link to the Past is one of the best Zelda games? And to those people who rank Link to the Past alongside Ocarina of Time; was Link to the Past one of your first few Zelda games? (i.e. before more linear and 3D Zelda's became the standard?) I'm playing through it right now, and so far.... not that great...

    Btw, am currently @2nd/3rd Dark World dungeon, playing through it for the first time. Personally, this doesn't even feel like the best 2D Zelda game; I liked Minish Cap for the GBA a lot more >.<

    It was the first Zelda game to feature a real story and history behind the series, which became the some what the basis of what Zelda games are today.

    ...but just being the first to do something doesnt make it 'one of the best'; it just makes it 'one of the first'. I really don't think it holds up very well nowadays; considering how so many people (on another post) kept giving it 9/10 or higher, but I never see a reason why, that any other, more recent Zelda, has done better...

    nostalgia is major. however, i think the pacing is great, especially the build up to entering the dark world and fighting ganon. lots of dungeons and powerful items, too. interconnected overworlds that are fun to traverse

    Were talking about how we dislike a link to the past in a zelda community were gonna get crucified . But seriously I didnt enjoy any classic zelda so far I played A link to the past, Ocarina of time, The legend of zelda. Mabey because I wasnt that good a year ago when I played them but they werent very fun infact I despise ocarina of time. I am gonna get CRUCIFIED

    If you're only now just playing the game it might be harder for you to enjoy it. Due to the fact you're so use to how the new games play. Kinda like how if a Pokemon fan plays the newest games and then goes back to ones before it but never played them before. Some parts of it won't be as good to them since they've improved on a lot of stuff over the years.

    @Cole, I think I see what you mean... Very good analogy :3 And 'fun to traverse overworld' is highly subjective XD There's just too many squares of enemies between dungeons... Maybe I just like Epona/Wolf Link and Teleportation fast travel more than I like wandering an enemy-riddled overworld X3
