I've always found the Uncharted 4/The Last Of Us/God of War 2018 to all be decent, but all those games are kinda lacking in imteresting gameplay and are basically the video game equivalents of "Oscar bait"

I’m actually playing through Ocarina of Time for the first time right now and it’s not awful but it is ridiculously obtuse and impossible to know where to go next. It holds up just well enough to be interesting almost from a historical perspective, but it’s definitely not good.
I have never understood how people don't know what to do in Ocarina. I was ten when I beat it the first time, it's not that complex.
Now, Majora's Mask on the other hand...
If we're going to go with the two extremes of handholding quest log that tells you where to go versus hope to run into the one npc you need to talk to to progress (and remember where he told you to go), I'd definitely prefer the former most of the time. Though granted the latter was more fun back when I'd get home from school and play zelda for hours at my friend's place.
I think Pokémon Legends Arceus did a pretty good balance of that. If you track your quest it’ll give you a marker but for a lot of them the marker is just the quest giver and the description just tells you to go figure something out
Importantly you can check the quest log to read back over them, instead of having to remember what the random guy told you.
Edit: This is also the only good thing about PLA’s UI. Every button and menu in that game is in the wrong place. Nothing does what it should.
yeah, that's about where i'm at. it is playable, it's just frustrating having heard for years it was the greatest game ever
Also in its small defense, scrolling down a list of games that came out in the same year, 1998, the only one I feel like would play better than OoT is Half-Life. But again, that just makes it interesting to see the history, it doesn’t make it good today.
it's super important historically, and should definitely be played by anyone interested in the history of 3d games. but good games had come out before. previous zelda games, for example. admittedly not many 3d games, and even less if you aren't a fan of turn based gameplay, but even then there are some examples. i personally think metal gear solid from the same year has aged better because of the twin advantages of being built for the playstation controller and being stealth based, which means the imperfect controls are just added challenge. even if it's jankier from a pure gameplay perspective, i'd still rather play it today.

Nintendo release Twilight Princess and Wind Waker on Switch you cowards
Not BOTW, but Fi from SS.
Yeah, that's right. I swear to god, once you understand that all her dialogue is deeply sarcastic, she becomes so much better. Maybe still not quite to Midna levels, but hey, we're commiting LoZ heresy here so I wanted my turn

Fi was the spirit of the sword and your companion character, you definitely met her
