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"

    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.
