doom , read this quote closely ! Do you really think OoT or MM are falling into this category ? Ok , the games are too easy for my taste , but they are looking beautiful and they are really no bad games !
I have indeed read closely. They flopped imo, nothing more about it.
The Ocarina of Time, easy? I think someone forgets the dreaded Water Temple.

Ocarina was acceptably easy a lot of the time, it just meant getting onto the next potentially jaw-dropping section was more likely for a lot of people at the time. The game had more longevity than probably any other too.
Overall I'd go with TOOT as the better of the two, simply because hacking around is still a lot of fun, and the game had so many stand out unforgettable moments. 3D had rarely been so beautiful, the day/night cycle was wonderful, original bosses... ah, happy memories.
I'm not taking about puzzles. You could pretty much beat every boss with only losing a heart or two. And besides, I never EVER had to use a fairy in this game... sheesh.
Ocarina of Time for me. Majora's Mask was good but the time travel stuff got a little old.
I think it sucks pretty outright. Time travel should be forbidden in games. It's so unreal it stinks... you can never compherend the consequences of time traveling. And besides, in MM, you lost all your items (arrows, rupees, bombs, etc) when going back. Oh what a pain in the arse to re-collect 'em.
Games will be easier and easier... and that's bad!
Agreed!
I remember a long time ago, I was playing FF7 (okay... wrong topic, but have to say that), beat the last boss, but there was always more: chocobos (the gold one) the two weapons (diamond and ruby if I remember the right way) and I was playing and playing hours and hours... and these last challanges were really really hard! but now? I complete a game and it's complete! No new challanges, no things I never seen before?! I always miss these things in Zelda. But MM was a step in the right way: you could complete the game, but never seen all the things, you always have to search, to find all mask etc. (okay you have to search the heart pieces in every game, after you finish the game, or did anyone collect them before?). The best longplay (but warning, not difficult, it's easy like all these others...

) had the "oracles" ones.
Oppinions!?
Yes, side quests are nice, aren't they? But some people (like me) are too lazy to search for all this stuff... we usually want a LONG game instead of a short one with LOADS of side quests. That's where majora's mask and the wind waker failed utterly.
Going a bit off topic, but im thinking of getting a gamecube - is Zelda good on it and how does it compare to Nes and n64 versions.
Thank you!
Sucks. Not only do you have to play with stupid link-boy (yes, he's a kid!), but the game is too short, the story sucks... ahem... and even so - zelda's got green hair!

Who the hell has green hair?! (Okay, besides Saria, but she's not on topic here). Just flowing around on the endless dunes of the sea gets boring... and the battle system is the same as always... nothing new there. Only the dreaded counter attacks is new. Even though they tried a little to piffen up the game, it still is bad.
And how could they have made ganondorf so UGLY?! And how he laughs... it gives me the chills

yes, it's THAT BAD! Even OoT was better... really.
