Minish Cap deserves to be above Phantom Hourglass at least.
When did you play it? Because back in 2005/2006 it was pretty ambitious for the time.
Twilight Princess is one of the most boring and tedious games I've ever played. I can only assume it's one of those "it gets better after 6-7 hours" games.
I don't know, I think those two should be higher.
I'm really surprised Link's Awakening scored as low as it did. Game is freaking legendary. Would definitely have placed it above Link Between worlds, but that's because I don't get why so many people thought it was one of the best things ever (don't get me wrong, it was good, but not that good).
Skyward Sword being ranked behind every other 3D console Zelda is sufficient for me.
Agreed. I love em so much, and it was a shock when discussing with the Zelda community that they're not really all that loved,
SS ahead of ALTTP. Now that's the truest shit I've seen all day. SS is one of the best Zelda games ever made.
I'd put it last. The fact it's even called Zelda is an insult. A case study for why the Wii was gutter trash
You should catch a fish for this cat. You are finished? CATCH ANOTHER ONE.Twilight Princess is one of the most boring and tedious games I've ever played. I can only assume it's one of those "it gets better after 6-7 hours" games.
WW has the worst dungeons of any major 3D Zelda, a barren overworld, and SO much padding between THAT triforce quest and the boss rush at the end.
The art's pretty though and the story has some good moments. Is that all it takes to be a 96 on Metacritic?
Well we can at least agree on BOTW and MM. No question, two of the greatest games I've ever played.On the other side, WW has one of the best stories and a lot of characters to be remembered. That's why even BOTW has some "returning" characters in some form.
Hell, WW was the only Zelda game where Ganon/Ganondorf has a reason to be the bad guy, instead of "MUH TRIFORCE OF POWER, I'M EVIL".
This game was the first on trying "open world" as a game. Even if 80% of the game is sea. The gameplay is one of the strongest on Zeldas by far.
I really like Windwaker and my trio of best Zeldas are: BOTW > WW > Majora's

The beginning of that game was unbearable, I never got through it despite being a huge Zelda fan up til the time of release. Amazing how quickly the game soured my opinion on the series.

There are whole swaths of those games that are just straight up not fun to play. Wind Waker has the triforce quest, the overworld, the forsaken fortress, and the last dungeon. Skyward Sword has the intro, the dowsing, the tears of light equivalent, the overworld, the instrument.Also, Wind Waker and Skyward Sword have no business being that high. They're the ones who should be around 80+ at most.
They always get the Nintendo die hards to review these games, from what I see.
How in the shit is MM so high up there?
You can shit on SS all you want but don't you fucking dare group WW in with that trash
U know most of those Zelda 2 reviews are from idiots in the last 5 years.

Because it has some of the best side quests and NPCs in any game ever? Some of the best dungeons in the entire series? A completely unique narrative and tone that is pretty unlike any game since? It's also the easiest Zelda to return too thanks to how unique and unlike the other Zeldas it is.How in the shit is MM so high up there?
For someone who seems to love Zelda why would you never play what is the consensus greatest Zelda of all time and the closest thing we have to the consensus best game of the past 20 years?I haven't played Breath Of The Wild (and probably won't) but I would rate the Zelda games that I have played like this:
1) Majora's Mask
2) Wind Waker
3) Ocarina of Time
4) Link's Awakening
5) Oracle of Ages / Oracle of Seasons
7) Twilight Princess
8) Link To The Past
9) Phantom Hourglass
9) Minish Cap
10) Spirit Tracks
I love Majora's Mask and Wind Waker so much. I'll forever have really good memories of those two.
