maybe it's more like wii sports is the ocarina of time of its time

in terms of traditionally-controlled 3d (adventure) game design however, skyrim is to the 7th gen what oot was to the 5th

[Kalahari Inkantation]

what games did oot time influence.

basically every 3d (adventure) game that came after it lol

some of the most obvious examples are things like dark souls and shadow of the colossus (which in turn went on to influence botw to some extent)

other clear examples include anything with z-targeting (assassin's creed, kingdom hearts, etc.)

and things like darksiders and okami and many others

[Kalahari Inkantation]

On a related note, it's surprising to me that there isn't any clear influence of Zelda in Elder Scrolls.

what about sonic adventure

[Kalahari Inkantation]

the influence flow is the other way around

there's a reason that zelda is commonly considered to be the sonic of video games

I like twilight princess more than ocarina

[Kalahari Inkantation]

now that's bold

Why?

[TooB]

now that's bold

Why?

the big reason, which I am pretty sure you don't agree with, is the story. Besides me thinking its better, I really think the presentation adds a lot to it. The movement of the characters as they talk, and many interesting scenes in general.

The gameplay itself I feel is better. The dungeons are better (mostly).

The good music tracks stand out more to me than in ocarina.
