Considering i didn't get into Galaxy much either yeah it's probably low on my priority list 

skyrim is to the seventh generation what ocarina of time was to the fifth

[spoiler]

yes, i'm being completely serious[/spoiler]

i dont even know what that's supposed to mean

like oot, skyrim is the single most influential game of its era

oh, okay



so it's the wii sports of its time

what games did oot time influence.

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

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

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

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
