putting the DS games above Tears of the Kingdom...this man has got balls. He's ready to face the wrath of the Zelda community and I totally respect that.
I just gotta speak my truth man! 😄 But honestly, more people have come at me about Zelda 2’s low ranking than TOTK which is VERY surprising and interesting to me
@@LUNATOONS_25 yea honestly. Zelda 1 and 2 feel like prototypes to me, it's only reasonable to put them at the bottom. There's no real reason to even play them nowadays, if not out of curiosity about the origins of the series. I have very similar feelings about TotK btw, I stopped playing it after about 40 hours because I got really bored but at the same time overwhelmed with the 3 different overworld layers. I only just started to continue playing it the other day. Twilight Princess used to be my arch nemesis of the Zelda games for a long time, but recently I gave it another chance and despite being a game with a lot of flaws, I've made my peace with it and I'd rank it in middle of my Zelda tier list now. I really enjoyed your video, you've got yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the good work! :)
@@k.b.7718 PH is the only Zelda game I have never played, I even played Four Swords for a bit but never Phantom Hourglass. I don't think I'd like it tho tbh.
nice to see the twilight princess love man, it’s one of my favorites as well. hoping for the next 3d zelda to have a gothic fantasy realistic vibe like it
It was a very memorable experience. The time mechanic was a little stressful, but certainly unique and interesting. The world and side stories were peak as well
Im w you 100% on totk. I havent even finished half the game and just have no desire to finish it. What a disapointment. I wish i would have bought the 3d kirby game.
Yeah even though I put 50hrs in, I still don’t feel like I got my moneys worth in term of sheer enjoyment Would rather have picked up Street Fighter or something lol
Definitely some hot takes here, but nothing wrong that. I was a huge fan of botw and felt like totk improved upon (almost) every aspect. I was overwhelmed at times, because there is TOO much to do, but I feel like its variety is what keeps me going. When I'm bored of doing one aspect, I just go to the chasms, and then change it when I'm bored of that, and the cycle keeps going. With your restaurant analogy, a lot of fine dining sort of places have those super small dishes because you're supposed to have like 10-15 of them. It can be stupid yea, but even if it's treated as a dumb novelty (I'm sure most of those restaurants will admit that lol), they're fun to go through. Minish Cap is definitely a masterpiece though. I am frustrated with how underrated it is. It is probably the most expensive mainline zelda game, but with it finally being on the switch it might finally get the following it deserves. I also feel like it's the best game for someone to start the series with. It's one of the easier titles, and shows off the formula in a simplistic yet effective way. Oh, and Zelda 2 does rule :P
Yeah a vast majority of players don’t seem to have an issue with TOTK structure so I’m definitely in the minority on that one! And I agree Minish Cap is an amazing introductory game. It just feels so inherently ‘Zelda’ and does the 2D Zelda games justice! I’ll have to try Zelda 2 again some day lol
Love this list! We as a fandom need some hot takes to keep us on our toes! But I found myself agreeing with quite a bit on this list! Don’t let totk get away with its malarkey, and minish cap is sick! I would’ve put links awakening higher personally though. Great job!
Thank you thank you! There’s a couple on the list that I wanted to put higher, but once you start comparing legendary entries to legendary entries, someone’s gotta get the short end of the stick 🤷🏻♂️
There were a lot of unexpected rankings here. I’m so used to seeing BOTW/TOTK back to backs and I don’t think I’ve ever seen MC as a top choice(great game). The only Zelda card removal I had was AOL at the end of the list, but I can’t do that because I’m team BOTW/TOTK in the bottom 3 which is apparently sacrilege. I think the only comment I disagreed with was the podcast stating that the OOT formula was about story while BOTW was exploration. I believe the OOT( or ALTTP) formula was about exploration, progression, and story , basically fine tuning the original’s formula. BOTW formula is more free exploration that is its own beast but something we’ve also seen in open world sandbox, not something I would necessarily call fresh or original, to Zelda sure but not to gaming. Also I will die on the hill that the N64 controller was comfortable for its time. I feel the people who hate it the most held the left and right prongs while playing instead of the middle and right.
yeah BOTW just had that colossal impact on the gaming industry that was so fun to me. crazy how just 1 game later i found that formula to become stale. and i dont think the N64 controller is UNCOMFORTABLE necessarily, but the joystick is pretty garbage and the placement of the D Pad and L bumper made them essentially worthless to me haha
@@LUNATOONS_25 that’s what I always found interesting about it. I remember playing it and probably midway through it, I felt it was Skyrim or Minecraft(that’s more TOTK now) with a Zelda sticker slapped on it. Admittedly the open world sandbox genre isn’t my favorite, I just wish they melded some aspects of the traditional formula into the new formula instead of tossing it away. I won’t lie though, I was excited for BOTW and discussing with my friends the different paths we took was a lot of fun. I definitely enjoyed it more than TOTK. Open world sand box/survival games have been one of the most popular genres since 2001 and an insane amount of games in this formula has come out since BOTW. It was only a matter of time before the fatigue came. There is no denying that the analog stick was trash especially when Mario Party came out. The dpad and L button is tricky because so few games used them outside of wrestling games. I’ll admit I have some rose tinted glasses on for that controller. I think I also appreciated being a big controller that had grips that fit my hands. The original PlayStation controller was small for no reason and resulted in hand cramps for me.
Fair list..so so glad you listed what is true to your taste..my list is also quite different to the majority. I see that tears of the Kingdom Is MUCH lower than breath of the wild..i have played totk but not botw because many have told me that no Need..but your placement makes me doubt that..should i play botw? (Keep in mind i feel as though they have burried what Zelda is all about under the Temple of time ruins..im.very dissapointed with the style) My list- 1-Ocarina of time..still no1 After totk. 2-A link to the past 3-a link between worlds 4-tears of the Kingdom (for the effort and Freedom NOT for the atmosphere..less is more in art style) 5-the Wind wakee 6-twilight princess 7- majoras mask (for the cleverness not the atmosphere) 8-skyward sword 9- links awakening(old havnt played new) 10-the Legend of Zelda 11- the Adventure of link. Other titles i have not played.
I think the greatness of BOTW is partly due to its time of release. It was really one of those games that rocked the gaming industry so idk how much punch it would have now, especially after playing TOTK. That said, it is a fantastic game that I can totally recommend!! Totally respect the list! Its been cool to see everyone’s varying opinions. Nobody’s list is the same it’s great 😄
Don't listen to the people that say to not play botw...even if totk has come out I still think that botw is worth playing for the different story,divine beasts,different abilities,different map(even if it's the same hyrule it's still different than tho one of totk),different memories,side quests and shrines(sorry for my bad english I'm italian)
Yeah, TOTK just didn’t hit the same way as BOTW did for me. Maybe change the art style and take away the ‘shrine’ formula and I could feel differently. Idk Hopefully the more traditional style isn’t gone entirely!
imo it was great for the FIRST time in BoTW - but needed to change a lot in ToTK and they mostly failed big time. a compromise of openworld + classic Zelda with new gameplay (diving!) and a brand new map like Majora after Ocarina - could have been a fantastic game.
@@charliez077 Majora's Mask came out 1 year after Ocarina of Time and it's one of the most creative and unique games of all time. Tears of the Kingdom came out 6 years after Breath of the Wild and it's basically a complete rehash of Breath of the Wild. What happened to Nintendo?
Bold top choice! I've got Seasons as my personal favorite, cool to see someone else with a similarly unique choice. Definitely some things I didn't agree with, like Tears of the Kingdom being near the bottom. Being that one of my first ever video games was New Super Mario Bros. Wii, a game that boasts only a little novelty, I tend to value games based solely on how fun they are, which is why I have TotK quite high, and why OoT and especially LttP are quite low on my list. Speaking of... S (Phenominal): Oracle of Seasons, A Link Between Worlds, Twilight Princess, Tears of the Kingdom A (Fantastic): Minish Cap, Spirit Tracks, Skyward Sword, Majora's Mask, Breath of the Wild B (Solid): Oracle of Ages, Link's Awakening, Wind Waker, Four Swords Adventures C (A bit lacking): Phantom Hourglass, Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda D (Boring): Four Swords (Anniversary Edition), Tri Force Heroes, F (Frustrating): A Link to the Past, Zelda II
Dang we definitely differ on several games! Having OoT and LttP so low is wild to me 😄 Gotta love the wide variety of opinions when it comes to this series!
@@traviscunningham7062 I've given it a second playthrough since then, and now I have it placed in C tier between Ocarina of Time and Zelda 1. You have to strategize and play a little differently than you would with most of the other 2D Zelda games, and part of my initial frustration was not being able to adapt. I can more clearly see the appeal of the game, but still acknowledge it's a little rough around the edges.
2 things that kept it there for me is 1. Didn’t have much nostalgia for it or any sort of “special” connection 2. Timers in video games stress me out lol Fantastic game tho
I didnt have a Switch when botw came out during my freshman year of college but my TV was very close to my dorm room so whenever i wanted to play handheld I luckily had the range to do so! Also I appreciate the Skyward Sword love!
Glad to hear you were a fellow Wii U enjoyer haha Skyward sword is legit, even if it’s a tad bloated. I can see that if you weren’t a fan of motion controls it not being your cup of tea, but I was the perfect gamer for that title specifically
I liked the older games better, I recently bought and played TOTK but after I finished the depths and mostly everything, I lost interest; the game was too big. I miss the unique weapons for each temple…
Same. The old formula is so good and I feel if they wanted to continue with the open world stuff, they could definitely still incorporate a lot of the more traditional elements seamlessly
omg, I love minish cap as well. I felt like it was too short and I hated the library and the shoe quest because they were kind of cryptic with how to start the quest. However, everything else, awesome!
COMPLETELY agreed with your ToTK ranking, so happy more ppl are finally calling it out after the honeymoon phase (not happy bc I hoped for it to be amazing - but bc I do believe it's very overrated, sadly) incredibly recycled BoTW Hyrule + gameplay + enemies + armor + Koroks etc, Depths are bloated as hell, much from BoTW is unimproved; BoTW was fresh and innovative as hell in 2017 and is imo a FAR superior game than ToTK in 2023
Can’t say I disagree with any of those points! Yeah I recall looking around at everyone having so much fun with it and wondering what I was doing wrong lol It had its moments, but ultimately fell way short of my BOTW experience
@@LUNATOONS_25 100% same here, I also felt crazy seeing all the rave reactions. yes, ToTK has its great MOMENTS (imo the best one is the whole part before Spirit Temple) - but for me the ratio of those moments and the rest ended up painfully insufficient. imo the most overrated game of recent times (and I was HYPED!)
This was a pretty solid list, and shows how different each Zelda fan is when it comes to the series. Mine is off kilter for some people: 1. Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link 2. Majora's Mask 3. Wind Waker 4. Skyward Sword 5. Phantom Hourglass 6. Twilight Princess 7. A Link Between Worlds 8. A Link to the Past 9. The Legend of Zelda 10. Ocarina of Time
They’re all so good, it comes down to very small details that may appeal to different people! Crazy to see Zelda 2 and the top of yours but I gotta respect it!
Wow, someone who agrees with me on Tears of The Kingdom lol. Rare. Heres my list. 1. Ocarina of Time 2. Wind Waker 3. Majora’s Mask 4. Breath of The Wild 5. Twilight Princess
Yeah it just didn’t click at all for me. I’ve recently been burnt out by all open world games so probably didn’t have a chance to succeed with me regardless!
My favourites: 6. Link’s Awakening 5. Breath of the Wild 4. A Link to the Past / Between Worlds 3. Ocarina of Time 2. Wind Waker 1. Twilight Princess I don’t really care for BotW as much as some but I respect it. TotK, on the other hand, is dreadful, and if it’s the future of the series lord help us. WW and TP are quite obviously the best by a mile - my opinion on which is better changes day to day. The GameCube was the golden age of Zelda lol.
Compare altp with albw is an shame for thé zelda game and vidéo game in général but Anyway i respect your opinion Its Like compare terminator 2 with thé last terminator
you played zelda 2 for 1,5 hour and put it aside? come on, play the game, finish it, and THEN rank it. start by grinding the lower point levels, and after thet go to the temples. It is a very nice game, give it a shot!
Yeah I get that, it just didn’t grab me AT ALL so I figured why put more time into it if I wasn’t having even an ounce of fun. I may look back into it one day and give it a better shot!
My list would be 1. Breath of the Wild 2. Link's Awakening 3. Minish Cap 4. Majora's Mask 5. Zelda 2 6. Ocarina of Time 7. Wind Waker 8. A Link Between Worlds 9. Spirit Tracks 10. Skyward Sword 11. Twilight Princess 12. Four Swords Adventures 13. Tears of the Kingdom 14. Phantom Hourglass 15. A Link to the Past 16. Oracle of Ages 17. Oracle of Seasons 18. Triforce Heroes 19. Zelda 1 20. Four Swords If spinoffs were included, this list would be very drastically different. I like Adventure of Link because the map is very similar to the island I live on and reminds me of home. Minish Cap is peak 2D Zelda for me. Link's Awakening was probably the most emotional Zelda game yet the most cheerful one that wasn't afraid to get adult. It was also my first 2D game so that probably plays a part in why it's so high. BotW was my introduction to the series so I'm obviously going to be biased to it.
I think you're absolutely wild for putting Majora's mask so low. But you're a hero for recognizing twilight princess for how great it is. Just a perfected version (for the time) of the classic formula established in ALttP. I agree that I pray we can get a new updated version following in TP's footsteps.
As I said in the vid, MM just doesn’t have much of a nostalgic connection with me. Plus, I think adding a timer to any video game stresses me out a little 😄
@@LUNATOONS_25 haha I am on the same boat currently - I finally played OoT for the first time (on 3DS) and mostly liked it a lot, went straight to Majora's Mask... and I admire it quite a lot but I am forcing myself into playing bc it truly does stress me
Minish Cap has always been my favorite too. I totally agree!! Also totk and breath of the wild are in similar spots for me haha, made a whole rant video about it lol
Heck yeah! First person to full-on agree with me on Minish Cap ranking haha And now that hype for TOTK has died down a bit, I’m seeing more and more peeps come out and admit it wasn’t their favorite 🤷🏻♂️
I feel about the same as you about TotK and BotW. I locked in almost seven hundred hours in BotW (between Wii U and Switch) and loved it the whole way through. I played TotK for over one-hundred fifty hours and dropped it without beating it. I filled out the entire underground and surface/sky, did four of the five dungeons and many shrines. TotK didn't capture the same magic BotW did for me. I also really don't enjoy the building mechanic, not because it's clunky, but because it just interferes too much with what I enjoyed about BotW. Before I had to consider my route and I enjoyed myself just traversing, now I just spawn a glider for 9 zonaite. lol Scenery also looked better in BotW since it wasn't stained with random stuff and skylands. I got nothing against TotK, but BotW just does it better for me.
The original zelda is the og. Should be higher on this list. Tough game. It took me and my brothers years to beat when we were kids. No help no internet just hours of game play
sorry but putting tears of the kingdom at 12 is really like really UNACCEPTABLE LIKE WTF I litterally prefer It to botw bro let's be objective LIKE HOWWWW ??!! as much as I love and have played botw (+ 300 hours, much more than totk) totk is litterally better in ALL of the aspects : dungeons, bosses, ennemies, story, charcters, exploration side quests, shrines,... the only big problem with It (there is other issues but this is the main one ig) is that It plays a bit too much like botw but beside of that the game is simply amazing that I have to prefer It just a little to botw cuz of what the game offers even if It has some issues in It. I can understand that you prefer botw tbh but I really can't understand that you put it so low I find It a little sad that you didn't appreciate SUCH A good GAME Good video btw beside totk I think your opinions are really weird lmao like I don't get minish cap #1 and MAJORA AT 10th cuz imo It's the best zelda game by far It's a masterpiece Ps : personnally It's my 2nd or 3rd favorite zelda game and I litterally cried in this game and only few games can do that for me
Yeah as much as I loved BotW, TotK just didn’t have the same magic. I’m also not much into building stuff in video games (outside of Minecraft) so that mechanic didn’t do much for me
absolutely same here. was a pretty big fan of BoTW, was hyped as hell for ToTK.... it disappointed me big time (mostly due to its unabashedly recycling so much of BoTW)
Somehow MC never really clicked for me. I found exploring and traversing the overworld to be tedious, the dungeons to be just so-so, the stone-fusion system with its fetch-quest character abysmal and don't get me even started on THE. WORST. HEART-PIECE in Zelda history: the figurine collection! Good for anyone who was able to enjoy it tho.
The most interesting part about these lists is to see where people place Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link. it was my first Zelda game, in fact it was the first video game I ever played, and it has since 1987 occupied a very special place in my heart. I would never go so far as to say it's the best Zelda game, it categorically is not, but it has always hovered around the top of my personal favourite list, even replaying it many times as an adult has never managed to dispel the special relationship I have with the game. I always had trouble ranking the very top entry, it was always between Zelda 2 and A Link to the Past for me, until 2017 and Breath of the Wild, now after 26 years or so, there was finally a new contender for the top spot, and I think it finally tipped the balance and I can now pretty confidently state that BotW is my favourite Zelda game, now it's just the number 2 and 3 spot I can't decide :D Edit: lmao that didn't take long, wrote this comment before watching the video, haha damn, what a way to go. Edit2: Tears of the Kingdom so low is interesting, as someone who now has BotW as my favourite Zelda of all time, I have to say I kind of agree. There are many things that TotK does better than BotW, but it never instilled that same sense of... cozy adventure BotW did for me. The Depths where really cool, but started to drag pretty quick, the Sky Islands never felt that unique, you quickly learned what you could expect to find on any given one, and flying kind of ruined some of the sense of exploration we had in BotW. I know you could just, you know, not fly, but that's not really how the human mind works, if it's there, you're going to use it. In no way shape or form do I think TotK is a bad game, I spent 260 hours on my first playthrough before defeating Ganon, and I would not play 260 hours of a game I did not enjoy, a lot, and I would probably not put it as low as you have, but I sympathize with you :)
YES! I was wondering if I’d hear from a Zelda 2 fan in the comments haha That’s really awesome. Sound like Zelda 2 had a major impact on you. I didn’t try Zelda 2 until I was like 19-20 years old so definitely didn’t have any preexisting nostalgia and as I said in the video, I was just so confused as to what was going on. I always found it interesting how Nintendo had some success with the initial Zelda then decided to change the formula so drastically with its sequel. And I agree with all you said about TOTK. BOTW had that initial “omg this is so new and interesting” feel that TOTK totally missed with me. I tried soooo hard to get into it, but it just wasn’t meant to be
I can’t respect any Zelda fan’s opinion if they quit playing a game like Tears of the Kingdom half way through. At least finish the game dude. What an insane take. 13th place behind Spirit Tracks WHAT??? I can’t take this guy serious. Then ranking Majoras Mask 10th just proved that this guy really doesn’t know Zelda games he’s just a pretender.
Bro, imagine thinking somebody stating their fucking opinion is a personal attack. I'm going to be honest with you, if a game is so bad that it makes you quit, I think that you have a good idea of what that game is like.
@@LUNATOONS_25 yeah i know. I even bought the $20 dlc for it. I finished it on the Wii U. I got it as well when I bought a switch like 2 years later. I didn’t play it as much on the switch. It looks the same to me.
@@nishquikpopsmy Zelda credibility plummeted in the eyes of many with that TOTK ranking lol And yeah! I really feel it’s the best way for me to express my experience with that game
(Hot take) I don't like twilight princess. I think it's a disappointing game for many reasons. The story makes no sense, the pacing is horrible and completely ruined by padding (like the wolf sections or going twice into the woods for no reason), and overall the game just has no personality for me. When you know every single zelda game has a clear defining aspect (like 3 days in majora's mask or the sea in wind waker) It's difficult to find one in twilight princess. And no it's not the wolf since majora's mask already had 3 better transformations. And it's even worse in the scope of the zelda series since twilight princess chooses regression over progression. Instead of improving on the serie's flaws, it expands on them and emulates them. This regression over progression thing is even more apparent when you realize that twilight princess just removes things but forgets to add other things to compensate, like the magic meter for example. At least the dungeons were fun and midna is one of my favorite characters in the series. And great video too i really enjoyed it
Twilight Princess has the best dungeons(City in the Sky being my favorite) and the best companion of all time. I thought the dark and edgy graphics helped with the overall vibe that the game was going for. The music is unique and different. It’s also the first Zelda game which Zelda has brunette hair(which I thought was really cool) and I also thought it was interesting how we only got to see Zelda 3 times throughout the entirety of the game because it’s main focus is on Midna. Some of the things I didn’t like about the game are the bosses, characters, enemies, and overall pacing. It definitely has boring parts that drag on way too long but I think Midna and the Dungeons make up for it. I think this game is the most controversial Zelda game because people either love it or hate it and there’s usually no in between. There’s a lot of things they could of taken out and at the same time there’s a lot of things they could of added as well. Overall… I’m happy it exists.
If you don’t like some of the mechanics that’s totally fair, and sure, maybe some other games have done things better than twilight. But to say it has no personality I think is objectively false! Otherwise, can’t argue to much with your other points :)
@@ShadowWizard224 i am happy it exists as well, because it's a lot of people's favorites. It kinda saved the series after the sales of the last few games.
I couldn’t disagree more on the tech demo aspect, but I know the sword breaking is pretty divisive. Never bothered me all that much, especially once you level up your weapon capacity
Not often do i see minish cap at the top. I agree it is incredibly under rated. I would definitely put twilight princess much lower, i dont like the dark art style (and the spiders are too realistic). Lttp so low tho... 😒
Hey like I said, 1-10 were essentially all in the “incredible game” tier so it was just my personal feelings/nostalgia ranking them at that point! Anyone could place it at #1 and I’d not bat an eye I’ll also admit that it’s probably been a good 10+ years since I last played LttP so maybe I’d have it higher with a more recent playthrough!
This is my top 10 all time: #10 A Link To The Past #9 Skyward Sword #8 Minish Cap #7 Twilight Princess #6 A Link Between Worlds #5 BOTW #4 Majora’s Mask #3 WindWaker #2 Ocarina of Time #1 TOTK Honorable mention: Spirit Tracks
Solid ranking! Once you get into the top 10 of the Zelda franchise, they’re all top-tier and could pretty much be placed in any order! I really need to play Spirit Tracks…
@@LUNATOONS_25 Thank you for your reply! I originally had BOTW at number 4 and MM, WW, and OoT were all ahead of it. Those three are considered the holy trinity of Zelda and even though BOTW was a great game… it didn’t feel like it had that special Zelda feeling that the others had. It could be nostalgia because I am more of a traditional fan. However, TOTK completely changed that with the music, dungeons, bosses, the vast open world and I personally enjoyed the characters and story as well as exploring the sky islands and the deep depths. It’s so beautiful and vast and that’s how I looked at it. Lastly, I respect you for giving Minish Cap the respect it deserves. It really is a great game 👍 like you said it’s all subjective!
@@ShadowWizard224 TOTK definitely takes the W with its bosses, story, and the depths in particular. And I’m just doing the lords work. Spreading the gospel that is The Minish Cap.
You starting off with Zelda 2 and Zelda 1 at the bottom of the list immediately lost me. We are obviously not even close so no need to watch rest of video. You're entitled to feel how you feel about these games, just isn't in the realm of discussion for me.
Every Zelda fan has an opinion that’s bound to make everyone mad, and mine is that Majora’s Mask is extremely overrated. The main story doesn’t cut it for me, four dungeons that are all decent at best with the exception of Stone Tower doesn’t cut it for me. Easily my least favorite 3D Zelda. My top 3 is definitely TOTK at 1, Skyward Sword at 2, and BOTW at 3. Skyward Sword’s main story, in my opinion, is absolutely FANTASTIC. Amazing dungeons, amazing characters, and fun atmospheres to play in. TOTK is easily the best game i’ve ever played, I have literally 0 complaints about the game, everything felt like the game was meticulously made for me. So yeah, here’s my ranking of the 3D Zelda’s. 1. Tears of the Kingdom 2. Skyward Sword 3. Breath of the Wild 4. Twilight Princess 5. Ocarina of Time 6. Wind Waker 7. Majora’s Mask
Yeah I think what can separate Majora from the other 3D games would have to be the quality of its side quests. Some of the most grim yet beautiful stories of these townsfolk preparing for the end of the world. The only way to piece these stories together is to speak to NPC at certain times of the day after certain conditions have been met. Really interesting to me! I do gotta put respect on TOTKs name. To top a former “best game ever made” in BOTW is a FEAT that not many can pull off Very curious where they go from here!
@@kidcosmo9327 in my review I stated beforehand that I had not beaten the game, plus, I’m just a dude with a camera and 200 subs not a journalist lol Secondly, while I agree that SS has the most focus on story than any other in the series, it’s feels to me that TotK has very little focus compared to the more traditional style. I thought it was a really well-said statement, but if you disagree that’s cool
@@LUNATOONS_25 Ive completed ToTK 100% x2, then BotW master mode 100% and I wanted to play a new Zelda, so I tried Minish Cap and it was really, really good! Im missing like 20 figurines after fighting Vaati, not sure if ill ever grid the rest xD
@@kabeuchiha I’m not a big 100% kinda guy but I did everything in BOTW except the Korok seeds (I got around 600 before I gave up lol) That’s impressive af though!
@@LUNATOONS_25 I can’t tell you aren’t bc I was enjoying the totk side quests of getting bubble frogs, getting all the cave entrances, getting all the wells and all the sign guys xD just bought a DS and ocarina of time.. never played that and I’m rly excited to experience it for the first time :D I know you’ll say I’ve wasted my time with totk ahah excited for echoes?
@@kabeuchiha nah man if you like that style of gameplay more power to you! I am interested, but the last 3 games will have used the “create your own adventure” kind of approach to the puzzles and such. Already pretty burnt out on that style after TOTK but we’ll see!
Majora's Mask needs a revisit maybe the 3DS version, considering both versions it's my number 1. I think it'd go quite a bit up in your personal ranking if you played it again Luna
Someday I shall and I do agree! It’s a great game, I just don’t have much experience with it aside from my single 100% play through years and years ago. Another play through would be good 👍🏻
I loved Minish Cap! By far the most nostalgia for a Zelda game I’ve ever had. Also, I appreciate the different perspective on your ranking, tired of always seeing the same Zelda games in the top 3.
Minish Cap is so great and it makes me sad that so many have passed on it! An objective list would probably look like everyone else’s, but my own personal tastes and experiences definitely let me mix it up a bit 👍🏻
I would've included the multiplayer games if I were you (since they all include singleplayer modes anyway) but I understand if you haven't played them.
Yeah I did skip out on those since I never had anyone else to play with and wouldn’t want to go through them solo. Bums me out thought cause the 4 sword makes it’s return! Lol
@@LUNATOONS_25 Singleplayer isn't a bad way to experience those games from what I've heard. Four Swords Adventures is probably the best multiplayer but in singleplayer they just become normal Zelda games.
I like the commentary here, but "Phantom Hourglass can be catastrophically ruined if you don't like the touch screen controls" is like saying "Halo can be catastrophically ruined if you don't like guns." That's the main thing that was advertised lol
Idk if that’s a good comparison. Im sure there are plenty of Zelda fans that do or do not enjoy touch controls that still gave these games a shot simply because they were fans of the series and wanted to see if it would work for them. From a story and gameplay standpoint, PHG and ST follow the same formula as all of the other 2D Zelda games. The touch controls are the main differentiator and therefore would be the deciding factor on wether most would enjoy them or not Thanks for the compliment though!

Hey bro I'm only about 2 minutes in but I just wanted to offer some advice as a viewer. Be a bit louder. Ima still watch this through but I'm struggling to hear the audio. The background stuff is fine but you yourself is low, like you're talking to me before I go to bed, if that makes sense. Just offering positive feedback, no hate whatsoever! Edit: i will add im doing dishes and laundry so that definitely matters compared to someone in a silent room listening lol. But this is the third video im on currently and thats what prompted me to say that as i could hear the others clearly. Again no hate just offering feedback 😊
Straight called out TOTK as $70 DLC 🤣 I haven’t even played it yet, but hearing that, following your “twenty appetizers” comment was hilarious. I HATED MM’s 3 day cycle. As a teen, it had me so confused, especially when events only happened on a certain day. I didn’t touch another 3D Zelda until BOTW. 😅 Great video!
Oh boy lol 6:21 cant wait to hear your reasoning but thats wild, below Skyward Sword 🤔 and below BotW is wild because TotK improves on every aspect of BotW
You need to finish this game man, get the glyphs, the regional phenomena, then to the castle you go I dont mean this in a mean or sarcastic way or in an "i'm upset" way, its more like a "give the main stuff a chance" lol (which can be hard without tone in text) but the beauty of TotK is that it has so much content but you dont have to do it all, like BotW, you can end the adventure at any point and feeling like you have to do everything, even if you dont like it, is definitely a you thing(it seems). And hey, I could be off base and you did all the regional phenomena and other stuff and still didnt like it/vibe with it
@@TheRealGarateafter I walked away from TOTK, I did go back and watch all story cutscenes and final boss fight on RU-vid. The story is phenomenal, especially Zelda’s role. But the pacing and gameplay just didn’t keep me engaged enough 🤷🏻♂️
@@LUNATOONS_25 fair enough, I get that, if its not for you its not for you, meanwhile Ive got 140 hrs and still have two phenomena left and the castle, but I did do the Spirit Temple already(that flashback cutscene is so hype)
@@TheRealGaratemy favorite story moment would have to be everything revolving around the Master Sword and Zelda… I honestly kinda wish (SPOILERS) • • • • That she had remained a dragon for eternity. Although that would’ve effectively ended her royal bloodline lol
@@LUNATOONS_25 finally beat it, man, what a game. The entire lead up to fighting Ganondorf was cool, the music was fantastic, and then the fucker turns into a dragon lol awesome I get wanting Zelda to stay a dragon but after all that, I was like hell yeah and having to catch her Shovel Knight style but mirroring the beginning of the game where he fails to catch her is just 👌🫡 Like I said, I get the criticisms of the pacing but man, the hype moments were hype
I had never really thought of minish cap super highly before. Your take on it, though, is kind of making me want to play the game again and give it another chance My ranking I would say is: 17. Phantom hourglass 16. Zelda II 15. Minish cap 14. Zelda 1 13. Twilight princess 12. A link to the past 11. A link between worlds 10. Breath of the wild 9. Skyward Sword 8. Oracle of seasons 7. Link's awakening 6. Oracle of ages 5. Spirit tracks 4. Tears of the kingdom 3. Majora's mask 2. Ocarina of time 1. Wind waker I might have to think about that list a little more. But that's where I stand for now
If I can promote one person to give Minish Cap another chance, I’ve done my job lol Dang Phantom Hourglass at the very bottom!? I need to play Spirit Tracks real bad Solid ranking!
