Zelda: Ocarina of Time INSANITY Randomizer - Part 16 [Pay to Lose] 

QOTD: If they remake OOT, they should honestly make an official "randomizer" built-in to the game options. It would be closer to changing up the layout of the storyline rather than getting random items but that would make an amazing experience for old fans of the game, as well as allow new oot'ers to find what we have fallen in love with.

The other day I found a $50 bill on the ground but when I bent down to pick it up I was encased in ice and a voice yelled out, “You are a FOOL!” My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined.

QQOTD: In a hypothetical OOT remake, it would be cool to have the map/world be a lot bigger in scale, BOTW/TOTK makes OOT Hyrule seem rather puny in comparison. I also would like for OOT to lead right into Majora’s Mask.

QOTD: think the chance is negligible but as someone without much nostalgia for OoT, there'd need to be something substantially new for new to be interested. Personally, I think it'd be interesting if a temple was added for the light medallion. I seem to remember hearing the temple of time was originally meant to be a proper dungeon. If it happened immediately upon getting the master sword after you learn 7 years have passed, it could also build suspense for how Hyrule has changed under Ganondorf's reign.

I watched gattaca for my biology class because we did a lot of gene splicing to make bioluminescent water pretty much from bacteria. So as an end of the semester think we watched it. I recommend it if you want to see what genetic modification can be in the future

As a librarian, I am so happy Tyler is using a public library 😂 A lot of authors, such as Neil Gaiman and Chris Riddell, really support libraries and librarians. Libraries encourage reading and reading has consistently proven to improve people's wellbeing and academic/career success, so providing free access helps with equality. Most authors are supportive of that.

Link: (Breaks a pot) NAVI! THE OCARINA OF TIME! Navi: Link! Wait, we... Link: (Picks up the Ocarina, but gets frozen) Navi: Already have the Ocarina of Time! -_-

CQOTD: I’d definitely add in the rumored Sky Temple with the unicorn fountain that was seen in early screenshots. Adding proper functionality to the masks with optional side quests in the child era would also be nice.

When you talk about body changes reminds me of Batman beyond when people get animal DNA crossed with their own

CQOTD: Not gonna lie, I want an official "Zelda maker" allowing you to make your own OOT adventure.

CQOTD: I would want more sidequests similar to Majora's Mask, where you're able to create a bond with certain NPCs.

CQOTD: They need to make Zora's Domain able to be thawed out if they make an oot remake. It would be really cool if they added more areas to explore underwater as an adult and a new minigame or something. There's actually a secret inaccessible tunnel in Zora's Domain so maybe they could make that a new area. It would be cool if they changed the locations of all the skulltulas to make them more interesting to collect. Also add more hidden areas like grottos or the weird place in the jabu jabu/ice cavern area. I always have dreams about some kind of boss battle happening in the temple of time so maybe they could add something like that or a new temple for the light medallion like other people suggested. Nintendo should implement all of their scrapped concepts for the game now that they don't have to worry about the technical limitations. It would be kind of disappointing if they changed nothing but making it look better since there's so much potential to make the game better

CQOTD: id vastly prefer they not bring in stuff from newer games but rather give thr current items more use. So many of the items in oot are used in one dungeon and nowhere else, fixing that problem would be a huge improvement. Id also like to see travel being better such as getting a default fast travel song like majora had. My last want for such a remake would have to be giving the travel areas more to do in, so many of them are just 2-3 things to do then nothing, majora had a smaller world but it was much more dense which helped it feel bigger

CQotD: Okay hear me out. Take everything from OoT and put it in BotW's world. Upgrade the child section by allowing you to use the masks from MM. Make more side quests that allow you to build rapport and relationships with the NPC's.

We did watch GATTACA in English class to discuss and analyze it and write a test about it later. Pretty interresting actually and touches a lot of the points discussed by you and the other commenters.

there you are. its a good day when a zootr 5 episode comes out

CQOTD: If they remake OOT i hope they make the areas change after you complete a dungeon. For example the Gorons return to their home, Zora's domain isn't frozen anymore etc. It would also be cool to see dungeons that didn't make it like the Ice and Wind dungeon. Maybe make them optional so it's not too different from original game. Another thing i can think of is making Hyrule Field not so empty in the adult era or making the adult era more dangerous in general. Like kid Link has to face so many enemies in the field but adult Link, when Ganondorf is having full control, doesn't fight anything in the field.

CQOTD: 1) Quality of Life Updates: boots and ocarina on d-pad, options to skip cutscenes (especially song cutscenes), The bunny hood to actually work, blue-fire arrows 2) Prizes for the rest of the skulltulas: prizes for 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 to make it actually worth wile collecting them in the base game 3) More use to the golden scale and golden gauntlets (could be like a mini game requiring the items) 4) I’d love to see stray fairies in the temples like Majora’s mask to get prizes from the great fairies instead of just playing zelda’s lullaby (i think it would be a lot easier and more fun to collect them without a time limit. 5) One of the masks from the trading side quests allows you to see the health bar of an enemy or boss like windwaker

CQOTD: If they remake OOT they need to change the Ganon fight to be how they planned it when coming up with the concept. For those who don't know, the original Ganon fight in this game was supposed to have Ganon be as large as the tower that once stood there. This would have made Ganon rivaling the size of dark souls and monster hunter bosses. Link was supposed to have to run up Ganon's arms to reach his head where the original weak point would have been. Another thing they could add, again from the OG concept of the game is to have dynamic sword fighting which allows Link to swing the sword while running around. Think of ISG but actually being able to control the sword. I'd also like to see the light temple get added to the game. In my concept of this temple, you'd be taken there, the first time you grab the master sword, and it would have seven floors. Each time you complete a floor you get teleported to the next floor and Link is a year older.

Personally, I have watched GATTACA and I can say it is a brilliant movie, the acting is great and the story is very well written from what I remember, and it highlights a lot of points about both social structures at the time, and a lot of the points on Society as a whole still ring true today, I’d highly reccomend it.

CQOTD: I would love to see the Triforce added in. The light Temple, Unicorn Fountain (with a unique great fairy,) and all the elemental items. Basically anything that was shown, and later removed, in the demos, screen shots, etc! Including the uniqueness of Fado, would love to see what they might have wanted to with her. Oh also jumping! Ahaha Either leaving it more like it is now would be cool, or more so towards how Zelda II would be! (Since OOT started as a remastered version of ZII!) Off that topic. I think the fire eyes are only in the Shadow Temple, which is something I never thought about!

I love Maximum Ride, I started rereading them over Christmas for the first time in like 15 years, still holds up!

OMG! Maximum Ride was the first big book series that I ever read. I have not heard the name in so long! I am glad that people still remember the books.

I found the Maximum Ride book series back in middle school because my best friend at the time had made fanfiction for it. It remains one of my favorite series of all time, as goofy as it is

I'm finally caught up 😂😂 hada watch old randomizers first, skipped the ones with other ppl tho, I found them not to be so much so entertaining lol, wasn't feeling them at all

QOTD: the first thing that came to my mind is to making the 7 year gap more impactful. Beyond Market and Castle, everywhere else Ganondorf feels like an inconvenience rather the overpowered thread. Kakariko Village could be right away in 'Bongo Bongo released' state, Lake Hylia could have the refugee camp for Market people, Hyrule Field should feel more destroyed than empty etc like by making Phantom Ganon a roaming enemy type that cannot be killed truly without Light Arrow (like Guardians). In that case Forest Temple could work as tutorial against Phantom Ganons. The second thing would be to open the progression a little bit more by having only Deku Tree and Forest Temple the mandatory dungeons to do in a certain order. The impact for child dungeons would be almost non-existent beyond boulders blocking the Zora River. Temples would need to have some rebuilding, and for that it would be good to add small challenges-rewards for players with items from other dungeons (Gold Skulltulas, shortcuts etc.). So in a way similar approach like in A Link Between Worlds. The last thing would be making more mini games for a child and utilizing carpenters (after they've been saved) as rebuilding something like in other places (like Goron City, Zora's Domain, Kokiri Forest and Kakariko Village). It would help to build the idea of carefree child timeline and hope in destroyed adult timeline.

CQOTD: More prizes for the Gold Skulltulas to help make the 100 mark more rewarding. Masks having effects like in Majora’s Mask (example: Goron Mask increases strength, as the Bunny Hood increases speed). More teleport songs (like one for your Kokiri House, one for the back of Lon Lon Ranch, and maybe even one for Garudo Village) for easier fast travel. More plot with the Sages outside the Dungeons (like a side quest each for Saria, Darunia, Ruto, etc.) so you get to learn more about them and the different races of Hyrule. Probably borrow some plot from the Manga like Child Link hatching Volvagia and leaving them with someone, only for Ganon to corrupt them, giving the emotional moment from the visual novel. Potentially references to Skyward Sword to tie in the Origins of the Curse of Hatred. And probably others I haven’t thought of yet.

CQOTD: New areas would be amazing. If i had to choose, Hyrule Castle which would be explored as a sneaking section instead of just the gardens. After you you meet Zelda for the first time, she gives you a seal of approval which would allow you to explore that castle freely withou sneaking, talk to some npc's like guards or servants. An extra sungeon for the light medallion would be great as well. Extra enemies, and more attacks enemies can do, and more abilities that you can perform, like in Twilight Princess. Medallions can give abilites, hopefully somethingore varied than just elemental changes to your arrows. Like summoning vines for forest, or encasing your sword in flame with fire, things like that. Beating the dungeons actually changes things. For forest temple, trees look dead or dying, and beating the temple makes them more lively. Fire temple, we can have lava poring down the cave walls of Goron city, and that stops when its beaten. Zora Domain unfreezes when you beat water temple. Before you beat Shadow temple, there are redead and Stalfos everywhere in the village, and its always night time. By beating it, all of that goes away. By beating the Spirit Temple, the desert storm goes away allowing safe travel to the spirit temple. This could potentially open a new area in the desert like an entire city for the Gerudo or something.

"I like our little Tuclan hive mind" That's a terrible mentality, but not exactly surprising that you like being a hive mind.

I'm so glad that you reminded me of GATTACA. Another great example is Star Trek. They literally mention a eugenics war, aka a war about genetic superiority. And sometimes genetically enhanced characters show up. Most infamously Kahn.

CQOTD: Quality of life improvements like we see with the fast equip for the boots and the ocarina. Also a total remap of the controller usability. Whilst the controller mapping worked great for the N64 controller, it doesn't work so great anymore for any modern game controller. Something from both points mentioned above, would be to move the camera more freely.

The one comment you read about the animal-human hybrids unlocked a core memory of Animorphs lol

QOTD: I would love graphical improvements of course, but I would also like some changes being made to the base game. For one, I think that hyrule field is way too empty and needs more characters/buildings. More side quests in the game would give it some of the positives that MM has. A way to track the main story quests and the side quests would also be helpful as when I first played it I got lost many a time. Another thing they should do is improve the grottos themselves and make them into tiny mini dungeons, almost like shrines, so they feel fresh. Lastly, I hope that we get to play during some of the cutscenes like the shadow one in kakariko with sheik.

QOTD: For a full remaster of OOT, I would want the story and overworld to feel the same, obviously with a larger and more explorable and dynamic overworld, maybe some extra towns and characters. Existing locations should be expanded and have more going on, maybe some extra minigames too. Graphics are a no brainer, if they kept with a similar style of the 3D version, it’d be perfect. As for the dungeons, maybe add some extra ones, I’d love to see the light temple realised, and maybe some more items and collectibles, but the dungeons themselves are honestly fantastic. They have great pacing and a great flow and feel, and changing them would need to be done VERY carefully, else it could hurt the game drastically. More side quests for sure, and if they made sure certain QOL things like the boot swapping from 3D was also just as smooth, the game would feel perfect. Maybe some more dynamic elements like in BOTW, but don’t make the game THAT level of Open-World. It’s too big and I feel OOT is good being more linear as Child, then becoming more open after the Forest temple, it’s a good metaphor for how childhood is more guided than adulthood, and once’s you become an adult, it’s up to you how you move through life.

CQOTD: That's hard because for me, if you changed anything about OoT it wouldn't be the same game anymore. For better or worse. At most updating combat would be my first instinct simply because this was the first step into 3D combat and upgrading that wouldn't change the game so completely imo. Otherwise I wouldn't want much changed, not even upgrading the cutscenes or character interactions because, again, it just wouldn't feel like the same game.

QOTD: I think building more of an atmosphere around the dungeon songs would be cool. Seeing more of a backstory to the songs and having them be played within the dungeons to progress could make even more a connection to the songs. Kind of how MM does with New Wave, Oath, and even Gorons lullaby.

QOTD expand the water temple so it has 10 more floors with more to do it was very short in my opinion making it more longer to complete would make it more fun

My cat was like Wtf after I cheered when you got the Iron Boots. Water Temple! Yes! CQOTD: Hyrule Field needs to be scarier after Ganondorf steals the triforce, have two or three big enemies spawn in different areas each time you load the game, and atleast one or two who make the ground shake but you don't know where they are, impending doom if you will. I think I said it before but a proper Ice Temple, there was so much potential. I'd also like to have a different dungeon for Jabu Jabu and put that elsewhere or take it out cause eh. I have thoughts about the dungeon that could replace Jabu Jabu but that is a whole long discussion. Oh and better mini games, I'm probably just bad at them or have played them so many times that I don't care for them. Would love to have more of a story behind the Poe sisters and why they are in the Forest Temple.

The Maximum Ride manga started coming out in 2009 and is unfinished with the last release being in 2015. I remember reading the first few volumes in the early 2010s and really enjoyed it. There also already is a Maximum Ride film! It came out in 2016. I have not seen it, but it apparently only covers half the first book and didn't get great reviews.

Looooove GATTACA movie. Had to watch it in school and really enjoyed it.

"We didnt make bilions in technological advances by *not* experimenting on the poor" -Lyle Lipton, Helluva Boss

Fun fact I learned recently. those eye switches that shoot fireballs at you. APPARENTLY you can shoot them with an arrow and it'll destroy it. been playing this game my entire LIFE and never knew that about them till recently

CQOTD: I think that something I'd want to change about Ocarina of Time would be to swap the bottle you get for collecting all of the big poes with a heart piece and the fourth bottle is relocated to a place where a Heart Piece was originally found. That would save the amount of trips to the Poe shop. Maybe have there be some extra bottles such as having there be up to six. I also think that a remake of Ocarina of Time should have the Hyrulien counterpart of the mayor's receptionist make an appearance as part of a new quest, such as maybe having her be part of a new sidequest to earn an empty bottle. I'm not sure what sort of quest that would be. Perhaps it could be one where she has a stomach ache and you need to get special milk from Lon Lon Ranch to make her stomach ache go away and you're given the bottle as a reward. And yes, I know that quest was in Majora's Mask, only with a different NPC, but it would make a neat addition for an Ocarina of Time remake and it would include my favorite Zelda NPC.

Qotd: if they remake ocarina of time, I’d honestly like for them to change some of the features like what they did for links awakening. For instance the iron boots, ocarina, and bunny boots (floating boots). Using the d-pad would make quality of life easier for us all. Change a few things in hyrule field. Like if they added several more grottos and redid several more grottos so everyone of them felt different. I think that would make oot feel very new and yet the same all at the same time.

As a self-published author in the UK- to answer your question about libraries, there are a number of schemes that mean we get paid royalties every time someone borrows our books (buying a book doesn't actually pay as well as people think either)

QOTD: honestly the only thing I can think of initially is adding a setting to turn off Navi hints and reminders if you want to or make it a thing like with Fi where you can ask for hints but she doesn't bug you, that would make it so much easier to get through

Finally the iron boots!

QOTD: I felt a problem with ocarina of time is that its the first foray into 3D and while a great game, theres so many areas you can easily improve on. For example, hyrule field is pretty barren and doesnt really have anything to do other than poe hunting. Lake hylia is pretty barren too. Some enemies are location specific. What I'd like to see is enemies be given better AI and movements, and be more diverse and scattered around the Hyrule world to makr it feel more alive. I don't know if you know this already but they originally had 6 different magic and 6 different magic arrows. ZFG did a video showcasing those from a beta build. Would be fun to have those added back in and environment/enemies built to work with those new magic stuff

I absolutely thought that Bombchu was Din’s fire too!

QOTD: Hypothetically speaking, if Nintendo were to pull that move, here are some things I would like: 1) The implementation of sword techniques (much like Twilight Princess and Minish Cap). Techniques like: Sword Beam, a Finisher, a dash attack, counter attacks. Maybe techniques for a two-handed weapon (ex: Giant Knife, Biggoron Sword). 2) A Light Temple. There are implications that a 'Light Temple' was originally planned, but was never made. The Temple would be inside the Sacred Realm and serve as a "Training Arc" for Link during the 7 years. 3) A much bigger Overworld. With current tech and thanks to BOTW & TOTK, I should be possible. 4) They need to add elements to make the Adult timeline environment seem much more dangerous/grim. This is a world dominated by Ganondorf and plunged in eternal darkness, after all. Ex: have more enemies within the Overworld, make Ruined Hyrule Town a challenging place to trek, have more sidequests involving NPCs Link previously met and how they were affected during those 7 years. Show how Hyrule was affected DURING Link's absence. 5) Have the medallions give you abilities at the cost of your magic meter. Seems the medallions were originally going to be used as actual items. Imagine abilities like: -Fire medallion = Applies a "burning effect" to your sword. Any hit enemies slowly loose health -Shadow medallion = Invisibility -Light medallion = Illuminate pitch-black rooms -Spirit medallion = Be able to scope what's ahead of you

QOTD: One thing I would definitely like is the finishing of the light temple dungeon. It was theoretically supposed to be the dungeon for getting the light arrows, but my i want to put my own spin in it and not only make it the final dungeon before ganon’s castle, but also have it be Rauru’s temple with the light arrows as the key item. Instead of him giving you the medallion after pulling the master sword, he’d give it to you after completing this temple. The main gimmick would be a more advanced version of the spirit temple, instead of going through as child link and then adult link, you would be switching between them within the dungeon to solve puzzles. Or since this temple would be replacing the Sheik reveal, you could have a playable sheik and go through the temple with both of them and the reveal would be after the dungeon is complete and then ganondorf kidnaps her at the end.

CQOTD: I would really like to see a remake or a reimagining of OOT. Nintendo allways seams to work with the concept of time so I would really lime to see that. Just imagine a World as big and filled as TotK/BOTW Map, where Link needs to work with his future self to save Hyrule.

CQotD: If they remade OoT from the ground up, I'd want them to rework how the story is told. Obviously add voice acting, but also reimagine some story beats. For example: in the OoT manga, we see that Zelda was able to evade Ganondorf's detection for the 7 years that Link was in the Sacred Realm by serving Ganondorf undercover *as Sheik.* Maybe they could add some sort of cutscene or section after obtaining medallions where you PLAY AS SHEIK serving Ganondorf while trying to secretly help the hero in some way like in the first 2 Paper Mario games' chapter interludes. I don't necessarily want it to match the manga story exactly, (I think the game's take on Volvagia is cooler and makes more sense than the manga's adaptation.) but make the story have new ways to surprise me and let the gameplay have some new and creative twists too. Also, give Nabooru some more development!

CQOTD: If they added an optional temple that is the lost Light Temple that was supposed to be for Rauru. Give us a cool item like the Tycoon Wallet.

I remember how I discovered ZOOTR was in December 2018 I was in 4th grade and I was on youtube on my moms computer and I grew up playing ocarina of time on my 3DS and it was one of the first games I beat and I really liked it. And on youtube I saw an ocarina of time randomizer series made by this youtuber zelda master. And he uploaded a new part every day but he stopped and after a week of waiting for the next episode I thought he quit. So I went to youtube search and typed in Ocarina of time randomizer and found zootr by attacking toucans and I binged all of zootr 1 and all of zootr 2 in late 2018 and early 2019. Then years later in may 2021 It was boring becuase of covid and I found my old 3ds and decided to replay oot. Then I went on youtube to rewatch zootr because it brought back nostalgia from before the pandemic. I binged zootr 1, zootr 2, zootr 3, and zootr 4, during the end of 6th grade and during the summer. Then in fall 2021 I saw attacking toucans started zootr 3d lets play and I looked foward every day to watch the new episode. Now I am in high school and I am excited when I see the new zootr 5 episode in my subscription section on youtube. Ocarina of time and watching attacking toucans zootr videos brings back so much nostalgia from a better time when I had nothing when I had much less responsibilities. Right now I am actually playing ocarina of time randomizer my self and I am having so much fun playing it I love how random the game is even when I get bluppies and recover hearts I still have fun playing.

Maximum ride was such a good book, haven't heard of someone talk ab it for yearrrs

CQOTD: For a full OOT remake, I feel like almost every temple and major should get a complete rework/redesign to fit the more mobile and exploration-style gameplay they seem to be going with. I feel like it would really help the world feel more alive and lived in if you saw characters like Talon roaming around and doing their daily routines or explored around enough to find treasures around Hyrule field. Either that, or potentially add in some kind of gimmick to both Adult and Child Link (ie: Child link has less stamina but can run a bit faster or Adult link has better combat techniques) to differentiate them besides exclusive items.

CQOTD: I know this has its advantages, and is standard for Zelda titles, but the fact that defeating Ganon just resets the game really confused and annoyed me the first time I played. I'd really love if Nintendo made a post-Ganon version of Hyrule with different side quests etc that you could explore!

QOTD: If there a OoT remake, i'd like it to have a temple with similar mechanics like the Temple of the ocean king in Phantom Hourglass. I know it will probably be an unpopular opinion, but the concept of having to play stealth in a cursed spooky temple while carefully planning your actions and managing your remaining time, is something i haven't really found anywhere else in other zelda games. The execution in Phantom Hourglass wasn't perfect that's for sure, but with today's technology i'm certain the concept itself could work incredibly well in a 3D environment. It could fit for a new version of the shadow temple, or even be used as an additional dungeon to obtain the Light medallion in the temple of time, therefore reinforcing the "timed" idea of the dungeon.

*CQOTD* : i would want nintendo to make ura zelda. everything they wanted oot to be in development, let it be

CQOTD: I think what Nintendo did with Ocarina of Time when they remaster it for the 3D was really good, it still kept the original game even keeping all the original glitches, but they improved the graphics and so many quality of life like having Iron Boots / Hover Boots be a item, making the Ocarina item have it own dedicated button and having more buttons to equip more items. Fans loved Ocarina of Time 3D and even ask Nintendo to remaster that version for the Switch.

QOTD: - Expand the story through context clues or discover-ables. The reason Link is orphaned in OOT was because of the "war" mentioned, but the war is only mentioned off-handed in one cutscene. - More sword techniques for link -UI updates like randomizer has

Iron boots and Golden Zora Scale? Now you can get the check for the lab!

CQOTD: Whilst I personally agree with you on the pay to win aspect of games, for some older people with families, other responsibilities and not much time to play games, it can open up aspects that would be nye on impossible to experience with the amount of time they actually get to play. The big problem is that, unfortunately, most of the pay to win aspects are aimed at children who might not appreciate the value of a dollar and just want to have a skin or aesthetic item that their mates don't have.

21:50 YOOO Maximum Ride is my all time favorite book series. There IS a movie, but it is not good at all! There was also a manga-adaptation of it too of the first couple books

11:51 to the German commander - Nuts - Signed the American commander

CQOTD: In an OoT remake, I'd like to see the mini-dungeons (Ice cavern, Bottom of the Well, and Gerudo Training Grounds) turned into full dungeons, as well as the Light Temple from the beta added. I'd also like to see grottos get a full overhaul to make them worth exploring. I'd also like to see Zora's Domain thaw after beating the water temple, or by shooting everything in the Domain with the Fire Arrows you collect right after completing the water temple. For just quality of life upgrades, I'd like more fluent animations, a faster default run speed, smoother first-person aiming, and a remastered soundtrack. (sorry, kinda ranted a bit)

QQOTD: If nintendo remade all of oot all I'd want is some simple cut content stuff, like maybe a slightly expanded castle town, well, general slightly expanded areas, just adding more things to do, graphics wise idk what I'd want, i loved the 3DS remake, I'd love to see similar controls come back to the 3ds version, maybe gerudo town as child link? If it had purpose? the wind and ice temples that were cut? Perhaps more things like journals and notes that sprinkle just a bit more lore and world building. I must be honest these are just small things, I love Oot as it is and if nintendo remade it from the ground up I'd be overjoyed, but hey ho, it was pretty perfect as is and I'll always have my incredibly fond memories of it. Great video

18:50 dont know why skip that check, also above that is chest when water is at mid level but he hasnt finished water temple so maybe he go back? Also gold scale being in water temple, meant he had to find iron boots to get into water temple Also, Nice for being James Patterson fan, his books are awesome

CQoTD: When Dragon Quest XI was remade for Switch they added in the option to play the game in 2D like the old school DQ games. They remake OoT with better visuals and some quality of life changes for the new crowd, but remade the game in 2D as well, that’d be two birds with one stone. Only part of the Zelda fanbase who aren’t happy there are the open world crowd who get all the love lately. If it’s just a 3D version, make the combat similar to Breath and Tears, gussy up the visuals, make the masks actually serve a purpose like in Majora.

CQOTD: I'd want a complete reimagining of the game, mainly focused on the feel of the world: landscapes, environment detail, graphical effects, NPC behaviors. Make it feel like Link is actually real and standing in a real grand Hyrule. Not the same maps with the same contents, but the same large-scale story and characters sparsely laid out in a new world. I'm imagining an E3 trailer where the camera starts showing a farmer's boot pressing into the soil as he kneels to pick some crops. The viewer doesn't even know it's a Zelda game. The camera gradually shows more of the environment, then maybe Epona, and eventually Link. Only halfway through the trailer when someone mentions an ocarina does the viewer realize it's OoT.

CQOTD: to be honest I'd like them to add that light temple that they couldn't implement into the original and flesh out Rauru's backstory a bit more as he's basically only available for that one longass cutscene. Perhaps make the chamber of sages a room you can reach anytime as an adult to talk to the sages you saved and have them give feedback on your adventure. Also fix the wood in the game some pieces of wood look hookshootable but they aren't and I think that's sad

CQOTD: If they remake, then they should collaborate with all other Zelda OoT creators such as RwanLink. They will bring a new and interesting creative perspective to the remake. They should also add a lot of places to just chill and enjoy the environment. A VR version would be super cool. The temples should be designed like actual temples and not like dungeons. They could add a 'Zelda Pantheon' into the universe, like Din for fire temple, Nayru for water temple and Farore for forest temple and add 'festivals or seasons' of celebration where the people of Hyrule celebrate certain occasions. Certain items such as the light arrows and Golden Gauntlets should be acquired earlier and transformation masks should be added. It would be fun to see the mask salesman making plans to go and research Majora. Child link should be allowed to ride Epona and the medalions should give special effects; even if these effects are only possible after beating the game. It would be interesting to view a more realistic kind of OoT like a remake that looks like Twilight Princess. The backstory of Link, from the war where his mother ran away with him to story of his father would be great. Giving Link a voice would be either perfect or a disaster; so that would be a risky bet. Adding an already built in randomizer would be interesting, but I would rather the randomizer be with logic and that there would be an option to activate or disable the different glitches in this game. Multiplayer should be cool; but I would rather not have one in OoT. But a companion like an animal would be nice, because most of the exploring is done alone. Petting dogs and cats must become possible in OoT. Chickens should stay the way they are though.

My one argument For pay to win is situational. My friends play FF14, ive been listening the whole Playthrough as the 5 of them go through the entire story but cant really join them because i work 50 to 60 hour weeks. This weekend i had the chance to play and found i could buy my way to EXACTLY where they were. I didn't have to try and frantically, impossibly catch up.

CQOTD: Other than quality of life improvements just like in the 3DS remake first and foremost, new sidequests, dungeon(s) - optional if you don't want to change the main game - and potentially even item(s), but one of the changes I'd like to see the most is actually rescuing areas in the adult timeline, especially thawing out Zora's Domain! 1:50 I can see where people spending money on microtransactions are coming from when it comes to new characters, skins etc. because they like them and I've even done it myself to some extent (although I much prefer games without those), but literally paying to win has always been a huge turnoff for me no matter if it's videogames, collectible card games or whatever else. 6:15 Wow this room was loaded and hilarious that you had just mentioned getting lots of keys for that temple! 8:01 I'm wondering because I don't know for sure, wouldn't buying the Zora Tunic instead of finding it be in logic? 18:53 You forgot to check this room, I think there's at least one check inside it. 23:18 They most certainly don't like that people can read their things without buying them, but at the same time it's a way to advertise them leading to more sales so in the end it probably balances out.

CQOTD: I've been thinking about an ocarina of time remake/ complete reimagining for a long time. So firstly, I would want the map to be bigger. I would basically want the map to be similar to twilight princess. A larger lake hylia with the bridge from twilight princess, a larger hyrule field, a full city sized castle town, more towns, a bigger kakoriko village, larger lost woods etc. And a fully explorable hyrule castle. But I would also want zoras domain to be moved to the top of the map like in twilight princess. And I would want snowpeak manor before it became ruins. Like maybe the carpenters are building it when you're a child, and it is complete when you're an adult. Afterall, snowpeak was a fortress for the hylian army. I would also love for the scrapped light and wind temples to make their debut. I know these temple ideas made their way into wind waker and twilight princess. Also the field as a child shouldn't have fucking peahats or stallchildren. It made no sence to be where there are no enemies on the field as an adult, after ganondorf has taken over. So maybe they'd be stalfos, wolfos and such on the field, or fields as an adult. Also, going in to the full city sized castle town idea, full camera control in hyrule castle city. And I'd want it to be bustling and npc's actually walking about and doing stuff, and not on coded paths. And if they could find a way to make the end of ocarina tie in better with the start of majora's mask, like maybe you actually get to ride epona out of hyrule. I think that would sick. But my ultimate want is for their to be a third quest, after majoras mask. Link joins the army and has to fight in the gerudo hylian war (a thing in the lore. It's why zora in TP are so militarised). This was a bloody conflict the gerudo, led by ganondorf, and the forces of hyrule consisting of the hylians, the gorons and the zora. Lon lon ranch became an outpost. And at the end, link is critically injured after fighting ganondorf without the master sword. Ganondorf is taken prisoner, and eventually taken to the arbiter's grounds once they build it. It was built (in the lore) to torture and kill gerudo after the war. And then link, not being able to pass on his sword skills to his new born child with malon, dies with regret. This is how he becomes the hero's shade. The gameplay for such a game might actually work better a hyrule warriors game. But that's what I want. Maybe there are smaller things that I forgot to mention, but that's the overall jist of it

CQOTD: i would love the dodge and flurry rush system in OoT. it feels so good when you land one

CQOTD: they should update the combat. It could really need an update. BoTW and Tears of the Kingdom are already better vut they could make ot darker and Souls-like in this one it would really fit! That way they cab really overhaul the bosses! You could actually havexit be a drawn out climatic fight you could actually die in. It would really make it feel like Link obercame something! They could keep the fights gimmic but then make it so it's an easier OPTION for the fight, but make using your items optional. Then make the Ganon fight be more lile a really difficult Souls-like Boss you die on. Make it feel like Ganon is similar to link using different Magic and techniques that mirror that of links.

Maximum Ride is AMAZING, the manga is incredibly good and the characters are so accurate to how I imagined them in the books BUT there actually is a movie already and it is so so bad unfortunately

QOTD: Id want a game on the scale of Breath of the wild, with its open world possibilities, but with proper large scale dungeons and items like skyward sword. SS had some of the best dungeons and the ability to find and upgrade items was so neat. I get why in the open world games they give you a host of abilities right out the gate so you can get right into exploring, but it makes the game feel front loaded. Restricting the player to having the basics in the beginning and building that suite of items to unlock new ways to play by beating the dungeons is part of the fun. Imagin BOTW with the clawshots or iron boots. It unlocks completely new avenues of gameplay.

CQOTD: it's pretty basic but the only other feature i'd want from another zelda is the wind waker/twilight princess boomerang lock-on system. it feels like the boomerang was supposed to make the slingshot pretty much obsolete for young link in a lot of areas, but it's still so annoying to line it up for undamaged skulltulas and without the multi-hit system that the gamecube games use there are only a handful of conventional puzzles which you actually have to use it for instead of the slingshot.

QOTD: I would love to see Nintendo make OOT feel more realistic like TP, or COD. They could add more music that wasn’t heard in the original, or even add the option of riding Epona to any location in the “open world” like BOTW or Tears. Also have the option to add Randomizers or Master Quest + would be cool, with new dungeons, bosses, or areas never explored in a 3D environment to do nods to the older Zelda game Easter eggs.

CQOTD: I'd love to see Nintendo add the ability to use your sword underwater.

I predict blue tunic I side water temple so your underwater will be time gated and force you to rush😂

When you fight Dark Link, you can actually stun him with Deku nuts.

CQOTD: Personally, for an OOT full blown remake, there's several stuff that I would love for them to do. For more playability, I would love if they had something like Dampe's Dungeons from the Link's Awakening remake. The fact Zelda hasn't made a "Zelda Dungeon Maker" beyond that is just such a missed opportunity and that was so much fun of a little sidemode. More things that Id like for them to do: Make the Golden Gauntlets and Golden Scale have actually more use and merit to obtain. The fact that they have such little needed utility is wild - heck I am pretty sure the Golden Scale isnt even needed for anything that the iron boots can't accomplish themselves. And for the Golden Skulltulas I think there should be an actual big reward, rather than a reward that is basically useless by the time you get to it. Like yeah, I know Nintendo is known for that with their collectables: but I just think there being some good item as a reward for your dutiful collecting would make it actually worth saving the last cursed man. Also, make the map bigger with more stuff to do, cause truthfully the OOT map is pretty small, but understandably so. And maybe there's more mini-dungeons and the like to do with the expanded, more side-questlines. I love zelda dungeon delving and Im sure they could put some neat progression behind some beautifully designed dungeons.

CQOTD: 26:49 I think it would be interesting if the temple of time was a full dungeon, and if they added more to do in the overworld, maybe even have a time loop like majoras mask, but instead of ending in three days it cycles through events over a week period. I don’t know, maybe even like breath of the wild, where the NPC’s react to the time of day and world events. They could do so much, just don’t change the story at all, or gameplay to much.

QOTD: If they really did do a 100% ground up remake of OOT, I would like them to find a way to make items like the golden scale and ice arrows, Basically the optional items that were not as useful in the original, more useful. like maybe a dungeon that required the golden scale, but NOT the iron boots to get through, or a part of a dungeon that you have to use scarecrow's song to summon pierre to make a chain of hookshot targets to cross a large gap

QOTD: I think there's a lot of improvements they could make. OoT is a great game on it's own, but everything can be improved. I could see a much vaster Hyrule with more towns, sidequests and NPCs for Link to interact with alongside a fast travel system (like the Song of Soaring from Majora''s Mask) to cut down the leg work. Hyrule is described as a great, sprawling kingdom. Why then does it only consist of a handful of townships with the vast majority of it being so... empty? Expand Lon Lon Ranch into a full Farmstead. Livestock and horse rearing takes manpower far greater than a lazy father, his pre-teen daughter, and a single angry and ambitious farmhand. Castle town could be larger than just a single market square, a couple of back alleys, and a temple no one but Link seems to go to. Hyrule field is massive by N64 standards but could be made larger and more vibrant with a few more towns, caverns, and ruins to explore. There should be a few of these since the Kingdom apparently endured a massive civil war not too long before the game's start. Speaking of the war. They could easily expand upon the lore and storyline. Allow Link to interact more with the characters he meets and learn their tales and history of the various peoples. The king of Hyrule established some pretty tight bonds with the leaders of the Goron and Zora peoples. How'd that go down? Link being something of an outsider to the kingdom would allow that to be inserted easily into the narrative because... he wouldn't know the history of the land or what happened. This is doubly true because the civil war in particular relates to Link personally. His mother was a casualty of the war and it was because she entrusted him to the Deku Tree that he grew up among the Kokiri. I feel like the poor guy would want to learn where he came from. Another thing they could possibly do is add a couple more dungeons. The original plan was for OoT to also include a wind and ice dungeon along with a respective sage for each but they were cut due to time constraints. The only remnants we have of those are the Ice Cavern, and the Forest and Water Ganon trials being wind and ice themed. I'd love to see those brought back in full for a remake... perhaps with a couple of original characters to serve as the sages? These are all things that they could do without compromising what made OoT great in the first place. Everything people loved about the original would require very little changes, but the stuff that's hinted at but not really addressed by the game itself could finally be brought to light.

Next time you play pot sanity, crate sanity, beehive sanity, u should enable texture unchecked, it helps alot

Cqotd: an option to play base game ocarina of time or all zelda dungeon mode, where every single dungeon from every game is in one game. With getting all the items from each respective zelda game. Of course, the map would have to be super sized, maybe 1.5 times to 2 times the size of the breath of the wild/tears of the kingdom map, and like totk would have multiple layers of the map, placing dungeons whare that would make sense, like the underground dungeons, the surface dungeons, the ocean dungeons, and the sky dungeons. You could go the gorn mines to get the bow so you can skip parts of the forest temple. You could get the roc's cape to skip sections of other dungeons, so on and so forth. I think that would be really cool. However, I know they would never do this because the zelda timeline would be just destroyed. Edit: I just made a new zelda game but attached it to ocarina of time, I did not mean for it to get this out of hand.

CQOTD: Honestly, I don't think OoT should be touched at the core, as it seems pretty complete as is. However, it could be interresting to somehow give more purpose to currently "underutilized" aspects of the game, like grottos, the entirety of hyrule field and certain unused items (like ice/fire arrows). There could maybe be more optinal challenges, side quests or even dungeons. The scrapped temple of light or some kind of wind temple could be possible. Having a "wind temple" could also somehow get the Orni into the game.

QOTD: I have two ideas for a potential OoT remake: Aside from some QoL changes I'd like a Second Quest very much, but not any Second Quest. Nintendo should still have access to Ura Zelda or what was already done (though Miyamoto claimed once that Ura was actually finished, even if if it didn't get released after all) and rework it into a Second Quest, if I recall that was the original plan anyway. Second idea is a follow-up to Majora's Mask, telling the story of the Hero of Time becoming the White Wolf, setting everything in motion for his descendant.

QOTD: Add in blood moon, updated graphics, voice acting, siege challenges, Epona upgrades, the moded wallet, add in that Royal Armor that reduces damage to 0 and reduces rupees instead, add in fighting techniques from Twilight Princess.

CQOTD: I'd like to see a fourth day added to Majora's Mask. After you beat the game you'd be able to interact with the world after saving it and the interactions are depended on the actions of your last cycle.

CQOTD: I would want them to add a sort of dark flashback when you get to the bottom of the well detailing how bongo bongo stole the lens of truth and him being caught and having it end with a scream and the sound of his hands being chopped off

Calling the us a first world country was the best joke you made in years😂

GATTACA is a great movie :-) Notice the title is made of A,C,G,T .... names of the 4 base pairs in DNA

QOTD : Id like them to add ; Ray tracing (wuld make the mirror shield cool and add more mirror light puzzles) Motion control option for sword if u like that Motion control pointing for hookshot n bow (itd feel cool stretching ur arm out for the hookshot) Live Orchestra music Extra dungeon in the temple of time for the Master Sword Boots toggle More outfits like TOTK so u can have diff play styles More enemies, buildings etc in Hyrule Field & make it bigger. Make the fishing mini game waaay too legit like a real fishing simualtor 😂

CQOTD: I'd very much like to see more dungeons that give challenge while making use of more items such as the ice arrows or more spells like the medallions were originally suppose to be.
