As we all are very well aware of, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time was one of the greatest games of all time.
Lately, Majora’s Mask has come to step out of the shadows, and reclaim a position people think it should have had a very long time ago. That in other people’s opinions and perspectives it was second only to Ocarina of Time, If not better. People are less and less focusing on the main point that Ocarina of Time was one of the first and most prominent game in the Zelda Franchise, and more on the actual aspects of the game, which brings me to the question, Is Ocarina of Time finally past it’s golden age, and is Majora‘s Mask ready to surpass it?
Many Ocarina of Time lovers are bias, simply because of the fact it was either the first game they played or the first 3D Zelda. It seems that in the deep analysis fans have today, Ocarina of Time is getting less popular, and different Zelda games are getting more appreciated for their ingenuity and story lines.
Was Ocarina of Time only so popular because it was the only one of it’s kind? If we look closely at Majora’s Mask, it had an extremely dark and creepy feel, and an amazing story. Much similar to the things that made Ocarina of Time so great. Sure, Majora’s Mask was a bit of a smaller game, but it brought many new things to the table. While Ocarina of Time had an abundance of Dungeons and little Side Questing, Majora’s Mask had little Dungeons but many more Side Quests. Both games also have memorable Characters, but people seem to remember the ones from Majora’s Mask, simply because the side quests, and the feelings of impeding doom brought you so close to them.
So, Was Ocarina of Time rightly placed on the Leader board for so many years? Or is it simply a matter of the masses, and opinions.
It could also be the Ocarina of Time is past it's golden age it is held for so long, it's popularity is finally waning.
So what are your thoughts or Opinions?
EDIT: No, I am not basing it soley on the fact it is MM Month. I seem to have been noticing, not just this month, Ocarina of Time is starting to fall a bit behind.
