RPG is leveling up of some kind through experience. That is the definition. It is not abstract. Games can have RPG elements, but it does not make them RPGs. LoZ is not an RPG, because Link's improvements are at certain points in the story, and have nothing to do with experience gained in...

As a 21 YO, I thought I was going to get schooled in LoZ history by people who were older than 8 when OoT came out. Instead, I'm surrounded by people who couldn't talk yet!
11:30 AM Rolled off the couch
12:15 PM Climbed back onto the couch
2:00 PM Jumped from the couch to the kitchen and tried to make toast
2:45 PM Realized the toast was burnt, started to heat up leftover corn
4:00 PM Noticed leftover corn was bad, complained about it...
I major in Information Technology and minor in Computer Science. In high school I focused on foreign language and public speaking, thinking that I would teach English to non-native speakers. Instead, my true calling was technology. It took one class my senior year of HS to realize that, as...
I want to see the chest be an enemy that appears all over a game after a certain point. Perhaps its first appearance could be a miniboss in the boss key chest.
I like OoT Adult Link most. I want to play a mature hero, not a cartoon. LoZ has great stories that get me around the cartoon thing, but I am even happier when the cartoon gets out of the way and lets me play a Hero that resembles the grand universe I'm saving.
I used to think it was great that I would still have the save right before the final boss, so I could do it over and over. Now, however, OoT 3D has a feature that allows you to redo bosses for better times built in. With that in existence perhaps it is time to start a new post-winning gameplay...
Link is the Hero. The "Legend of Zelda" (in game) is that Link pwns the baddies. Why would you create an adventure legend about a large army winning? It would suck, and I wouldn't buy it. It would take control from the player, and the PC would no longer be the driving force behind the...
The entire game (OoT) scared the bejeebus out of me when I was a kid. I can't remember a part of that game I didn't chicken out of the first time when I was in elementary school.
I would like to see MM continue to follow OoT wherever it goes. I think it is about time MM got a Master Quest, though not yet on par with the difficulty of OoT3D's MQ.
If monsters are allowed, ReDead. However, if we only count "characters", I'd go with the little girl that appears in the Lost Woods during the OoT Biggoron sequence.
"Everybody becomes a Stalfos. Stalfos. Everybody." Creepy.
I got Ocarina of Time for Christmas, but my N64 was broken at the time. I opened the game's box and hid some of the things it included, in order to persuade my parents to get a new N64 instead of sell the games back. (I was very young, and that was logic to me.)
Darunia is clearly the governer of California. From his build (contrasted with those of other Gorons) we can tell that he is a body builder. He's moved on, however, to be the leader of his community. His fame comes from neither because they are overshadowed by an amazing movie career: in a...
I will admit that my Zelda experience is somewhat limited, and that my answer is rather typical, though maybe for an atypical reason. The hardest dungeon I have experienced is the Water Temple from OoT. Now here's the atypical reason: the Water Temple's difficulty scales up if you have to quit...
1. Final Fantasy
2. Guild Wars
3. Legend of Zelda
I know a lot of you expect LoZ to be higher, but I've played every single Final Fantasy to date. Guild Wars, however has been my new drug since it came out. I did play LoZ before either of them, but at a certain point...
snakeb0t is a bunch of reasoning rolled into one thing. I love Metal Gear Solid, and the main characters are all code-named Snake in some way. Additionally, I have the rare ability to unhinge my jaw like that of a snake; this ability scared the bejebus out of an X-ray technician once. I...
Having played a lot of games where Link's shouts and grunts can be heard, I know that he has a voice already. Additionally, in OoT and other titles, you can choose dialog options which can only be assumed to be the things Link says once you choose them. The way I see it, Link has a voice, and...
I'm going with Redead. I like that the way they behave changes between child and adult Link in OoT, and it really matches my own opinions of them over time. When I first got OoT for Christmas years and years ago, the Redead scared the living crap out of me and I would play the song or run...
There have to be two categories to truly answer this question:
1. The Water Temple is the hardest to figure out how to do.
2. The Fire Temple is the hardest to actually do. (Second the Volvagia comments above)
I would think using the Hookshot and Hover Boots in extra places just to make it easier spoils the spirit of the minimalist run. You might as well pull the lense out in those places.
I voted for Ruto. She actually gets her hands dirty (wet?) and steps into more than one dungeon to try to get the job done before you even arrive.
I can, however, see why people would vote for Darunia. The dude's a beast. A sexy, sexy beast.
