With wind waker? While Majoras Mask exists? Sometimes I wonder if we even played the same Zelda series
Especially considering Windwaker fits the Zelda canon arguably more than any other entry, especially in relation to OoT.
As for whether or not I like sequels.... it really depends. In order for a sequel to be a good sequel the previous game needs to set up the concept for the sequel. This is why WW is far better as a sequel than MM. At the end of OoT ganon promises to exterminate the descendants of the sages and Zelda, clearly setting up for a sequel. Windwaker flows perfectly from that setup into the game. Majoras mask just kinda said “oh yeah link just kinda went off and did everything Zelda didn’t want him to do at the end of OoT.” The child timeline always existed, but it was never really set up as something that was going to be extended upon. This is why TP is better as a sequel to MM than to OoT.
Speaking of TP, I feel like a sequel to it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world, but only if it’s focused on the hero’s shade and building upon the hero of time narrative. It was one of the biggest redeeming qualities of the otherwise crapfest that was TP and Nintendo just refused to capitalize on it.
As for the other sequels.... eh. LBW has literally no reason to exist canonically and makes no sense as a sequel. LA, while a masterpiece in its own right, doesn’t quite make it clear that it’s a sequel to LttP. The oracle games are kind of in the same boat as LA, minus the masterpiece part. PH is a weird case. WW had the potential for an amazing sequel and what we got was something that didn’t expand upon its predecessor at all. It was a good game, just not the sequel WW deserved. ST on the other hand absolutely fit the bill. It was the perfect sequel story wise, it expanded upon both of its predecessors in a way that merged the two together, even though not a single one of them shared the same villain. It ended out the Windwaker saga, as I like to call it, in a way that’s satisfying, yet still allowing for expansion later on if need be.
So whether or not I like sequels really depends on if the previous game set up for one. That’s one of the reasons why I’m not too excited for BotW2 and would much rather like a sequel to TP or a prequel to ST.
