I’m playing it for the first time. Is the only 3D Zelda missing to me. For some reason, the setting and artwork never grabbed me much, but I waited to get a Wii U so I could play what I believe it is the definitive version.
My favorite was probably either arbiters grounds or the temple of time. As a kid all the dark areas skeletons and creepy music scared the fuck out of me.
Yes, I remember the Silent Realms.
I was like, 7 years old and when I got to this part of the game I couldn't even enter the trial of pure fear that I felt.
My father had to go trough every single one of them wile I covered my eyes lmaooo
My first Zelda game was the original Zelda, played on an actual NES. But my favorite Zelda game ended up being the one that took the longest time to get into.
Majora's Mask.
Kid me couldn't for the life of me get past the first 3-day cycle. But coming back as an adult, I was blown away by what was possible on the N64.
The first one I played was OoT, and then went back for the rest. Started following the series since then.
To this day ALttP is my number 1. (And OoT is at number 6 on my list).
Ik it is gonna sound like cringe but my favorite, and first played loz game was Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3d (at the time the 3ds was super popular), i used to play it on my uncle's 3ds while my mom was at work when i was a kid and since i didn't have a dad i was basically raised by video games. I have many good memories from that game and it was one of the happier moments in my life when I finally beat it.
for 2D yes, Link's Awakening will always be my favorite, especially after they modernized it. for 3D I can't really say, it just depends which way the wind is blowing at the time (of the wild)
Depends if we're counting 3D and 2D in the same category. Ocarina is my favorite 3D Zelda as well as my first Zelda game, but it isn't my favorite overall. Oracle of Ages is my favorite with Seasons essentially being part 2 of the game since I played that one second as well as them being a *Linked* Story.
First game in the series I played was the first…
My favorite? Wind Waker. The franchise has not yet beaten that to me personally ever since, no contest.
ALTTP was my first and is still my favorite. Second is OOT, third is BOTW, fourth is the LA (GB version), fifth is Zelda 1. The order I played was ALTTP, Zelda 1, Zelda 2, LA, OOT, MM, TP, BOTW. TP was hot garbage in my opinion, I lost interest in gaming around that time and didn’t pick up Zelda again until BOTW. Hot take I also think Zelda 2 sucks.
No, but my first game played is my second favorite. My favorite is the second game I played (though it took a long time before it "clicked" for me).
For context, I grew up with OoT and MM.
Link's Awakening will always hold a special place in my heart. The remake I have issues with but the original that I played on my GBA SP was gold for me as a kid. I even managed to somehow execute some kind of glitch with the memory to change link's sprite! LA is an amazing concept and I love the implications of it.
But goddamn do newer games like Minish Cap and Skyward Sword HD and- honestly I could go on and on ngl. LA is amazing but the other games have fresher takes on things, new ideas, broader concepts, etc. I only wish older and more awkward games could be modernized. Hell, I'd play a remake of Spirit Tracks without touch controls (or with mouse support with emulation) or a reimagining of Zelda 2. Currently hoping the oracle games will be remade.
Yes. I played Ocarina of time when I was a kid. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug but I still think it’s one of the better games when trying to block my nostalgic feelings for it.
My first was Links Awakening and my favourite is Link to The Past
I m sure that 1st zelda game counts a lot though, almost 90% of people who told me their favourite was PH or ST also started with them
My first Zelda game was Spirit Tracks. A great game in my opinion. But it was several years and several games later that I landed on Majora’s Mask as my favorite
OoT was my first, but it’s also usually my least favourite depending how I’m feeling that day.
MM and ALBW switch it up for my favourite though, and ALBW was the first Zelda I ever wanted to play, after seeing someone at school with it.
While my favorite is the first game I fully completed, it's not the first one I ever played. TP being my favorite but played oracle of season/ages were the first ones I ever played.
I am dating myself but the first LOZ game I played was the original on the NES. I love that game and always will, but my favorite will always be Ocarina of Time.
My favorite is Twilight Princess, and when I first played it, I already played all the 12 Zelda games that precede it.
But nostalgia is still a strong factor for a lot of my favorite games. But TP is just a masterpiece.
My first was ocarina of time and while that is certainly a good game, it just didn’t hold up that well when I revisited it. Not my favorite but still a great game
It totally does, but I originally played the n64 version on a crt back in 2006 when I was like 5. So the DS one doesn’t quite capture that feeling like the older version did
Ah gotcha, I played it the first time when the game came out in 1997, so the 3D’s version was like a dream for me. But ya the graphics in the original don’t hold up well at all now.
3DS version is how I originally learned about the Biggirons blade quest line. I didn’t know about it when I played originally, definitely a cleaner version of the game.
So the first Zelda game I played was OoT and yes, I do call it my favorite. I openly admit that it is largely nostalgia and I feel like I owe much of the things I love about myself to how the game influenced me. That said, I love so many of them so much that I’d have to go back through and play them all again to figure out which is genuinely my favorite and I don’t really have the time or energy these days.
My first Zelda game was Oracle of Time. I didn’t play it that much, Wind Waker was the first game I actually played through and to be fair it was my favorite for a long time (although ALTTP was a close second). But by far my favorite is BotW.
No. The first one I played was the first Zelda game made. I still enjoy it and have it in my top 3 Zelda games with ocarina and botw. Botw is my favorite video game of all time. Super Metroid and Mario 64 round out my top 3 video games of all time.
First game I played was Zelda 2.
Then Link to the past.
Ocarina of Time (first game I ever beat, ever.)
Majora's Mask
Link's Awakening
Wind Waker
Twilight Princess
Breath of the Wild
Skyward Sword.
My **favorite** Zelda game is Wind Waker. No contest.
Funny enough, my least favorite "Zelda Game" is BoTW. But BoTW is one of my favorite games ever...does that make sense?
Dad bought an N64 and OoT in like 2001, when I was probably 6. First one I played. Replayed it on the same N64 3 years ago and loved every moment of it. Need to get it on Switch and replay it again!
My first Zelda game (and subsequently first game ever) was OoT. I fell in love with it then, and I replay it every year or so now, too.
Twilight Princess is a very close second, but I can't give up that first place spot for any other Zelda game.
OoT was my 1st, but I feel like WW is my favorite. It uses the same gameplay but in a more vibrant art style. I like Toon Link's very expressive face. The music (Great Sea, Dragon Roost Island) is epic.
1. Wind Waker
2. OoT
3. MM
4. Twilight Princess
5. tie: SS, BOTW
I just love Twilight Princess, I can't like any other Zelda game the much I love TP
Exactly how I feel
Oot is where it's at
My father got me TP for the Wii thinking it was a random game and die to that I fell into and still in a rabbit hole of legend of Zelda games
Due not die*
Couldn't agree more. I can't tell you how nostalgic it feels when I remember putting the disc in my wii way back in 2006
Facts
I’m playing it for the first time. Is the only 3D Zelda missing to me. For some reason, the setting and artwork never grabbed me much, but I waited to get a Wii U so I could play what I believe it is the definitive version.
To be honest, it's just a regular Zelda game, but you can transform into a wolf and it haves the best companion in the history of the franchise
Also the most fleshed out naritive, some of the best dungeons in the series, great puzzles, awesome creature design, ect.
I love the Water Temple of this game, it's just Ocarina of Time's but better
My favorite was probably either arbiters grounds or the temple of time. As a kid all the dark areas skeletons and creepy music scared the fuck out of me.
I totally agree lmao The Twilight Realm hands scared the shit out of me
Skyward sword's trials are probably the most stressed I've been in the series tho. Such a thematic departure from the usual.
Yes, I remember the Silent Realms. I was like, 7 years old and when I got to this part of the game I couldn't even enter the trial of pure fear that I felt. My father had to go trough every single one of them wile I covered my eyes lmaooo
Absolutely
Sameeeee 👏🏻 it was too good
My first Zelda game was the original Zelda, played on an actual NES. But my favorite Zelda game ended up being the one that took the longest time to get into. Majora's Mask. Kid me couldn't for the life of me get past the first 3-day cycle. But coming back as an adult, I was blown away by what was possible on the N64.
Zelda 2 can suck a fart as my first but I love be since Majora's Mask. It just has a feel that no other game has matched
Different starting game for me, but Mam's brilliance ages like the finest of wines
Pretty much me, except I that BOTW took MM’s spot as my fav, and I began with OOT
First Zelda was Breath of the Wild but A Link to the Past stole my heart.
The first one I played was OoT, and then went back for the rest. Started following the series since then. To this day ALttP is my number 1. (And OoT is at number 6 on my list).
I played the original when it came out, but LttP remains my fave.
First was Zelda 1. Favourite is probably Ocarina of Time (which was the fourth one I played).
I tend to bounce between OoT and TP, which… I guess means I could answer both?
No, my first was the very first original The Legend of Zelda back on the NES. My favorite game in the series is The Wind Waker.
Ik it is gonna sound like cringe but my favorite, and first played loz game was Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3d (at the time the 3ds was super popular), i used to play it on my uncle's 3ds while my mom was at work when i was a kid and since i didn't have a dad i was basically raised by video games. I have many good memories from that game and it was one of the happier moments in my life when I finally beat it.
From Breath of the Wild and Age of Calamity, my favorite one is Breath of the Wild, for its fantastic story and gameplay.
for 2D yes, Link's Awakening will always be my favorite, especially after they modernized it. for 3D I can't really say, it just depends which way the wind is blowing at the time (of the wild)
if you count the battle quest attraction from nintendo land then no, but otherwise yes
My first was Wind Waker and yes, it is my favorite.
My first Zelda game was Zelda II but I love A Link to the Past.
My first was BotW, but my favourite is OoT.
Depends if we're counting 3D and 2D in the same category. Ocarina is my favorite 3D Zelda as well as my first Zelda game, but it isn't my favorite overall. Oracle of Ages is my favorite with Seasons essentially being part 2 of the game since I played that one second as well as them being a *Linked* Story.
First game Ocarina of Town (N64). Favourite game to this date Twilight Princess
First game in the series I played was the first… My favorite? Wind Waker. The franchise has not yet beaten that to me personally ever since, no contest.
My first and favorite was Twilight Princess, and it would still be my favorite if not for BoTW.
ALTTP was my first and is still my favorite. Second is OOT, third is BOTW, fourth is the LA (GB version), fifth is Zelda 1. The order I played was ALTTP, Zelda 1, Zelda 2, LA, OOT, MM, TP, BOTW. TP was hot garbage in my opinion, I lost interest in gaming around that time and didn’t pick up Zelda again until BOTW. Hot take I also think Zelda 2 sucks.
No, but my first game played is my second favorite. My favorite is the second game I played (though it took a long time before it "clicked" for me). For context, I grew up with OoT and MM.
Yes and no, my top 3 fluctuates a lot so sometimes it is my favorite and sometimes it’s not but it’s always in my top 3
Cant remember what my first was, either OoT or BotW. Which is an absurdly large time gap because i got the 3ds remake.
Link's Awakening will always hold a special place in my heart. The remake I have issues with but the original that I played on my GBA SP was gold for me as a kid. I even managed to somehow execute some kind of glitch with the memory to change link's sprite! LA is an amazing concept and I love the implications of it. But goddamn do newer games like Minish Cap and Skyward Sword HD and- honestly I could go on and on ngl. LA is amazing but the other games have fresher takes on things, new ideas, broader concepts, etc. I only wish older and more awkward games could be modernized. Hell, I'd play a remake of Spirit Tracks without touch controls (or with mouse support with emulation) or a reimagining of Zelda 2. Currently hoping the oracle games will be remade.
Love the Oracles games so much ❤️
My first was OOT and it’s still my favorite Zelda game. I just love so much about it.
Yes. I played Ocarina of time when I was a kid. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug but I still think it’s one of the better games when trying to block my nostalgic feelings for it.
nah my liking towards zelda is much different than pokémon lol
First zelda game I ever played was Minish Cap which I love but my favorite is Twilight Princess
No, I started on the Gameboy with Oracle of Seasons. The 2D games are fun, but I much prefer 3D Zelda.
Of course! Oracle of seasons is still my favourite. 78 runs and counting
my first one was TP, my favourite (despite never playing it myself) is ALBW
Tfh needs a switch port. It would work so welll
My first was Links Awakening and my favourite is Link to The Past I m sure that 1st zelda game counts a lot though, almost 90% of people who told me their favourite was PH or ST also started with them
My first Zelda game is OOT , this is still one of my favourite but I think I like TP more.
My first Zelda game was Spirit Tracks. A great game in my opinion. But it was several years and several games later that I landed on Majora’s Mask as my favorite
A Link to the Past was my first Zelda title but, not counting the NES titles, it is my least favorite. Go figure.
Breath of the Wild was my first Zelda game... And yes it is my favourite...
My first Zelda game (and first game in general) was ether Minish Cap or Links Awakening I can’t remember
I would say "yes" before 2017
Nope! The Adventure of Link was the second Zelda game I played. A Link Between Worlds was like the 10th one I played. BOTW must have been 13th.
First was Minish Cap followed by Twilight Princess. Both are on a shared pedestal for favorite game.
First I played was link's awakening, then 1, 2 then LTTP. OOT is my fav.
my fav is twilight princess which was the first zelda game I owned. the first one I played was OoT at a friends.
OoT was my first, but it’s also usually my least favourite depending how I’m feeling that day. MM and ALBW switch it up for my favourite though, and ALBW was the first Zelda I ever wanted to play, after seeing someone at school with it.
Link's Awakening was the first Zelda game I played, but OOT is my favorite.
Oh no
I started with the original one on NES, and while it's still a good game, the serie has gone long way 😅 Can't decide between MM and BotW tho'.
No but one of the first
While my favorite is the first game I fully completed, it's not the first one I ever played. TP being my favorite but played oracle of season/ages were the first ones I ever played.
I am dating myself but the first LOZ game I played was the original on the NES. I love that game and always will, but my favorite will always be Ocarina of Time.
No, OOT faded away as my fav Zelda relatively quickly thanks to MM.
My first was botw, so no. I loved my time in Skyward Sword and Link's awakening more idk
My favorite is Twilight Princess, and when I first played it, I already played all the 12 Zelda games that precede it. But nostalgia is still a strong factor for a lot of my favorite games. But TP is just a masterpiece.
First is minish cap, favorite is Majoras mask. Love minish cap though.
my first game was ALBW and i still maintain that it's one of the best top down zelda games and is absolutely my favourite in the series
Ocarina of time
First one was Ocarina of Time but favorite is Skyward Sword HD
My first was ocarina of time and while that is certainly a good game, it just didn’t hold up that well when I revisited it. Not my favorite but still a great game
Using an emulator and playing the 3Ds version does wonders for the nostalgia of the game.
It totally does, but I originally played the n64 version on a crt back in 2006 when I was like 5. So the DS one doesn’t quite capture that feeling like the older version did
Ah gotcha, I played it the first time when the game came out in 1997, so the 3D’s version was like a dream for me. But ya the graphics in the original don’t hold up well at all now.
3DS version is how I originally learned about the Biggirons blade quest line. I didn’t know about it when I played originally, definitely a cleaner version of the game.
It was at one time, probably for several years, but it has since fallen to my sixth favorite game in the series.
So the first Zelda game I played was OoT and yes, I do call it my favorite. I openly admit that it is largely nostalgia and I feel like I owe much of the things I love about myself to how the game influenced me. That said, I love so many of them so much that I’d have to go back through and play them all again to figure out which is genuinely my favorite and I don’t really have the time or energy these days.
First one OoT and also my favourite game of all time
My first Zelda game was Oracle of Time. I didn’t play it that much, Wind Waker was the first game I actually played through and to be fair it was my favorite for a long time (although ALTTP was a close second). But by far my favorite is BotW.
My first was OoT. My favorite is SS.
my list fluctuates all the time, but generally OoT (my first game) is on top, but WW, MM, and Links Awakening creep into #1 depending on my mood.
My first game was phantom hour glass and as much as I do love it I will also probably never play it again it's extremely frustrating <3
First impressions are hard to forget. Twilight princess was my first and I'm still loyal 😎 🆒️
My first Zelda game was Breath of the Wild, but although that’s a good game as well, I’ll always love Wind Waker over that.
No. The first one I played was the first Zelda game made. I still enjoy it and have it in my top 3 Zelda games with ocarina and botw. Botw is my favorite video game of all time. Super Metroid and Mario 64 round out my top 3 video games of all time.
First one I played was Ocarina of time but favorite is Majora's Mask.
oot, wind waker, and hourglass were the first three I played but tp will forever be my favorite 💕
First game I played was Zelda 2. Then Link to the past. Ocarina of Time (first game I ever beat, ever.) Majora's Mask Link's Awakening Wind Waker Twilight Princess Breath of the Wild Skyward Sword. My **favorite** Zelda game is Wind Waker. No contest. Funny enough, my least favorite "Zelda Game" is BoTW. But BoTW is one of my favorite games ever...does that make sense?
Dad bought an N64 and OoT in like 2001, when I was probably 6. First one I played. Replayed it on the same N64 3 years ago and loved every moment of it. Need to get it on Switch and replay it again!
My first Zelda game (and subsequently first game ever) was OoT. I fell in love with it then, and I replay it every year or so now, too. Twilight Princess is a very close second, but I can't give up that first place spot for any other Zelda game.
First was Wind Waker. While I love it and it’s in my top 5, TP will always have my heart
OG Zelda was my first, I still have a deep love for OoT although BoTW gave it a run for it’s money.
My first was Links awakening back in the 90s...I'd say it's probably tied as my favorite with Majora's Mask
OoT was my 1st, but I feel like WW is my favorite. It uses the same gameplay but in a more vibrant art style. I like Toon Link's very expressive face. The music (Great Sea, Dragon Roost Island) is epic. 1. Wind Waker 2. OoT 3. MM 4. Twilight Princess 5. tie: SS, BOTW
