The dungeon design still works flawlessly for this. What Nintendo serves up, or rather served up back then, is impressive. Especially the last two thirds as adult Link are truly exciting. Something magical is always happening. For me, "Ocarina of Time" is no longer a masterpiece. But the fact that I even had to think about it shows how well this game has aged—and how brilliant it must have been back then.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was a fantastic game in its day, and thanks to its consistently excellent gameplay design and very good pacing, it still holds up remarkably well today. The improvements here are relatively subtle, consisting mainly of a few quality-of-life features and a rather basic quest log. We have no real complaints about these additions. The only questionable aspect is the graphical update, particularly when it comes to the character designs. We also would have liked to see more substantial new content, as the Monster Arena alone simply isn't enough. Nevertheless, we would definitely welcome the same treatment for Majora's Mask.

As for remakes, I'm happy to say that this one checks a lot of boxes with its updated mechanics, score, and gameplay. Few games have such a reputation, yet even three decades later, people still talk about it.
