Honestly, the only people who say it's perfect are biased hardcore nintendo fans who haven't played any other games of the genre to make an objective opinion.

You think is all about nostalgia? yeah, it could be a part of it, but it's not all.

OoT was a revolutionary game for it's time, no matter if you looked at other games, or even other consoles, it was a perfect execution of all the things a videogame have to had to make it an instant classic. And it's an accepted fact of the industry of videogames. Not just the opinion of nostalgic fans.

Skyward at the other side, it's an ok-fun game, but does not reach that level of a classic for these times that are running. It's what people fail to understand when they try to compare 2 games with an age difference of more than 10 years, you have to take everything to count, the context, the time, the way the games were played.

Not just,"oh OoT is old and Skyward is new, so now Skywartd is better."

I think SS will prove to be one of the most impactful to the series in terms of gameplay and hopefully storytelling. Yeah the jump to 3D play of OoT will be hard to top, but SS freshened up things ALOT with upgradable items, revisiting/reinventing old environments, and finally progressing beyond some of the stale patterns that had lingered a little too long past their prime from OoT.
But fyi your opinion is probably the common one, so i don't think those who prefer SS to OoT are just enamored by "recentness." That may be an accusation for those who prefer TP, but skyward sword distinguishes itself as something new and different. Not necessarily better, but not worse, imo.

Never said that. It's by no means perfect, and Ocarina isn't either. There's no such thing as a perfect game. But both games are exceptionally created games from the same team, who have squeezed out every bit of power from the hardware they had to work with just to fit both games in.

I personally never really compared the two, but obviously you seem determined to tell everyone how mediocre it is.

In the end, it all comes down to opinion. You keep yours, and I'll keep mine.

Have a swell day.

ooh, sorry if I sounded a bit rude, but when someone disagrees with you, even when it's just an opinion, I try to explain why I think that way, but afterall, like you said, it all comes down to it.

It might not hold a top place in my "personal" list, but it was a good game nevertheless.
