Ocarina of Time was the first Zelda game I ever played. As a kid, I played it at the houses of friends, speed-ran the timed demo on Smash Bros. Brawl countless times, and finally downloaded a ROM of it in high school. This is the foundation for what we know 3D Zelda games to be, but also for all modern 3D adventure games. Hyrule Field's theme has lived on eternally since, z-targeting is a core mechanic in so many games, and the water temple will always be the biggest piece of crap any game will ever have. I love it all. I highly recommend folks check out the two part manga by Akira Himekawa if you'd like to experience the story expanded upon in a great way.
