I'm very familiar with Ocarina of Time, I've watched many playthroughs, speedruns, etc, but I've never actually fully beat the game for myself, until today! Thanks to this amazing fanmade PC port and its slew of enhancement options, I was able to get rid of most if not all of the minor annoyances I had with the N64 version of the game because of its age and bring this masterpiece to the present and finally beat it!

And what a masterpiece it is. I don't even know where to start. Sure the game isn't that big by today's standards, but it still feels like a grand adventure, which is what, above all else, Zelda should strive to be. This game's story is not super complex, but it's a really good one, with lots of subtext about growing up suddenly, childhood trauma, and losing your childhood.

There's seriously so much I could say about this game, but it's all been said a million times before. Ship of Harkinian is easily the best current way to play Ocarina of Time, and I look forward to their version of Majora's Mask.
