I will say though, even though I haven't enjoyed the game all that much so far, I can see how people love it so much -- especially at the time of its release. I feel like it introduced a shitton of mechanics and concepts in a 3D game before any other did.
I think what makes the game so "poorly aged" to some is just that newer generations of people (myself included) have just gotten used to more straightforward, or walkthrough-handy video games. Thinking about it, I never really allowed myself to just sit back and figure things out *inside* the game rather than out.
All this being said, it's so crazy to me how a fairly long and complex game like this could fit on an N64 cartridge, especially since my standards of an N64 game were originally just Mario 64. Not dunking on that game either, it's just a simple 3D Mario game with not much emphasis on story or characters.
Like the fact Zora’s Domain stays frozen for no good reason and a lot of the main areas have like nothing to do - like I get that this was like one of the first 3D adventure games of its kind but as I get older I just start to notice these oddities. The game was amazing to me as a kid (still is now) and I am not from the generation when 3D games were new so I find it even more impressive that it put me in such a state of awe even though I could have easily turned to newer more advanced games instead.
