When was the last time there was such a big change between generations?

Which one is the quintessential Zelda game?

they're the same game

Is Link to the Past just Ocarina of Timed 2D or is Ocarina Linked to the Past 3D?

Dear retro-community, I'm a millennial. I find real agony in playing retro games like for example Super Mario World. It's just no fun, because the challenge is too big for me. SNES games are kinda okay, but NES games is like literal gaming hell for me (in the challange and fun department). There's nothing comfy, like playing Ratchet and Clank on PS2. I enjoy N64 games, but also PS1 games, but I'm in kind of a borderline relationship with the SNES. I enjoy all the SNES Final Fantasy titles, but get frustrated with Super Mario World, A Link to the Past or other classics. I wanted to ask, is this a 2d vs 3d thing? Because I generally find 3d games easier. For example Ocarina of Time is easier and more fun than A Link to the Past. Is it because the 3d space leaves more room to flee from attacks, is it because 3d let's you more precisely hit a target, is it because in a 3d world the enemies have it harder to catch you? On the opposite is a 2d world harder, because you can only flee in 4 directions (sometimes also lateral), is it because the enemies can hit you easier on a 2d plane, is it because you need to train really precisely to get the button action right on the 2d plane or else you lose (e.g. battletoads)?

What is with the "oot is the best zelda AND game in general of all time" meme? A Link to the Past is better in every way - it is nice and balanced, it doesn't get fucking boring as shit, and it's crisp, 2D graphics will always look better than oot's awkward 3D.

Also, besides having a superior story, alttp has way better music too - oot has such an unbearable shitty-midi tier soundtrack.

Maybe I'm just weird, but why are people so nostalgia blinded by oot?
