Why does this game have such a one of a kind aesthetic? Post games with any aesthetics that can be traced to Majoras Mask

It’s clearly distinct from OOT. OOT feels medival and way more grounded compared to MM.

I love the intro area of MM, the fact you can't go back there makes it more mysterious. It has a really unique atmosphere.

MM only achieves its atmosphere by being the OoT followup with some recycled assets. Half the effect it achieves relies on your familiarity with the minor characters and intricacies of OoT.

Its not exactly unique to Zelda to point out that some games have one of a kind aesthetics, you just notice it more because everyone on this board has played them or knows enough to shitpost that they have.

>> No.10708320

I don't think they're one of a kind and I find them visually unpleasant at their best

>> No.10708326

>>10708320
This thread has shown some good examples but purely visually, not many games push saturated hues to that extent

Majora's Mask is 100% referencing Dr. Mario. The silhouette of the masks of the children look very similar to the three viruses.

Yes but the characters all play differently and the paths and bosses are slightly different so it's not that bad.

I was pointing out the coincidence of the similar landscape, despite the developers of Dr. Mario (NES) being completely different than the devs that made Zelda Majora's mask.

at least 40% of its assets are new, and most of the other stuff is re-used either cleverly
