A friend of mine says his girlfriend doesn't like Ocarina of Time because it's a game for hipsters.

Your thoughts?

How cute is his girlfriend?

Hipsterism can be relative.

Your girlfriend is mistaken.

She judges things based on the people who like them? Sounds stupid.

Remove her ovaries before attempting sex. Don't let it breed.

It's overrated to the farthest reaches of circlejerkdom, but she's still wrong.

What if you played it when it came out and you were a kid? Is it hipster to still like the things you did when you were 8?

>> No.1683365

>one of the most popular games of all time
>regularly ranks #1 on popular lists concerning the best games of all time
>somehow, it's for hipsters

Your friend's girlfriend is a moron who likes to throw around buzzwords. If anything, it's hipster to outspokenly hate OoT.

Most of the content was optional or hidden though. That's how I felt. I didn't like it too much.

I played it when it came out and I was 21. Honestly, what adults were into it were either very hardcore gamers who had N64s in addition to our Playstations or the type of people who would be considered hipsters today.

"Man I loved Zelda when I was a kid! I can't believe a new Zelda game came out after 7 years! I went out and bought an N64 just to play it! I'm gonna get a triforce tattoo!"

I liked it but it was a little too easy and most of the bosses weren't good. Top notch graphics and music though, and one of the best sidekicks and gimmicks (shrinking) in the series. It's a shame we'll probably never see another real 2d zelda again

>> No.1683409

It's a game for children and their families.

Only shitty games can be 'games for hipsters'

Thank god I never did this. Depressing how entire series have been destroyed.

>> No.1683425

I would say that because it was never improved upon it isn't a game for hipsters. It's also in no way obscure enough to be.

I bought real life Mole Mitts because of this game. You can big a 12" deep hole in about 20 seconds. Waaayyyy faster than a shovel.

That would be Wind Waker.

>Any Zelda game
>for hipsters

Swing and a miss. The entire Zelda series is mainstream as fuck.

Not that it matters, because "hipster" is such a fucking meaningless term.

>> No.1683445

Your friend's girlfriend better be SMOKING hot because her lack of brains is appalling. The only Zelda games that could ever be considered "for hipsters" are the CDi games, and even then there's no harm in owning them just for laughs.

>> No.1683468

Video games are too mainstream for hipsters.
Any time I read "hipster" on /vr/ I interpret it as >a slightly more social neckbeard who shops at American Apparel

liked the game, but the ending was pants.

>> No.1683489

So, she doesn't like the game because people who purposefully go out of their way to like things that other people don't like like it? Okay.

yeah I know like 3 people who did this.

I'll just enjoy what I enjoy. If that makes me a hipster so be it.

Why wasn't that word already in my filter?

No matter.
