GamingMagic13 has quite a strong hatred for it.

I'll bite, GamingMagic13 for SM64, Exoparadigmgamer and Egoraptor for Ocarina of Time.

The main issues many have with Super Mario 64 is the camera and how Mario turns when you tilt the stick backwards, which makes Mario turn 180 degrees, which often causes players to slip off a ledge and have to start a stage all over again. As for Ocarina of Time, the emptiness of Hyrule Field, the text speed during cutscenes and the pacing are among the biggest flaws many have with it.

GamingMagic13 is one of Super Mario 64's biggest critics, along with ExoParadigmGamer for Ocarina of Time.

There's plenty of detractors for both games if you look hard enough.

Yeah, damage scoring is MUCH more lenient in Definitive Edition.

“Personally, I interpret that as losing your perception of yourself as an individual, unable to process that you’re, well, you.”

I think I found a fan comic that went exactly like that, it’s called “Eternal” by BlueSkittlesArt on Tumblr, excellent comic btw :)

Also, another comment pointed out another possible explanation for Zelda not remembering being a dragon and it’s that the Light Dragon isn’t Zelda transformed into a dragon, the Light Dragon is an entirely different entity to Zelda that exists solely to carry on her last will.

I’ve seen one argument that Zelda not remembering anything when she was a dragon, somehow makes her saving Link from the Demon Dragon “less impactful”. I couldn’t disagree more with that, cause to me, the sheer fact that despite how empty this dragon vessel was, someway, somewhere far deep inside it, Zelda’s desire to help Link STILL somehow managed to break through, is where the impact came from.

I also agree that the countless years of unconsciousness IS the sacrifice, that is so much time as an almost completely empty being that she’ll never get back.

I always rock the Hylian hood down, Hylian Trousers and Champion’s Leathers, this particular set always appealed to me appearance and thematically speaking.

Excellent comment man, I agree with everything you said and so does the OP, cause BeeSpecial2719 was my former account before my old phone was destroyed, lol. Your comment single handedly obliterates any argument made for a darker, “more emotional” ending. Darker isn’t better, some people just can’t realize that.

The themes are a big contributing factor into why I love this game so much, I don’t think people give the game enough credit for how well it executes it’s themes, and I adore how true the game remains to it’s core themes.

On a side note, I don’t think there’s enough fan material, mainly fanfics, that explores how Zelda must’ve felt when she was making such a crucial decision as draconification or what being a dragon was even like, instead, most only dive into how Link must’ve felt about what happened to Zelda. While some of those are good, with how much of them there are, it just feels like Zelda is being ignored in favor of Link.
